Sharing pages docs through email ?

When I choose "Share" the words "Send via email" are greyed out.  How can I send pages documents through email using this feature?

The Share facility in Pages works just fine with normal OS X acceptible file names and content. As was previously mentioned, Apple has chosen to make the Pages Share menu categorical headings light grey. These headings, ”Send via Email,” and “Export,” are separators for the real items that immediately follow.
I have a Pages document open in front of me. I want to send it as an e-mail attachment. I choose the Share menu, and decide that under ”Send Via Email,” that I want a PDF attachment. The only confirmation of success is that Apple Mail launches a composition window with the open Pages document attached as a PDF. If you are using a different Mail User Agent than Apple Mail, this behavior will not likely happen.
In the Pages Help menu, there is a link to the Pages Users Guide. It is a useful read.

  • Dropbox vs. iCloud for Sharing Pages Docs

    iCloud Dive has been erratic and unreliable for me sharing a pages docs. iOS Pages says it now supports Dropbox.
         1. Can I save my Pages docs in Dropbox and have them still appear in Pages iOS "thumbnail directory"?
         2. Are they automatically saved to Dropbox?
          3. Can I use iCloud beta on a PC tomstill edit,these docs from Dropbox?

    Dropbox still has some integration issues with iWorks apps as far as actually appearing in the available storage options list. You can, however, export and store Pages files (in native format) to drop box as well Box and other file management apps, as well as send them from those apps to Pages for editing.

  • Why wont pages Send through emails?

    I don't have MS word I instead bought the iWork 06. I dig pages and all that jazz but when it comes time to email my school reports safari opens up with an error message and then when I try the same in explorer the pages documents are all greyed out and it literally won't let me send any pages file as an attachment. Is this how it is supposed to be or is there any way around it? Seems rather stupid to make it illegal to send through an email attachment. Demeans the whole purpose of me buying the program! Please help!

    Hi,
    I have the same question. What is the fast, easy way to email a Pages document (just 4 pages of text) to someone else? I don't want to fool around with pdf, compressing and all that. I just want to email the text so someone else can quickly open and edit it. No hassles. Thank you for your help.

  • Share pages doc via email with chrome mail client

    When choosing to share via email I see my mail client listed (chrome webmail) however when I select the format I want to email and select it nothing happens!
    Any thoughts or solutions (using native mail app is not an option at work - need to use the chrome browser and email due to working practice).
    Also sharing iCloud link via mail doesn't seem to work either!
    I am using the latest Yosemite update, latest Pages 5 version.
    Thanks in advance.

    Pages v5.5 for Yosemitie saved its documents in one format type: package (folder). Unless these are purposely compressed into a .zip (single file solution), they are incompatible with non-Apple user mail agents. By default, Pages v5.5.1 will save in single file (Apple terminology) format which is this compressed zip format, but with the .pages file extension. Just like the default in Pages ’09. It is compatible with non-Apple mail and storage solutions.
    I mention this because your issues may be related to using Pages v5.5, instead of Pages v5.5.1.
    Pages v5.5.1 has a File > Advanced > Change File Type > Single File menu item that should allow you to convert (in place) Pages v5.5 documents originally written in the incompatible package format. It you choose the Package style on this submenu, it can be opened by Pages v5.2.2 on Mavericks — something that didn't work with Pages v5.5.

  • Sharing pages documents via email in pages

    I cant seem to share a document via email unless i have the native apple mail app set as the default mail reader. I use airmail but still would like to share documents straight from pages. is there any workaround?
    (I'm pressing 'share' in pages, 'send a copy' and if the native mail app isnt default then there is no option to click email)

    Yes but maybe No.
    As you are running 10.6.8, the update 9.1 isn't required.
    If you bought iWork as a package embedding the three apps,
    Go to my iDisk :

    and
    For_iWork:iWork '09:iWork9Update5.dmg  (I don't know if it was re-introduced in Apple's download web site.
    expand and apply my Uninstall script,
    re install the original package
    apply the downloaded updater.
    But, maybe, it would be a good idea to go to :
    http://www.titanium.free.fr/
    download :
    MAINTENANCE 1.3.8  (for Snow Leopard) and ask it to :
    check and repair permissions
    Clean most of the caches.

  • Pages (latest ed) doesn't let me share documents through email anymore.

    I updated to the the Mavericks when it was released and updated my copy of Pages along with it. Pages was working flawlessly until yesterday when it was having trouble connecting to my Mail (and hence my Gmail) account. This happened even though I checked the connection and the connection seemed perfectly normal. Earlier today when I went to share a doc through the "Send a Copy" tab and when I scrolled over this I was given two options. Share document through Messages or through AirDrop. The email option had completely vanished! I checked my Mail account's connection to Gmail and everything appeared normal. I disconnected the account and reconnected it to be safe and tried again. Still no "Mail" option. I then deleted my copy of Pages 2013, restarted my comp and redowloaded it. Still no "Mail' option! (I also scanned Pages with 2 different virus detection apps {VirusBarrier Express & ClamXav} and both didn't find a thing wrong with it. Also I ran DiskUtility & that also found nothing wrong.)

  • Trouble emailing pages doc.

    Anyone else having troubles emailing a pages doc? I tried Apple mail, gmail,and yahoo.

    I bumped into this, too and did some more testing. It turns out that if you open a Terminal.app window and use the UNIX 'tar' command to create a "gzipped tar file" (i.e. .tgz), the Pages file will travel through gmail just fine. This suggests that gmail is opening zip files and inspecting the insides.
    Recipients of a .tgz file can just double-click them to turn them back into the Pages document.

  • Emailing individual Pages from a Pages doc?

    I am mebership secretary of an organisation. Next month I have to send individual invoices to over 100 members. to create personalised invoces, I set up the invoice in Pages and then used Numbers to merge individual members' names, addresses, etc into this document.
    Last year I was working on a PC and with Word and Excel and there was an option to email individual pages from the Word doc. It was easy and quick to send out all the invoices.
    However, in Pages, it only offers merge to a new document or to the printer. Even if there was a was a way of being able to quickly separate each page (ie individual invoice) from the one Pages doc, I could individually send the emails, but it looks as if separating the pages will be long and laborious.
    It has to be easy and straightforward - ie not using Apple script (if at all possible), as whoever takes over this role from me - and who may not be so computer savvy, will need to be able to do this job easily.
    Grateful for any suggestions.

    s,
    Go ahead and Print the Pages document to PDF > Open in Preview.
    Make sure that you are viewing the thumbnails in the Sidebar.
    1. Click on a page thumbnail in the Sidebar of the PDF document, visually confirm the content, Command-C to Copy.
    2. File > New From Clipboard
    3. File > Mail Document.
    Repeat steps 1-3 for each page you wish to mail.

  • File sharing through email

    How do you share a large gallery of edited photos (200+) through email?

    Do the Actiontec Routers support File and Printer Sharing? Is there anything that needs to be done, to enable it? Yes, the Actiontec Routers support File and Printer Sharing. No, it does not require enabling. There are no settings on the Actiontec Routers and Gateways with regard to Sharing, it is the router's default behavior. All of the settings for Sharing are on the computers (or printers, or NAS, etc...) themselves. The Actiontec MI424WR and RI408 routers have only one additional feature that can effect File and Printer Sharing (computers that can 'see each other' or a networked printer on the network). As stated earlier, the default behavior of these Actiontec routers allows this activity with no restrictions. Wireless devices have access to each other and to Wired devices, whether Ethernet or USB. The reverse is also true, Wired devices (like a PC) have full access to other Wired devices (like a printer or NAS), as well as Wireless devices (whether PC or printer). Provided that the PCs in question have a functioning Internet connection through the Actiontec Router. Then... If a device can not 'see' the network or access resources on the network, the cause will be on the devices themselves. If it is a printer, then it may be a network TCP/IP setting or missing protocol. If it is a server or workstation that cannot be accessed, then it will be TCP/IP settings, Firewall settings or mis-configured Sharing on the PC. The only setting that can restrict Sharing is Advanced Filtering, in the Firewall Settings section. To repeat it again, the default setting does not restrict ANY internal traffic. However, these routers allow for the creation of VLANs, and Advanced Filtering allows the User to keep the VLANs separate if they wish or to isolate or certain IP addresses. Advanced Filtering allows a great deal of control. If the User has blocked something unintentionally, the rule can be deleted, or the router can be Reset to return it to default values again.

  • Why is a page doc attached mail not going out through gmail?

    Since the update I can't send out an email attached with a page doc. I have continually received the message "Cannot send message using the server Gmail" "because this message's content presents a potentialsecurity issue" If I change it into any format beside page, it goes out. pdf and ms doc have no problem with it.
    Can anyone help me figure this out? why does this happen?

    You can set Firefox home page to one of your choosing, see [[how to set the home page]].
    If the keep me signed in option is not working, you may have a malformed cookie. Try deleting Google/Gmail cookies, for details on how to do that see [[deleting cookies]].

  • Error while trying to send a report link/page through email

    Hi,
    I was trying to send a bam report url through email but the following error occurs when i click on send button :
    The Message Center component is not configured correctly.The "Email Account for Alerting" field isn't specified correctly.Contact your system administrator to fix this
    Anyone help me by giving a solution
    Thanks in advance

    Hi, firstly I would like to ask whether, are you trying to send report URL in an alert mail? If it is so, then you have to configure your SMTP settings in your 'Message Center'. The steps to configure are as below-
    To configure the Message Center settings:
    1. Select Message Center Management from the drop down list.
    Some table cells are blank the first time you install the Oracle Business Activity
    Monitoring applications.
    2. Click Edit.
    3. Enter the mail server machine name or IP address in the SMTP Server Name field.
    The mail server must have the capabilities to send email to other SMTP servers
    that Active Viewer users specify in their personal settings.
    4. Enter an email account including the domain used by the Oracle BAM service in
    the Email Account for Alerting field. This is the account that will appear in the
    From header of e-mailed alerts.
    5. Click Save to save your changes.
    6. Restart the Oracle BAM Event Service to make the changes effective.
    Let me know if this helps. If this is not the requirement, please mention your requirement precisely.
    Harsha.

  • How do I save a page doc in word (so I can attach it to an email and send it)

    I'm a poet who has to submit my poems via submission managers at literary journals.  Most journals need these attached in a Word doc or Rtf file...but I can't figure out how to covert an existing page doc poem to a word doc so I can do this.
    Also, is it possible in pages to "save" a pages file as rtf? how? 
    Pat

    thank you Tom...
    I did try this...  am still a little confused.   "share" doesn't work ...I get a message that IWORK is discontinued.
    Also, after I go to export and click on "Word"  and click on export again....where does the resulting file go to get stored?  Is it on my computer then (on the desktop if I say that's where it goes?)...so that when attaching it to the submissions manager I would hit "browse" and find it on the computer/desktop and then hit attach?   I'm not even sure I'm explaining this right.

  • Just upgraded to OSX Maverick/Pages 5.0.  Hyperlinking Pages docs together functionality seems to have been removed. Pls confirm. (You can still define text as a hyperlink to a web page or an email address but all links to other Pages docs were removed :(

    Has anyone found a way of hyperlinking Pages 5.0 docs on Maverick?  Made extensive use of hyperlinking many Pages docs together.  On opening my Pages docs in Pages 5.0, get advisory dialogue box stating 'Spotlight data has been removed' and the doc opens fine, but the 'upgrade' file transformation has apparently removed a whole lot more.  Will have to migrate all my data to another app if this is no longer possible.  Painful. Time consuming.  Hoping there is a solution/patch available shortly.

    And there are those who don't like me repeating the same message over and over again in this forum!

    Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
    Archive/trash Pages 5, after Exporting your files to Pages '09, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.
