Adding Pages template from iTunes

I just downloaded the "Templates for Pages" though the APP store.
I have a MAC OS X Version 10.7.4..I downloaded this app successfully and now I have no idea where it is or how I can access it for use.
Any thoughts on where to activtae this 24.99 $ purchase

Those template packages you buy from the Mac App Store are actually standalone applications. You will find them in your Applications folder & you should find an icon in Launchpad. In Launchpad, the most recent applications installed are usually on the last "page." Find the application & launch it to use the templates.

Adding Pages Templates

Using Pages 1.0.2. Just downloaded new Pages templates from KeynotePro but can't figure out how to load them.
I created a Templates folder in the Pages>iWorkfolder, but still I don't see the new templates.

Hello DarqDiva,
go to the folder "<YourHD>/Users/<YourAccount>/Library/Application Support/iWork/Pages/Templates/My Templates" and save the templates there or create a new folder beside the "My Template" folder and save them inside. It is important that you don't save the templates in the folder "Templates", because Pages will not see them there. They have to be saved inside of a folder inside of "Templates".
This folder name will be displayed in the bottom half of the left list column in the template choosing window.

Creating Pages template from Photoshop layout

I need to create a Pages template from a Photoshop layout. I don't have the time to create one myself and am looking to hire someone to do this. Is there a User group or some other place where I can find someone to do this for me?
Thanks in advance for any help.

A method to create completely customized photo book page templates from scratch in Lightroom 5

I was able to successfully create completely customized Lightroom 5 page templates (including altering the number of, positions, and sizes of pictures) by making edits to the templatePages.lua file(s) in the Lightroom directory tree. I have never heard of the LUA file format before, but it is ASCII and looks somewhat like XML, so it was fairly easy to decipher. Here is a high-level description of how I did it. This applies to Lightroom 5 on Windows 7. If this doesn't make any sense to you, then don't try it - you're likely in over your head. Although my description is brief and lacking in detail, it should enable someone who is capable of handling this to figure it out with a little of careful trial and error. Do this at your own risk - if you screw-up your installation, catalog, or computer, it's your own fault. It all worked great for me.
First, open the "<lightroom 5 install directory>\Templates\Layout Templates" folder. Then navigate to the template set that contains the template you would like to use as a starting point for the new template. For example, "12x12-blurb\clean12x12". Make a back-up copy of the templatePages.lua file in case you mess something up and want to revert.
There will be a bunch of .jpg files in this directory that each contain a preview image of the layout that carries the same name as the .jpg file. Find the one that you would like to use as a starting point. Take note of the name of the file, which is probably something similar to "page_26_preview.jpg". Duplicate the file and rename it to something unique, such as "dummy_preview.jpg". It's just temporary, so it doesn't matter what name you pick, provided it is a legal file name with no spaces.
Next, open the templatePages.lua file in a text editor. I suggest using one that can automatically recognize and format ULA (such as Notepad++, which is open source and free to use). Then search the file for the unique portion of the file name you took note of earlier, such as "page_26". It will point you to a section in the LUA file that describes that particular template. Carefully copy that entire section, including a balanced number of brackets (starting with the two brackets and commas before "children" and ending with the one bracket and comma after the "title" line. Paste the copied text into the end of the file on a new line immediately following the bracket and comma after the "title" field for the last page template section (right near the end of the file). Change the "previewName" field to the name of the preview file copy that you created ("dummy_preview.jpg" for me) and the "name" field to the name of the new template you're creating ("dummy" for me, since it is just temporary). Next change at least one of the hex characters in the "pageID" field such that the new template will have a unique page identifier.
Now you can make edits to the photo and text fields included in the new section, using other templates in the template file as examples. "x" and "y" fields are coordinates (in pixels) for the bottom-left corner of the picture or text field, "height" and "width" are the width of the field in pixels. The fields should be mostly self-explanatory, but make sure that the "photoindex" fields are filled-in starting from 1 to N, where N is the number of pictures in the template, with no duplicates or gaps. They do not need to be in order. Treat the "textIndex" fields similarly for text fields. If you want to add an additional picture or text field, simply copy the section describing a picture or text field from another template and paste it, carefully, into the new template that you are creating.
Once you are done, save the file (you may get interference from Windows UAC, in which case save the file elsewhere and the move it back to the correct directory). Then open Lightroom. Create a new photobook, and choose the new template for one of the pages, remembering that the preview image will look like the JPG that you copied. Voila! If you didn't screw anything up, you should see a page based on your new template. Then right-click the page and select "Save as custom page", which will cause a fresh preview file to be created for your new template and your template to be copied to the "custom pages" section of the template menu. The new section you added to the "templatePages.lua" and the "dummy" preview file can now be deleted, since they are no longer needed. I save them so that I may simply overwrite them the next time I need to create a customized template.
Enjoy, and please share any clarifications, corrections, or enhancements to my process.

This post was great! Thank you so much. But I am hoping you know one more thing related to this. In the "transform" section of the definition (where the x/y coordinates are set along with height and width) there is an option called "angle". I was hoping that changing this value would allow me to offset the angle of the picture. However, if I put any value there other than 0 the template becomes unusable.
Do you happen to know what this option does?
I haven't looked into the files, so this is just a guess based on how some graphic applications work. It's common to think of rotating a shape as pivoting around a center point, but It's possible that the file sets a value for the rotation point not at the center. In some graphics applications, you can set a shape's pivot at any corner or in the middle of any side, of the rectangle that contains the whole shape.
So, your value may be rotating the shape around a pivot that moves the shape into some area that upsets the behavior of other shapes. Just a thought.

Peter's point is a good one. I would also assume that the "angle" property allows you to rotate an image, but I haven't tried it myself. One thing to investigate - are there any page templates included in LR that have image placeholders that are at an angle (I don't recall any, off-hand)? If so, looking at the associated .lua file could provide insight into how an angled image placeholder should be described.

Need help on volume issue when adding a song from itunes

I am creating a podcast. I am hoping to create a guided meditation CD with speaking and background music. I used the male voice to record the speaking vocals and adjusted some small areas slightly for volume if I was too close to the microphone, etc. It is a twelve minute recording. I then added a music selection (for background) from my itunes by clicking on media browser, audio, and dragging the song into the track area. It automatically put it in Jingles. When I listened to the new recording, speaking vocals and music together, the background music had distinct variations in its sound, going louder and softer on its own, sporadically, jumping in random places. It doesn't do that if I listen to the music selection directly from itunes. So the volume increasing and decreasing only happens when it is brought into garageband. When I hit play on the final piece, the vocals sound exactly as they should but the music jumps around in volume randomly.
I have tried putting the music selection in as a new basic track instead of Jingles.
I have also tried starting with a new podcast, putting the music in first and then adding the completed vocals (I tried it in both male voice and female voice).
I have tried putting the music selection into a project by itself with no vocals and it sounds just fine... the volume problem happens when I add the speaking vocals to the project.
I have also tried dragging the music selection from a file on my computer instead of from itunes. None of these things have helped.
Somehow the vocals and the music together in garageband make the music sound wonky. Please help. Any advice would be helpful.
Thank you
Beau

Hi.
I have many wonderful Pages templates on my old Macbook Pro.
I would like to transfer those templates for use in Pages on my new Macbook Air.
How do I accomplish this?
Thank you friends!

Copy/Send a blank pages file in the template styles you wish to transfer. Open the documents in pages on your MBA, then select 'Save as Template' under File in pages.

Finding Page Template from Content Repository Views

Hi -
I'm trying to find a way to use the portal repository views to location the template a page is using. I can't seem to find it in any of the normal views. Anyone know of a good way find what template a page is associated with?
Thanks -

Problem with adding new music from itunes to iphone

Hello!
I cant drag and add music to my iphone 4 anymore how i did before. Can you help, please?

I'm having this problem too. When I try to set the options to 'manually manage' like I think I had it before, it asks if I want to erase all songs from phone and reselect. Is this really necessary? Am I missing something?

How do I get a track from iTunes to match the master tempo of my project?

I have a project open and I am adding a track from iTunes, but it does not line up with the tempo, making it impossible to play loops over it. Is there a way to make the tempo of the track match the master tempo of the project?

benfrommason wrote:
so is there a way to mix songs together that aren't the same tempo?
Yes. You have to decide which song is the "master" song that you match the other to. This song has to have the "follow tempo and pitch" option unchecked, the other song has it checked. Then you can use the tempo slider to match the songs to each other.
(I even did it with "Sympathy for the Devil" which has an irregular beat - it gets faster as the song progresses, the folks didn't record with a metronome back then. Using a tempo curve, I was able to match it to a modern, steady-beat song.)

ICloud Pages templates

How do I save stationary I created in iCloud Pages as templates? I also have many templates on my Mac I would like to save as templates in the cloud.

Getting your Pages templates from your Mac to your iPad via iCloud is not 100% straightforward, but it can be done - I succesfully did the following procedure using Mavericks & iOS7:
ON YOUR MAC
1) Create your template in Pages
2) Choose "File > Save As Template" and choose the "Save..." option (not "Add To Template Chooser")
3) Save the template to a memorable location (e.g. your desktop)
4) Open a new finder window, hold the alt/option key on your keyboard and choose "Go > Library"
5) Browse to ~/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~Pages/Documents
6) Open a second finder window and locate the template you saved in step 3
7) Drag the template into ~/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~Pages/Documents
ON YOUR IPAD
8) Open Pages
9) Tap Documents in the top left
10) Wait a few moments for the iCloud to sync
11) With any luck your template will appear (with a generic template icon)
12) Tap the template
13) A dialog will appear "Add to Template Chooser" - tap "Add"
14) Once this is done, you can remove the template from your iCloud documents to keep things tidy by tapping "Edit", then tapping on the template file, and finally tapping on the Bin / Trash icon.
Now when creating a new document on your iPad you will find your template at the bottom under "MY TEMPLATES"
If you were refering to iCloud pages beta in (at iCloud.com), unfortunately I am not aware of a way to save user templates to this platfom.

Adding Saved Searches task flow to a Page Template

I am trying to add the Spaces "Saved Searches" task flow to my custom page template. I have tried a few different approaches and none seem to be working.
First, I tried simply dragging and dropping the task flow from JDeveloper's Resource Palette into my template. JDeveloper created added the following to my template source code:
+<af:region value="#{bindings.allsavedsearches1.regionModel}" id="pt_r1"/>+
After uploading the changes to Spaces, there seemed to be no change to the rendered template.
Second, I tried to simply add the task flow to a page in my test space via composer. However, as soon as I click the "Add" button next to the Saved Searches task flow, the page goes blank (white screen of death) and the following message shows up in the spaces error logs:
javax.servlet.ServletException: com.sun.el.parser.ParseException: Encountered "\'" at line 1, column 65.
Finally, I looked at how the out of the box templates implement the saved searches functionality. It appears that the saved searches use a custom folder in the Default Navigation Model. I looked at the source in the Default Navigation Model and found the following node:
+<customFolder factoryClass="oracle.webcenter.search.view.rc.SearchServiceContextFactory" id="savedSearchesFolder" visible="true">+
+<attributes resourceBundle="oracle.webcenter.webcenterapp.resource.WebCenterResourceBundle">+
+<attribute attributeId="Description" isKey="true" resourceBundle="oracle.webcenter.webcenterapp.resource.WebCenterResourceBundle" value="NAV_APPLICATIONS_CUST_FOLDER_SEARCHES.DESCRIPTION"/>+
+<attribute attributeId="IconURI" value="/adf/webcenter/foldersavedsearches_qualifier.png"/>+
+<attribute attributeId="Title" isKey="true" resourceBundle="oracle.webcenter.webcenterapp.resource.WebCenterResourceBundle" value="NAV_APPLICATIONS_CUST_FOLDER_SEARCHES.TITLE"/>+
+<attribute attributeId="WEBCENTER_SERVICE_ID" value="oracle.webcenter.search"/>+
+</attributes>+
+</customFolder>+
I copied the entire node and put it in my navigation model. Upon rendering the template, I can see the new node in the navigation but when I click on it, nothing happens.
Can someone please tell me if I am on the right track with any of these three approaches? Or where to look to diagnose the issues I am running into?
Thanks,
Joe

UPDATE: I updated the "activation" property in the page def for the allsavedsearches task flow to be "deferred". Now I am getting an ADF popup menu with two menu items: "My Searches" and "Other Members" but clicking on the items does not trigger anything...
Any thoughts? What additional information would be helpful for analyzing this issue?
