Can I turn off annoying 'updating document' messages in Pages?

I've just replaced my original iPad with an iPad Air and have a problem with Pages on the new machine. Every minute or two, a message pops up telling me the document has been updated and moved to a folder where it has always been (where documents are not in a folder, the message says they have been renamed with the name the doc has always had). You have to tap 'OK' whenever the message comes up so it is a real break in the flow of writing. Moreover, sometimes the 'update' loses the last line or two you've written, or jumps to the top of the document - a bit irritating and disruptive when working on a 200-page novel manuscript. Can I switch these messages off? Or is there anything else I can do to get rid of them?

Update. It's getting ridiculous. At this rate I'm going to have to switch my iPad 1 back on and use that instead. I wrote an entire novel on that device, which got published by the way, with no problems at all. Pages is virtually unuseable thanks to these messages. I would appreciate a fix as a matter of urgency please.

  • How can I turn off upgrade/update to Yosemite?

    Having tried the Yosemite Beta, I've decided to stay with Mavericks for a while. How can I turn off the notification / blandishment / request asking me to  upgrade / update to Yosemite so I don't inadvertently wipe out the hours & hours of effort it's taken me to revert to Mavericks on my MacBook Pro?
    I'm not opposed to going to Yosemite, but I need to be able to afford to upgrade from 2Gb RAM in this old MacBook Pro before it will make any sense.

    In your Adobe Application Manager you have something like this:
    Remove the tick marks (I believe you guys call it check marks) against the product for which you don't need updates.  See the red boxed item.  Also make sure the right side has the two ticks as shown because that is always required.

  • Can't turn off auto update

    I want to turn off automatic update notification for flash.  I can get to the global notification setup page and uncheck the automatic update, but there doesn't appear to be any kind of save settings button or anything on that web page.  So all I do is close Internet explorer after unchecking the autoupdate box.  If I then reopen internet explorer and go back to the flash global notifications page, the check for updates box is checked.  How do I shut it off???
    Thanks,
    Bob

    Thanks, but the page you linked to, is the page I was using, and restarting
    the computer makes no difference.  I can uncheck auto update, but when I bring up the setting again, it is rechecked.
    Any other suggestions?  If it matters, I'm in windows xp sp3 single user, with admin rights on the account.
    Thanks,
    Bob

  • How can I turn off the pop up message that shows up 3 times everytime I print

    Every time I print whether a new cartridge has been installed or not, I get three pop up windows telling me the black, then the tri-color and the black again have been installed successfully. i have to click thru each one to be able to print.  How can I turn this off.

    What printer are you using?
    What OS do you have?
    Does it give a program name when it pops up, or does it just give you that message and a couple of options to choose from?

  • Can you turn off folder compression in Messages on Mavericks?

    Hi. I'm using Messages (iChat) version 8.0 on Mavericks. Looks like Messages now compresses folders before sending to a local network buddy. This slows down Messages a LOT. Previous versions copied the folder without compression, and was very fast.
    Is there a way (perhaps using terminal commands) to turn off this new behaviour?
    Thanks.

    HI,
    I have seen Messages "zip" some files, particularly those contained in Folders when using some services compared to others. (i.e on Bonjour rather than others).
    I can't say that I have found a way around this.
    At the same time I can't say I had noticed any noticeable delay in sending the data one way or another.

  • HT201365 Can I turn off this update.  I can't see the new lighter colors.

    Can I uninstall this new update?  I cannot see the new lighter colors.

    Hi Hazel,
    From what I have read here it is not possible to downgrade - I wish it was!!!
    Some replies say that people should have researched what iOS7 would look like before upgrading but to be honest I just did not believe that it could be as bad as it turned out to be.
    I have sent feedback to Apple here and would encourage you to do the same - they need to know how difficult it is now the visual contrasts are so poor:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
    If you go to Settings -> General -> "Accessibility" it helps a little to do this:
    Larger type: ON
    Bold text: ON
    Increase Contrast: ON
    I found that the "Invert Colors" option did not help as it made many controls even more difficult to see!
    I have never had to use the Accessibility settings before - the design of iOS7 is a wonderful if unwelcome illustration of the Social Model of Disability in action!  Apple used to excel at accessible design.  The difference between iOS7 and all previous versions illustrates perfectly that bad design is disabling!

  • Can I turn off annoying document warnings pop-ups

    Now that I've upgraded to Pages 5 everytime I open a Pages 4 document I get warnings, either about fonts not recognized or that spotlight search information was removed. It's so annoying that I took the time to write this questrequest.

    no, not at all, but I've found threads for a lot of the other things where people are complaining and Apple isn't listening.

  • How can i turn off auto-update?

    This auto update feature is driving me crazy. i recently downloaded songs from my cds onto my computer. I then put these songs onto my ipod shuffle and they all played fine. i do not want to keep all these songs on my computer, so i deleted them. but when i plugged my ipod back into my computer, it automatically deleted those songs b/c they were no longer on my computer. does anyone know how to turn this feature off (in itunes 5)? thanks!

    Natty,
    You don't have to use the
    b Autofill
    feature with your
    i shuffle.
    See its FAQ :
    Autofill actually requires some action. You can manually click on Autofill each time you insert iPod shuffle, or you can use the "Keep this iPod in the source list" option to click Autofill any time and then connect iPod shuffle.
    This lets you manually select what songs you want to add to the
    i shuffle
    , but that does
    b not
    allow you to add songs that aren't on your computer.
    The
    i shuffle
    is the one member of the iPod family that doesn't give you the option to
    i Manually manage songs and playlists.
    For some more information, have a look at:

  • Can I turn off Application update on iPod Touch?

    I received an update reminder yesterday for 'Battery Magic Pro' and downloaded it onto my iPod Touch. It would not launch. It just returned me to the applications list screen. Others have had the same issue with the 4.1 update and posted the problem on the App Store. I deleted the application and then installed the older version from my iTunes library. However, the App Store icon on my iPod Touch still shows a '1' indicating that an application update is available. How can I get rid of that message? There seems to be no way to tell the iPhone software to ignore an update.
    Thanks in advance

    I was afraid of that! Thank you for confirming.

    However, you can delete them but leave them on the computer. I've done that with quite a few. That way, you can get them back easily.
