Pages is the only word processor I know of that refuses to open documents that it created just a couple years prior (version 5 would refuse to open documents created by version 3, for example).
If Pages works for you, great: but save a copy in a different format if you want to be able to edit it in a couple years.
- ethanpil 7y agoThis is exactly the mentality this entire thread is about! Here we see it clearly demonstrated in another product. Apple says "update, upgrade or you are dead to me." I have been stuck multiple times with users upgrading Pages two versions later on a desktop and then unable to read on their laptop or vice versa. Inexcusable!
- ericd 7y agoYeah, I was dumbfounded when I ran into this problem. I would be ashamed if I was on that team. At least include a converter.
