[QUOTE="MacNasty, post: 1642441, member: 242393"] I do my word processing on my Mac Pro with Pages. Never had a problem. I open a file the other day, went to save it and Pages froze. Couldn't save or close the file or close pages. At this point I tried force quit which also didn't work so I shut down my Mac and rebooted. Now when I try to open Pages a "Tables" box opens first (the one for columns and rows) and then Pages crashes and I get the "Pages has shut down unexpectedly" box. I am using Mountain Lion version 10.8.5 on a Mid-2012 Mac Pro 3.33 GHz 6 core Intel Xeon with 20 GB RAM. I have tried to use Time Machine to go back a few days to an earlier Pages with no success. Is there a preference file or startup file that is causing this "Tables" box to open? Something I can erase to get my Pages back? It's Pages 4.3 and I really didn't want to update when what I have worked well until now and there is no guarantee that an update to a new version won't behave the same until this problem is rectified.
