Have iWorks ‘09 pages running on Mojave. If I upgrade to Ventura will there be a way to get a newer version of pages? The one in the App Store is too new (requires iOS 14+). (Sorry photo flipped upside down when I uploaded it)
I don't know beforehand, and will not speculate if you can get a version of Pages 13.2 - 14.1 after you upgrade to Ventura 13.7 — based on having Pages '09 installed on Mojave. Almost exclusively, my experience in the Pages community has been helping those who installed Pages v5 (Oct 2013) or later obtain the last compatible version for their later version of macOS when it was not directly available from the Mac App Store.
Pages '09 as a 32-bit application is inoperable after Mojave. Later versions of Pages are entirely different applications, both in functionality, and user experience because they were not based on the Pages '09 code. Their documents are not backward compatible with Pages '09. Some features may have been used in Pages '09 that the current Pages versions will not be able to convert, and this may prevent forward compatibility in rare cases.
If you upgrade to Ventura 13.7, you may or may not find yourself without a means to get the last compatible version of Pages for Ventura. Make backup copies of your existing Pages '09 documents. You may have to use the iCloud version of Pages on the copies to convert them to the current Pages document format. Let me know if you plan to upgrade to Ventura anyway, as there is a simple test in the Mac App Store to determine if you can get a last compatible version of Pages for Ventura.
Seems like I’ll be stuck without any Pages if I go to Ventura. Which is kinda crazy. Where could I get the last compatible version of pages for Ventura (if App Store is no longer offering :/)?
What is the “simple test”? Can I do this test before switching to Ventura? Thx for your feedback.
Generally, as a rule, if you have not personally installed Pages v5 or later from the Mac App Store since Oct 2013, then it would not appear in the purchased panel of the Mojave or Ventura Mac App Store and there are no other means to get a last compatible version of Pages for Ventura.
You might operate on the premise that you would not be able to obtain a last compatible version of Pages for Ventura because you have not met the criterion of the first paragraph. Consider that your simple test.
Yes you can because it has more fonts in the update
I have pages on my iPad
Pages on the iPad is not Pages on the Mac, nor do they use the same App Store.
If I update can I get a newer version of pages?
