Moving pages between chapters

I just started using iBooks Author and when I imported a Pages file each page in iBooks Author is on a different Chapter.
Is there a way to fix this so each page is NOT on a separate Chapter.
Also is there a way to move pages between Chapters.
thanks

You can not rearrange pages or move them from one chapter to another. However, you can move (or copy/paste) sections.
Go to... iBook Menu... Help... iBooks Author Help... Set up your book... Add, reorder, or delete chapters, sections, and pages.
From the iBook help menu:
In the Book pane (shown above), do either or both of the following:
To change the order of chapters: Drag them.
To change the order of sections: Drag a section to a new location. You can also drag a section from one chapter to another.

Moving pages between spaces

Hi Everyone,
i am in difficult situation, please provide any input. it would be great help to me.
I have few pages in each spaces, i was wondering if there is a way i could move these pages between other parent spaces.
All i know now is : i can export each or all spaces which would give me .ear file and when i look into it, i see pages under .....\oracle\webcenter\page\scopedMD\sd0b3d144_bb8d_401f_8126_2fa630ab0c90\ like page2.jspx, page3.jspx, etc but i don't see content in it.....
Note: we haven't used any content presenter.
All pages and spaces are created out of the box by going through Administration in the webcenter.

Moving Pages Between Applications

When I first began using AE, I created many different applications as request came in. Now, this is getting cumbersome as each application requires the user to login and logout. I want, instead, to create a single application and to move the pages from all the various applications into this single application. This will allow the user to authenticate once and then use all the application areas.
The problem is that while one may import a page or application (according to the drop down window), there does not appear to be any way to export only a page.
Is there anyway that I can move the pages from all these individual applications into a new application without having to recode all of them? Is there no way to export pages from one application then import them into another?

When I first began using AE, I created many different
applications as request came in. Now, this is getting
cumbersome as each application requires the user to
login and logout. I want, instead, to create a single
application and to move the pages from all the
various applications into this single application.
This will allow the user to authenticate once and
then use all the application areas.This is not really the case. If you want users to be able to use multiple applications with a single login you simply need to set a common cookie on each of the applications that will share the same login credentials.
In AppEx, go to Shared Components>Authentication Schemes and click on the active authentication scheme. Near the bottom of the 'Edit Authentication Scheme' page there is a section for Cookie Attributes. Simply enter any name you like for the cookie and save it. Do the same for your other applications wherever you want to share logins.
The problem is that while one may import a page or
application (according to the drop down window),
there does not appear to be any way to export only a
page. You can export a single page - but the utility of doing so is limited since you can't import a single page export into an application different from which it came. Odd, I know. But that seems to be the way it is - for now.
Is there anyway that I can move the pages from all
these individual applications into a new application
without having to recode all of them? Is there no way
to export pages from one application then import them
into another?
-JoeFor what it's worth (i.e. my 2 cents) I don't really like the idea of create a single monolithic application with lots of unrelated pages in the same application. I can get too confusing too easily - unless you use a lot of discipline in grouping and naming your pages.
I like to create smaller special purpose apps that are more manageable and jump across applications wherever I need to. This is in fact how AppEx itself works. If you watch the application IDs on the address bar as you switch between the application builder, sql workshop and the administration pages you can see that they are indeed different applications - but all integrated quite nicely.

Audio problems when moving between chapters

My movie consists of imported video from my camera. I have a two songs playing over the video - one at the beginning of the first chapter and one at the beginning of the last chapter. When I play the movie straight through, the audio works perfectly fine. When I skip between chapters the two with songs play correctly. However the chapters that have the original audio are distorted - the video seems to pause or stall out and the audio doesn't play for several seconds. Does anyone know what my problem might be and how to fix it?

SteveG, I don't believe it is an 1820m issue at all. Do you have a single or multi-core processor? This behavior did not occur on my old P4 3GHz system. I only started observing it when I built this quad core system about a month ago.
By the way, today I replaced my mobo with one of the same brand and model and the behavior still exists (to rule out a defective mobo.) I've also tried 3 different video cards (although they were all NVIDIA) and the problem remains no matter which card I use.
Durin,
As I was typing the first post, I verified that I was using the Emu 1820m ASIO driver in both Edit and Multitrack views. (As I was writing it, it crossed my mind that I might have it set to something else in one mode.) However, it is the same in both.
One thing I forgot to mention is that there is one more app that behaves similarly (Reaper). All other apps (Sonar, FL Studio, eXT, Ableton Live, Sound Forge, Wavosaur) do not show this behavior and are rock solid.
If you'd like to see my thread about this behavior in Reaper (and others who can reproduce it) see here: http://www.cockos.com/forum/showthread.php?t=19036
I believe Sonar, FL Studio, eXT, Ableton Live, Sound Forge, Wavosaur, etc.. are doing something properly when playing back audio and/or initializing plugins that Adobe Audition and Reaper are failing to do properly with certain hardware configurations.

How do I maintain spreads after moving pages from one file to another?

I'm consolidating several book chapters into one Indesign file, by way of clicking on the thumbnails on the Pages panel and selecting 'Move Pages...' from the contextual menu.
The problem I'm having is that I can't maintain the page flow between chapters on the destination file, resulting in a broken spread between chapters when exporting to PDF. Here's a screenshot to better illustrate the problem, here seen in between pages 18-19:
I've tried turning on and off the following options on both the source and destination documents but nothing changes:
- Allow Selected Spread To Shuffle
- Allow Document Pages To Shuffle
I've also removed all the sections from the destination document (as you can see on the screenshot, page 19 does not have the little black arrow which denotes a new section), with no luck either.
I also tried dragging the thumbnails manually but to no avail; I just can't figure out how to keep the page spreads between chapters together.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks in advance
Mariano

Thank you so much for your reply Peter
I have no idea what those brackets meant, I've followed your recommendation and my problem is fixed now.
Kind regards

How do I Add Pages to Chapters?

I am trying to lay out a book with about 15 chapters. I start by ading some text to a chapter page but that only accepts a few lines. I thought iBooks Author would add pages automatically as I added more text but that doesn't seem to be the case.
I added Section pages after the Chapter page but that format is different and it seems that Sections are for a different purpose than Chapters.
I know iBooks Author is intended to be for textbooks so maybe I am using Chapters in the wrong way. Should I not use Chapters and just use Sections to build my book? If I do that, with the TOC still recognize those different sections as Chapters?
What is really the different between Chapters and Sections?
I could really use some help.
Thanks,
David

David,
Download this book Publishing With iBooks Author, from O'Rilley, it's free.

There is a section in this book addressing Chapter & Section titles and how we can screw things up. I don't know if this applies to your situation, but the book is filled with good advice.
As for redoing the book, set u the new book with blank chapters, sections, pages and then just copy & past between. It goes very fast.
All the best,

How to move pages between documents WITHOUT elements shifting

Hi everyone! My team members and I are so frustrated over what I think should be a really simple issue: copying/moving/dragging pages between documents and NOTHING CHANGING.
Whenever we move pages between documents (which we have to do on a monthly basis - moving content into client branded files), at least ONE thing will shift and it usually has to do with overset text and/or text wrap. We have googled our brains out. We've tried everything on this list How-To: 10 Techniques for Copying Pages Between InDesign Documents | CreativePro.com and in the various Lynda tutorials we've looked at. We have combined our powers and still can not solve this problem so now I come to you, hoping that you can please please please help us figure out this issue before one of us throws a computer out the window.
We have this one document. And this is what one of the problem pages looks like. Everything is on one layer. (look at the section marked 5)
Then I move the pages (copy/paste the content; drag and drop the pages; etc.) into the destination document so we can apply branding.
AND THIS HAPPENS.
WHY does this text suddenly become overset?
The preferences of both documents are IDENTICAL. In fact, Document B was originally created from Document A.
AND FUN FYI: I took Document A and Saved As a new name. Opened it the new name. And tried moving the pages into the newly named document -- and the SAME EXACT THING HAPPENED.
I am going to bash my head into a wall. Can someone please shed some light on this? Have you seen this before? How do we fix it??

Doesn't saving as IDML lose some of the properties if you use any shadow or other effects?
That's not something that I have ever heard, but since I haven't heard everything, I suppose it's possible. What you may be thinking of is that some people use idml to migrate a file to a lower version, and if that lower version lacks a feature of the version that created the file, you will either lose or modify the way that that feature worked in the original. I don't think that even in that scenario that a feature that was present in both versions would go away just because it took a trip through idml to get to an earlier version. And if idml botched shadow or effects, nobody would use it, and I don't think Adobe would have it.

If we had just done a final Save As on the Document A before giving it to the team member who's going to be copying the content into Document B, does that not count as doing a Save As? You mean the minute it's freshly opened try doing another Save As? (P.S. Edit: Just tried this. Didn't change what happened. )
The thing that Save-As does is remove little bits of data associated with undos that a normal Save retains. Sometimes this data can lead to problems, so any time you do it, it will help, but if you do it at stage 37 and you hand off at stage 38, you will have cleared out most all of anything that may have built up over time. I don't want to give the impression that it is required, but it certainly doesn't hurt, and is probably a good idea to Save-As periodically.

Moving Pages using Tags

I have always found moving pages around in Acrobat documents to be a pain. I thought I might be able to use tags or some other form of document structure to move pages around.
In the help section related to tagging, the help states:
Add tagged bookmarks
Tagged bookmarks give you greater control over page
content than do regular bookmarks. Because tagged
bookmarks use the underlying structural information of the
document elements (for example, heading levels,
paragraphs, table titles), you can use them to edit the
document, **such as rearranging their corresponding pages in
the PDF**, or deleting pages. If you move or delete a parent
tagged bookmark, its children tagged bookmarks are
moved or deleted along with it.
However, under the page movement help section, it states
Move or copy a page
You can use page thumbnails to copy or move pages within
a document and between documents.
When you drag a page thumbnail in a Pages panel, a bar
appears near other thumbnails, indicating the position in
which it will appear in the PDF. This bar appears at the
bottom or top when the thumbnails are in a single column,
or to the left or right if more than one column of
thumbnails is displayed.
Note: Tagged bookmarks affect the order that reading
devices follow, such as devices for the visually impaired.
Tagged bookmarks do not change the sequence of pages in
a PDF.
Is there really a way that you can move actual pages around in a document in a structure way, rather than just crudely selected a range of pages in the pages view?

[JS] [Win7] [CS5] Moving pages to another document

Hi guys,
I need to write a script for my company which merges 3 documents together by selecting the needed pages in two of three documents and moving them to the third document. Everything works fine and I am almost finished but I can't find a way to move pages between documents.
I also thought about just copying everything on the needed pages but this doesn't work because every document has different master pages which are needed.
Is somebody able to help me with the needed code to select some Pages and move them to the end of another document?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

With no pages moved and no pageItems covered - where is the point which you called "almost finish"?
Example:
(with 2 documents opened - last opened index = 0)
var tarPage = app.documents[0].pages[0];
app.documents[1].pages[0].duplicate(LocationOptions.AFTER, tarPage);
It duplicates 1st page of 1st doc after 1st page od 2nd doc. Move() method work similar.
In case of masterPages you can move them as well but this is an open gate to another story, I am afraid.

Moving files between folders is very slow

Hi, I have an iMac 2011. Processor: 2.7GHz Intel Core i5/ Memory 4GB
OS X Yosemite, version 10.10.1
After I change my OS from Mavericks to Yosemite, moving files between folders is very slow.
For example, if I move one jpg file in Desktop to Pictures folder (or just any other folders like Trash), it takes about 3 seconds.
When I was still using Mavericks, it made that Ding sound and transferred files right away. However, now, although it makes the Ding sound right away, the file is still there for 3 seconds.
I tried to clean up my mac using many apps, but they never fixed this problem.
I've also tried what I saw on this one thread. OS X File Transfers Very Slow
Go->Connect to Server then type "cifs://server-address" but it says there is a problem and did nothing. (maybe different issue)
Please help!

There may be other issues, but you installed the "Genieo" or "InstallMac" ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it.
Back up all data before making any changes.
Besides the files listed in the linked support article, you may also need to remove this file in the same way:
~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.ltvbit.plist
If there are other items with a name that includes "Genieo" or "genieo" alongside any of those you find, remove them as well.
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, then you may have one of the other kinds of adware covered by the support article. Follow the rest of the instructions in the article.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. Chances are you got it from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates
if it's not already checked.

On an iPad, how do I insert a blank page between two using iWork Pages?

I realize how many times I used the word 'pages' in the question, I was unable to think of a less confusing way to word it. :)
I am using an iPad with Pages loaded on it. All software is up-to-date. I have downloaded a few templates apps to use with it. I have figured out how to add a blank page to the end of the document (by hitting enter at the base of the previous page before it). However, I would like advice or assistance adding a blank page between two existing pages. The other "trick/work around" is not effective. I'd even appreciate learning how to change the order of the pages so I may place the blank sheet where I need it.
Hope this makes sense. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance,

Position the cursor where desired by touching the screen. In the selection bubble that appears, i.e., Select, Select All, Paste, Insert, choose Insert and from the insert menu choose Page Break. Two Page breaks will produce a blank page.

TS1424 I purchased and downloaded a book in iBooks. I read about 16 chapters. The next time I opened the app to read the book, no words loaded on the pages. It would go to the table of contents, but not to pages in chapters. Any ideas?

Try to reset your phone, hold the home/sleep buttons until it reboots and the apple logo appears, don't release the buttons till apple logo appears. If no luck there, Resync the book. Or delete it and redownload it. Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Alternate layout created when moving pages from one document to another

I'm using CC on Windows 7 - I have 2 documents that I want to merge and make into 1 [I know people will want to know why I would want to do this - each document is the result of a different data merge - data merge can only handle one master page - so I have 2 datamerges - 2 files - and just need to merge the 2 files]
This used to work beautifully in ID 5.5 - now when I use the pages panel to move the pages to the other document - it creates an alternate layout - it is then very difficult for me to interlace alternating pages - - I use dot be able to just move the pages into place - but with eh 2 layouts it is behaving differently and in a way I do not understand. Is there any way I can get around this? or avoid the alternate layout and just have one. The 2 page sizes are identical so it is not a problem of varying size - the paragraph styles are all the same as well. I have tried to delete the alternating style but it will delete all the pages as well.
Thanks

Maybe its time for me to Replace my Preferences, because I also have 8.0.2, and I tried the same thing with two new documents based on the same preset - it still made an alternate layout. When the moved page is placed in the middle of several pages (say - after page 2, of 6 pages) all the pages after the inserted one become part of the new alternate layout. In this example, I had a six-page document, and moved one page of the other identical document to After Page 3 Here's the result

Moving pages and page numbers running on

When moving pages from one document to another (using the move pages feature) the page numbers aren't running in order. The document that I add to the end of the previous document starts at page 1.
They used to run in order in CS5, so first document would end at 28 and new document would start at 29, is this a setting I need to change?

Sounds like your previous documetn was part of a Book, and the Book was controlling the numbering, OR you set the numbering and section options on the first page of each file to start onthe number of your choice.
When you move pages to a new file, that file will start with page 1 by default, and it's up to you to change it if you need to.
