Can't open a Pages document :

Hello ! I have a big problem with a Pages document. I am a student and I take notes since one year on one Pages file.

But the big issue, is that when I try to open the document, it shows this :



Could you help me ? Thanks !

Greetings Minotaur943, 


Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities.


Looks like you are having trouble getting a Pages file to open back up after closing it. We know you said it started acting buggy, did you save the file before closing it? What file format does it show being saved as?


Have you tried to restart your Mac? Log out, sleep, wake, restart, or shut down your Mac


Try starting up in safe mode to see if the file will open. How to use safe mode on your Mac . 


Reach back out if you still need help.



Have a great weekend!
