In Pages, in a document I transferred from airsharing (from my mac) some text cannot be edited

as : bold, italic, underlined. It's all the same font though, in the same document, and some parts can be edited some cannot. Any idea please?

Where to begin... and why would you ask here? (workstation owners)
Places I can think to try, after google of course....

  • I'm trying to save a page as a document? (to b saved on my mac) i did it once b 4 but dont quite remember how i did it. thanks.

    there's a particular video that i want saved as a document so i can view easily when I'm ready without visiting the website & searching 4 it or bookmarking it & risk my daughter viewing the video. thanks in advance I love Firefox!

    Unfortunately iWeb cannot read or import previously published files, only generate them.  You'll have to recreate your site from scratch.
    However, Chapter 2.3 on the iWeb FAQ.org site has tips on using some of the existing files, image, audio, video, etc., from the published site in the recreation of the site.

  • Duplicate a Text Field on Every Page of a Document?

    Today I wrote my first vb.net/adobe app.  I managed to open the pdf doc in adobe and create a named text field.  I managed to insert a java script that gets the current date when the document is open and updates the text field.  I would like to duplicate the text field on all pages of the document.  Manually, I can right click on a text field and select duplicate.  I don't see a property or method that allows me to program this.  The field property "page" appears to be read only.  any help would be appreciated.  thanks.
    page
    The page number or an array of page numbers of a field. If the field has only one appearance in the document, the page property returns an integer representing the 0-based page number of the page on which the field appears. If the field has multiple appearances, it returns an array of integers, each member of which is a 0-based page number of an appearance of the field. The order in which the page numbers appear in the array is determined by the order in which the individual widgets of this field were created (and is unaffected by tab-order). If an appearance of the field is on a hidden template page, page returns a value of -1 for that appearance.
    TypeInteger | ArrayAccessRFieldsallExample 1Determine whether a particular field appears on one page, or more than one page.var f = this.getField("myField");
    if (typeof f.page == "number")
    console.println("This field only occurs once on page " + f.page);
    else
    console.println("This field occurs " + f.page.length + " times);

    I also tried the brute force method of moving from page to page and creating a text field on each page.   I used pageNum to changes the page, but, adobe didn't seem to recognize that.  I saw the page change on the screen, but, all of the textfields were created on the first page!

  • I transferred a pages file from ipad to mac (also pages) via email for editing. However received message that cannot save edited document to the mac because "trial period has expired for iwork"! I have purchased pages for both machines separately. Ideas?

    I transferred a pages file from ipad to mac (also pages) via email for editing. It opened normally. However, after editing, received message that cannot save edited document to the mac because "trial period has expired for iwork"! I have purchased pages for both machines separately and presumed they would work without a hitch. Am I missing something?

    It used to be that to update the trial to the licensed version with the box, you just inserted the DVD & ran the installer to convert the trial to licensed. This changed with Snow Leopard. You now need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user.
    Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his iDisk in For_iWork > iWork '09 > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

  • Pages will no longer let me open files that I have previously downloaded, worked on and then saved on my mac. However it will let me open pages documents that I have started from new. I need the other documents to open and can't figure it out. PLEASE

    Pages will no longer let me open files that I have previously downloaded, worked on and then saved on my mac. However it will let me open pages documents that I have started from new. I need the other documents to open and can't figure it out. PLEASE

    I just got my mac a month ago so go easy on me but I was just working with the pages that was already on it, and then today I know it updated, and now I am unable to open a lot of my documents!:(  Idk what you mean by the icloud version lol sorry! As for the version, when I open pages from my apps and click 'about' it says version 5.1? And when I open the document it just goes grey and kind of blinks and doesnt open? No error message or any indication of why it will not open now when I for sure have opened it in the past! Andddd for the OS X I think it is 10.9.1 ??

  • How can I remove the page number from the first page of the document that is the cover page?

    How can I remove the page number from the first page of the document that is the cover page?

    If you open the Pages panel, (Window>Pages) you will see thumbnails of your master pages and your document pages. In new documents, there is usually a master called A-Master and one called None. If you drag the thumbnail of the None master onto the thumbnail of a document page, it will apply that master to that page. Presumably, you have made your page numbers on A-Master, so this will usually do the trick. If you have elements on A-Master that you need on the first page, but just not the page number, you can duplicate A-Master (which, by default will give you B-Master, but you can change the names if you like) and remove the page number on the duplicate and apply that to the document page.
    It might also be worth noting that you can apply master pages in the fly-out of the Pages panel. Go to the fly-out triangle and go down to Apply Master to Pages…, then select a master to apply and the range of pages (1-8 will give you all 8, 1, 3, 5, 7 will be the odds, 1-3, 4, 6-8 if you want continuous ranges and individual pages).

  • In the Finder, how do you select Pages '09 from Pages 5.0 documents

    Pages 5.0 came pre-installed on my new iMac / Mavericks computer. Before that I had  worked with Word for Mac. After a while I discovered the now well-known flaws in Pages 5.0 . I read discussions on the internet from which I concluded I could better continue with Pages ’09 which I had available from another (legal) source but never used.
    Pages ’09 appears to work fine for me but Pages 5.0 keeps interfering as being the standard program designated to open “all documents of this type” (Get Info / Command I). Thus, documents made and saved in Pages ’09, may be inadvertently saved in Pages 5.0. At least, this is what I think is happening. You cannot see which is which since both versions have the extension “pages”.
    I have a saved-search result comprising all files with the “pages” extension and I want to select all Pages 5.0 documents therein and change the whole lot, if possible with one key stroke, to show that “all documents of this type” must be opened in Pages ’09. I cannot find the way to work this out. Who helps?

    My personal experience is as follows:
       tag:Blue will find every document that has a blue tag, regardless of tag name.
       tag:Pages '09 will find only documents with this specific tag name.
    The exception to the second example is when you have tagged a few files with a specific tag name, then revisit the Finder Preferences and decide to change the tag name in place. This forces the tag name to update to the new name on all of the files bearing the prior tag name, and these will be found in the new tag name search.
    Tag colors but not tag names are available in Finder views of documents.
    You can even create Finder Smart Folders that park in the left column of your Finder window. These have special search criteria built in such as all documents that have a tag containing the string, “Pages '09.” When you click on this Smart Folder, a Finder window appears with all of your Pages '09 documents shown, providing they are appropriately tagged beforehand. You would need to first enable the tag attribute.
    OS X Mavericks: Create or Modify a Smart Folder
    I type just an arbitrary letter to trigger the sub-toolbar in step 3. I then click the + symbol, and set Kind is document. I click the + symbol again, and this time, I ignore Last opened date and select Other... from the bottom of that selection list. Scroll down until you find the attribute Tags and then on the right, select it, so it will show in the menu. Click Ok. Now, click on the Last opened date and instead choose Tags matches Pages '09. Now, proceed with step 6. Change the name from Searching "your login directory" to an appropriate string that will fit in the left column of your Finder window, e.g. Pages 09 docs.
    The application version that created the document is not stored in the Pages documents, and Apple has chosen to use the .pages extension, regardless of compatibility or application version. This means that neither Finder nor human eye can discern the version of Pages that created the document. The only way off that island is programmatically checking the document contents which differs slightly between Pages ’08, ’09, and v5.

    The Table of Contents picks up selected named Styles in the text like Head 1, 2 etc.
    Have you actually applied the styles?

  • HT4356 When printing from the iPad how to control how many pages of the document to print?

    When printing from the iPad, how to control how. Any pages of the document to print?

    You got me curious (even though I've never used coupons.com, and I have an AirPrint printer).  So I checked out coupons.com in the iTunes Store and found the following two reviews that I think explain everything:
    Based on the above, my conclusion is coupons.com is set up to print on wireless HP printers from an iPad.  You could print to a non-AirPrint HP printer as well using an app from the iTunes Store.  But the non-AirPrint printers do offer considerably less compatibility with Apple's iPad applications than the AirPrint ones do.  For example, in the Epson case, non-AirPrint Epsons can print from Safari but not from email.

  • When I try to open a document from my file on Mac OS X the following message appears, with the Bluetooth logo: 'SELECT A BLUETOOTH DEVICE ....Select a device to send file ...' I then have to go to the source of the document, e.g. Pages, to open the file.

    When I try to open a document from my file on Mac OS X the following message appears, with the Bluetooth logo: 'SELECT A BLUETOOTH DEVICE ....Select a device to send file ...' I then have to go to the source of the document, (e.g. Pages), to open the file. Please could someone help?

    The Get Info dialog should look something like this:
    The "Change All" button should be at the bottom of the "Open With" section.  This is how it appears in Snow Leopard.  Other OSX versions many be slightly different.
    If something is changing the setting back to something else you may have a deeper problem than I am able to help you with.  What is appearing in the Open with area before you correct it?
    If the problem is still persisting, instead of double clicking on the file to open it, try right or control clicking and then select Open With and choose the proper app from the list.

  • Every time I add a page to my documents, my buttons reset. How can I prevent this from happening?

    I am using InDesign CS5. I have a very large document (698 pages) that has several buttons saved on each page.
    I used the automated Table of Contents feature to create all of the destinations. Using the buttons dialog box, I select the specific page the document needs to go to.
    I need to add pages to this document, but every time I add a page, all of the bookmarks default to the very first link in the list. How can I get prevent this from happening?
    If I can't stop this from happening because I used the TOC feature to create the destinations, how can I quickly and easily move forward to add pages to the document. These pages will be inserted throughout the document.
    Thank you.

    Put on shoe.
    Take one shoe-lace in each hand.
    Lay them across each other.
    Then place one of them under the first.
    You now have the first fasting.
    To make the loops, again take each shoe-lace in each hand.
    Fold one of them double into a loop and hold the loop with the other hand.
    Take the second shoe-lace and fold it around the loop and insert the second loop in the space you just created under the first loop.
    Fasten the loops by dragging them in opposite directions.
    How did I do? Clear enough? (English is not my first language by the way).
