I am working on an article of over 7000 words... suddenly, Page, says that document cannot be updated and opened... I lost valuable time and text in the process! What is going on here?

Pages used to make backups... It does no longer... I cannot even revert to a previous version not being able to open the document that I was still working on half an hour ago. Thank heavens, I made a copy by selecting all text and copying it into an email when the problem first occurred yesterday evening. I am now working on it as an email. I can't risk loosing text this way anymore thru Pages. This is very bad. I am truly disappointed by this... particularly having moved from MS Office to iWorks!

  • Recently when opening a window a spining multicolored pinwheel replaces the cursor. what's going on?

    Reccently when opening a window a spining multicolored pinwheel replaces the cursor. what is going on?

    I'm not an expert on this, but it could indicate different problems. I assume that the pinwheel goes away after a while. If not, then seems that the activity in the window is locked up.
    You might look at the memory usage on your computer. Open Activity Monitor in your Utilities folder and look at the memory usage on your computer. You may not have enough ram.
    If you hadn't shut down and restarted your computer lately, you may try doing that to see if it clears up temp files and free up some memory. If you don't have enough memory, try closing other applications to see if it helps any.
    You can also look at the CPU usage in Activity Monitor to see what's using up any high percentage of the CPU.

    A reset should help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off button at the same time for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons and await restart. No content will be affected.

  • 5s screen cracked.  Receiver speaker worked but when replaced screen the receiver speaker wasn't coming through very good.  Replaced receiver speaker and still bad quality.  All connects are tight and opened it a few times.  Where might the prob be?

    Pretty much what I wrote.  I didn't damage anything and all of the connections look good but the speaker isn't coming through very good.  I tried to mash the receiver speaker into its boot because I know that if it isn't seeded well then it could cause muffling but it is in place and secure.  All of the contacts look fine and none were damaged or touched when the phone was opened.  Any idea where I could have gone wrong here?  Mainly the receiver speaker sounds garbly and scratchy.  Like it would sound from being water damaged and no this phone has never seen water.  Thank you for any help anyone.

    Wow. That was your help?  Yes obviously it's damaged and obviously I have damaged it. Thank you for that. Now back to the question. What did I damage so I can fix it. This phone is too old for warranty as well. That's why I'm fixing it.  Please, everyone else. I don't want instore advice but tech help.  This is the Apple Community.
    In your first post, you said you didn't damage it. It seemed worth pointing out that it was, in fact damaged. And, as I suggested in my first reply, you might try a website like ifixit.com. They specialize in resources for people to repair iPhones.

  • I have an apple trackpad that shows that it is connected to Bluetooth but it does not respond. I have tried restarting the computer and turning the trackpad off and on but it will not work. Anyone have any ideas on what is going on here?

    I have an Apple Trackpad that shows that it is connected with Bluetooth but it is not responding. I've tried restarting the computer, disconnecting and reconnecting and also turning the trackpad on and off but it simply does not respond. Does anyone have any idea on what is going on here?

    There are reports of similar behavour but generally it is due to battery connections.   Is the indicator light working steadily or does it blink or even not function.   Here is the Apple document dealing with some of the problems.

    Is your machine within the guarantee period or under Apple care.   If so, return it to any apple retailer for examination and possible replacement.

  • What's going on here? Terminal screen pops up after installing Mountain lion.

    I installed mountain lion yesterday! all looked like it was working well. Just now I rebooted my iMac. The first thing I see on my computer is that it booted up in terminal mode! I have white lettering on black background with a lot of lines of text. At the end of many lines of text there is a copyright Regentss of the university of California."? Than it goes on with " MAC Franework successfully initialized."
    The text goes on until " Root device is mounted read-only." than it ask if i want to boot system enter exit & hit return.
    Anybody know what's going on here. I have never experienced this in my many years as a Apple enthusiasts!
    I need some clarification

    You're in single-user mode. Type the word "exit" and press return to get out of it. If it happens again, reset the PRAM.

  • I just got my new Macbok 15" Retina with Superdrive. It is taken over 4 hours to install Logic Pro and I still have 5 discs to go. What is going on here!?!?

    Anyone know what is going on here? Why does a brand new product work so slow, even slower than my year old Macbook Pro 15" ?
    It's a faster Ghz and more Ram with SSD...is there something wrong with the Superdrive?

    wow I just inserted the 3rd disc, 77 hours estimated!
    Does that thing work on hardturm? I was trying it but didn't get it to work, I will have to try some more

  • I have 2 iphones on one itunes account. I just upgraded both to ios 8 and now the messages i receive come through to both phones when they used to be seperated. What is going on here?

    I have 2 iphones on one itunes account. I just upgraded both to ios 8 and now the messages i receive come through to both phones when they used to be separated. What is going on here?

    I noticed the same problem after upgrading a few iPhones to IOS 8, all use the same Apple ID.  However, I now notice when I go into Message and instead of selecting a person from my contact list, I start typing their name which brings up a list of people, some of which are not in my contact list and are on one of the other iPhones. There's a circle/exclamation point next to the name which I click on, and one of the options is to "Remove from Recent". How did these names get from one phone to another and how do I remove all "recents"? They do not appear in my contact list. Anyone see this?

  • In attempt to burn blu-ray, I get QuickTime error 0.  Takes hours to export a 7 minute movie from timeline, then get notice it fails.  What's going on here?

    New problem just started 24 hours ago.  When I try to export from the time line to create a QuickTime file, a 7 minute movie on time line takes 3 hours to export and then the export fails, where as a few days ago, that export would take about 10 minutes at most.  I get the same failure notice when I try to share to blu-ray, DVD, or Vimeo.  Tried to use compressor, no such luck as compressor failed to make a .mov file.  I get QuickTime error 0 message about 5 minutes into trying to share to Blu-Ray now.   Does anyone know what is going on here?  I'm running latest update of Snow Leopard on an intel Mac Pro and the latest update to Final Cut Pro X.  I've also installed QT 7.6.6 to use in creating time lapse movie files.

    Same problem here, too. Final Cut Pro X 10.0.3 on OS 10.6.8. However, it is only doing it on ONE of my projects. A 4-second test project burned successfully.
    I'm  actually going to use iDVD to burn copies for a few people, so I only need the movie file from FCPX.
    Would someone please post best export settings for use on a DVD? In FCPX, the project is  in HD (1080p) with all media optimized to ProRes 442. I know it will have to be down-sampled to DVD resolution, but I've always been curious to know what settings will result produce the best possible quality in DVD resolution.
    Thank you!

  • I have a dual 1.8 ghz pwer pc g5 and sometimes i put it in sleep mode and come home on my lunch break and the fan is running at full speed and the computer has frozen up...what is going on here?

    and sometimes i put it in sleep mode and come home on my lunch break and the fan is running at full speed and the computer has frozen up...what is going on here? is it a virus or has my computer been hijacked? it cant be good for the computer...anyone ever had this problem..?

    Your problem has been reported many times, but causes are as varied as individuals.
    Can we assume that a hard shutdown allows a normal restart?
    Can I assume that you have used Disk Utility from your OS X install disc to repair the hard drive directory? The freezes and hard shutdowns require that the drive be repaired (not permissions) or soon the machine won't boot at all.
    If the root issue is software related, in Console (the application) under Logs, there should be loggings around the time of sleep and logs that tell you what process went wild and froze the machine.
    Network activity is also a common casue.
    Other info:

    If hardware related, such as an external drive, other USB device (Wacom tablet) or USB PCI card, ejecting, disconnecting, removing, or in the case of the Wacom, updating drivers, are all potential remedies.

  • Went to watch a video on You Tube that I have watched before on my iMac and got the prompt that I had to upload Adobe Flash Player.  Did that, and am still getting the same prompt and can't watch any videos at all.  What is going on here, Apple??

    I do not know how to do this with an Apple TV (I don't have one), but as far as I know Apple TV only does mirroring.
    If you have an HDMI cable long enough to reach your TV from where you sit, then it's easy. The TV could be set up in Extended Desktop mode (mirroring off) as if it was simply another computer monitor, and then you could just drag windows to it. If you have the Displays icon in your menu bar, that's where the setting is, or if the icon is not there, then the setting is in the Displays system preference. But again, that's for conventionally connected monitors, not Apple TV. If you don't have an HDMI cable and wanted a long one that's affordable you can get those at monoprice.com.
    The answer we are still waiting for is if anyone knows if Apple TV can be used in extended desktop (non-mirroring) mode.
