Purchased pages but won't let me save until i buy iwork??

I purchased pages from the app store a few months ago and all of a sudden when i try and save it tells me i need to buy iwork 09 or get the trial? i just want to use pages and don't want to buy anything. i paid for pages so i am confused as to why it isnt working?

You need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user.
Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his iDisk in For_iWork > iWork '09 > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

    How much is "plenty of storage"? Go to Settings>General>About>Available
    The GB size of the download file is the compressed size (like .zip or .dmg). When the file is installed/uncompressed it can be 2-3 times larger.

  • Brought album on preorder, Itunes saying I have purchased it, but won't let me download or buy again!

    Please help,
    I preordered AM by the Arctic Monkeys, it was released on the 9th September. It still has not downloaded or gives me any options to download or even rebuy it. I had to change my card details which may have stopped the transation, this has now been sorted but it is still in the same 'purchased' stage and won't let me do anything. I can only listen to the preview of each song.

    That is true.  you purchase one download only of music/vids/etc.
    You can redownload apps only.
    Did you update without making sure that you had transferred all purchases from the ipod to itunes?  not good.
    From the itunes store terms of service:
    "PRODUCTS CAN BE DOWNLOADED ONLY ONCE; AFTER BEING DOWNLOADED, THEY CANNOT BE REPLACED IF LOST FOR ANY REASON. YOU SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR BACKING UP YOUR OWN SYSTEM, INCLUDING ANY PRODUCTS PURCHASED OR RENTED FROM THE ITUNES STORE THAT ARE STORED IN YOUR SYSTEM."
    You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception.  They are under no obligation to allow.

    I also have Jolly's problem. I found the iMovie 9.0.9 folder and tried to launch the older version of iMove. It would not launch. I removed all of the iMovie preferences from the Preferences folder, removed iMove 10 from the applications folder, and restarted my Mac. iMove 9.0.9 still won't launch and I can't access my videos created with the older version of iMovie. Is there a way to uninstall iMovie 10 and reinstall iMovie 9.0.9?

  • Pages won't let me save any document help please!

    My problem: I type a text, hit 'save as' , name the file and trouble starts:
    A window pops up saying it is a locked document or file in use. Of course after
    checking it, none of it is the case, well, theoretical yeah the file is in use as I want to save it (!!!)
    Does anybody know if SL has an issue with the application of pages ?
    I thought there would only be an issue with apple works in that respect.
    I'm not a computer person but appreciate any help with this. I tried to save anything but it won't let me save a document at all...the same window pops up.

    Have you purchased or registered iWork?
    If not your trial period of 30 days may have expired.

    1. Upgrade your system to OSX 10.6.2 using the Combo downloaded updater ( not the Software Updater version):

    2. Update iWork to the latest version using software updater.

  • Took delivery of imac yesterday with pre-installed Pages, Numbers and Keynote. App store says they need updating but won't let me because I've never owned the major version of the software. I have paid like anyone else, so why can't I update?

  • Pages won't let me save!!!

    I've been working on a few documents today on Pages and it won't let me save. Whenever I try "save as" it just says "The document “Untitled” could not be saved as “(the name I've given the doc)”.
    I've been using my word for mac for a few months now and I'm just starting to use pages again. Do I have to uninstall and reinstall iwork?
    Help me please!!

    I am having a similar problem with Pages, which seems to have occured this week as all was well last week.  I don't even have the *save as* option on the File menu any more!  Have tried using the *duplicate* option but then am unable to rename the file (or save it elsewhere).
    Please check the Pages Discussions - there have been many questions and answers about this issue the last few weeks.
    File > Save As was removed by the iWork 9.1 update when it's running on OS X Lion. It was replaced by File > Duplicate. The Duplicate menu creates a temporary copy of a document with the same name. However, this copy still has to be saved to a folder. If you're unable to save a duplicated document please explain what you're doing.
    Also, the little black dot that used to sit inside the red dot (upper left corner of page) no longer appears when changes to document are made; does this mean that everything is auto-saved?
    Well Auto Save is one of the main features of OS X Lion. So yes, documents are auto saved (the exception is untitled documents that are closed without being saved).
    The dot in a window's close button has been replaced too. You can now look at the window title and see if a document has been edited. The window title will state "Document name - Edited".

    When I click the button a timer appears then disappears without creating the pdf form.
    I have created forms previously and not had this problem before.

    Are you using the FormsCentral desktop application or FormsCentral in a web browser?
    I would try the things recommended in this FAQ, the issue is different but the fix is likely similar:

    Try to save to iTunes uncompressed - if you uncheck the "compress" option, the file will be exported in aiff-format, CD quality. The file size will be larger, but your slideshow will have a better soundtrack.

    I want to download pages, it won't let me. Says it need os x 10.9 or later…I have os x 10.8.5…all updates have been done. Why is this? what can i do? Is there another pages app i can use? thanks do i need to download maverick? thanks

    Pages 5 requires OSX 10.9, for some reason that only Apple knows. Many users will not be able to install Mavericks on their Macs or do not want to.
    It has simultaneously removed iWork '09/Pages '09 from the App Store.
    You could ask Apple why it does things like this, but it doesn't say.
    If you don't already have iWork '09 I believe you can still purchase it from Amazon.

  • IWork bug won't let me save in new folders

    Hi I'd like to know why all my iWork apps won't let me save my files in new locations.
    Every time I try to save something it only lets me save my file to the page it automatically shows me (my documents).
    When I try to make a new folder within my documents to save my files, it tells me that the folder is a read-only location. See picture here:
    When I checked the permissions in the info of my documents, or the subfolder I try to make new folder in, it says that anyone who accesses my computer can read and write. See picture here:
    Please let me know how I can resolve this because I find it very hassle at this point to organize my files without this feature. I have already restarted the computer, Repaired and verified disk permissions, updated all the software and nothing seems to be working. The only way I can make new folders is by making one through Finder first, placing it in the right location, and saving my files there.
    Thanks

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
    Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
    sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
