Under 'Settings'(for Pages, Keynote and Numbers) you can change 'Document Storage' from 'iCloud Drive' to 'On My iPad'. This way you'll get the 'folders' for Pages, Keynote and Numbers in the Files.app and in the apps as well.
Thanks Samu, that works now. I had ‘on my iphone’ selected In the files app itself, but seems you have to enable it in Pages as well to be able to use the app at all.
True... If you select 'iCloud Drive' in the side-bar while in Pages you can create a document but you can not directly create a document in 'On my iPad' without enabling it in the settings. This is a BAD move on Apples part to force people to store stuff on iCloud...
Yep, it's even worse on the phone as you have no sidebar, and if you don't know to enable it via the settings you can't use Pages at all.
Typical Apple, smells of iTunes and the like.
True, Apple never admits they do anything 'wrong' but still end up fixing a thing or two 'silently' with updates
Same with the 'backup issues' I had with my Air 2.
With both iTunes and iOS 'up to date' it works again but before they were released I was recommended to do factory restores, try other cables and other BS when it in fact was a bug in the software.
I'm pretty sure we'll see another round of 'Pages, Keynote, Numbers' updates for both iOS and macOS when macOS High Sierra ships on the 25th to 'fix a thing or two'...
I can confirm that iOS 11 works on iPad Air 1. Not the fastest performance but it works. I don't rant about software but I gotta say that the AppStore is really in a mess. I really don't understand why apple cannot get the app store or iTunes right ever since.
Nevertheless, I love the new dock. Yay
I sense an iOS11.1 update coming within the month or so...
In iTunes on the iPhone, the main title (e.g. ‘Apps’) takes up 25% of the screen.
That is not good design and a waste of screen space. So for a company noted for it, they’ve dropped the ball on that one.
And this one...

We'll see where things go. The apps I use the most work without any issues so for now I'm 'ok' with it
As a designer, and one who’s worked for big corporations creating style guidelines to ensure consistency across all platforms, I’m shocked at the sloppiness of this.
This just shouldn’t happen.
Pages seems to be working fine here on my iPhone in iOS 11, as long as I'm in browse/Locations/iCloud Drive. (Which is where I keep everything, so it works for me). There's a Plus button at the top to add a new file as well, but only when I'm in the iCloud Drive.
*** Oh, good to know about the settings in Pages to change between iCloud and local storage. Since I work on the same files on my iMac and iPad, iCloud storage is a must for me...
@hightunnels, have you been able to get midi and or audio to go the other way, from Mac to iPad?
Have not--pretty sure you can only do that with Studiomux

It works on the iPad.
Errr, just made that change, and Pages isn’t showing up in Files. I’ll try a reboot...
EDIT
Nope, still not working.
Not updating anyfin till I know if my old version of Anytune is gonna work.
You'll have to create a document in Pages first before the folder is visible in Files.app.
(Ie. enable 'on this device' for pages, start pages, and create a document, go to Files.app and it should be there).

Tried that, and still not there. Fed up now, so will have another bash tomorrow. Goodnight.
That’s what got me - I couldn’t create a document so it was the old chicken/egg scenario. In the end I opened a document from Dropbox, and saved that on the phone. Still couldn’t open it in Pages, but it seemed to kick it into action and I could then activate phone saving and create new documents.
It’s a fudge, basically. Lack of attention to detail again.
On the plus side I’ve just discovered Notes allows drawing and photo import, so I probably won’t use Pages now anyway.
Overall though I wish I hadn’t updated.
This is my first post. I just wanted to thank the membership here. I do a bit of music on iOS. I've gotten wonderful advice from reading this forum. I knew I would be able to get some solid information about iOS 11 by visiting today and I was not mistaken. I haven't decided if I'll update (iPad Air2) yet. Thanks for this discussion.
Once you’ve clicked “enable” on your iOS device in AudioMidi on the Mac as described above then yes Midi comes from the Mac to the iOS no problem. There will be a new Midi out port called iPad you can just choose as a track output in Ableton.
I had great fun today using my iPad as an external synth module
However - Audio is one way only... from iOS to Mac, not from Mac to iOS unfortunately. I am really hoping they make it bidirectional.
Do you need the latest version of OSX? I’m running a couple of updates behind.
Not sure about earlier OS's sorry - I've got my 2012 MacBook running Sierra quite happily.
No worries, I’ll give it a test tomorrow. I need to update my 2012 MacBook Pro OS at some point anyway, so I’ll have to check out if my old hard drive needs updating first.
lol...yeah....kinda thought that was the case but hoped it wasnt. Im definitely not ready to update my Mac OS anytime soon. Maybe Ill look into installing a separate SSD drive or something and install an OS on that. I tried studiomux out a while back but it had some issues that needed to be worked out.
My experience has been ok. Some rough edges... but nothing catastrophic. I've had to reinstall a handful of apps after the update, like Lumafusion, and TiltVideo... I think a couple others too.
Unless you're just dying to nerd out on some of the new interface goodies, I'd say hold off at least the first update. The new stuff isn't that incredible for regular use that you shouldn't wait a little bit for it to get smoothed out a little more first.
Definitely some weirdness going on, I created a new Page, and it was saved in my Pixelmator folder. So I decided to see what happens with a new pixelmator file, so I made a new one, then I exported that, and I saw I could send it to my pages folder ( which didnt even exist before )..... go figure....all seems to be fine now. I still dont think the new files system is as useful as I thought it was going to be at the present time, I thought we'd be able to just create folders and things would be a lot more seamless
Good to know about the midi, thanks!
Welcome, it is indeed a font of knowledge here.
Going on the reports from the trenches I'll be updating tonight, seems solid.
Samplr still works, right?
Does that mean that you don't have the latest version of Anytune Pro that is minus the one special feature that will not be mentioned here?
