Having trouble with page numbering in Pages

I moved a document from Word to Pages. Now the page numbering is outside any text box, footer, table, etc., and cannot be accessed for editing. I cannot click on it. I tried fooling around with page number functions in Pages, and it merely adds a second set of page numbers. I revealed the formatting and background information to no avail. It is as if the page numbers do not exist, except that they are showing up on screen. Has anyone ever had this problem? How did you resolve it?

JT,
This is a long-standing conversion issue, where Word page numbers sometimes turn into un-editable graphic objects in Pages. To get rid of them, do the following:
Arrange > Make Background Objects Selectable
Format > Advanced > Make Background Objects Selectable
Command-Drag a selection box from the margin diagonally across the page number object to select it
Press Delete
That usually does it. If you have a multi-section document, you may have to do it more than once.

I am having trouble with the "numbers" app on my MacBook Air. I go to print my document and that works just fine. I cannot however return to the document after printing. What do I have to do?

RR,
Not to worry, you're not the first to expect Print to finish by returning you to the edit mode. The thing is that Printing is so hit and miss with this version of the app, you will probably want to stay in the Print window for more than one attempt.

Anyone else having trouble with Pages freezing on iPad 2?

In just the last few days, Page documents are freezing. After I create a document it won't let me name it, file it with others, I don't see the little blue line telling me the document is being saved etc. I haven't lost anything but the program is not acting in a normal way. I used Pages daily.

I, too, had long waiting times. Here's what worked for me.
As I went through some of my Pages and Numbers documents, I got warnings that there were sync discrepancies (differing versions in iCloud and on my iPads and laptop). So, I removed everything from iCloud Drive using my laptop (saved to local folder). I let my iPads sync so they removed all the iCloud-based documents. On the laptop I went through and forced everything to the latest file format (latest Pages and Numbers on Yosemite) by re-saving, then copied everything back into iCloud Drive. My iPads both updated within seconds and everything now syncs quickly.
Don't know if eliminating sync discrepancies is the solution, but it seems to have worked in my case. Hope it might help others.

Having trouble with page refresh after targeting a spry data set from external url

ok I have a link <a href="als.htm?row=10" (when you click
on Insurance Agent forms button) on my index page
http://www.nmprc.state.nm.us/index.htm
and I finally got it to open the als page (
http://www.nmprc.state.nm.us/als.htm)
with row10 open.......Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!
but.....
yep....with me there is always a but....
after the page loads from clicking on the button on index,
with row 10 active, it no longer loads correctly by itself.....I go
to the menu and refresh the page by loading the als.htm url fresh,
the page no longer loads right.
var dsAgents = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("als.xml",
"agents/agent/name",
{sortOnLoad:"name",sortOrderOnLoad:"ascending"});dsAgents.setColumnType("name",
"html");
var params = Spry.Utils.getLocationParamsAsObject();
//Set an observer so that when the data is loaded, we update
the current row to the url param value
dsAgents.addObserver({ onPostLoad: function(ds, type) {
dsAgents.setCurrentRow(params.row); }
});

ok, I changed the code to the below and the page functions as
expected but with 2 errors .......I have no idea how to fix them
the page is
http://www.nmprc.state.nm.us/als.htm
one error is about the code and one is about the menubar
var params = Spry.Utils.getLocationParamsAsObject();
//Set an observer so that when the data is loaded, we update
the current row to the url param value
var defaultRowNumber = 0;
var defaultObserver = {};
defaultObserver.onPostLoad = function(ds, type)
ds.disableNotifications();
ds.setCurrentRowNumber(defaultRowNumber);
ds.enableNotifications();
// This is a one-shot observer. Let this notification
complete
// before removing it from the data set's observer list.
setTimeout(function(){ ds.removeObserver(defaultObserver); },
0);
if (typeof params.row != "undefined")
defaultRowNumber = parseInt(params.row);
dsAgents.addObserver(defaultObserver);

Has anyone else been having trouble with Pages crashing?

Often when I open my MacbookPro from sleep, I get "PAGES QUIT UNEXPECTEDLY". I make a living as a writer, so I often work with many documents open at the same time. What should I do?

Have you updated Pages to 4.2 since you upgraded to Mountain Lion. Also, the iWork apps iin Mountain Lion seem very sensitve to permissions issues & it's a very good idea to use Disk Utility to repair permissions.

Is anyone having trouble with pages

My phone goes black when I am on the app. Please help me before I go back to my droid

I have been having trouble with inserting pages in a document in indesign

having trouble with inserting pages in a document in indesign

You're going to give us more information for us to help you.
What operating system? What version of InDesign? What happens when you insert a page (and how are you choosing to insert a page)? Does it happen with just one file, or does also happen on a clean new file?

Having trouble with my PHP code. Appers to get stuck on a white page.

HI all,
I have just began having trouble with my PHP code. Was working before and haven't made any changes to the code since last time it worked.
What happens is after the form is submitted it goes to a white page (no text just all white page) and in the address bar it has the path for my php page. what supposed to happen is either it goes to a success page or a error page.
I've had a problem where the info entered is correct but was directed to the error page. i managed to fix that issue but i am puzzled what is happening to my php page now.
Mind you that i didn't write this code i just took over the responsiblities of this website and i am hopping that its a quick fix.
I appreciate any help you could give me. Thank you.
CODE:
<?php
   $to = '[email protected]';
      $from = '[email protected]';
        //Make sure we have some info posted from the form...
        if (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS)){
            //Clear the body of the message to be sent
            $body = '';
            //go through all POSTed variables sent
            while (list($key, $value) = each($HTTP_POST_VARS)){
    if($key <> "Submit" && $key <> "submit") {
     $body .= $key . ' = ' . $value . "\r\n";
            //Now building mail headers.....
            $headers = "From: ".$from."\r\n";
            //Mail message
            $success = mail($to, "Email Club" . date("m/d/Y"), $body, $headers);
   // CURL stuff.....
   $ch = curl_init();
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FAILONERROR, 1);
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 4); //times out after 4s
   curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
             if ($success){
    //readfile('http://www.lvpaiutegolf.com/thankyou.html');
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,"http://www.lvpaiutegolf.com/thankyou.html");
    header("Location:http://www.lvpaiutegolf.com/thankyou.html");
            else{
             // readfile('http://www.lvpaiutegolf.com/error.html');
     curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,"http://www.lvpaiutegolf.com/error.html");
     header("Location:http://www.lvpaiutegolf.com/error.html");
   // Output
   //$result=curl_exec ($ch);
   //curl_close ($ch);
   //echo $result'";
?>

I am having trouble with a form, won't tab to 2nd page...

I am having trouble with a form I created in Acrobat Pro 10. I created tabs etc, they all work wonderfully in Adobe, but once I uploaded it onto the web-based program for other users, the tabs only work on page 1, I have to click on page 2 to keep tabbing through. It won't tab into it. Any advise? Also, when the users open it it opens in the web.

1. The library is separate from the application, so re-installing shouldn't cause an issue with the actual photos. But it would be foolhardy in the extreme to do anything without first backing up.
2. Often these issues are caused by a damaged Library, so reinstalling doesn't change much.
FWIW
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.
Alternative approach:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

I'm having trouble with my Pages app. Over half of my document are updating, and do not finish. I cannot get to the documents. This has been going for 2 weeks now, they do not update.

I'm having trouble with my Pages app. Over half of my document show that they are updating. I cannot open or delete the documents. Does anyone know a fix for this? Please help.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

Having trouble with Yahoo home page sign in. Some time it brings up my wife's Yahoo log in instead of my log in how can I fix this?

When I open Firefox it is suppose to take me to my Yahoo home page. But it opens up showing my wifes Yahoo sigh in page in stead of mine. Having trouble with Yahoo home page sign in. Some time it brings up my wife's Yahoo log in instead of my log in how can I fix this?

Did your wife tick the box on the Yahoo sign in page to remember her for two weeks?
It would be best two have two separate Firefox profile folders, one for each of you to prevent such problems.<br />
Then you also do not have problems with deleting or changing bookmarks.

Since installing the new OS i am having troubles with different appliction icons showing up on my main page twice (upper left corner), and not allowng me to select certain ones (app store specifically). Anyone else having this issue?

Help - anyone else out there having trouble with the new OS system on their ipad 2? I am not getting mutliple copies of several apps ont he main page. They are "collecting: in a pike int he upper left corner and the original application icon is no lobger working. I have tried a hard sync, and that didn't help.

It should only be able to have one copy of an app on the iPad. Have you tried a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
Do all the apps work ? In the past a few people have taken a screen shot of their iPad screen and that has then become their background picture - so some of the 'app's may actually be on your wallpaper picture and not actual apps. Have you tried changing the wallpaper to see if that makes any difference ?

Having trouble with custom web auth page on 4404

I am having trouble with a custom web auth page on my controller, we have edited the original file, but when we click login it goes to page cannot be displayed and it doesnt redirect to the page I want, however when I close the window and reopen it has already authenticated me.
Has anyone got a copy of some working html code I can use ?

There is sample Web Authentication bundle avaiable for download from cisco.com. if you go to the software download page and go to Wireless->Standalone Controllers->4404 you should see a link for Wireless Lan Web Authentication Bundle.
Its the same bundle whether you have a WiSM, 4404 or 2100
