VLC and Keynote sync

Downloaded VLC player, and put some utubes downloaded on my Mac then connected to big TV, can't play, no video but there is sound.
Keynote presentation created from my Mac with sound track and transferred over to iPad, everything is off and no sound, why?
Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It sounds as though you have a conflict of versions, I had a similar occurence, it took some sorting out.
Try this:
Remove the most up to date versions of your documents either by downloading from iCloud.com or by saving to iTunes on the iOS device. Turn off document and data syncing on all devices, turn it back on and change the name of your documents before re-adding them.

Number and Keynote -syncing files

Probably a frequent question but a search didn't turn up anything.
I just purchased Keynote and Number on an iPad. I have several files on my desktop machine that I would like to transfer.
From what I can tell:
1. copy the desired files in to the box on the "apps" tab in iTunes.
2. open app on iPad, click icon at bottom and select "import for iTunes."
so far so good.
What about changes to the document either on the iPad or desktop? Will those changes automatically sync? Or do I have to copy to/from iTunes every time a change is made?
Will the WebDAV or iDisk option provide syncing without having to re-import the document to the iPad?

You're about 4 days ahead of me on this question and I'm wondering the same thing. Coz right now a change on the iPad isn't showing up on the iMac or vice versa.

So, iDisk (great with MobileMe) is closed! Ok. I got the most expensive iCloud Plan and LOVED storing files online. Is that REALLY OVER??!! (besides Numbers', Pages', and Keynote's docs sync).. Will I REALLY have to downgrade to "free" on iCloud?!!

So, iDisk (great with MobileMe) is closed! Ok. I got the most expensive iCloud Plan and LOVED storing files online. Is that REALLY OVER??!! (besides Numbers', Pages', and Keynote's docs sync).. Will I REALLY have to downgrade to "free" on iCloud and PAY for "DropBox", "Google Drive" or "Microsft's Sky Whatever.."?!!
I could not log in to this Support Community with my UPDATED Apple ID (and this is another issue I can't believe Apple just says "NO, you CAN'T!" - deleting other (old) Apple IDs we've created by mistake or a long time ago and being able to have it all on ONE SINGLE UPDATED Apple ID - ALSO saving Apple's storage servers, etc.).
Anyway, my Apple ID for better communication is [email protected] (but I really couldn't log in here - it kept saying that the e-mail is already registered, etc. I know it, I'm trying to use it here, that's all...
So, really. Of course a lot of people don't care about the iDisk issue. That's fine, we all love and hate specific apps or software.. But why has Apple just shut it down, since it was so EASY to use (as DropBox) on all our Apple devices?!! So, we really can't upload/store any kind of files anymore and that's it?!
I used iDisk when MobileMe was still alive, and it was great to have my files from work, home, any backup (whatever we want) uploaded and synced and used in our Macs, iPhones and iPads. If we have the OPTION of an iCloud Plan (the top one, for example), but we just don't like the automatick backups for the iPhones and iPads, nor the Pictures' sync function.. Why can't we just have the SAME simple and efficient/great service of the iDisk installed in each device?!
Do we really have to go back and downgrade back to the free iCloud Option (just for keeping the e-mail) and paying extra for DropBox, Google, Microsoft, any other services?! I have nothing against them - I actually have DropBox and it works great because it REMINDS me of iDisk!! But WHY NOT just keep it simple and closed with 1 company/platform/option - Apple's iOS, OSX, etc.
That's why I decided to have a Macbook Pro, an iPhone 4S and an iPad 3rd. Generation (for example, along with other products and services such as Apple TV).. I know I'm CHOOSING to stay with 1 world, that's fine. And that's why I didn't (yet) go for a Samsung phone or another tablet.. I wanna stick with 1 pattern and I have chosen Apple's..
Just can't understand such an innovative company make such decisions (such as shutting down iDisk or not letting us just DELETE Apple IDs we do NOT use anymore).. Please, just some guidance or confirmation if that's correct: No way of uploading files others than Numbers', Pages' or Keynote's!!??
Thank you very much!!
Peace.

Thank you Roger.
That's exactly what I was afraid of...
During all the time I have been a loyal customer of Apple's products and services, these have been the only 2 issues that I really can't understand (specially when we look at Apple's strategies and management)...
1) Not being able to DELETE (simply delete or deactivate) old or duplicated Apple IDs... I have 3 different Apple IDs but only one is the real Apple ID I use for everything, with all my purchases and services (such as e-mail) related to it (Why won't Apple jus let people delet, deactivate or - at least - merge Apple IDs?! That would help everyone, including Apple when we think about costs, storage, database maintenance, etc.) - Actually, even when I gave up on trying to delete other Apple IDs, I tried to have the one I really use and have organized to use my @me.com address as the Apple ID itself (as Apple asks us to do - and makes sense, of course). But never worked. Just because I created that Apple ID with a @hotmail.com account (since it asks for a valid e-mail when you create an Apple ID, it NEVER lets me now change my Apple ID to my @me.com e-mail address - I mean JUST having my @me.com e-mail address as my primary e-mail and my Apple ID (for example, having that old @hotmail.com e-mail address out of it, cleaned..)!
2) The other issue was this one, about iDisk. Of course there must be reasons for having it shut down, maybe the apps used by iPhone and iPad, along with the folder on Mac OSX, is way too complicated, expensive, full of bugs, I don't know. But if we decide to pay for 50GB of online storage, why even THINK about different options for files we use?! I have Dropbox, I've read about Google Drive and Microsoft SkyDrive, etc. But I just wanted to STICK with a single ALL-APPLE solution.. That is.. Pay the annual fee for the 50GB and just still keep any file I want on the cloud with iDisk. So, what Apple tells me is that if I have other files than iWork or PDF (and some few exceptions), I should actually downgrade to "free" iCloud and decide to PAY for another solution (organization), such as DropBox, Google Disk or Drive (I don't really know), Micrsoft's SkyDrive..
Of course there's the strategy of getting more and more people to use Pages, Numbers and Keynote (buying them for iOS and Mac OSX, as I already have and love them). But "killing" iDisk and just telling users to look for other storage solutions doesn't really sound like Apple.
I have seen so many questions here about both issues (deleting or merging Apple IDS + iDisk back since we pay for storage) that I really believe Apple should reconsider these issues or, at least, open the issue and let us know what would be the best "partner solution" for iCloud...
Thanks a lot!
All the best...

My iWork (pages and keynote) are not communicating with the iCloud. I haven't changed anything and all of the sudden there is no sync happening. My iCloud account is fine as i can create documents on my iPad and they appear on iCloud.

my iWork (pages and keynote) are not communicating with the iCloud. I haven't changed anything and all of the sudden there is no sync happening. My iCloud account is fine as i can create documents on my iPad and they appear on iCloud. However, when i change documents on my mac (documents that are supposed to be in the iCloud), the changes do not sync with my other devices nor with iCloud. Even when i create new documents on my mac and save them to iCloud, all seems okay and i can access them from my mac, however they do not show up in the iCloud and i can't access them with my other devices.
Most recent version of mountain lion updated over a month ago. New iPad in use for over a month.
thanks

The same thing is happening to me, Mail was fine about an hour ago and now is rejecting correct password. Typical when today I'm waiting some important emails!

Keynote and iCloud - sync with iPod

I am using Lion and I have a problem when I begin a document in mac I can upload to icloud fine - the ipod sees it fine. The problem is when ipod closes and updates and I go to icloud to download I don't know where it goes and I don't see any changes in the original document.
If I start with ipod and upload to icloud fine - download to mac - I see it. I work on it and I upload when finished. It goes up and the ipod sees it and tries to bring it in but does not recognize it as same document and saves it with a "1" after the name.
Please advise how to get this to work properly.
I do not have iworks 09 I only have keynote latest version for both ipod and mac

Should Pages and Keynote documents sync in the background?

I am using iCloud to sync Pages and Keynote documents between my iPhone and iPad. The documents sync fine when the apps are open but I was wondering if these changes are supposed to be pushed when the apps are closed. This way, when I disconnect say on the subway, the files are there and up to date. I can't seem to find an answer. If i recall documents used to push when the apps were closed but now they don't. Any advice on how I can remedy? Photo stream and Reminders are syncing in the background.

How can you be sure that reminders and calendars sync in the background, events/reminders will take up perhaps just a few kB and can transfer in fractions of a second after opening the calendar, documents may well be several MB or more and are more obvious if you are looking when you open an app.

My iPad Pages, Numbers, and Keynote apps Stopped Syncing with iCloud Drive

My iPad Air (iOS 8.0.2) is synced with my iCloud Drive, and all of its apps (Notes, Contacts, Calendar, etc.) sync perfectly with iCloud Drive... except for Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.
When I open Pages, Numbers, or Keynote on my iPhone 6 (iOS 8.0.2), my Mac (Yosemite beta), or my iCloud.com page, all files are there and all apps sync perfectly with one another. It's just Pages, Numbers, and Keynote on my iPad that refuses to sync. When I open my iPhone Pages app, I even see the text "Updating" at the top of the screen. But not on my iPad version.
I even factory restored my iPad and started all over again. And for a moment, the Pages app got something. A few docs and one folder appeared. But then it stopped again. And I haven't been able to repeat the process.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Hello lippyloggy,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning iCloud Drive:
Using iWork with iCloud Drive
Options for iWork customers
1. Upgrade to iCloud Drive later this year when OS X Yosemite is available.
Choose this option if you’d like your documents to keep up to date with your apps on OS X Mavericks or earlier. Note that until you upgrade your iCloud account to iCloud Drive, you won’t be able to use the iWork web apps on iCloud.com or the Share via iCloud feature.
If you don’t upgrade to iCloud Drive at this time:
Your documents will keep up to date across devices with iOS 8 and across devices with iOS 7 and Macs with OS X Mavericks or earlier.
You won’t be able to use the iWork web apps on iCloud.com.
You won’t be able to use the Share via iCloud feature.
Documents you previously shared via iCloud won’t be accessible to collaborators until you upgrade to iCloud Drive.
2. Upgrade to iCloud Drive today.
Choose this option if you’d like to use the iWork web apps on iCloud.com and the Share via iCloud feature. To access the most recent versions of your documents from a Mac with OS X Mavericks or earlier, you’ll need to go to iCloud.com and access Pages, Numbers, and Keynote from there. On a PC, you can install iCloud for Windows 4.0and set up iCloud Drive.If you upgrade to iCloud Drive now:
Your documents will keep up to date across devices with iOS 8, Macs with OS X Yosemite, PCs with iCloud for Windows 4.0, and iCloud.com. (OS X Yosemite will be available this fall.)
Your documents will no longer keep up to date on devices with iOS 7 and Macs with OS X Mavericks or earlier.
You’ll be able to use the iWork web apps on iCloud.com.
You’ll be able to use the Share via iCloud feature on iOS 8 and iCloud.com. You’ll be able to use it on OS X Yosemite later this year.
Documents you previously shared via iCloud will be accessible to collaborators.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

How do I configure my iMac to auto sync Pages and Keynote

How do I configure my iMac to auto sync Pages and Keynote documents with iCloud like my iPad and iPhone does. Note I've updated all devices to the latest software and I have iCloud configured for sharing on all but, neither app on my iMac auto finds and sync documents.

Carolyn,
Thanks but, I have iCloud setup and I'm signed into the same account on all devices. I don't think I was clear is stating my problem with or expectations of the iCloud document syncing function. I'm able to create a Pages document (suffix *.pages document) on my iMac and save it in the mobile documents folder but once I access it on my iPad the suffix changes to a "jpg" file and Pages can not open a "jpg" file.
When working on the document on my iPad, the only way I can save it a in the ".pages document" format is to push it though iTunes and then go into iTune on my iMac and save the document down to my destop or document folder. My expectation is that like the iCal, Contacts, Music, and Apps syncing, the document and data functions would be/should be seemless (i.e. same format on the OS platform as it is on the iOS platforms).
It may be a bridge too far to Apple right now but, if they implemented this capability it would be awesome.
Thanks again for your assistance,
R,

(Solved) Having trouble installing vlc and openoffice

I am having trouble installing both VLC and Openoffice.
VLC
I tried typing in:
yaourt -S vlc
At first, it finds the package, and the first time I did it, downloaded quite a bit of stuff, and then it failed after installing a rather large package and then says :
error: failed retreiving file 'vlc-0.9.9a-6-i686.pkg.tar.bz' from archlinux.unix.heads.org : Not Found
Any idea what may be causing this?
OpenOffice
I tried typing in:
yaourt -S openoffice
Then it said it could not find openoffice in my /etc/customizepkg.d and then asks me to change my PKGBUILD and I had no idea what to edit in it.
Then, it tried to install it, and it tells me svn is not found in AUR.
What does this mean and how can I get openoffice?

You need to use the -y flag to update your local repository list.
Ie pacman -Sy
You can conveniently combine all of your tasks..
pacman -Sy vlc openoffice-base
Error retrieving a file means either
A) The mirror you are using is updating itself and you were unlucky enough to sync right when it was doing so.. youll need to wait a little while and try -Sy again then..
B) Related to A.. your database could be either older or newer than the mirror you are using. If you switched mirrors recently, this happens sometimes. Most mirrors update ~daily, but some update ~weekly. -Sy to sync.. you could try -Syy to force a full sync so that even lists of supposedly up-to-date repositories (core,extra,so forth) are synced (doing so is only good/useful if you have problems)..
C) Your mirror is offline.. change it to another one in /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
D) Your internet is not running / your DNS is not working properly.. try to ping a site you know is online to be sure. Google is always a good choice. ping www.google.com. You can ctrl+c to end it if it responds as expected. Fix your internet (see the wiki) and domain name server (/etc/resolv.conf and your router) if you have problems.
You may or may not also wish to pacman -Scc in order to clean out your cache of saved packages in case there is a download problem.
Your post gives the impression you don't understand pacman vs yaourt.. apologies if i'm wrong, but just in case:
Pacman is used for official binary repository files. Yaourt can do pacman's job in addition to its own with the same syntax (imo it does a pretty slow and lousy job of such though), but it's real original function is primarily to install 3rd party / community packages that the Arch devs either can't or won't maintain (and most often, have not "ok"ed them as safe to install). You should look at yaourt in the wiki.. when it asks you to change the pkgbuild I imagine you mean when it says 'what do you want to edit it with?'.. which you dont need to edit it at all. The reason it asks you is because yaourt can install stuff from AUR, which like I said is 3rd party / community stuff that can contain something malicious (AUR is open to submissions, unlike the official repositories) and you are highly advised to look it over for something fishy before compiling and installing. FYI -- believe me, you don't want to compile openoffice without reaaally good reason on a really fast machine. It hurts. Your machine will be as usable as a doorstop for a very long time while it's doing it's business. Just save your time and patience, install the compiled binary via pacman instead.
Please use the wiki, forum search functions, and man pages. Most of the Arch community is friendly and knowledgeable, but people get (rightly) irked when their work maintaining the aforementioned to answer queries like this one are ignored.

My older M-JPEG quicktime movies play black in Quicktime and Keynote

I was just recently asked to give a presentation that I had put together 3 years ago in Keynote. All of my quicktime movies that Keynote were using were M-JPEG and used to all play great the last time I opened my file. Since Then I've updated my OS to 10.7.1, I have a Macbook Pro, Quicktime 10.1, Keynote 09, but also have Quicktime Pro.
When I play my keynote, all of my movies come up black when they play. If I try and open my quicktime movies directly and play them in Quicktime or Quicktime pro, they also come up black. But I can open it in VLC and it plays fine.
I tried to start converting the quicktime movies using SmartConverter, but it's time consuming since I have over 50 quicktime movies that this keynote is referencing. Some of the quicktime movies are also erroring out too when trying to convert them.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to deal with M-JPEG quicktime movies that used to work just fine? Anything I could do across the board to be able to use these rather than converting them all?
Thanks,
Dale

QuickTime in Lion is not reliable as of 10.7.1. The next OS update will fix this. Should be out tomorrow when Apple updates all of its software for iCloud.
See if your problems are gone then.

HT4623 how can i get the numbers and keynote app to work on my imac?Help!

I downloaded the numbers and keynote apps but how do i get them to open and work on my imac or ipad?

If you downloaded the iPad apps in iTunes on your computer, you have to sync them to the iPad. If you downloaded the Mac apps from the Mac App Store, they should open on the Mac, so I think we have to assume that you downloaded the apps for the iPad.
The apps that work on the iPad do not work on the Mac, and the Mac apps will not work on the iPad. The Mac and the iPad have different operating systems so you must purchase the apps for both the computer and the iPad.
If you did buy the iPad apps in iTunes on the Mac - sync them to the device.
Connect the iPad to the Mac and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Apps Tab on the right.
Click on all of the apps that you want to sync in the list
Click on the Sync Apps Heading.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes

How to install Pages, Numbers and Keynote again in iPhone ?

Hi,
I bought an iPhone 6 plus and it comes with pages, numbers and keynote with it.
2 days ago those I accidentally deleted those apps
Now when I wanted to download the Apps again it says $9.99
Given that in my Apple ID I haven't bought those apps.
But I bought the iPhone that comes with those apps
So I thought I should be able to re download it
Is there a way to restore those apps without purchasing them?

Did you ever back up our phone to your computer? if yes, those app should be part of the iTunes library. Sync them again to your device.
You could also try to set your device back to factory settings and see if the apps are installed during this process.

Pages, Numbers, and Keynote

I recently updated my iPhone to iOS 8 and while I was doing this I noticed I could get Pages, Numbers, and Keynote for free on my phone. I remember they were supposed to be free on my macbook pro when I bought it but I never downloaded them when I got the computer and now I see that they are all 19.99. Why are they not free for the computer anymore? Since I downloaded them to my phone will they transfer to my mac when I sync? I'm a little afraid to sync and lose them. I know that may sound silly. Does anyone have insight on any of this? Thanks for any help you can give.

iOS apps will not run on a Mac. Mac apps will not run on your iOS devices. You can store iOS apps in the iTunes content library on a Mac or PC for safe keeping and syncing to multiple iOS devices.
If you qualify for free Mac versions of the iWork apps with the purchase of a new Mac, they would have been in the Purchases pane on the Mac App Store after signing into your store account. You would have been able to accept them into your account and download them.

Ipad2 tried to update numbers and keynote apps, now can't access either and message says unable to download ?

Tried to update app's numbers and keynote, now can't access either of them and message says app can't be uploaded at present, so now both apps just show blank download bar, and I can't open them up at all. Can anyone help ?

Remember that you can always try finishing the downloads in iTunes on your computer and then sync the iPad to try to move the apps to the iPad.
You can try any of these suggestions as well.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6. Everything converted fine until I deleted an app in error. When I downloaded it from iTunes, my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers. Can I go back and re-sync one app from my old phone?

I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6. Everything converted fine. Yesterday I deleted an app in error. When I downloaded the software it from iTunes ( did this many times on the old 3GS), my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers (Playtika), even though it did after the initial conversion. Can I go back and re-sync just one app from my old phone?

Try deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache.
