Editing a document done in Word 2004. I can't remove lines done in Word. Using Mac Mini with 10.9.4

I am unable to a remove lines from a document originally done in 2004 using  Mac Word 2004 while running it on Pages. Using Mac Mini with OSX 10.9.4.
Tried to delete lines. Delete is not highlighted in Pages.

The version of Pages is the most useful extra information, it hardly matters what Mac you are using.
Menu > Pages > About Pages
The line could possibly be an underline or a paragraph border or a line which is a separate object underneath the rest of the text.
Probably it is a paragraph border.

  • Please help! We got a used Mac Mini and we don't have the former owner's password, so we can't install anything like flash player.  Does anyone know how to get around this?

    Please help! We got a used Mac Mini and we don't have the former owner's password, so we can't install anything like flash player.  Does anyone know how to get around this? I don't know how to wipe the hard drive, and the support online doesn't seem to work.

    As posted previously:
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    If installing Leopard the process is similar in some respects.  If you wish to begin anew then after selecting the target disk click on the Options button and select the Erase and Install option then click on the OK button.  To install over an existing system do the following:
    How to Perform an Archive and Install
    An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
    1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger, Leopard or Snow Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
    3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
    4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
    5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
    6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

  • My adobe/ PDF documents are password protected. How can I remove the password?

    @My adobe/ PDF documents are password protected. How can I remove the password?

    Hello,
    two answers I found in my library about removing or finding unknown password:
    Removing: "Not with any Adobe products, and other products are not discussed on these forums..."
    Open a file: "The only way to open a password protected file is to know the password (there's no way to get around that). Hopefully you know who created the PDF and can get the password from them."

  • Some Adobe PDF documents don't print from Adobe Reader; with other software it works correctly

    Dear community,
    I'm facing the problem that some Adobe PDF documents with lots of colors and lines (size less than 3 MB) don't print on our printers from Adobe Reader XI.
    The same files when opened with PDF XChange or PDF Architect are printed out without problems.
    How can I provide an Adobe Reader that is able to do so? Any recommendations about solving the issue are very appreciated.
    Best regards
    Christian

  • TS3899 When I'm reading my hotmail acct., the app will close randomly, going back to the main apps page.  Also my e-mail accounts will disappear at random.  I have to go to settings. go to each acct. re-click "done", I'm using a mini os 7.0.4

    E-mail whether hotmail or g-mail, will blank out as I click on links within the mail.  It goes back to the home screen.  more and more often, the mail folders just vanish, and I have to go to settings and re-click "done" on each acct., even though all are filled in properly.  started after I upgraded to 7.0.4

    You can try to copy the text to the clipboard (Ctrl + A and Ctrl +C) if you need to refresh.

  • Why can't I open folders (pictures) on my mac mini - it says I don't have access

    I can't open the Pictures or Music or any other folders that I have in Users on my hard drive

    Hey BDAqua,
    Thanks for that. Made me think. I used one of my other logins by accident. For some reason my Mac MIni will let me log in using one of two usernames. So that was an easy fix that I should have known. I appreiciate your suggestion.

  • Convert Word for Mac 3 documents

    Sorry for my borderline inquiry: I am sitting on some older documents written by WORD for Mac 3 (in the early nineties) that I need to open again for my work. MS Word 2004 doesn't, neither does Apple Works or even MacLinkPlus up from version 12.
    The MS site is not very helpful on this issue, but perhaps you guys can give me a hint on a suitable converter utility.
    Thanks a lot,
    W

    Gruß dich Wolfgang,
    An older version (AppleWorks 5, or ClarisWorks) has the appropriate MacLink translators for Word 3. If you don't have access to an older version (and if the file isn't huge or doesn't contain sensitive information), you can send it to me and I will see if I can resave it in a current format.

  • Use docs on my iPhone 5 when they were created on MacBook Air using Microsoft Word for Mac

    I'm looking for a FREE solution for my iPhone 5.  I want to be able to read/edit/save on my iPhone 5 the  docs I created on Microsoft Word for Mac on my MacBook Air (running Mountain Lion).
    I would like to be able to sync the edited/saved docs back to my MacBook Air and be able to open/edit/save them in Microsoft Word for Mac.  I really want to make sure that my edited docs don't become unusuable when put back on my MacBook Air.  Thanks!
    Can someone give me a solution?
