Keynote & Pages don't open files after update Hi there, I recently updated to MacOS Big Sur and the newest iWork, but now both have troubles opening new files. E.g., when trying to open a keynote file, created on Tuesday with just the previous version of Keynote, I get only the message of "downloading" that doesn't seem to go anywhere, regardless of the time I wait. Also, when adding pictures to a new Keynote presentation (yes, I can open a new one), the whole Keynote freezes and crashes. Is this a known problem and how could I fix it? Thanks, Anja

Powerpoint docs won't save I'm getting an error message saying I cannot save my file because it's "loaded by another user at the moment" - I haven't shared the file or opened it on another device, so what's going on? I'm using Big Sur 11.5.2 and Powerpoint for Mac 16.52

issue with ppt not opening my file and some other saved files. hi I would like apple fix my issue since now all shops are closed so this is the only to contact with apple or IStyle... so In my MacBook air I saved a file in powerpoint as pdf yesterday when I tried opening it to make changes and add some stuff it doesn't open I can just open it from the desktop but I want to open it from ppt like I usually do so I can make changes there but it says :"powerpoint can't open this type of file (CAREER PROJECT copy.pdf)." I tried saving it to different place to try if it opens in ppt but its the same also one time it said its from unidentified developer so I have to change in settings to "anywhere" but Idk how to do it since this option is not there.... so if you pls fix my issue it will be great even-though its not opening I wanted to do a new file because my project is due tomorrow but when I type the box in ppt disappear.

All i can offer you is this link to microsoft’s office and Big Sur... please note that the last version of “Office” at least with “office” in the name is Office 2019 , after that it’s known as Microsoft 365... and if you want a permanent subscription... you have to pay extra... /so, with that being said, here’s the link:
