Unable to send a Word document to iCloud to use it on my iPad wit iWorkd

All of a sudden, iCloud stopped working.
I used it to send documents back and forth between my iPad and my PC. Today, when I tried to send the document I worked on yesterday to iCloud, it gives me an error message stating that "there was a problem sending the document" and that I should "wait a bit and try it later". I did it but it still is not working and I need it.
What alternatives to iCloud can I use to send that document to my iPad? On the iPad, I used iWorks. Lots of people have told me marvels of DropBox. Can I use it as an alternative to iCloud?
Thanks

Hey, discard this question. I just did it with DropBox and it was as easy and quicker than with iCloud.

How do you actually save a word document in icloud?

Word docs won't be dragged and dropped into icloud box on my mac. I bought the stupid pages app and then iwork from apple thinking that might help, as docs could be saved in Pages format and retrieved on my iPhone. But pages docs can't be password protected, so sensitive documents - such as those containing bank details and the like - can't be saved via the cloud to access on my phone.
With iDisk this was possible. What's the alternative, since Pages is an inferior program in so very many ways to Word?

Word documents can be saved in iCloud, although they will be converted to pages documents when opened on an iOS device. If you are having problems dragging and dropping your Word documents onto iCloud.com, try a another word format.
Pages documents do not require password protection when in iCloud, because iCloud itself is password protected.

Still unable to edit a word document after conversion from pdf?

I converted a pdf file to a word document but am still unable to edit the word document and save as a newly created word document. please help, thanks.

Hi Disc9,
In order to help you. Let me know which application of Adobe you are using including the version.
Also let me know the complete workflow how you convert the PDF to docx/doc.
Regards.

Microsoft Word - Times New Roman will not print from my iMac. People send me Word documents, I must select all and choose another font. How can I fix this?

When anyone sends me a Word document via email as an attachment and I attempt to print it out, my printer always spits out a blank page. All Word documents seem to arrive using Times New Roman font. I must then return to the document, select all, reassign a different font, and it then prints okay. How can I fix this? It appears that Times New Roman font is part of my Font Book, and each version of the font (Italic, etc.) appears there in duplicate.

harpnt
Open the Font Book again, select the Times New Roman font set.
You'll see the duplicate warning. Select the fonts and go up to the EDIT menu,
and go down to RESOLVE DUPLICATES.
You might check for other duplicates while you're there, and resolve them.
RESTART your Mac to have the changes take effect.
Then try your docs again.
Any better.

I cn't download saved word documents from icloud to my mac? Why?

I use Word for Mac as my word processor. I'm a writer and publishers only want word .doc documents. I can upload to icloud but not download my word documents and icloud doesn't appear as a source for documents neither on the Pages nor the Word menu. why? and what can I do?

At http://icloud.com , navigate to the iWork page,and click on the relevant folder in the toolbar:
Click your file once to select it: click 'Download' and choose an option.
More information at http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm9d23dae8
However, once a file has been uploaded from your Mac you cannot re-download it until it's been edited on an iOS device, which may well make this process unsuitable for your requirements. You may find DropBox a better bet.

You may first want to look into Safari's "Installed Plugins" section within the browser. This is (usually) found under the Safari Help header in the top of a browser. I say usually, because I don't use Safari often and mine is an older version. They handle applications and plugins like most others, to a point.
I see in Safari Installed Plugins that mine would use
application/pdf
Acrobat Portable Document Format
Acrobat Reader & reader plugin v9.5.5 for web browsers
(in Safari 5.x, where I looked into this)
While I use FireFox, SeaMonkey (Mozilla) and others, where I can choose in preferences the helper applications to open from the browser, Safari has different methods; so if you can change this in the preferences or settings of Safari in a later version I am not certain.
You could see what the defaults are by using Safari help menu to open the Installed plugins, and maybe find out what happend to Adobe reader plugin. Could be it was 'sandboxed' in a later OS X and needs to be installed differently to be accepted as safe.
It is easier to set how a file type is handled once it is inside the computer and not held in the browser; by file type in general or specific to each single document. I do both, and seldom let an a browser do these things due to security considerations. I download and open them, only then if I feel they are safe.
Sorry to not have a specific answer for that anomaly.
Good luck & happy computing!

I uploaded an rtf (word) document to icloud, but when I try to open in Pages, I get a message that it does not support rtf format. What is going on?

Supported file formats for iOS Pages
Import:
Pages ’09 for Mac
Microsoft Word - Office Open XML (.docx) and Office 97 or later (.doc)
Plain Text files (.txt)
Export:
Pages ’09 for Mac
Microsoft Word (.doc)

As you can see - .rtf is not supported.

How do I find word documents on iCloud?

I have logged on to icloud but when I click on iWork, the only tabs are for keynote, numbers and pages. There is no tab for word documents but then how do I access word documents on iCloud?

I have no idea as I am not ever going to use a Cloud system for storing my personal files. I have computers for that. Your best bet would be to use Google and type in "Uploading files to Apple's iCloud system". I bet you will get all the info you could ever ask for.
Good Luck and Best Wishes

How to save a word document in Icloud

is there a way to save a Microsoft Word documetn in ICloud? or do I have to purchase IWork ?

Dropbox is a proven tool that even provides a month's worth of incremental backup. It will also warn you if more than one person opens a given document and makes changes at the same time. That warning is important, but it's still a pain to work through the differences if a collision occurs, so that's why I recommend never actually revising an old version, but rather beginning a new one. Mountain Lion makes that easy with Locking and Duplicate.

Can i store a word document in icloud and retrieve on my ipad 2?

Can I store a windows word doc in my icloud and retrieve it on my ipad 2? how do I access icould on a windows pc?

This feature cannot be turned off. It is almost "Microsoft-ish" as far as I am concerned .... In the way that Word wants to turn every email address that you type in a document to blue. However, I change it in Word, but you can't turn it off on the iPad.
Thats just way the way the mail app and the notes app work with the iOS and it cannot be disabled.

How can I send a word document as the body of email

I have documents that are based on Word Templates that I wish to send to clients. The documents require a reply with input in a table that needs completed by the client.
I understand there is a way to make the Word document in effect become the email and sent through TB.
Can someone explain what I need to do i.e. settings in Word and TB.
I don't want to send the documents either as pdf or attachment.

How at send a Word document as an email attachment from an ABAP program?

Hi all,
i got request to develop background run program which check which staff is due CONFIRM and able to attach confirmation form (Microsoft Word file) to HR and CC staff manager as recipients.
I try almost all relevant FM but still face problem below, please assist.
1) FM SO_DOCUMENT_REPOSITORY_MANAGER

Seeing only "W" when I upload a Word document to iCloud

Word documents worked in the past as I have severel uploaded but now when I upload a short Word document, the icon shows a sheet of paper with a big W in the middle instead of a mini icon with the format of the uploaded document.
Using Microsoft Word 2007.

You need to have Pages app on one of your iOS devices that connect to the icloud account, then you will be able to sync your word documents from your Mac to icloud. Log into icloud.com, go to iWork page and upload your doc files to that web page.
