Pages App not working on my Mac Laptop OS Monterey version 12.7.4

I know my laptop is rather old, however, up until fairly recently my Pages App worked perfectly fine and now I can’t create a new document open an old one. Not sure if it had anything to do with upgrading to Monterey from whatever I had before....but does anyone have any suggestions. I can’t even open it to close/remove the app and reinstall it and I’ve tried shutting it down to see if it would revive itself. Any help would be appreciated.



MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.7

You withheld the important information about what version of Pages you are using. Any iWork '09 or earlier applications will not work on macOS Catalina or later because they are 32-bit applications. The last version of Pages compatible with macOS Monterey 12.7.4 is Pages v13.1. The current version of Pages v13.2 in the Mac App Store requires macOS Ventura 13.* or later for installation.


Open a Finder Window. In its sidebar, click Applications and look for your Pages application icon. Click once on it and press option+cmd+i to open an information panel on which you will see the version of Pages. What is it?
