Spreadsheets will not open with update... or without...

I went to open a spreadsheet I made about two months ago, it said it needed to be opened with the newest version of Numbers. I came here, installed the latest version of Numbers, and it still has the same error message. What the frick? Why can’t it open older files, or newer files apparently…
There seems to be SERIOUS compatibility issues. I do not have Excel, so this is my only option. Apple, please fix this. I loved this program, but now its more of a hassle than anything.

These two screen shots were taken one after another (the error message first, then the screenshot from the app store).
I installed the update from the App store, I went to the launch pad, where after it was installed, it was all sparkly (like literally so I'm fairly certain that it was the right one.) I went to file > open > the spreadsheet that I wanted, and I got the same error message.
This was before my initial message, I apologize if the original post was not clear, I didn't know what tags I was clicking, to be honest, I posted orignally from my phone.
Oddly enough, I still get the error message, and if I turn off my computer and turn it on, then it still wants me to update the software. I've done the same thing, downloading and installing the update, clicking the NEW icon that is  in the apps folder, not on my dock, and I get the same loop. Immediately after that, if I go to the app store, it says that I have downloaded the most recent version, but if I restart my computer, it says I haven't. Again, this has happened three times.
I am aware that when I update, that the original doesn't go away. But it seems that the download doesn't work either. Perhaps this is an issue only with the app store?
any

  • ITunes will not open with iOS 7 update

    iTunes will not open with iOS 7 update

    My sister is having the same issue on iPhone 4. iTunes only loads the menu buttons at the bottom of the app with no content. I'm going to have her try the reset settings.
    I will add that iTunes on my iMac seems to require a cookie from Safari to keep you logged in. I've never seen the same requirement on the phone but iBond's solution will work if you ever have an issue with iTunes log in on your computer.

  • Edited clips will not open with other apps

    After editing video clips using Adobe Premiere Elements, clips will not open with other apps (like VLC, Media Player, etc...)

    Just saw your post and wanted to leave a just in case note.
    From the information that you and John T. Smith just exchanged, it would appear that you attempted to play back the saved project file (project.prel) with your VCL Player and Windows Media Player. You need to export the Timeline content to a file format that is supported by the player of your choice. By now, you have probably been there and done that.
    This is the just in case note about projects and their project.prel file....let us say that you have two separate projects and you decide to put the content of one project into another. Cannot do. One cannot import a project.prel into another project.prel. You would have to export the Timeline of one and then import that export in the other project. Alternatively, those with Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1, 9.0/9.0.1, and 10 could use the ClipMate program to copy/paste between programs without issues. However, with Premiere Elements 11 there are some problems in that regard.

  • Raw files from the new Nikon D810 will not open with either Photoshop CS5.1 or Lightroom 4.  When will a real Adobe solution be available to work with Raw (NEF) files in their native format, using CS5.1 and LR4?

    Raw files from the new Nikon D810 will not open with either Photoshop CS5.1 or Lightroom 4.  When will a real Adobe solution be available to work with Raw (NEF) files in their native format, using CS5.1 and LR4?

    Clarification: this is a user forum; you are not addressing Adobe here.
    The answer to your question as phrased is: never.
    CS5 is history and it is not longer supported.  There will not be any updates or bug fixes for CS5.
    You need to convert the raw NEF files from your D810 to raw DNGs using the free, standalone Adobe DNG Converter 8.6 RC (beta), the first version ever to support that camera..

    Numbers 09 spreadsheet will not open in Numbers 08.  Message suggests new version of Numbers is needed.  Why?

    @Nkcohen:
    "Then move the old version into trash.  (The old version is still availabe under iWork 09."
    Not while it's in the Trash, and definitely not after you've then emptied the Trash.
    You can leave both versions in the Appications folder, and both versions' icons in the Dock. And you definitely should leave them until you have some experience with the new version and what it won't do that the '09 version will.

  • TS2621 Pc created spreadsheet will not open on ipad

    Pc created spreadsheet  will not open on iPad

    The app is crashing for some reason. Even though it is only flashing and will not open, it may still show up in the task bar. So try quitting Pages and then restart the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps.
    Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • IPhoto will not open with pictures when I click on the icon.  It does show that it is open on top toolbar. What happened to my photos?

    iPhoto will not open with pictures when I click on the icon.  It does show that it is open on top toolbar. What happened to my photos?

    Did you run any updaters recently, i.e. like just before this happened?  Try this first fix: make a duplicate copy of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete  the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder. 
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file,, Cache.dbt, that is located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences..

  • Events will not open with double click/double click not working.

    Have just upgraded to iPhoto'11 and finding it a pain to use after previous iPhoto.  Events will not open with double click (even though highlighted in yellow) and photos will not open with double click or videos play.  How can we fix this please?

    That sounds very like an issue with your mouse/trackpad and not iPhoto. Go to your SystemPreferences and chck the speed you've set for double clicking

  • Mail will not open with Viewer Window

    Hi-
    When I start Mail, I only get a menubar. It will not open with a Viewer Window and the option to do so is grayed out on the File dropdown menu.
    It was having problems earlier displaying messages when moving between folders and was unable to send a message I had just replied to.
    New to Apple, don't know where to start..
    Thanks,
    cj

    Too late. Already fixed it. Must have been a bad message on the server because after I logged into my .MAC mail account with another reader (Opera) I was able to download and delete all the messages on the server.
    Next time I tried Mail, everything bounced back into shape.

  • Phase One files shot with C1 4 will not open with ACR

    Hi, files shot with Capture One 4 will not open with ACR nor DNG. Extension is set to .TIF but only the small preview opens. If I shoot with Capture One 3.7 - no problem. Any ideas ?
    Thanks,

    Hi Gunter.
    You would need to upload the file to your own web server or to a file sharing site like Yousendit.com and then post a link to the file here in the Forum.

    A long shot, but make sure Safari is set to accept cookies either "Always" or "only from sites I visit". If you have cookies turned off completely, that may cause a problem.
