Why can't I open a lot of documents since yosemite. They are in grey

Since I installed the last version of OS X on my Ipad, I could not open a lot of documents on my Mac. I thought this problem would be solved when I would install Yosemite on my mac but this is not the case.
Why are so many documents in grey and why can't I open these documents on my mac with yosemite ?

Tell your friend to go to bit.ly to create a 'short URL' for that address.
They can send you that & you shouldn't have to worry about the SMS or any other messaging size limitations.
NOTE: there are many other URL shortener services…

  • I have iWork's 9 that inludes pages 4.3.  I created a document that I saved.  When I tried to open the document today, I was advised I needed a newer version of pages to open the document.  Why can't I open an existing pages document?

    I have iWorks 9 that includes Pages 4.3.  I created a document and saved it as a "pages" file.  When I tried to open the document the next day, a dialogue box told me I needed a newer version to open the file.  The information provided stated the new app would cost $19.99 and the customer ratings are quite low.  Why can't I open a previously created document in iWorks, regardless of the version.  This is the first time Apple has demanded that I pay for a new version to open existing documents.

    I am with Peter on this issue. Additionally, if you installed the latest IOS Pages (v2.01) on an iPhone or iPad and opened a .pages file on iCloud that was created by Pages ’09 v4.n, or IOS Pages v1.7.n — that document is now in the new .pages file format and only Pages v5 on OS X can open it.

  • Why can't I open some of my documents on Pages even though I created them all on the same IPad with the same Pages ap?

    Why can't I open some of my documents on Pages even though I created them all on the same IPad with the same Pages ap?

    I think I know the problem because I've had it myself. I didn't upgrade iWorks on my iPad, but after Apple made changes to iCloud (concurrent with Mavericks) any docs passing through it were modified and made unreadable. Even though, as you say, they were created on my iPad using the previous version of iOS Pages, which I didn't upgrade.
    iCloud is the culprit, if your iPad settings had iCloud>Documents & Data enabled, the docs were modified and disabled in the cloud.
    I made a further mistake. After I saw this happening, I didn't think to turn off auto updates, and Apple pushed the new version of iOS Pages onto my iPad. The result was that ALL my docs disappeared from the iPad, and from iCloud.com also. I have not been able to recover them.
    I've been talking to the Pages engineering team about it. If they come up with an answer, I'll post it here. Meanwhile, get those older files backed up somewhere safe if you can.

  • Why can't I delete mp3 files from my Trash?  They are not locked.

    Why can't I delete mp3 files from my Trash? They are not locked.  I compressed them into a zip file and then couldn't delete that file either.  I've restored them and tried deleting again but no luck.  Can anybody please help?  iOS 10.8.5

    You can't empty the Trash or move a file to the Trash
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on solving Trash issues. You can also try using Trash It! 5.1 to fix the problem. Or you can try this:
    Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder and paste the following at the prompt:
         sudo rm -Rf ~/.Trash/*
    Press RETURN. Enter your admin password when prompted. It will not echo to the screen. Press RETURN again.

  • Why can't I no longer watch movies from iTunes while they are downloading?

    Why can't I no longer watch movies from iTunes while they are downloading?

    Videos and movies purchased from the iTunes Store are by demand of the content owners copy protected and cannot be edited, regardless of what the software is you attempt to use. There is nothing anyone here can do to help you with that. If you need to be able to edit videos, you'll need to purchase and import the DVD - such importing is despite the content owners' efforts still legal for class use (as with any copyright issue, confirm fair use issues with your district's legal office) though we can't discuss methods here - which you'll then be able to edit.

    Mylenium is correct you will want to look at utilizing a program which lets you open Microsoft Office spreadsheets.  This is not something that Adobe currently offers.

  • Why can't I open all my Pages documents in Mavericks?

    Ever since upgrading to Mavericks my Pages upgrades will not allow me to open my documents!! Is there a better way around this than using my old version of Pages? this is very very inconvenient and not the way I'm used to working on my iMac.

    It sounds like you have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09 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 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them.
    Pages 5 can not open Pages '08 files at all. You will need to Export the Pages '08 files to Word .doc/x or use Pages '09 to open the Pages '08 files and resave them.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 older Pages files can not be opened in previous Pages.
    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.
    Note: Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

  • Why can't I open InDesign Docs in Bridge since Installing Snow Leopard?

    I have CS3 Indesign. I have recently installed Snow Leopard. Since doing that I am unable to open Indesign files within Bridge. I get a very strange message that says 'missing required parameter 'from' for event open. What does that mean and can I fix it. If I drag my document to my desktop, most of the time it opens but sometimes it does not. I have to go up to the file menu and open from there. Is it a Bridge problem or is it an InDesign problem. Very annoying! Does anyone know if there is a fix for this?
    Also since installing Snow Leopard, I am unable to open multiple files in Photoshop. Once again I am doing this from Bridge.
    Any information would be most appreciated.

  • Why can't I open my other gmail accounts since getting a message from Webmaker?

    Webmaker seems to have taken over my gmail account. a new update keeps popping up, even after I have opened it. And Webmaker sent me over 35 empty messages in a row, right after I signed up to learn about it. Now I can't access my 2 other gmail accounts, one of which is used for business, and the other for financial communications. I am outraged and really concerned. Can you fix this fast?

  • Why can i not open my documents?

    why can't I open any of my documents?

    You will have to check to see if opening and saving in a .doc or .docx format is permitted in AppleWorks.  Since AppleWorks is legacy software it probably is not supported.

  • Why can't I open a FCE project file that I have saved? (It now says ZERO kb

    Hello...
    I have just started working on a project in Final Cut Express - I render, save, and close out of FCE - but, when I go back to FCE, the project I was working on does not open.
    Why can't I open a project file that I have saved?
    Here was my process in a nutshell:
    ~ When I opened FCE, I went the System Preferences and set the Scratch Disks to a folder on my external hard drive.
    ~Then, I went to File - New Project - worked on the project for a while (including creating bins, importing images and video, and creating a sequence.
    ~I saved the project file to the same folder that I set my Scratch Disks to.
    as often throughout this process.)
    ~When I was done, I saved again andd closed FCE.
    ~Then, soon after, I opened FCE again and my project did not open automatically.
    ~So, I clicked File - Open Recent - browsed to and chose the project file name and FCE gave me a "Unable to open file" message.
    ~When I check to see if the project file actually saved to my external hard drive, the name appears, but it says the file size is ZERO kb.
    I have done this twice with the same unfortunate result. What am I doing wrong? I have worked on FCE on this same computer before, setting the Scratch Disks the same way, and I did not have this problem.
    Please help. Thank you so much for your feedback.
    ...Rae

    Are you sure you are trying to open the project file you actually saved ?
    Try using Spotlight to search for your project file name. I might be wrong, but I guess you try to open an empty copy while your real project file (what you saved) is somewhere else in either your startup disk (Documents folder ?) or the external drive. If so do not use Open Recent in FCE but simply double click the "real" project file.

  • Why can't TextEdit open more than 5 links at a time in Yosemite?

    Why can't TextEdit open more than 5 links at a time in Yosemite? In the previous OS, I could highlight many links at a time, right click and then select "Open URL" to open the links in Safari. Now, if I select more than five links at a time (and sometimes with five links) it will only open the first five and TextEdit pops up with the alert, "The 'Open URL' service could not be used."
    I'm running 10.10.1 on a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2009), 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, 500 GB HD.
    TextEdit is Version 1.10 (319).

    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • What is a .pkf and why can't I open it?

    Newb here,
    I am working in Audition for the first time (by employer's request).  I was given session files as .pkf files from work but have no idea how to open them at home.
    I have searched through all of the previous forum entries, help folders and google to no avail.  I have a deadline to meet and am getting nowhere closer.
    So in summary,
    What exactly does a .pkf file hold?  Session info? Audio?
    Why can't I open it in Audition if it was created by it?  How do I open it?
    Any info would be very helpful! Thanks for taking the time to read my request!
    (also, let me know if this is the wrong place for this)

    THANK YOU!!!
    You have provided me information that I couldn't find after countless hours of searching everywhere imaginable! 
    I'll go contact my employer right now.  I have all the audio files but no session files (sesx) that would contain all the range markers I need.
    Thanks again!
