Editing Document on iWork on iOS (Pages, Number, iWork)

Although iWork can also access the Locations feature and therefore the NAALocation this is not the best way to access files because updates will not be save back to the original destination but will remain in iCloud.

The best way to configure any of the iWork Apps for Th Access Anywhere is to use Webdav.

Pre-Requisites: WebDav is enabled on Access Anywhere

  1. Launch the iWork App

  2. Click 'Browse' and 'Locations' in the top left



  3. Click on 'WebDav'

  4. Click on 'Connect to WebDav Server'

  5. Enter your Access Anywhere server address, username and password (see here for further info)

You will now have access to your Access Anywhere files using WebDav and any changes will be saved back to the original location and original files will be versioned if versioning is turned on.

Other Mobile Office Editing Apps

Other mobile office editing Apps may also work and be configured for us with iOS and Android. For example WPS Office for Android and iOS can be configured with WebDav to provide direct editing and updating for Access Anywhere files.
