[QUOTE="ShipSinker, post: 1745197, member: 388065"] Hello Everyone who responded to my original message which was very much appreciated. I did download Apache Open Office to have a look at it but have decided and indeed acted upon a suggestion from the Apple Support Forum which I have copied & pasted here. I put it here in case anyone might want to use the advise. I have done the first part, Pages now works fine for me and I am a happy person. I have yet to decide on the second ('09 DVD) part as I wouldn't want all the extra disruption while trying to download Sierra! Thank You all again, my Best Regards, Jim "from the original iWork '08 DVD, and then follow up with these iWork '08 updaters to get you to the last '08 versions: Pages '08 v3.0.3 - Numbers '08 v1.0.3 - Keynote '08 v4.0.4 You can still get the iWork '09 DVD from Amazon and Ebay resellers. Once these DVD applications are installed, they too will be dependent on their application libraries installed in System locations. There is a single, downloadable updater for these iWork '09 applications that is required for compatibility with OS X El Capitan. The Apple iWork 9.3 updater will bring these iWork '09 applications to their latest 12/2012 released versions. Nothing in the Mac App Store will get you updates to iWork '08, or iWork '09 applications on El Capitan. The most current versions in the App Store of Pages, Numbers, and Keynote require macOS Sierra as a prerequisite for installation." [/QUOTE]
