Why can't I download an older version of Pages from the App Store?

Is there any way to download an older version of Pages? Specifically, version 4.2?
Upgrading my OS from 10.6.8 is not an option, and I live overseas in a place where I'm completely unable to recieve disks for older iWorks through the mail. This is frustrating... the App should either be compatible or alternatively should keep older versions available, if not on the app store then on the website somewhere. I'm willing to pay Apple for an older version, but have yet to figure out how that's even an option.
Would love to know if there's a way to get Pages 4.2 that I've missed. Thanks

Google "Apple iWork '09 Installer".
Apple seems to have pulled the plug on the manual updaters so you may have to Google those as well.

  • Why won't iPhoto download after i have bought it from the app store and installed mavericks

    why won't iPhoto download after i have bought it from the app store and installed mavericks?

    Sorry no mind readers here so you have to tell us details, context and any error messages - just stating an abstract problem that could have thousands of causes is not enough
    What version of iPhoto? Of the OS? what has changed since it worked? How are you trying to open it (clicking on the icon in the Dock, double clicking on the application in the applications folder, ???)?
    Anything else you can tell a total stranger who can not see you or your computer to let them assist you?

  • How do I reinstall an older version of Aperture from the App Store?

    Hello,
    I have an older Macbook - 13 inch early 2008. It is still running fine on 10.7.5 Lion, but can't update to a later version of OS X, as it is not compatible. I have Aperture 3.4.5, which I purchased from the App Store.
    Following a hard disk problem, I've reinstalled the laptop, used software update to get all the latest patches, and have recovered my files and applications from my Time Machine Backup. Unfortunately, Aperture is no longer able to open files from my Sony Nex camera ("Unsupported Image Format" message") even though it worked before I rebuilt my Mac, and is listed as supported under Aperture 3.4.5. I've done all of the "Repair permissions", "repair database" and "Rebuild Database" things, but it hasn't helped.
    I've tried to fix this by removing Aperture (in case my Time Machine backup version is in some way corrupted) and reinstalled from the App Store, but the App Store won't let me have Aperture anymore, even though I've paid for it, because my system is no longer compatible with the current version, 3.5. I can't see a way of downloading a full copy of the older version compatible with my system. I can see updates for Aperture listed at http://support.apple.com/downloads/#aperture, including Aperture 3.4.5, but these require a copy of Aperture 3.0 or later already installed to update, and even if I run the 3.4.5 update, it tells me it won't work because my copy of Aperture is from the App store.
    Can anyone help me find a way of navigating the App Store or Apple web site to get the copy of Aperture 3.4.5 I have licensed from Apple?
    Many thanks.

    @léonie
    Thanks for your help with this. I've downloaded the latest RAW support updates supported on my machine - V4.09 that seems to contain all of the RAW formats for previous updated including V4.06, which includes the NEX 3N, my camera. After a short while (there seemed to be some sort of background processing ging on in Aperture) it started to allow my NEX 3N photos to be viewed. Some of the thumbnails were corrupted, but if I made a slight edit in each of these files, the thumbnails updated and all was well.
    Prior to this, I raised a call with Apple, because the inability to reinstall software from the App Store that I've purchased from in App Store to a machine that supports OSX 10.7.5 and no later strikes me as a problem. I need to know that if my Time Machine backup fails and I need to reinstall, I've got somewhere I can go.
    The support people at Apple were very helpful, and it feels like they recognise this as a problem, and are working to resolve it behind the scenes. The App Store will not allow me to download the last version that works on my machine at the moment, but it sounds like Apple is thinking about how to do this. In the meantime, they are shipping me a copy of Aperture 3.0 on CD, and sending me a registration code. This will solve my immediate problem.
    This does make me wary about using the App Store for purchases in the future. I don't upgrade my hardware that frequently - I have no real need to as it just keeps working - and so not having physical copies of installation media for when the applications stop supporting my OS is a worry. On the face of it, maintaining prior versions of the software for older machines to download from the App Store seems like a reasonable solution, but they are not there yet, and there is no real commitment for them to do this. Anyone who doesn't back up their Apps in Time Machine (probably the majority of users) could loose them altogether when Apple moves on, and cuts app support for older OS versions.
    Thanks to @léonie and @Frank Cagianno for your help.

  • Why can't I download an older version of JDeveloper from OTN?

    I need to download an older version of JDeveloper (10.1.2.3) from OTN to be able to create and deploy web services against Oracle Application Server of the same version. I get to the licence page here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/testcontent/jdevlic-086341.html
    but after clicking in the Yes field and pressing I Accept, I get the following page:
    Sorry!
    In order to download products from Oracle Technology Network, you must agree to the OTN license terms.
         and agree to the OTN license terms.
         Click here to return to the homepage.
    Please note: You may have received this error if you are using a browser other than Internet Explorer, Mozilla, or Netscape. We apologize for any inconvenience.
    I've tried this in various browsers, including IE 7, but can't get through the licence screen. This is very frustrating!
    Anyone any idea why this is happening, how to get around it or how to get directly to the download page without being messed about?
    I wonder if this is anything to do with the OTN upgrade that appears to be ongoing and causing me other issues, such as broken links etc.
    Thanks.

  • Can I re install logic after I purchased it  from the app store?

    can I re install logic after I purchased it from the app store? They say you can, but it won't allow me. Finally got logic pro 9 loaded. I recorded a test session,saved it,closed logic and when I went to re open logic the next day. My Logic icon was different ( it was the application icon not the silver record icon ) and I am unable to open my session or go to the app store to re install it. I can't find logic pro anywhere in my folders other than the application icon and that won't open.

    anybody answer me fast

  • Can I install Lion as a complete re-build from the App Store

    Hi,
    I have Snow and want to update to Lion.  When I do this I want to start again from scratch and do not want to carry over my acocunts and setting (my machine needs a good clean out). 
    If I upgrade from the App Store will I be given the option to do this? 
    If not I guess I have to go the route of creating a Lion Boot Disc as suggested here?
    http://www.macrumors.com/2011/07/18/make-an-os-x-lion-boot-disc/
    Thanks in advance for the support

    Once you have installed Lion, you can boot from the recovery partion, erase the boot partition, and reinstall -- but that means downloading it again. Creating a bootable installation disc or USB key will save time and bandwidth.

  • I have 1 iMac, two users (myself and my wife), 2 different Apple ID's, and I want to buy Pages from the App Store so we both can use. Is this possible without having to buy it twice?

    I am wanting to purchase the Pages app from the App Store. I do not want to purchase it 2 times, once for me, and again for my wife. We both share the same iMac, and we both use seperate Apple ID's. Is there a way to purchase it under my user, and have it download to her user as well? I have searched all over the forums for a cut and dry answer to this, to no avail. Any help in the matter would be appreciated, as I am a newbie on the Mac.

    No. You need to buy it for your Apple ID and for the other. You will have problems with updates

  • How can i upgrade to OSX Mountain Lion other than from the app store?

    I am trying to upgrade to OSX Mountain Lion from OSX Lion but i get this message:
    "We could not complete your purchase. The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed."
    Further I am able to download other programs from the app store (like growl) but it does not work for Mountail Lion ????
    I looked through the forum and one post said that i have to use lion recovery to reinstall osX lion but then it defetes the objective of upgrading.
    Please help me
    Cheers

    If your system's not compatible with 10.8 and has at least a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU, phone the online Apple Store and order a download code for 10.7.

  • Why can't I download, edit and tag a photo from the photo stream?, Why can't I download, edit and tag a photo from the photo stream?

    I took a few pictures with my iPhone and then imported them to iPhoto. For a reason I don't understand, a few of the pictures from the camera roll didn't get imported and I thought I lost them. But, there they were in the Photo Stream. But I barely understood how to get the pictures from the steam into my library. Plus, when I copied them to the correct album, iPhoto reported that I couldn't edit them since they were downloaded from the stream. Nor could I tag them.
    Nor could I share them on Facebook. Finally, I just pasted them into the Facebook album and tagged them there.
    This is a mite annoying. Is this how it's supposed to work? Is there no way to actually download and edit and tag a picture from the stream?

  • After downloading and installing YOSEMITE (10.10) from the App Store none of my Browsers are working properly: SAFARI, CHROME and FIREFOX. You have to FORCE QUIT.

    iMac 21.5 inch 2010 model year.  3.06 GHz,  8GB RAM running Latest YOSEMITE 10.10 dowloaded and installed from App Store about 24 hours ago (Mon-27thOct)
    I have ADMINISTRATOR rights but my son's account does not and he has worse problems after upgrading to YOSEMITE. FIREFOX Version is 23.0.1
    CHROME version is 38.0.2125.111
    Occasionally after dozens of attempts you may start loading a page but it is painfully slow. 

    If it is a problem with all of the browsers then it suggests that it is caused by an incompatible internet plugin (which is affecting all of them).
    I would try a safe boot (restart and hold down the shift key until you see the apple logo).  A safe boot does some diagnostic things and cleans some caches; it can take longer than a regular boot so be patient. If your browsers work better in a safe boot, that suggests that the problem is from some incompatible third party software (like an internet plugin) that you have installed. Then it becomes a trial and error process to find the culprit and uninstall it. A safe boot is a diagnostic maneuver; it usually won't fix things but it can help figure out where the problem is.
    Why don't you try the safe boot and then report back.
    I would not use chrome, BTW. Google has a talent for creating apps that don't play well with Macs.
    Also: have you used any "maintenance" or "cleaning" utilities like CleanMyMac or MacKeeper?
