Prohibitory Sign in Pages document

Hello~ I created a table in Pages and somehow a gray prohibitory sign appeared in the table, on each page. I am unable to make any changes to the document now. Please help!

Kim,
I know that you said you created the table in Pages. Can you describe the table for us and characterize the document that it is in?

When I sign in to the Adobe Reader XI (which is the only option that I have to open a pdf document, I will sign in to the Adobe ID sign-in page. After I do this, the "Convert To" box goes "gray" and I am unable to convert the document I have selected. It was working great for the first week that I used it, but now it doesn't give me the converting option. I am very frustrated as I have done nothing to change anything, and I was thinking this was so great...now I am just pulling out my hair and do not have the option of calling anyone since no phone numbers are listed. I am VERY busy and do not have time to sit and wait over a half an hour to "chat", which I tried to do yesterday. All I want to do is very simply, convert pdfs to Word. I have paid for this and am not getting any help. I am not very savvy when it comes to Adobe this program and Adobe that program...I feel I am being scammed as I do not get simple answers for something that appeared was going to be simple. You can't even call customer service to talk to someone live to help walk you through.

Hello Kathie,
Sorry for the inconvenience that has caused to you.
Please let me know if you have tried converting any other PDF to word with Reader.
Alos, please sign up at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/" using your Adobe ID credentials. Click on 'ExportPDF' tab and upload the PDF that you want to convert to Word.
Let me know if this converts fine.
Hope to hear from you.
regards,

When I go to the iCloud site on my iPad2 I don't get the log on rather 3 prompts one of which is to install iCloud. iCloud is correctly installed. I was able to sign in in the past to get a pages document

You cannot use iCloud.com on a mobile device. It is meant to be accessed on a computer - not the iPad.
There is almost no reason at all why you need to access the account from the iPad since you can do everything on the iPad itself. If you update a Pages document on the iPad it syncs to the cloud automatically so that you can access it from your Mac using a web browser. If you revise the file on the Mac and upload it to your icloud.com account - the file appears with the revisions in the Pages app on the iPad. There is no need to download the file from icloud.com - it just appears in Pages automatically when you upload the file on the Mac.

Can not add function to pages-document created with Applescript

If I create new document using the GUI (New document) I can place the cursor within any table-cell, type "=" (equal sign) and f.e. "2+2" which will result in a cell showing a "4".
If I create a document with Applescript, I can not add new functions (neither by typing = nor by using Insert >> Function (may be different, I have German version here). Already existing functions (which already were in the template) can still be used and work as expected but can not be altered.
Any idea?
I use Pages '08, Version 3.03
Code I used to create the document:
tell application "Pages"
launch
make new document at front with properties {template name:templateName}
# Angebotsnummer ins Dokument schreiben
tell body text of front document
make new paragraph at after paragraph 1 with data angebotsNr
set paragraph style of paragraph 2 to "Überschrift"
end tell
# Datei abspeichern
set dateiName to missing value
repeat until dateiName is not equal to missing value
set dateiName to text returned of (display dialog "Datei Name:" default answer angebotsNr & "_" & kundenName) as text
end repeat
save front document in angebotsOrdner & dateiName
end tell

I apologize but the given script can't run.
The variable templateName is undefined.
The variable angebotsNr is undefined too.
About the described behavior, it's a bug which I never discover before.
It's always striking in Pages '09.
Here is the report which I filed :
Bug ID# 8704270
Summary:

How can I retrieve my pages documents from another account in the iCloud

I was using pages in my ipad. Then I bought a Mac Pro and signes with a new iCloud account. In order to sync it with my ipad I deleite the previous iCloud account from the divise and started it with the new account. I previously choose to keep all the documenta before deleten the account.
Now when opened pages I can not see any of my previous doccuments

You'll need to copy the Pages documents from the old iCloud account to the new one. To do this, go to iCloud.com from your Mac and sign into the old account. Launch Pages beta and confirm that your documents are still there. Assuming they are, select them, then click the gear icon on the menu bar and choose Download Documents and choose the Pages format. This will download copies of the documents to your Mac. Drag the downloaded documents to your desktop and double-click on them to extract them from the .zip files. Next, sign out on iCloud.com and sign back into your new iCloud account. Launch Pages beta in the new account, then drag and drop the documents from your desktop to the Pages beta window to upload them to the new account. You can now access the documents from devices signed into your new account.

I reloaded my old iWorks 08 to my iMac's new hard drive. With a new Pages document, I can't see the cursor. You can type in text but it is in white only. Any thoughts?

Hi. I lost my iMac's hard drive and had a new one installed. I reloaded my old iWorks 08 software and then transferred my Pages documents from a portable HD to the iMac. The files open but the original text in them (they are journals) are in white against the white background. Plus I can't see any sign of the cursor. I can hi-lite the text and change its colour but never to black. Plus the photos I inserted along side the text are barely visible, as if they had been badly faded.
Any thoughts on this? Many thanks.
Richard

Richard,
You must run Software Update and bring your old iWorks 08 to the latest release for compatibility with the current OS.

Pages documents not syncing correctly

I have the updated versions of the various Pages apps on both my iPad, iPhone, and MacBook (which I have updated to Mavericks for the last several months). I recently created a document in Pages on my Mac and today I tried to find it on my mobile devices and it wasn't there. I then checked on my Mac and it was not showing in the cloud but I did find it in my documents folder on my Mac. I had created this particular document from a user template, so I tried creating a regular old document, labeled it "testing.pages", and saved it. It too did NOT appear in the Cloud on my MacBook although I did find it locally in documents. There seems to be something screwy going on with documents created in Pages on the Mac in that they are not showing up in the cloud at all, not on the Mac or on the mobile devices. I am using Pages version 5.2 and when I access Pages by going to icloud.com it's showing as a Beta version (????) along with the other iWork apps.
Help!

Hello Lucy,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with adding Pages documents to iCloud from your MacBook.
First, I recommend verifying you are signed into iCloud and that Documents & Data is check in System Preferences > iCloud.
Pages Help for Mac - Use iCloud with Pages
http://help.apple.com/pages/mac/5.2/#/tan79be8e93
If this is enabled, try moving the documents you created to iCloud using these steps after opening the document:
Change a document’s location
Choose File > Move To (from the File menu at the top of your computer screen).
Choose a new location from the Where pop-up menu, then click Move.

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Macbook 2010 won't boot - flashing question mark, prohibitory sign then Apple icon

Okay so some of this is my fault. We'll get to that later.
A few months back this Macbook my uncle gave me (without the Mac OS X Installer DVDs it came with) failed to boot - displaying the spinning gear/Apple icon/grey screen so many others have experienced.
I've done everything that could be done without the Installer DVDs - reset the PRAM, the SMC, attempt to go into Safe Mode (failed - only displays the progress bar until it fills up then back to the grey screen)
I've also done fsck -fy and it would always return to either "FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED" so I'd run it again to receive the result "The volume Impala appears to be okay", but whenever I would hit "reboot" it's like nothing ever happened.
I got a hold of a(n illegal) copy of someone else's Installer DVDs from the net - not so I could install that but so I could load DiskUtitlity from a bootable flash drive to transfer files to my external HD by the restore option in DiskUtility - worked for a bit (ran verify permissions, repair disk permissions, the whole shebang) but then failed, was only able to copy the "Applications" folder by restoring the volume to the external HD I had plugged in, and nothing else.
So when just this afternoon, I was fiddling with the prompt that displayed whenever you entered single-user mode, trying to move documents from inside the Documents folder into the Applications folder (because I thought that if I did "restore" all over again it would copy needed files into my HD like it did the last time - the /Volumes directory disappeared.
What could have caused this? I know that this is what's causing the flashing, alternating icons during attempted startup, but I swear that I didn't even think of doing anything to modify the /Volumes directory. One minute I was entering files /Volumes just to fiddle with it, then proceeded to go in deeper to cp or mv files into the /Applications directory, the next it was gone.
What should I do? I contacted the local Power Mac Center nearby to check if they're carrying the Mac OS X Snow Leopard Installer DVDs but I'm pretty sure that those things are limited now to the U.S. and the U.K.?
Please send help/advice, I'm broke and pretty much very very desperate.
Thank you for your time.

and also we have this older MacBook (2007 I think) that flashes the prohibitory sign (circle with slash going through it) whenever I try to boot it - started doing that a few days ago and I swear on both laptops that there are no peripherals that are plugged in except for the MagSafe (this older MacBook has no batteries installed since the last one shot out two years ago and we haven't had the money to replace it..)
Could the MagSafe be the problem? Because I haven't been doing anything dangerous on this older one (even cleared out some old files/videos to free up disk space) but still, it went ahead and got into a coma.
I can only access it via Safe Boot (pressing shift right after I power it up) and thankfully, its FireWire port using Target Disk Mode.
How I wish I could use Target Disk Mode on the later (2010) model, but alas, the only solution is to purchase the Installer DVD - only the Apple Reseller I contacted hasn't contacted me back yet.

Talk to me like I'm 5: Where are my Pages documents?

My gadgets and versions:
iMac 10.9.5 Mavericks, running Pages 5.2.2
iOS on phone and iPad 8.1.2, running Pages 2.5.2.
I was using Pages in iOS 7 on my iPhone 4 and iPad and had no problem seeing all my documents on all my gadgets.
When iOS 8 arrived on my new phone and iPad and all those messages about iCloud Drive started appearing, I did NOT jump to iCloud Drive because I have not yet upgraded to Yosemite.
Here are my questions:
1. I can only see all my Pages documents in iCloud while at my iMac. I canNOT see any of them on my iGadgets. I can NOT see them when I sign in to icloud.com. Is there a remedy so that I can access the documents on my iPad besides upgrading the iMac to Yosemite? (I'm not averse to doing so. I just don't have time to do it right now.)
Follow-up question: will upgrading the iMac to Yosemite solve the problem of not seeing any Pages documents on the iGadgets? OR do I have to jump into iCloud Drive in order to see all my documents on all my devices?
2. I have read a few horror stories about folks losing all their Pages documents after upgrading to Yosemite. I don't understand them but, of course, now I think that will happen to me. So: Should I attempt to grab copies of my Pages documents from iCloud before I upgrade? If so, how would I do this? Duplicate or Move to makes sense. Is there another option?
3. Is there something I can do in order to see these documents on my iPad right now? I am relieved the documents are in iCloud but I need to be a bit portable and see them on an iOS device.
Thanks

I am going to switch to my cynical mode here.
According to some posters, you should switch to Yosemite, turn on iCloud Drive and then when the inevitable #$%@ hits the fan it will be all your fault.

Sending a pages document to Hard Drive.

"How to retrieve deleted Pages document."

How to retrieve deleted Pages document? Thanks.

If you have a Mac that is signed into your account and you are using Time Machine to back up your Mac, you can recover the deleted document using Time Machine. Otherwise, without a backup souce there is no way to recover it.

How to send a Pages document to others? The file is too big for emails.

I want to work the same Pages document with a team. What are the options to be able to send to them to edit back and forth? It's over 25MB and emails don't support large files.

Personally, if this were my team, I would standardize on Office for Mac 2011 update 14.4.7 (latest) and then everyone would be on the same page, without any of the Pages v5 feature deficit, document incompatibility, and productivity drop trying to make simple things work. The Word documents would be substantially smaller, and have better support for team edits.
Regarding Pages…
Is the entire team on Yosemite, and will be signed into iCloud? If so, you can use Yosemite Mail's new Mail Drop feature which can support up to 5GB files. Read about Mail Drop in this article.
The next challenge is one of file compatibility among Pages users. If you use the default file format (Single File) written by Pages v5.5.1 on Yosemite, it cannot be opened by Pages v5.2.2 or earlier on Mavericks. You must instead, change that File type to Package and save it again. Pages v5.5.1 has File > Advanced > Change File Type, and a choice of Single File (default), or Package. Pages v5 documents originated on Mavericks can be opened in Pages v5.5.1.
If a member of the team is using Pages '09 v4.3, then any work performed in Pages v5 must be first exported to Pages '09 format. Any functionality used in Pages '09 v4.3 that is not supported in Pages v5 will be filtered out when opened in Pages v5.

Home Sync Conflict - Pages Documents

I'm getting Home Sync conflicts but only with documents created in Pages. Home Sync suggests I don't have sufficient privileges but I've confirmed this is not the case.
All other files sync correctly with the Windows 2003 Domain Controller hosting the home folder share.
I have Full Control permissions on my home folder and all sub objects.
Looking at the home folder from windows, Pages docs seem to be exist as a folder structure - is this be related to the issue?

If you sign up for a free iCloud account - your Pages documents will sync to that iCloud account - after you get everything set up. It does it automatically.
As far as the Mac - you could use the iCloud account to download those documents to your Mac, you can still use DropBox, or SugarSync cloud services or you can use file sharing - a feature of the iOS that has been available since version 4 I believe. If you use file sharing, you must connect your iPad to your computer - like we did in the good old days.
You can read this about file sharing.

Copying Pages documents to ipad mini

Copying Pages documents to an ipad mini ~
An internet search gave a support.apple.com link to "Pages for iOS (iPad). Step 1. was "Open the document . . . . then tap [spanner/wrench icon]. I did that. Step 2. is "Tap "Share and Print . . . ". There is no such option in the menu which appears after Step 1.

If you want to copy the document from your computer to the iPad Mini, while you are in the thumbnail view of Pages on the iPad, tap the + sign to create new document (in the upper left corner) and then select "Copy from iTunes". Choose the document from the resulting window that pops up.
The information that you read is for sending a document from the iPad to your computer. It is old information from an earlier version of Pages anyway. In the latest version of Pages, you tap the Share icon in the upper right corner of the open document and select "Send a Copy".

How do I change my MobileMe sign in page to iCloud sign in on my iPad

You access your iCloud data through the apps on your iPad, such as contacts, calendars, your photo stream album in Photos, your iWork documents in the iWork apps, etc. You can also access some of your synced data by going to icloud.com on your computer. As posted, unlike MobileMe, there is no separate app like iDisk that allows access to your data in iCloud.
