To send a document saved as pages

Hallo everybody, I am a new user of mac and I would like to know if it is possible to send a document saved as Pages and not as .doc or Pdf with my mail. I tried to upload a document saved as Pages to my gmail...but it didn't work. Thanks.

Navigate to your saved Pages document file and RIGHT-Click (or Ctrl-click) the file name. Select Compress from the menu that appears. This will create a Zip file. The .zip file will easily attach to your gmail message.
Regards,
Jerry

  • Pages Document created on Macbook Air cannot be opened on Ipad Mini. I get a message that reads, "only documents saved in pages '09 may be opened." These devices are one week old and I just downloaded Pages for each.

    I just got a Macbook Air running 10.8.2 and an iPad Mini. I downloaded Pages for both. I created a document in pages on the MBair and tried to save it to the iPad Mini so I could work on it while commuting and the file does not show up on the mini. I have tried to saved the file through iTunes app page and the message keeps telling me I can only transfer files saved in Pages 09. What gives? I can transfer files made in Microsoft word no problem, but files made in the same program do not work. Any help?? Very frustrating.

    You are aware that Pages for Mac and Pages for iPad /iPhone/iPod are 2 different program?
    Looks like you have Pages for Apple mobile devices but not for your Mac.
    If that's the case
    Pages for Mac: https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/pages/id409201541?mt=12
    Pages for iPad/iPhone/iPod touch: https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/pages/id361309726?mt=8

  • I recently upgraded my OS from 10.4.11 to 10.6.8 but lost the iWork Application in the process. I can't find the original CD. If I purchase the latest Pages from the Apple store, will I be able to open documents saved in Pages (?2006)?

    You won't be able to buy Pages from the Mac App Store on 10.6.8. You need to reload it from the original source.

  • I can no longer open pages and I cant open any documents saved as pages. What can I do?

    Suddenly, I can no longer open my pages documents and I keep getting an error message, stating that the document could be corrupted. I can also no longer open pages itself. I am a bit of a technophobe and have no idea what to do. I have tried restarting and that has done nothing? Help!!

    My recommendation would be to check for updates (Apple menu > Software Update). If there are no updates for Pages, you should try uninstalling then reinstalling Pages.

  • 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:

    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.

  • Pages is sending my documents in docx format, but windows unable to open them. They arrive blank or can only be read as a single line at a time. When view prior to sending the document is divided with black lines after each sentence.

    Windows will only be able to open these if you have Word 2007+. Older versions of Word, for example Word 2003 would require a compatibility pack.
    Perhaps you can try 'Saving As' a different file type instead?

  • Regarding Pages: I can't access the document I was writting on at all. I have tried to send the document to my email, I've tried to make a copy but nothing seems to work, it just shows up blank.

    Regarding Pages: I was writing using the app Pages when I left the page I was writting on but now I can't access it at all. I have tried to send the document to my email, I've tried to make a copy but nothing seems to work. The document still exists and I can see my writting as I can with all other documents but I can't open that page.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Connect the iPad to your computer and try to get the document via File sharing
    - Try getting the document from iCloud.com if you are using iCloud

  • How to close a frozen warning: I am unable to close the "charicter boarders aren't supported and were removed" warning on my pages. Untill warning is closed I can not save my document. How can I get my document saved?

    I have an unsaved document open in pages but can not save it because the, "charicter boarders aren't supported and were removed" warning is open and I can not close the warning. How can i get the warning to close so I can save my document? Can I save the document without closing the warning?

    Probably not, but as you will have been unable to make any changes to the document with that warning window open, you're not going to lose anything by quitting (or force quitting) without saving. You'll still have the original document you were trying to import.
    I would suggest attempting to open the document in one of the open source Office applications, LibreOffice, Apache OpenOffice, or NeoOffice, each available for download from the linked sites. Once open there, remove the attributes that are causing the warning, save the file (as an MS Word document), then try opening that version in Pages.

  • I am unable to call up a folder from my documents files in pages. I haven't accessed it in a while but did not delete it and now cannot find it either through finder or a search of all saved documents. Not in my trash either. Where did I hide it?!?

    I am unable to locate a folder in my document files in Pages. I haven't accessed it in several months and now cannot find it in the docs and folders when I go to "open an existing file ...", in finder, or the list of all saved docs. Can anyone suggest where I might have succeeded in hiding it? thanks!

    Try Find Any File (also available in the Mac App Store). This will find hidden & invisible files as well as those in the various Libraries.

  • How do I put a pages documents saved on my macbook onto iCloud?

    Help i have no memory left on my macbook but loads of images (iPhoto) and documents saved on my desktop made in pages, how do i get all of this onto my iCloud account so i can delete it from my macbook?

    iCloud is used to sync your documents, for backup and for potentially editing them using the iCloud web interface.  Using iCloud this way does not remove the documents from you MacBook.  To do that you would need to back up the documents to an external device (flash or hard drive).  If you then delete them from your MacBook you're left with one copy on the backup media, which is a bit risky unless you can afford to lose them.

    To save as a PDF, you do that from Print
    To save as Wrod format, you export

  • Saving a Pages document: when I first save a pages document it saves and I don't know where it goes or what its name is.  I want to be asked every time I save a pages document what to name it and where to save it. How do I set this preference?

    I'll guess that you've used a page layout document & pasting created a text box. You can add more pages & create linked text boxes, but I think you'd be better of using a word processing document. In word processing documents there is a basic text layer & additional pages will be created as needed to fit the text. Take a look at the toolbar of your document. If it says "sections" for the +page icon it's a word processing document, if it says "pages" it's a page layout document.

  • Old documents requiring saving in Pages '09 before opening

    Hi,
    I have a number of documents made with a very old version of Pages.  When I try to open them, I'm told they're "too old" and that I have to first open, then save, them in Pages '09. Is there somewhere I can download this on the Apple website?
    Thanks.

    Your documents sound like they were created with Pages '08 and you are trying to open them in Pages 5.
    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5/5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.1 sometimes can not open its own files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has not only managed to confuse all its users, but also itself.
    Note: Apple has removed over 95 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    You can buy iWork '09 very cheaply from Amazon or other sources. Make sure you update it after installing to v 4.3:

    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • IWorks has disappeared. How can I open documents saved as Word 97 from Pages stored on Dropbox?

    iWorks has disappeared.  How can I open document saved as Word 97 through Pages stored on Dropbox?

    Thanks but I don't think this will help. Like I said, all of my add-ons were working fine and compatible until after running a previous version of FF. I am sure they are still compatible, but they are not working at all.
    I even checked my profile folder and all of the extensions' data is all still there but FF5 is just not reading it correctly. (like adblock plus... I see the folder for it but FF5 doesn't have it on the add-on manager page when I run FF5)
