As I understand it, the .docx file extension cannot be opened in Pages. .Docx is the default extension for office 2010. So, in order to open a document prepared in office 2010, when saving, you have to save in a format other than the .docx format. I use the older .doc format which is supposed to work fine in Pages.

Hi David and Anne,

thanks for your individual responses to my issue it's most appreciated.

Said documents were created on a Pc Pages comes up with the following error when ever I tried to open the file:

" Pages can not open the document import error the file extension is incorrect".

The strange thing is this is happing to only one document all other types of files created using Microsoft word 2010 work find with Pages.

Very baffling indeed.

Was a bit disappointed that Apple couldn't help as it's clearly a software issue.

oh well.

Anymore suggestions/troubleshooting tips?

Kind regards,

MR.

Have you tried opening them with Text Edit.
If they will not open with Text Edit there may be a problem with the files.

Hi all,

I recently purchased Pages for the Mac.

My question is while am I not able to open word97/2004 documents?

I have contacted both the Pages team and AppleCare about this issue they
have been unhelpful.

Thanks for any answers regarding this.
