Thinking of buying iWork for invoicing

I'm thinking of purchasing iWork. I need a more structured way of invoicing my clients. Would any of the applications in iWork be a good fit for this? Also, if I create a presentation in Keynotes 08, would I be able to import it into iMovies?

I don't know that the iWork apps would be able to do what you need, so I suggest you download the iWork '08 trial & try it for yourself for 30 days. Also, take a look at iWork Community which may have some user-contributed invoicing templates you could use.
Yes, you can export Keynote presentations to QuickTime which can be imported into iMovie. I believe you need QuickTime Pro to do the conversion, though. Keynote presentations can also be sent to iDVD.

Is there a pre-installed application on the iMac that would allow me to crate documents, presentations and spreadsheets or do I have to buy iWork for this?

Thank you.

No pre-installed app that will do all that, and yes, you could buy iWork - or you could download the free (although they do seek donations) LibreOffice: http://www.libreoffice.org/ or OpenOffice: http://www.openoffice.org/porting/mac/

If I buy iwork for my macbook, do I have to buy it in addition for the ipad2 ?

I am trying to make the transition from PC to Mac and thus will be buying both, a macbook and an ipad2. Id like to know if I would I thus have to buy applications like iwork , for both macbook and ipad ? Thats a double expenditure.

Yes, you'll have to buy it twice. Even then, it's still cheaper than one copy of Office, and having bought it, you can then install it on as many Macs or iOS devices (iPads, iPhones, iPod Touches) as you own.

Must I buy iWork for my Mac again?

Hi! I bought my Airbook almost a year ago with the iWork's disks. Later ,I bought the apps (Pages, Keynote and Numbers) to my iOS devices but now, the iWork doesn't actualize for the new OS X Maveriks. Must I buy it again?

In order to use apps on the iPad, yes, you must purchsae apps for the iPad.

Where to buy iwork for osx tiger?

I've got a new Mac Book Pro and luckily it came with Mountain Lion (OSX 10.8.3) instead of Mavericks.
I've got Mavericks on my MacMini in for my day job and it's not great
Trouble is my MBP does not have iWork, or even just Pages, on it.
Where can I get it. I'd like to get it from Apple but if it has to be via another party I'd be OK with that.
Thanks.

Amazon is selling the iWork '09 boxed DVD set, for very cheap.
Make sure you update it to v 4.3 after you install it.

I currently have an iPad and thinking of buying another for my wife. When I download books from iBooks will they download automatically on both iPads when i use the same account information?

If I have two iPads and download from iBooks, will they download automatically on both iPads?

You will need to download the book on each iPad. also you need to use the same account on both devices.

IWork for Snow Leopard

I have an iMac running Snow Leopard. Can I buy iWork for it? In the App Store it says that iWork requires OS X 10.7.4 or higher - but I find it difficult to believe that there is no way to buy iWork without upgrading my operating system.

This is a BAD practise from Apple to just have the latest version supposing everyone only have the latest system. They should know better as user tends to use their expensive computer for a very long time.
Talk to the Apple store or the App store and ask for an older version for your system. I think it would be version 9.0.4 or so.

We just purchased an IMAC and received a $100 gift card. Can I buy IWORK with this card? If so, how. I have already put in codes etc. but can't find the program.

Can I use an Apple gift card to buy IWORK for my new IMAC? We got a $100 card with our purchase of our IMAC.

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
Type iWork in the search box and there they are.
You may also buy the iOS versions of the iWork apps in the iTunes App Store if you want to use them on an iOS device, such as the iPad.

IWork for apple AND non-apple computers? Compatible?

Can I buy iWork for both my iMac and Macbook Air, AS WELL AS for my non-apple laptop? I was told that iWork is now compatible with non-apple computers but found contradictory info on forums. Thanks for any help with this.

You can purchase individual iWork applications (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote) for download from the App Store within OS X. Apple is presently in an iWork beta for iCloud that in addition to working on OS X, will enable you to create and share .pages, .doc, and .pdf files on other platforms. No timeframe has been shared for beta exit, but it should be later this fall or just plain later.
By example, I just went to my iCloud account within Firefox 23.0.1 and IE 10 on Windows 7. Because I had signed up for the iWork beta, the individual iWork apps showed up in these browsers. When I selected Pages, all of my prior Pages documents created on OS X were there. I could open these documents, add content, and they were automatically saved back to iCloud. I right-clicked on a document and had the option to download it to Windows 7 as a .doc or .pdf file. The .doc file opened in LibreOffice 4.1 Writer.
On Fedora 18, same drill. Cautioned about Chrome 29, but worked anyway. The iWork for iCloud beta is particular about browser support (any platform) and may caution about certain unsupported features if you continue to use the offending browser.

How can I buy an older version of iwork for my macbook?

I am thinking about buying a new macbook pro as my current macbook is approaching 7 years ol. I replace the hard drive in January to 640gb and upgraded the ram to maximum possible of 4ghz. I was running an old version of MS Office for Mac 2004 which was not great and I figured i would try using the mac versions before spending nearly £2k on a new machine. But I can't seem to buy it on the store because I apparently need to have OSx 1.7 or higher and I am running 10.6. Any ideas?

Upgrade Office to Office 2011 for OS X. You can download a trial at www.mactopia.com. Old versions of iWork boxed sets can be found searching Amazon, eBay, or Google.
Office 2004 and Other Applications Don't Work in Lion/Mountain Lion
If you have Office 2004 which is a PPC-only suite, it will not work in Lion/Mountain Lion. You need to upgrade to Office 2011 - Mactopia - or you can try the freeware suite, Libre Office, that is functionally similar to Office 2007 for Windows except it works on Lion/Mountain Lion.
You may want to consider as well:
These two suites are similar to Libre Office but not as current or as well-supported:
NeoOffice
Open Office
And, then there is Apple's iWork suite:
Pages - word processing and layout
Keynote - presentation
Numbers - spreadsheet
Each can open and save Office compatible files. They may be purchased separately via the Mac App Store for $19.99 each.
As for other software, any PPC-based software will not run in Lion or Mountain Lion because Rosetta is no longer part of OS X. You will need to upgrade to Intel versions of the software.
(Access to the Mac App Store requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or higher and an Apple ID.)

Thinking to buy a new 15inch macbook pro retina display. Aim to use it for video editing and compositing... Is ıt worth for it?

Hi... I am a freelance filmmaker. Now I have 2008 model mac pro and I am thinking to buy a new macbook pro 15 inch retina display. Do you think its worth for it? I aim to use the macbook mainly for video editing, video compositing (after effects) and photo editing. My current old mac pro has 12 GB and the graphics card is ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256 MB (Yes I still use it). My main question is, do you think its better to move to macbook pro or upgrading the old one? Making it 32 GB of RAM and buy a new NVIDIA cuda capable graphic card? I dont have enough budget to make it together... Want to hear your suggestions...

I'm not sure, I've seen pro animators use MBPs but usually with a large monitor. Especially doing video editing, compositing and editing it might make more sense to upgrade the Mac Pro to an SSD as the boot drive. What kind of CPU setup is in your Pro?
Check these out:
mac pro SSD upgrades?
SSD as system disk while users folder + data on HDD
Early 2008 8-Core Mac Pro GPU Upgrades
I deal exclusively with OWC. I'd call them and walk them through your system and see what they say.
What you do takes a lot of CPU, RAM, graphics and boot disk power.
I've upgraded my two computers to SSDs and the first thing I noticed was that Photoshop CS6 opens in 7 seconds vrs. 50 seconds when the application was on a HDD.

I've been reading the comments re FCPX on MacBook Pro and now I'm scared. I'm taking a class now and thinking about buying to do videos for nonprofits. Won't be fancy stuff, but now wonder if it's a good choice. Also, heard Apple will drop support. Help?

I've been reading the comments re FCPX on MacBook Pro and now I'm scared. I'm taking a class in FCPX and thinking about buying to do videos for nonprofits. Won't be fancy stuff, but now wonder if it's a good choice. Also, a classmate who was in CA last weekend said he heard that Apple will drop support of FCPX. Any truth? Advice?. I'm on 10.7.4 with 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB 1067 MHz. Thanks.

While it is against the TOU of these boards to speculate on future products/updates what Thomas said is right: FCPX is quite a new product and it doesn't make any sense to drop it now.
The only thing that MIGHT get dropped at a certain point is support for older hardware/OS as FCP X progresses.

If I buy iWork on my iPhone, will I be able to install that same iWork through my apple account onto an iPad and be able to use that full screen? Or do i have to pay for a iPad version of iWork, where the screen settings and other stuff are different?

I'd like to get iWork on both my ipad 2 and iphone 4 mainly for traveling purposes... Right now I lent my iPad to my dad whose in somewhere else now so I don't have access to the iPad. So, I was wondering if right now I buy iWork onto my iPhone, and then when the iPad comes home, can I install that same iWork I bought through my apple acout and not have to pay for another version, and the iPad iWork can go full screen beautifully and not ugly?

iWork is universal, so it will work full-res on the iPad. This is true for any app which has the plus sign symbol (in the App Store in iTunes it will say "This app is designed for iPhone and iPad".

If I buy a mac with mountain lion and then upgrade to mavericks wil I get iWork for free, If I buy a mac with mountain lion and then upgrade to mavericks wil I get iWork for free

If I buy a mac with mountain lion and then upgrade to mavericks will I get iWork for free.

If you buy a new Mac with Mountain Lion, any included software is free and can be redownloaded from AppStore for that machine only. Some software only gets reinstalled if OS X (only) gets installed over itself to fix issues. See #8 Step here.
..Step by Step to fix your Mac
If you upgrade to Mavericks usually only OS X itself is changed (sometimes the hidden User Library is also), all the software (and user accounts) also carries over (compatible or not), and Apple's software is upgraded.
So if your new Mountain Lion Mac comes with free iWork, then when you upgrade to Mavericks it will still be there.
If your new Mountain Lion does not come with free iWork, then it won't magically appear for free if you upgrade to Mavericks.
If you need a free Office suit, I suggest you look at the donationware LibreOffice.
You will likely need to control key or right click to "Open" LibreOffice to approve through OS X's "Gatekeeper".
You will need to manually update it also, as it's not on AppStore.
https://www.libreoffice.org/
Benefit of LibreOffice is it's completely cross-platform compatible, so you can share working files with Windows and Linux users, which you can't with iWork.
You also should learn Microsoft Office when you have the funds, because it's standardized in the business world.

Hi there, I'm thinking of buying both a new MacBook Pro and a small 22 inch LED tv for my kitchen... what would I need to be able to use (wireless of course) the tv as a monitor for the new computer? Apple tv? Airport Express? something else? Thanks.

Hi a,
http://www.mctiviausa.com/
There has been "talk" on and off of Apple TV doing it (and people have done it with a hack), but I haven't really followed it.
It would be a whole lot cheaper getting an adapter (as needed) and cable and simply pluggin it in when you're in the kitchen.
