Author starts up with 400% page scale.

After a crash of iBooks Author, it now opens up in magnified 400% view. ??
No matter what I set the Preferences to, everything is huge.
Jump to a new section and it's big again.
Save it at the right size, and the next open has it back big.
Is there anything short of a complete re-install that can fix this? I don't want to lose custom styles, etc.

Thanks for the attempt, but throwing out iBooksAuthor and reloading it afresh did nothing to resolve the issue.
It still starts up at 400% and as I move from one chapter to the next, the new one shows up at 400%.
Somehow the data of how to scale the page on the computer monitor is imbedded in the actual book file and it ignores setting Preferences to a smaller scale.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]

    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).

  • Authoring documentation (200 - 400 pages)

    Hello all,
    Just a little background, I am an experience technical writer who has used primarily Word (for shorter documentation) and FrameMaker (for larger documents).
    Now, I am in a position to choose a publishing tool.
    I currently own:
    Word 2013 (happy to continue to use this for shorter quick/dirty documentation)
    Creative Cloud
    My choices for documentation (for various reasons) are currently [cost is not a number one concern]:
    FrameMaker (for familiarity reasons)
    MadCap Flare
    Sphinx (I was asked to look into this tool but reStructuredtext doesn't appeal to me and even offer the formatting flexibility I require)
    Requirements:
    Must enable OS agnostic collaboration (usually just markups and commenting)
      NOTE: My current solution is to output as PDF and save to Crocodoc personal (check them out!)
    Single source documentation that will output/accommodate (with little or no edits) to the following formats: XML/HTML5 (web publishing), PDF, and potentially CHM help format
    Better or similar content control as Word or Framemaker
    Must scale well for large documentation
    Corporate requirement: must play nice with git (gitorious.org) for source control
    Good community support (Adobe products win in this category)
    Questions:
    Are there any suitable tools, that meet all the above criteria, in the Adobe CC that I could leverage?
    If 1) is a negative, how well does FrameMaker compare against MadCap Flare?
    Are there any other tools I should consider?
    Thank you

    Hello John,
    I realize that I am almost talking about two different animals (re: documentation authoring vs help authoring) but it seems to me that some tools have successfully merged these two requirements. I am sure you are aware that it is becoming more common that  technical writers author content for digital media via PDF and web publishing (i.e. HTML or help formats).
    From what I see of MadCap Flare, it seems to successfully blend most of my requirements; they certainly make a compelling argument for switching from Adobe FrameMaker (and InDesign) to MadCap Flare. Please don't misunderstand, I have not made a decision yet. In fact, I would LOVE to be convinced that InDesign will do everything I require (or at least all the most important requirements). Ultimately, I wish to ensure that I make an informed decision before I turn away from Adobe products.
    >How important is single source authoring/multiple format output for you?
    Very important... but CHM or other help formats are not as important as:
    - Scalability (reliable content design - even with a 400 page count)
    - External content links (i.e. images for easy updating)
    - Links with relative paths (for portability)
    - Very flexible layout design
    - Flexible indexing, TOC, Footnotes
    - Output PDF, XML, HTML5
    - git version control is still a nice to have
    I think those are my main requirements.
    I would love to see some samples of .indd examples but web searches have only turned up example templates.
    Thank you for your help.

  • Settings: how do i tell Firefox 4 to start up with a fresh page in stead of one from cache?

    When i start up firefox the system automatically starts up with the last page in cache in stead of downloading a new one from the site on my startpage.

    You can try to use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the cache if you exit Firefox.

  • Firefox start with two pages. One says welcome to Firefox etc. And the other is my homepage (google). I want to stop the first page. How can I do this??

    Firofx (5.0) starts with two pages. One is the welcome to Firofox and also that there are Add-ons available. The other one is my homepage (google). I want to stop the first page. How can I do this?

  • I started with 100 pages in my photo book. Then reduced the number to 75 for finished project. When i click on "buy" it says I have some frames with no photos. But I've checked entire book

    I started a book with 100 pages, but reduced it to 75 by deleting some pages. When i completed the book & tried to buy it a box pops up saying I have some frames that need photos. I've checked the book over & over & cannot find any pages like that. How can I order my completed book?

    Look for pages that use photos for the background, even if you have other photos on the page. It'll look something like this in the layout pane:
    It would look like this in the PDF version:
    If you have a 1 photo per page, full page, you could have that option selected and not know it unless you looked at the layout pane like this example:

  • Starting Over with Authorizing Computers

    I have had several computers (through work and personal) over the years and made the mistake of not deauthorizing the itunes accounts upon returning the computers.
    I just bought a new 24" iMac which I love, but I cant play any of my authorized music because it says I have authorized 5 computers with this account.
    But, then I go to my itunes account and it says 0 computers are authorized to play music on my account???
    What gives? Is there a way to just start over and deauthorize everything? Any help would be appreciated.

  • Worst update ever! On my Vista everything is wrong! Back button never active; If I want open pages as new tab it opens new window; FF starts with blank page instead of Google; No url address shown on status bar when I move mouse arrow on the link etc

    Worst update ever! On my Vista everything is wrong! Back button never active; If I want open pages as new tab it opens new window; FF starts with blank page instead of Google; No url address shown on status bar when I move mouse arrow on the link etc.. Please Help!

    Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    '''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • How can I start firefox with new tab instead of blank page?

    Today I update firefox to 13.0. I like the new "new type". I want to konw how can I start firefox with new tab instead of blank page?
    I don't want to change the homepage to about:newtab.
    Sorry for my bad English.

    This is a very annoying thing. Every update from Firefox resets this config setting back to about:newtab. I changed '''''browser.newtab.url''''' in 12.x to '''''about:blank''''' and it resetted back in update 13.0 and now I have to do the same thing again in 13.0.1.
    The drawback with about:newtab is Firefox opens up dataports for every URL that are linked and gets reopened for every lame 'newtab' you click on. Just use [http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897437.aspx Tcpview - data port viewer] and watch how many extra dataports that opens up from this crazy 'feature'.

  • How do I prevent an extension/plugin update tab to automatically and recurringly start up with my home page?

    I am using Firefox 4 in Windows 7 Professional. Every time, I start up Firefox 4, a tab of any recently updated extensions/plugins will automatically start up with my home page. I tried resetting my home page and uninstalling and reinstalling the extensions/plugins; but, to no avail. Each time this happens the only way I could resolve this problem was to remove the extension/plugins. I am afraid if this issue continues, I will have no extensions/plugins left in my browser; unless, you can help me find a better solution.

    It could be that you somehow have both pages set to be your home page or you got firefox set to remember your tabs from last time. Check your home page settings with the instructions in [[How to set the home page]].

  • I just purchased an ibook for my mac for the first time and it started with two pages then switched to one with notes and i can't change it back. Anyone else having this problem?

    I just purchased an ibook for my mac for the first time and it started with two pages then switched to one with notes and i can't change it back. Anyone else having this problem?

    Up the top where the three buttons are (red yellow green) are three images. Click on the third image that looks like a notepad (not the first which is a library book), and that should get rid of 'Notes'. To read using two pages make the window bigger.
