Can't Delete First Page

Have a 400-page document in Pages and need to delete the blank page at the beginning, but it won't let me!  I have "show invisibles" displayed but nothing is on that page.  I have tried deleting it by viewing the thumbnails but that is wanting to delete the whole 1st "section" (23 pages) and that's not what I want!!
How can I delete page 1?
Thanks!

How about trying one of these ideas (on a COPY of the document, just in case):
Select everything in the section except for the first page.
Copy
Create a new blank section
Paste the copied stuff into the new section
After reviewing to see that everything looks as it should in the new section, delete the old section
or,
Go to the top of the second page
Insert section break
Hopefully the blank page is in a section by itself now.
Delete the blank section

  • I am trying to delete pages I have crated in numbers, but can only see them in print preview. Without print preview I do not see them. How can I delete these pages, but keep others before and after?

    Hi Crushed,
    Numbers doesn't have pages. It has a canvas that holds objects such as tables and charts.
    Drag the objects from the bottom of the canvas onto the white space above. That will reduce the number of "pages" (sheets of paper) that will print.

  • I can't delete a page in adobe professional anymore... what gives????

    I can't delete a page in adobe professional anymore... what gives????

    Hi Doctoromaka,
    Are you unable to delete pages from any PDF, or is the problem specific to one file? If it's just one file, is it possible that the document has permissions applied that would prevent you from modifying the file? (You would see "SECURED" in the title bar of the PDF if it's been secured.) (Also, make sure that the file is open in Acrobat Pro, not Adobe Reader--I always have the two open simultaneously, and sometimes don't realize which one I'm working in.)
    If the problem is widespread, what's changed on your system?
    Looking forward to hearing back from you.
    Best,
    Sara

    I can't delete bookmarks page in my bookmarks list on toolbars, maybe there is a little bugs. Thx.

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • How can I delete a page I've entered into a Dashboard Window

    How can I delete a page I've entered into a Dashboard Window?

    If by "page" you mean a Dashboard Widget, then it's simple:
    Open Dashboard (F4 on my keyboard) and in the lower left corner you'll see a cross in a circle. Clicking it enables add/delete mode and all possible adds show up at the bottom of the screen while all currently added Widgets stay where they are but get an X in a circle attached to them. Clicking on the X deletes the Widget.
    hope this helps

    How can you delete a Pages document from your Ipad but keep it on your MAC?

    You will need to keep them in folder on your hard drive somewhere other than in iTunes or they will be deleted from iTunes if you delete them from the device. I have a folder on my Mac called iPad Pages Documents - very original don't you think!
    Here is the support article that explains it all.

  • Can I delete unneeded pages in a photo book template?

    I finished my first book in IPhoto and found that I do not need all 20 pages for the softcover book that I want.  Does the print job by Apple only alow 20 pages? Can I delete the blank, empty pages?  Or, do I have to spread out the photos and text over all 20 pages?
    Thanks!

    There is a minimum of 20 pages so you can not delete past that

  • Delete first page and move the second and the third one to the end of the document

    Hello Guys,
    First of all thanks for anyone that dedicated some time reading my post.
    I have the following "quest" for almost 1000 pdf files with different pages within.
    a) Delete the first page (I managed with the batch processing)
    b) Move page 2 and 3 after the last page of that document
    Already searched already with the "batch processing" however i didn't find any useful option.
    In my opinion (please guys correct if i'm wrong), the only way that I can do it, is with  a javascript.
    I found one on the web, and modified a little bit and tried however it doesnt work:
    // Creazione file temp per copy delle pagine 2 e 3
    var tempDoc = app.newDoc("/C/copytemp.pdf");
    // Copy delle pagine 2 e 3
    tempDoc.insertPages({
              cPath: "/C/PDF Originali/*.pdf",
              nStart: 2,
              nEnd: 3
    // Copy le pagine 2 e 3 alla fine del documento:
    this.insertPages({
              nPage: 100,
              cPath: "/C/copytemp.pdf"
    // Cancella pagine 1 a 3
    this.deletePages({nStart: 1, nEnd: 3});
    Anyone would be so kind to share any solution external or non from to help me out with that quest? I would really appreciate it!
    Thanks !

    Gilad, thanks for the fast response, actually i don't know if i'm doing something wrong.
    Let me explain you my steps.
    1) Batch Processing
    2) New Sequence - Execute Javascript
    3) Past your script
    4) Run Command on: Ask when sequence....
    5) Select output location: Ask when sequence....
    But nothing happens. Would u be so kind to help with that?
    Thanks again!

  • I can't delete a page in Pages. In Thumbnail is grouping pages together and won't let me delete it from the group

    How can I "de-group" pages in Pages. I want to delete a blank page, and it refuses to let me.

    This answer applies to Pages 4/iWork '09 or earlier. I don't use Pages 5 often enough to understand how it handles pages in the sidebar in 5.2.
    Pages doesn't "see" a page as you & I do. Pages sees logical pages, separated by section breaks, rather than physical pages. You can see this by showing thumbnails, View > Show Page Thumbnails, & then clicking on a page thumbnail. The yellow border around groups of pages shows the logical page. You need to insert section breaks before & after the physical pages to separate them.

  • InDesign CS6 on Windows XP. Can't delete selected page?

    When i select a page to delete it fails to do so. Instead a random page is deleted. I tried deleting page content first and then deleting the page but the page remains and the content returns. I SAVED and CLOSED after deleting the content, WITHOUT deleting the page, and when i reopen the document and then try to delete the page it still does'nt delete and the content still returns??
    The same thing is happening with all my documents - originally created in CS2.
    Tried reinstalling - any other ideas anyone?
    Thanks.

    Does this page contain threaded text? When you delete a page with threaded text the text reflows to fill the remaining pages and will go into overset at the end of the story. If Smart Text Reflow is also enabled, it could be adding the page back again to hold the text.
