How to move page in a section

Hi,
I use Pages '09 on Lion.
I have a section in my document (seen by the yellow line around it) with several pages.
I just can't find how to move, or better rearrange the page order in a section. Let's say I just want page 8 in my document move up and be page 5.
How can I do this?
Thanks.
Andre

You are using the Word processor document in Pages and you can't move the pages but you can move sections.Normally in a WP document you move the content and not the pages so
Select the content you want to move
Either cut it out ( Cmd + X) and paste it where you want it. The text after where you insert the insertion point will move down when you paste the text. OR
Place the the cursor over the selection and press the mouse button and hold it down a while and start dragging. The selection will now move with the cursors. Move it to where you want it. You should be able to see a small black vertical line whch you place where the text shall start.

How to move pages between documents WITHOUT elements shifting

Hi everyone! My team members and I are so frustrated over what I think should be a really simple issue: copying/moving/dragging pages between documents and NOTHING CHANGING.
Whenever we move pages between documents (which we have to do on a monthly basis - moving content into client branded files), at least ONE thing will shift and it usually has to do with overset text and/or text wrap. We have googled our brains out. We've tried everything on this list How-To: 10 Techniques for Copying Pages Between InDesign Documents | CreativePro.com and in the various Lynda tutorials we've looked at. We have combined our powers and still can not solve this problem so now I come to you, hoping that you can please please please help us figure out this issue before one of us throws a computer out the window.
We have this one document. And this is what one of the problem pages looks like. Everything is on one layer. (look at the section marked 5)
Then I move the pages (copy/paste the content; drag and drop the pages; etc.) into the destination document so we can apply branding.
AND THIS HAPPENS.
WHY does this text suddenly become overset?
The preferences of both documents are IDENTICAL. In fact, Document B was originally created from Document A.
AND FUN FYI: I took Document A and Saved As a new name. Opened it the new name. And tried moving the pages into the newly named document -- and the SAME EXACT THING HAPPENED.
I am going to bash my head into a wall. Can someone please shed some light on this? Have you seen this before? How do we fix it??

Doesn't saving as IDML lose some of the properties if you use any shadow or other effects?
That's not something that I have ever heard, but since I haven't heard everything, I suppose it's possible. What you may be thinking of is that some people use idml to migrate a file to a lower version, and if that lower version lacks a feature of the version that created the file, you will either lose or modify the way that that feature worked in the original. I don't think that even in that scenario that a feature that was present in both versions would go away just because it took a trip through idml to get to an earlier version. And if idml botched shadow or effects, nobody would use it, and I don't think Adobe would have it.

If we had just done a final Save As on the Document A before giving it to the team member who's going to be copying the content into Document B, does that not count as doing a Save As? You mean the minute it's freshly opened try doing another Save As? (P.S. Edit: Just tried this. Didn't change what happened. )
The thing that Save-As does is remove little bits of data associated with undos that a normal Save retains. Sometimes this data can lead to problems, so any time you do it, it will help, but if you do it at stage 37 and you hand off at stage 38, you will have cleared out most all of anything that may have built up over time. I don't want to give the impression that it is required, but it certainly doesn't hurt, and is probably a good idea to Save-As periodically.

You should ask in the Reader forum. But my guess is that Reader there is nothing you can do. Acrobat allows you to move pages around, but not Reader.

Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Archive/trash Pages 5, after Exporting your files to Pages '09, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

How to move page from One workspace to another workspace

I have a production web site in one workspace and a development web site in another workspace. I want to move a page(not all) from production workspace to development workspace. How to achieve it?
Thanks for your help.

Hi Scott,
I have the same issue, and I can answer your questions.
1. I'm Bill and my handle is wcmanes
2. I have APEX 3.0 in both dev and prod database.
3. Their are two different databases with a workspace in each.
Some additional info:
The workspace names are the same in each database
The application names and ID are the same
The production app was created as a full export/import of dev app
Not I want to move one modified page from dev to prod. I used the page export from the dev page. When I try to import the file in the production workspace, I get the error message:
Logged Into Workspace: Q2DW_RPT
Export File Workspace ID: 938732400343783
Export File Application: 101

Page Origin: This page was exported from a different application or from an application in different workspace. Page cannot be installed in this application.
Thanks,

How to move pages up/down

Is there a key combination that will allow me to move up or down a page at a time?

Olemacr wrote:
Thanks for the reply but nothing happens on my iMac using those keys.
There are global shortcuts, which should work in all apps; there are Cocoa text engine shortcuts, which should work in all apps which use the Cocoa text engine; and there are app shortcuts. How a specific app responds to a command such as Page Up is not necessarily under the OS control.
The shortcuts indicated by Don Archibald are correct. How any specific app responds is another matter. So tell us exactly what app (and version) you are using and maybe we'll be able to help.
I did find that on my MBP fn and up or down arrows did move a page at a time
For some keys, and for obvious reasons, on the MBP fn is similar to control.

HOw to move pages around in a book

I've created a book but now I want to re-order some of the pages - I can't seem to do this with drag and drop or cut and paste. Any ideas?

On the left side of the browser at the top of the iPhoto window you will see two symbols. The top one looks like a sheet of paper with the corner folded down, the bottom looks like multiple sheets/cards. If you click on the top symbol, you will view thumbnails of the pages in the book; the bottom gives you photos. At the bottom left of the window, there are two buttons above the word "view". Clicking on one button versus the other changes the window to view either one or two pages. This also affects whether or not the pages are locked together in the browser. When you are in page view, you can drag and drop pages in the browser to create the order you wish.
I hope this helps.

I have learned to love PAGES, but I can't figure out how "sections" get linked together and how to unlink them so I can move pages or delete pages with a whole bunch of pages (a section) going away.

I have learned to love the PAGES program but I will add a new "section" or page to it and then when I look at thumbnails and try to move pages around or delete pages, it treats them as a section of many pages and will only delete several of them together or will add extra blank pages that I don't need. It is very frustrating but must be something I am doing to cause this.

It is the '09 version. I went on the boards and found out that by inserting a page break after each page as I go, I can make each page act individually instead of as a group. Then I can move pages around or delete them through thumbnails. The online manual didn't really help with how to avoid having them act as a group.
A Page Break pushes the next text to the next page, it is still part of the same section.
You need to insert a Section Break.

How do I remove or delete a page from a Section?

How do I remove or delete a page from a Section in Pages?

The blank page is not blank, there is something on it like a return or word space, or a page break or return on the previous page that forces over to the "blank" page.
Menu > View > Show Invisibles and delete it.
Think of a word processing document like a scroll which you view through a set of frames (the pages).
The scroll is filled from the front and flows through as many pages as necessary to accomodate the text in the main text area between the margins.
Pages has one quirk however which catches out many users. Floating objects stay on their absolute page, the one where they were placed. If that page no longer exists because the text no longer flows that far, the floating objects are no longer visible. They are still in the document but off the end page, much like objects moved completely off the page to the right or down are still there but not visible.
So if you want to make sure floating objects are entirely removed from the document delete, or move, those first, then select the text on that page by dragging over it or shift clicking from top to bottom and hit delete.

Need to move pages and sections from one doc to another

I have a long document loaded with graphics. I need to repurpose pages and sections from that document and use them in another document.
How do I move a section or page from one to another. A simple copy and paste doesn't seem to be the answer since it copies only the text, not the illustrations and format.
Also, it would help if I could unlock sections - is that possible and how do I do it?

You will have to do it manually, but you can do it whole sections at a time. Open your files & show thumbnails. Sections have a yellow border around all of the pages in that section. Now click on the page in the thumbnail pane & copy. If the file is more than one page & you only want one, you'll need to insert a section break to separate the pages. Then go to your other file & paste. The whole copied page will be pasted in. I found that pasting in the body of the target document only pasted the text but, if I clicked in the thumbnail area of the target document & pasted, I got both text & graphics. Repeat with another section. Styles will copy over with the sections but headers & footers will not.

How to Move a Video File from Movie Section to "TV Shows" Section

How do change the sequence of pages in a PDF file. Need to move page 3 to 12

How do I change the page sequence in a document. eg Want to move page 3 to 12

Hi leoniep,
To reorder pages in a PDF, you need to use Acrobat (you can drag the page thumbnails to rearrange the pages). If you don't have Acrobat, you're welcome to try it for free for 30 days. See http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html for more information.
Best,
Sara
