How do I avoid importing MS Word file duplicates in Pages for Ipad 2?

Hi Cabrinii,
The sign on the door is a bit misleading, and you're not the first (or even the first in the last hour or so) to come to this Pages (Mac version) forum to ask a question about Pages for iOS.
Not many of us use iPad, so your question will be better served in the iWork for iOS community. The link will take you there.
Regards,
Barry

Does anyone know how to exclude footnotes from the word count in the Pages for iPad app?

If I create a doc on pages for ipad, then view it on the iMac, the word count is lower. I figured out that this is because Pages counts all the words in the footnotes. Does anyone know how to make it exclude footnotes from the word count?

I see the exact same behavior on my IPAD(s) and IPHONE(s). This isn't the loss of titles already identified in other posts. Every movie that wasn't purchased from iTunes, meaning all my movies of my kids, shows it sync in iTunes, but doesn't show up anywhere on the devices.
Help Apple! Please un-break the feature that was functional before.

Re-Importing a Word File Into RoboHTML

I've got a RoboHTML project where I imported a Word file with
H1s and H2s that automatically became topics and keywords that
automatically became Index entries. In addition, after the import,
I created a Browse Sequence and TOC entries for the imported
topics.
Question: what's the best way to update these imported topics
after my SME comes to me and says that they've updated the Word
file (as they have)? My gut instinct is to delete the new folder
that contains the imported topics and re-import the entire
document, especially since I don't know what's changed. However, if
I do that, what happens to the existing Index entries, Browse
Sequence, and TOC entries?
Further, I can't seem to delete the folder containing the new
topics from the Project tab. If deleting the imported topics is the
way to go, how do I delete the folder so I can start over by
re-importing the Word file?
Is there a better way to do this than by deleting the topic
folder?

Hi there J. J. Haas and welcome to our community
In addition to what Leon offered, another approach might be
to create a fresh RoboHelp HTML project with the same basic folder
structure and import the Document there. Then simply copy the HTM
files to the existing project and overwrite the existing topics.
That shouldn't mess with any existing links and whatnot.
Just a thought... Rick

What's the best way to import spoken word files?

How do you import spoken word files, such as audio books etc?
Of course, there's no need to use as much a high bit rate as one would for music... does anyone have some good advice about the way to import it?
If I use AAC, is the 'Spoken Podcast' setting good for any type of word file? (In Preferences > Advanced > Importing.)
Thank-you everyone.

I would recommend the 'Spoken Podcast' setting. The same setting is used for audiobooks available at the iTMS.
I imported spoken word at a higher bitrate and, but couldn't hear substantial differences with the 'Podcast' setting.

What does "extracted channel PDF" mean and why does it continually duplicate on my desktop? I think it happens when I move a file in Finder to another file and when I copy some web files. How do I avoid this on my Mac (Mavericks)? Thanks for your help!

What application is set to open PDF files? If you CNTRL click on the file and open with Preview does the problem occur?
If not change the default application to open PDF files to Preview.
You can do this by highlighting the file and either use CMD i or Get Info , this will open a window with the info on the file with an option to change the application that opens the file.
That's all I can think of.

Ah yes school boy error there out of frustration and discontent..
My issue is with music/apps/films etc not downloading from iTunes / App Store.
They initially fail and message is displayed stating unable to download / purchase at this time, yet if I retry it says I've already purchased (?) or alternatively I go to the purchased section and there they are waiting with the cloud symbol..
However some items get frozen in the download window and cannot be retried or deleted. Message appears stating to tap to retry, but even if you stole every bath and sink in the uk you'd still not have enough taps.
I post here as the iTunes guys are useless in there 'help' and have only advised posting here or phoning apple, at my expense, to explain a problem that could be rectified by forwarding my original email to a techie. However the tech team apparently don't have an email address as they're from ye olde Middle Ages..!
Anyways I digress.
So I tried sync to pc, but instead of showing the file as ready to listen/use/view, the iCloud symbol shows and I'm back to square one as the item is unable to download..
At frustration station waiting for a train from pain...
All my software is up to date, and had all worked fine prior to the last big iOS update that resulted in all the changes in display and dismay.
Answers in a postcard :-)
Much love

While you cannot import the whole Numbers document into the Pages document, you can copy and paste data from a Numbers file into a Pages file:

How do i restore a microsoft word file i replaced

how do i restore a microsoft word file i replaced

Did you save over the 'old' file - and now you want to recover it? AFAIK, it can't be done - that's what "Save as..." is for.

Hi there, I have much files saved on pages ( ios ipad) , I just open it today and did not find .all the files !!!! Just 4!!! Taken in consider that I did not delete or making any wrong action. How I can return the lost files!!!! Help please

Hi there, I have much files saved on pages ( ios ipad) , I just open it today and did not find .all the files !!!! Just 4!!! Taken in consider that I did not delete or making any wrong action. How I can return the lost files!!!! Help please
its very important files!

tis true
I know, I always do that but I was in a rush to get somewhere and I was relying on my thousand dollar Mac to do some kind of recovery or something. I know Microsoft always keeps temporary files (I think Mac does too, part of me asking here in this forum was for someone to tell me where I can find those files) and when you go to open Office Works then it gives you the option of opening the last recent documents, saved or not saved.
I usually copy paste into my emial just in case something goes wrong with the created document but I just didn't have the time to login and do all that My loss, you live and you learn, BUT still if ANYONE got any info on this, PLEASE DO CHIME IN *keeping the hope alive*

On iPad can I open a Microsoft word file with apple pages app?

On iPad, can I open a Microsoft word file with apple pages application? If so how do I perform this activity?

Yes you can open Word files. If it is an email attachment you can simply tap and hold down on the icon and select "open in" and then select Pages - as long as you have the Pages app on the iPad.
Where is the file on your iPad or how do you want to move it to the iPad?

How can I print mulitple different .ai files onto one page in Illustrator CS6?

How can I print mulitple different .ai files onto one page in Illustrator CS6? I have all of the files organized by Arrange Documents>Tile All in Grid and I would like to print the files in this format so that they can all be seen at once when printed out onto one page.
Some background is that I have 16 different cad drawings that I have converted and edited in illustrator. I'd like to basically make a contact sheet with all 16 drawings so that they can be reviewed on one sheet of paper after printing. But each drawing is in it's own unique file, and I have not figured out how to put them all onto one page for printing.

You can place them (linked) into a new Illustrator file and print from there.
The original files will need pdf compatability.

You want to just use Dropbox until the dust settles. To use it from iWork for iOS (assuming you have the Dropbox app installed on your device), open the document in Keynote (for example), tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), choose Open in Another App, choose Keynote as your format, then choose Open in Dropbox and you will get an option to save it to your Dropbox account. To open it from Dropbox in iWork for iOS, open the document in the Dropbox app, tap the share icon, tap Open in Keynote (for example). It's a bit clunky, but works.

How to double space in Pages for iPad?

How to double space in Pages for iPad?

Double spacing is double spacing whether you are using Pages or Word. Double spacing is dependent upon the font size that you are using in the document no matter which word processing app that you use.
Pages on the iPad has limited fonts and chances are pretty good that if you import a Word file into Pages on the iPad, there will be some formatting or font issues.
But once again, Helvetica in Pages is pretty much the same Helvetica as you would be using in Word. If you use a font in Word that is not available in Pages, you will see a warning message that some elements of the original document have been changed.
