You wait for the Mac App Store update of Pages to finish, quit the Mac App Store application, and then launch Pages v12.1 as you would normally.

Pages app won’t work I’ve done the 17.2 and 17.2.1 updates just this morning. But before those updates, and after them, I cannot get Pages app to work on either my iPad or iPhone. This came on very suddenly. There are important things I have in Pages, and I need to get it back ASAP
