How do I import Word 2007 Template (.dotx) into Pages '09?

How do I import a Word 2007 template? Is there a one step solution, or do I just need to open the template file and re-save it as a Pages template?

fruhalda,
What is the problem with opening your Word template in Pages and then save it as a Pages template. It is as direct as can be in my view. Remember it is two different applications here.
None, really, just ignorance on my part. It's the first version of iWork that I buy--and my first iMac, too--and I was expecting "Word-like" behavior, which I shouldn't. The applications target a different market segment--after using Word for 15 years Pages is a welcome improvement in usability for everyday documents. We'll see how it holds its ground to larger documents.
I'm glad that, paraphrasing Einstein, I think, it is "as compatible to Word as possible," but no more than only the necessary to import documents.
I may be getting Office 2008 to work around these incompatibilities while I get used to iWork--and there are some features that are simply not there. At least in the trial version I could verify that they have preserved the Windows shortcuts, which has allowed me to move on faster.
Kind regards,
--Javier

  • How do I import Word:Mac docs into DW MX for Mac?

    Hi. How do I import Word:Mac docs into DW MX for Mac? Thanks!

    Have you tried direct import from the word document itself by going to:
    File >> Import >> Word Document
    This facility is available in CS 4 and after but I am not sure if it was
    there in MX versions.  Otherwise the only option left is to paste the
    text into a text file and then copy/paste it in your webpage in DW.
    Copy Special might work if you do it in Code View.

  • How do I import Map Info Tab files into Spatial for a map of europe?

    How do I import Map Info Tab files into Spatial for a map of europe via FME and have oracle spatial draw the map without problems?
    So far I've got to the stage where I can import the data, spatially index it (in oracle 9i) and get my SVG (scaleable vector graphics) application to view the map.
    The problem is that countries that have more than one polygon (more than one row in the database) do not draw properly.
    When I view the Map Info tab file in the FME viewer I can see that the data is fine, but I can also see that some of the polygons used to draw a country are donugts and some aren't.
    This seems to cause a problem when I import the data into oracle spatial as I don't know if a row in the table needs to be inserted as an independent SDO_GEOMETRY or if it should form part of a larger SDO_GEOMETRY (as in 2 or more rows make up the polygon shape for a country).
    I have a feeling that I'm not using FME correctly, because at the moment I have to import the tab file into Oracle then re-insert the data into a spatially formatted table (one with a spatial index) - I get the impression that FME should do that for me but as I'm new to this I don't really know.
    Any Help welcome :|
    Tim

    Tim,
    MapInfo has a free utility called EasyLoader that allows you to upload a table directly to Oracle. EasyLoader creates the geometries and spatial index. You can download it free from http://www.mapinfo.com/products/download.cfm?ProductID=1044

  • How can I import all my gmail contacts into iPad? I use iPad mini and the solutions available on the web are not compatible.

    How can I import all my gmail contacts into iPad? I use iPad mini and the solutions available on the web are not compatible.

    Hello and thanks for the answer.
    I meant by "not compatible" that all the solutions that I found on the web did not work, especially the "Microsoft exchange" one.
    Fortunately I found on the comments of the first website you mentioned the right answer for me, which I copy below:
    Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > Other > Add CardDav Account.
    Enter the following information in the fields:
    Server: google.com
    User Name: Enter your full Google email address
    Password: Your Google account password
    Select Next at the top of the screen to complete the setup.
    After you have completed the setup, open the Contacts app on your device. Syncing should begin automatically.
    Additional Information
    Note: Make sure that SSL is enabled (under Advanced settings), and that the port is 443.
    If you are using application based special password go to https://accounts.google.com/Se... and instead of your password put that special code and u r done.

  • How do You import an MS Access MDB into Dreamweaver CS5?

    Hi;
    How do You import an MS Access MDB into Dreamweaver CS5?
    Developed a DBase application for a vertical market using MS Access. Worked on it for over a decade.
    Have been in contact with a rather large company and we are talking about licensing my program with them.
    BUT; they want it "On the Cloud"
    Here is what needs to be accomplished. Ideally a user can log in from anywhere, (similar to on-line banking), enter data and print reports.
    Read this a few days ago:
    "If I were in your situation and felt that there's a growth market for your offerings, I would personally go with a PHP/MySQL-based model. The printing issue can be readily resolved with PDF-based output.
    So the Querys, Forms and VBA Code needs to be brought in from MS Access to Dreamweaver.
    Can this be done?  Or is there a better way that I haven't learned yet?
    Would someone be so kind and point me in the correct direction.
    Thank You for taking the time to read this post.
    Andy

    >Can this be done?
    No, not any way that I know of. You would need to completely rewrite this as a web application. Obviously the MS Access tables can be migrated to MySQL and the Access queries converted to views. But the forms and custom code needs to be written from scratch in html and your choice of server side programming language.

    How can I import Windows Media Player Playlists, into iTunes Playlists, with Music . .  for an iPod
    We are having no luck with the thousands of songs we have to manualy add to a particular playlist in iTunes alone. .. there must be a simpler way! How can this be done . . . if there is and it's complicated, is the Genius allowed to help us out with this? They seem to only master Mac's only. .  or can they help us? PL E A SE E E  HELLPPP!

    tt2,
    Your very helpful and knowledgeable. I for one appreciate all the hardwork and help you have been giving the people on theses lists, especially with the problems associated with the "importing playlists" from windows media. Unfortunately I need more help if you or someone else can provide it. I followed all the steps you have instructed so far in the threads I have seen. Unfortunately nothing so far works for me. Maybe you or someone can help me, I'd really appreciate it. I tried the notepad++ method and when I click on save I always get a notepad file that my iTunes can't do anything with. I click the "convert to UTF-8 without BOM" then click save as and it still saves as a notepad file. I am also unable to find the \n\ file path to replace with my \C:\ filepath. Here is a copy of the first part of one of my playlists:
    <?wpl version="1.0"?>
    <smil>
        <head>
            <meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Windows Media Player -- 12.0.7601.17514"/>
            <meta name="ItemCount" content="161"/>
            <author/>
            <title>Power Surge</title>
        </head>
        <body>
            <seq>
                <media src="..\Various Artists\Mixed Tape 2\13 Out of Control.wma" tid="{650561AF-AA9D-4EA3-84CC-2F09C24DF3B3}"/>

    Now I went and switched the part from  <media src="..\ to <media src="C:\ in all the files in hopes that was where I am supposed to have my drive letter but it didn't seem to help. Please forgive my encoding ignorance if that's what my problem is. I hope you can help.  Thanks in advance.

  • How do I import photos from E mail to Pages

    How do I import photos from E mails to Pages?

    Send yourself an e-mail with image embedded or attached.
    Open e-mail in Safari.
    If embedded, click the small, LEFT pointing arrow in upper right of tool bar.
    Click "Save image,"
    It will go into your "Photos" icon on your Home screen.
    If attached, download the attachment. It should go into your "Photos" icon....I think. I haven't tried this with an attached photo.
    Click on "Photo" icon to check if it/they are there.
    Select the photo you want to import to pages by clicking on it..
    When you do so, you will see on the toolbar that pops-up above, a small box with a right-pointing arrow. Click on it. Select "Copy Photo."
    Go back to your "Home" page.
    Click on the "Pages" icon..
    As a test, open a blank/new document.
    Click anyplace on it until you see a menu open-up that says "Select - Select all - Paste."
    Click on "Paste."
    Click on "Undo" in the upper left of the toolbar to get rid of it.
    You can repeat this on any document that accepts images by putting in the cursor wherever you want the photo inserted, tap until the "Select - Select As - Paste" box reapperas and  and click "Paste."
    Good luck.

  • How do I import iPhoto raw (NEF) files into Lightroom 3.6?

    how do I import iPhoto raw (NEF) files into Lightroom 3.6?

    You will need an application that can convert those pcd files into one that iPhoto supports, mainly jpeg. GraphicConverter is supposed to support many, many formats and might just support the pcd. If so you could use it to convert them to jpegs.
    There's an automator workflow that I've put into an application that will take many image files and convert them into jpeg with the RGB color profile. I've never tried it on the Kodak files but you can give it a try. It's called +*Convert to JPG and Embed sRGB profile*+ and can be downloaded from Toad's Cellar. Make a copy of a couple of files and see if it will work. If so then you can batch convert folders of the files at once by dragging them onto the application.
    I believe GC can do batch conversions but am not familiar with the application.

  • How do I import or export iLife music into Final Cut Pro 7. Thanks

    How do I import or export iLife music into Final Cut Pro 7? Thanks.

    Locate the .caf file you want to use in FCP in the Finder.  Normally, iLife sound files will be in Macintosh HD/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple/iLife Sound Effects/(subfolder).
    Open the file on SoundTrack Pro, the go to File->Save a Copy As.  In the Save As window that will open, navigate to where you want to save the file, then near the bottom of that window, use the drop-down File Format menu to choose AIFF.  Set the bit depth to 16-Bit Integer and the Sampling Rate to 48000 hz.
    Import the resulting AIFF file into your FCP project.
