Hi Anne, I was reading up on some Pages issues and you’re not alone in your frustration with Mail Merge fields and such. I noticed that when upgrading from iWork 09 to the new Pages and such that my old version of iWork 09 remained on my Mac in my Applications folder. Yours should have done the same since you were running from a older CD install of iWork. If you didn’t already get rid of it, you are able to run the Pages 4.3 in Mavericks as well and the Mail Merge functionality is still there. If not, you should still be able to re-install it from your original CD then have both usable copies of Pages. Not the best way of running things but may help with some of the lost features that you were accustomed to. Beyond that, it appears that quite a number of people have been letting Apple know their disappointment with these feature losses and maybe they will re-instate them in a future update.
