Accent marks in Pages. I'm looking for a simple way to employ  accent marks when writing in another language WITHOUT using a different keyboard.

In Microsoft Word for PC, all one needs to do is hold the CTL key down, press the accent key needed, such as ` or ~ or ' for example, then press the letter key over which the accent should go.  Does Pages and Apple Mail not have such an easy way to do it?  Thanks to anyone who has a better way.

Type the dead letter and the vowel:
eg umlat is option u then the vowel = äëïöü
option i then the vowel = âêîôû
option e then the vowel i = áéíóú
option ` (above the tab key) then the vowel = àèìòù
option n then the letter = ñãõ
They are characters usually associated with the accent and have been standard on the Mac for decades.

  • Looking for a simple way to convert a string to title case

    New to LiveCycle and Javascript.  Looking for a simple way to convert a string to title case, except acronyms.  Currently using the the following, it converts acronyms to lower case:
    var str  =  this.rawValue;
    var upCase = str.split(" ");
    for(i=0; i < upCase.length; i++) {
    upCase[i] = upCase[i].substr(0,1).toUpperCase() + upCase[i].substr(1).toLowerCase();
    this.rawValue = upCase.join(' ');

    Thanks for the reply.
    Found the following script in a forum, which works fine as a "custom validation script" in the.pdf version of my form.  However, it will not work in LiveCycle?  The problem seems to be with
    "return str.replace(/[A-Za-z0-9\u00C0-\u00FF]+[^\s-]*/g"
    function toTitleCase(str) {
    var smallWords = /^(a|an|and|as|at|but|by|en|for|if|in|nor|of|on|or|per|the|to|vs?\.?|via)$/i;
        return str.replace(/[A-Za-z0-9\u00C0-\u00FF]+[^\s-]*/g, function(match, index, title){
    if (index > 0 && index + match.length !== title.length &&
      match.search(smallWords) > -1 && title.charAt(index - 2) !== ":" &&
    (title.charAt(index + match.length) !== '-' || title.charAt(index - 1) === '-') &&
    title.charAt(index - 1).search(/[^\s-]/) < 0) {
    return match.toLowerCase();
    if (match.substr(1).search(/[A-Z]|\../) > -1) {
      return match;
      return match.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + match.substr(1);
    event.value = toTitleCase(event.value);

  • I'm looking for a simple Notebook template for Pages.  Any help?

    I'm looking for a simple "notebook" looking journal that can be used in Pages.  This can also be a journal that has dates; actually, that is preferable, but just a notebook is a minimally satisfactory template.

    Hi Mark,
    No need to restrict your choice to the preset Pages Templates. Do a web search and choose a Word template. Pages will open Word documents and templates. Or design your own:
    This is a Table I inserted into a blank Pages Word Processing document. Format the date column in Inspector > Table > Format > Cell Format. Select the first Date cell,then drag the fill handle down to increment the dates.

  • SharePoint 2013 "Help Menu" not working (Sorry, the page you're looking for can't be found)

    The Built in SharePoint 2013 Help Menu (?) on our Enterprise Farm for both the sites and Central

    I'm interested in getting the local help to work while this is offline, I saw the following in an article, did you do this and it still does not work for you?

  • I am having a hard time with a page that is working for everyone else. When I click on anything in the site I get a message that says "The page you were looking for doesn't exist."  This is happening on both my ipad 2 and my iphone 5. I cleared my cache

    When I click on anything in the site I get the message " The page you were looking for doesn't exist."  This website works for everyone else, but not on my iPad 2 or iPhone 5. I cleared my cache and history on the iPad, but it still isn't working.

    I live in Germany and my credit card is in my native country of Holland .. then it
    doesn't accept my credit card.
    Your first statement explains the second statement. To use the German iTunes Store, you need to prove that you're a resident of Germany (that is required by the content owners who will not allow cross-border sales) and the only way Apple can provide such a verification is by requiring that you enter in either a German credit card or a German-purchased iTunes prepaid card. Since I presume the former is not a possibility, you'll need to do the latter if you wish to purchase content from the iTunes Store. Again, this is not Apple's choice but is forced on them by the content owners as a requirement for Apple being allowed to sell the content. The EU is working on regulations that would force the content owners to allow access pan-EU, but that's still in the works.
    You do not need an iTunes Store account to activate and run your iPad, though; at least, I didn't need one for either of my two iPads. If you only want to set up an account so you can get free iPad apps, take a look here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is apparently critical. This seems to come and go, or only apply to App Stores in specific countries, so you may not see the option for "None" when asked for a payment type.
    As to the German iTunes Store in English, you can comment to Apple on that via their feedback pages:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback
    Regards.
    P.S. Regarding "this is the only place for a complaint and that will no doubt get removed because
    I'm not full of happy joy sparkles.
    As stated in the terms of use to which we all agreed, this isn't a complaint forum, it's a technical support forum. You don't have to be full of "happy joy sparkles", but posts that are nothing but complaints may indeed be removed. If you want to complain to Apple, use the feedback pages.

    You've used the wrong name for the folder that holds the html page.
    http://web.mac.com/artworksforyouth/iWeb/Site/Home.html
    Is what it is trying to find (and it doesn't exist).
    www.artworksforyouth.org redirects to www.artworksforyouth.com which then redirects to your iWeb page.
    Rather than the word "Site" in your URL you need to use ArtWorks%20for%20Youth

    Well, that's more or less it, I'm looking for a simple drawing application for my grand-daughters. In the children section of iTunes store, there's only a few books and nothing more. I bought the iPad mainly for my grand-children to teach them a bit and I don't find interesting things for them.
    Can anybody help me with that?

    Brushes is a nice finger drawing app. Since you didn't say how old they are, I don't know if the interface is to difficult for them to use.
    Sketchbook is another nice drawing app.
    Neither are free.

  • Looking for a simple answer ........ without the ...

    looking for a simple answer  ........why is it more difficult for skype to connect than before . It fails to ring most times and your never sure if it is just slow or did not dial in the first place???  and is there any way to disable the leave a message feature ??? I am afraid soon it will be like most wondows applications where you will need endless updates and patches just to keep it running ..... Why is it that everyone is trying to fix everthing when it isnt broken.

    WTF? I'm sure you can find plenty of examples on google. It's on you to take the time to go through them, study them, and, if you still don't understand something, post a clear, concrete question that indicates what you read and what you didn't understand about it.
    As is, you're essentially treating folks here as your research flunkies and saying, "Give me an example that's better than all the ones already easily available to me. Read my mind to know why I didn't like them."
