Modify one file in book without affecting others

Hi! I am working on formatting a long book, with many chapters. I have an updated manuscript and so am switching out existing text in InDesign files for new text. Whenever I do this, it updates the entire book, page numbers, etc., which takes a long time and is unnecessary. How can I set InDesign so it won't update or sync the entire book, until I'm done with this process and am ready for it to update/sync the whole thing? I know I can retrieve each file (chapter) individually and work on it, but it is much easier to open the chapters from the book palette. I work in CS5.
Thanks very much!!
Juliana

  • How can I adjust fonts in one window only without affecting other open windows

    I like to use a chat program and adjust font size without affecting other open windows

    thanks for quick answer but I'm looking to use what you said to affect Only one open window ( chat ). I got an answer to this 1 or 2 years ago using XP but forgot how to do it. I know typing in an url lets me inside the code to change something there choosing yes or no for that function. I forgot the url or particular function.
    thanks

  • Have 2 iPads on same apple acct. how wipe just one without affecting other?

    I have 2 iPads on same apple account. How do I wipe one to give to my wife without affecting the other one. (I once deleted some bookmarks and they were deleted on both iPads.)

    Hi joanfromgalax,
    The resource below explains what to do before you give your iPad to your wife.  Follow the steps in the order given.  If you sign out of the iCloud account as instructed in step 2, then the data will not be deleted.
    What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201351
    Before you sell or give away your iOS device, make sure that you've removed all of your personal information. Follow these steps to protect your data and get your device to its factory default state for the new owner:
    Back up your device.
    Sign out of iCloud:
    Tap Settings > iCloud, scroll down, and tap Sign Out. In iOS 7 or earlier, tap Delete Account.
    Tap Sign Out again, tap Delete from My iPhone, then enter your password. 
    Go to Settings > General > Reset, then tap Erase All Content and Settings.
    This will completely erase your device, including any credit or debit cards you added for Apple Pay and any photos, contacts, music, or apps. It will also turn off iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, Game Center, and other services.
    If you're using iOS 7 or later and have Find My iPhone turned on, your Apple ID and password will be required. After you provide your password, the device will be erased and removed from your account so that the next owner can activate it.
    Your content won't be deleted from iCloud when you erase your device.
    Contact your carrier for guidance on transferring service to the new owner. If you aren't using a SIM-card with your device, you can contact them to get help transferring service to the new owner.
    When the new owner turns on the device for the first time, Setup Assistant will guide them through the setup process.
    Important: Don't manually delete contacts, calendars, reminders, documents, photo streams, or any other iCloud data while signed in to your iCloud account, or the content will also be deleted from the iCloud servers and all of your devices that are signed in to iCloud.
    Cheers,
    - Judy

  • Is there a way to view just one open Finder window (without any other Finder or other application windows coming into view) from a Desktop hot corner in Yosemite?

    I just upgraded to Yosemite from Snow Leopard on a MacBook Pro. Previously, I could view just one open Finder window by viewing the Desktop via a hot corner and then selecting Finder from the Dock. This would pull only the top Finder winder into view, without showing any other open Finder windows, and most importantly, any other open application windows. I could then easily drag files/folder from my Desktop into the Finder window (which I do A LOT). Since upgrading to Yosemite, whenever I use the Desktop hot corner and select Finder from the Dock, it pulls every open application and Finder window back into view, putting Finder in front.
    Is there any way to view just one already open Finder window (or all Finder windows for that matter) without seeing all other open applications, without having to Hide the other applications or using Spaces?

    Yes I've created an Automator Application that does the job, but the "watch me do" function that does the Mail Merge is a rather Clunkey work around, as the mouse moves all over the place, thats the part i want to remove and replace with a script, or work out a different way around it that avoids the "watch me do" function.
    Is this Possible? or where/who is there i can ask to write me a script, im not a novice to scripting, but i am a novice to Applescript.

  • How do I adjust the width of a spry tab container without affecting others on website?

    I have a spry tab container with 3 tabs and I want to add more width to the container as a whole, but when I change the width in the CSS styles panel, it affects all the containers on my site. How can I make a change that only affects the one container I'm working on? Thanks!

    No problem. Here you go.
    http://victorylcms.org/newsite/recipes.html
    As you can see, I have it as two separate spry tabs. I want one that goes the width of the page, but if I change the width it affects the other spry tab I have here.

    I know how to add more tabs, I just don't know how to adjust the width on the top container only.

  • HT204022 How do I delete photos from my mac, without affecting other iOS devices (iphone)?

    Hi there, I only have a MBA with small storage.  I wish to delete the sync'ed photo from my MBC (currently 5+GB), as I use an external HD to back up my photos anyways.  But I do not want to affect the same photos stored on my iPhone.
    when I delete photos in iPhoto will it delete the same ones on my iPhone via iCloud or the next time I plug in my phone?
    THANKS!

    when I delete photos in iPhoto will it delete the same ones on my iPhone via iCloud or the next time I plug in my phone?
    If you send the photos to your phone using iTunes Photo Sync (iOS: Syncing with iTunes), yes then the albums  and photos that are no longer available on your mac, will be remove from your synced IOS device. To keep them permanently on your phone, save them to the Camera Roll.
    Regards

  • How shrink size of display without affecting other applications (i.e.not change "settings" at My Computre)?

    Cannot see the whole page but size is right for word, games, and other applications on my computer.

    You can modify the <b>layout.css.devPixelsPerPx</b> and increase or decrease the value in 0.1 or 0.05 steps to adjust the size of fonts and other elements in Firefox.
    *The layout.css.devPixelsPerPx pref is a String value parsed to a float and allows to fine tune the dimensions of all elements (user interface and web pages) more precisely (resolution 0.1 or 0.05).
    *You can use values between 0.05 and 1.0 to reduce elements in size or use values greater than 1.0 to magnify and make elements larger (percentage divided by DPI, % / DPI).
    If the web pages needs to be adjusted after changing this pref then you can look at Default FullZoom Level or NoSquint.
    *Default FullZoom Level - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/6965
    *NoSquint - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2592

  • TS5181 Radio questions-- Match = unlimited skips? Does asking not to play song in one station affect other stations?

    1) So, you get 6 skips per hour with basic radio. Does purchasing Match allow unlimited skips in addition to eliminating ads?
    2) If I tell Radio not to play songs like one being played in one station, will that same preference be applied to other stations as well?

    Okay, no answers yet but I'll add what I'm experiencing.
    I went ahead and started removing songs that didn't fit my radio list, even those I liked (taking a chance that they wouldn't then get removed from other stations).  On at least one occasion the exact song I said "Never play" on my one station was immediately played on the next station I went to.  So that, at least, seemed to indicate that you can remove songs from one station without affecting others.
    I say "seemed" because it's still possible that the updating process (whatever goes on behind the curtain we're not supposed to look at) hadn't finished, or perhaps it was taking that identical song from a different album (I didn't check that out) but at least it's pretty good evidence.  I will keep removing songs and seeing if they show up elsewhere (I have two stations that are close in terms of drawing from the same general type of music, yet on one I very specifically only want certain artists, while on the other I don't mind who is playing.  If I can go back and forth between them I may yet determine a consistent pattern.  Or maybe not -- there are thousands of possible songs for both stations, and I may not live that long :>).
    Other replies will still be appreciated.

  • Write to Measurement File Defaults Back to "Save to One File"

    I'm trying to use the "Write to Measurment File" to make a series of files - but as soon as I hit ok it defaults back to "Save to one file". Even without running the VI it just sets itself back. I've attached files of what it looks like before I hit okay, the settings, and what happens after I close it.
    Perhaps this is a bug?
    Also, if you can see, I don't want the file to be called testdata__ but there is no way to change the prefix of the file because the box is greyed out. Any way to change that either?
    Solved!

  • Modify the file.

    the actual problem is there is a text file in following kind of entries in each line
    <string>, starting point, ending point.
    eg. "this is a file" , 10, 20.
    now i want to calculate the length of the string and add to starting point and check with ending point if it is false then update the ending point with actual value.
    I know the way to change the value(using the string tokenizer).
    my question is this lines are in txt1.txt. How can i modify the values within the same file? Should i go for two files ... reading the values from one file and writing to the other values including the changing values or is there any way to modify the same text file.

    Either read the entire file in and rewrite it (depends on how large the file is)
    OR
    Write a temp file then copy that file over the target file. (of course after you've closed the original file.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
    Delete the extensions.* files (e.g. extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.

    You have Acrobat Pro on your system. It will try to open PDFs, and of course it will fail. You must uninstall it. Then, you will need a PDF reader. So install Adobe Reader. That seems quite simple, but perhaps something is wrong. If anything goes wrong with these two steps (1) uninstall Acrobat Pro (2) install Adobe Reader, then please let us know the details.
