Pages won't install on MacBook Air

I have purchased Pages.  The app store keeps giving me the error "try downloading in Purchases"  In Purchases I recieve the note "an error has occured."

I had a similar problem.
After 3 attempts, and almost 16Gb of download, I went to my local Apple Store and had them put the Mavericks installer on a USB stick.

    I purchased keynote, numbers, and pages when i bought my macbook air in late september. the december update will not load because it says i do not own the software and returns an error messgae 100. i have read manuals and looked over the web but i cannot figure out how to get this software update to identify that i do own these three pieces of software. they are installed and usable. any ideas would be appreciated before i call apple support.
    This is my first mac so i am still learning...
    thanks

    First, make sure you are logged into the App Store with the same AppleID that you used to purchase the apps.
    If that is not it, look in the App Store under Purchases. Are they there?
    If not, go into your account in App Store and click the link to show hidden purchases.
    If they are still not there, use the support link in the App Store.
    If they do show up, copy all the apps to an external drive, then remove them from your Mac. Go to the App Store, Purchases, and install from there.

  • Why has iCloud stopped working with Pages 5.1 on my MacBook Air?

    Hi all,
    Since upgrading to Pages 5.1 on my MacBook Air, the option to open or save documents to iCloud has vanished. The iCloud sync is working fine on my iPad and iPhone, but I can't even see my iCloud documents and folders. Before, I used to have an iCloud button on the "Open File" dialog, but that's not there any more. I've attached a screenshot of the dialog.
    I've tried signing out of iCloud on the MacBook, removing the Mobile Documents folder, and signing back into iCloud again, but Pages stays the same. I should add that Numbers seems to have the same problem, but other iCloud features all seem to be working ok.
    Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is it even a problem, or am I just being dense? For reference, I'm using Mavericks (OS X 10.9.1 13B42) and the latest version of iWork.
    Thanks for any help you can give,
    Matt

    Sorry folks, as soon as I posted, the answer posted here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23300934#23300934 solved my problem.

  • Can't install on Macbook Air

    Hi adobe, i can't install some adobe products.
    These includes Photoshop, creative clouds and any trial!
    i already contacted the chat.
    OS X v10.8.4
    hd details: SSD 128GB:
      Cap:    120,34 GB (120.338.849.792 bytes)

    I translated some word because i have the Dutch version of my iOS.
    for some reason no Adobe product other than flash and the other known ones won't install on a Case-sensitive harddrive.
    Can this be solved without resetting the entire stuff?
    Or is it possible for adobe to make a update on this?
    I don't understand why you would make these restrictions on installation!
    Edit:
    If i need to reinstall my entire stuff, how do i do that with a macbook air which hasn't got a cd/dvd drive?
    I also guess it deletes my entire HD?
    Any help is well accepted!
    i would love to buy/use the PS trial to see wheter i want to buy it or not.

    No, Adobe software doesn't support case-sensitive drives:
    Error "Case-sensitive drives not supported" or similar install error | Mac OS
    You will have to fully reformat/ reinitialize your system and reinstall OSX from scratch. And it's not an enforced restriction, Apple's APIs for this are simply too unreliable and Adobe doesn't use them.

  • Proxy settings won't save on Macbook Air (Moutain Lion 10.8.5)

    Hi -- would love some help. I've been trying to configure proxies on my Macbook Air (Web Proxy and Secure Web Proxy) in order to connect to a specific network, but every time I make any changes in the proxy pane, and click OK, the changes are lost when I come back to it. I have been unable to connect to any networks that require a proxy. Would love some help! I'm quite puzzled. Anyone having the same problem?
    Thanks!

  • Wifi won't turn on macbook air

    ok.. somethins really messed up.. it's a 2012 model but when after i've tried installing a new SSD card, it won't let me turn wifi on (boot from external Hard drive) also, SSD isn't showing up...

    It sounds like you opened up your MacBook Air and tried to install a new solid state drive in the machine.  Is that right?  if so, you have voided your warranty, as the MacBook Air is not supposed to be opened by customers.

  • IPhone 4s Won't Connect to MacBook Air

    I have the iPhone 4s and it won't connect to my MacBook Air. I have reset my phone, cleared it, and restored it back to factory settings and still nothing. I plugged in my 2 iPods as well and they also won't connect. It's important that this will work soon because I am getting the iPhone 5 in a few days. Please someone help me. Thank You.

    Just to be sure we're on the same page..   You connect the iphone via USB cable to your mac's USB port, then invoke itunes on the mac.  In the left panel of itunes, under the "Devices" section, does the iphone not show up after a short while?
    What OSX version is on the mac?  What version of itunes (should be 11.1 in order to communicate with iOS 7)?

  • Keynote from Powerbook G4 won't open on Macbook Air

    Apple wants fifty bucks to answer this question so I thought someone else may be willing to help. I have a Keynote I use my Powerbook (10.4)for, but I use a Macbook Air(10.6.6) for everything else. I'm going on a trip and don't want to lug both. I bought the right cable for the projector hook up but when I moved the doc over it won't open on the intel processor machine. What do I need?
    Thanks in advance,

    Do you have the same version of Keynote on both? I have never done this with Keynote, but I just did with Pages this morning. Created a document on my old G4 at home and opened it this morning on my Intel iMac at work and had no problem.
    There are a few things you would want to make sure of. First like I said above, you will need the same version of Keynote on both, or at least a newer version on the MacBook Air then is on the Powerbook. Second, make sure that all the fonts are on both computers. And finally, make sure that on the Powerbook, you have check the Preference button to include Pictures and Movies in the file.

  • Installing on Macbook Air 4,2 - why can I not get this done?

    I am trying so desperately to install Arch and dual-boot on my Macbook Air.  I'm not an Arch noob - I promise.  I've installed and loved arch on my old laptop a couple years back but that was not a mac. 
    I've been here but all it says is that this "works out of the box".  Unfortunately, I can't get that far.
    I flashed Archboot to my USB thumb stick using DD and booted into it using ReFind.  I can't remember what the first option was, but I believe it was Arch-something with EFI.  I chose that and I got an error message: 
    Failed to open file:  boot\intel-ucode.img
    Trying to load files to higher address
    Failed to open file: boot\intel-ucode.img
    So, I chose the second option which says (I'm sorry, I'm in my OSX right now so I'mg telling this from memory) something like Arch-something without EFI.  Then I got to the actual install console.  I created some partitions using cgdisk and chose my packages but they all failed to install due to a dependency missing.  I'm really sorry I don't know what that error was.  After I post this I will go back and try again and see if I Can get a screen shot.
    Anyhow - This is nothing like my install was on my old PC laptop and I feel like I'm not even sure if I'm going down the right path.  Does anyone know of a youtube video which shows this process?  Honestly, as much as I've used Arch in the past, I truly feel like a dumbass right now but I'm willing to risk my reputation for a rig that runs the sweetest Linux there is.
    Thanks -
    Whatever you need, logs, etc... no problem - but tell me where to get them because I'm not sure how to with my system in limbo like this.

    Alright, only problem is that the beginner's guide talks about entering things at a prompt - like "# sgdisk --zap-all /dev/sda".  i'm not at a prompt.  I'm in the GUI Archboot console.  Also, I don't see instructions on which partitions to create, what size to make them, etc..  and, I still don't know why the original option in Archboot failed - the one that prompted me that it could not find boot/intel-ucode/img.  It's not that I haven't read the documentation and it's also not that I'm too stupid to figure it out - I feel like I'm on the wrong track. For example, the Beginner's Guide doesn't even mention instructions for Archboot - which is what I'm using.  By the way, thank you for your response.  I don't want to sound ungrateful

  • Did you have buggy Mavericks issue after installing on Macbook Air Mid 2012?

    Before I have upgraded my OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.3 to Mavericks 10.9 it runs so smoothly and no issues or hanging that I encounter. But just this morning when I installed Mavericks, I have the following issues:
    1.) When I was adding a book(pdf and epud files) in iBook, the Finder malfunctioned, coz when I browse the books to it's location so I can add some more again, the Sidebar icons disappeared and only the names left. And when I go to the location of the files using Finder, the content is nowhere to be found, just a symbol on the window’s status bar that it is loading or busy on something.
    2.) When I go to the Launchpad, when I scroll to left and right to find the apps I’m looking using the touchpad, it's not as smooth as before. It tends to halt on sliding to the other groups of apps, seems like there’s a friction stopping it from sliding smoothly all the way to the next group of apps.
    3.) Updating the Apps from App Store seems cumbersome like the iPhoto and iMovie, coz when the internet fails or drops its signal for a while or so, you go back and download everything again, and when you hover the mouse to see the progress of the downloaded app, it shows for example 22mb of 1gb then shifted to 300mb of 1gb then back to 22mb of 1gb then back again. It’s not accurate and going berserk.
    4.) And I don't know if it is just me, but the screen profile have changed a bit coz the red color of the Power Point icon seem too red and everything that has a hint of red color seems exaggerated, it’s too bright red. I'm just not sure it might be the GUI style of the Mavericks. . .
    Anyway, have any of you experienced these kinds of issues on your Macbook Air Mid 2012?
    Hopefully this could be fixed and Apple would seed an update in no time.

    Even on my MacBook Pro Haswell (2013) 15 inch retina with a GT 750 2gb.
    The Things in Mavericks that really make me :
    1. The Launchpad is buggy when i scroll to the left or right... sometimes it doesn't even respond at all.
    2. Safari and Other Apps Like AppStore freez sometimes, and i need to force quit everytime, because its not           responding.
    3. Bootcamp Windows 8.1 <---- NOT 8 Support (Bad Keyboard- Facetime camera- drivers,
        Icons (brightness, sound) are ugly on retina screen) + GPU Drivers i can't update (maybe that's normal).
    4. iTunes is very SLOW when Scrolling the Albums (i know its 2880x1800 and that's heavy for GPU) But it's just     not a good 'Experience'.
    5. Gaming its realy good on this MacBook, but please make the drivers better, i know this GT 750 GPU can do           better.

  • HT5634 Boot Camp support drivers install unsupported MacBook Air 11inch

    I successfully installed WIndows 7 64bit from a USB on my 2013 MacBook Air 11inch and it seems to function properly. When I tried to install WIndows support software I keep getting "Boot Camp x64 is unsupported on this compter model" message.  The Boot Camp support site states that this install is supported using Boot Camp 5 (which is the version I used). I've found a few workarounds on-line that mention doing something via the disc in the CD/DVD drive, but I didn't go that route so I am unsure how to proceed. Anyone have any guesses on how to make this work?

    This sounds weird to me. I just installed 64x on your model macbook air at work today and everything went off with out a hitch. Perhaps you could try to redownload the drivers from boot camp assistant? I have had issues occasionally with boot camp drivers and redownloading usually works out for me.

  • IPhone 4 address book won't sync with MacBook Air

    I've been Googlin' my butt off, and called support three times (in which they won't help me because they say it's an iPhone issue)... Anyway, just purchased a MacBook Air; and my iPhone contacts will not sync with the address book.
    Any help would be amazing.  Thank you very much!

    Hey,
    So I kept looking for another answer and found this answer in another thread:
    "It is called "sync" for the reason it not called a transfer.  It wants and is designed to "sync" make each other match.  If it deleted all on the phone it is because you just had zero contacts in the address book on the computer (which on first sync is considered master copy).  If you put one dummy contact into address book on computer then try to sync it will see it needs to "merge" to get the sync process coordinated."
    I tried it out and it worked.  I originally already had one contact in my address book, but it was me and apparently I don't count as a human being, so I added the dummy contact and it worked after I clicked 'Merge'. Hope it works for you too.

  • Leopard cannot be installed on MacBook Air

    I have not been able to install Leopard on my MacBook Air because of an error message "Mac OS X cannot be installed on "Macintosh HD", because this disk cannot be used to start up your computer." I have gotten this message when trying to install Leopard via remote disk. I used the disk utility to run a disk repair and no problems were found. I am not sure how to resolve this problem.

    Do you have the Ethernet attachment for the MBA? If so, the Install will go much faster.
    1. Insert the Snow Leopard Install Disk into the remote computer (if the remote computer is not running Leopard, first insert the original disk that came with your MBA and install the Remote Disk app, if you haven't already).
    2. Attach by Ethernet cable.
    3.Turn off Airport on both computers, and activate Remote Install OSX on both computers. This is found in Applications/Utilities. Follow the instructions.
    4. ON Restart hold down the Option key.
    Sorry if you've done this already, but if you haven't, give it a try.
