Can no longer edit text in my table on pages

I just finished a mammoth report in Pages for which I used a table format for all the verbiage. I am now going back to edit some of the text in the table but when you click on the cell where the existing text is, it goes "white", and you can't edit what's there (because it's now invisible) and you can't add anything else. You click away elsewhere on the page and the previous text fortunately comes back, but it is still unedited :-(  Help!  Thanks

Doing an entire report in a table is such a bad idea and really unnecessary.
Sounds like you need to update both Pages and your user tag.
Are you actually on OSX 10.6.8 and what version of Pages are you using?

  • Can no longer edit events in Calendar on iPod 2ndG

    We have a MP, MBP, iPhone 4S and iPod 2nd G and to be able to sync Calendar and other programs on iCloud we installed Lion. We used to sync the iiPod to the MP but after switching to Lion shifted it to the MBP and she can no longer edit events on Calendar. Is this a setting problem or is it an issue with the IOS 4 on the iPod? Do we have to get an iPod that will accept IOS 5?

  • Can no longer select text in email template or read only field with mouse using IE or Firefox?

    Hi Guys,
    I can no longer select text in email template or read only field using my mouse in IE or Firefox anymore. We are using CRM 2011 rollup 18 applied with IE 11 and the latest version of Firefox. We only applied roll up 18 in Feb when this issue began.
    Thanks

    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.
    (You also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now")
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first) using either of these. While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
    These features rely on JavaScript, and it sounds as though you have scripting enabled if you get (the wrong) color changes. Some add-ons might alter the way scripts operate, so a standard diagnostic to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings) is to try Firefox's Safe Mode.
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [[Backing up your information]]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    Next, restart Firefox in Firefox's Safe Mode ([[Safe Mode]]) using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode."
    If those features work correctly, this points to one of your extensions or custom settings as the problem.
    To also disable plugins, you can use this page:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Plugins category
    Any change?

  • Is there a way for my daughter or her friends to block their numbers from showing up on activities page. At first i could see them, as of yesterday i can no longer see the numbers in the activities page. But i do see that she has texted them when looking

    Is there a way for my daughter or her friends to block their numbers from showing up on activities page. At first i could see them, as of yesterday i can no longer see the numbers in the activities page. But i do see that she has texted them when looking at her phone.

    First of all, there is no need to put the entire text of your post into the title of your thread.
    Next, does your daughter have an iPhone? Do her friends have iPhones? If the answer to both questions is "yes", then it is possible she is not texting them, but using iMessage to communicate with them. iMessages will not show up in the texting traffic on a line as they are not texts, but messages sent thru Apple's servers.
    For all "texts" to show up in the texting activity of an iPhone, you must disable iMessage on the device. Any messages sent as iMessages(blue bubbles around the text) on an iPhone will not show up in any texting activity.

  • Can No Longer Edit Song Meta Data In Latest iTunes 11.1???

    I just discovered that since the update to version 11.1 I can no longer manually edit the meta data by using the Show info function, all options are greyed out. For instance I can no longer adjust the volume level on a song nor can I edit the fields for song title and artist tec. There is also no longer any tab for album art when using the Show Info function on a song that has no album cover art. On songs that already have an album cover there will be an album art tab but the options there are all greyed out so I can not change the album cover art if I wanted too. This really *****, I can no longer edit album cover art for songs that have another cover already and I can not add any cover picture at all for songs that have no cover art (unless I manage to get the cover from the iTunes store but that is very often not successfull).
    Another bug I found is that I can no longer add any video file to my playlists.
    So this new update really ***** for me and have ruined my itunes experience.
    Do anyone else in here have the same problem?
    I really hope Apple will fix these bugs as soon as possible!

    I think I finally found a solution to this problem. It appears that for some reason, some songs you download will maintain write protection that the original owner had set on his/hers computer. In my case for this Ellie Goulding album that I had problem with, it turned out my friend who gave it to me had some of the songs stored on his iPad and that caused the files to become write protected it seems, and this write protection was transfered over to my PC. To solve this issue, everytime you encounter a song in iTunes that you can not edit just right click it and select Show/View In Explorer, that will take you to the storage location of the file in question. Now right click the song and select Properties and see if it is write protected, if it is then just uncheck that option and click ok. Now you should be able to edit the meta data for that song again. So it appears this is not a bug in iTunes but rather a write protection issue.

  • Ever since I enabled iMessage on my Mac Airbook, I can no longer receive text messages from the iMessage people on my iPhone, only on my iMessage now!!  How do I get the messages to reach both iMessage and iPhone??

    We are suffering very similar issues when communicating from my iphone to a friend who has both iphone and iPad enabled.
    As long as I reply to an existing text chain, then it is visible on the target iphone.  If I SMS the phone number, it gets routed to the IPAD!!   And NO, I should not have to disable imessage when I want to send an SMS!!

  • Can no longer edit song info

    I just blindly upgraded my iTunes to 11.2.2 (3) and find that I can no longer edit any information on songs. This is not acceptable. Not only can I not enter missing song writing credits, I can't even tell it to sort by a performer's last name instead of first. I tried going to the actual file location to see if I can change permissions, but it won't let me - it simply says I only have read permission. This is true even for files I ripped from my own LPs, or from CDs I own, not just iTunes Store purchases.
    Every time I upgrade I lose capability. I'm about to stop doing it. Anyone have a workaround?

    Something tells me that this is a new installation on a new Vista machine correct?
    I don't believe version before 7.1 will work on Vista. Its most likely a permission issue on Vista.

  • About a week before Thanksgiving, all my tiles were removed and replaced with tiles such as Bestbuy, Aliexpress, Macys ect. I can no longer edit these options.

When It has never done so. I have tried every setting and un-installed and re-installed Firefox, to no avail.

  • I can no longer edit from LR 5 in photoshop CC.

    I can no longer edit from LR 5 in photoshop CC.  When I right click on the DNG image in my filmstrip, choose edit in> Photoshop CC nothing happens.  If photoshop is closed, it will launch the program but does not open my image.  I haven't changed any settings that I know of.

    Any updates here? I have the same problem. Using OSX.
    It works all fine until I changed to the Adobe Creative Cloud thing for photographers.
    I installed LR5 even if it was already installed, but not via CC.
    After the installation the problem appears.
    Maybe I do the full deinstall, install process and see if this cures the problem.

  • I can no longer edit in "Get Info" since downloading iTunes 11.2.2.3. Please help.

    Since downloading 11.2.2.3 I can no longer edit info or add album artwork to any music I add to my library that hasn't been bought through iTuens. It will allow me to make changes on the "Get Info" section but when I hit OK nothing happens. Anybody got a solution?

    Check your settings under Edit > Preferences > Advanced. Is the correct media folder location shown, and is Keep... ticked?.iTunes only rearranges content inside the iTunes Media folder if the Keep... option is enabled, and it only offers to send to the recycle bin when deleting things located inside the media folder.

  • I can no longer edit song and album information in iTunes. I right click on the album, the window opens with "get info", "rating", etc., but none of it operates. What did I change to make it stop working?

    I can no longer edit album or song information in iTunes. I right-click on the album (or song), and the window opens with "get info", "rating", etc., but none of it operates. It won't get or save album art, anything. What have I changed to make it all stop working?

    You are describing an iTunes problem, not an iPod touch problem. Try posing in the iTunes forum.

  • ITunes 10.5 upgrade 32 bit can no longer edit album information

    Since upgrading to the latest version of itunes I can no longer edit any of the CD info. When I open the Get Info for an individual track or entire CD all fields with content are grayed. I'm in the Music view, not a Playlist and not the iPod list.
    I've checked the actual files and I have permision to ReadWrite.
    Any ideas?

    Try control clicking on the song and click 'Get Info'. Go to the tab that says 'Artwork', and the image file should be there in a little box. You can then copy it like normal. Just tried it (i have itunes 10) and it works:)

  • I can no longer edit information for streaming files in Get Info.

    I can no longer edit information for streaming files in Get Info.

    Similar problem here. My Ical refuses to edit or delete events. Viewing is possible, though sometimes the whole screen turns grey. Adding new events from mail is still possible. The task-pane completely disappeared. My local apple technic-centre messed about with disk utility for a bit and than told me to reinstall leopard. I could of course do that, but it seems to me that reinstalling Leopard just to fix iCal events is a bit invasive.
    I tried also tried removing everything, installing a new copy of iCal from the leopard-cd, software updates, all to no avail.
    At the moment I'm open to all suggestions that do not include a complete leopard reinstall.

  • Can no longer select text in Preview

    Hello there,
    A very annoying problem: I selected some text in a .pdf file that was opened with Preview and I marked it yellow, however once I saved it I could no longer select any more text, it is like the function has disapeared. I even tried restarting the computer, but I can no longer select text in that file. How odd?
    Funny enough, the phenomenon doesn't occur with all my .pfd files. I guess it is a bug, but quite annoying. Any one else having the same problem?

    Thanks for posting back though i'm sorry it didnt work.
    I believe there are also other dashboard plist files in that folder (i'm not currently at my Mac so can't say which exactly, though i believe one is called "client"). You could try trashing them (or dragging them to the desktop).
    Does the problem also happen if you log in to another account? Create a new account if necessary.
    /p
