The new Pages won't open on an older iMac, though I have loaded Mavericks successfully.  It's totally screwed up..how to fix?

I have loaded Mav, then the new Pages, but something's very amiss...have done the same on my laptop and Pages opens just fine...
How to troubleshoot my iMac disaster?

Thanks, 
Today I hard-rebooted which apparently got Mavericks performing up to par,
Then on top of the new OS platform ...Pages is behaving as it should, so, Problem Solved,
hope this might be helpful to others...

  • Browser won't open - greyed out - says trying to restore last session - I am at a total loss on how to fix this-have restarted -- i still can't get it to work

    i can't do anything when i open it up - it's greyed out -- have tried everything i can think of -- says restoring last session but never comes on - just says not responding if i try to click on toolbar or anywhere

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • The new Pages refuses to open RTF files

    I cannot open RTF files. Anything I get like that requires meto open it in Pages '09 to save to a .pages doc. Then I can get it open the new Pages. This needs to be fixed.

    Support for importing & exporting RTF is just one of the many, many features that have been eliminated or changed. Leave feedback for the Pages team using the link in the Pages menu.

  • New pages won't open on iPad; new pages shows installed on air book but won't open. Related?

    new pages program won't open iPad cloud documents without crashing--work around is to not open any documents in clouds, but it saves to clouds anyway; however, new pages program shows installed on air book but won't open new pages documents created on ipad without message "need to install a newer version of pages", which I have done. Are these two problems related?

    Double tap Home button and delete Pages from multitask-bar.
    Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears, ignore the Slide to Power Off that appears)
    Note: You will not lose any data.
    Try again with Pages.
    If no joy, delete Pages and redownload again.

  • After upgrading to FF 19.0.2 links in google news page won't open.

    I can't open news links on google news page.

    Hello tdp2101, check it in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode#os=winxp&browser=fx19 Safe Mode], in Safe Mode window select '''"Start in Safe Mode"''' and see if this happen again, '''''if not''''' then see: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-extensions-themes-to-fix-problems#os=winxp&browser=fx19 Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]
    (If the problem does not happen in Safe Mode, it is most likely because of an extension, a theme or hardware acceleration).
    also in your system details it seems you have to 2 Adobe PDF Plug-In install(Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape 10.1.6 and Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape "9.5.3") , deactivate the older one.
    thank you

  • Apps in the 'new iPad' won't open

    I just got my 'new iPad' few weeks ago but this had happened twice!
    The first time my apps won't open was after i sync my iPad to the laptop. I'd reinstalled all the apps and everything was alright again.
    I tried to sync my iPad again today and the same thing repeated. I'd tried restarting the iPad few times but it's not working. Is there any other solution? Reinstalling is very inconvenience and time consuming! Worst is that I lost all my paid apps!!!
    Is this a Factory defect?

    I have a new Ipad and experienced the very same problem with the purchased applications not opening.  It was driving me nuts and I think Apple should take this problem seriously and fix it. The temporary fix was exactly as stated by an earlier commentator which is to go to the App store and get a free app (I picked alarm clock) install it and the problem is fixed.  All other apps now will open.

  • When I click on a page link the new page doesn't open

    Everything about the problem is contained above.
    The same sites work fine in other browsers

    It would help to know what the problem page link is. <br/>(If it is only one page not opening, clear the browser cache, and that site's cookies)
    *If it happens on all links are you able to open files on your local computer with firefox?
    *Is it only pages on the internet that will not open?
    * are you posting this message from another computer ?
    * have you tried in [[safe mode]]
    *# Open in safe mode, e.g. use the option from the menu that says restart with add-ons disabled
    *#* do not make changes in the first options Window, just click on restart
    *# Use only the default theme
    *# if the problem persists, then whilst still in safe mode disable all plugins

  • The application Pages won't open on my mac?

    When i click on the application pages nothing happens. I tryed double clicking and the only option I'm given is to remove it from the dock. I tryed downloading douments from online, and then opening them, but it wouldn't open. What happened? How do I fix it?

    Check that it actually exists in your Applications folder. The icon on the Dock is only an alias pointing to the original appliaction.
    What version and release of Pages?
    What version of OSX?
    How did you buy and install it?

  • Can the new pages files be opened elsewhere without converting them in any way?

    My pages files were recovered from my laptop after it crashed with help from apple support.  Now I can't access them on any of the other systems I have access to.  It there anyway to covert them to a different format without having a special program?

    Thanks. We want visitors to browse through our historical photos in any of the ways iPhoto will allow them, including slide shows, but also searching for photos by key word and viewing them along with the comments we have entered on that photo.
    I was beginning to think iPhoto had no capability to limit users to certain functions.
    I wonder if the use of Apple's sharing files function would help. I have read that it is possible to share files with others, and to limit their use to viewing only, but I don't know how to do this.

  • When I click a link, it changes to the new page instead of opening the link in a new tab.

    I've gone to the options section several times and the right settings are in place but it still doesn't open in a new tab. I've never had this problem before. Should I change back to 3.6 or 4 beta? This problem occurs on the newest update. I believe it's 4.0.1 or something like that...I just loaded it yesterday. How can I fix this? Thank you.

    It's normal for links to open in the same tab as you browse if you left-click. You can Ctrl+click or middle click to open a link in a new tab. Are either of those broken?
    Some sites let you use a regular left click to open a link in a new tab (example: Google search settings), and some add-ons may change link behavior. Can you check whether one of your add-ons has been disabled?
    Tools > Add-ons > Extensions
    Also, if you use the Ask toolbar, try disabling it and see whether that makes any difference.

  • Pages won't open Document from email even though when I click Word doc it says open in pages and nothing happens?

  • Making documents saved with pages 07 work with the new pages app

    I have pages 07 that I have used for years on my iMac.  I recently got a MacBook Air, and had to put on the new pages app.  Now the new pages won't open my documents from pages 07.  I am told that I need pages 09.  Where do I get Pages 09?

    There was no Pages 07 so you have either Pages '06, '08 or '09.
    You can still buy iWork '09 from Amazon, quite cheaply:
    http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/viewtopic.php?t=432&mforum=iworktips ntrick
    but if you do have Pages '06 that will not be a solution. Instead export your Pages '06 document to Word .doc then open that in the later Pages.

  • HT1338 somehow  I installed the old pages over new pages for OSX Maverick now I have 2 and new version won't open files?

    Somehow after upgrading to OSX Maverick I downloaded new pages version and loved it. Somehow l LAST WEEK I downloaded the old version of
    pages and now the new pages files wont open? How do I uninstall the old pages?

    You should be able to reinstall the new version.....
    Out of curiosity, how did you install the old version over the new? I would have thought that was impossible.

  • The main part of the safari page is grey and won't respond/can't type in any commands.  I can move back through the previous pages, and even open new ones via the URL, but can't get onto the main part of the page and I can't get onto the 9 page option. !?

    Help, please.

    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
