What happened to "save as"

I just upgraded to pages 09. There is no longer a "save as" selection in the file drop down menu. I open documents and make revisions, then want to save the revised document with a new name. How can I do this without "save as"???

To get to the old Save As… dialog box you need File > Duplicate then File > Save…

What?

You don't have the "Save As..." function?

I just updated to Lion and the latest Page 4.1 and have and been using the "Save As..." How come you don't have it? Did you delete the function by mistake? Or other thing that may be wrong on your system is the fact you don't have enough memory? How much memory do you have installed? Or maybe you run out of room/space on your hard drive? Or something may be wrong with your machine and especially I would recommend to have your computer be checked by a specialist to see what's the status of your CPU. Or you may need to reformat your hard drive and do a fresh install of Lion and the latest iWork. Are you having an i7 or i5 processor?. Or it may be the time to get a new machine. I really cannot pin point the problem for you but it looks you've got some major trouble there.

LOL. No. I didn't and I don't. I use MS Word when word processing is needed. I got here by searching for "what happened to 'save as.'" Hadn't realized this has been a problem for several years!


I used to have Snow Leopard on my MacMini. Now I've got this godforsaken Mavericks on my Macbook Air (which I use mostly in clamshell mode with full-size monitor and keyboard).


For my business I use Preview a lot to make quick edits to photos and other images, and THAT is where I'm missing "save as."


Guess I'll live without it.


Will probably get a PC next time around, as Apple is becoming just as bad as Microsoft as far as paying attention to the customer. Why patronize a company that's going in the wrong direction?


I don't use or need or want or like an iPad. Why would I want my computer to behave like one?

I nearly lose my mind trying to scroll with the scroll bar on this OS. It's the pits.


Thanks for help, regardless.
