Please Apple, let us keep pages as it was...

Installing mavericks brings pages 5.0 along somehow.
PAGES 5.0 IS A TOTAL DISASTER.
Worst, you can't do anything about it! I have several computers i use in office, home, all shynced, made the mistake of updating to Mavericks and pages come along on one of them, easy to open an old pages document, but then, you don't have any means to get back, it saves the document automatically and you can't open it anymore with pages 4, you can recover old versions because you'll need to open the document for that. So you just lost your document.
Pages 5.0 lost many of its functionalities, the interface is fuzzy, you can't find a simple "Delete page", no facing pages, no linked text boxes, and the import from previous version is a joke.
As a dedicated Apple power user since the emerging of Mac OS X, I feel disapointed, defrauded, angry because somebody is playing with my work. Ivested a lot on pages, have many publications written in Pages i can't use now.
I kindly demand Apple the right to use Pages 4.0, which I bought, and the ability to recover the work losses caused by that DISASTER you call pages 5.0.

Unfortunately, many of my documents (100 plus page documentation!!!)  have already been destroyed.   The ASSumption is that the user will open the document through PAGES.   When the default double click in Finder opens the file in the wrong version, it's too late.  Closing the document automatically saves it.  (Due to the other stupid quirk of Pages.... no save, save as, and don't save function - only save by overwriting the file.)
By the time we found out that pages 4.xx was still on our machines, all of our primary documents had been screwed up beyond repair.
No rulers?  No inspector?   Screwed up page views?  Lost templates?   No RTF format for documents???..... Good grief, they should have told us it was a completely different program.
I don't have time to continuely retrain my staff everytime Apple wants to Maverick something?!!   scroll up is now scroll down???   Safari's "open in a new window" and "open in a new tab" are backwards?   Why such stuid changes?   Leave it the X#%#C ALONE!!!

  • How do I set up a new Apple ID and iTunes account for my daughter, but let her keep the current content of my iTunes account?

    How do I set up a new Apple ID and iTunes account for my daughter's MacBook, but let her keep the current content of my iTunes account? (We currently share the same Apple ID and iTunes account). Hope someone can help... Thanks

    Discussions on using purchases from multiple AppleIDs in one iTunes library - https://discussions.apple.com/message/19543804
    As I mentioned earlier, the main time when this becomes an issue is if you need to do something involving associating a computer with a particular AppleID.  Careful management of your collection should minimize this situation.
    iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 -  In connection with, "When you turn on iTunes Match or Automatic Downloads, or when you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID." "Your Apple ID can have up to 10 devices and computers (combined) associated with it. Each computer must also be authorized using the same Apple ID. Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days." - Additionally instructions for "Removing an associated device or computer from an Apple ID"
    So the first account is really "yours" and you are setting her up with her own account?  It helps to know this because if both are "hers" then there isn't an issue with her having full access to both accounts.  If in 10 years she moves 2000 miles away and she is pretty much independent then you may not want her to have full access to your AppleID just so she can authorize a device.

  • HT2534 I have already created an Apple ID. I tried to sign in on iTunes, but it said that i have not yet used this ID on iTunes yet. It then directed me to the billing page. There was no option "none" for the credit card payment. It won't let me continue.

    I have already created an Apple ID. I tried to sign in on iTunes, but it said I have not yet used this ID with iTunes. It then directed me to the billing page. There was no option "none" for the credit card payment. It will not let me continue without entering one in.

    - Add a credit card or other payment method like redeeming an iTunes gift card.
    - Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

  • Please advise where is the page that lets me choose what I share with Mozilla / Firefox is.

    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/new/desktop/privacy-and-security
    Occasionally my computer seems to go off on a frolic of its own - lights on, whirring, very slow to respond to my instructions, etc. Recently I noticed a message in the bottom right corner of my screen along the lines 'Choose what I share' There was an explanation that Mozilla sent Firefox information [or vice versa] and a claim this somehow made my life better. I thought I would choose what I share but the message disappeared and I have been unable to find the relevant page.
    Please advise where is the page that lets me choose what I share with Mozilla / Firefox is.

    OK a bit more detail. I have tried to avoid or explain jargon. Note the blue bits in the text are clickable [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperlink links] to other documents/sites
    Feedback:
    If you use the input/feedback button the information you send will be public, but that is the point of sending it.
    That is were you send short comments about Firefox. More than one way of doing this:
    * a button on the browser
    * the ''[Suggestion Box]'' option on some of these pages
    * or the link
    ** https://input.mozilla.org/en-US/feedback/
    An example of some of the public comments

    Crashes:
    You will need to send that information if you wish to get help with crashes. The email address is optional (and I do not think it is public).If you file a bug however you will need to provide an email address that will be publicly displayed
    [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crash_%28computing%29 Crashes] are when Firefox suddenly breaks and stops working entirely. If you are lucky it may restart again but it may continue to crash or be totally unusable.
    [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_bug Bugs] in this context are the discussions by the experts fixing or modifying Firefox, often initiated by a bug report from an end user.
    If you need help with your crash Mozilla needs some techie information about the crash before they can do anything about it or help you.
    [[Send performance data to Mozilla to help improve Firefox |Telemetry]]:
    At present, I think, you will only see the information yourself if you submit.
    This is a feature that send some basic information about Firefox performance. It was introduced after it was realised Firefox was doing some things very badly, but the full extent of the problem had not been quickly identified.
    Firefox Health Report:
    Experimental feature still in development
    Aimed at helping the end user fix Firefox.
    You will find all sorts of information in these blogs

    but unfortunately they do contain jargon and are written for those already interested in the subject, who know something of the features of Firefox and related software.

  • The internet pages don't display properly I'm using osx10.3.3, yahoo for example asks me to update, but I cant find out how to as the apple store just keeps sending back to the same page with no down load option...do i need to up date or is it just my mac

    What Mac model do you have? You might be able to upgrade the OS to Tiger 10.4 or Leopard 10.5.
    Even browsers for Tiger 10.4 will get the update message.
    You could try a newer browser than Safari, which is obsolete, by downloading Firefox v2.0.0.20 at http://www.oldapps.com/mac/firefox.php

    I just got my mac a month ago so go easy on me but I was just working with the pages that was already on it, and then today I know it updated, and now I am unable to open a lot of my documents!:(  Idk what you mean by the icloud version lol sorry! As for the version, when I open pages from my apps and click 'about' it says version 5.1? And when I open the document it just goes grey and kind of blinks and doesnt open? No error message or any indication of why it will not open now when I for sure have opened it in the past! Andddd for the OS X I think it is 10.9.1 ??

  • HT204409 I keep seeing "change my router" as a solution to wifi problems, I cannot change hotel routers! ***, please Apple, I have been a big fan but this is crazy, only my Apple products are not working on wifi!

    This wifi issue is bad, all other products I have work fine, but my iPad (fully update, re-installed, re-booted, etc...) will not work. Time to return it and switch to another vendor? Many of the solutions I see are change your router. I cannot change a Hotel router, a companies router! Please Apple fix this ASAP prem price and not working!

    the iPad should work with most wifi routers.  There are some old wife routers it may not.  Your ipad coiuld have a hardware problem.
    Does it work with some routers?  Have you hung out in the lobby of the hotel and asked if other ipad users are having a problem.  What does the hotel staff say? 
    You could carry a mini wifi router with you and connect the mini via ethernet cable.
    Find the make and model of the wifi router.  We can check if other ipad owners are having problem.
    a 4g solution.
    I recently signed up for FreedomPop.com. http://www.freedompop.com
    FreedomPop provides 500meg of free 4g cellular data per month!  You do need to buy their wireless device at $39.  Your machine needs wifi capability. There are ways of getting bonus megs.  One gig of addition data costs $10 per month.  I used about 15megs per hour of lite internet surfing.
    When signing up, you need to be careful with your selections.  On some screens, the free option is a small link below the large button.  FreedomPop employs a Pavlovian Dog < Operant conditioning > thing of getting you used to clicking on the large button then they change the large button to a paid add-on.
    Once you setup your account, you need to go to your account options screen to turn off automatic paid data download once you exceed your quota.
    The performance seems a little slower than my DSL connection.

  • Forgot my apple ID , and need a hint on my associated email so i can sent a reset password , and the worst thing in apple ID forgot password page that if you typed any apple id even if its wrong it gives you that email has been sent !! how come !

    forgot my apple ID , and need a hint on my associated email so i can sent a reset password , and the worst thing in apple ID forgot password page that if you typed any apple id even if its wrong it gives you that email has been sent !! how come !!
    so please if anyone got any idea of how to get the hint on the mail ( i used to remember there is a hint )

    If all you did was rename your ID, you can go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted, then sign back in with your renamed ID.  Deleting the account only deletes the account and any data you are syncing with iCloud from your phone, not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts, your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.
    If, however, you are changing to a new account with a new ID, choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted.  Then choose Merge when you sign into the new account and turn your iCloud syncing back on to upload your data to the new account.
    Before deleting the account, save you photo stream photos to your camera roll (tap Edit, tap all the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll).

  • Why is apple letting MYSPACE distribute its quicktime patches?

    so there is the huge virus that is spreading to myspace users via apple's quicktime. I understand that things have vulnerabilities but why is apple letting a social networking site distribute its patches? Its causing a whole brew haha haha on myspace with an anti quicktime backlash, everyone is removing quicktime for fear of catching a virus....
    http://news.com.com/MySpaceto+Apple+Fix+thatworm/2100-7349_3-6141031.html
    Apple said it has provided MySpace with the temporary fix. The computer company said it would be up to the social-networking site to offer it to users. MySpace has not responded to an inquiry from CNET News.com as to when the temporary solution would be available to users.

    Ever since I installed the My Space patch for Quick Time last week I've been getting Norton Internet Security "subscription expired" notices when I still have over a year on my subscription. Have you, or anyone else, heard of this internet security problem happening due to this patch, or do you think this is just a coincidence? Thank you, Joanne

    First off it's a worm not a virus........Not to worry
    it's not going to blow up your computer. Besides
    viruses are really not a mac issue. How many have
    there been in the last 20 years. three, four, five,
    six ten, four? And how many for windows users. We''ll
    just say a billion.
    Please read the URL you supplied. And you'll know
    what's happening.

  • Apple Time Capsule Keeps Dropping Internet

    My Apple Time Capsule keeps dropping internet or having extremely slow internet. If I run a speed test I am getting 90+mbs. What occurs is if I try to load a page, there will be a very long delay and sometimes the page will eventually load, other times it won't. When I try to stream something from youtube, If I can get to the page of the video, it won't have an issue. When I hard wire to my modem, I don't have an issue at all. Only hardwired through the router or using wireless through the router does this occur. The light on the router never has turned amber and the link light on my modem is constantly flashing. The only thing that will occur is that the Apple Airport utility keeps connecting and disconnecting from my modem.
    I've reset the router and modem. I've restored the router to factory settings and reset up my network, all to no success.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Thinking I'll replace the motorola with a Cisco DPC3010
    You may find it is not much better..
    I do think the problem is more on the Apple side..
    If you are a tech.. let me suggest you make yourself up a 100 mbit (ie use only the two pairs) crossover cable..
    If that does not work.. try reverse polarity..ie in the ethernet on one end swap + and - .. It is an issue that has cropped up before where ethernet is just wired wrongly.. and it doesn't fail completely but becomes unreliable. 
    BTW the hardware reliability of the new AC version apple routers.. is definitely on the bottom of the apple list.
    I bought an AC TC and the first one had this WAN port issue from day one.. when I replaced it after a week (it died completely which was convenient).. the second one has been much better).
    The modems I have heard that works well is the zoom or ubee..
    Using another router doesn't need to be expensive.. you can still stick to the apple in bridge.. you only need a router that does routing..
    And the TP-Link can be flashed to gargoyle.. a hugely superior firmware btw.. solid .. reliable and it will track usage and do a lot of stuff well beyond Apple's keen.
