Whatever instructions are on the internet or in Apple, Macbook Pro 2021 cannot make Pages open with a blank template even when set correctly in Settings. Just a button at the bottom of the screen with word New Document. Want to open Pages, and have blank template to be there automatically and ready to type. This has been the problem since Monterey and continues with Ventura.
MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 13.0
If you are getting a file chooser on Pages launch, then you have selected the Pages item in one of the following. Deselecting Pages as shown below, will restore a default blank template, or the Template chooser based on your Pages application Preferences/Settings.
Monterey & earlier:
System Preferences > Apple ID > iCloud Drive [ Options… ] > [ ] Pages
Ventura:
Settings > Your Name/Apple ID > iCloud Drive [On] > Apps Syncing to iCloud Drive [ Options… ] > [ ] Pages
In Ventura Settings, Apple has given new meaning to the term "tucked away."
Ah! Tucked away in Options! Thank you so much. Not ever set by me as I avoid iCloud for most things.
Indeed! thanks again.
You are welcome.
