How do I select multiple images in pages

In Apple works drawing it was simple to select several images by click and dragging a box over some images and they were all selected at the same time. Now I only get a pointer arrow when over an object at all other times I get an I bar. Am I missing something?

Thanks Peter,
That works fine , however as it was simpler in Apple Works with only one hand needed, I had wondered if it could be done in pages. I still have Apple Works on a desktop and it is a pleasure using it for class room posters and the like. Pity was that pages (which I love) does not have all the functionality that AW had

    How do I select multiple images without clicking on each one? Is there a way to select duplicate photos to delete them?

    Consider adding the delete symbol to the Finder window tool bar.  This way you can highlight all the photos you want to delete at the same time then hit the "delete" symbol.
    Open a Finder window/View/Customize Toolbar - follow the directions in the customized pop down window.

  • How do I select multiple text in Pages

    I'm using the newest version of pages.
    In MS office WORD, I can hold the Ctrl key and with multiple klick in the text I can select multiple text.
    Does pages has the similar function?

    Not possible in Pages 5.2.2, this has been removed by Apple along with 110 features.
    In Pages '09 you hold down the command key, the exact same equivalent as in Word for Windows.

  • How can i select multiple images at one go?

    Suppose there a numerous images in a webpage which are lined up in columns in the following manner:
    1.jpg
    2.jpg
    3.jpg
    4.jpg
    5.jpg
    6.jpg
    7.jpg
    8.jpg
    9.jpg
    10.jpg
    n+1.jpg
    Now i simply select the last image that is 10.jpg and all the images above upto 1.jpg are automatically selected or vice versa that is i select 1.jpg and all the images below upto 10.jpg are automatically selected.
    Is there any trick/keyboard shortcut to do that?
    Pressing shift and up/down key takes too much time and is much tedious so is there any better way?

    See if this extension will help you.

  • Can see only one photo per page. How to revert to multiple images per page?

    First noticed on my iMac and now on my Macbook (10.4.9)--I'm no longer seeing a month's worth of photos on a single page. Only one photo per page, sometimes with miniature ones in the top border. I thought it was simply an inadvertent click on by part and easily corrected. But all attempts on both computers and reading of Help index haven't led to restoration of an entire page of photos and elimination of the annoyance. I'm wondering now if something I downloaded might have altered iPhoto program itself, making it impossible to view large numbers of photos at the same time. Any suggestions appreciated.

    Cap,
    This view, with the one photo big and the thumbnail strip across the top, is what happens when you double-click a photo with "Edit in: Main Window" set in the Preferences. There should be a button visible that says either Done or Return, to exit edit mode and return you to the library. If you still see only one photo, use the size slider in the lower right corner to reduce the photo size and get more thumbnails on the page.
    If, for some reason, you can't exit the edit mode, you may have a corrupt preference file. Quit iPhoto. Use the Finder to navigate to Macintosh HD/ Users/ (your user name)/ Library/ Preferences/ com.apple.iPhoto.plist and move that file to the Trash. Launch iPhoto, and you should be returned to the main viewing mode. You'll have to go in the Preferences and reset them to your liking.
    Regards.

  • Selecting multiple objects in Pages '09

    Hi everybody,
    I was just wondering how to easily select multiple objects in Pages, as in Keynote. I mean, in Keynote you can just drag the mouse over the objects you want to select, and that's it. But in Pages I haven't be able to do that (not even with option or command keys), so I have to press shift and click on every object I want to select. This is quite tedious when you want to select many objects.
    Any help on that?
    Thanks,
    Rodrigo

    Thanks to both, I already sent my feedback to Apple, and I really hope that iWork X comes out soon, with more wonderful features.
    I have tried fruhulda's advice and it works, my thanks for that! My question now is: Why Apple doesn't provide any help on that? I knew that cmd-A selected all the floating objects on the document, but I needed to select only a few of them. That was the only Keynote feature I was missing (apart from the themes, with all those predefined colors, backgrounds, textures...).
    So thank you!
    Rodrigo

    To select consecutive images click and drag the cursor over multiple thumbnails to select all at once.
    To select multiple images that are randomly located hold down the Command(⌘) key and click on those images you want to select.
    Or to select consecutive images from a list of images that are together hold down the Shift key and and click on the first photo you want to select and the on the last photo you want in the list.

  • When selecting multiple images in LR 5.2 on Mac, how do I delete all selected photos?

    Based on http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1308132?tstart=0 I decided to add each question seperately:
    Hello, I'm quite interested in buying Lightroom 5.2. I tried the RC which ran out now. Yet, I have a several questions that I can't really find good conclusive answers to, that I'd like to get answered before buying LR. Please don't write maybe like this or that (assumptions), since I don't want to start my whole workflow and then realize that I have to change everything around, so please answer, if you know for sure that something works and you are, preferably, using that method too.
    When selecting multiple images in LR 5.2 RC on my Mac, using the Filmstrip view, how do I delete all selected files using a shortcut (as opposed to the right-click context-menu > remove selected photos)? Details: Using backspace asks me if I want to delete it, I choose from disk, but it just deletes individual photos, so if I have 3 selected, I need to do this 3 times.

    Many users (including me) will thank you for saving us the trouble of looking for this description in the manual. Seriously!
    However, if something performs unexpectedly, if it's not a bug, it's at least a user-inconvenience.
    When an unexpected result like this occurs in a product, often the documentation writer is given the task of writing the workaround into the docs. That's not a great way to fix bugs permanently, even if it does help in the short term. So, it's probably a good idea to point to where in the documentation it seems that the product-performance problem is smoothed over, when filing the report/request.
    Feature enhancement requests and bugs are filed the same way. And, developers do listen to requests. Many features in many Adobe products originated in feature requests. However, product managers and, financial-management folks above them, who have some power to decide where to expend resources, set the priorities. Adobe's new subscription model is supposed to release some of the pressure on developers to meet a new release deadline every-so-often, where a whole bunch of product improvements is revealed, and instead, under the idea of making constant improvements available through more-frequent updates, users will get results sooner.

    As far as I know, this is not a bug, this is a feature of Lightroom (although I can't explain why anyone would want Lightroom to operate this way). You can find text in the Lightroom Manual that clearly explains tha operations performed on selection of photos in the Filmstrip is different than the same operation performed on photos selected in the Grid.

  • How to select multiple images and creat new versions???

    How do i select 800 images and make new versions of all of them at the same time? I have tried, but it only does the primary one selected and i don't have primary only selected.

  • Cannot select multiple images in iPhoto '08?

    What am I doing wrong? I want to select multiple images to either print several on a page, or publish to a gallery, but for the life of me I cannot find a view which shows me all photo thumbnails or all thumbnails in an album or all in an event. I can spin the mousewheel to singly go through them, or I can hit edit and go to full screen where I get a thumbnail bar and can select multiples and view them at the same time, but printing or publishing this selection only recognizes the first photo as selected. If I try to select View>Thumbnails, the subsequent menu options are grayed out, and the top one is "hide" even though I see no thumbnail bar. Is there something very obvious I'm missing, or has something gone awry and I should reinstall?
    <Edited by Host>
    Any one can help them?
    Thanks

    There's a slider down right of the iPhoto Window - drag it left.

  • How Do I select Multiple songs to Use with Slideshow?

    I am running Lightroom 4 on an iMac with OS - Lion. Love it!
    I am trying to create a slideshow with music in the background but I cannot seem to select more than 1 song. How can I select multiple songs?
    Thanks
    Adrian

    The slide show feature in Lightroom isn't really very flexible or feature packed.  I suspect the design was to provide professional photographers a quick way to show proofs to clients.  You will have to use other software for what you intend to accomplish.  I'm going to be creating a slide show with about 500 images soon.  My intention is to create the slide show with Lightroom and export as video.  Then I will use Premiere Elements and import the video and lay down the music track.  There are easier ways to do it, I know.  But I don't do this kind of thing very often and don't plan to purchase more software that would make it easier.

  • How do I select multiple pictures in a folder

    How do I select multiple pictures in a folder? I have tried shift + click, command + click etc but cannot find a way of selecting a large group without selecting individually 

    Select the first image.  Then Command-Click on each additional image you want to select as part of a group.
    If you are using List mode, you can click on the first, then Shift-Click on the last, and all the files between the first and the last will also be selected.
    Command-Click will still work to add additional non-sequential, or to remove items from the list already selected.

  • MDM: Search for images in the dialog window "Select Multiple Images"

    Hi,
    are there possibilities to search for images in the dialog window "Select Multiple Images" (if you want to add a image to a record)?
    I know the possibilities to sort the images and the possibilities with the data groups. But I don't know a possibilities to search for a single image.
    Thanks for any help!
    Best regards, Melanie

    Hi,
          From the question you asked; its not much clear what your clear requirement is; but if its what i get then the solution is:
          How is that you want to select the image? With Image view or By viewing the image itself ? For it when u select "Select Multiple Images" you can find two as "Available Images" and "Selected Images" and in between u can find some buttons, after "All, Add, Remove and None" you can find two buttons "Thumb Nail" and "view Details". I think you can use these buttons for your solution.
          When you select "Thumb Nail" button you can see the image in real and select the image.  OR you can select "View Details" and check the file name or path or the requirement as required.

  • How can I print multiple photos per page?  It was simple in earlier versions of iPhoto.

    How can I print multiple photos per page?  It was simple in earlier versions of iPhoto.

    Do you want to print several different photos per page or multiples of the same photo?
    If you want to print several different photos,select them all at once and press command-P for "Print".  Pick the Custom Layout and adjust the photo size suitably.
    If you want multiples of the same photo, duplicate the photo several times and select all copies at once, then press command-P.

  • Issues when selecting multiple images in LR6.

    I've noticed a few changes to how LR6 behaves when I select multiple images.
    First, if I select a few images in the Library view, I am only essentially "stuck" in those images when I press the left or right arrow keys. In previous versions of LR, hitting the left or right arrow would move to image on either side of the selected images. Now I'm only able to endlessly scroll through the selected images and I have to press the up or down arrow to get out of the selected images. Is there a way to change it back to how it used to work?
    Second, and I think this is related to the first issue, I used to be able to select all images in a collection, press the down arrow and I'd end up at the last image in a collection. Now, it no longer works.
    Anyone else notice either of these things? Have you found a way to change it back to how it's always been?
    Thanks!

    Interesting. I just went back to LR5.7 (Mac) and confirmed that it behaves just like I originally said, but LR6 does not. Maybe Windows has always been this way? Regardless, any input from Mac users?
