Numbers new and old

[Diana]

Now I have another question.

As I have reverted back to using Numbers v2 in iWork rather than v3 in Maverick how do I make Numbers v2 the default?  Do I need to uninstall the newer version of Numbers if I am not using it?

Could I reinstall v3 if I wanted to?

I have realised that in changing back to using v2 I may be confusing my Mac Mini by having v3 installed.

It should be sufficient to find a Numbers document in the Finder, select File >Get Info (or right click) and from the Open with: popup, choose the old version of Numbers. Then, select the Change All ... button below and answer Continue.

That *should* do the job but some people have had their Macs still using the later version of Numbers after doing that. That may have been addressed in OS X 10.9.1 if it was an issue.

What I do is place a link (alias) to Numbers in the dock, and launch my spreadsheets by dragging them onto the dock alias.

I also throw away the aliases in the dock to the new Numbers.

It’s not fantastic, but it works.

Thank you for that.  Seem to have got into a real muddle this morning.

Easily done!

Stephen's solution is the way forward if you only want to use v2 going forward, and is what I've done.

Can always revert things should you want to use the latest.

Thank you.  I think this solution suits very well.
