I have Safari 11 installed and it has no effect on my Pages v6.3 behavior. Yes, it is possible that a ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWork.Pages package is missing. Mine is present though.
I still believe that you have run software on your Mac that has aggressively stomped on valid applications, or removed parts of them.
Mac Cleaner may still remain part of the problem, even though you believe that you have removed it with another "cleaner" application that you call DetectX. You should avoid all so-called "cleaner" applications as they have caused no end of problems for Mac users over time.
At this point, you might consider reinstalling Pages v6.3 from the App Store. I normally do not recommend this, but if it is damaged, then do so.
Another tool that we recommend, and is written by a frequent contributor to the support communities, is Etrecheck. Preserving your privacy information, it will produce a detailed report (which you can post back here) of what is installed on your machine, including any detected Malware, and the option to remove it. It will also detect if you really cleaned out Mac Keeper, or just parts of it.
If you did not obtain Adobe Flash directly from the real Adobe Flash download site, then that may also be a source of malware, but usually would have no bearing on fixing the Pages v6.3 issue that you report.
Thanks for your help and advice VikingOSX. I do feel my problem is in some way related to the update as it started after the update. Do you have any suggestions as to who might be able to help me?
I updated Adobe Flash Player on 12th Sept.
I have just deleted MacKeeper from my system, using DetectX. I restarted my iMac and it made no difference to the problem I was having 😟
Sorry for delay in replying. I was away for few weeks. I deleted Pages, emptied trash, deleted Mac Keeper references and problem still the same.
When I press shift+command+G and paste the red-ink I just get a list of my desktop files and nothing containing the driver in the red ink.
Hi there,
Just wondering did you have any success with your Pages 6.3 problem?
How can I open my pre-6.3 documents on Pages without being asked if I want to save it as a 'single' or 'package'?
