Hi Jerry, here's what I tried:
-Repaired permissions, no fix.
-Created new guest account, opened Pages and tried to save a blank template; app froze.
-Went back to my user account, trashed the Pages .plist pref, restarted, tried to save a blank template; app froze.
-Installed iWork on my G5 PowerMac, OS 10.5.8, updated iWork to 9.0.4, and Pages (now 4.0.4) works fine.
I can't update my G4 PowerBook to iWork 9.0.4 (Pages 4.0.4). Software update says I am up to date at version 4.0.3. Even though Apple says iWork will work on a G4 with 10.4.11, they state the system requirements for the specific update to 9.0.4 says you need OS 10.5.6 or later.

Hi!
If Pages doesn't work in a new user account it is probably the application that is having a problem.
I would delete IWork and install it again. Beware you have to delete the iWork '09 folder in Macintosh > Library >Application Support. Delete them from the trash. Restart the computer. Install iWork. Update iWork through Software Update Check.

You didn't read carefully.
When it was introduced, Apple said that iWork '09 was compatible with 10.4.1. I know that for sure that it was because I used it on this system during the full year 2009.
It was true for original version, update v2 and update v3.
When Apple delivered the update v4, they claimed that it was compatible with 10.5.6 and higher.
You may check that at :

The description available in AppleStore continue to say that it's compatible with 10.4.11 because the product available in the box is the original version. Same thing for the downloadable trial version which may be used for more than 30 days if we buy a registration code.

Hello, is there anything to try when using 10.4.11 on a G4 PowerBook? I am using Pages 4.0.3, and to get to 4.0.4, I apparently have to upgrade my OS. Pages crashes continuously, I can't print or do much of anything with it. Did manage to save one file. Not ready to upgrade the OS on the PB yet, but maybe I'll have to do that?
