When you installed the latest version of Pages (and other iWork apps), the older versions were saved in a folder named "iWorks '09" in the Applications folder. You're trying to open a document that was saved in Pages 5 or in Pages for iOS using the older version of Pages. What you probably need to do is remove the Dock icon and drag Pages 5 into the Dock.

See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6049 and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5994 (allows reverting files to iWorks '09 format).
