How do I make the Black in Pages True Black? I make Newspaper ads and they are starting to look anemic.

Sorry Eric but that is the wrong specification and will produce a muddy brownish grey with possible registration problems particularly in small type as well as being wasteful on ink.

Open the Color Picker > click on the color slider tab > click on the color mode patch > choose Black & White > Brightness: 0% (black patch) > drag down to recognisable swatch below
To label it > click on the color sets tab (3rd tab) > click on the gear > New > Rename the set "DrD's > drag down the swatch from the bar above > Label that 100k > click on any stray swatches and rempve by clicking on the - button below
These swatches are System wide and available to any application that accesses the Color Picker. Unfortunately Apple has not seen fit to make them easily transferrable or saveable and importable.
Make the 100k swatch part of your Styles in the Styles Drawer, particularly the text to ensure it is used, you can't spot it on screen and there is no feedback anywhere that it is selected.

  • My ipad mini was stolen and i have activated the find my phone to lock it. how can i get the serial number off my itunes or icloud profile? and what are the chances that the find my iphone app works when someome erases the device?

    my ipad mini has been stolen and i have activated the find my iphone to lock. now it is only a wifi device so what are the chances that a person can get hold of it and log onto wifi without the password of my device to unlock. does that not make the app rather less useful as i have to hope that the person is apt enough to log onto the internet but not enough to erase it and start afresh. is it possible to find my device even afte someone has erased it?

    "Losing your iPhone feels lousy. Thankfully, iCloud can help you get it back. But if it looks like that’s not going to happen, new Find My iPhone features in iOS 7 make it harder for anyone who’s not you to use or sell your device. Now turning off Find My iPhone or erasing your device requires your Apple ID and password. Find My iPhone can also continue to display a custom message, even after your device is erased. And your Apple ID and password are required before anyone can reactivate it."

  • How do i change the amount of time for slides in a keynote presentation so they are not the same

    how do i vary the times for the slides in a keynote presentation, i have 3 videos i need to run longer and the slides I want to run the same

    Is this for an unattended presentation?
    1. If not, the option would seem to be:
    Manually advance the slides containing the videos or
    set the transition delay time to the next slide to occur after the video completes using the
    Slide > Transition Inspector > Delay (max delay is 600 seconds so if video is longer than 10 minutes, an automatic delay wouldn't work)
    2. If you plan this to be unattended your best bet is to compile it in iMovie and have a looping video with all parts timed in the video to your liking.

    Hi, I have the new mac, and I cant find how to download all the audiobooks I've purchased? I've gone to purchased, but they are no where to be seen,m can anyone help. Robert

    You cannot redownload audiobooks at all.  The audiobook industry does not allow this.
    As always have been the case, you should copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

  • I had photoshop 10 on my mac pro.  I bought a new computer and tried to transfer it.  The transfer did not work in that the software said it was incompatible.  I contacted adobe and they are no hope.

    Adobe said to ask you guys what to do.  One of the support personel gave me a link to cs3.  The link did not work.

    I bought a new computer and tried to transfer it.
    What does this mean exactly?
    If you are looking for the installer you should be able to get them from this site (if you follow the instructions):
    Download Adobe CS4 and CS3 Free Trials Here (incl. After Effects) | ProDesignTools

    This is a copy of ONEof the keys  in the registry I changed  as told by Apple support today. I also have changed others as instructed by GEAR  software support to manually delete GEAR drivers (that I had installed but couldn't delete some of the others  they mentioned from Windows system 32. Then some bright spark at work told me I need the Gear drivers so  I downloaded the software and installed again.
    Sorry, just this minute went to insert image  and it is giving me a message saying this sort of content  is not allowed?.
    The most recent key I altered is in: HKey _local _machine. System\class - 4D36E965-E325-11CEBFC1-08002BE10318. Upper Filter data: Upper filter NTIDrvr  SiRem GEARAspiWDN.

  • How do I resize the window of pages in the new version? It takes up most of my desktop. I would like to make it tall and narrow, which was possible in the old pages, but I cannot seem to do it in the new version.

    I agree it is a very bad and wasteful design especially for users on small laptop screens.
    You can drag it to whatever shape you want from the bottom left corner.
    Click on the paintbrush to make the Format side panel disappear. However you will need to use that side panel for most formatting.

  • How do i get the screen for pages and numbers to become bigger on my screen

    How do I get the Screen for pages, numbers and quickbooks to become bigger on my screen.
    The Font is fine for pringing

    Mac's don't have UI scale options like Windows has.
    Either you can drop the screen resolution in Displays a wee bit and make things appear distorted, or do what I do and use the Universal Access and set a control key, then use a mouse wheel/scroll to zoom in and out where the mouse is pointed.
    For easier web surfing I've got a good solution here

  • How do I change the new tabs page from google to the thumbnail one?

    I just downloaded some stuff and when I got back onto Firefox it made the home page and new tab page Google. I changed the home page back but I'm unsure of how to make the new tab page the way it is with the thumbnails. None of the articles I've read helped.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • How can you shrink the size of an upright picture to make it smaller without losing any of the detail in it??? At the moment, if I view them on my laptop, landscape photos fill the screen, but portrait photos only show the middle part.

    How can you shrink the size of an upright picture to make it smaller without losing any of the detail in it (in Slideshow)??? At the moment, if I view them on my Mac Laptop, landscape photos fill the screen, but portrait photos only show the middle part, so I loose the top and bottom of the picture.  Have tried cropping, but that means I lose top and bottom part of the picture, so that is not the answer!!

    Homestly haven't a clue what's going on there. 
    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
    (On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
    (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • How can i disable the message "leave page / stay on page"

    These three userscripts are along the same lines as the one link to above:
    * [http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/180752 AllowPageClose] - recently posted, appears to run a timer to watch for changes and make sure it's really dead
    * [http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/121551 Disable - remove onbeforeunload]
    * [http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/98260 Kill Sure Want To Nav Away]
    None of the four scripts has any mechanism for site exceptions built into it, but you can make exceptions using Greasemonkey's user settings tab. You do that using the script's Options dialog. You can do that from the Add-ons page, User Scripts category. Either:
    * Monkey toolbar button > Manage User Scripts
    * Ctrl+Shift+a (Mac: Command+Alt+a) > User Scripts
    * orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > User Scripts
    Then click the Options button for the relevant script. On the User Settings tab, in the Excluded Pages box, you can enter the site that you want to carve out of the script. Note that in order to match all pages on the site, you need to use the wildcard character (*) as shown in the attached screen shot.

    When talking about a specific image posting the image may be useful.
    One can use a Layer Mask and add a white Layer underneath.
