Just upgraded to CS 3.3... how do I make the default margins stick to .25"?

The default for the margins on all new documents is currently .5" . I want the default to be .25".. how do I do that?

>Set the defaults by having no documents open then setting the margins,
fonts, etc to what you want.
yea.. I tried that. Closed all open InDesign documents, created a new document with .25" margins and then saved and closed it. Then shut down InDesign and then restarted and back to .5" margins. Am I missing a step?

  • How do you make the top margin .5" on page 1 and 1.0" on all of the following pages?

    I have been a PC user since 1987 and find the iWorks programs far less intuitive than the MS Office products.  I have been using a Word doc template, which I customized back in 1990, and all of my client records use this template.  So, as I am converting to Apple, I need to find a way to adapt the iWorks Pages to accomodate my doc needs, if that is possible.  As indicated in the question, I need to set the top margin on page 1 to .5" and, using either a section break or a page break, enable the top margin to be 1.0" on all of the following pages.  I read somewhere on the net that this might be accomplished by using a layout break but, when I tried that, the margins on all pages seemed to still be connected to each other.  Is there a way to accomplish my objective?

    Okay, narrow is narrow.  Just need to make sure we're clear on the point that we're discussing the top and bottom margins. 
    I just found another post that led me to "Defining Layout Margins" in the Pages help files.  Between that post and the information in this help message (specifically item #4), I was able to deduce that Pages does enable me to do exactly what I need.
    1 - set the page margins on page one;
    2 - create a layout break at the bottom of page 1, which will effect the next page;
    3 - with the cursor on page 2, open the inspector;
    4 - go to the layout inspector;
    5 - change the "before" margin.
    In the layout inspector dialog box, "before" = "top" and "after" = "bottom", not as in paragraph or line formatting.  I don't know why it couldn't just say top and bottom.  That would eliminate a lot of confusion.
    This has enabled me to have one top margin on the first page and a different top margin on all other pages. However, as nothing is perfect, this process must be repeated on each page.  A little more work but definitely worth the effort, if you need this type of formatting.  Better than not at all in other words.
    Thanks for your time and help.

    Denny,
    Open Image Capture which is located in your Applications Folder.
    Connect your device to your computer, then turn the device on.If the device is locked with a passcode, enter it.

  • I download and install Firefox 4, but when I restart my computer, it reverts to v. 3.5 something. How do I make the new version stick?

    Firefox kept trying to update v. 3.5.?.?, usually failing. So, I went to the website, then downloaded and installed v. 4. But, when I restart my computer, it reverts back to the old version, loses bookmarks added while using v. 4, and again tries to update v. 3.5. When I look in the folder which contains Firefox, "properties" says I have v. 4, even though what is appearing is not.

  • How can I make the default action for Real Player (etc.) to be not to play?

    While browsing with Mozilla, I would prefer not to have videos play unless I start the video. This goes for commercials or any video.
    Is there a preference to set this? If not, can you make one that does that?

    By default plugins.click_to_play should be default set to true. However, please also contact Apple support to make sure that this is expected.
    If there is not an option to override this, it is also possible to set the preference in about:plugins:

  • How can I change the default application for a content type?

    Running a version of Linux, the default application for PDF files is "Use Document Viewer (default)", which appears to be /usr/bin/evince. I'd much prefer to use /usr/bin/okular; how can I change the default. This question is NOT about how to change the function that is automatically applied when I access a link, in this case "Preview in Firefox", but rather to the default application that I can select when I download a file being viewed in Firefox's previewer.

    This is real progress, a solution to the problem as posted. The command:
    xdg-mime default okularApplication_pdf.desktop application/pdf
    makes okular the default.
    However when I added okular to the choices for applications in:
    * Edit>Preferences>Applications>PDF
    the popup box that appears when I click Download on the preview page changed. The pulldown menu that appears next to "Open with" used to have 3 entries:
    # Document Viewer (default)
    # Acroread
    # Other
    Now it has only 2:
    # Okular (Default)
    # Other
    I'd like it to read
    # Okular (Default)
    # Acroread
    # Other
    How can I control the entries in this pulldown list?
    Also, how can I make the default choice in the popup box be
    * Open With <whatever> , rather than
    * Save File ?

  • How can I make the sort default "by date" in iPhoto?

    On one of my computers, every time I load an event, it goes to the top of the library and I have to go to "sort/by date" to get it to go to the end or bottom of the library...where I want it.
    On my other computers, the default seems to be "by date" normally....
    How can I make the default sort option "by date?"
    Thanks.

    I am not by that computer now.  But that makes sense.
    I combine events that are imported into that iPhoto.  I suppose that would qualify as manually sorting....right?
    Still, shouldn't there be a way to overide that and make "date" the default.  That is, if your observation is correct.
    (I'll take a look tomorrow....)
    Thanks!!

  • When I create a new event, 3 alarms are automatically set. How can I set the default to zero alarms?

    What I said above - when I set up a new event three default alarms are set, all for 10 minutes prior to the event. How can I make the default alarm free?
    Thanks!

    Hi Mark,
    Do you have a default alarm set in iCal's Preferences > General Tab?
    Are you syncing via iCloud (if so look here)?

    Are you syncing elsewhere?

  • I have justed upgraded CS2 to CS5. How do I set artboard crop or trim marks for printing?

    I have justed upgraded CS2 to CS5. How do I set artboard crop or trim marks for printing?  It was under the "OBJECTS" menu in CS2, but I can't find it in CS5.

    it actually works the same way but better you don't see it that way but with perhaps more experience you might catch on and say "oh now I see that' all I have to do.
    Multiple artboards, which you did not have in CS 2 , changes the equation.
    When you open a new document you can set up a gangup in the new document dialog then say for a business card then do one business card in the first one.
    Then copy the art and text of that first one and in one command paste that art in all of the artboards with one command, you can then make another artboard that encompasses all the artboards and you now have a gang up say six up you can now print all a once as a gang up or print a range of the artboards or specific artboards.
    As a matter of fact now that you can paste on all artboards with one command AI CS 5 actually has a step and repeat feature that works verticaly and horizontally at the same time. And an improved version is easily had.
    Also since you probably know how many you need of this first artboard then you can simply make one rectangle for for the first artboard and give it a crop area effect and when you do your copy include the rectangle and then paste on all artboards and there you are
    look at the video, see how cool. less complicated not more complicated. And as other users explore this function I bet they come up with even better ideas.
    http://mysite.verizon.net/wzphoto/Artboards.mov
    I am going to make one adjustment here instead of doing a command c to copy the first artboard it would be better to do a command x to cut the first one since the command paste on all artboard does exactly that. So if you do a command c and a command option shift v then you have two rectangles and art and crop marks pasted on top of each other. Probably won't do any harm but might be confusing in the layers panel.

    we have recently upgraded to windows 7, how do i make the toolbars and panel pane larger. They are too small to view

    A larger monito is only helpful if the resolution is the same as your current monitor, and they tend to have higher resolutions as you get larger, so don't rush out an buy a larger monitor and expect miracles. If you have a 22" now and it's "HD" (1920 x 1080), you'll see some change as you go up in size, but you'd probably need at least a 27" screen at 1920 x 1080 to notice a real difference.
    Right click on the desktop and choose Screen Resolution and you can see the current settings (probably the maximum value which is recommended) and other settings you can use. Lowering the resolution will make everything on the screen larger, but less stuff will fit. Used to be, too that ID did not work will at less than the maximum resolution setting for any monitor.
    I did not mean to use the larger fonts feature, by the way, as far as I know that doesn't affect the ID user interface.
    The point I was making, rather badly, is that those of us with declining eyesight are getting shafted because there is no way to make use of all the monitor potential and adjut the user interface to make things visible. I just bought a 30" monitor to replace my old 27" which had 1920 x 1200 resolution and was pretty usable, things were about the same size as my old sony 20" running at 1600 x 1200, but even though it is larger in terms of screen size, the new monitor is even higher resolution and things are actually smaller. The only reason I can use it with ID is I know where everything is.

  • I just bought a new Nano.  How do I transfer the songs from my Shuffle to the Nano and then give the Shuffle to my husband so he can open an itunes account of his own?

    I just bought a new Nano.  How do I tranfer the songs from my Shuffle to my husband so he can open an itunes account of his own?

    DaisyDoodle,
    The songs on your Shuffle should still be in your iTunes library.  That means you should just be able to connect your Nano to the same iTunes library and sync it just as you would with your Shuffle. There is no limit to the number of iPods, iPads, or iPhones you can sync to one computer, iTunes library, or account.
    As for preparing the Shuffle for your husband, just restore it via iTunes and then let him sync it to his own iTunes library or if its the same iTunes library, let him configure it to sync only his content.
    Here are instructions on how to restore the Shuffle if need be.
