Q: Pages doesn't let me share documents through email anymore

It seems that after I upgraded my MacBook to the OS X El Captain I can no longer share a Pages (or Numbers) document through an email address anymore.  I have always been able to hit the 'Share' icon, select the file format and then fill in the email address in the Mail window and hit send.  The only options available are 'Notes' and 'Messages'.  And I do not want to share with iCloud as sometimes I send documents to people who don't use it or have it.

 

Anyone else having this problem??

MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2012), OS X Yosemite (10.10), Also iOS8.1 on iPad

    I did not perform this latest suggestion of starting a Safe Boot.  Had a busy week.  What I did do on the 20th was run that Apple command again (/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/Launch Services.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -seed -domain local -domain system -domain user) just to use the 'Mail' option for a couple of emails I was working on.  The next day I started up my Mac again and the options to either 'Mail' or 'Air Drop' were still available and I didn't have to do anything.  So it mysteriously fixed itself. Hmmmmm.  I'm thrilled but yet intrigued as to how it got fixed.

    Glad it finally worked. Can't say why it took this long to sort itself out. Usually, running the lsregister command once is sufficient.
