Pages - open recent Menu / Clear

Pages is not save the link to my recent documents more when I go to reopen with File / Open Recent.  Now, he just says "clear Menu".  In the past, it was very convenient to be able to return quickly in a recent document without having to click on file / open and then dig for it.

Any advice on how to get the Pages to keep the documents 'Open recent element' again?

Thank you!

Open recent items is managed through system preferences: general group: recent items selector.

    Hello junglejim,.

    Welcome to the communities of Apple Support!

    It seems that you are having problems to open recent documents in Pages and Numbers because the lists 'Open the recent item' are now empty. I know how it is to use the option "Open the recent item" for quick access to the documents you have worked on so I can understand why the suddenly empty menu would cause concern it.

    If you are unsure that you have accidentally selected the "Clear Menu" option at the bottom of the "Open recent item" list, there are a few other things we can explore to refine the why this happened. The first would be bound to an external hard drive. If you have a hard drive connected to your Mac where you saved your number and documents Pages and you disconnected the disk, it can cause the "Open recent item" list is more to show those who record the items.

    Another possible cause can be the settings of your Mac. Follow these steps:

    1. Open on your Mac System Preferences by clicking the  logo in the upper left corner of your screen.
    2. Select 'General '.
    3. Down, select the drop down beside where it says "recent items". If the "recent items" are defined as 'none' instead of the number, it can cause you to display more recent documents in number and Pages.

    Although your documents to appear in 'open the recent item"currently, you can still locate these documents if you have backed up on your Mac, an external hard drive or iCloud drive. If you do not save your documents as you work on it, I highly recommend that you start doing so to proceed in order to avoid data loss. In case you are not familiar with iCloud drive, here are some great resources for her:

    Once you have made sure that the "recent items" in the preferences system is not set to 'none', your next step would be to open or to create a few documents in number and in Pages, close and reopen the number and Pages, and check if these documents, you have just opened, created are showing in 'Open recent' to ensure it works as expected today.

  • 'Open recent' only shows "clear menu".

    When I pull up on the tab 'Open recent' numbers (and Pages), it shows "Clear Menu" - it does not show my recent files. I thought I fixed this time before. Why it is failing in the Menu 'clear' and how do I change it back so that it gives me my documents recently opened real?

    Hi Ken,

    Possibly a recent update reset the recent open to zero.

    Open system preferences > General > recent items.

    Type a value (say 10)

    Quit System preferences.

    If number is running, save your work, exit and restart numbers.

    Open some documents numbers and open the recent item will begin to list them.

    Kind regards

  • file does not appear in 'open recent '.

    After I finished work on an image in PS CC 2015, I save it and close it.  When I return to the PS and go to file, open the latter, it does not appear in the drop-down list.  Only much more old files appear, never one I just finsihed working on.  It's constant since I bought the CC.

    I use PS CC 21015 on Windows 7.  Is there a setting that I can hire to the last file I worked on to appear on recent configurations?

    Suggest you go to the file menu in Photoshop > open the recent item > clear recent files list > restart Photoshop and then check if the list of recent files is updated.

  • Why Firefox page opens when I run the application it even when I have a selected homepage

    I recently selected latest version of Firefox and vere from the overview page opens as well as my home page. I want to just my home page to open when I launch the browser.

    OK, so it seems that there are two things that can happen here:

    • "See what's new" is now defined (as well as your regular home page) as your home page. You can re - choose your homepage simply only one page of the home button sliding. The details are in How to set the home page.
    • If you tried the solution above and it does not work, it may be that Firefox isn't able to save this preference for some reason any. In this case, reset Firefox will fix this. Instructions to reset are here - Refresh Firefox – reset settings and Add-ons. After resetting Firefox, you get to choose your homepage again.

    I have the latest version of firefox (before the beta 4 of course)
    and I never had any problems with it, I used to connect through ebuddy all the time
    All of a sudden these pages as when you type your email and password on ebuddy, it opens another secondary page on right side? These pages, suddenly open but remain clear and white with no link and nothing.
    and they do not open on another site who provide them, I just mentioned ebuddy as a way to explain what I mean.
    is it the settings? or it lies with firefox?

    I really need help,
