iCloud problem

Sam1962 · Feb 15, 2012

Hi, I am trying to get to grips with iCloud and am encountering the following problem:

When I log into iCloud and select the iWork's icon, I am told to purchase pages even though I have bought it and have it installed on all my iOS devices (iPad, iPhone). I am running iOS 5 on both devices and have iCloud enabled for documents and data.

I have rebooted all devices and restated my mac as well. I am at a loss,,,

Help - anyone????

Thanks

I am not an expert in this, but my understanding is the iWork feature in iCloud is for transfer of documents between the IOS version of Pages and the OS X version. If you haven't purchased Pages or iWork for your Mac then the feature you are trying to use won't work.

Thanks for the quick response! I do have the latest version of Pages installed on my iMac as well! This is also running Lion!

I did a write up a few months ago of what I did to get document sync to work. I will try to find it and post the link here.

EDIT: This isn't the post I was looking for, but maybe it will help
