Will installing the iWork trial affect existing Keynote install?

I bought Keynote from the Mac App Store, but I would like to try Pages before buying. I have Office for Mac 2011 installed on my machine, but I have grown tired of Microsoft not supporting it as much as the Windows equivalent. Keynote seems to fairly compatible, so I want to see if Pages is the same way.
So my question is: Will installing the iWork trial from Apple's website (I really just want Pages) affect my existing Keynote installation that originated in the Mac App Store? I really don't want to lose the license.

TPCG,
You'll always be able to re-download your MacAppStore purchase if necessary, no matter what happens with the trial.
When the trial expires, you'll have to delete it and all the .plist files associated with it, or it will plague you. Yvan Koenig has written a script that makes it easy to clear the machine of the iWork trial, without affecting any documents you have written.
At that point, if you find that you don't have Keynote, don't worry, just go to the MAS and download again.

Did the iWork trial, bought numbers but can't export the work i did in the original version of works

i used the trial version of iworks & wrote ou a spreadshet in it. After the 30 days had elapsed, i bought the current version of numbers & have since tried to email / copy sections or the full spreadsheet that i originally produced & it is refusing to export the data & asking me to purchase iwork. i only wanted numbers in the 1st place, do i now have to purchase iwork (including numbers again) to get at my spreadsheet?
thank you

Hi pottsie,
No. You have to remove all traces of the iWork trial—the iWork folder and its contents, and several supporting files created by the iWork applications (but not the files created by you).
The easiest method of doing that is to download and run the AppleScript "uninstall iWork '09", availavle from Yvan Koenig's Box account. Click the link, then click For_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items> uninstall iWork '09.zip.
After the file is downloaded, locate it and double click the icon to unpack the zip file.
Open the folder that appears and double click the uninstall file inside. It will open in the Scipt Editor.
Click Run to run the script and delete the iWork trial and supporting files.
You will likely have to download and reinstall the Numbers '09 file from the Mac app store. As you have already purchased it, that download will be free.

Barry

Why can I not install the iWorks collection (numbers, pages, keynote etc) for FREE?

Even though my iPad was activated in Jan 2014 the iWorks / iLife app collection does not appear as free in my app store (after Sep 2013 those apps should be free for iOS7).
Note: due to some problems I had to re-install my iPad mini 2 more times. At the very first OS installation the above mentioned apps were still displayed as free and I also installed them. In my current OS installation (the 3rd) the apps show as NOT FREE.
any ideas?

Sorry also not.
I signed in to the App Store (and to itunes store just to make sure) with both my apple ids but i do not have the sub- section 'Hidden Purchases' within 'Itunes in the cloud' section. I guess I do not have hidden purchases then...
More interestingly: I checked the 'Top Charts' section in the AppStore and under category 'Top Free' all the iWork stuff (Numbers, Keynote, pages etc) shows up! But it has a price (e.g. numbers = 2000Yen) underneath... very strange.
Somewhat the app store knows that it should be free for me but the price is not displayed as 'Free'...
Help please.

Need a powershell script that will modify the path of an existing Outlook 2010 OST file

For new users we have a GPO in place that creates the OST file in the correct location. The GPO also works on existing users who create a new Outlook Profile.
The problem I am trying to solve is modifying an existing Outlook Profile and changing the location that the OST file is written to.
I have to put the users OST file on the network. Yes, I do know that this is not supported by Microsoft, but I have zero clients (WYSE units) on non-persistent VMware virtual machines. This means they cannot keep the OST file on the PC.
Our email provider requires us to run in Cached-Mode so OST files are here to stay.
Forcing 3000 users to create new Outlook profiles would not have a good outcome.
I also have to relocate their PST files onto the network, which is also not supported. I have been able to connect PST's with powershell, but disconnecting them has been challenging (can't make it work even once) so if I could get some help with that
too that would be excellent.
Thanks

Hi,
You may refer to the following article to create the registry keys and deploy it with logon script:

I've bought numbers & pages from the App Store but when I open either I'm being asked to use the iWork trial or buy it - Do I have to buy iWork too, and if so, why does the App Store leet you buy the apps separately if you need iWork in order to use them?

Any help would be appreciated!

Hi Jim,
Following Matt's instructions may be sufficient, but I'd recommend checking Yvan Koenig's post in this thread for a more thorough procedure.

Had to uninstall iWork trial since I bought the pages app and it wouldn't let me print or save. Now the app store says I have pages installed but I can't find it anywhere to open and use it. I'm not very computer savvy and am getting frustrated!

Ooops, guess I didn't need to post everything in the title - sorry! I bought the pages app - but couldn't save or print so with some online searching found that I had to uninstall the iWork trial which had expired. I did that - but now I can't figure out how to re-install the pages app!! The app store says it's installed, but I can't find it anywhere to open and use it. I'm not very computer savvy - and am a first time Mac user and am getting extremely frustrated! I e-mailed some help center and they can't seem to help me either. I would appreciate any help/advice that can fix my problem - thanks in advance!!

OK Apple has stuffed up the demo version upgrade process so the first thing you need to do is get rid of the demo.
That includes getting rid of the files in the system.
The instructions how to do that are here:
Note That where you see / that is the sequence of folders, each nested inside each other.
User/Library/Preferences the com.apple.iwork.Keynote.plist
Means the User (you, the little home icon, whatever you are called on your computer) then the Library folder inside that and then the Preferences folder inside that.
Lion initially hides the System folders from you so you have to go to the Finder > Menu > hold down the option key and click on GO > Library to see it.

Cannot install iWork trial

Please help. I cannot install the iWork trial. I deleted the Microsoft Office trial when I got my computer, but now I need to make a presentation for school. After reading that keynote can export in PPT format, I decided to install the trial. But it will not let me.
This is the message I get:

The iWork Tour is a Keynote file, so it won't play if the software is not installed (OmniOutliner may be OS X's "best guess" as to what to use, since the proper app isn't available). In other words, the fact that it doesn't run doesn't tell us very much.
The error message also isn't particularly enlightening, unfortunately, although you may be right that the disc is damaged in some way, or there is some other problem with your system. As a shot in the dark, you might try opening Disk Utility (in your Applications folder, in Utilities), and run Repair Permissions on your hard drive -- there's an outside chance this might fix things. You might also use the same app to run Verify Disc on the iWork disc, and see if it reports any problems, although this would only be diagnostic, as any problems detected couldn't be repaired (since the disc is not writable).
If you have a Mac dealer near you (or a friend with a newish Mac), your best bet might be to go to them and see if they would install a trial version of iWork for you (or if they have a trial disc you could borrow). There shouldn't be any legal issues with this, since all you are asking for is the same thing that came with your Mac originally. Unfortunately, I don't believe that you can download the trial version online -- only the paid version (through the Apple Store) appears to be available.

Will the update do iOS 7 have the iWork applications on the update for free?

I am wondering I'd the ios 7 update will have the iWork applications for free on it.

adpbasketball wrote:
Really what I want to know is if after I download ios 7 if I will be able to download all of the Iwork applications off of the app store for free?? The reason I ask this is because at the keynote presentation when apple announced that Iwork will become free when you update to ios 7. Am I understanding this right???
The fine print on the new iPhone Features pages spells it out pretty clearly - you need to activate a new device on or after 09/01/2013 to be eligible for the free apps.
4 iPhoto, iMovie, Keynote, Pages, and Numbers are free on the App Store for qualifying iOS 7 compatible devices activated after September 1, 2013. See www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/ for iOS 7 compatible devices. Downloading apps requires an Apple ID.

How can I distribute the free version of Numbers, Keynote, and Pages using Apple Configurator

I am trying to use Apple Configurator to mamnge a set of classroom iPads. I have figured out how to purchase apps via the VPP account and distribute them, but I can't figure out how to distribute the free versions of Pages, Numbers, and Keynote. When I try downloading these apps on the Mac running Configurator, they show up as a paid version. Currently, I have to disable the option in Configurator that removes non-mamanged apps and then install the apps manually on each iPad. Does anyone have a better option than this. My hope was to be able to completely manage the iPads by simply pugging them into the Mac.

The apps is not only for iPhone 5c and 5s. its for all apple products that are purchased with iOS 7. I don't believe if you already have the product then update it to iOS 7 that the apps will be free. I believe that you have to purchase the product on or after the 18th since iOS 7 will already be on the products.
Edit...All compatible iOS 7 products activated on or after September 1st, 2013 will recieve the iWork apps for free. So yes he/she will recieve the apps

Trouble converting iWorks trial to full version

Hi folks,
Background: I have a macbook pro, upon which I installed iWorks trial many months ago. I've only just gor around to attempting to click on the links provided to buy the full version. I suspect I'm running into difficulties because I've notice that support for the iWorks trial was withdrawn in April. I'm seemingly unable to upgrade to full version and am only seeing options to purchase Pages, Numbers etc., separately.
Question/concern: My question is whether or not I should uninstall the trial version (which I don't yet know how to do) and start over, than attempt to download these individual products, as I'm not sure whether this will interfere with what's already on my MacBook Pro. Any advice about this appreciated.
Cheers,
CB

Easiest way to uninstall iWork is to use Yvan's script
You cannot completely delete iWork by moving the iWork '09 folder to the Trash. Instead, use Yvan Koenig's script:
          •          Go to http://www.box.com/s/00qnssoyeq2xvc22ra4k
          •          Choose public_YK > for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items
          •          Click on uninstall iWork '09.zip, decompress it, open it in AppleScript Editor and click the Run button
Then you can buy and download the application from the Mac App Store, if you have MAcOs 10.6.6 or newer.

IWork Trial - Bought Disk but cant activate ?

Hi
I downloaded the iWork trial, loved it and bought the iWork Disk pack
The trial is up and it says enter serial or put in the install disk if you have bought it
I install my purchased product - no joy still get the trial expired and buy or enter serial number box
The box that i works comes in has a sticker on it with numbers and a barcode but nothing that represents the serial number my macs asking for whn i start numbers !
Please help !
Dave

It used to be that to update the trial to the licensed version with the box, you just inserted the DVD & ran the installer to convert the trial to licensed. This has changed with Snow Leopard. You now need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user..

I can't delete the Pages trial version.

Hello,
I have a problem.
A time ago I downloaded the iWork trial version pack (for 30 days free),
I decided to buy Pages quicker then in those 30 days. So now I have the real pages version and the trial version on my computer.
The problem is now, that it's not letting me to print/save anything because it's says I've still the trial version.. So i got two Pages right now. I can't get rid off the trial version one...
But i bought the "real" Pages in the App Store, so don't have any box with a license or stuff...
Can anyone please help me out?
Greetings,
Jeffrey

Just bought a used MacBook pro after my previous died. I want to migrate my applications, data, etc from a time machine backup of the old computer to the new. Will this affect, or overwrite the Apps., data, etc existing on the new machine?

No. Only those Apps that are not installed on the new will migrate over.
