Unable to open pages between MAC and iPad

Since yesterday I have been unable to open new pages documents on my MAC that where wriiten on my IPAD.
No updates are required on either system.
My Mac is Mountianlion Osx 10.8.5     pages 09 4.3
My Ipad IOS 7.0.4            pages 2.0.1
when i click on document my MAC tells me in order to open I need to buy a version of Pages / is this correct?
forgive me for sounding stupid

Hi Sarah,
Sounds like you need to update Pages, the latest version is 5.0.1.

  • Synching Pages between Mac and Ipad 2

    I  use Pages to work on a document and then place in the File Sharing section of iTunes to copy the file to my iMac. However, if I then make additonal changes to the document on the iMac I cannot update the file in my iPad by copying over the original file in File Sharing.  How do I synch a Pages document to the iPad2 from my Mac.

    Note: You cannot download a document from icloud.com to to your Mac or Windows computer until the document has been previously opened on an iOS device.

    How do I set up pages for mac and ipad to share a document and keep them synced.

    You can upload them from Mac to iCloud and then download on the iPad. They only directly sync between iOS devices. The Mac version of Pages has more options that are not available on iOS. If you use a font that is not available on iOS it will change the font. Some layout options aren't available either.

  • FaceTime between Mac and iPad with one iCloud account?

    I moved my MobileMe account to iCloud and want to set up my Mac so I can call my new iPad with FaceTime. In the iCloud system preferences I have "Mail and Notes" unchecked but the sole email account in Mail preferences is pointed to the iCloud mail server and I am receiving Mail. The account appears in Mail and seems to be functioing normally.  If I check the "Mail and Notes" option in the system preferences a second iCloud Mail account appears in Mail with identical contents to the one that is there with this option unchecked. I'd rather not have this duplicate set of mailboxes in Mail so I'm leaving the option unchecked (is this OK?). I added my AOL address as a second email address to my Apple ID so I can use my AIM account with FaceTime and have set FaceTime to receive calls to my AIM address and I have added a contact with my iCloud email address.
    On my iPad, I have set up FaceTime to receive calls to my iCloud email address and added a contact with my AIM address. This set up works when calling my Mac from my iPad but does not work the other way. How do I get it to work in both directions?
    Thanks for any insights.

    In partial answer to my own question, it seems that Mail and Notes option in iCloud system prefs on the Mac should be checked. The duplicate account that is then created in Mail (which points to the original account so it's not really a duplicate, as CS1sound  pointed out to me) can be disabled in the Mail program prefs. This eliminates the dual mailbox sets in Mail.
    Regarding the FaceTime calling between my Mac and iPad, that seems to have been resolved as well. The FaceTime iCloud account required more characters than the password for the old MobileMe account. This was unknown to me until I tried to view the iCloud account from within FaceTime preferences, when I got a message saying I needed a longer password. When I entered the new password it updated the FaceTime password and also updated my iCloud password (the password associated with my Apple ID). So now everything seems to be working nominally.
    For others experiencing problems with FaceTime calling between Mac and iPad I suggest making sure your Apple ID password is at least 8 chars long, has letters (at least one cap) and at least one numeral. (This is the spec my FaceTime error message provided). Then attach an AIM  address to your Apple ID as a "rescue" email address. Apple ID will send an email with a verification link to this address which must be clicked and this account will then be associated with your iCloud account (along with your original iCloud email address). Next, set the iPad up to use the iCloud email for Mail and FaceTime and create a FaceTime contact with (which receives calls to) the AIM address, for calling the Mac. Then set the Mac up to use the iCloud email address for Mail and set FaceTime up with the iCloud email, but with a "receives calls at" address pointing to the AIM account, then create a contact with the iCloud address, for calling the iPad.
    Posted this because I saw others have had the same problem. Sorry for the verbosity but this is just a blow by blow recounting of what I did. I hope some of the board gods and moderators will vet this for mistakes. I don't want to mislead any fellow pilgrims, but it worked for me .

  • Multiple display between Mac and Ipad

    I have an IPAD with latest IOS system and a Mac with Maverick.
    Would multi display works between Mac and Ipad?
    If so, where can I found manual or instruction to make it works?
    Thanks.

    You'd have to use something like DisplayPad to do that. I have it set up on my system and its working great under Mavericks (it wasn't supported under Mountain Lion on my system).
    Good luck.

  • How to synchronise the fonts between mac and ipad in the keynote app?

    I use Keynote on both Mac and iPad machines. Unfortunately, the font set in iPad is quite different than in Macbook and because of that, every presentation must be re-writen while changing the device. This is a bit annoyent and I cannot find the solution.

    Only use fonts on your Mac that you know are available on the iPad.

  • Pages on Mac and iPad reported different

    On my iMac I am using:  OSX 10.7.5 with Pages '09 v 4.2 (Part of  iWork package originally bought for loads of money on DVD - and subsequently updated through Mac update) Now offered at a more modest but additional price as a separate application to the same version level.
    On the iPad 2: I bought the iPages App  recently updated to iOS 6
    When I upload a file to the iPad through iCloud I get a Pages icon on the iPad which when opened it says this may be different so open another copy.
    My questions:
    Do I need to keep both copies of the Pages document on the iPad 2?
    Will they still sync through iCloud? 
    Are there any other problems if I delete the original uploaded document?
    By The Way
    Why doesnt Apple treat the original copy of Pages as the initial copy of the App?  Is this the incompatibility?
    Thanks

    I have the exact same setup and I can tell you you're in for frustration. iWork for Mac and iWork for iOS are similar but completely different applications that use different incompatible files. iWork for iOS doesn't support a myriad of features from the Mac version. The main thing is fonts... iOS only has a few fonts so it will convert any font not supported. I've also encountered problems with tables, headers, footers, floating graphics, floating text boxes, and imported Numbers charts.
    Then there's the file size bug. Any file from iOS downloaded from iCloud or emailed to your Mac will expand by 5Mb when converted to the Mac version. Looking inside the files, iWork Mac added 13 background color files, each weighing in at 400Kb. A simple totally blank Pages iOS file will grow from 28Kb to 5.1Mb on the Mac when converted. I've dug through the program and can't seem to find a fix, other than cut-n-paste to a new document and trash the iOS file.
    I agree with Peter. The Mac version is the full blown iWork and the iOS version is just a subset. Personally, I avoid docs on iCloud and opt instead for DropBox to sync files between my Mac and Macbook. That works flawlessly. I treat the iPad version as a separate app and export to Word and Excel and email the files to my Mac. That gets around the 5Mb file issue but then I have to reformat everything again.
    All of this has lead me back to using Office for stuff I need mobile access to. With the new SkyDrive and online Office apps, it's a much more fluid workflow and I haven't had any compatibility issues either. But that's another thread.

  • Sync Highlight in PDF file between Mac and iPad

    I need to read hundreds of PDF articles/books(downloaded from non-apple sources) on Mac(OS X 10.9.5) and iPad(iOS 7.2). Problem is that marking/highlight done in PDF file in iPad using Adobe reader/Foxit/TinyPDF or any other PDF reader can not be synced to Mac. iBook in iPad has no function of highlight/underline for third party PDF files. I can open file from Google drive or Dropbox in to Adobe reader or any third party PDF reader but once I do highlight or marking in it, that file can not be saved back to dropbox/google drive, hence I can not view that file with highlight/marking in my mac. As per my knowledge iCloud drive in iOS 8 and OS X 10.10 also have same limitation.
              Tried  other apps like Mendeley(size limit of 50 mb), Evernote (insert PDF file in evernote - but built in PDF reader is useless for large files with >1000 pages). Still could not find solution . Can you please help me out?  

    Have you looked at Goodreader?

  • Photo count discrepancy between Mac and IPad

    On my Ipad, I have 392 photos in My PhotoStream, but on my Mac the Photostream says 477.
    Why the discrepancy?

    Are you able to view all 3 of those photos in the full size mode? 
    One thing you can try is Try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - Run Option #1, Repair Permissions, followed by Option #4,  Repair Database, if needed.

  • Unable to stream Videos from Mac and IPad 3 to TV

    My Apple TV (1.Generation) is starting to work bad after an update.
    I am no longer able to stream videos from IMac nor IPad 3 or IPhone 4.
    Can anybody give me a help.
    Thanks.

    Not sure if I'm missing something here. AirPlay is the newer audio video streaming technology Apple implemented into their devices. Airplay video from a computer requires a newer Mac running Mountian Lion and a 2G or higher ATV. Streaming video from iTunes to a 1G ATV still works, it is similar to AirPlay but is technically not the same thing.
    Streaming video from an iPad or iPhone to an Apple TV is using AirPlay and also requires using a 2 or 3G ATV. These are hardware limitations no HDMI cable can fix.
    If you can not stream video from iTunes by selecting it on your Apple TV you have a problem. If you are trying to send video to the ATV by selecting it on a device you need a new ATV and/or computer.

  • Ouldn't sync Ibook between mac and IPad after upgrade to X10.9

    Couldn't sync the ibook after after the OS to X10.9

    hi dan,
    well, from what i've read, it says every time i sync and after it goes over some memory quota, apparently it starts to charge for every sync, etc.
    what do you think?
    and i am thinking OTA refers to "over the air" right? (guessing!)
    thank you!

  • I'm opening up my Mac and it is going straight to Word for Mac and randomly opening multiple pages automatically.  I am unable to control it.  I think there is a problem.  I'm desperate to get into my work - any ideas?

    I'm opening up my Mac and it is going straight to Word for Mac and randomly opening multiple pages automatically.  I am unable to control it.  I think there is a problem.  I'm desperate to get into my work - any ideas?

    If you close all the windows and quit word, next time you restart, DO NOT check "Reopen windows on login".
    Also, check your login items for your user account.
