Guys, I finally got it working. While Daisy Worm was a no go for this, InDaisy seems to work like a champ. It took a minute to get the file to open. This appears to be because I didn't hold my finger down on the file long enough initially. Whatever the case, I now have a perfectly working copy

If I save the file by the means you mentioned, will importing the memo into iTunes reference it at this location such as on the desktop, or will it actually move a copy of the file into my physical iTunes library?  I don't want to keep a copy of this memo on my desktop once I've imported it into iT

Well, that's the reverse of what I was asking for, but it will work perfectly. I was wanting Pages to disregard the state of open files while Safari would retain what was open. I guess the thing to do is to retain the global setting to on and use the command option q for Pages to hose open files.
