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!

  • Pages won't allow me to type in a new document

    I have Pages '09 version 4.3. When I went to open a new document today, the blank new document will not allow me to type in it. I can insert a table and type in that fine, but if I try to just type a list or document, it won't allow me to do anything. The cursor doesn't even appear when I try to click in the document itself. I have restarted and shut down the computer already with no resolution of the problem. Suggestions?

    You opened a blank Layout template.
    Go back to the Template Chooser and choose a Word Processor template instead. They are listed in the sidebar.

  • Email address lincs in Firefox pages do not activate gmail program. Get a new blank page instead

    Using Firefox 3.6.13 on a Macbook Pro, OSX 10.5.8. and Gmail
    Find a web page with a clickable email address and want to send an email. Click on the address. Firefox opens a new "untitled" window. It is blank. No anything. Gmail does not load even though it has been open in another window. Same thing happens if Gmail is not active before clicking.
    TIA,
    Ron

    What webmail service are you using?

  • My keyboard occasionally goes crazy, not allowing me to type. Also, cursor goes crazy and opens pages and windows at will. Help!

    My typing cursor frequently goes crazy, not allowing me to type and jumping from place to place, deleting letters. Suddenly, a line I have typed will be highlighted and deleted at will.  Also, mouse cursor moves at will, opening multiple  pages in seconds. Help!  What could be causing this, and how can I stop it?
    I've had my Macbook pro for over a year and it has never done this before. Restarting the computer fixes the problem temporarily.

    My first thought was the hard drive and OS has a built in Sudden Motion Sensor whcih will stop the hard drive heads from crashing into the platters when the computer is moved suddenly. This does work most of the time and could cause some of the tings you are seeing.
    But then after reading more of your first post it seems your system and drive is doing some very strange things.
    It would be best to first take it into an Apple Genius Bar and have it looked at. They can run tests on it and since it is still in the original 1 year warranty this should not cost you anything even if something needs to be replaced.
    You can also run the Apple Hardware Test on it your self by connecting it to the Net by Ethernet cable and booting holding down the d key or the Command+d keys. That will boot the computer from the Apple internet servers and load the AHT.
    Good Luck.

  • How do you copy one page from a document into a new document? The new pages does not allow you to copy a thumbnail

    In the old pages you could simply copy the thumbnail and past a certain page into a different document.
    The new pages does not allow you to do this.

    That and 95 other things it does not let you do.
    Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder, use that instead.

  • When i try to download an update the dropdown automatically inserts my apple id which is wrong. It's in gray and will not allow me to type in a correct id. How do I stop / delete the automatic insertion of the id?

    When i try to download an update from the appstore the dropdown  menju automatically inserts my apple id (which is wrong). It's in gray and will not allow me to type in the correct id. How do i stop the auto insert so that i can enter the correct id?

    the original apple id was entered incorrectly. Apple says it must be a email address.  My email address is correct but the letter ( t ) somehow got added to the (.com) so that when i try to enter my id it is automaticly loaded with the email address the ends ( .comt ) . According to Apple this is not a "legal" email id.  But it appears on my dropdown in gray and i cannot alter it or delete it, thus preventing me from downloading software updates.

  • Just opened a new blank document in Pages (iWork 2009). When I try to type a letter (any letter of text) the computer just "dings" and types nothing.

    Just opened a new blank document in Pages (iWork 2009). When I try to type any text, the computer just "dings" at me and types nothing.

    Probably you have opened a blank Layout template which requires a Textbox for you to type into.
    Open a blank Word Processing template instead. The two types are listed in the Sidebar of the Template Chooser.

  • Set type COMM_PR_UNIT is not allowed for product type

    Hello all, I am working in SRM 7.0 and when I try to replicate service master (DNL_CUST_SRVMAS) I have this error:
    Set type COMM_PR_UNIT is not allowed for product type
    What can I do? I think that is an ABAP problem
    Thanks in advance
    Rosa Rodríguez

    Rosa,
    This note is something different and nothing to do with the issue. Can you share how did you resolve the DNL_CUST_SRVMAS issue? We are also getting same error.
    Thanks,

  • Value 'defaultNs:AddBP2Type' is not allowed for attribute 'type'

    Hi All,
    I created the wsdl for mobile and I tried to send a SOAP request from Altova XMLSpy. However when I geive the wsdl in 'wsdl file location' I receive the following.
    File http://127.0.0.1:8080/B1iXcellerator/exec/dummy/com.sap.b1i.vplatform.scenarios.setup/vPac.sap.B1Mobile/001sap0003_sap.B1Mobile.wsdl is not valid.
    Invalid XML schema: 'Value 'defaultNs:AddBP2Type' is not allowed for attribute 'type'.'
      Error location: wsdl:definitions / wsdl:types / xs:schema / xs:element / @type
    Any Idea?
    Vangelis

    Hi,
      it seems that Altove did not cope with defaultNs prefix that is used for marking default namespace.
       just look up in your <xs:schema > tag what namespace prefix is used for your namespace - you shall find there something like this
    <xs:schema xmlns:ns0="your.namespace.com" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" elementFormDefault="qualified"
    and replace prefix defaultNs with prefix of your namespace (in example above it would be ns0)
    There might be several usages of defalutNs iside of WSDL (at least in my case were two) so replace it everywhere using same approach
    Best regards, Artem

  • Storage class not allowed in storage type

    Hi All,
    I am getting this error while confirming  the TO.
    It stays Storage class is not allowed in Storage type but how can  this be configured in OMM2.
    or do we need to define any sequence in OMLY.

    Hi
    Have u defined your material as Hazardous material? is so, yes, u have to do settings in OMLY.
    "Storage class: Classifies hazardous materials with regard to their storage conditions. A check can be carried out to find out whether hazardous materials that belong to a specific storage class may be placed into a particular storage type".

    Saw this on another post.
    Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it!   It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

    Try this first - Reset 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 - let go of the buttons.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • When using more than one tab, once I have opened a pdf using firefox my laptop will not allow me to type or click in another tab unless I drag the pdf into it's own window?

    when using more than one tab, once I have opened a .pdf using firefox my laptop will not allow me to type or click in another tab unless I drag the .pdf into it's own window? not a major problem just irritating.

    I found the cause but no solution, it's actually a plugin that does that: divx plus weblpayer (it gets installed when you install DivX on your system), if you disable it and restart firefox it all works again. But I want that plugin... so DivX need to fix this, unless it is a Firefox bug in its own core... anyway these two together creates the problem.
    (I'm running Firefox 9.x on OSX Lion)
    I also wish firefox tab tear out tab worked more like chrome's tab tear out, much friendlier...
