IWork Pages Support Help!

Hello, I am working with my homework and I experienced a problem, how to add the textbox to the header? And how do I move items in the header, it seems tobe complicated, please help!

HI Jimmy,
Objects, including images and text boxes can be inserted into headers and footers only as inline objects.
Text boxes can be placed in front of images only is the text box is a floating object.
Playing with this a bit tonight, I've found two ways of placing a text box into a header and having the text overlap the image.
One is to place the text box in front of (or partly in front of) the image, then group the two objects.
Copy the grouped objects, then Paste into the header. In the image below, the grouped object has been centered in the header:
The other is to set up the text box and the text it is to contain, then Copy it.
Paste the text box into the Header.
Paste the image into the body of the document, then change it to a floating object, set Wrap to 'none', resize it if necessary, and place it in position covering part or all of the text.
With the image selected, go Arrange > Send objects to background. In this case, the text box will be in the header, but the image will be behind the header (not in it), and will not carry to succeeding pages:
The frame of the text box, and of the header can bee seen here with View > Show Layout turned on. With that toggled off, the same header appears this way:
Regards,
Barry

    You want to just use Dropbox until the dust settles.  To use it from iWork for iOS (assuming you have the Dropbox app installed on your device), open the document in Keynote (for example), tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), choose Open in Another App, choose Keynote as your format, then choose Open in Dropbox and you will get an option to save it to your Dropbox account.  To open it from Dropbox in iWork for iOS, open the document in the Dropbox app, tap the share icon, tap Open in Keynote (for example).  It's a bit clunky, but works. 

  • I purchased iwork (pages/numbers) on my mac.....how do I get these apps now onto both my iphone and ipad

    I purchased iwork (pages/numbers) on my mac......how do I now get these apps onto my iphone and ipad? When I go to the 'purchased' section in my app store these are not listed.
    Thank you for your help.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    iWork has got a version for Mac and another for iOS. You have purchased iWork for Mac, so you can install it for free in all your Macs, but you haven't purchased iWork for iOS.
    You have to purchase iWork because the iPhone and iPad use a different operating system than the Mac and there are different versions

  • IWorks Pages Graphics

    I have just purchased my Macbook Pro...I am used to using Word as my word processing software, but now have iWorks Pages. When creating documents in Word I can insert graphics from files that are included with the software. I cannot find any graphics in the iWorks Pages software.
    Can anyone tell me where to look? Am I searching using the wrong terms (Insert...graphics or Insert...pictures or Insert...images)or do I have to import all graphics/images?

    A research in the existing threads with the really cumbersome keyword "paint" would have returned 4 links.
    The first one

    lists several tools responding to the OP's question.
    So, don't be surprised if I repeat:

  • I can't remove my own made templates (iWork, pages)

    I looked up inside the "pages help" but couldn't resolve the problem of deleting the selfmade templates.

    Pages stores those you created & saved as templates in (your account) > Library > Application Support > iWork > Pages > Templates > My Templates. The user's Library is hidden in Lion & Mountain Lion but it is easy to open. In Finder, hold down the Option key while clicking on the Go menu & your user Library will appear about halfway down the list.
    Or you can choose Go to Folder from Go menu in Finder & paste this line in the box:
    ~/Library/Application Support/iWork/Numbers/Templates/My Templates/

  • Using iWork pages for note taking - Outline Mode

    I am trying to find a good way to take notes in an organized fashion.  The other week a friend of mine was using an outline mode in microsoft office and looked to be a great way to organize his notes.  I wanted to do something similair on my mac, and it appears that iWork Pages will support the Harvard outline function which is great, and also it'll sync in the cloud, so if I'm on my ipad, it'll save to the cloud, if I'm on my iMac it'll save to the cloud.  I only have one hiccup, when I use my iPad, it doesn't seem to recognize my outline that I'm using in iWork on my iMac.  I'll start typing on my iPad and it's like the outline doesn't even exist. 
    So my question is, is there an outline feature for pages for iOS?  I want my notes to be seamless wheather I'm working in my iMac or iPad.
    Please help!

    i dont think pages for iOS does exactly what your looking for. If i were you i would just google outline apps for iPad. There are some highly rated ones that use icould sync, as well as other methods and services. Those are made exclusively for what your looking to do and most arent very expensive.

  • Can't open com.apple.iwork.pages..alt-document

    Just updated my iMac to Mavericks along with from iWork '09 to the newest Pages (5.2), Numbers (3.2) and Keynote (6.2). Somehow the vast majority of all my iWork documents got  converted to "com.apple.iwork.pages.alt-document".  Nothing but Preview will open them. Same for the Numbers documents. For instance, when I try to open the Pages Document called "Cleaning Requirements", I get a pop-up box that says... "\U201CCleaning Requirements\U201Dcan\U2019t be opened."  I've right-clicked on the document and tried to open it with the older iWorks Pages app (4.3) with no luck.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you...

    Really strange.
    Any other details you can give?
    Did any Pages '09 files translate successfully?
    Do you still have your original files? You will be much better off continuing working in Pages '09 even if you did not have these problems, Pages 5.2 is a PITA.

  • Spell check function in my iworks pages does not work, how do I fix this?

    I have a new IMac (intel) and I am struggling learning to use the ipage part of the iwork suite.  There does not appear to be a spell check feature working, since I'm trying to create some new documents, this is a real hassle.  And does anyone know how to do a cut and paste of images from the web.  I'm doing a presentation, have permission to use the photos and can't get it to work!!  sigh  I beginning to think I should have paid the xtra bucks and bought the window suite version, at least I know where they hid the bells and whistles in that one. 
    Thanks any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Greetings,
    For questions on Pages post in the Pages forum: https://discussions.apple.com/community/iwork/pages
    -- You can read about the various spell check features in Pages by typing in the word "spelling" in the Pages help menu.  This entry should get Spell check up and running for you: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Pages/4.0/en/sl150c96ab.html
    If there is an image on a website you want to use locally on your computer usually just dragging the image from the web page anywhere on your desktop is enough to copy the image.  You can then drag the image from the desktop anywhere you want.
    Alternatively you can right-click (or hold down the control key and regular click on the image) on the image and then choose "Copy Image.  You can then perform an Edit > Paste into a Pages document for example.
    Hope that helps.

    In MAC, I want to change document size from 8.5X11 to 18X24 to create a poster to print through Staples. I created the doc originally in WORD, changed the size in WORD, converted to PDF doc. But PDF doc is still in 8.5X11. Read ADOBE support help info. Terls me to change size in application rather than printer. BUT ACROBAT Pro does not give me a page set up option in FILE. I can only find one in the printer dialog box. Help!

    from the FAQs on Staples website:
    I have a file that I know is a PDF, but the website claims it is not in a PDF format. What should I do?
    Check to see that the file has the .PDF extension. Also, check that the filename does not have any special characters such as an ampersand (“&”).
    Regarding your measurements set to centimeters rather than inches; is it just in MS Word?
    Or does it occur in all other applications.
    Check your Work preferences first:
    If it is happening in all your applications, check your Mac OS System Preferences.

  • Table pop-ups don't work in iWork Pages, any ideas?

    Pop ups in Numbers tables work when transferred to Pages on the Mac but don't appear to work in iWork pages On the iphone and iPad. I produce approximately 20 reports a week in Pages. Not sure if I'm missing something, or this feature just doesn't exist yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Scripting Bookmarks & Hyperlinks in iWorks Pages

    Am I correct in assuming the AppleScript dictionary for iWorks Pages has no hooks for scripting either bookmarks or hyperlinks?
    Tell me I'm senile, unobservant, need another latte and have missed something obvious... Please.
    Regards,
    Bryan

    Yes, it looks that way. Similarly, there's no support for page numbers, page count, date/time, placeholder text, address book fields, or comments.

  • Iworks pages is not allowing my to type in a new blank document.

    I am currently a college student who has reports to write ALL the time.  I am use my MacBook Pro for all my school assignments, until recently Iworks Pages has been giving me problems.  I click on pages then on blank document and I try to type and nothing shows up.  If someone can PLEASEE help me with this problem I would greatly appreciate it. If I am unable to get to another computer to do my assignment I must open a previous assignment and type over it. Thank you guys for your time, I hope someone has an answer for me.

    Are you aware of that there are two types of blank documents? Word Processing and Page Layout. You have click on the latter which uses text Boxes for text. Set in the Pages Preferences to automatically open the WP blank template!

  • Firstly I updated my ipad into ios7 and after watching the video by Apple, iWork, pages and numbers are free for download after updating iOS 7. How can I download iWork pages and number for free?

    Firstly I updated my ipad into ios7 and after watching the video by Apple, iWork, pages and numbers are free for download after updating iOS 7. How can I download iWork pages and number for free? Please help me.

    stevejobsfan is correct; iwork for ios is free only for new purchases of new ios devices. A good work around (if you have wifi connectivity) is going to the icloud website on your ipad, and working on your document.
    A word of caution (the real reason I am responding to your post). If you do a lot of 'formatting' of a document on iwork for mac, and then save it in icloud; you will probably loose most of the formatting you have done (this will be true if you oppen the document in iwork for ios; also) It happened to me, and I did not duplicate the document before saving it to icloud; I lost at least an hours worth of work.
