Double tap a word in Pages and see the dictionary explanation, has anyone succeeded?

Reading the How To page in Pages, it states that to find out the meaning og a word, Double tap it and then  tap Define but Define never appears, only Cut or Copy or sometimes Speak. Most annoying, the Ipad is for fun or Email on the road but as for using it s a laptop, a waste of money.

Thanks PJl and Demo, I will try the update, fingers crossed, but really I expect that when I download something that it will work, nieve perhaps.  Actually I m disapointed with Apple, my next purchase will be a PC or maybe 2 for the price of one Mac.

    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

  • Not able to successfully subscribe to and see the TargetApplicationChosen event fire from Windows Phone 8.1

    Matt,
    Thanks for the reply.
    In my current experience, I am not able to successfully subscribe to and see the TargetApplicationChosen event fire from Windows Phone 8.1.
    In Windows Store 8.1 (Tablet), it works fine.
    Questions
    Is this event expected to fire in Window Phone 8.1 (Universal Apps, Not Silverlight 8.1) ?
    Does this event depend on the target application to supply AppName?
    Thanks for your help. Much appreciated.
    Example Code Block
    //From Page Contstructor or OnNavigatedTo Handler
    _dataTransferManager = DataTransferManager.GetForCurrentView();
    _dataTransferManager.TargetApplicationChosen += DataTransferManagerOnTargetApplicationChosen;
    private void DataTransferManagerOnTargetApplicationChosen(DataTransferManager sender, TargetApplicationChosenEventArgs args)
    //fires in tablet but not phone

    This is not an answer, Mr. Wong.  The link you referenced refers to the DataTransferManager class being supported only in Native apps, which includes Windows Phone 8.1 RT apps.  All aspects of the DataTransferManager work except for the TargetApplicationChosen
    event under a WP8.1 universal app.  This event does NOT fire in the Windows Phone 8.1 RT API implementation of DataTransferManager.
    You need to reopen this thread and address the issue, please.  The lack of support for this event is problematic for some phone scenarios, most notably supporting NFC Tap and Share.

  • PDF email only sends the top page and not the others

    I have created a real estate brochure in  Pages. I have tried to email it as a PDF. When it arrives at its destination there is only one page and not the three which are in the brochure. Why is this? I sent this in Pages format I have all the surrounding editing paraphernalia. It does not look very professional

    Are you sure this is what is happening?
    Only the top page is shown in the eMail. Save the pdf or double click on it so it open in Preview or Acrobat Reader and you should see all the pages.
    If you want people to see multiple pages in the email, split the .pdf up into individual pages, then add them to the eMail.

  • Open an App and see the App instead of just the name in the menu bar?

    This may seem like a dumb question, but here goes anyway...
    Two applications in particular....Microsoft Office apps (word,excel,etc)
    and Pro Tools LE....
    How do I open these apps and see the opening page of the app, rather that
    just the name of the app in the menu bar and the desktop...?
    This happens automatically in Win XP or Vista....

    Only a very few Apps have the option/preference to do that in OSX, not sure if any MS APPs do or not.
    Maybe it would be closer to what you want though, to instead of opening the APP, drag say the Word® doc you want to the Word® icon in the Dock, which runs Word, opens the document, and skips the Open Dialog.

  • When I use the new Pages on my iPad, I can't open it on my new computer. It tells me that I must download the new Pages to see the Pages document, but when I try to download the new pages to my computer it tells me all apps are up to date.

    When I use the new Pages app. On my IPod  to type documents, I can't open them on my new computer. It sends me a message that I have to download a newer version of pages to see the Pages document. When I try to do that it tells me all my apps are up to date and will not allow me to upgrade the pages on my iMac.
    Any suggestions?

  • Issue in Customizing the Logon Page and Replacing the Logon Panel Image

    I have facing problem in Customizing the Logon Page and Replacing the Logon Panel Image in Hyperion Workspace 11.1.2.1. I have tried multiple time.
    First Replacing the Logon Panel Image. I have following the steps given in admin guide of EPM workspace on page 25 and they are as follow
    To replace the image that is displayed on the logon panel:
    1 Create an image file named logon_panel.gif with dimensions that match previous image.
    2 Rename the installed version of logon_panel.gif to logon_panel.gif.original in
    %EPM_ORACLE_HOME% /common/epmstatic/bpmui/themes/<do for each
    theme>/images_global. Move the logon_panel.gif file that you created in step 1 to this
    directory.
    3 Clear your browser cache.
    Note: You do not need to restart the Hyperion Foundation Services - Manager Server.
    But still I am getting the same default image on log in page.
    The other problem I am facing is Customizing the Logon Page.
    I am following the steps given in admin guide of EPM workspace on page 17 and they are as follow:
    To customize the logon page:
    1 Follow instructions in the topic Extract a file in the Workspace Web Application.
    2 Backup file <temp directory>/war/WEB-INF/lib/bpmui.jar.
    3 Extract the contents of <temp directory>/war/WEB-INF/lib/bpmui.jar to <temp
    directory>/bpmui_jar/.. (*)
    4 Backup file <temp directory>/bpmui_jar/WEB-INF/classes/com/hyperion/bpm/
    Resources_en.properties.
    5 Edit file <temp directory>/bpmui_jar/WEB-INF/classes/com/hyperion/bpm/
    Resources_en.properties.
    6 Search for the property bpm.logonCopyright.
    Customizing the Logon Page 17
    7 Modify the text to the right of the equal sign. Use \n to get a new line.
    8 Save your changes.
    9 Repeat step step 1 through step step 8 for all the other Resources_xx.properties files for other
    locales.
    10 Jar the contents of <temp directory>/bpmui_jar/ to <temp directory>/war/WEBINF/
    lib/bpmui.jar.
    11 Continue with the topic, Re-package a file inside the Workspace Web Application.
    For the first part I am following
    Extract a file in the Workspace Web Application
    ä To extract files in Workspace Web Application:
    1 Stop the service for Hyperion Foundation Services - Managed Server.
    2 Backup file <EPM_ORACLE_HOME>/products/Foundation/workspace/
    InstallableApps/workspace.ear.
    16 Administration Tools and Tasks
    3 Using an unarchiving utility, extract the contents of <EPM_ORACLE_HOME>/products/
    Foundation/workspace/InstallableApps/workspace.ear into a <temp
    directory>.
    4 Create <temp directory>/war.
    5 Extract the contents of <temp directory>/workspace.war into <temp directory>/
    war.
    6 Update the file you are patching under <temp directory>/war. as direct in it.
    But I am not able to find file bpmui.jar in step 3 of above one (*). I have marked for your connivance.
    I am able to see these file in that directory
    dynamichelp.jar
    workspace.jar.
    Can anyone provide help on this. Platform I am using is LINUX

  • Error in sharepoint 2010 designer while saving:"Content in the embedded form may be changed by the the server to remove unsafe content.Do you want to reload your page to see the results of the save? "

    Hi, 
    I am doing development  in sharepoint 2010 and facing this very weird problem.
    If I create a site page with the sharepoint look and feel for that site and try to save the site page,i am getting this error:**"Content in the embedded form may be changed by the the server to remove unsafe content.Do you want to reload your page to see
    the results of the save? "** and when i say reload,the server removes some parts of my page, e.g onclick event of html,asp buttons.
    This error just comes for any sharepoint site page,e.g i took a copy of 'How To Read Library' page just edited the text part of taht page,and when i try to save this error again comes up.
    However,if i create a simple aspx page with only htmltags like head body,then thr is no problem ,everything works great. But sharepoint look and feel pages are giving troubles while saving.
    has anybody seen this earlier,what could be the reason for this?
    Thanks

    I think the excerpt and link below is the why, but the page talks about server code and not javascript.  I guessing that this is why blank pages work, but not wiki pages.  Can anyone verify this?
    The following are general rules for using server-side code on a site page.
    If the page is uncustomized, server-side code is supported on the page.
    If the page is customized, server-side code does not run, and the page does not render. This includes the code-behind for the page itself.

  • Did download OS X Mountain Lion and see the features in my applications, but not reflecting in my APPS purchases.

    did download OS X Mountain Lion and see the features in my applications, but not reflecting in my APPS purchases.
    also this takes huge amount of time, almost 10 hours to download, even using 3G Net connection.

    Hi kiwirudy,
    I've had the same problem more than once since I started trying to download my 14 April purchase of OS X Mountain Lion.
    I found a property list called manifest.plist in my ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder which had a Boolean property called failed checked. I unchecked it and afterwards I was able to resume my download.
    Here are some steps I've found useful:
    Close the Mac App Store.
    make a copy of the  ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder. For some strange reason the Mac App Store likes to just delete it in some circumstances, which will mean that one has to start one's download again from the very beginning.
    Double click on the manifest.plist in one's ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder.
    This should open it in Property List Editor.
    Expand all the nodes (holding down the alt key and clicking on the highest collapsed node should do it.
    Find a key called failed of type Boolean and uncheck it.
    Save the manifest.plist and close it.
    Open the Mac App Store.
    The red message "an error has occured" should now be gone and one should be able to resume one's download.
    In the event that the ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder gets deleted:
    start the download again (it will start from the beginning), pause it and close the Mac App Store.
    copy your backup copy of the pkg file back to its sub-folder (it's a numbered folder in the ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder).
    Open the Mac App Store and resume your download.
    It should continue from where it left off.
    This has worked for me so far. I'm holding my breath. Don't know if I'll still be alive when it's finished.
    Regards
    Nic

  • I used up all of my pages and then my games disappeared? anyone help?

    I used up all of my pages and then my games disappeared? anyone help?

    As already mentioned in your other post, you'll have to create folders and group the apps, then your other apps will be visible again.
    To create folders, tap on one app until it starts to shake, then move it over another app and let go. After that you can move the apps into that folder by dragging them into it.

  • How can I print just a part of the page and not the full page with Adobe Reader v 10.1.2?

    how can I print just a part of the page and not the full page with Adobe Reader v 10.1.2? I need to print a engineering print with lot of information but information is too small in letter size and I don't have a plotter.

    Two ways to print a portion of a page: zooming or using the Snapshot Tool.
    ZOOMING:
    Zoom into the area you want to print.
    Click the Print icon.
    Under "Pages to Print", make sure "Current view" is selected under "More options" (you may need to click "More options" to open it).
    If you aren't satisfied with the preview, try clicking "Fit" under the Size button.
    SNAPSHOT
    Choose Edit > Take A Snapshot.
    Drag a rectangle around the area you want to print. 
    Click the Print icon.
    Under "Pages to Print", make sure that "Selected Graphic" is selected under "More options".
    To enlarge the snapshot to fit the sheet of paper, choose "Fit" under the Size button.
    Hope this helps!
