Unable to open Numbers doc emailed to myself from my iPad.

I am trying to open Numbers sheets I emailed myself from my iPad. I receive an error message saying I need a newer version to open and I can get that in the app store. When I go to the app store and click "buy" I am asked if I want to continue because the software already exists on this computer (yet an older version, 9) and was not purchased in the app store. So I do not know how to proceed. I don't want to lose what I have in my computer software and I don't what to have two numbers on my computer. Please help if you can. I need to get some work done.

iWork (no 's') for iOS & iWork for Mac have not gone away.
iWork.com (beta) (also no 's') is going away the end of July. iWork.com (beta) is/was an online method of sharing iWork files with other users & never moved out of beta in 3+ years. It is a completely different entity than the iWork apps & is not & never has been necessary for the iWork apps to function.
A Numbers document, as well as Pages or Keynote documents, cannot be opened on a PC. You must first export them to a file that a PC can use. For Numbers that is generally Excel. In Numbers on your iPad tap the wrench & then tap Share & Print & choose Excel as the file type.
As for transfering a file from a PC to an iPad, I'm not sure as I don't use a PC.

  • Unable to open numbers docs on iphon

  • Can I back up stored docs, emails and notes from my iPad -- and not just music and photo's, etc?

    Can I back up stored docs, emails and notes from my iPad -- and not just music and photo's, etc? 
    I see how I can store the latter -- but not the former.  And I don't care whether it's to the cloud or to a hard drive, etc.
    Thanks!

    If you are using iCloud, you don't need to back up these items because they are synced with your iCloud account.

  • After updating to Maverick on my Mac - unable to open numbers or pages docs on iPad or iPhone any suggestions or info?

    After updating to Maverick on my Mac - unable to open numbers or pages docs on iPad or iPhone any suggestions or info?

    I Just found it on the apple site, it arrived on a cd a few days later and worked just fine again.
    i would recommend backing everything up just in case. Better safe than sorry, trust me. I've lost so much when i didnt back up once when re-installing the system.
    IT shoulldnt erase everything, bt it might, so back up just in case
    should you loose everything, then i have some tips on moving stuff fromyour iphone/ipod to the computer

  • TX Unable to open PDF docs

    message ~ memory cache is full, please soft reset.  No change, still unable to open PDF docs.  How do I clear memory cache or is PDF reader defective?

    Adobe for Palm is an ancient program that requires you to convert the raw PDF files on your desktop before you can sync them on a PalmOS device.  Are you using the converter program from Adobe?
    I gave up on this program a long time ago, and switched to the freeware "PalmPDF" available on freewarepalm.com.  You can put raw PDF's on an SD card and they can be read by the program with no conversion necessary!

  • Pages08 on my newMacBookPro/Lion will not open Pages08 docs emailed from my iMac. What can I do?

    Pages08 on my new MacBookPro/Lion will create new Pages08 docs but will not open Pages08 docs emailed from my iMac.
    There is something odd in this message.
    Even under Lion, Pages 08 is able to open Pages 08 documents created by Pages 09.
    I guess that the OP made a typo and that the docs were created as Pages 09 documents.
    In theory, the availability of iWork 08 on a machine is not supposed to disable the ability to buy Pages 09 thru the MAS because the iWork 08 registration scheme is not the same than the iWork 09 one.

  • I can no longer open numbers and am therefore barred from access to important accounts - what do i do next

    I can no longer open numbers and am therefore barred from access to important accounts.What do I do next?

    Hi mp,
    If you updated to OS X Mavericks, there may have been an automatic update to Numbers 3. Numbers 3 will be in your Applications folder. Numbers '09 has not been replaced. Look for Numbers '09 (Numbers 2.3) in a folder called iWork '09 inside your Applications folder. You can run both versions of Numbers at the same time.
    I have icons for both versions on my Dock. Drag each to the Dock from Applications folder and Applications > iWork '09 folder. Right click on each and Options > Keep in Dock. Now you have the choice of which to use.
    Numbers 2 (3 column chart) on the left. Numbers 3 (4 column chart) on the right.
    If a document won't open, try opening from within each version. Or right click on the document and Open With...
    You can Export a Numbers 3 document back to Numbers '09 with Menu > Export > Numbers '09...
    Post back if you have problems.
    Regards,
    Ian.

    I have had a trial version of Acrobat X1 Pro - I have decided not to buy at this stage - for some time it has been conflicting with opening PDF docs after "saving as" from word 2007 - I uninstalled Pro X1 and now when I "save as" PDF from word 2007 to PDF it will save the document as a PDF but will not open the document to display after publishing - I have to got to where the file has been saved to view the new PDF document - this is really annoying - do I have to delete adobe reader and reinstall it - adobe needs to look at this conflict with acrobat pro as I have even gone it to properties and tried to have adobe reader as the default PDF program - the main issue is that I cannot view the PDF after publishing it from word 2007

  • Unable to open Numbers file in iCloud using Numbers 2.3 (iWorks 09)

    Using my iMac (OS 10.8.5) and Numbers (2.3), I am unable to open a Numbers file built on my iPad2 (7.1.1) and stored on iCloud. I get an error message indicating that I need to upgrade Numbers on the iMac. The version available to download on the App Store is 3.2.2 and seems to require Maverick to run. i don't really want to spend the money on either, but will if I have to obviously. (DISLIKE). Are there other options? And will the upgrade also force me into iOS 8?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Reefkeeper,
    You will need Mavericks to use Numbers 3. I don't use iCloud right now but it seems some users are experiencing difficulties at the moment with the iOS 8 upgrade. To Use Numbers in iCloud you will need iCloud Drive which requires iOS 8 and Yosemite on the Mac. Yosemite is not out yet.
    I sync my Numbers files between my iPod and Mac using iTunes and file sharing. It is a little clunky but gets the job done. You can also email files.
    It has been said on these forums that Numbers 3 is a free upgrade- I can't remember. I don't do a lot of printing or find and replace and Numbrs 3 has suited me very well. It is said to be more applescript friendly and of course that whole cloud thing. '09 will still be on your computer.
