Where do I find an index.xml file to open an existing pages file

as above

You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 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 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages 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 removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

HT1338 I cannot open my existing Pages files any longer. I get a message that my Pages needs to be updated. But when I go to update Pages, I am told I have the latest Pages. Is anyone else having this problem?

I almost always receive the message "[filename] file couldn't be opened" when opening an existing Pages file in iCloud. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I am using a MacBook Pro running Yosemite 10.10.2, using Pages 5.5.2.
I've tried signing off and on, and restarting my MacBook, which sometimes works, but the problem re-occurs. Same problem using Apple Numbers and iCloud.
Opening local files seems to work more consistently.
This issue has made Pages and iCloud fairly useless to me. Does anyone have any ideas how to correct this?
Thanks.

Hi Ibo,
This is what just worked for me:
In Finder, I've dragged all Pages files from the iCloud Drive to the Documents folder on my iMac. (Finder asks your confirmation to remove the files from iCloud; confirm that)
Once they were on my local hard drive, the files could be opened again.
It looks to me as if something has changed in iCloud quite recently, leading to this mess. Not the first time, I've had this before. Now it's back. Sigh. And, as you wrote, it renders iCloud fairly useless. Back to Dropbox I suppose.

Upgrading to the Lion & reinstall again from iWork, the Pages 4.1 worked, however, now every time I open a Page file it keeps opening all the page files

After upgrading to Lion the Pages didn't respond to it. So, I reinstalled the Pages 4.1 from iWork. It worked. However, eversince every time I try open a new or exsisting page file it opens all the pages files that I worked on it last several days or a week. Suddenly many page files on the desktop! Kind of confusing... Can someone help with this issue... Thanks

Personally, I would not recommend deleting/removing the iWorks 09 folder for several reasons: one is that the new versions have had several functionalities removed and until you decide that you can work with the new one and do not miss any features the older version had, I would leave the old one in place. Personally, I will not be using the new versions.
The second reason is that you can accomplish what you want using a different approach: simply open a Get Info window of your document and choose which version of Pages you want this to open in - you can also stipulate that all docs like this are opened with whichever particular version.
FWIW: Once you have edited an old document in the new Pages version, you can no longer open it in the older version. However, you can still export it to the old version.

Pages 08 won't open my old pages file

I just upgraded to Pages 08 and when I try to open the file I was working on yesterday, with the previous version of pages, it says "The document...couldn't be opened". How can I open the old pages file with the new version?

It may be useful to trash the preferences file:
<bootVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist
But I'm afraid that the document is corrupted.
Control click its icon then select the "Show package's contents" in the contextual menu.
The standard contents is:
Contents
QuickLook
index.xml.gz
The described message is displayed when there is no "index.xml.gz" (or "index.xml") file.
It is also displayed when the "index.xml.gz" (or "index.xml") is badly formed.
The index may be dropped when the documents where stored on an iDisk.

When I upgrade to iWork '09 will I be able to open my previous .pages files

YsDa have book manuscripts that I want to be able to work on using my iPad which required iWork '09 since none of my exports from version 1.0.2 was not good enough. So I sort of went into panic mode because the DVD drive in my old PowerBook is sort of wonky and I can't upgrade my so beyond 10.4.11 and now what? But as luck would have it I found a new iWork '09 on eBay (the slightest scratch would not allow an install on my persnickety computer) and it was cheap too! It should be here in a couple of days. So now I worry..
Will I be able to open my old pages files up with the new version??? I have several completed books now up on amazon that I would love in the iBooks store, so I need to be able to open those files. And I have two unpublished manuscripts that I would die a thousand deaths over if I cannot open them ever again.
Has anyone ever run into an opening crisis following an upgrade???

I currently disagree with your suggestion not to write a large document in Pages. At least, so far, with my version 1.0.2! My first book was 8x10 and 440 pages long with 27 full page images. No problems there. The trilogy books are each 6x9 and the shortest is 432 with the largest 500 pages. Again, no problems. Not even with exporting to a pdf file for CreateSpace. And with the one book that was 440 pages long, there were over 100 pages of index. Then when I wanted to create a Kindle book with that index cross-referenced AND entirely clickable, there were thousandSSSSSS of links that I created in Pages. Pages being the ONLY app that could handle the sheer volume of that task. I was impressed. I'm still impressed.
My problem is that my computer...a PowerBook 13" that is was only able to have a grand total of 768 MB of RAM (I know...it's laughable...but that is the way it rolls at top speed). I tried to install more but it wouldn't accept it, being that 1000MB of RAM was it's max and the one chip was soldiered in and I couldn't get it above 768MB. So that's my world. It's limited. And yet, my old Pages and this old computer has done AMAZING things. Actually, amazing,is an understatement.
When I do write, I put placeholders when an image might need to go. The trilogy has an image as a decoration at each chapter. So there are 22 of those in each book too. I originally used low res images to hold that place, but I have one all ready to publish and it has everything in it that it needs and it opens fine.
What I would NOT do is create a gigantic color picture book. I would definitely limit my images. Not only for the sake of being able to open the file, but because it would be too expensive to publish something via CreateSpace in color.
I have tried Libre Office. I was not impressed. Same with Scrivener. Pages has been outperforming them both on all counts. So far. After I try the '09 version, I'll make another assessment of my needs vs software. And I will continue to pray that my little PowerBook will keep running (so far, so good). Even if it's only to use Pages that hasn't been dumbed down and my Photoshop, because it will be a blizzard in you-know-where before I pay Adobe for Photoshop by the month. That just will not happen.
When push does finally come to shove, I will figure out what I'll do then. I'm not even sure I would buy another Mac. There have been too many changes that I don't particularly like enough to pay so much for only to despise. I have always loved Macs because they were Artist friendly. There was so much that could be accomplished using one. They have been worth the expense just to be able to make dreams visible. But now, it seems that the power of the computer is being reduced to that of a cell phone and a tablet and that is just not going in the right direction at all. I am hoping that all changes. Soon.
I've been setting money aside for a new Mac. As the money has accumulated, the Mac's have changed. Not to be what I had wanted though. I am hoping by the time I drop the last dime in the pink piggy there will be a machine that is right for my eclectic purposes. If not, I'll spend a small portion of it on a big PC and spend the rest of it on a cruise.
Thank you all for answering my questions.
Peace.
And say a little prayer that Mac doesn't obliterate the specific needs of artists/musicians/movie makers/writers/animators/and all the others who need more than the bare bones basics to keep us happy.

64 bit Photoshop CS 5.1 Extended crashes every time I create a new file or open an existing file

I installed the 64 bit version of Photoshop CS 5.1 Extended successfully. It opens fully without issue. However, any time I create a new file or open an existing file, it crashes.
I figured this would have something to do with my graphics card, but it still does the same thing after updating the drivers & nVidia software. Seems like my whole trial will end up expiring before I ever even get to use it!! Please help!!
System details:
Windows 7 Home Premium, 64 bit
Service Pack 1
AMD Athlon II X2 215 Processor 2.7 GHz
4 GB RAM
nVidia GeForce 6150SE nForce 430
Thoughts?

Sorry! Something went wrong - I can't open my icloud pages file anymore

I can't open my icloud pages file anymore. We are two collaborators working on it and she told me the file was freezing. I have said she can reload the file but it didn't work. Then it was my turn. I have tried from desktop but also from Ipad. The Pages app now crash when I want to open this same file. When I load my icloud page, I see the file, it is here, with the last layout, but can't open. I need to recover that document, it's important to me. Is there any assistance @apple to do so?
Many thanks!

I have exactly the same issue !! On "Pages", "Numbers", "Keynote"
- Macbook pro retina 13" late 2013

Open an existing Excel file created by Report Generation Toolkit

How would I open an existing Excel file that has been created by the LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit?
Let me explain my application. I have made a test program to collect data on a device. Each time I run the program I want it to append a new row onto an existing data file. Since the tests I do are sometimes over a period of days, I cannot keep the program open and running continuously. So I have to open an existing file and append the new data to it. In technical terms, what I need is to get the 'report out' reference to the existing Excel data file without losing the data that is already there.

For info on accessing Excel do a search in the examples for the word "Excel" you will get an example that shows how to open a spreadsheet and manipulate the data. This should get you started.
