When I save pages documents from my iPad I cannot open in on my macbook.

I updated to Mavericks OX, as well as the latest pages. It says I need a new version of pages, but I have the latest: "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document."
I took it to the apple store and thay sait it was a glitch that they will likely have resolved. How loing will I have this issue? Is there a fix?

Telling us you have the "latest" tells us nothing, because we don't know what you think that means.
In case you do in fact have Pages 5.01, the problem is that you probably also have an older version in your Applications/iWork folder and are opening your iPad document with the older Pages not the newer.
You will find the newer version in your Applications folder.
Apple helps this along nicely by giving two entirely different file formats the same file extension ".pages"

    What do I need on my MacMini to import Pages documents from an iPad-mini?

    Plug in your iPad mini to the Mac mini. Open iTunes on the Mac. Select your iPad from the sidebar on the left. At the top, where it says "Summary," etc. choose Apps. Scroll down until you see a section for File Sharing. Find Pages. Select the document on the right. In the bottom right corner, select "Save to..." and choose where on your computer you want to save it.

    What version of iOS are you using?  Some people were having this problem before, and it was fixed when they updated to iOS 5.

    How can you delete a Pages document from your Ipad but keep it on your MAC?

    You will need to keep them in folder on your hard drive somewhere other than in iTunes or they will be deleted from iTunes if you delete them from the device. I have a folder on my Mac called iPad Pages Documents - very original don't you think!
    Here is the support article that explains it all.

  • I can no longer email pages document from my ipad since last update. they sit in outbox

    I am no longer able to email documents created using "Pages" from my ipad. All emails sent within pages go to my out box and sit there with a big yellow exclamation mark next to them. This has only recently started happenning, since the last time I updated "Pages". Has anyone else had similar problem?

    Hi tikijack,

  • How do I turn off auto cap when editing a pages document on my iPad?

    When I use Pages on my iPad and touch the screen to insert a new word it always starts in upper case as if a new sentence. It does this even if I am in the middle of a sentence. Can I turn this off?

    I have some vague memory of people solving this problem by putting a piece of clear tape with an appropriate hole in it over the headset jack. But, it's only a very vague memory. You might try searching the forums for older entries.
    I don't use Apple headsets (hate 'em) but don't have this problem. Depending on how attached you are to your current headset, you might want to experiment with others. I've used both the Shure E2c and Etymotic ER6i without any problem.

  • Can see my documents on the Ipad but cannot open them

    Hi I need help. Since a few days I still have all my documents in the cloud but first they all dissapeared from my IOS devices (Iphone4 and Ipad2). After a few times deleting the Iwork apps and reinstalling they finally came back but I cannot open the documents. they have a light grey background and just dont come up properly. I tried almost everything and it is driving me crazy. also my lates numbers document I created on my Ipad didnt upload to the cloud. Did anyone else have these issues? can anyone help???
    thanks so much

    We need more info:
    What system are your running?
    How much free space do you have on your boot drive?
    In the meantime try this:
    Try to open your domain file with the script that Cyclosaurus has provided us below  that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    Just launch the applicaiton, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • Can I print a page document from an iPad?

    I have a WiFi printer. Can I print a "Page" and "Number" documents?

    If you have an AirPrint compatible printer, you can use AirPrint which is built into the iOS. If you printer is on this list it will work with AirPrint.
    AirPrint 101
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    If your printer is not one from that list, you will need a third party app in order to use your printer. There are a number of printing apps available ... Print and Share, Print Central .... Search the App Store for more.

  • I have numerous documents in PAGES2009 which I cannot open on my new Macbook Air with latest iWork programs.  Is there a "fix" or do I need to buy iWork 2009 (or at least PAGES2009) to be able to open my old documents?

    Can current PAGES be used to open documents created in PAGES2009?

    Yes with some caveats, but probably your documents are actually Pages '08 format which Pages 5.2 can not open.
    You need to open them in Pages '09 or export them from Pages '08 to Word .doc/docx.
    If you had iWork '09 before are you sure you don't still have it in your Applications/iWork folder?
    You are aware that Pages 5.2 is a lobotomised version, missing over 110 features?

  • When I try to open a Pages document from iCloud, created on my iPad, I get message stating I need a newer version of Pages.  When I go to app store all I get is "installed" when looking at pages app. my Macbook pro is up to date with all updates.

    When I try to open a Pages document from iCloud, created on my iPad, I get message stating I need a newer version of Pages.  When I go to app store all I get is "installed" when looking at pages app. my Macbook pro is up to date with all updates. Any ideas?

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5/5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.1 sometimes can not open its own files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has not only managed to confuse all its users, but also itself.
    Note: Apple has removed over 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • Getting Pages document from Mac to Pages on iPad

    I have been trying to import Pages documents from my Mac to my iPad throughh iTunes and I'm having no success. I go to apps in iTunes and under file sharing Pages shows up. I click add and navigate to the file. It seems to do something but when I go to Pages on the iPad it isn't there. However in iTunes I can still copy it back to my computer from the iPad even though it couldn't be found on the iPad itself. Also I thought that the tutorial document should be visible in iTunes as well where the file sharing is but it doesn't show up either. This situation also occurs with Numbers and Keynote as well. Any ideas?

    On the iPad open Pages and go to the screen where all your Pages document are... You will see a folder in the upper right. Click on that folder you should find your imported Pages document. Click on the document and it will import to Pages. The same holds true with keynote and numbers.
    You can delete the document from that folder if you don't need to import it again...this will save space on your iPad.

  • When I send a pages file from my ipad to my mac i can edit the file but when i try to print it shows blank why

    when i send a pages file from my ipad to my mac, i can edit the file but if I try to print it shows blank and will not print anything

    Is there a reason you are not storing your Pages documents in iCloud?  That would work for both your MacBook and iPad if you choose to use it (assuming your MacBook is new enough to support an OS X version that supports iCloud).
    If you choose this method, any updates you make on one device would immediately be made available on the other (once you close the file).

  • Pages 2.0.2 doesn't open Pages documents from ipad

    Pages 2.0.2 doesn't open Pages documents from ipad 2. Document succesfully transferred as Pages document to computer, but Pages 2.0,2 wouldn;t open it. Version too old?

    Pages 2 is iWork '06, two versions behind what the iOS Pages creates. You need to use Pages '09 which you can purchase from the Mac App Store as a stand-alone application or a retail box of the iWork '09 suite.

  • How can I save my document from pages to a flash drive?

    How can I save my document from pages to a flash drive?

    Locate the file on your Mac, plug in the USB stick (the mac should prompt you to open it, or do this automatically), click and drag the file from the computer (wherever it's saved to) to the USB folder. That's just putting an already saved file there.
    To save it TO your USB stick, find it in the Save To diolog on the sidebar. Click it, then save it there.
