How come when I use "Space before" in a paragraph style, it will only put the space in if i have a blank line above it. Shouldn't it do this regardless?

Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems to me that if I have a style with a "space before" setting of, for example, 21p, i should be able to put text into a new text box and have that text with the style  applied pop down the page. It doesn't do this. I can make it work by just hitting "enter" and having a blank line in front of it, but in my mind this shouldn't be necessary. What am I doing wrong?

That's expected behavior. If the text spans columns or pages you wouldn't want a space above if a new column started with a paragraph at the top. Like this where you want the 2nd column to align with the others:

  • How come when I try to sync photos from iTunes to my iPhone, only half the photos show up?

    All of the photos are compatible (JPEG) for syncing, but only half of them are syncing onto my iPhone 4S.
    I'm using iPhoto 11 to manage my photos.
    Is there something wrong with the actual photos, iPhoto 11, or is it iTunes?

    Has your iPad been synced to a different computer?
    Do you have apps on your iPad that were purchased with a different iTunes account than the one you use on your computer?
    Have your ever successfully synced to your own computer before?

  • How come when I use a Internet that I have already used it doesn't automatically connect

    How come when I use an Internet that I have already used it doesn't automatically connect?

    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Does the iPod see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iPod connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    how come when i sync my iphone5 to laptop window 7 it will shut down , but when m using ipad it will not shut down, so it means th problem is my iphone5

    Hello vina8sy,
    After reviewing your post, it sounds like the iPhone will turn off after a sync but the iPad will not. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it - Apple Support
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a nice day,

  • How come some apps won't play sound on a USB device but only on the internal speaker while others can?

    How come some apps won't play sound on a USB device but only on the internal speaker while others can? Mac OS 10.8.5

    You can simply set your system preferences
    Sound preference
    output - to whatever your USB device/audio interface is
    Your question seems a bit vague to me though. So can you actually inform us of what it is you are trying to do and give us examples with named kit.

  • When I connect my digital camera to my iPad it will only download the stills, not the videos. How can I download the videos? I have the USB and HDMI connectors for the iPad.

    When I connect my Leica digital camera to my iPad it will only download the photos not the videos. How can I download the videos anyone please?

    If your camera has an SD memory card, use the camera connection kit & the SD card to download to the iPad. That's what I do.
    Another way that will work. Download the video(s) to your computer. Then you can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    First, Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie file into the folder. The movie file must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie file should appear & you can import.
     Cheers, Tom

  • How come when i use personas firefox does not open to homepage, i just get a blank page?

    when i use a persona firefox does not open 2 my home page, but rather to a blank page.

    Thanks for responding Chris.
    I hadn't restarted after disabling SearchMenu. Having restarted, it would appear that the problem was, in fact, SearchMenu. Which was my suspicion. Once Find highlights a "word" SearchMenu interrupts to offer its services. I guess I'll post on their board, to see if there's a solution.
    I should have restarted before posting. My apologies. Rookie move.
    Thanks again, Chris.

  • How come when I imessage other iphones sometimes it is blue while other times it is green even though I have disabled sms messages?

    I have disabled SMS messaging and use only imessage but how come it's blue when I message one iphone user and green when I message another?  I thought you could imessage between any iphone.

    It's possible one recipient has disabled iMessage and the other hasn't. 
    Also, it sometimes takes and initial SMS to shared the keys from each device to enable the secure iMessage channel.  Subsequent messages would then be iMessage enabled.

  • How come when i use skype on my ipad air, it keeps dropping out? My bluetooth is always turned off also

    So i have an ipad air and during the past month or so, the amount of dropouts when using skype has skyrocketed to at least 3 or more dropouts a day. It can't be my internet because whenever it disconnects i go to chrome to check if my internet is working. I've looked on a few websites and so far the only solution was to turn off the bluetooth. But the thing is, my bluetooth is always turned off.
    Is there something i can do about this?

    Hi geminigay,
    You state that your music plays at random times even if it isn't open. Also your earbuds are plugged in most of the time.
    Does this happen if the earbuds are not connected?
    Are your earbuds the ones with the remote and mic?.  If so, they can start the music playing even if the Music app is not running.
    Use an Apple headset - iPhone
    The Apple EarPods with Remote and Mic (iPhone 5 or later) and the Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic (iPhone 4s) feature a microphone, volume buttons, and the center button, which lets you answer and end calls or control audio and video playback, even when iPhone is locked.
    Use the center button to control music playback. 
    Pause a song or video:  Press the center button. Press again to resume playback.
    Note that applies to the iPad as well.
    See if the remote is being activated.
    Regards,
    Nubz

  • HT4864 How come when I use the automate iCloud setup, does the incoming mail server have a different address then specified by these instructions?

    The IMAP sever that automatically set up is p08-imap.mail.me.com?

    So I guess using Apple Token for authenication is OK, instead of the prescibed Name and Password per the http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864?
