How to update Pages and create folders for Pages documents

I’m using pages version 14.5 (7045.0.17) on a Apple M2 sonoma 14.7.6 (23H626). I understand that there is a newer version of pages. How do I update and how do I create master folders of pages documents with subfolders?


Why in the would I wait for you to answer when the world has progressed to Ai?

You update by downloading the new version from the App Store.

However, the new version of Pages requires macOS 15 Sequoia so you won't be able to update while on Sonoma.

Update to Sequoia or Tahoe first and you can then download the new version of Pages from the App Store.

To create Folders you can so in Finder, by right clicking on an empty area and selecting New Folder from the context menu.

You are free to ask A.I if you are that impatient, threats don't work here we have no vested interest in where you get your answers, we are all just Apple users volunteering our time to help others. If you don't appreciate that you can just ask AI instead, but you won't get the human context sensitive reply, and you may get inaccurate or entirely wrong answers, though many times they will prove a correct and useful answer. So at the end of the day it's entirely up to you.

The Pages community is not staffed by Apple personnel, nor is it based on A.I. results, which may be erroneous and not relevant to newer versions of Pages.


Your fellow Mac users, who have varying degrees of Pages experience will respond based on their available personal time, not on any perceived support schedule, or ASAP. The best knowledge about Pages is found here, not elsewhere on the Internet.

You’ve been watching too much drama. Treats are at levels far beyond where myself or a volunteer for the Apple community lives. In fact Ai answered my question with far more details and explanations then you’ve provided. I thank you, however for your attempt. My experience is that inthe current state of play, these computer giants who refuse to play nice in the sandbox, none of them possess the ability to make simple operations intuitive for the average housewife at the stove. ALL and I mean ALL are too busy trying to make themselves indispensable and worthy of a paycheck when in fact they are all going to be pounding the pavement, glad to get a job as a check. Don’t lose your dayjob is my advice and I didn’t need Ai to come to that conclusion.

My experience is that in the current state of play, these computer giants who refuse to play nice in the sandbox, possess but don’t offer the ability to make simple operations intuitive for the average housewife at the stove. ALL and I mean ALL programmers and operations analysts are too busy trying to make themselves indispensable and worthy of a paycheck when in fact they are all going to be pounding the pavement, glad to get a job as a check. Don’t lose your dayjob is my advice and I didn’t need Ai to come to that conclusion.


Your average reply was exactly what was stated in the expectations before I entered the community. This was more playtime for me than anything else, to see where CRM has lowered itself for a fat company that won’t offer it themselves. They know Ai will take the reins. If they were smart like most of the other fortune 500 companies that have adapted they would add that service. They are slow but I’ll bet anything they acquiesce.


Though Word works in a similar manner they have made the operation simpler because they bothered to offer that operation in drop down menus with the manipulation of files hidden so that it becomes mindless.


Creative managment over clean physical and museum worthy package.
