How do I get headers to reproduce on other pages in the document?

I've spent about 30 minutes on this problem and I'm running out of time. I opened my newsletter project in new Pages and things are not as they should be in the template. I'll leave the griping to other people. They're doing a great job expressing my frustration. I just want to know how to fix this simple problem:
The header info on Page 1 is no longer showing up on Page 2. There is Lorem Ipsum style text there now. And the date is wrong. Same issue with the footers. The hole point of having headers and footers for me is to edit copy in one place that propogates through the entire document. I suspect the new ability to spawn new headers & footers per page is the culprit. A drop down on the Page 1 header reads "Editing header for pages 1-2", but this isn't so. Page 2 clearly has a separate header. No changes to Page 1 are reflected in Page 2. I'm stumped. Anybody know how to tell Pages to fix this? I've even tried deleting the Page 2 header, but still can't find a way to get the Page 1 header to reproduce there.

I've got a similar problem but somewhat backwards to yours.
I have a new MacBook Pro 15 Retina, running Yosemite.  I am using Pages to rewrite my resume from scratch, based on past versions and notes.
I worked two hours on the page header for page one.  When I started working on the page one header there were three pages in the document, each put there because I inserted a page break.  I also made sure that the document inspector had Hide First Page and Match Previous Section were NOT selected.
Much to my surprise when I finished working on the header on page one, the same header was on page two.  I started to change the header on page two, but found it was changing the first page header.
Going back and forth for a couple of hours I now have the page one header ok by itself.  Except . . . when I clicked in the page one header a pop up bubble appeared with the message: "Editing header for pages 1 - 2."
The only thing I can think of is that the header I composed is fairly complex.  It has a mixture of fonts, sizes, and colors.  Outside of the header box I made a horizontal line, 1 pt. in size, with a grey color.  I moved the line into the area with the header box and the result is great.  Except that is not the header I want for page two.
I would sincerely appreciate any suggestions based upon practical experience that has worked.  Please, you are kind, but no guesses.

  • How do I get text to flow from one page to the next in Pages 5?

    How do I get text to flow from one page to the next in Pages 5 with the Maverick system?

    What may be overlooked in Pages v5 is the notion of combining Text Boxes via the Menu > View > Show Arrange Tools. When you select two Text Boxes, an extra panel unfolds at the bottom of the Arrange Tools window. Uncheck one Text Box and this panel abruptly disappears.
    One can achieve text flow effects between Text Boxes differently based on how one positions the Text Box overlap, and choice of effect above. Though not the accustomed flow found in Pages ’09 v4.3, flow does occur. Consider the possibilities of combining a Shape and a Text box to cut an irregular Text box.
    If I create two Text Boxes and position them side by side with outline touching and choose Unite, this creates one larger Text Box and text flows across and down. On the otherhand, if I overlap the upper left corner of a lower Text Box over one above and to the left, then choose Union, pasted text fills the first Text Box and then flows across and down into the other box. Here is a Union example:
    Intersect will leave a small Text Box where the two overlap, so not much value there. Subtract will cut a chunk out of one Text Box that is the size of the overlapping piece of the second Text Box:
    And Intersect will leave an island in the center where the two Text Box overlap, with flow jumping over this bridge.
    Clearly, this is not what we were accustomed to in the past, but with imagination, style, and layout tuning, it does offer alternative Text Box creativity and layout. Of course, there is the option of simply returning to the previous Pages version for true Text Box linking that most will want to use.

  • How can I get my Indesign script to apply to all pages in the document?

    My script (java) shown below will only apply to the first page of the document. How can i get it to apply to all pages of my document? What am I missing? Thanks.
    scirpt:
    myDocument = app.activeDocument
    with (myDocument.pages.item(0).marginPreferences){
    columnCount = 1;
    //columnGutter can be a number or a measurement string.
    columnGutter = "0";
    bottom = "0"
    //When document.documentPreferences.facingPages == true,
    //"left" means inside; "right" means outside.
    left = "0"
    right = "0"
    top = "0"
    inside = "0"

    Hi,
    You have to iterate through all pages.marginPreferences:
    var
      myDocument = app.activeDocument,
      allPagesMaPref = myDocument.pages.everyItem().marginPreferences,
      curPageMaPref;
    while ( curPageMaPref = allPagesMaPref.pop() )
      with (curPageMaPref) {
      columnCount = 1;
      //columnGutter can be a number or a measurement string.
      columnGutter = "0";
      bottom = "0"
      //When document.documentPreferences.facingPages == true,
      //"left" means inside; "right" means outside.
      left = "40"
      right = "0"
      top = "0"
      inside = "0"

    You can't change the way Pages import .doc files.
    It was never written that it reproduce exactly the original one.
    From my point of view, as I refuse to give a cent to M...soft, the best way to deal with documents issued by their Office suite is to use the free libreOffice.

    try disabling email scanning for incoming mail.
    One of the last things that occurs is the mail server and Thunderbird sign off on "where we are up to" and Thunderbird stores this state information in the popstate.dat file in your profile (there is one in each POP mail account folder). If the anti virus, or you for that matter, end the conversation a few seconds early that hand off does not occur and the popstate is not stored.

    As long as they are already ticked in your iTunes then yes. Just to check do a sync and as long as everything stays the same you are good to go.

  • I have 3 iphones, an ipod touch and an Ipad on the same itunes account.  should I have a different account for each device?  If so how do I get all my purchases, like music on all the devices?

    You can sync as many devices as you want to the same iTunes account, there is no limit. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. iTunes will keep everything straight, by device, including separate backups. I'd suggest giving each device a unique name, to make things easier.

    Gather up the proof that the dealership is the original purchaser of the iPad,
    and take the iPad & that proof to a physical Apple store for possible assistance.
    It is highly suggested that you make a genius bar appointment to avoid delay

  • How do I get PDF forms to export to excel in the desired order?

    How do I get PDF forms to export to excel in the desired order?
    Here is what I have done:
    As taken from another post:
    Choose Forms > Manage Form Data > Merge Data Files Into Spreadsheet.
    In the Export Data From Multiple Forms dialog box, click Add Files.
    In the Select file Containing Form Data dialog box, select a file format option in File Of Type option (Acrobat Form Data Files or All Files). Then locate the form files that you want to merge into the spreadsheet, select them, and click Select.
    Repeat the previous step to add form data files that are in other locations, as needed.
    Click Export. Then select a folder and filename for the spreadsheet, and click Save.
    In the Export Progress dialog box, click either View File Now to open the spreadsheet file or Close Dialog to return to Acrobat."
         The problem now is that Adobe populates Excel in ABC order of the form, based off of the name of each box in the form. For example, if my form has three text boxes, named A, B, and C, then Adobe will export to Excel as such:
    Row 1 =         A                              B                              C
    Row 2 =         data entered             data entered              data entered
    where 'data entered' is whatever the user typed into the form boxes. But what if I want a different order for exporting, and I don't want to rename my text boxes? What if I want:
    Row 1 =         C                              B                              A
    Row 2 =         data entered             data entered              data entered   ?
    Is there a way to do this in acrobat x or xi?
    Thanks

    I don't have time to test right now, but there was a change with Acrobat 10 where it exports according to the tab order, which you may have to set manually, so give that a shot. Otherwise, you'll have to process the file after it's exported if you need the fields in a particular order. This wouldn't be too difficult to do with something like a VBS or JS script in Windows.

    Are your tracks pat of a collection? Different artists, but still one album? Then mark them a s acollection or set the album artist. See this guide on how to group separate tracks into albums:
