After page resize, the TOC is all messed up
I have run into another formatting problem with my text, which is to be published as a 6x9" book. My original Pages document is A4 size, which is what we use here in Europe. Alas, that is not only not the same size, but not the same page proportions as a US document - or a 6x9" book. So while Create Space has an online app to shrink the A4 pdf version of the text so it will fit the page size, that does leave the text a bit small. Original was 12p Palatino. I would rather it stay 12p but to do that, I think I need to go back to Pages and change the size, margins (gutter, etc) of the original, then make a pdf version to send to Create Space.
I am sort of winging it as my knowledge of Pages is almost nonexistent and unfortunately that's how I created the original. One problem I have found after resizing is that now the TOC is weird - the page numbers are squashed against the name instead of being on the end of the line. Screenshot of an example is here:
<https://www.dropbox.com/s/vsolnazogx9k418/PagesScreenSnap.png>
I don't remember how I created the original TOC and don't know how to fix that. I know that what used to fit on one page will now overflow to two but that isn't a problem, and I can remove the occasional empty page. Don't know if there will be other problems. I changed the paper size in the Inspector/Document. Not sure if that is the correct place as there seems to be somewhere else to enter gutter etc. measurements.
I ams till undecided whether to mess with this or leave it as is and go with the smaller text, but I'd like to try, to see how it looks.
Thanks for any suggestions
Contini,
Maybe a reading of p. 64 of the Pages User Guide will refresh your memory of how you did the TOC. As far as I know, your course would be to delete the incorrect TOC and insert a new one.

Is Acrobat Pro right for us. We have an Employee Handbook that needs editing. Some is current pdf, some from an older version. Want to get all into one handbook, have the table of contents automatically adjust and link to specific pages from the ToC.
You can download the trial version (http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html) to convert the PDF back to WORD if you do not have the original. The conversion may not be perfect, but it is typically better than starting from scratch. You may be lucky and get a good result. You might check the settings (in the save screen) to try retain format versus retain text flow. The format version can be a pain to edit since it creates a bunch of text boxes. The flow version may require you to reformat in WORD, but you likely would want to do that anyway.

I'm on plan mode In Adobe muse, I have my paster page at the bottom and all subsequent pages at the top. I've changed my page dimensions in the master page by altering the height, however, these changes have not been made in the subsequent pages up top. How come?
Several possible reasons:
1) Is the master page applied to the pages?
2) Did you increase or decrease the height of the master? The size of actual pages is the maximum of the size of the applied master page and the size that's required to contain the content that's been laid out on the page.
3) Has the minimum height of the non-master pages ever been set? If so, it overrides the master page value. To get the normal page to again honor the minimum height set in the master page go to the individual page in the Plan view and use the context menu to select "Reset Page Properties". This will revert all the page properties to match those of the applied master. -
I am looking to add a button to reset the TOC (collapse all books)
Our end users are getting lost in the open books - yes, I realize it's a whole different problem, but I have been asked to add a button to "reset" the TOC books to collapse all the books.
We are using RH 10 and IE 8
I've looked all over for existing javascript that would do that, but I can't find it. Is that something that someone else has done already? I am not a scripting person.
Thanks!
LauraSo, I have tried a few different things in the action tab
the actual web address (it's an intranet site ...website_name/index.htm
And just index.htm here (where it says News_Feed.htm)
This is a parent/child project -- the newsfeed page is the only page in the parent (and it is the default page) -- the button in the top toolbar takes you to the newsfeed, but we wanted it to refresh the entire page.
Thanks! -
Refreshed to Firefox 36.0 and got all my info back EXCEPT that when I try to go to Yahoo, it does not recognize me, my computer or my accounts. Along with that the formatting is all screwed up, everything appears in stringlike fashion.
Anybody know how to fix or get Firefox 35 back?Do you mean you used the Refresh features that flushes out your old settings (and creates the Old Firefox Data folder on your desktop), or you updated from Firefox 35.0.1 to Firefox 36.0?
Have you noticed any certificate errors on websites? Sometimes if you have created an exception to get around a certificate error you get partial loading because the site uses multiple different secure servers and there's no user interface for making exceptions for the other servers. Anyway, exceptions shouldn't be needed for well-run sites.
This is general advice, but just in case:
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove your yahoo.com cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the site in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
Any difference? -
I have paid for an iPad magazine subscription, but I can not see all the pages of the first issue I just got. All I'm getting is the free preview. I contacted the magazine publisher, IPC, who said to contact Itunes, where I do not see an answer.
You can contact iTunes Store Support here.
https://getsupport.apple.com/Issues.action
Click on Purchases, billing and redemption to get started. Are you sure that you actually downloaded the magazine? I have a subscription to one magazine and I choose to download the magazines on my own rather than automatically. -
On getting into Monzilla since the update, I no longer get the home page I had. In fact the page is blank except for headerbar. When I clock on the Home button all I get is message 'URL is not valid' This means I cannot leave a website without logging out of my Firefox account.
-> [[How to set the home page#w_restore-the-default-home-page|Restore the default home page]]
-> Now, [[How to set the home page#w_set-a-single-web-site-as-your-home-page|Set a single web site as your home page]]
Check and tell if its working. -
I have deleted Firefox from my computer and then downloaded it fresh but it makes no difference. i am not getting the Firefox main page when I open the browser. Makes no sense to me. This is a brand new HP computer about 1 week old
Do you get the menu bar if you press the Alt key or press the F10 key?

IT'S A MESS!Can you attach a screenshot?<br />
You can't do that to the first post, but you can to follow up replies.
*http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot
Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (1 MB).
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

I don't know how to fix this, I was watching it once, then about halfway through my show stopped. so I closed out, and then it said it wasn't downloaded, I re-downloaded it, and now the picture just comes up all scrambled and I dont know how to fix it.

I go to print and try to select the radio button to print all frames, but It's not working
The '''Print Frames''' options are greyed out unless the web page is made with Frames. I-Frames don't work the same.
Check out this '''''frames test page''''' - http://www.draac.com/framestest.html <br />Is the '''Print Frames''' part of the print dialog box active?
As far as printing a page as you see it, many web pages use '''print.css''' files for print-media. The print.css specifies exactly what is to be sent to the printer and it can control the formatting of the printed page. -
