  • Help! Can't email pages document in pdf

    I'm trying to send a one-page letter that is to be inserted into a book.  The recipient needs the document in PDF format.  I saved it in PDF but when I try to attach it, the whole text prints out into the email instead of a link to an electronic pdf file.  I am able to attach an electronic file of the Pages version, just not PDF.  I'm using Hotmail and a 2011 MacBook Air with Pages '09 version 4.3.

    BCG,
    You are sending a PDF file. It's a feature of Mac Mail, and perhaps other email clients, that the content of a 1-page pdf is displayed automatically, but be assured there is an attachment there that your recepient can save and work with normally.

  • Can not email pages document as pdf

    Every time that I try to send pages doc as pdf, I get the following message: Couldn't create message attachment.  iwork encountered an error while attempting to create the attachment data.

    Greetings Paulydf,
    It seems you are experiencing an issue when attempting to send documents via email from Pages. Keep in mind that emailing from Pages requires your email account to be associated with the Apple Mail app. Are you currently using Apple Mail? The user guide may help in this situation:

    You can call Apple with the Serial# handy, & possibly get the original Install Discs cheap, or...
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...

    It looks like they might still have it...

  • Why can't I share documents via email in pdf format any longer?

    Why can't I share documents via email in pdf format any longer?

    I am guessing you are using an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch. This is the forum for MacBooks, the computer, so the mail works differently.
    You will want to ask your question in the correct forum.

  • Why can't i save documents made in Pages in iCloud?

    When I make a new document in Pages and want to save it, there is no option to save it in iCloud. What must I do to be able to do that?

    Only Mountain Lion has that feature.  If you are using Lion, then you'll have to log into icloud.com with your mac and go to the iWork page.  There you can upload your Pages document.  However, it will not be available if you don't have Pages iOS on one of your devices that are connected to the same account.

  • TS4213 Why can't iPhoto, Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iTunes Library files and Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iPhoto Library files now that I upgraded to '11?

    Why can't iPhoto, Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iTunes Library files and Pages, Numbers, Keynote and iMovie access my iPhoto Library files now that I upgraded to '11?
    Examples of what is going on:
    1. In Pages, Numbers & Keynote, when I go to the media browser the Audio section reads "Open iTunes to populate this list" even after iTunes has been opened, .xml file has been replaced/repaired, etc  AND Photo section reads "Open iPhoto to see photos from your iPhoto Library in this list" even after iPhoto Library has been replaced and new default library created.
    2. In iMovie, similar thing ... when I go to add photos or music to a movie the iTunes files aren't present and the iPhoto photos are missing with similar messages as in #1.
    3. In iPhoto, similar thing ... when I go to add music to a slideshow it says to "Open iTunes to populate this list".
    It is shocking to me that Apple would let something as simple as a pathway link to associated library files get this messed up on an upgrade, but what's even more surprising is that with the number of people who seem to be having this particular issue (and I can tell from all the research that I've done for weeks online that there are a lot of them) that there doesn't seem to be a single clear answer to fixing it anywhere on these community support forums.  Most of what I've seen is rehashed advice from outdated issues.  What I need is a simple answer to how do we get these programs to look for the correct location of the photo and music files because I sure can't seem to find any logical place to do that through the programs' preferences files or the system preferences window?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    P.S. Here's the details on the software/hardware:
    MacBook Pro
    Mac OS X
    Version 10.7.5
    2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    iTunes 11.0.4 (4)
    iPhoto '11 9.4.3 (720.91)
    iMovie '11 9.0.9 (1795)
    Keynote '09 5.3 (1170)
    Pages '09 4.3 (1048)
    Numbers '09 2.3 (554)

    I have the same problem on a new MacBook Pro. I have not been able to access the iTunes library from iPhoto since I got this computer. I looked in the Preferences file and deleted the com.apple.iApps.plist but there was no com.apple.iApps.lockfile so I just deleted the iAPPs.plist and rebooted the computer.  Still no iTunes available in iPhoto.
    All my music is in iTunes and plays. After reading the above I brought up Pages and I was able to access music and insert a track into a document.
    Do you have any suggestions.

  • I can open some pages documents, but others I cannot.

    I can open some pages documents and others I cannot. This just started. I have a mac os x 10.9.4. It says I don't have any updates available.  I have no idea why this is happening. Please advise. Thanks!

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2.2 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 over 110 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:
    http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/viewforum.php?f=22&sid=3527487677f0c 6fa05b6297cd00f8eb9&mforum=iworktipsntrick
    You can add the icon of the missing Pages on your Dock or open Pages from the Apple menu > Recent Items list.
    Or you can archive Pages 5 so that it doesn't automatically open.
    If you are unhappy about this mess that Apple has created, review/rate Pages 5 in the App Store.

  • I just had my old operating system reinstalled, and i can't save pages documents, don't know how to install word

    i just had my old operating system reinstalled after a breakdown, and now i can't save pages documents. i don't know how to install word.

    What was your old system?
    What is your new System?
    What version of Pages?
    How did you install it?
    I don't know if you can see what's on my screen, but I definitely can't see what's on yours.
    To Install Word, buy it and follow the instructions.

  • HT1373 How can I find Pages documents I've created on my iPad on my Mac?

    How can I find Pages documents that I've created on my iPad on my Mac?  I have iCloud set up.  Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you have turned on iCloud on the iPad and on the Mac, you can see your documents created on the iPad if you are using Pages '09 and OS X Mountain Lion. Open Pages and the iCloud window will appear with the documents.
    If you don't have Mountain Lion and/or Pages '09, you can access to them on http://www.icloud.com, choosing iWork

  • Why can't i see documents using adobe reader even though I have the most updated version?

    Why can't I see documents using adobe reader even though I have the most updated version?

    Hi lawalton,
    Please tell me a bit more--what happens when you try to open your files in Reader? Are you getting an error message? Do they open, but don't display correctly?
    I look forward to hearing back from you so we can get this mystery sorted out.

  • I can't get pages documents to open on Microsoft word?

    I can't get pages documents to open on Microsoft word when I have drafted a pages doc on my mac and then send it to a PC to open and print through microsoft work - is there a way around this?

    You can't open it directly. You need to either export it from within Pages, or rename the saved file so its extension is zip, decompress it, and get what you can from the contents.

  • Can an unsaved pages document be retrieved after a screen freeze?

    Can an unsaved pages document be retrieved after a screen freeze?

    When your working on a  unsaved file, it's contents are in RAM or temporary memory, if the power goes off then the contents of this RAM is lost.
    When you save the file, it's written to pernament storage (hard drive) and can be retrieved, only losing the difference between the last saved state.
    Some programs have a temp save ability that will notify you that it has a file "recovered" and if you wish to resume using that copy. It saved the file for you to the hard drive without your permission or knowledge which can or cannot be a lifesaver.
    There are third party utilties that can invoke "Save" periodically on most all programs that don't have this recovery feature, if it's a new file, obviously a Save As will occur and you have to give it a name, but it's good for people who don't remember to save their files periodically.

  • Can't tie emailed Pages document to my default printer

    In our office we have several printers: HP LaserJet 1300, HP Color LaserJet 2605dn, HP LaserJet 4/4M PS, etc.
    On my MacBook Pro I have set HP LaserJet P2055dn as my default printer.
    My colleague from office sent me Pages document via email. On his MacBook Pro default printer is HP Color LaserJet 2605dn, and I also have this printer set up as a network printer, while my default printer at home is HP LaserJet P2055dn.
    Every time I have to print his Pages '09 document, the default printer is HP Color LaserJet 2605dn. Even if I specify my own printer in Page Setup dialogue window, save it as the default printer — after closing this document and reopening it the same old HP Color LaserJet 2605dn is back as the default printer for this document again. Every time I want to print this document I have to change printer back to my HP LaserJet P2055dn.
    Two questions:
    1) Why can't Pages use my default printer as the default printer?
    2) Why Pages doesn't save default printer for this document which I specify in Page Setup dialogue?

    As fruhulda said, this problem has been discussed at great length, but no solution seems to have been found. I have a Canon and an Epson, but am not currently using the Canon, yet every document I first printed with the Canon still shows it as the selected printer. I have to change to the Epson each time I print one of those documents. I finally decided it was unproductive to get frustrated all the time and to take a positive attitude about it: it teaches me look and think about what I’m doing rather than blindly clicking buttons. It didn’t fix the problem, but it brought a bit of serenity into my life. Philosophy vs technology.

  • Why is a 4MB Pages document converting into a 20.7MB epub file?  How can I reduce the size?

    I'm using Pages 4.3 to create epub files.  It converted a 112-page, 4 MB Pages document to a 20.7 MB epub file.  Yet when I converted the Pages document to a mobi file (for Amazon ebooks), it's only 3.6 MB.  Obviously I can't use a 20.7 MB file.  Why is it doing this and what can I do about it?
    Thanks for any information.

    Video files.
    Please take note that FLV is not much better than regular
    video. In fact it's
    larger and lousier quality. So you could import MOV to flash
    and keep it as SWF.
    This would keep the file smaller a bit. Than you can always
    load these files
    in run time, swf and flv. Making main movie small and just
    stream the content when
    needed.
