Why will Use iCloud and Restore not stay on in Pages

I have two iPod Touch devices (actually three counting my wife's older model).  All of them are running the lastest non-jail-broken versions of iOS and sync with iCloud as well as can be expected (sometimes I get duplicate events in Calendar).  I recently bought Pages and installed it on both of my devices.  I could not get either of them to sync to iCloud.  When I go into Setup and select Use iCloud and Restore under Pages settings, it won't stay on.  Also, when I log into iCloud with my PC, it tells me that I need to purchase Pages BUT it will take a Word document upload... which then does not appear on either of the devices.  Documents created on either device do not appear on the other or in iCoud.  The original Getting Started document appears on both devices and iCloud.
I have read most of the comments on the web about this and some seem to point to a fix involving setting up the Touch as a new device.  That's a non-starter for me because the last time I did that, it wiped out all of my Contacts and Calendar entries.
Would appreciate some help

I only have one account.  All other iCloud apps/syncs etc. are working on all devices (three iPod Touch and two PC,s) while Pages does not work on any of 'em and "Use iCloud." and "Restore" settings in Setup>Pages will not stay On.  I select it from Off to On and immediately it returns to Off.  Since verything involving iCoud works, I would conclude that they are all using the same account

  • "Use iCloud" setting won't stay on for Pages

    I am experiencing the same problem on both my iPad 2 and iPhone 4s. I am attempting to utilize Pages with iCloud. iCloud is functioning fine; calendar events are syncing across all events, backups are being made, etc.
    However, I can turn "Use iCloud" on within Settings > Pages on BOTH devices. The option stays on, until I open Pages on that device. Then, it automatically reverts to off, whether I create or edit a document within Pages or not. I've tried every combination imaginable of killing both apps, enabling "Use iCloud," restarting device before launching Pages, etc. But the problem persists on both devices. Needless to say, nothing is syncing. I have "Documents & Data" on within iCloud settings.
    Has anyone else seen this issue, or can anyone shed some light on it?
    Thanks for reading.

    Solution found. I apologize for creating this trhead. Didn't see this solution until "More like this" displayed while re-reading my question.
    Solution:"Use iCloud" Pages/Numbers option won't stay turned on

  • Why will my iPad and iPhone not synch to my iTunes?

    I have reset all my devices, re-formatted my computer and everything.  It times out, gives me messages saying it cannot synch, or locks up my computer but never synchs. Can anyone help me? 

    Under iTunes, in the 'info' tab have you enabled them to sync with outlook? you have to choose that and turn it on. It's not on by default.

    You can access iCloud.com on a computer to turn it off.

  • One of my calendars in the list has vanished. It is not simply unchecked, but gone. It was all my own personal appointments, the calendars for other family are all still there. How do I restore that one calendar. I use iCloud and calendars is on.

    One of my calendars (one of several) has vanished. It is not simply unchecked, but is totally gone. I have a MacBook Pro, iPad mini, iPhone 5c - this calendar is gone from all devices. I do have and use iCloud and calendars is turned on. I have turned off calendars and back on as well as turned off iCloud and then the device itself. Nothing has worked and this has all my own personal appointments on it. Any ideas of how to restore this one calendar and make it available in my list of the other calendars again?

    There are a few applications out now that may be able to help you out. 1Password and LastPass are both password vault or lockers. They allow you to save passwords for applications and websites. That way you have a single password you use to keep the vault/locker secure and then all of your other passwords are stored for you so you don't have to write them down or try to remember them all.

  • HT4914 When I'm using iCloud,and I'm NOT in wifi will I need to pay a service provider for data useage?

    When I'm using iCloud,and I'm NOT in wifi will I need to pay a service provider for data useage?

    It's your choice. If you know that you will be away from wifi then you could download the music that you want to listen to so that it is available on your phone. If you do subscribe to Match and want to be able to access it via your carrier's network then you will also need to be an area where you get reception from your carrier.
    There are also some wifi-enabled external drives that allow you to stream content to a device e.g. Seagate GoFlex Satellite

  • Why will my icloud calendar not sync between my iphone and calendar on Outlook PC?

    Why will my icloud calendar not sync between my iphone and calendar on Outlook PC?

    I think I may be having the same issue In a round about kind of way.  Just got an iPhone4S ... everything worked great until today when I started tinkering with the settings in my new phone and noticed my cloud was getting full and I had two iPhone back ups on there at 4GB a piece.  So.... I deleted the old back up of the iPhone4 and after that is when I started noticing issues.  The cloud on my phone can no longer authenticate itself , unable to tell me when the last back up was, and will not perform a back up at all. Furthermore I am unable to download apps or updates on my iphone4S, they all sit in "waiting" status....
    I also must say that I purchased an iPad 2 and still have my original ipad in the house and active.  Both back ups are in the cloud and both devices work fine independently and can download apps and back up fine as well. I'm pretty sure this may be the culprit concerning this issue and I too have no idea how to fix it. Please Help!!!

  • Why can't I migrate from an iPhone 3GS to a 4GS using iCloud Backup/Restore?? (Says incompatible.)

    Why can't I -simply- migrate from an iPhone 3GS to a 4GS using iCloud Backup/Restore??
    (The 4GS says it's incompatible with 3GS iCloud Backups and so it cannot restore them.)
    I've had to use a computer with iTunes, but surely iCloud can be used fior this?

    You need to update your 4 to newer software to restore from icloud back up, until then you will get incompatible message. So steps are - set up your iphone 4 as new. Update. Erase. Restore from cloud backup. If you update does not take long you should be all set within an hour.

  • How do I use icloud to restore my documents that were in Pages? Pages got stuck in "waiting" to update and when nothing else worked I deleted it and reloaded Pages. I don't want to restore everything just my Pages documents.

    How do I use icloud to restore my documents that were in Pages? Pages got stuck in "waiting" to update and when nothing else worked I deleted it and reloaded Pages. Everything I can find is about wiping everything out and restoring everything. I don't want to restore everything just my Pages documents (and numbers and keynote that also locked up during updating).

    What I meant is turn off Documents and Data in iCloud in OS X. Keep it on on your iOS devices. iCloud will sync documents between the iOS devices and make them available on the iCloud web site, but it won't mess up iWorks' open and save dialog boxes. It also won't assume that you want all your documents in iCloud, which I think is undesirable anyway.
    Keep iOS and OS X separate, and use the web site to move files between the two as necessary.
    iOS iWork is different from OS X iWork. There are fewer fonts on an iOS device. iOS iWork programs have slightly different feature sets than OS X iWork programs, and the file formats are different. iCloud automatically converts the file format when necessary, but if you make a habit of saving things directly to iCloud, you are limited to the lowest common denominator between the two versions of iWorks. So why would anyone want iWork on the Mac to open and save documents on iCloud by default?
    If you want to store files in the cloud and sync them on your Macs, SugarSync is a much better solution. It lets you choose your sync folders, it doesn't make you reorganize your files, it lets you sync all file types, it doesn't convert files to a different format and back, and it stores everything in the cloud, too. Just the simle act of saving a file backs it up and syncs it. I wouldn't live without it. iCloud is best with iTunes purchases and synchronizing Mac settings and iOS files; I woudln't live without it. The two make an unbeatable combination.

  • I don't use sync and am not signed in? Why are my bookmarks syncing?

    My office computer has one set of bookmarks I use at work. My home PC has another, different set of bookmarks that I use at home. I don't use sync and am not signed into sync on either PC. Why are my bookmarks syncing between the two PCs? For instance, I noticed several bookmarks near the top of my bookmark menu above a separator line that I do not use at work. I deleted them. I get home and find those same bookmarks gone from my home PC. I don't want to sync anything between the two computers, why is this happening?

    Perhaps an add-on is syncing these for you.

  • How can I get my data from a old iPad to a new iPad using iCloud and not iTunes

    How can I get my data from a old iPad to a new iPad using iCloud and not iTunes

    Restore from the iCloud backup - assuming that you were backing up to iCloud in the first place. If you weren't using iCloud for backup - then you are out of luck.
    If you were backing up to iCloud - you have to erase all contents on the iPad in Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings - before you can restore from the iCloud backup.

  • HT4436 For the past two weeks, every time I start up my computer I'm asked for an iCloud login. I've never used iCloud and I'm not likely to. How do I get this login to stop automatically showing up?

    For the past two weeks, every time I start up my computer I'm asked for an iCloud login. I've never used iCloud and I'm not likely to. How do I get this login to stop automatically showing up? I'm using an iMac G5 with OS 10.9.4.

    One more quick thing first. Hold the SHIFT key this time as you startup and see if that gets you any further (this is called 'Safe Mode' by the way). I'm not too confident that this will work in your case but it's worth a try. If it boots up, go into Disk Utility and repair permissions.
    If it doesn't, you're going to have to do an Archive & Install which will install a fresh copy of the OS over the top BUT keep all your users, files and apps in place.
