How to close documents?

When I open pages it has all my recent documents as open but minimized in the app if that makes sense. Feels unnecessary and I want to close them but not sure how? Any ideas? Many thanks

That is your Template Chooser.
If you don't want that, open recent files instead, or change your Preferences.
There are many ways you can choose to open your work.

How To Close Documents Without Closing Entire App

Since the latest Pages update, when I close all open documents, it automatically closes the entire program and then I have to wait 15 minutes to start it back up. Is there any setting I can change to fix this?

That is just how long it takes the app to open up, give or take.
Version 5.1
Sometimes on my hard drive, sometimes to Apple's cloud, it has the same problem either way.

How to close documents in Preview?

I can't close anything in Preview. When I got to "Show All Windows" it show all kinds of things I've recently opened.
I go to each one and File > Window, and File > Close Selected Image but neither works. The window displaying the file disappears, but the file still shows up when I click and hold the Preview icon in my dock. I've tried the keystrokes (Command + W and Shift + Command + W), too. This just closes the windows, but nothing will keep them from showing up as open.
I don't see any preferences to stop this. Surely I can avoid showcasing everything I've been opening to anybody who might use my computer, right? SURELY.

One possibility:
Where are these windows appearing? If they are appearing along the bottom of the screen in Show all windows, they are not open but are being shown as your history of recent items. A sort of heavy-handed way to eliminate this display of recent items is to set "Number of recent applictions", "Applications", to zero in System Preferences, General.

Re:How to close and reopen a document immediately?

Original Message available here: <a href="/webx?14@@.3c055358">Dave Sykes, "How to close and reopen a document immediately?" #, 15 Nov 2007 4:46 am</a> > Dave Sykes - 04:46am Nov 15, 2007 Pacific I would like to close a document and then immediately afterwards open it up again. The documentation says "To process a command to close the document immediately, use IDocumentCommands::Close'', but it also points to SDKLayoutHelper::CloseDocument which uses IDocFileHandler::Close. If I use IDocumentCommands::Close the close succeeds, but InDesign unexpectedly quits when it regains control. If I use IDocFileHandler::Close then when I reopen the document I get the assert ``Calling SelectionExtentionRegistry::Initialize more than once!'' This is the same error I get by not closing the document at all. I have also tried ProcessCommand(Utils<IDocumentCommands>()->CreateCloseCommand(docUIDRef)), but this also crashes InDesign when it regains control. In all cases I am calling ProcessCommand(CmdUtils::CreateCommand(kCloseLayoutWinCmdBoss), as otherwise I get an error that the document is still referenced on close. Is it possible to close all the layout windows and also close the document, so that it can be reopened immediately? I had the same issue and tried to solve it by closing all windows in the document's IWindowList and then calling IDocFileHandler::Close() with IDocFileHandler::kProcess to process the command immediately instead of scheduling it. Unfortunately this still resulted in a crash. Eventually I got around it by adding the following line before re-opening the document: CmdUtils::ProcessScheduledCmds (ICommand::kLowestPriority); This forced InDesign to completely close the document before re-opening it again. Hope this helps someone else too. :) - Jackeen

I am having the same problem with InDesign CS4 version,
I have tried the following:
IDocFileHandler::Close() //with kSchedule command
CmdUtils::ProcessScheduledCmds(); //Results into crash
IWindowList::CloseAll()
IDocFileHandler::Close() //with kSchedule command
CmdUtils::ProcessScheduledCmds(); //Results into crash
IDocumentList::CloseAll()
IDocFileHandler::Close() //with kSchedule command
CmdUtils::ProcessScheduledCmds(); //Results into crash
IPresentationList::CloseAllPresentations()
IDocFileHandler::Close() //with kSchedule command
CmdUtils::ProcessScheduledCmds(); //Results into crash
is Three anything else that could work.

How do I get Pages to close documents on quit?

Sometime in the recent past a change was made to Pages.... it use to close all documents on quit, and ask to save things. Now it just quits and holds onto all the documents, so by now I have a million open documents when I open Pages, since it never closes anything on quit. How do I set it to close documents on quit.... because most of the time this is how I clear my desktop/workspace of documents I'm done with. Currently they never close unless I specifically close each one individually....and at this point Pages is useless to me.
Thanks

You might consider System Preferences > General > Close windows when quitting an application. Right above it, is Ask to keep changes when closing documents. If you select that, you can quit from Pages, and it will challenge you to Save your content, or revert to the prior version edit. The following is the dialog you receive from Pages v5 with this setting when you just Quit the application.

Hi,
    I have found solution of my problem.It is something trikey but it working fine.
As a beheviour of indesign desktop cannot possiable to do that so you can do as
1.For example you have 100 documents in your for loop
2.open document by calling javascript
var myDocument1 = app.open("E:\\Templates\\MyDoc.indt",false);
2.Save by sceond javascript call
if(app.documents.length != 0)
        var activedoc = app.documents[0];
        activedoc.save("E:\\Templates\\MyDoc.indd");
3.Get a document index no and by that achive a document pointer by using one script provider event that will used in the C++ code
if(app.documents.length != 0)
        var activedoc = app.documents[0];
        var s = activedoc.toSource();
        var ret = app.speak(s);
4.And finally closed the document
if(app.documents.length != 0)
        var activedoc = app.documents[0];
         activedoc.close();
Hopefully helpfull to such problem.
Thanks

How to close contract..

Dear All,
I want to close contract which is created using ME31K .
How to close it if my requirements are full (created PO and recd goods).
And also how to close if requirements are still open (PO not created)
Amit

Hi,
You have to close all purchasing documents (PR's,PO's).
Make sure that all PO's are GR and all invoices for GR PO's are paid.
You should not have open purchasing documents and when everything is closed and paid , only then you can mark your contract line item for deletion using T-code ME32K.
Thanks

In Dreamweaver 6, before I got a new computer, I could close
a document window and the program would go back to a blank New
Document screen. Now the entire program closes, and I can't find

know how to do this?
Thanks!

JS: How to close Adobe reader/Acrobat?

How to close a PDF file in Adobe reader/Acrobat using JS in Design?
Thanks in advance.

Here is an example:
#target indesign
var acroScript = 'var d = app.activeDocs;\r';
acroScript += 'for ( var i in d ) d[i].closeDoc( true );';
var bt = new BridgeTalk;
bt.target = "acrobat";
bt.body = acroScript;
bt.send();
It closes all open documents in Acrobat without saving. However it works only on PC and only in certain versions of InDesign and Acrobat. (I tested it at work, in InDesign CS3 and Acrobat 8 Pro, on Windows XP)
But at home computer I have Acrobat X version 10.1.1 and bridgetalk doesn't "see" it.
Note that closeDoc method has an optional parameter -- bNoSave -- whether to close the document without saving. If false (the default), the user is prompted to save the document if it has been modified. If true, the document is closed without prompting the user and without saving, even if the document has been modified.
Hope this helps.

I can't permanently close documents in Preview.

Hi! I'm having some troubles with Preview on Mac OSX Lion. I usually open a lot of PDFs and Pictures and naturally opened with Preview... But with the addition of Resume the pictures do show up again
BUT its not that you just close the document and its gone...
When I show the App Exposé and right click on the icon, it shows dozens of documents I have previously opened, still hidden and open in Preview!
Any Help on this??
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm having exactly the same problem as originally described in this post. I've tried what is suggested but upon opening preview and going into expose, 10 or so photos are displayed in the lower half of the screen. Can anyone please advise how to close them permanently? If I click on a photo, it opens in a large window and if I click close then go into expose, it's still shown in the lower half of the expose screen. Please help.
Thanks
Adam

How to close Open Outbound Deliveries

Hi All,
please could u tell me how to close Open Outbound Deliveries?
Regards,
Ramesh

Ramesh,
The delivery will be open until the PGI is completed and fully invoiced. If you don't want to inoice, then PGI needs to be reversed and delete the delivery.
If all the subsequent documents are created for full qunaity and still the delivery is open, then you will need to set the status as completed in the debug level. Consult your ABAP expert.
