I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

The template is a document in itself, it is not applied to an existing document whether it is a Pages document or a Word document converted to a Pages document.
You would need to either copy and paste content, using existing styles, or apply the styles to the converted Word document.
You can Import the Styles from an existing document and those imported Styles can be used to override the current document's styles:
Menu > Format > Import Styles
The process is simplified if the styles use the same names, otherwise you will need to delete the style you don't want and replace it with the one that you do want when asked, then the substitution is pretty straightforward.

    My iphone4 has the correct Apple ID in the information settings section and asks me to login to my ID most of the time but when I try to update my apps, it asks me to login with an ID that isn't mine.  I deleted the wrong ID from my itunes but it still won't let me login with my own ID to update apps.  How do I get my iphone on the same page?

    How did you obtain these apps? All apps are DRM protected & tied forever to the account used to originally obtain them. They cannot be transferred to another Apple ID(account), nor can they be updated using any Apple ID other than the one that was used to originally obtain them.

    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Firefox can have multiple home pages if you wish. Each home page that will open when starting Firefox is separated by the "|" character.

  • It keeps changing the browser window, some programs in one window, others in another. How do I get everything back on the same window? I want this disabled but not sure how to do it, or how I even got it started.

    I'm not even sure what to call this or how it got started on my computer. There is one finder window for firefox, and another for other programs etc. I want them all back in the same finder window, please! What feature is this which got things split up, and how do I disable it?

    The Get Info. fields show up gray if the files is locked and iTunes knows it can't edit the file. Make sure the files are not marked as read only and, if necessary grant both your account and system full access to all files and subfolders of your media folder.
    You can set Part of a Compilation for multiple tracks from the Options tab of Get Info.

  • How do you get PDFs to display the same fonts everywhere?

    I have Adobe Acrobat 7 and I'm trying to convert a Word document into a PDF. It is set to embed fonts. The whole point of putting it into a PDF is so we can mail it around and it will look the same to everyone. However, when viewed on another computer (which presumably doesn't have our special font), it displays wrong. No error was displayed during the creation of the PDF. This is becoming intensely frustrating as we create a lot of documents to be printed by other people.
    I have tried disabling "use local fonts" to see how it would display on other computers, but it looks identical to what I'm expecting. It's only a problem on other people's computers.

    Also, when you say you have it set to embed the fonts, just how did you do that setup and how did you create the PDF from WORD - print to the Adobe PDF printer or PDF Maker, as well as what job settings file that was used. You may have done it all correctly and it is a font issue as graffiti has mentioned, but there are other issues that may have been created with your process that may also answer the question.
    Looking to see if the fonts are embedded is the first step to resolving the issue.

  • New Mac Air and HP monitor.  The monitor only displays the background.  How Can I get both to display the same thing?

    I have a new Mac Air and want to use my HP Monitor HPLP2475w to save $$.  I attached it to the Mac Air but all I get is the background of my laptop.  How do I get this to match or use in the dual mode.
    Thanks,

  • How do I get citations to reference the same endnote?

    I have a Pages document with small uppercase numbered endnotes that reference the same book or artilce in the bibliography at the end of the document.  I want it to read something like this simple sample text:
    Stars are big balls of hot glowing gas (1). Our sun is an average star (2). Blue white stars are hotter than red stars (1) The surface of our sun is hotter than the center.(2)
    1. Joe's Book on Stars. Stellar Publishing 2014
    2. Our Sun. Solar Publishing 2014
    The problem is I can only get the small uppercase endnotes in the text to be consecutive 1,2,3,4, 5, etc. I don't want this. I want to be able to have some piece of text linked to the same number in the bibliography at the end so that the text citations could be something more like the simple example above like, 1, 2,3 2, 2, 2, 4, 2, 1, 4, etc.
    Can you please tell me how to do this in either Pages or Open office?
    Thanks

    Thank you for your reply but when I go to the top menu and insert a footnote or endnote the program does not give me the option of manually putting in a number. The number is put in automatically and I can only choose numbering that is continuous, restart with each section or restart with each page.
    I am using Page '09 version 4.3 (1048)
    Can you tell me what I am doing wrong or give me another suggestion?
    Thanks

    PRAM RESET
    Zap the PRAM

    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.

    Please help!  I have just uploaded my iweb site to a FTP Host and most of the site is ok however a lot of the text has gone wrong!  Many thanks...

    Maybe you could let me know which hosting service you are using so that I can add them to my list of those NOT recommended for iWeb users!
    I just dealt with one today who claimed the iWeb sites were incompatible and that the first line of code should be deleted from every HTML file before upload to their server.
    They didn't even offer the information that it would be a lot easier to modify the .htaccess file never mind offer to do it for a customer.
    Nobody should expect to pay for service like this and the answer is to dump them and go to a company that gives you some value and support for your money. If the ones on this page don't meet your requirements for cost and service...
