InD4 - Won't let me put text up to the page edge - need to apply a header! Help!

I am trying to put a text box at the top of my document to use as a header - something I've done hundreds of times before.  But, this time, when I add a text box, and add text, it's like there's an invisible object there with a text wrap applied, and it won't let me put my text to the top of the page.
For info: the text box options are set to align text at the top, and to ignore text wrap on any other objects.  I've tried selecting all to see if there was something there that i was missing and needed to delete - no luck.  Even tried shutting down InDesign, reopening, and starting a new document - it does the same thing on the new document.
It's a space about an inch wide, that extends from one side of the page to the other - but just on the top - I can place text all the way to the edge of the page on the sides and bottom, no problem.  HELP!!!!

My guess is that you have aligned your text to document grid... and your grid starst a little bit below the top of your page.... If that´s the case, you have two options to solve your problem:
1) adjust your grid´s starting point from Preferences > Grids
2) Change your paragraph style setting Align text to Grid to None, you find it at Indents and Spacing tab (or alternatively you can change it locally from control panel as well)

  • Why when i insert a table it won't let me put something next to the table?

    when i insert a table it only lets me put something under the table intead of beside it.

    In DWCC...
    Click the table in Design View so the whole thing is highlighted
    In the Properties window, click the CSS button
    Click Edit Rule
    In the CSS Designer, under Properties, click the Layout button
    Scroll down to Float and choose left or right
    Then do the same for any element you want to appear next to the table.
    You can also edit the css manually by adding the following to the <style> tagset in the <head> of your page or by adding it to an external .css file...
    table {float:right;}
    You may want to give the table an id in your html and target that instead, to ensure all of your tables don't start floating. That would look like this in your css (change tableid to any unique id you want)...
    #tableid {float:right;}
    and in your html you would have this...
    <table id="tableid">

    Hi, CrystalLuna.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    It would need a little clarification on this issue to provide a better answer.  However, if your device will not turn on or is unresponsive, take a look at the troubleshooting steps in the article below.  
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on
    If your device will power on but the display is blank, Screen Curtain may be enabled.  Take a look at the steps in the article below to disable this feature.  
    Turn the screen curtain on or off. Triple-tap with three fingers. When the screen curtain is on, the screen contents are active even though the display is turned off.

  • Just switched from IE, imported my favorites okay, but Firefox won't let me put new bookmarks in the folders. When I select "choose", it shoes no folders. Why?

    Firefox doesn't seem to recognize the favorites folders I imported from IE. I can't save a bookmark in any folder I already had when I changed to FF. When I select "choose", my only choices are Bookmark Toolbar, Bookmark Menu or Unsorted Bookmarks. I badly need to put bookmarks in my imported folders.

    [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Bookmarks] <br />
    '''All''' bookmarks are in one of those 3 main folders. The bookmarks and folders that were imported from IE should be in the '''Bookmarks Menu''' folder.
    There should be two different "down arrow" buttons to the right of the folder name ''(the appearance differs by operating system - IMO it's the best on WinXP)'', the left one allows you to select one of those 3 main folders, and the one on the right allows you to see the folders in the main folder that is selected. <br />''A silly interface, IMO, but it's been that way through 3 major version releases, so it has been consistent in it's lack intuitiveness.''
    You might want to look at the Add Bookmark Here ² extension - that type of "Add Bookmark" window should have been the default in Firefox 3.o and newer versions: <br />

  • HELP! iTunes won't let me put music on my iPod

    I need help, whenever i try to transfer my music on to my iPod, for itunes, it won't let me put it on my iPod.
    I NEED HELP!!!!!

    Okay, I see.
    That's most likely because you are automatically syncing your iPod.
    If you click on your iPod in the Source List of iTunes, and go to the "Music" tab, you are probably selected for "Sync", and either selected playlists, or all songs.
    On the Syncing optoin, you cannot drag files to your iPod without setting up your iPod for manually managing, perhaps just temporarily.
    See this for details on manually managing your iPod:

  • HT4484 when i go to update apps the previous owners apple id is stuck in the id box and it won't let me put mine in.. PLEASE HELP! LOL

    when i go to update apps the previous owners apple id is stuck in the id box and it won't let me put mine in.. PLEASE HELP! LOL

    Apple says that the Mac was supposed to be erased and taken back to the most recent version of OS X with which it shipped. You should not have any of the previous owner's apps. That violates the Terms of Use for Mac App Store apps.

  • The password for wireless network was changed.  Airport keeps trying to sign in automatically with old password and won't let me put in new password. Any ideas?

    The password for wireless network was changed.  Airport keeps trying to sign in automatically with old password and won't let me put in new password. Any ideas?

    You really should change both the wireless network name and password to avoid potential conflicts with the old and new settings.
    Suggest you give that a try.

  • Contribute CS3 won't let me format text

    Contribute suddenly won’t let me format text (bold,
    underline, etc.). Neither shortcut keys, nor buttons, nor menu
    selections work. The only way I can make something bold, for
    example, is to copy and paste text that is currently bolded in
    another program.

  • My new iPhone 5 will connect to iTunes, but won't let me put music or pictures onto it...

    My new iPhone 5 shows up in iTunes, but won't let me put pictures or music onto my phone. They are both under the same iTunes account and it let me transfer stuff onto my old iPhone 4 before. I don't know why it won't let me now. Both are updated also... Please help!!

    Thank you so much! I can't believe I didn't think to check that. I synced it to iTunes, but I didn't think to see if those were checked or not and they weren't. I checked them, and resynced and its working perfectly. Thanks so much!!!

  • IPod Touch 5th gen won't let me put songs on it?

    Soo I bought a new iPod the other day and I tried downloading my purchased songs onto it from the iTunes on it and it said they were downloading....but when I go to my music nothing is there. I have tried doing it at least five times and nothing shows up. It also won't let me put songs from my iTunes on the computer on it. It just doesn't show up on my iPod. When I go on iTunes and plug in my iPod it says I have like over 400 songs on it...but like I said, when I go to music on my iPod...there's nothing. Has this happened to anyone else? Can anyone help?
    Thanks!

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                             
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
