Invisible formatting that will not disappear

I am still using the Pages prior to the most recent update, every now and then it holds onto old formatting which I have deleted. There are no invisible characters I can delete but I cannot gte the text to recognise the loss of the old formatting. I have tried deleting the page (the problem was a section with two columns) but no luck. Any ideas out there?

Dear Peter
I did upgrade to Pages 5.2 but it was a nightmare for me, I am in the middle of producing a very complex manual with all kinds of design features that the new Pages could not handle. I had to remove it from my machine before I opened too many documents withi it. I am really sorry about that, it looked so good and yet was so limited in its functionality.
So bakc on good old 4.3 - I have deleted several pages one of which was a separate section divided into two columns.
Most of the text now flows across the page fine until four lines from the end end where the text will not move out of the left hand column. I am asking it to center and it is centering, but as if in the centre of a column. Nothing I have done will encourage it to center in the centre of an A4 portrait page, deleting the page has not worked.
Thanks for your consideration

Dock icons will not disappear when I drag them to desktop or trash

On my MacBook Pro, when I drag an icon from the dock to the desktop or to trash, it bounces back to where it was on the dock. I tried to move Applescript Editor, AppleWorks 6, Keychain Access, Activity Monitor, Quick Time Player and several more icons and they all did the same. Each icon that will not disappear, has a blue dot reflection underneath it.
I moved one of the icons without a blue reflection to the desk top and it did go up in smoke, but as soon as i replaced that icon from finder back to the dock, it also had a blue reflection under it and I could not make it disappear again.
If anyone can help me, I would appreciate it. Thank you so much,
Arudi

You're only supposed to drag icons out of the Dock if you want to remove them from it; running applications won't disappear immediately but may do so when quit.
If you're trying to put icons on the desktop, find the items in the Finder and drag them there with the Option and Command keys held down.

"1F" will not disappear.....

I have what appears to be a "notification" from the facebook app that will not disappear....I constantly have the "1F" symbol on my screen....I have accessed my facebook account both via the facebook BB application and the browser to insure that nothing is marked new or left unread....and yet the indicator remains....Even pulling the battery and restarting did not reset it....any clues?
Is this a problem with the latest version of the FB app? (I am using ver 1.7.0.18)

On my ipad I have an iCloud Back-up alert that will not disppear, I am unable to use the ipad as I press OK and it won't do anything, any ideas???

Try turning off the iPad, or pressing the home button.

I have an itouch that will not let me sign in to my itunes account. The email address that it is associated with is no longer valid. I keep entering the correct password but it says that it is incorrect. I cant get a reset all of my credentials dont work.

I have an itouch that will not let me sign in to my itunes account. The email address that it is associated with is no longer valid. I keep entering the correct password but it says that it is incorrect. I can’t get a reset all of my credentials don’t work. Now all my apps won’t work. it looks like they load for half a second then disappear. What can I do?

- Try contacting iTunes for the password problem:
Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us
- For the other problem you can try a reset. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- The next standard thing to do is to download/install a new app but you cant 'do that.
- Instead, try restoring from backup.

How can I save a page offline? the "complete" option in "save as" produces a folder w/ 36 kb files that will not open.

the "complete" option in "save as" produces a folder w/ 36 kb files that will not open anything - can't I save the page as a single offline file?

This is not really an answer just my comments on your question.
I am sure I recollect efforts being made to get mhtml to work with FF.
Probably the important thing to remember about .mhtml is that if other browsers do support it they may need addons, and may not necessarily render the content correctly/consistently.
There are FF addons designed for archiving webpages, you could try them, but that then assumes the recipient has the same software.
You could simply save the page from FF to your XP pc; then offline open it with and save it using IE, before then emailing using FF, and attaching the .mht or mhtml file that you have now created on your PC.
As an alternative method, in some cases it could be worth considering taking a screen grab of the required page, then sending that to the recipient as a single email attatchment using either a bitmap or jpeg file format for instance.
Something such as an airline booking may be designed with a print option, possibly it could be worthwile looking at sending the print file itself as an email attachment.

Is there any way to keep a photo/text box where you placed it after it is checked as inline, I have text wrapping around many photos-Pages seem to move the photos to the middle of the page and that will not do for my project.

I have a book I want to sell as an EPUB when done...only one problem I got the message when doing so: " floating objects aren't supported in ePub format" So I found out by checking inline format that will work but it moves the text box and photo to where it want to go and not where I want it to be...this will not work so how do I make it stay where I place it and still save without the error of floating object issues.... In addition, when I let it go where it wants to go it lets me stay as an ePub and takes me to iTunes producer ( I have my books on iTunes made with iBooks Author) and is this right...I want to make it ready as an ePub not for Apple but for other eBook readers... Can anyoe help? Thanks

I copied text & paisted it and then draged the 3 photos from the file...then clicked on the photo then clicked the inline boxon tool bar nexed to floating one and that is how I did it
I do not know what you mean "cut & paist" how do I get the photo in from my picter folder if I do not drag it to the page in Pages?
I went to my photo folder and copied a photo and paisted the photo on the top left part of the page and it went there but there was no text to the right of photo...I could crop the photo to what ever size but no text to the right of photo...
This is just too big of a mess of a program as it should be easier then this,,,I hav e 300 photos in this project and would have to re-paist them all...that is nuts...
I see the button to the right of inline and floating that has 6 [lace to have the photo but the text does not float around the photo...
If this is what your talking about this very little freedom in my page layout as I need it to let me place it where I need it to be and the wrap the text...
There has to be an easier way to get my books ready for other formats other that Apple's iPad...iBooks Author was way eisier to make ready for iTunes...Love that program!!!
Want my books for sale on all the other formats and was told by Apple Pages whould do it...
I must be be out to lunch or the designers at Apple are ???

How to delete a in place record that will not undeclare

I have an "in-place" record that will not let me undeclare itself, not sure how it got created but here are some facts about it:
when i first looked at it showed as checked out to (blank). This is different from all of my other in-place records which show as checked out to "System Account". I tried checking it out to me (and it let me) which was strange!! When I
try to undeclare it as a record by using the "compliance details" interface and click the undeclare record link, the reocrd status is changed from "Declared record on 1/17/2011" to "Record". When I go back to the UI it still shows the record with the
little lock on it. If I try to delete the record using the library interface I get the message: "The item cannot be updated because it is locked as read-only". I installed sharepoint manager 2010 (from codeplex) on my server and navigated to this
item in the list and checked out the properties...
in this tool it says "IsReadOnly" = false
if I look at the individual properties of the item i see properties like
ecm_ItmLockHolders value = ecm_InPlaceRecordLock
ecm_ItemDeleteBlockHOlders value= ecm_InPlaceRecordLock
I suspect that this is why ic cannot get rid of the bloody record... i don't know why undeclare doesn't take these locks off (Perhaps because someohw it got checked out to someone other than system). I even tried going iinto the content database
to set the CheckedOutTo column to null. when i did this nothing happened
i tried setting the id equal to the "system account" Id in the content database and the record vanished from the document library (although I can still see it in the content database)...
this is a big mystery for me... all i want is to get rid of a record that somehow has been "corrupted" we have been demoing some third party applications which upload to sharepoint and prerhaps they got the file in this state (its an email .msg format)...
i definitely need to know the recommended way to clean a record that will not let you undeclare it... help! my next course of action will be a ms support call...
krd

the record was declared as part of info mgmt policy (created +1 days, delcare record), then i have another step (declared record + 1 day, start a workflow). I'm trying to delete the record using a workflow (because the OOTB disposition workflow doesn't
work, i'm trying to create my own disposition workflow which undeclares the record first then deletes it). But that is a bit of a side story (I haven't managed to get that working...)

Illustrator CS4 - frequently generates corrupt EPS files that will not parse

I have used many versions of Illustrator prior to and including the CS lines. I am currently running CS4 and this is the first time I have experienced this issue. Approximately half of my EPS formatted illustrator files will not parse. I use Quark Xpress 7 for my layout (never liked any of the Indesign programs). If I try to generate a PDF with my CS4 generated EPS files placed at least 60% of the time the placed file will corrupt the PDF export resulting in no PDF being generated.
Further to this PDF export issue, if I attempt to parse the same EPS file into Photoshop, Photoshop will give me the error message "Could not complete your request because Photoshop was unable to parse the PostScript" and it will abort the attempt to open the file.
Anyone else having Illustrator EPS file issues?
Background info (if needed) Dual 2.0 Ghz, PowerMac G5, 8 gb RAM, running Tiger 10.4.11
I have attached a sample Illustrator file that will not Parse. It will open in Illustrator but not parse into Photoshop or if placed in Quark will not parse and allow for a PDF to be exported.

Thanks for taking the time to write Steve.
I understand that I can drag and drop between programs. Ultimately, when attempting to parse an EPS in photoshop I am merely doing it to confirm that the EPS is indeed corrupt.
As mentioned previously, I predominately use Quark Xpress for my page layout program and until I installed CS4 I have had zero complications with using EPS files. Now I quite commonly can not export PDFs due to corrupt EPS files.
My question to the public is I am alone in this glitch or do others experience the same issue. My first thoughts are that CS4 has a glitch and I should be expecting an update in the near future. But, if I am the only person suffering from this issue than maybe I should be looking at my own software.

Software update notification (red circle) will not disappear even after download

Hi all, just a quick question. I updated my software last night after seeing the red, circular "1" update notification over the settings menu. Everything downloaded normally on both my ipad and iphone, but for some reason, the notification circle will not disappear on the iphone. I have synced it with my laptop, turned it off and on, and even reset all the phone's settings but that pesky red circle remains. I have tried just about everything I can think of outside of restoring it to factory settings and starting over. Honestly, I feel it should not come to this. To have to completely wipe my phone and start over because of something as simple as a software update is madness. I know this is a trivial thing to be so annoyed by but I use my phone often and anything out of the ordinary gets irritating quickly. Any advice or info would be much appreciated. Thanks guys!

The quickest way to try to fix it is to download the Mac OS X 10.6.7 Update Combo and manually install the update. It should fill in any missing gaps. I suggest dragging & dropping the Mac App Store into the Trash before the installation to let the update install a fresh version of the MAS.

I have song in itunes that will not load onto ipod ?

I have a song in itunes that will not download onto ipod, nothing by song in library indicating there is a problem. Can anyone help me ?

Does the song have a tick-in-the-box next to the song title? (You may have selected to Sync only ticked songs and videos to your iPod. This option is on the Device/Sumary pane that appears when you connect the iPod to iTunes.)
Is the song in a format the iPod can play? (Is it the same format as other songs that do Sync to your iPod?)
Have you looked (on the iPod) under songs as well as artists? (It may show up under songs but not under artists.)
Try the Search facility on the iPod and see if it shows up that way.

I need help to convert photos in the .swf format to a format that will open on iOS

I need help converting photos in the .swf format to a format that will work on my Mac. Thanks

SWF is a Flash file that should be able to be opened with your web browser on your Mac. Probably not on iOS though.
You will likely need to find the source file for the application that created the SWF and the image will be in that. You could then export/extract the image and have it as a stand alone file.
It does look like there are applications that can do what you are looking for though: https://www.google.com/search?q=SWF+to+JPG

Marketing/Sales Online Classifications will not disappear

Whilst making updates to Classifications, we noticed that a classification category entitled 'Product Event Role' will not disappear from the Classification Categories Lookup, even though all associated codes have been End Dated and Disabled.
Our understanding is that Classification Categories should disappear from the LOV if there are no enabled Classification Codes associated to them. We have not encountered this issue end dating Class Categories and Codes before.
Path to reproduce:
Contact Management Online User -> Find a Person Record -> Click on the Classifications link in the left hand side tool bar.
In the Categories drop down you will see the Role in product or event decision making (which is the meaning for Product Event Role) and it should not be there as there is no Active Class Codes.
Anybody know why i can't get rid of this class category (i have no trouble with other ones).

Is the mouse connected directly to the Mac Pro or a third party hub?
And have you tried a different USB port?
