Apple recently introduced a new version of the iWork suite of office productivity apps and announced that all new Mac and iOS devices will get it for free.
Well, if you’re not purchasing a new Mac but have upgraded to the new OS X Mavericks, you can get in on the action with a simple workaround. If you have already installed old iWork and iLife go to step 6 and just update.
Step 1 Quit the App Store app
Step 2 Visit Softpedia
Step 3 Download and Install the DMG file
Step 4 Open up at least one of the applications and select 30 day trial
Step 5 Wait a few minutes (1-2 min)
Step 6 Open up the App Store app
Step 7 Check the Updates tab and you should see an update for iWork
Step 8 Install updates
Step 9 You will now have two copies of each application. Erase the old ones from the iWork folder.
