Is there Cap lock shift lock in Pages for iPad?

Using pages for iPad is there cap lock/shift lock function. It is very difficult to do headings or posters without this function.

Go to Settings > General > Keyboard and turn Enable Caps Lock to On. When Enable Caps lock is On then double-tapping the shift key will lock it down (it turns all blue). YOU CAN THEN TYPE ALL CAPS,

Is there an alpha order function in Pages for iPad?

I have a folder inside Pages for iPad which has about 20 docs inside it. I would like to put these files in alpha order by their title. Is that possible? If not, can I manually sort the files inside the folder? I can get the files to move, but I can't get the file to hold it's new position. Thanks for your help. Jo

Caps lock in pages on ipad

My ipad will only type in caps in pages. I have cap locks off in my settings. Regardless of pushing shift, it continues to type in caps. I can type in other apps without caps (as I am doing now) but pages will only type in caps. How do I fix this?

Unless you are inadvertently using some particular style that you created in Pages, and using it in every document in Pages... which IMO is very unlikely, try closing Pages and reboot the iPad.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Are there any problems saving files in Pages for iPad?

I have a new iPad, and I need to chose a wordprocessing App. Friends have advised me that there may be a difficulty saving files from Pages. If so then is there a recommendation for a different wordprocessing App ?

I use Pages every day on my iPad. I have had great success with it.
I use it with iCloud, and I use it on my Mac. I have created documents on the Mac, saved them to iCloud, opened them on the iPad, edited them there, saved that back to iCloud, opened them in the IOS Beta in iCloud.com, downloaded them to my Mac at work, and so on and so on...
I have used Pages every way that you can possibly use it with iCloud, iCloud.com, and locally on my Macs. No problems whatsoever.
Pages documents are saved automatically on the iPad as are all documents in all apps - at least as afar as I know. You do not have to actually save them on your own... no Save As... no Save commands at all in tha app. They are saved automatically with the last set of edits that you make in place.

Will there be an update in Pages for ipad that will allow for sub scripts and superscripts

I am a chemistry professor who loves to work on the ipad. The problem I have is that the mathematics I use and chemical equations is use in my writings need both super scripts and subscripts. I would love to use my ipad for this, but presently, the only way I can do this is with a third party app that allows me to create the formulas and the paste them in the document I am working on. Will there be an update to Pages for ipad that will allow subscripts and super scripts. I would love to move away from my Office 2010, but the support is not there yet.

We cannot speculate about future Apple products. We know no more about this than you do at this time.
You can suggest it to Apple at Apple Feedback.

Is there a comment feature in Pages for iPad?

Hey all you iPad owners. Is there a comment feature in Pages for iPad? There is one in Pages '09 that I use all the time. Not having that feature in the iPad version of Pages could be a deal breaker for me buying an iPad. Thanks in advance for your help!

I think it not an unreasonable feature request for a word prcessor. I feel that in scaling pages down to the iPad Apple has also made the product a little less attractive for professional usage. For example pages for iPad really should preserve Endnotes created elsewhere, but it does not at present. A shame, but we can hope that in subsequent versions of pages for iPad that support or preservation of advanced word processing features is introduced.

Pages for iPad is not recognizing the password I assigned to a document. I included a hint, and I know I am entering the password that goes with the hint. Is there anything I can do to access my doc?

Pages for iPad is not recognizing the password I assigned to a document. I included a hint, and I know I am entering the password associated with the hint. Is there anything I can do to access my document? i quite the Pages app and restarted it. Now I guess I'll reset the iPad and see if that helps. Thanks!

Interesting that one does not need the password to delete using Finder.
The Pages password protects the contents of the document. If there were a Finder password, it would protect what you might think of as the "file wrapper" ... the stuff around the file content.
Glad it's not vital. I have to say I only pasword protect those Pages documents that are, in fact, vital.
Best of luck.

Is there anyway to find a new font on Pages for iPad? The letters are hard like a rock when you use foreign languages like Thai. The fonts on device do not support foreign language.

These are user to user help forums. To tell Apple you want more fonts for Thai, go here:

But I suspect this is likely one of those things for which you will always have to use a full computer rather than a iPad.

Short list of features that would be a nice addition to Pages for iPad

So I just finished my first major document on Pages for iPad and there are just a few things that I think would be nice additions.
1. My biggest problem was font size, I was typing something that required changing the font size every so often, and it got really frustrating having to tap the button, scroll down, tap the font options button, and then change the size. So the easy fix would be to add a little font size adjuster on the main task bar, on the right side maybe, there's a bunch of space up there!
2. Dedicated copy/paste button. I think it would be nice to add a little copy paste button on then main task bar, on the left side
3. Another annoying thing is knowing when bold/italic/underline/center left,right,middle was on or off. I think simply making them it a bit darker when it was on would help a bunch, similar to how the shift button turns blue when you turn on caps lock.
4. Organizing documents into folders, it would be nice if you could organize documents into folders because I can see once you get a bunch of documents up it would get a bit clustered, maybe a search function to?
Feel free to give your opinion or share ideas of what you think should be added!

How to change the color background in Pages for iPad?

how to change the color background in Pages for iPad?

You can find many themes at https://github.com/hdoria/xcode-themes There's a download zip button on the right side of the page.
Unzip and and copy the .dvtcolortheme files into /Users/YourUsername/Library/Developer/XCode/UserData/FontAndColorThemes Create the directory if it doesn't exist.
If you can't find the Library directory you can get to it by using Finder's "Go to Folder..." option under "Go" or press shift + cmd + G then type the path.

Logical symbols in pages for IPad? Asking for help

I have a new IPad and I would like to define logical symbols on my keyboard (just like ą, ę and so on). Is there some way to do it and to use it in PAGES for IPad? I would prefer to have few math symbols defined directly under some bottoms and not to use copy/paste. (I tried to find in Pages for IPad some special characters, but there are no such things, perhaps it is possible to add it?) I have also small separated keybord (perhaps this could be somehow used...?)

Afraid you cannot define custom characters for any keyboard in the iPad. What accented characters there are can be shown by holding the appropriate letter down.

How do you highlight text in Pages for iPad? The document I want to create and highlight is a pages document

I am trying to create a document in Pages for iPad and want to highlight various bits of text but can not find a function in the inspector for this. Can anyone help,please?

Hi stuartdj,
I'm not finding a way to highlight text as one can do with iBooks (hold and swipe for black text, background yellow for example).
One option is to actually color the text itself.
Select the text, then in Style tools, tap the Font name at the top which shows the Text Options sheet where there is a Color option. Would changing the font color to Red, Green or Purple accomplish your goals?
If you do want black text on a colored background (highlighted) it would need to be text in a text box where you can change the fill (background) color. Style, Style Options, Fill. But this is not inline text and doesn't flow like just coloring the font itself.

Adjust zoom level in Pages for iPad

When I open a new document in Pages for iPad, the zoom level is set to "fit width". I would like to be able to zoom out and see more of the page on the screen at once. How do I adjust the zoom level like you can do in MS Word?
Very specifically asking about the iPad version of the app, I'm sure this is a simple issue to address in the desktop version.
Thank you for your help.
Mark

Other that rotating the iPad to portrait rather than landscape mode (portrait will show you the entire page if the keybaord is closed), not much you can do. There is no setting for this.
