Help! CS4 overridden master page text keeps coming back...

I work in historic preservation at an architecture firm and I've created a template in indesign, using CS4, for reports that we have to write. There are a lot of master pages set up for different text layouts, plus there are about 10 different picture layout pages. On each page, where there will be text for the report I inserted filler text so that people use the right paragraph styles so that the table of contents will work correctly and to make sure everything is consistent. The document started out as single pages but then I switched it to facing because that's what was asked for. When I switched it, for some reason one of the pages in the middle of the document is set up as only a single page. I tried to move the pages around, but it won't fix the problem. So i tried to add a page after it, and that worked. However, it caused a new problem. I had already gone through and overriden the filler text that came through the master page and put the report in, but when i added the new page, it brought back all of the filler text as a new master underneath the report text. So I have to go through and override all of the filler text again and delete it. It did this to me one other time, and if people are using this template in the future, I don't want it to mess up for someone that isn't that comfortable with indesign in the first place. So I guess my question is if anyone knows why it keeps bringing back the overridden master text and also if there is an easier way to make that single page in the middle of a facing document into a facing page. Thanks for any input.

It brings back the master items because you are shifting from left to right pages, or vice versa, and ID must re-assert the master items when you do that. This is a known behavior (and one reason for not using placeholders that get overridden). If this is a template, must those items actually be on the master page, or can they be in the correct positions on the document pages?
Harbs is working on a plugin that will keep this from happening, but it isn't quite ready. He might be willing to let you test it though. He's at intools.com.

  • Photoshop CS4 program error: deleted prefs, keeps coming back instantly

    I am running Photoshop CS4 extended on my Mac OS X 10.5.6 OS. Out of no where, I create a new file, try to fill a layer with a solid color, I get the generic program error message. I click OK to get rid of it, but it is erratic. I have to force quit the program.
    I deleted the pref file manually as well as Apple + Option + Shift keys while loading the program and had Photoshop delete it for me.
    What other files do i need to delete/reset for this to work properly again?

  • How do I get rid of the 'buump.me' home page? It just keeps coming back.

    I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 OS and my firefox web browser is compromised with this 'buump.me' home page which I can't get rid of. I've been into the cache, deleted all my cookies, manually changed the home page and the backup home page in the preferences folder. Still keeps coming back. Where is this nasty bit of code lurking in my machine and how can I get rid of it?
    Thanks for any help

    Thanks ideato
    I tried this and lost all my bookmarks and stuff! But found them in a backup file.
    I've solved the problem by creating a new firefox profile and importing my settings and bookmarks from the old one (carefully, so as not to import the virus as well)
    Now the old profile has the virus and the new profile is just fine.
    I could just delete the old profile... but I'd love to find out exactly where this buump.me bug is lurking, so maybe I'll keep the old profile for a while and see if I can find half a day or night free for detective work.

  • I added a persona, I've disabled and removed that persona, it keeps coming back. Going into tools does not help, adding a new persona does not help. I'm ready to give up on firefox!

    I added a persona, wanted a new one so disabled and removed the old one. I added a new persona, but the old one keeps coming back. Going into tools/add ons does no good because it is not even listed anymore but keeps coming back. I've shut down/restarted, I've searched for answers to this problem.

    The data that specifies which persona to display is stored as a pref in the prefs.js file in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Did you try to rename or move the prefs.js file and a possible user.js file to see if that helps?
    Are you using the Personas Plus extension, because in that case you need to check the settings in that extension.
    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

  • Virus keep coming back even after I restored to factory...Help...

    Hi, my model is toshiba p755 s5320.
    I wrote a few months ago,when I got this Alureon virus, then I decided to restore to factory settings.
    I rarely use this laptop, I don't know why I keep getting it and it keeps coming back. I only go to very few sites that are safe. I don't get it.
    Im considering yet again --- restore to factory settings. What if the factory recovery is infected, could that happen???? Is there a way to get this factory restore in CD form?
    Solved!

    Seems to me if the hidden partition containing the image were infected, Monica, it would not restore properly. That would be one smart virus!
    It does modify the master boot record (on the first sector of the disk). But recovery discs replace that too. So far as I can discover it does not affect the BIOS, which is not replaced during recovery.
    You can obtain the recovery discs directly from Toshiba if you like.

  • Help! my imovie project library is full of temporary folders.. some are the ones i deleted.. i tried deleting the folders one by one but when i try to open the imovie, the folders keep coming back to my project library..

    help! my imovie project library is full of temporary folders.. some are the ones i deleted.. i tried deleting the folders one by one but when i try to open the imovie, the folders keep coming back to my project library..

    If it was working on 10/1, why not open up the most recent backup library with a timestamp of that day. Unless you specified otherwise, your backup folder is in Movies in your home folder. You can double-click one to open it in FCP.
    The update command actually wants a mounted drive selected.
    I suggest not going into the library bundles and moving or modifying folders/files except as a last resort. It sounds like both libraries are corrupted.

  • Java applet warning keeps coming back for signed applet

    I have an applet signed with certificate issued by a public CA cert verisign. This applet prints document to the printer. When it loads everything looks good and checks on the screen and the user is prompted to allow access to the printer. Even, though the user selects "Allways allow this applet to print" the warning keeps coming back everytime the applet attempts to access the printer.
    I notice other applets work correctly. I veriy the signed jar and it all looks correct every class file comes with smk marking.
    What is going, can someone please help???
    Manuel

    I appreciate the help. but i was able to resolve the problem. Our web page called the applet print method directly from scripting. Apparently that causes the java plugin to warn the user every time.
    To avoid this issue the new print method queues up a print job and a separate thread watches for the queue and picks up the job and prints it. In order to support the same original function, the new print method is syncronized and waits for the job to be queued before it returns.
    Now, there are no warnings even the first time you use the applet.

  • What happens for me? The same request keeps coming back.

    Hi
    I have this servlet with the processRequest that handles the doPost and doGet methods. A request comes in and I want to return a jsp page. Then I use this code:
    RequestDispatcher dispatcher =
    getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(address);
    dispatcher.forward(request, response);
    to try to get the webserver (Tomcat 4.0 running in debug mode i Forte) to return the jsp page. The address argument is "/mypage.jsp".
    The problem is that the request keeps coming back into the processRequest as a new request. The second time it comes in the URI is "/mypage.jsp/mypage.jsp".
    Can anybody help a litte with this?

    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

    Hi,
    I am trying to set up iCloud on my various devices. When I log in with my iTunes (Apple id) it keeps coming back and stating
    "Verify your account. This Apple ID's email address cannot be verified. Change your apple ids email address at appleid.apple.com to sig into i cloud"

    If your email address is valid, just go to https://appleid.apple.com/, click "Manage your account" to the right,sign in, click  Name, ID, and Email Addresses to the left, then click "Verify now" next to your email address.  Apple will send you an email to this address with a verification link.  Otherwise add an alternate email address that can be verified.
