The new version of Pages in Mavericks crashes when I use spell checker.

The new Pages in Mavericks crashes each time I use spell checker.  I have to Force Quit each time I use spell.  I've been using Pages for many years with no problems.  This is a first.  I don't know if it relates to Mail's spell checker problem I've also been having since upgrading to Mavericks.  In Mail, some words that I commonly misspell (like hte for the) are no longer corrected when I send mail.  Anyone else have this problem?  Any workarounds or clues as to how to fix the issue?

Many features have been removed from Pages 5 see:
iWorkTipsnTricks Forum
Meanwhile it probably is best to continue using Pages '09 if that is possible and if you are unhappy with Pages 5 give it a review and rating in the App Store.

  • About the new version of Pages in Maverick

    With the new version of Pages, in Maverick, I don't find any longer the option that allowed visualization of two pages of one file on screen. Does anybody know how to do or was that option disabled?

  • TS5249 Problems with the Korg Legacy Collection in the new version of Garageband in Mavericks.

    Hello!
    I'm having problems with the Korg Legacy Collection in the new version of Garageband in Mavericks. When I try to load the AU, I get this error message:
    "Failed to load Audio Unit, please contact the manufacturer for an updated version or further assistance. (-10110)"
    They seem to work fine in Ableton Live 8 Lite, also running in Mavericks. So, I think it is something with Garageband. In addition, Korg updated to 64bit early last year.
    Anyone know how to fix the problem? Or is Korg or Apple's problem?
    Thanks.

    Have you checked, if you have the newest 64-bit version installed? There may still be an older version sitting around - check both plug-in folders, the one in your Home folder and the one in the system library:
    ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/
    /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/
    Some programs may still be able to use 64-bit plug-ins, but GarageBand will not use them:  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5249

  • Since updating to Maverick, the new version on Pages states that previous Pages documents are too old to load? Is there a work-around?

  • I have been editing a document on my MacBook Pro and iPad, which has the newer versions of Pages. Now, I cannot open on My MacBook. It says I need a newer version of OS. However, I'm not showing a newer version being availabe!!! Can anyone help???

    That is Pages for iPad v2.0, which Pages '09 v4.3 can't read.
    You need to either stick with the older version of Pages on the iPad or get Pages 5 for the Mac which is only available if you are running OSX 10.9 Mavericks.
    Unfortunately that is not the end of your woes because Apple has made iCloud convert the files to Pages 5 now, and Pages 5 has over 90 features deleted on top of doing a shocking job of converting older Pages files.

  • Does the new version of pages for ipad have backwards compatability with previous versions of Pages?

    This one question is preventing me from downloading the new version of pages - I am worried I will lose the ability to read documents made with the previous version of pages, or that they will be automatically converted into the new format without my knowing. My laptop does not have Mavericks so I will have to keep using an older version of pages here, but I am reluctant to download the new version to my ipad because of concerns that users have previously voiced about the lack of backwards compatability. Is this still the case, or is there now backwards compatability?

    Did we get HyperCard back?
    Did we get all the features of AppleWork Back?
    Has QuickTime X got back the editability of QuickTime?
    Has FileMaker now got all the Bento features?
    Has Final Cut been reduced to match iMovie for iOS?
    Apple is out to attract iOS users, who mainly do selfies and twitter. They pay better because they are undemanding, don't even notice when Apple offers them something inferior and have been broken in with the iTunes Store harness.

  • Text to Speech does not appear to be working in the new version of Pages

    I have tried several ways to get the text to speech feature to work with the new version of Pages, but haven't yet had success. I use that feature in editing my articles alot, so I guess I'll stick with Pages 09 for now.
    Anyone found a work around?

    Nope, working as intended.
    Pages 5 breaks accesibility completely.
    If you're visually-impaired DO NOT UPDATE.

  • The text in the tables is hazy when printed in the new version of pages. How can I get this to the same clear text as before?

    In the new version of Pages, the text in the tables are no long clear and sharp as before, they look embedded on all print outs. How can I change this.

  • In Pages 09 we can do Mail Merge and Import Styles from a document. Can someone please explain how we can do this with the new version of Pages 5.1. Even Apple solutions are only valid for Pages Version 09. What a DOWN GRADE!

    …and the other 98 missing features.
    Just use Pages '09, which should be in your Applications/iWork folder.

  • How do I add extra pages to template documents in the new version of pages which carry over the same formatting, borders etc?

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how how to add extra pages to template documents in the new version of Pages which carry over the same formatting, borders, styles etc? In iWorks09, all styles, borders etc just used to carry over to the next page. In the new Pages, this doesn't seem to happen. Unless I'm missing something.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Everything is a matter of degree! (Speaking for myself).

  • Pages: On the new version of Pages, I can't select the invisible character "return". I need to copy and past it on "Find and replace". How can I do that? Thanx.

    To change all the "-" by — that starts a dialogue on a book, I used to copy and past "Return" + "-" to ensure that all the "-" will not be change. But on the new version of Page if I select the "Return" character, and past it on "Find", the "Space" is appearing. How to select the "Return" character ? hanks for your help.

    Select a song. Hit command-I (Mac) or Ctrl-I (Windows). In the pane which opens select the 'Artwork' tab. Drag an image to the space.
    Or, select an album: same keystroke. In the pane which opens is a space labelled 'Artwork' - drag an image there.

    Hola a todos:
    No puedo creerlo, pero la nueva versión de Pages (5.0), es muy muy diferente a la versión anterior, fuentes, plantillas, formatos y otras cosas no funcionan en la nueva versión.
    Por favor, que podemos hacer... Necesitamos leer el manual, o eta situación es por los cambios y están trabajando en ello?
    Comenten por favor, necesitamos su ayuda.
    PD. Como instalo fuentes (fuentes presentes en la verrsión anterior) para la nueva versión?
