When I am done with Pages, Quit doesn't work

After I am finished working on a Pages document, saving, printing, etc.  I choose either command-q or File--> quit, Pages just highlights file and doesn't quit.
This is rather annoying, I let the software do this for a while thinking that it might be just running slow, but it just will not  quit.  So, I choose force, either from the menu or command-option-esc.  Pages is listed, it is not listed as not responding, I force quit, but this could lead to serious problems.
Pages will start back okay the next time I need it, but still not a good way to bring Pages down.
Has anyone seen this or had it happen to them.  I have seen it on a couple of identical MacBook Pros.

  • Always open with Pages '09 doesn't work? (Pages 3.0)

    i have a copy of Pages '09 and a copy of Pages 3.0 on my MBP. unfortunately my Mac Pro only goes up to Lion so i cannot use 3.0 and this machine cannot /read/ 3.0 pages document.
    consequently, i would like to almost always open Pages documents with the 09 version or i would like to temporarily unload 3.0 so that i don't end up with a mess of files that only open on my laptop.
    unfortunately when i right click on a PAGES document and go to PAGES 09 and check "Always Open With" - this single document opens with pages 09 but other pages documents seem to open with pages 3.0.
    am i missing something here or is this the intended implementation? i mean, can i set pages documents on this computer ot always open with 09 unless i manually tell it to open with 3.0 or am i somehow supposed to tell every pages file on my HD to open with 09 (which is obviously not workable).
    any ideas on what i am missing or if my system is acting buggy.
    thanks

    hi T.
    thanks a bunch.
    somehow i forgot this fact.
    does seem like for new users they could put a prompt in Open With Other to direct people to Get Info and in Get Info they could put a prompt to direct people to Open With Other in the event one has one workflow need as opposed to the other. this is a pretty basic user need, there is nothing obvious in the prompts that tells you what in fact you are doing, and even after having been back on the mac for a number of years now it is not one i remember even when working in the UI.
    again many thanks.

  • When forced quit doesn't work???

    What do I do when forced quit doesn't work?? This happens occasionally when something freezes, like Logic did today. I force quit, and wait... and wait... and nothing happens. I try and restart and it keeps coming up with the same window: Logout timed out, please force quit to continue or cancel.
    Anyways I hit force quit over and over and nothing happens. I resolve to holding the button and manually restarting the computer. How can I get this thing to force quit?!!
    - All updated
    - Repaired permissions
    - Repaired disk (nothing was wrong anyways)

    Funny you should ask as I had the EXACT same problem this afternoon.
    I had to do a hard restart.
    But, then I got the gray spinning startup.
    So, I had to restart from my backup drive (thank you SuperDuper!).
    Then, 5 minutes later my internal hard drive reappeared.
    Then, I restarted from my internal drive.
    I had this problem in April (I took notes) and Apple replaced my hard drive.
    Your mileage may vary.

  • When I'm done with my fcp sequence, whats the best way to get it to dvd?

    When I'm done with my fcp sequence, whats the best way to get it to dvd?

    The advice to go to Compressor left out the part that you may want to convert your audio to AC3 becaus ethe MPEG2 bitrate is probably too high for DVD specs.
    This method is in the DVDSP manual and it's in the Compressor manual, both difficult to locate, but easily searchable.
    Here's what I'd do: Export the timeline form FCP in the native sequence settings, self-contained. Bring that self-contained movie into DVDSP and let DVDSP handle the transcode.
    The advice to go to iDVD is even easier.

  • When I try and download pages it doesn't download??

    When I try and download pages it doesn't download??it says "you've already purchased this,so it will be downloaded now at no additional charge"and then it doesn't download what should i do???

    Try a couple of different things. Start by resetting your iPad. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen and then let go of the buttons.
    If you can't download Pages then, sign out of your ID, restart the iPad, sign in again and try the download again. Settings>iTunes & App Store. Tap on your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad.
    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>iTunes & App Store. Sign in and them try to download Pages again.

  • Why does my iPad hang when writing an email?  When I'm done with the email, I can't send it out and have to re-boot the iPad.

    Why does my iPad hang when writing an email?  When I'm done with the email, I can't send it out and have to re-boot the iPad. This happens if the time to compose email exceeds 10 to 15 minutes.

    Shut down all programs that are running in the background.
    1. Double-click the Home button to see Apps in background
    2. Hold the Apps down for a second or two until you see the minus sign
    3. Tap the minus sign to close program
    4. Reset iPad. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 second until you see the Apple logo
    Suggest you perform Step 1 to 3 at the end of every day.

  • Force Quit Doesn't Work/Freezing, Crashing

    Oy. So I have to put this in context. Clutz that I am I dropped my Macbook Pro a year ago. Resulted in a cracked screen, screwed up optical drive and LED light/audio issues. Other than that it worked. It finally decided to clock out over the summer. Spent the money to get a new logic board(they pretty much gave me new computer and put my stuff on it). A few weeks after I got it back(and am now 4hrs away from nearest Apple store) It would freeze ocassionally(SBBD), no big deal, I'll force quit. Or reinstall that program(back then it was usually Mozilla Firefox, now it's kind of any program). As time has gone on it started freezing more frequently and force quit is no longer working. Had to look up what to do when force quit doesn't work, but the thing is, EVERYTHING freezes. I can usally click on a program(activity monitor) all I want, but it wont open. So this all results in having to force shut down, and it kills me inside to do that. Sooo I can wait until I'm back home and take this baby back to Apple, but I figured I'd give this a shot.
    Should have mentioned this, I recently uprgraded to Mountain Lion about a month ago, hoping it would help. Worked for a while...but no such luck.
    Programs that seem to crash most:
    Sibelius
    Mozilla Firefox
    Google Chrome
    iTunes
    Microsoft Word

    Forgot mention the important part. Was forced to force shutdown last night. Then I turned it back on. It got stuck on the white boot up page with Apple logo and loading circle for about 15 minutes. Fans were really load. Shutdown again and left it off all night. This morning I try it again and it makes an odd noise and till gets stuck on white screen for about five minutes Then it turns grey, and then it turns on.

  • Custom Page Sizes doesn't work

    I have set up a few custom page sizes but when I try to used them, it doesn't work. Well once in blue moon it does.
    I can't find a consistent way that it does. I have read all the online help and followed the process to the letter, but when I select the page size under Paper Size it doesn't change the paper size.

    J,
    There definitely are problems with Custom Page sizes. I don't have enough specifics to formulate what I would consider good feedback to Apple, something that they could easily act on.
    I can tell you that if you set your System Preferences > International > Formats > Measurement Units: US and Set your Pages > Preferences... > Rulers > Ruler Units: Inches, you can create the size you want and it will stay selected and not pop back to the default. Here's what I have:
    Again, I know that there's a problem. If you wish, you can use the setup I outlined and get the job done and later take up the cause of fixing whatever is going on with the CM units.
    To Fruhulda, you noted that 9 cm by 6 cm is a size that fails as J described - and I confirmed here. However to get a successful size I found that I could use 3.53" X 2.35" (8.97CM X 5.97CM), a very close compromise. There clearly are problems with measurement units in Page Setup.
    Regards,
    Jerry
