    Welcome to Apple Support Communities

     

    You have OS X Lion and it requires OS X Mountain Lion. You can upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion, so open App Store > Purchases, and download Mountain Lion (I tell you this because it looks like you already have Mountain Lion in your other iMac; if you didn't purchase Mountain Lion, purchase it).

     

    While it's being downloaded, make a backup of your files and check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com When the download finishes, the Mountain Lion installer will show up, so follow its steps. After upgrading, open a iWork application and you will be able to see the iCloud files.

     

    Another way to see them without upgrading is to open http://www.icloud.com, log on with your Apple ID and select iWork
