I can't delete just one symbol in Pages

When I place a marker on the right of a symbol I want to delete and then press Delete an entire word is being deleted. Also when I want to mark just one or several symbols an entire word is being marked as well. I'm using the template "Storyboards". I feel it's going to occupy a big portion of my time trying to figure out on my own how to make this to act as I want it to, so I'd be grateful if you told how to delete characters one by one.
Pages 9.1
Thanks,
I.S.

It might be worth checking the User Guide section on Placeholder Text which begins:
Using Placeholder Text
Templates contain placeholder text, which shows you what text will look like and where it will be placed in the finished document. Most placeholder text appears in Latin (for example, lorem ipsum) in the document body, text boxes, headers, and elsewhere. Other predefined text, such as the title of a newsletter, appears in the language you’re using.
You click to select the placeholder text and then type your own text to replace it. The text you type keeps the same style and formatting as the placeholder text. If you don’t want to use the style and size of fonts the placeholder text uses, you can change the selected text by clicking the font family and font size controls in the format bar.
Here are ways to work with placeholder text:

How can I delete just one little picture from my new ipad2 ?

This is my 1st Apple product an Ipad2. How in the world do you delete just one picture at a time??
Thank you in advance.

Only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/wesites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view. Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by removing them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing.

Can't delete just one or some of missed/recent calls ?

Am I correct that you can only delete all your recent or missed calls? Can't find any way to just delete one or some.

Yes, you are correct.

How to delete just one page in Pages 4.3

Hello I am having an issue with trying to delete just one page out of the 47 pages that I have created.
If I try to delete page 12 it will delete 12-47 instead of just page 12.
I also cant seem to move or adjust the yellow box in thumnails in order to select just one page. It has them all selected.
Another issue is when i try to delete a large text box, which i created to make a frame on my page. It will also delete all the pages after it. So its making it very difficut to make any changes.
I have searched through many forums and havent had any luck by using their methods.

Forget about the page thumbnails.
Let's say that page 12 is in the middle of a section and you want to delete it.
On page 12, in the actual document, not the thumbnails, click somewhere in the first line of text so that the cursor appears. Use the left arrow key to move the cursor until it is just before the first letter on the line. Now, from the Insert menu, insert a Section Break (not a section).
On page 13, do the same thing; i.e. insert a Section Break before the first character.
Now you can go to the thumbnails, click on the Page 12 thumbnail and it will be a section all by itself. Click the Delete key.
(I am sort of assuming that there are no invisible characters before the first one that you see, but if there are, you obviously have to get before them too.)

How do I delete just one season of a tv show on iPad 2 running iOS 7?

Hi, since upgrading to iOS 7, I've been having two problems with the video app. The first, and more minor problem is that if I tab out of the video app while watching a show, and then tab back in, it doesn't open to the show I was watching, but rather to the 'home page' of the video app, so that I need to navigate back to the episode I'm watching.
The second, much more annoying issue, is that a can no longer seem to delete just one season of a tv show. If I go to the TV section of the video app, I can press the 'Edit' button and remove an entire tv show (all the seasons on my iPad). I can also go into a season and delete episodes individually by swiping left to right (though this seems to make my app crash back to the home screen - a third issue!). However, on the show's page in the video app (where all the downloaded seasons are listed) I can't find a way to delete just the one season. There is no 'Edit' button that I can see on the page, and swiping left to right does nothing.
Any help on this (these) issue(s) would be much appreciated!

Ok this is even harder than I first realised! If multiple seasons of one show are downloaded to the iPad and I click on the 'edit' button, the show with multiple seasons can't be deleted at all. No cross appears in the top left corner of the show's icon.

How can i print just one page of photo book without printing the entire book

how can i print just one page of photo book without printing the entire book

Jim,
Take heart. We can help.
First turn on page view so you can see how the content of your sheet fits on the page(s). A Numbers document contains sheets (listed on the left) which in turn contain tables, charts, text, and graphics. Select the sheet you want to print on the left, then enable page view by selecting the menu item:
"View > Show Print View":
Now you should see your content and how it fits on one, or more, pages. If thie content is too big for one page use the controls and the bottom left of the window to expose the sheet controls:
Here a table is too big to fit on one page:
slide the "Content Scale" slider so the content fits:

I have a Vista operating system with 2 users. Somehow I got two diffent libraries for the users. How can I delete the one and then access the correct library on the other users profile?

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

How can I delete only one part of my xml file?

Hello,
I stored more than 100 users in only one xmltype column. For instance
Create table agro(users XMLTYPE);
... and I inserted all users inside
INSERT INTO agro values(XMLTYPE
('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<authentication><users><user>
<name>cocoon</name>
<password>cocoon</password>
<role>admin</role>
<title>Mr.</title>
<firstname>Walter</firstname>
<lastname>Cocoon</lastname>
<company />
<street />
<zipcode />
<city />
<country>DE</country>
<phone />
<fax />
<email />
<bankid />
<bankname />
<accountid />
</user>
... another user, etc.
</users></authentication>'));
Now I tried to delete only one part of this file. For example all persons with the name"cocoon".
I used for this target the following statement:
DELETE FROM agro agro
WHERE agro.users.extract('authentication/users/user/text()').getStringVal()= 'cocoon';
When I execute this statement, Oracle DB delete all users and not only with the name "Cocoon".
How can I delete only one part of my xml file?

This the expected behavoir. You uploaded a document containing multiple users and then asked XML DB to delete any documnet that contained a user with the name in question. The problem here is that you are creating a mega document that contains an aggregation of user documents but then trying to work with individual user documents. This is a bad idea.
In general XML does not understand the concept of a collection of documents. It can only operate on one document at a time. Hence the tendancy to aggregate individual documents into a single larger document. Once you have an XML database, you can perform operations on collections of document, as easily as you can perform operations on individual documents, so the need to aggregate the individual documents together disappears.
If you store each user document as a seperate document then your delete will work as expected.

My new I5 uploaded doubleded all the songs from my library! Please, can somebody help me showing how can I delete just the songs that was doubled?

Hi there everybody,
My new Iphone 5 uploaded doubleded all the songs from my library! Please, can somebody help me showing how can I delete just the songs that was doubled?
Some help will be greatly appreciate.
Thanks much!

When you say "account," do you mean your iTunes library, because your iTunes library is what is on your computer? Your iTunes library does not have an email address. An account that is related to iTunes is your Apple ID (which is an email address) and you use it as your user name to sign in to the iTunes Store, to make purchases. Changing your Apple ID will not make songs disappear from your computer's iTunes library.
If you had an Apple ID and used it to make song purchases from the iTunes Store, and then started using a different Apple ID, you should be able to re-download the songs purchased with the old Apple ID. In iTunes, sign in to the iTunes Store using your OLD Apple ID (and password). That may not be your current email address, but Apple uses it as your user name, so it does not matter.
On the iTunes Store Home screen, click on Purchased under QUICK LINKS. This takes you do the Purchased screen, where you can re-download previous song purchases (for that Apple ID) at no cost.
NOTE: If those song purchases are from more than a few years ago, you may also need to authorize your computer to play (and sync) songs for your old Apple ID.
For songs that were not purchased from the iTunes Store, if they are also gone, you cannot get them back unless you have a backup (or they are still loaded on your old iPod).
If that's not what you mean by "changed the email address on my account," please post back with more details.

How can I publish just one page at a time?

I switched to a new computer, so I moved the domain file. When I open iWeb, all the pages are there. I made one small change, and only want to update the one page, but since it's on a new computer, all the pages are red and I can't publish just one page - every time I try, iWeb tries to publish all the pages, and it errors out every time. Can anyone tell me how to make it publish just one page at time in spite of the fact that all the pages in the sidebar are red? The only reason I can think for the error message is that there's too much content to do it all at once.

Yes. If you are uploading to a server and not MobileMe, then just select the option publish to a local folder.
When you have done this, then use Cyberduck or Transmit and upload just the one page from your site folder to your server, plus it's resultant file. So if you just want to upload a Welcome page for example, use Cyberduck to upload just the Welcome.html page and the Welcome files to your server and into your root folder on your server, which would be either a public_html folder, a www or htdocs folder.

Can i email just one page from my spreadsheet?

Can I email just one page (tab) from my spreadsheet?

Only if you copy and past it into the email (and of course it would no longer be a spreadsheet, just text). You can only send files as an attachment not portions of files. you could copy the contents oif the tab into a new file and save it.

Trying to update my apps but it keeps saying update my credit card,I don't want to use a credit card and I can't delete the one that's on my account

If you're positive the information is correct, ask the issuing bank why the transaction is being rejected.
You're getting this error because the store can not authorize the card with your bank.

Can You Lock Just One Page but not whole site?

I'm sure this was answered -- but now I cannot find it in the topic list.
I want a particular site to be open to one and all. But I want to lock just one page on that site -- which would require a user name and password. My attempts so far end up locking the entire site.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks,
Richard.
Power Book G4 Mac OS X (10.4.2)

if you search this forum for "password one page" you will find some previous posts.
There is one that mentions creating a second one page site and passwording it with a hyperlink in the first site. Might be the way to go. I don't believe you can currently password just one page.
good luck
