How to make a certain document open as the default in Pages?

How can I set up Pages, so that a certain document opens as the default each time I start Pages? I keep my todo list as a Pages document. When I start Pages I'd like that to open as the default instead of a new blank page. Thanks in advance.

Jim
+Menu > Pages > Preferences > General > For New Documents: > Use template: > Choose…+
or if you don't want a template, when the Chooser comes up, down the bottom corner are 2 buttons:
*Open Recent* and *Open an Existing File…*
But better would be drag the document to your Dock and open it direct from there.
I also recommend you look at:

  • How to make a 2nd,  new Photo Library the default on open

    well, we've now reached 15,000 picts on my iPhoto and you know what that means.
    I read MISSING MANUAL (pogue) and now how, with option-boot up, to create a new photo library. Very cool.
    HOWEVER: I wish this new library to be the default library when I open up iPHoto 5.
    How do do?
    JON

    JON,
    iPhoto opens the most recently used library by default. So all you have to do is create the new library. When you Quit iPhoto, it will be set to open that library the next time you launch. If you want to open a different library, you will have to Option-Launch to select it.
    Also, you might like to check out iPhoto Library Manager. It facilitates switching among iPhoto libraries. Plus, it allows you to transfer rolls and albums between libraries while preserving the keywords, ratings, titles, and other database information.
    Regards.

  • When I open a new tab, the brouser goes to a blank page. How can I get it to open to my default home page?

    If I have opened firefox, and I am on my igoogle home page, and if I click the add page button to open a new window, the new pages opens to a blank internet page where I have to type in the new web address I want to go to. This started happening after I added a record button to record internet video and audio. I ended up removing the record program and buttons, but now I cannot figure out how to get a new page to open at my home page address of igoogle.

    Hi,
    You may have to change the setting in the application itself or disable the app in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons''', click '''Extensions''' on the left. If that doesn't work, try to uninstall the application. Please also see [http://funmoods.com/terms this] (the third bulleted point).

  • How can I return my new tab to the default blank page?

    My brother did something which made the new tab page a Yahoo search page. I'd much rather it be the blank page, selecting the address bar. I downloaded the newtabURL add-on and selected the option blank page, highlighting the URL, along with some other stuff and saved it. When I restarted though, Yahoo was still my default new tab option.
    I have no idea where this is coming from, I've checked my add-on list, control panel, and extensions list and cannot find anywhere he set Yahoo to do this.
    Thanks in advance for your help, and please state some of the obvious solutions I might have overlooked.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • How Do I Display Custom Document Properties On the Info - Properties Page

    Hi,
    I want to create a template using Microsoft Word 2010 that has fields similar to the Standard Document Property "Title" that can be used as a fillable form that repeats data throughout the document.  I need a custom document property field
    that you can fill out on the title page and will simultaneously change the same field that is in the header, footer, and file -> info -> properties page. 
    For example, I want to create a document property field called "Product ID #" that shows the title of the property on the file -> info -> properties page as "Product ID #" and the content to show up as the information
    a user entered into the field on the first page.
    Right now I have a standard document property that I am using as a field on the front page for the Title which has user defined content on the front page.  This field has default content I set up to be "Product Specification Template". 
    I inserted this field by using quick parts.  I want to be able to create a field that behaves like this called "Product ID #".  I understand you can create custom form fields that repeat using legacy fields, but I need a way for them
    to show changes instantly after you click away from the field, without having to "update field" where necessary.
    Anyone have any idea how to create custom document properties like this? Or even how to rename standard properties such as "Status" or "Subject"?
    Thanks

    What you're asking can't all be done without a macro. You can easily enough get body content to show in the header & footer via the judicious use of Styles and STYLEREF fields (and the changes are dynamic), but getting that info into the custom
    document property would require a macro. To that end, you might use a content control with a unique Style applied to it for the data input and a ContentControlOnExit macro to update the custom document property.

  • How do I make Organizer and Editor open at the same time?

    I'm new to PSE 10 and want to know how to make Organizer and Editor open at the same time. I can get the Organizer up, but have to pick out a photo and click on Fix: Full Photo Edit to get Editor to open. Is that the only way to do it?
    Thanks,
    K

    Create Desktop shortcuts for the Organizer and the Editor:
    The Editor's executable is:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
    The Organizer's executable is:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 10 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"

  • How to make pdf file auto open with adobe reader after downloaded

    how to make pdf file auto open with adobe reader after downloaded

    I note from your system details that you have the plugin for adobe pdf s so I would have expected the files should open in firefox '''without''' you needing to explicitly download them.
    Once the files are open in firefox, you will also get the option to save them permanently to a location on your computer. If you wish I suppose you could set the file type pdf to be associated with and be opened by firefox instead of with the Adobe Acrobat Reader, but that would just seem to be an additional complexity.

  • How do I need a Document Open password

    How do I obtain a Document Open password

    Hi db61225641,
    Do you have  PDF file that prompts for a password when you try to open it? If so, you will need to contact the person who created the PDF to obtain the password. That is the only way to open the PDF.
    Please let us know if there's anything else we can do for you.
    Best,

  • When opening new tab, how to make me able to type in the adress bar directly without clicking on it? -- (about:config reset and add-on doesn't work)

    Hi all,
    Need a help relating New Tab on Mozilla.
    I want to be able to directly type in the address bar everytime I open a new tab in Mozilla, without clicking anything. To be clearer, it means that everytime I open the new tab, the blinking cursor is already on the address bar.
    What's happening right now is everytime I open new tab, the cursor is not placed anywhere--not on the search bar on the page, not on the address bar. I should put the cursor somewhere to do something.
    I tried using the about:config reset (1) and installing custom new tab (2), but both do not work.
    When I tried the about:config reset the Reset button is not highlighted (I assume it means it's default already), and the Custom New Tab doesn't yield in different result.
    What confuse me is 2 days ago my Mozilla works just fine. Everytime I opened a new tab, the blinking cursor was on the address bar and I was able to type directly.
    Thank you and appreciate the help!!
    Note:
    (1) about:config reset:
    - Type about:config into the address bar and press Enter.
    - To bypass the warning, press the big button labeled "I'll be careful, I promise!".
    - In the search box, paste browser.newtab.url
    - In the search results, right-click browser.newtab.url and choose Reset.
    (2) Custom Add On reset:
    - Install Custom New Tab. = https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/custom-new-tab/
    - Open the Add-ons Manager (Ctrl+Shift+A; Mac: Command+Shift+A), then the Extensions category.
    - Next to Custom New Tab, click the Options button.
    - Set whatever page you want to open in each new tab (about:newtab is the default; about:home is the default home page), and make sure "Place focus in URL bar" is not checked.

    <blockquote>
    ok, as a follow up i'd recommend disabling half of the addons & restarting the browser - if the problem continues disable the other half & continue until you've narrowed it down to the culprit...
    </blockquote>
    Hi Philipp,
    I read the link you copied on the first post and also tried your recommendation above. None seem to work. Even if I disable all add-ons, the problem still persists.
    One other info, this problem seem to appear after I installed several program yesterday. These programs apparently installed other programs that set my homepage and main search engine to a particular website. But I installed all of these programs already. Would that be a cause of the problem?
    Thanks.

  • How can I make multiple PDF links open in the same second tab, instead of a 3rd, 4th etc.

    I am working on a project for my Universities 125 year anniversary.  Essentially I've created a 125 year long digital yearbook, with a link to the University's actual digital yearbook for each individual year.  I'm wondering if there is a way that I can make all of the yearbook links open in the same second page.
    IE:  Main Project open in a window,  when I click the 1939 Yearbook pdf hyperlink, the 1939pdf will open in the second window.  I then want to find a way so that after this, on the main page, I can click the 1940 yearbook pdf link and have the 1940 yearbook load on the second window, replacing the 1939pdf, instead of just opening the 1940pdf on a third new tab/window?
    Note: I have all of the yearbook PDF's online and downloaded, so I can make the hyperlink send you to the site, or do a download style thing. 
    Thank for any help, and if anyone needs further information just ask me!

  • How to make plug ins show up in the filter menu, several Topaz plug ins are in the 13 plug in folder?

    How to make plug ins show up in the filter drop down menu, when several Topaz plug ins have been moved from Elements 11 to the plug in folder for Elements 13?

    Thank you for your advice. I followed your directions, but came up with the same results. However, I did discover that whenever I open up the iPhoto Library that is already existing on my MacBook a certain set of pictures shows up. But then when I open up the iPhoto Library from the Hard drive another set of pictures shows up. BUT not ALL of my pictures are showing up on the iPhoto Library from the hard drive. At least the last two years of pictures are not showing up?! Actually, it appears that all the pictures are there from when I started using iPhoto about 5 years ago up until around the time that I got my iMac desktop computer and started using that (2 years ago). I have noticed that more recent videos I have made are showing up in a folder on the hard drive, but will not appear when I open up iMovie?! Any ideas on how to access my pictures from the last 2 years off of the hard drive???
