Missing "Insert Pages" - preferences and other beasties

Last week Peter Spier tried to help me with this but I haven't been able to get it to work. When I go to Layout - Insert Pages - it is grayed out. All I can do is Add pages and this kind of drops them in where ever it feels like and has messed with my auto flow text. I gave my IT guy the link that Peter sent me but it hasn't worked. Anyone out there with some other solutions i would be more than happy to hear from you! :)
Thank you,
Barbara

I didn't need notes. I started Indesign, opened a multipage file (a
one-page file will let you add pages, but not insert them), and went to
Layout > Pages, and all the choices were grayed out. Tried it again, and
they were all there. So with nothing intelligent to say, I kept quiet.
Now I just tried a one-page file again, and now it *will* let me insert
pages. The logic of not being able to insert pages between one page made
sense to me, so I'm very confused now. There's something strange about
insert pages. I just don't have enough time today to try and figure out
what makes it not work.

    Go here:

    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
    By the way, I strongly recommend not posting your phone number or other personal information in these forums, or any other forum open to other users. It could lead to serious privacy issues.

  • Illuminate keyboard in low light conditions box is missing under keyboard preferences and my keyboard backlight is not lit. Any help?

    "illuminate keyboard in low light conditions " box is missing under keyboard preferences and my keyboard backlight is not lit.
    Any help?

    Did you used to have the option?  I did, and when my keyboard backlight stopped working, I followed instructions on 'Resetting the System Management Controller' http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964.  After I did that, the menu option completely disappeared, and I can't get it back.
    I have the 2010 MacBook Pro (Intel), it used to work, but since moving to Lion, it hasn't, and now the option is gone altogether.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features(Later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (If this won't uninstall press on)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

  • Deleting Orphaned Preferences and Other Files

    Under Classic there were a couple of apps that would seek out and list orphaned preferences and other files from applications that had been deleted from the computer. There are some UNINSTALLER apps for Leopard, but I can't seem to find any that will list orphaned files for deletion. What I want to do is get rid of orphaned files from apps that I probably hand-deleted some time ago.
    Anyone know of a solution?

    Uninstalling Software: The Basics
    Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
    Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
    Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
    Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
    If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, Easy Find, instead. Download Easy Find at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
    Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
    There are also several shareware utilities that can uninstall applications:
    AppZapper
    CleanApp
    Yank
    SuperPop
    Uninstaller
    Spring Cleaning
    Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
    For more information visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on removing software.
    If you have uninstaller software already installed then it should, typically, alert you to associated files that you may want to delete. But they will not work for applications you have deleted prior to installing the uninstaller software.

  • How can I make some pages in a PDF display in single-page view and others in two-page (facing) view?

    Exactly as it says on the tin. I am looking to save a PDF magazine/book layout in such a way so that when opened, only the front and back covers open to the viewer in single-page mode, and the rest of the pages in two-page facing mode, without re-printing the in-between pages in booklet format  and re-inserting them into a new PDF (with the front and back covers left separate and untouched, and included as single portrait-orientation pages). This is so that individual pages can still be printed (on a physical printer, not a "virtual" one like a PDF driver), as-is without having the page next to it included, or the printouts always requiring landscape orientation (resulting with two "pages" from the PDF showing up on one sheet of paper).
    So when the PDF is opened, I want just the front and back cover to be auto-viewed by themselves, and the content (the "meat" of the document) viewed side-by-side, as though one were actually reading a "book" -- but without actually re-doing the content pages to be "fused" side-by-side. Thus creating the "illusion" that they are, in fact, in booklet form. Is this possible, to have different page-display settings for different pages/page ranges in a single PDF? If so, how is this done? If not, what would be my best course of action otherwise to achieve this "virtual" book layout, while still retaining the "physical" structure of the document and allowing individual pages to be printed by themselves rather than "fused" together?

    The best you can do practicably is the 'two up with cover page' view mode. The first page will appear singly but not centered, and to get the last page to behave it would have to be a folio sheet.
    It's theoretically possible to use JavaScript to reset the view mode as each page is changed, but it makes for a nightmare of usability (what if someone on a smaller display wants to use 'fit to width'? Not an option if JS keeps overruling it). Anything involving JS won't work on non-Adobe software or mobile devices.
    Not a programmer by any means, so I won't be using JavaScript because I wouldn't know where to begin. I was thinking more in terms of an option I could adjust in the menus or dialogues.

  • Troubles with opening Finder, System Preferences, and others from dock

    I am having problems with Finder, System Preferences, applications like Word, Excel, and Firefox. When I click on their icons in the dock, the menu bar appears with the name of the application and file, edit, etc. but the application does not open a window on the screen. I just see my background pic. Some of the items in the menu bar that pop down don't work. However, apps like my mail, Safari, Itunes and others work properly.
    If anyone can help me with some suggestions, that would be great!

    Hello t:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    Do those applications open from the application folder? If they do:
    Try trashing a preference file and restarting (com.apple.dock.plist).
    If that does not help, drag the icons that do not work off the dock (poof sound). Then go to the application folder and drag the appropriate icon to the dock.

  • Premiere keyboard shortcuts dont work (page up/ page down ) and others

    I use the shortcuts for premiere alot but the keyboard shortcuts are no longer working
    page up / page down
    ctrl + k    = cut function
    home
    end
    not working
    but the play rewind and pause j,k, l are working
    i tried changing the shortcut to something else and then back but that didnt work eithe

    With at least Page Up/Page Down and Ctrl+K, they are dependent on having target tracks active. Click the track selectors in the header area (far left side of the timeline panel) to activate one or more tracks. Now, those shortcut keys should be effective.

  • Captivate 6 is Crashing when inserting click boxes and other issues

    Desperately need help because I have never seen anything like this.  I use Captivate 6 in the workplace and have not run into an issue like this in the 9 years I have used Captivate.
    Captivate will not open any new projects (800 x 600 or 640 x 480 etc.)  Nothing happens.  When I open 1024 x 768 (the project size I have been using for the last year), a new project will open but when I try to add a click box, I get an error message "A fatal error has occurred and the application is being terminated.  Adobe Captivate tried to save all your work int he respective project folders as "cpbackup" files.  Please restart Captivate.  This has only been happening for a week.
    When a coworker or IT employee signs onto my computer under their profile, Captivate works fine for them.  I went to another co-workers desk who has Captivate and when I sign on her computer under my profile, I have the same problem so we figured my work profile was corrupt.  IT set up a new profile 2 separate times, I have uninstalled and re-installed 3 or 4 time and nothing works.  We are on a network but Captivate is installed on my C:Drive and I save all my files on the C:Drive.
    The odd thing is if can open up files I have worked on this past year (even up to 2 weeks ago), they are fine and I can insert click boxes without any problems.  It just happens when I try to create a new file. 
    We have Adobe volume licenses at work so I can not call and get support and none of us can figure this out.  I would be really grateful for some help!!
    Thanks,
    Jeff

  • Printing page name and other information

    I'm new to mac and having a bit of a time trying to understand how many print interfaces there are. Loving things so far but I need to take a minute to figure some things out.
    1. Is there a way to set my HP Printer to always print the name of the file at the bottom or otherwise set these kinds of options as pre-settings so I can pull down to them when I want various configs/
    2. Is there a way to get the pdf printer in Preview to default to printing to all pages? I seem to frequently print one page and I have to go through a bunch of clickthrough operations to get all the pages to print to one pdf.
    Thanks,

    This is usually a feature of the application you are printing from and appears in the applications PDE, usually the default panel shown when the the Print Dialog is brought up.
    2. Is there a way to get the pdf printer in Preview to default to printing to all pages? I seem to frequently print one page and I have to go through a bunch of clickthrough operations to get all the pages to print to one pdf.
    What printer are you using? And are you using the PDF menu at the bottom left of the print dialog?

  • Can't set preferences, and other greyed menu choices

    Cannot set preferences for iDVD 06, and most menu choices are greyed.
    [Note: this is NOT the case with all other iLife 06 applications where all menu selections are active.]
    Looking through this forum I tried deleting the files in the library, as seems to be a frequent solution to everythng. This did NOT work in my case.
    This is the only program in iLife06 which has this problem. All the others have active menu selection. I can't even get "About iDVD" to work!
    Thanks for your help. Very frustrated.

    I would start by forcing AppleWorks to create new preference files.
    Quit AppleWorks and go to the Finder.
    In a finder window, go:
    yourname > Library > Preferences
    Locate and select the folder AppleWorks and the file com.apple.appleworks.plist
    Drag both to the Desktop or to the Trash (but don't empty the Trash).
    Relaunch AppleWorks to check for any change.
    Regards,
    Barry
    NOTE: This will return all preferences to their default settings. AppleWorks will construct new copies of the plist, the folder, and the files in the folder as it needs them. If you have made changes to the Button Bar, and have had no issues related to the Button Bar, you can restore those changes (probably without issues arising) by dragging the Button Bar file from the folder you moved into the new one in Preferences when it is created.

    Edit:
    While your issue does not appear to be caused by the Recent Items bug referenced in Michael's post (after "Also perhaps..", there's no danger in clearing your Recent Items folder as discussed in the linked User Tip. This is a 'regular maintenance' procedure for me.

  • CUP 5.3: Missing End User Personalization and others

    Upgraded from 5.2 to 5.3 SP06.  I'm expecting to see End User Personalization, User Review, and Change Long submenus in the Configuration tab, but they are missing.  I've imported the SP06 XML files for CUP, and configured the system to no avail.  I've opened up a support message, but was hoping that someone else has experienced this.

    Hi William
    Have you done all the steps related with POST upgrade steps in the installation document?
    also have you uploaded AE_init_append_data_CC.xml ?

  • Search doesn't search ~/Library/Preferences and others

    Since upgrading to 10.5 I've noticed that Spotlight (as well as doing a normal finder search) doesn't search the ~/Library/Preferences folder (or a lot of other folders as well including Application Support).
    For example try to search for com.apple.itunes and nothing will come up.
    BUT if you navigate to the Preferences folder and search for com.apple.itunes ONLY in the Preferences folder it will show up.
    This kind of ruins the search for me, and forces me to use lame 3rd party search apps.
    Does anyone know a way to make Spotlight and the regular finder search, actually search the entire system?
    Thanks

    I'm thinking there's gotta be a command-line hack/fix to take care of this issue. I'm sure it annoys a lot of people.

  • IPhoto book: Can I use less than 20 pages? and other questions...

    Is 20 pages the minimum? I have just eleven photos. Is there a workaround for this? Also, the iPhoto preview looks fine, but I'm wondering what the file specs need to be. My original files are approx. 15 MB TIFF. Should they be jpeg? Resized? Does iPhoto (or Kodak) do this automatically? Thanks for any help.

    TW3:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. 20 pages is the minimum. I think it's due to the minimum number of pages that can be bound. I really doesn't matter about the tiff files as iPhoto creates a PDF file for uploading and printing. Just be sure they are RBG and not CMYK.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • Issues with spotlight, system preferences, and other programs

    I am having some incredibly frustrating issues since I autoupdated last week. Since using autoupdate, My spotlight will not work (I type in information and it deletes the characters moments after i type it, and my system preferences will not open; it merely closes after 2-3 seconds. I saw on the spotlight board that to fix the spotlight, you must index the spotlight to make it work after an update, but I cannot do that because system preferences will not work. Dows anybody have any input???
    Thanks!

    I'm not sure if this helps, but here is my log in my console. I tried deleting thd files you mentioned, however it is still malfunctioning. Any other ideas???
    Thank!
