Pages crashing under 15.1.1

Since updating my Mac Mini M1 2020 to 15.1.1 last night, every time I attempt to launch Pages, I get a crash with problem detail window and offer to reopen (which just results in the same crash again). Pages version 14.2, everything should be up to date. Everything else working normally, including Apple's other productivity apps (and everything else).

Posting these crash dumps here is pointless as you have already told us that you are on 15.1.1 with Pages v14.2 and there is nothing causal in the crash dump. I have macOS Sequoia v15.1.1 (released) installed and it is 24B2091. Yours is older and that may be a defining issue with Pages behavior. Check System Settings > General > Software Update to see if there is a newer version of 15.1.1 waiting there?


Besides the Sequoia update to 15.1.1, what third-party applications or fonts did you install/remove prior to these crashes?


If you are running any anti-virus software or any so-called Mac cleaning applications, follow the vendor's complete removal instructions. Then do the following:

  1. Press and hold the shift key while launching Pages. Then attempt to open the same document when the preceding crash occurred. Did it Crash again?
  2. Reboot your Mac into Safe Boot mode.
    1. Repeat the preceding item 1. Did Pages crash again?
    2. Reboot normally.
  3. Repeat item 1 above again. Did it Crash?
