Writing tools are missing/now available on Mac with 15.5

Today I was trying to use writing tools to proofread something I had written in notes, and it said writing tools are not available. Once support is downloaded. Mac will be able to use writing tools. Everything has been downloaded. I've rebooted. I've turned Apple Intelligence on and off. I even tried switching languages. Nothing is working. Works fine on the iPhone, but not on the Mac.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 15.5

Apple Intelligence Features Do Not Seem to Be Available in Pages For iOS/iPad OS I have an iPhone 15 Pro and two iPads, both of which are fully compatible with Apple Intelligence. After updating to iOS/iPad OS 18.1 I enabled Apple Inteligence, and I really like it. The new writing tools, such as proofread and rewrite, work great in Notes, Mail, even Messages. But I do not see them anywhere in Pages. This is my primary word processing app. Have not tried Pages for Mac, but on iPad and iPhone they definitely do not seem to be available. Is anyone else able to find/use these writing tools in Pages on iPad or iPhone? Or, do we think Pages needs an update in order to support them?

Writing Tools feature not appearing on my MacBook Pro after macOS 15.1 update I have a MacBook Pro 2020 with M1 chip and just upgraded to Sequoia 15.1. I have played around on Safari a bit and the new features are there. Now I am trying to use Writing Tools, but it is not found anywhere. Specifically in notes, there is no icon and if I select text and right click, it does not appear there either. Any ideas? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Writing Tools Unavailable on macOS Sequoia 15.5 (MacBook Pro M2 Max) Hi everyone, I recently updated my MacBook Pro (16-inch, M2 Max) to macOS Sequoia 15.5, and since then, the Apple Writing Tools feature has stopped working. Whenever I try to use it, I get the following error message: "Writing Tools Unavailable – Certain capabilities are unavailable at this time. Try again later." I rely on this feature daily for my writing and productivity, and it's very frustrating that it’s suddenly not working. I’ve tried restarting my Mac and checking for additional updates, but nothing has helped so far. Is anyone else facing the same issue after updating to macOS 15.5? Any workaround or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
