Change text direction in Pages, Chinese style, characters run down the page.

How so I make it so text in text boxes runs in the traditional chinese style. Characters in text boxes should run down the page instead of across the page.

The only Apple app which can do this is TextEdit. Format > Make Layout Vertical
Other non-Apple apps where it may be possible are MS Word, OpenOffice, iText Pro

How do I disable Firefox Faster - where subsequent pages automatically load when scrolling down the page?

When I am on the website "PlentyofFish.com" and scroll down to the end of the page, the subsequent pages begin to load up and "stack up" which conceals the previous pages and contacts. This does not normally cause a problem with other websites, like news sites, where I can read from page to page without having to find the "page forward" button.

This should be in the same spot:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General mini-tab > ''uncheck the box for'' "Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page"

All downloads through Firefox are not opening correctly. Bookmarks open up a page with links flush left down the page that do not work. All file downloads do not open correctly with the same issue as bookmarks. Want to avoid losing all my bookmarks so don

Something happened in the last day with FF. IE downloads files correctly. FF Delicious bookmarks open up a page with blue links that look like an outline but they are not my links. My downloads do the same. No virus.

That can be caused by having some bookmarks with a long title in the main Bookmarks menu.
The width of a column in the Bookmarks menu list is in current Firefox versions automatically adjusted to fit the bookmark with the longest name.
You can check the names of the bookmarks and make the longer ones shorter.

My home page is MSN and whenever I scroll down the page, the "Bing Web Search" menu drops down and covers part of the page in Windows XP. How can I prevent this from happening?

''locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/811325''
This only happens on the home page. The drop down appears as soon as the "Bing Web Search" at the top of the page disappears as one scrolls down the page and remains visible until I scroll all the way back to the top of the home page.

Try to use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.

Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:

Changing text direction for Hebrew lines within a document.

We are new to Creative Cloud. We need to be able to chnage text direction within an In Design document. We looked up how to do it, and while the directions were clear (clicking on change character direction from the character options menu), our character options menu does not include changing text direction as one of the options. We just joined the creative cloud a few weeks ago and have the most updated version; what do we need to do?

Do you have the CC Desktop Appliction installed (It's sort of a command central for CC)? If not, get it at https://creative.adobe.com/
The icon should be near the top right corner.

How do I change the compatibility view so that my words are not running off the page?

I do data entry and in the system I am working on the words are running off the page. In internet explorer there is a little broken page on the tool bar that lets you change the compatibility and I am not finding anything like that with firefox. Please advise how I can change the setting so that the words will wrap correctly.

As far as I know, Firefox doesn't have a similar compatibility feature.
I assume this system is not accessible to forum volunteers, so I'm going to ask you to do a little sleuthing. I assume you are entering text in a multi-line textbox (an HTML <textarea> control). Could you do the following:
* Have your text entry form open in one tab, and a reply to this thread in another tab.
* Right-click in the control that doesn't wrap and choose Inspect Element. A small pane should open with part of the HTML highlighted in blue.
* Right-click the highlighted <textarea> tag and choose Copy Outer HTML.
* In your reply tab, paste the HTML, and remove the leading < character to avoid messing up your post. This will show any legacy settings on the tag that might be affecting how it wraps.
Here's an example using this very box:
textarea style="width: 567px; height: 616px;" rows="10" name="content" required="required" placeholder="Enter your reply here." cols="40" id="id_content"></textarea>
If it's not a textarea, then that would be useful to know as well.
* Back in your form, you may or may not have a pane to the right that shows various style rules. If not, click the Style button at the lower right to open it. Look for any rules with the '''white-space''' property (the properties normally appear in colored text). If you find one, right-click and choose Copy declaration line. Switch back to this tab and paste the rule.
With that information, hopefully we can find a workaround.

How can I make a intro page for my website, then after the intro has run make the page automatically change to my we site home screen

how can I make a intro page for my website, then after the intro has run make the page automatically change to my website's home screen

You can do this using a meta refresh but the problem is you have to add it to the html file for the page very time you publish changes.
A better way is to create a splash page and upload it to the server outside of the folder produced by iWeb. Example HERE.
The meta refresh is added to the head section of the html file...
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="32;url=http://www.domain.about.com/Page-Name.html">
The delay time in seconds is marked in blue and the URL to the redirect page is in red.

Print problem. trying to print a document in Preview, the start of the text prints half way down the page not at the top of the page?

Print problems. Printing out an email the text starts half way down the page. I tried taking a picture of the text I wanted to print, tried to print from Preview and have the same problem. If anyone has any ideas I would really apreciate it. Thanks Penny

One more thing to check: System Preferences/Print & Scan. Make sure your printer is set as Default.
I'm using OS X 10.8 and I don't see Page Setup anymore. If you have access to Page Setup, check to see if there are any adjustments to make there.

How do I add page numbers to my document without the page numbers automatically changing. I do not want the page numbers the software automatically places into my document.

How do I add page numbers to my document without the page numbers automatically changing? The title page is blank, I can type in 1 on the 1st typed page, but the #1 automatically goes into the next page and will not change.

Click at bottom of the first page:
Menu > Insert > Section break
Click somewhere in the 2nd page (not the header/footer)
Inspector > Layout > Section > Page Numbers > Start at 1 > Configuration > uncheck use previous headers and footers
Click into the header or footer of the second page:
Menu > Insert > Auto Page Numbers…
If there is anything in the header or footer on the first page that you don't want just select it and delete it.
If you really wanted to manual place page numbers on each page you will have to use a section break between each and every page. I can't imagine that would be useful.

TS1702 In pages, when I get to the end of a line, the text refuses to start again in the left, it continues on the right and goes down the page, anyone know a solution?

In pages, when I get to the end of a line, the text refuses to start again in the left, it continues on the right and goes down the page, anyone know a solution?

Does this occur in all of your Pages documents? Are you certain that you haven't formatted the type to run flush right? (Align right I mean - sorry old typographer lingo). Look at the ruler at the top and check the Align setting.
Have you tried quitting Pages completely and the restart the iPad?
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

You need to make the text box float left.

I just installed the new mountain lion software on my iMac. I was currently running Snow Leopard. My problem is with my mouse. Now when I scroll down the page it moves in the opposite direction. I checked system S.P. - Natural for scroll feature.

I just installed the new mountain lion software on my iMac. I was currently running Snow Leopard. My problem is with my mouse. Now when I scroll down the page it moves in the opposite direction. In system preferences I tried checking and unchecking Natural for scroll feature. Movement from side to side works fine. Has anyone experienced this problem?

I think this new scrolling behaviour was introduced with Lion. You do get used to it pretty quickly (well I did). Are you sure that deselecting Natural Scrolling in Mouse Prefs doesn't re-instate the previous behaviour, it does here.

JUmbled text in Safari, and it runs off the page and behind images

i have a really annoying problem that is only happening in Safari under every user on my computer.
I have been to the Apple store and they have tried to fix it, but it perplexed everyone there I guess,
either that or the fact that it was 8:30 and they close at 9... go figure. Anyways- When in Safari on
certain websites that are heavier on text the words displayed in the headlines or body copy overlap, become jumbled, and run off the page.
As I am typing this it is not letting my words wrap to the next line in the text box, I have to hit enter
everytime I want to go to a new line. This problem is getting so annoying, and I am on the brink of
switching to Firefox but I love Safari so much more. Can someone please help? I have already look
at the " never display fonts larger than____ option" I am hopelessly in need of some advice. Thanks
in advance for your time and patience. Have a great day!
Bill

Text is broken when scanning UP the page; but good scanning down the page; why?

Text is broken when scanning UP the page; but okay scanning down the page. The text looks like a shot gun has been fired through it. It used to be good both ways until the last update. This is not a problem in any other program including Internet Explorer. I have an image to show you but there is no link here to attach.
After clicking Allow I got ..........The add-on could not be downloaded because of a fault at the support site.

Try to create a new Boolean pref on the about:config page via the right-click context menu with the name layout.paint_rects_separately and set the value to true and leave hardware acceleration enabled.
See comment 414 in bug 812695:

If that didn't help then try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox (you need to close and restart Firefox).
