Remove watermark in Pages (in a doc created in Word)

I cannot work out how to do this. I can make the master object selectable, but when I delete it, although the watermark disappears, there is still an icon that remains on all the pages in the document.
Please help!

Hi m.olson
Welcome to the forum.
+Menu > View > Show Layout+
There is probably something on top of it. Hold down the command key and click outside of the margins to get the pointer tool then drag select into the document. If you pick up more than one object, shift click on one to unselect it.
If the object has light crosses on the corners, it is locked:
+Menu > Arrange > Unlock+
If it is a background object:
+Menu > Arrange > Make Background Objects Selectable+
If it is a master object:
+Menu > Format > Advanced > Make Master Objects Selectable+

  • Why are pictures and pages missing from doc created in Pages 09 when I try to open it in the new Pages?

    I created a large document earlier this year in Pages 09 ... over 100 pages and it has screen prints, pictures and text boxes ... when I try to open it in the new Pages 5.5.1, all of these pics, text boxes, etc, are missing!!!  I can open it in the old Pages, and they are all there, but in the new Pages, half of my document is missing!  I want to have it work in the new Pages because what if I upgrade to a new computer ... I will not have access to Pages 09 anymore!  Plus, the "Page Layout" option is missing in Pages 5.5.1 - what was Apple thinking with this update?  Please help!

    Bean doesn't do layout and is no longer being developed.
    MsOffice or LibreOffice [free] are alternatives but not at the moment 100% solutions.
    MsOffice has most of the features in a clumsier fashion in most cases but is a bit of a kludge on the Mac.
    LibreOffice has a rather rough user interface and still lacks Pages '09 features.
    Really we are in Limbo until we get something else completely.
    For office work, I suggest LibreOffice or NisusWriter. Just so you can still get at it in the future.
    I have been warning about this inevitability for years. Hasn't made me popular.

  • Using Pages to edit document created in Word...Help!

    Hi! I'm fairly new to Mac and am experiencing much frustration while trying to edit a Word-created document in Pages. This document contained page numbers in the footer that I need to edit. Unfortunately, I am unable to change the page numbers in Pages. I try to click on the numbers and it doesn't do a thing. When I bring up the footer section in Pages, the text box falls just to the left of the page number.
    Any input would be appreciated SO much! I'm getting tired of borrowing a friend's computer to do work that I'm pretty sure I can do on my Mac.

    j,
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    This issue comes up rarely, but it is a known problem. There's something odd about how some Word files get translated into Pages format -- the page numbers get a little screwy. There are two things I can think of to try: 1) Click on Format > Advanced > Make Master Objects Selectable. If this works, you should now be able to select the page number ... or 2) Insert a small rectangle, wrap off, colored white, over the page number, then put a proper page number in either the header or the footer.
    Just so you know, I receive Word docs all the time with page numbers in them, and they translate fine. But every now and then I hear tales of the same problem you're having.

  • How to get pages docs created on a macpro to show up on iPad and iPhone both with ios5

    Yesterday (October 19, 2011) I updated to the latest OS's and pages app on my macpro and ipad2 and iphone3gs. When I create a pages doc on the macpro and save it I do not see it appear on the ipad2 and iphone3gs at all including within the pages docs window. Yet my iCalendar updates beautifully across all three devices. My question is what are the steps to get a pages doc created on a macpro to "automatically" become available and thereon update automatically in pages on my ipad and iphone?

    on Mac OS X there is no icloud enabled apps at this time. iWork09 for Mac wont sync your data to iCloud.
    To get documents to the cloud and thus to your IOS5 devices you need to visit www.icloud.com/iwork and manually upload your files  ( or use drag and drop from Mac Desktop to the browser ).
    This is no joke. Spreaded all over this support forums you find people that wondered how to do it until it was found out that iwork syncing is only enabled on iOS but not on OSX.

  • Trouble opening documents in word that were created in pages (even though i saved as word doc)

    I know how to save documents in pages to word format, I've seen the tutorials and read things over and over again about this. However, I am creating some documents in pages, saving them as word docs, emailing them to other people who are opening up on PC with word, but the formatting and the paragraphs are all messed up. I really need help so I can get my work done and my documents I create at home in pages will open up correctly in word by others.
    Thanks.

    So, an update of sorts.
    Turns out it's not a total hang—if I leave the ball spinning (for 30+ minutes), the open dialogue finally pops up... but it's in an empty home folder.
    We seem to have some sort of corruption of the home folder file hierarchy (there's an odd folder called "99" that appeared on the root of the server's main drive—I can't get access to it, and I don't want to monkey with the permissions until I can figure out what it is) that dates from the same time that our problem popped up. The only thing that I can think of that I changed at around that time was to add a new group home folder. Might I have mucked up the file system? (Shouldn't be that easy, should it? But hey, a little knowledge is a dangerous thing!)
    Any thoughts or suggestions? Could the problems (the phantom folder and the spinning ball of almost-doom) be related? Or am I simply dealing with a pair of peculiarities that are unrelated, or that are both symptoms of yet another problem, rather than cause and effect?
    Thanks to everyone who's chimed in so far for you input!
    But, to reiterate, help!

  • Hi, App Store tells me I have installed the latest Pages update, yet it will not open Pages docs created on other machines that DO have the latest version . Any tips?

    Hi
    Pages 5.0 and 10.9.
    While App Store tells me there is no update avalable to Pages, which it says was installed Nov. 4, its the old Avatar/logo thingo and, as I say, it will not open the Pages docs created on my MacBook, which definiitely does have the new Pages running smoothly.

  • How to create a watermark in Pages?

    I seem to remember there was a process by which an image could be use to create a watermark in pages but there is no longer anything in Help.  Is this still available?

    SG,
    Text Wrap:
    In the Wrap Inspector, with an object selected, you can select "Object causes wrap". The option causes the object to push text out of its way. You are telling me that you don't want this, so make sure the option is turned off.
    Background:
    The background layer is behind the text layer. If you want your objects (graphics, text boxes, shapes) to obscure the text that you type normally, leave the objects on top. If you would like to have the text overlay the objects, then send the objects to the Background.
    Section Master:
    Giving an object Section Master status causes it to repeat on every page of the section. That's every page of the document for most people since the average user doesn't make use of Section Breaks. I asked if your documents had more than 1-page, but I don't think you responded.
    Registration:
    You say you just want to type away on the text layer and have things line up with your background template. Good luck with that. You are going to have terrible problems with the pitch of your text matching the scale of your background object. You may be ok at the top, but by the time you get to the bottom of the page the chances are you will be off a half a line. Better to use Text Boxes and align each one with the appropriate region of the template.
    Dexterity:
    There are ways to deal with eye-hand coordination and steadiness issues. Objects can be shifted by using the arrow keys and they can be sized and positioned by using the Metrics Inspector. And, remember that you only have to do the tedious stuff once. After that, Save as Template
    The biggest problem I have with the new-fangled machines is that they are designed by kids with better vision than I will ever have again. They have no idea how much trouble us old guys have seeing the menus and instructions. The Mac App Store is one of the worst examples, where you can't even resize the text. The universal access tools for the vision impaired in System Preferences don't help me because I can't stand the look, or the loss of font smoothing. For critical work I reluctantly put on the strongest reading glasses and lower my nose to the screen.
    Good luck,
    Jerry

  • I am trying to get pages docs created on my iPhone onto my iMac

    I am trying to get pages docs created on my iPhone onto my iMac. I have iTunes 10.5 and the help docs says that in iTunes the Pages app should automatically list the docs on my iPhone. I am using the 'send to iTunes' option in the 'share and print' menu but no files appear in iTunes (the iPhone is connected and recognised by iTunes). Any ideas? The docs don't mention that I need a particular version on Pages on my Mac.
    Any help gratefully recevied.
    Andrew

    Dear Peter,
    Thank you for the suggestion. I have looked at the discussion you highlighted. Unfortunately, it does not really deal with the issue I am experiencing. The discussion concerns problems with iCloud. I am not attempting to use iCloud to transfer files.
    The discussion does mention using iTunes to first back up the files. However, the correspondent does not mention the problem I am experiencing. I understand from the help docs that when I after I have synced my iPhone, then the files I have created using Pages should be listed in the Apps part of iTunes. However, this does not seem to be so on my computer. The files do not appear even when I use the 'send to iTunes' option.
    Is there something I am missing?
    Any further help gratefully received,
    Andrew

  • I just started using the Pages app on my iPad2. Two questions: Do I have to buy the Pages iPhone app separately or will the iPad version sync to my iPhone 3GS? Am I able to sync Pages docs created on my iPad2 for viewing/editing on my iPhone 3GS?

    You can use the File Sharing feature at the bottom of the iTunes Apps pane when you connect to iTunes. Transfer the documents to your computer, and from there to your iPhone.

  • Using docs created w/ different wordpro program

    Is it possible for Pages to read docs I created on my old iMac using Appleworks? Is there a way to transfer these files from a cd to my newer computer so I can print/revise/edit these docs in Pages or do I need a different wordprocessing program?

    This question often responded,
    Pages is able to open most AppleWorks 6 Word Processing documents.
    Numbers is able to open most AppleWorks 6 Spreadsheets documents.
    Keynote is able to open most AppleWorks 6 Presentation documents.
    If you have DB documents, only AppleWorks may open them.
    If you have Draw documents, there is a third party which if I remember well is able to open them but I forgot its name.
    If you have Paint document, you will be forced to open them with Appleworks then export them in a public format.
    If the AppleWorks available on your old imac is an AW6 one, copy the entire AppleWorks 6 folder on a CD then copy it in the Applications folder of your new machine. Don't forget to remove it from the old imac.
    Assuming that it's a very old AW6, it will not be usable directly but you will be able to apply the AW 629 updater and so it will be OK for years.

  • Removing watermark from editable pdf

    I am trying to remove a watermark from a client's file to prepare it for translation.
    Background:
    I don't have access to the original file and need to remove the watermark so that individual letters will not get mixed in with body text.
    The watermark is internal version information for the client's use. It is not a copyright nor is it pertinent to the content.
    I am using Acrobat Standard 7, but could move to another computer that has some version of Acrobat Professional. Or could conceivably upgrade to a newer version (though I am under a time constraint).
    The files are unlocked.
    This watermark apppears to have been created in the original software, which is not an MS Office or Adobe product.
    Asking the client for a file without the watermark might be time-consuming as our contact may only have access to the pdf as well.
    I cannot send files out or post examples.
    For the first few short documents, I was having luck using the TouchUp Text tool to click on and delete on each page.
    For those, clicking on the watermark selected the text with a box around it so that it was clear that only the watermark was selected.
    Now I am working in a long document that seems to have no division between the watermark and body text.
    I can delete individual letters if I can restrict what I pick up, but selecting the watermark also grabs the text below it.
    Deleting actually removes body text from the pdf, which I don't think I've ever seen before. (Curious.)
    I understand that removing watermarks should not be easy, but I have to get the text without the watermark somehow.
    Other solutions create extra work and more deadline pressure.
    Any other possibilities?

    I was about to message you directly. Thank you for taking the time to consider this.
    I am able to delete text without redacting it.
    If I work in the standard mode (not advanced edting), my options are only to comment and mark up text, which is exactly what I am expecting from a pdf.
    But if I switch to advanced edit options, I am able to delete text.
    Which would be great if I could delete the watermark only, but I am able to delete content!
    Entire section of the TOC just disappeared, which is something I haven't seen happen even on editable pdfs.
    I do not want to delete anything except the extraneous version information sitting on top of the text I need.
    I usually work in a Word environment, so I want to use those abilities here.
    If I could just make the watermark something along the lines of "locked" or "hidden" it might be enough that it would not be picked up with the text.
    I've started the process of asking for a new version from the original, which very likely lives in a different time zone far away.
    I was just hoping for a faster solution.

  • When I try to open a Pages document from iCloud, created on my iPad, I get message stating I need a newer version of Pages.  When I go to app store all I get is "installed" when looking at pages app. my Macbook pro is up to date with all updates.

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5/5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.1 sometimes can not open its own files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has not only managed to confuse all its users, but also itself.
    Note: Apple has removed over 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:
    http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/viewforum.php?f=22&sid=3527487677f0c 6fa05b6297cd00f8eb9&mforum=iworktipsntrick
    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • Batch convert Pages files to Doc and stay in the same folder?

    Hi there,
    I use iWork '09 on Mountain Lion. I recently switched to Microsoft Word and prefer it over Pages (personal preference). However, I have nearly 1000 files on my computer that are in Pages format. I have extensively searched this issue in the Apple Support Communities and it appears that there are scripts that DO EXIST that batch convert Pages files into Word files. However, it appears that many of these scripts were built for older versions of iWork and therefore I run into various errors. For example, I used the script available at http://pagesfaq.blogspot.com/2008/01/export-folder-to-word-rtf-pdf-txt-or.html and click run but nothing actually happens (the script runs for less than a second, then I can click run again). I was able to use one script successfully (pasted below), but the only reason I can't use it is because it saves ALL my converted documents in one folder on my desktop and I would like a script that can save them in the original file were the Pages document is located.
    So, is there an iWork '09 compatible script that can convert my Pages documents to Word documents and save them in the same folder as the original? Oh, and for an added bonus, it'd be cool if the script also deleted my Pages version after it was done with the conversion
