How do I add a second layer mask to turn more areas transparent?

I can't get this to work, and I haven't been able to find a post specifically for this question. I applied a layer mask to a photograph to take out part of the background, that is, make it transparent. I would like to add several more masks to make more areas transparent. But when I add a second mask, it hides the first one, and the first one hides it. If I turn off either level, and I can see the transparent portion for the other level, but when both layers are visible, all of the transparent sections are covered.
It seems to be there ought to be a simple way to do this. Perhaps it is possible to combine all the selected transparency layers into one mask?
Thanks for any help you can give.

Thanks, Scott! I'm not exactly sure how to use groups, but this is a good reason to figure it out.
I also figured out a kludgy way to do it. I make transparent the part of one layer that is blocking the transparency of the others. As long as I don't have a lot of layers do to that way, it works okay. It's a pain, though.
Thanks for the help!

Create a new AppleID (or use a different one if you are already doing so), then sign onto the iTunes Store that way and set up payment etc.
There's many other aspects to this question, including if you want this all to go to the same library, the same user account on the computer, etc.

I am using photos . I add a camera and make my photos slide in. How do I add a second behavior to the photo to make it slide out. I want the photo to hold on the screen for a few seconds in between sliding in and sliding out.

I am using photos in Motion 5. I add a camera and make my photo slide in. How do i add a second behavior to the photo to make it slide out? I want the photo to hold for a few seconds in between sliding in and sliding out. When I am trying to do this I am not getting the photo to hold, i am making one continuous motion which I do not want.
Thanks

Are you using the "motion path" behavior? If so just duplicate it and drag it down the timeline to where you want it to start. Trim it to end at the end of the project. The gap you leave in the timeline between the two behaviors is your hold time. Not sure why you are using a camera unless you have a behavior on the camera.If you are using keyframes just set two keyframes at the same position values in the inspector for the hold time.

How do I add a second page to a document in Pages 5.2?

Hello jeddi17,
You can insert a page break with the Insert (menu) > Page Break.
Note if your typing overflows the first page, then a new page is automatically created.

Force text to the next line or page
A line break, also called a soft return, starts a new line without starting a new paragraph. A page break moves the next line of text to the top of the next page.
Click where you want the break to occur.
Do one of the following:
For a line break: Press Shift-Return.
For a page break: Click Insert in the toolbar, then choose Page Break.
Take care,

Your single license allows you to have two active installations, meaning you can have it installed and enabled on two machines. You can have the software installed on as many machines as you like, but only two of them can be in an activated state at a given time.
As far as using the two machines at the same time goes, the jury is currently out on that - I had the question in for clarification but did not get a response yet. They recently rewrote the license agreement and the portion that explicitly stated you cannot use the two at the same time was either removed or relocated somewhere else that I have yet to find.
If you mean that you want to have another machine licensed for someone else to use then you need to buy a new license for that other person.

If you are using Apple's Mail setup is: Mail>Preferences>Accounts tab, click the + sign to add an account. You'll need the email account name and password to input on the first screen. Mail should then attempt auto-setup but if it can't do it you'll need to manually add the mail server info, etc.
