Default style is driving me crazy

I want all of my WP documents to use a particular font in a particular style but even though I've followed the instructions in AppleWorks help, very carefully, about 10 times, on how to do this by editing the "default" style, and even though in the "Styles" window my changes show up correctly, the font I want refuses to appear in documents.
I've tried restarting the computer, everything, but I've just about han enough.
What am I doing wrong?
Help !

What am I doing wrong?
Your description sounds like you want an alternate default document template, but what you're doing changes only the "current" document.
See AppleWorks Help topic "Setting up default templates (Options documents) for specific document types" (just type "default options" into the AW Help search window -- it'll be the first article returned in the search).

  • My pages are suddenly in translate,when all the time it was in English,suddenly,I have to click translate to English,it is driving me crazy

    When I am on a tab,it asks me to translate to English,this has just started happening today,driving me crazy
    == Lunchtime today

    I am having the same issue!
    I've gone through the Tools Options and restored the Translate configuration back to the default (it was set to translate to Spanish). Once reset back to English and choosing Do Not Translate English, I saved and restarted Firefox.......but it reverted back to the Spanish translation option.
    I've repeated the process several times, but it's not working.
    It's really annoying. I know it doesn't affect browsing really, but it's still annoying.

  • Exclamation marks driving me crazy? 9-1-1

    I just purchased a refurbed 4gb Nano. All my music is either saved to "Desktop" or "MyMusic" and then individually transfer each album folder to itunes.
    Now I seem to get a lot of "exclamation" marks beside many songs??
    Anybody know why this is happening and how to correct this nuissance? It really is driving me crazy.
    On a side note Itunes was installed to default locations/settings. Thus in the preferences MyMusic/itunes/itunesmusic
    Where do all the files need to be stored?
    Thanks in advance.

    I can't give you a definitive answer but I had a problem relating to exclamation marks, where songs that were in my library had been either accidentally moved or deleted showed the symbol.
    From my experience, you should decide where you want your music files to be and stick to it. It may be that your computer is getting confused because you have two lots of files and that at one time, the library remembered you having songs that were in one location but have now been transferred to another.
    Make sure that in preferences, you have the Advanced/General tab settings ticked for Keep iTunes Music folder organised and for Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library.
    Import songs using iTunes directly (which is what it sounds like you've been doing) by dragging folders into it. Keep tabs on what folders you have and have not imported. You can check the folders in the iTunes Music folder to see if they are appearing properly but don't move them.
    I actually lost music because I had multiple sources which got the programme all confused when I tried to move my music location. If you want to change the location of your files, USE THE HELP! I learned to my cost that I did it the wrong way!
    I'm sorry if none of that helps. Good luck!

  • Hi, Mail is driving me crazy by grouping received messages together by subject. I want each message, irrespective of subject, to appear stand-alone on a line of my mailbox. My old Mail did this automatically. How do I get back to old ways! Thanks...Rick

    The new Mail is driving me crazy by grouping messages together according to subject. My old Mail, under OSX 10.5, listed each message independently in my Mailbox by date received. One line in my Mailbox for each message. How do I get this way of posting messages back again? Thanks.

    So nice of you be so responsive. Thank you. Unfortunately, something is just not right even though I pretty much always keep my Macs in good health. When I move that folder (~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail) and let it create a new one, Mail stops remembering ANY preferences. I can move and resize my windows and change my Prefs, but when I quit and relaunch Mail it goes back to some default state with none of my changes honored. Furthermore, when I search for the string "DisplayInThreadedMode" with BBEdit within that folder and all its subfolders, nothing is found.
    Maybe it has to do with how many things I disable on the recent OS X versions. I routinely disable Spotlight, Notification Center, Dashboard, Auto-Save & Versions, Gatekeeper, Automatic App Termination.... you know, all that stuff that I never asked for and don't need/want ;-)
    Maybe I could try re-enabling Auto-Save or something. Still, no other apps ever seem to behave strangely when I set all these "hidden preferences" to disable these unwanted OS features. Who knows, maybe the Mail team (programmers) just started assuming something was available which they didn't used to assume in 10.8.

  • My i tunes won't open. i keep getting error7 (windows error 193) . contacted microsoft(thought it was a windows thing...not) have uninstalled itunes and everything related to it ,re installed and message still comes up. Help please,driving me crazy.

    help. my iTunes wont open. I keep getting the message error7 (windows error 193). contacted Microsoft they said contact iTunes support. I have uninstalled all iTunes componets and then reinstalled everything but message still comes up... its driving me crazy.

    If it's a Windows error, it's typically going to be a Microsoft problem. Uninstall any security software you have and if you have a restore point for your PC, you may want to restore your PC back to when iTunes was working normally. If none of those work you would need to contact Microsoft and demand help.

  • How do I stop iTunes from automatically sorting by Album Artist?  Driving me crazy.

    How do I stop iTunes from automatically sorting by Album Artist?  Driving me crazy.
    I listen to primarily classical music
    All of my music was very deliberatley titled by composers "Last Name, First Name" as the artist.
    iTunes is changing it to the Album Artist.  I have to go in and delete that information - AND THEN IT LATER REVERTS IT BACK!!!
    Hours have been wasted and I am feeling so ticked.
    Any help?

    Purchased or ripped media?
    If these are ripped mp3s then another possibility is multiple embedded tags. iTunes works best with a single ID3v2.3 tag. Some software creates both an ID3v1.0 and IDv2.x tag. With multiple tags it is not certain which iTunes reads or which it updates, and any device may choose differently. Once songs have the correct info. in iTunes you can use Convert ID3 Tags... None several times, then Convert ID3 Tags... v2.3. The process removes any embedded art but otherwise preserves the data that iTunes knows. You could use my script CreateFolderArt before and after to save and then restore the artwork.
    In the long run you may be better off populating Album Artist properly with a copy of whatever is currently in Artist. My script CopyArtistToAlbumArtist can do this effectively.

  • I've added to ios6 to my new ipod touch with no problems. I'm trying to now restore the factory settings but the screen is frozen with an itunes sign and lead pointing towards it. The ipod won't even switch off. Can anyone help as it's driving me crazy

    I've added ios6 to my new ipod but tried then to restore the factory settings. It won't extract any settings and the itunes then tells me that the server cannot be reached or is unavailable. I've been trying all day. Now the ipod has a itunes sign and a computer lead pointing towards it on the screen and this is frozen. It won't switch off or do anything else. Any ideas as this is now driving me crazy.

    Try:

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Hello joelfromn. charleston,
    It seems you are unable to activate iMessage on a device with no carrier service. The following article provides information regarding activation issues:
    If you get an error when trying to activate iMessage or FaceTime - Apple Support
    Check your device settings
    Make sure that you’re connected to a cellular data or Wi-Fi network. If you're using an iPhone, you'll need SMS messaging to activate your phone number with iMessage and FaceTime. Depending on your carrier, you might be charged for this SMS.
    Go to Settings > General > Date & Time and make sure that your time zone is set up correctly.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

  • Default style for input

    I need a way to change the default style of a textfield. For
    example, if the textfield is required, I want the set the
    background color to yellow (FFFFCC) so that when the page
    containing that textfield loads the background color will already
    be yellow. Here is some sudo code that I thought would work but can
    get the spry css to over-ride:
    Default style:
    .textfieldDefaultState input, input.textfieldDefaultState {
    background-color: #FFFFCC;
    Textfield:
    <span id="sprytextfield1">
    <input type="text" name="text1" id="text1"
    class="textfieldDefaultState"/>
    <span class="textfieldRequiredMsg">A value is
    required.</span>
    </span>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    var sprytextfield1 = new
    Spry.Widget.ValidationTextField("sprytextfield1", 'none',
    {validateOn:['change']});
    //-->
    </script>

    Thanks for the response, but my problem is that I want the
    Spry CSS to override the default/initial CSS. In fact, I want the
    initial background color to be a designated color for my required
    field(s), for example yellow (which is currently the color used in
    conjunction with the onfocus event), when the page loads or is
    refreshed in addition to when the field is in focus. Currently the
    textfield samples have no default/initial CSS. When the required
    field is validated then the field should change. Currently the
    textfield samples use CSS to display the background color as red
    when the validation returns false and green when true.
    Thanks

  • How does one define a default style for a custom Flex component?

    How does one define a default style for a custom Flex component?
    hello
    I created a new set of Flex component library slib.swc (Flex 4.5). Would also like to have a default style. defaults.css file, making it the default style of the component library.
    Like flex the builder install directory of sdks \ 4.5.0 \ frameworks out \ libs directory has a spark.swc file, open with Winrar will see defaults.css this file. Defaults.css file defines the default style of the flex spark components.
    How can it be achieved?
    As follows
    slib.swc contains a CLabelEx components, and a defaults.css file
    defaults.css source file as follows:
    @ namespace s "library :/ / ns.adobe.com / flex / spark";
    @ namespace mx "library :/ / ns.adobe.com / flex / mx";
    @ namespace cn "http://os.slib.cn";
    cn | CLabelEx
            styBackgroundAlpha: 1;
            styBackgroundColor: # 569CC0;
            styBorderAlpha: 1;
            styBorderColor: # 569CC0;
            styBorderWeight: 1;
            styCornerRadius: 3;
    In slib.swc the application MyLabel.mxml of the source file as follows:
    <? xml version = "1.0" encoding = "utf-8"?>
    <s: Application, the xmlns: fx = "http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009
                               xmlns: s = "library :/ / ns.adobe.com / flex / spark"
                               xmlns: mx = "library :/ / ns.adobe.com / flex / mx"
                               xmlns: cn = "http://os.slib.cn
                               the minWidth = "955" The minHeight = "600">
            <fxeclarations>
            </ fxeclarations>
            <cn:CLabelEx x="67" y="112"/>
    </ s: Application>
    I hope CLabelEx default use cn | CLabelEx, style to display its appearance.
    I refer to above approach, but failed to achieve. Can you please re-Detailed
    Thanks!

    dj is right. Any Folder can be a picture folder.
    Create a root level folder and add it to your Pictures Library in Windows.  It will show up with all the scattered pictures from other programs. It can even be a different dirve if you like.  You  can even specify one to be the default save location for pictures in this dialog.
    Navigate to Pictures in your Libraries in Windows Explorer Right Click and select Properties.

  • How to make ROUNDED rectangle default style cp8?

    Hi,
    I want my smart shape style to be rounded rectangle, not squared. I have set up my object styles with color and all that good stuff, but there is no way I can see to make it the rounded shape instead of the squared off shape.  I also tried to change one on the properties panel thinking I could "apply to all" but that option is not available.  I am trying to use smart shapes as my captions in recording and it sure would be nice not to have to touch every single one and change it to rounded - defeats the purpose of styles, yes?
    Using CP8, latest version (I checked and there are no updates available), on a windows machine, 64 bit.
    Thanks!!!
    Kelly

    Rick, that option has effect on the captions inserted while creating a software simulation.
    @LMS_90 About which shapes as Text container are you talking? Object styles for Shapes do not include the 'form' of the shape. And at this moment, you cannot set such a form as being included in the default style, with the one exception that Rick points out: added text during a simulation capture.
    Even for Success/Failure/Hint shapes you cannot define that it always has to be a rounded rectangle. For Question slides, you can set them up in the master slides, and if you use always master slides with placeholders it is also possible. Quite a lot of the default themes have rounded rectangle shapes as text container for Title and Subtitle.
    Also in the Properties the 'form' is not part of the style: if you apply the default Shape Style that includes Stroke, Fill, Character properties, Margins, Shadow...but not the shape itself. That is the reason why 'Apply to all' cannot be used for the shape form.
    This is probably not the answer you expected, I try to change as much as possible in the Master slide.

  • Mail 2.1.3 on Tiger: mutiples of everything is driving me crazy!

    Hi, I recently had to reformat my hard drive and thus have been trying to reinstall all my email accounts (which I had backed up). I am using MAIL 2.1.3.
    I have several questions (this is driving me crazy!!):
    When I imported the archived files, it created new mailboxes but DID NOT reinstall my mail in it's corresponding email account file (i.e: i have an email account for incoming mail with "username", and then far below I have a mailbox (for EACH account, and I have about 7) which contains all my old mail. I can't seem to merge the two.
    When I recreated my useraccounts (most of which are gmail), I followed online instructions and created all my accounts using IMAP, since my first attempt using the POP version of these same accounts would NOT SEND OUT any of my Gmail mail. Now, for EACH ACCOUNT, not only do I have a "regular mailbox", I have the same "imported" from my old version, AND a third folder under "IMAP".... All this is REALLY driving me crazy!!
    All I want to achieve is what i had before : one version of each of my email accounts, including Gmail, that both recieve AND send mail. Nothing more.
    On the my other computer (leopard) Mail configures itself and everything works: it's bliss!!!
    Can anyone help me clear up this mess (also because as a result everything is SLOW!!)
    Infinite thanks,
    Nicaru

    Thanks BDAqua, Unfortunately I did not do a very good job explaining myself.
    I am not trying to sync two computers (Tiger/Leopard). The Leopard comment was just me venting that it was so much a better program than Tiger....
    No, what I want is simply to recreate my Mail Client the way it looked before: with one inbox per username, a single Sent/Draft/Outgoing mailbox and that's all!!
    Instead for each username I have "normal" Inboxes, PLUS imported folders (each with their own Inbox/Sent/Draft mailboxes) PLUS IMAP folders again with their own individual Inbox/Sent/Draft mailboxes). My homepage when I open Mail contains something like 21 folders, whereas I only want the 7 (one per username).
    This whole thing came about because when I tried to import my old mailboxes (pre-formatting my mac) they imported as separate folders whereas I wanted them to merge into their respective accounts.
    The other issue I had (originally) which led to this mess is that none of my Gmail accounts would SEND mail (receiving is Ok) so I followed the online IMAP instructions and this is where I got triplets....
    Gosh, I don't know how else to explain it... If it's still not clear perhaps I should just erase everything and start from scratch??
    Thanks again,
    Nicaru

  • Curve issues driving me crazy!!

    Ok, so I bought my BB Curve in January, and at first I loved it!
    A few days ago though it began going crazy.  Everytime I try to open something I get that annoying clock thing, and then once I finally get the program open, it stays.  This happens during phone calls (so it is rediculous trying to answer and end calls)  writing texts and email - anything.
    Then I added in the battery issue - my phone will die within 6 hours, even if I am not doing anything different.
    And now...the last few nights the screen has gone white with a weird meesage on it (something like APP ERROR I think...)
    I got a new SIM card, and that fixed it for about 6 hours. 
    This is driving me crazy!  i take my battery out so many times during the day it is almost not worth having a phone!
    Please please please help!

    I have the Curve 8130 - my carrier is ATT & for about the last mth it has been sluggish. The hourglass keeps popping up like something is running in the background. I have not loaded any new apps recently & it does starighten out after I pop the battery, but that's getting old pretty quick. Fortunately, I'm not having battery issues - but it is a nuisance to keep fighting with that **bleep** hourglass. Anybody else out there having the same issues or are we just the lucky ones???
    Looks like 2 different carriers here, so I don't think it's an ATT thing. Is Blackberry doing something or upgrading something that maybe we're not aware of? I never had an issue with my Curve before - but this last month has been really aggravating. I'm sure we can't be the only 2 people having these issues. Help!!!
