How do I force Pages to open a document at the END of the document?

I have a document -- my personal diary -- in which I write almost every day. Every time I open it, it opens about 3/4 of the way into the document, then I have to go to the end of the document to write more. Is there any way to change this weird behavior so the document opens to the end?
I searched discussions and there is an archived discussion of this issue from 2008 where someone points out that if you manually go back to page 1 in the document, then use the Save command, the document will open to page 1 when next opened. However, I can't find any method to have the document open to the end, which seems like it should be an obvious option. I just find it strange that the document does not re-open to the last saved position, especially text documents.
Any workaround?
Thanks in advance.

Well, that was my problem. I was opening an "old" Pages document (updated to 09 of course, but originally it was an 06 document). I would write some additional material at the end and save. But next time I opened the doc it would open to a spot about 3/4 of the way through, not at the end. As I mentioned, I found another discussion in here from a few years back started by someone with the same problem.
Cutting and pasting is really pretty simple (actually I should say copying and pasting in this case): Open old doc, select all, copy, open new doc, paste, save with new name. That worked and now the new document opens to the end. Much more convenient.

  • How do I stop Pages from opening when I log back in? Login items are not ticked.

    Prior to Yosemite I had trouble with Pages where it closed down the app when I closed a document.
    I was given a command line to put in the 'Terminal' to deactivate Pages. This worked.
    That command was -  -g NSDisableAutomaticTermination -bool TRUE/False.   But that isn't recognised any longer when I reverse the True/False.
    But I now don't want Pages to open automatically when I Log in.
    The box is not ticked for Pages in System Preferences- Users- Login Items.

    It needs to be removed from the list, not just unticked.

  • How can I force firefox to open every new window at full size of the screen ?

    When I firefox, it reloads my opened windows, but not always at full size.
    So I have to resize each window manualy.
    Is it possible to force firefox to open every window at full size of the screen ?
    Or is it possible to Maximize every window already open in one click ? (like the use of CTRL key in Windows)

    Try experimenting with this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/
    By the way, if you have McAfee Site Advisor installed, disable it because it interferes with the way Firefox functions.

  • How do you get word count to print at the end of a document in Pages?

    How do you get word count to print at the end of a document in Pages?

    Pages v5 does not provide a user assignable word count variable. With some AppleScript, and a paste operation from the clipboard, you can have locale punctuated word count in this format: 7,803 — anywhere in your document. The following AppleScript works with Pages '09 v4.3 through Pages v5.5.2 on Yosemite.
    I would suggest that you copy paste the following AppleScript into your [Apple] Script Editor and save it (suggestion) wordcnt.applescript. Then, follow this with an option+Save As… and this time set the File format to Script Bundle, or Application with hidden extension — saved to your Desktop. Provided you have a Pages document open, you are then a double-click from the ability to paste your current word count into Pages.
    Note: If you have Pages word count display enabled, it will automatically count your pasted value as another word which initially may deceive on true word count at the time the script was run.
    AppleScript
    --- copy below this line ---
    property locale : "en_US.UTF-8" -- In Terminal, use the locale command to see yours
    if not ApplicationIsRunning("Pages") then
         display dialog "Pages must be running to use this utility."
         return quit
    end if
    tell application "Pages"
        tell body text of front document
            set wordCnt to count words
            -- Don't want punctuated numbers? Remove the single quote from printf format
            set the clipboard to (do shell script "export LC_ALL=" & locale & "; printf \"%'d\" " & wordCnt)
        end tell
    end tell
    on ApplicationIsRunning(appName)
         tell application "System Events" to set appNameIsRunning to exists (processes where name is appName)
         return appNameIsRunning
    end ApplicationIsRunning

  • A document page opens that is too big for the display and runs off the end of the monitor

    How do you fix a problem where document pages open that are too big for the display and runs off the end of the monitor? The borders are off the monitor so there is no window edge to grab and adjust.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • How to find end of the Page in Crystal ? or I need to add one Horizontal line at the end of the page.--- URGENT HELP NEEDED

    Hi friends,
    I need to add one horizontal line  for the detail section at the end of the page.
    I tried to put that line in page footer and i tried with Box also. Both are not properly working. Some space problem is coming.
    Is there any feature to find end of the Page.
    I want report format like this.
    set id  |  set name |  date  Name
      1         x           dddd   vijay
                            dddd   sarathi
                            dddd    reddy
    (End of the page)
    Thanks in advance...
    vijay.

    Do you know how many detail records are showing up per page?
    If you do - you could create a Details B section that is suppressed except for on Record N (where N is a counter, and N is the last Detail record that will show up on a page).
    The Page footer is indeed built so that it will be rendered at the bottom of your physical page of paper.

  • Does anyone know how to add a preface page at the beginning of the book in ibooks author once the book is written? No matter how I try to add a Preface page, it goes to the end of the book.

    Does anyone know how to add a preface page at the beginning of the book in ibooks author once the book is written? No matter how I try to add a Preface page, it goes to the end of the book.

    Thanks. I've tried this and apparently the template I'm using is one of those where it doesn't work. I've tried dragging it as well as cutting a pasting but it always travels back to the end of the book. Maybe I can try changing the template temporarily, move the preface page, and then convert back to the original template. I'll experiment a little.

  • How do I get new tabs to open at the end of the tab bar rather than next to the tab i am working on?

    Im running firefox 3.6.12 on a pretty dated computer. Im using Windows XP Home Edition SP3
    On previous FireFox editions, opening new tabs from pages Im working on, used to appear at the end of the list of tabs. Now when I open it, it appears right next to me.
    Is there a way of altering this setting? I often open multiple tabs from the same page by clicking a link with the mouse wheel and I like to work through them in the order I clicked them. This is usualy for comparing things like holidays, car insurance etc
    thankyou

  • Firefox 8 puts new tabs opened from links in another tab at the end of the tab list, NOT next to the tab it came from like in V3.6. I want it next to the tab it came from. How do I get it to do this?

    Question as stated, sums it up. When I click the mousewheel on a link in a tab I want a new tab open with that link and I want it next to the tab I clicked the link in just like Firefox V3.6 did. Firefox 8 is always opening the new tab at the end of the list and boy is this annoying!
    Please tell me how to fix this.

    type in the address bar '''about:config'''
    then press the button '''i'l be careful i promise'''
    then type in the bar '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent'''
    then '''Right-click''' click on it, and select '''Toggle''', and you see changing the value from True to '''False'''.
    exit firefox and restart.
