My Pages document went blank, but can 'see' it in Thumbnail.

I can see my document's typed sections in Thumbnail, but my pages are completely blank (white) so that I can't edit. I double clicked on the Thumbnailed pages, but nothing came up to the right in the editing space. What did I do/can do? Did I hit a hotkey accidently and made it 'disappear?'

You opened a bank Layout template which is truely blank, it has absolutely nothing on it for you to type into.
Go back to the Template Chooser, this time choose a blank Word Processing template, they are labelled in the Sidebar.

  • Blog page shows blank in iweb, but can see entries

    blog page shows blank in iweb, but can see entries. I have search fro many help hints and currently I have deleted the Home Folder/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iWeb.plist and restarted (done this a few times) and fixed permissions.
    If there is no fix for this, then can someone tell me if I can create a new blog then add the old entries to a new blog ??

    Alrighty... i might have found a way to make your blog page shown again.. it's a lot of work tho! Especially if u have had a lot in your entries...
    I only have 20 or so entries... What i did was, changing the blog page theme to another theme that has similarities in the blog layout page.. and then switching it back to the theme that you have...
    ex. My original theme is the Modern Frame.. I switch it to Water Color theme (check if your blog page is there..) then switch it back to your original theme.
    It's not done yet! You have to edit your entries again, in order to get your web original look! i edited it per post! make sure you keep saving it after you edited a little bit of stuff, just to make sure you won't lose it AGAIN...
    Once I'm done, i even save another copy of a domain file on my desktop.. you know, just in case..
    Mac should fix this iweb problems.. Thank god i only have a few posts by now.. What about people who has hundreds of post...
    iWeb should come in handy.. Not giving us more problems..

  • I exported a pages document to word, but was not able to edit the new word document.

    i exported a pages document to word, but was not able to edit the new word document.

    I have a OSX IMAC Version 10.8.5.  I got pages at the same time I purchased this computer.  I use a document to write all my passwords. Seems like when I E-mail myself the document from pages, I have not been able to type in the document, it acts like it is locked. I checked all the "lock" and "unlock" fields, and none of them were locked.  I notice the document says PDF.  How do I correct this?  Seems like I've tried everything.  If you can help, that would be great!

  • I opened my Pages document, choose Share but Mail is inactive.  How do I get Mail active?

    I opened my Pages document, choose Share, but Mail is inactive.  It used to be active, don't know what happened. How do I activate mail so I can send
    my Pages document via email?

    Prior to the current version, the share menu contained only the means of sharing (Mail, Export). Choosing one of these opened a sub menu containing the available formats for the item to be shared (eg. Pages, Word, PDF).
    For reasons unknown, Aple has revised the Share menu to show the means of sharing as a header (greyed) and the formats to use (Pages, Word, PDF) as menu items.
    Choose the format lsted under the header.

  • I am using iphoto '09 version 8.1.2. (424) today a few photos will not open.  I can see them as thumbnails but they try to open and then a big ! mark appears

    I am using iphoto '09 version 8.1.2. (424).   Today a few photos will not open.  I can see them as thumbnails but when I  try to open them they start to open and then a big ! mark appears.  I have not had this problem before.  Can you help

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
    Regards

  • Cant see my iTunes, Photos or Movies, but can see YouTube?

    Just open the brand new Apple TV. It arrived this morning. Used all the right ID's and passwords and can see YouTube and rent films, but the home movies, photo's and music is only showing up on the MacBook Pro. The Apple TV remote seems to work fine all of it and will allow me to see everything on the Macbook pro. I've tried, rebooting, laptop and and Apple TV, resetting Apple TV, switched on, then off and back on again Home Sharing in Itunes on the Macbook pro. Why cant I see my iTunes, Photos or Movies on my TV Screen, but can see YouTube through Apple TV? I'm going crazy!!!!!

    Worked out this solution. iTunes needed upgrading to 10.0.1. Did this and now it works fine.

    Thanks,

    Kensey,
    Have you recently begun using Lion? Has it been more than 2 weeks since you last opened those documents?
    Did you notice a button marked "Unlock" in that dialog that informed you that the document was locked?
