Q: Why won't Pages sync between iCloud and iPhone?

A Pages document I edited in iCloud earlier has yet to update on my iPhone 6 (running iOS 9.2.1).  Normally, a document updates with an hour or two or when I open it in the other environment.  I am logged into iCloud on both sides and connected to the internet.  I have closed all the background apps on the iPhone and restarted it, to no avail.  Does anyone know how to get Pages to sync?

iPhone 6, iOS 8.1, 128 GB

    Well, mea culpa.  It took a few hours, but eventually Pages updated the files on the iPhone.  I appreciate the quick response, but I had already gone through all the steps in that article that were applicable.  I was just impatient.

     

    Gratefully,

    Richard

    Hi

    I am also having difficulties in syncing Pages documents between my Mac and iPad.

    This is only in the last few days and there are only currently two documents involved, one i amended on the iPad and one created on the Mac which have not synchronised. They are both shown with a 'hazy' cloud on their respective directories. 

    I followed the instructions on the information you provided but they still haven't updated

    Both devices are on my home wifi so there is no issue there

     

    regards
