New Document without the Example?

Is there a setting of Pages (08 or otherwise) that I can apply to be given a blank sheet upon selecting something like "Extreme Newsletter," and yet have the page formatted and prepared to act exactly like that type of document would? That is to say, am I to be treated to the default Lorem Ipsum example each time (with the exception of blank templates), then having to work from there to hack and slash at what I'm given to replace it with what I want? Or is there another way?

Or go into Preferences, and select:
For New Documents: Use Template
It should already have the "Blank" template selected, but, if not, you an pick the right one my pressing the "Choose..." button.
(Works in Numbers too, which is where I learned about it.)

I received an email containing a spreadsheet created using Mac Office 2004 on my new MacBook Air equipped with Mac Office 2011. When I saved the document, my Finder lists the document without the .xls file extension. Why?

I received an email containing a spreadsheet created using Mac Office 2004 on my new MacBook Air equipped with Mac Office 2011. When I saved the document, my Finder lists the document without the .xls file extension. Why?
All other .xls documents created by Mac Office 2004 retained the .xls file extention when I migrated them over to the new MacBook Air.

I know what happened. When I saved the document I somehow hit the Hide File Extension box. Sorry to trouble this group. I simply resaved it w/o activating the Hide File Extension feature.

How do I add page numbers to my document without the page numbers automatically changing. I do not want the page numbers the software automatically places into my document.

How do I add page numbers to my document without the page numbers automatically changing? The title page is blank, I can type in 1 on the 1st typed page, but the #1 automatically goes into the next page and will not change.

Click at bottom of the first page:
Menu > Insert > Section break
Click somewhere in the 2nd page (not the header/footer)
Inspector > Layout > Section > Page Numbers > Start at 1 > Configuration > uncheck use previous headers and footers
Click into the header or footer of the second page:
Menu > Insert > Auto Page Numbers…
If there is anything in the header or footer on the first page that you don't want just select it and delete it.
If you really wanted to manual place page numbers on each page you will have to use a section break between each and every page. I can't imagine that would be useful.

How do I reactivate and install Adobe Acrobat on a new computer without the original disk?

I am moving to a new computer and the Acrobat disk I used to have got lost somewhere in the office environment... so, how do I deactivate Acrobat on my old computer and activate/install it ion my new computer without the original disk?

If you were using the same serial number then, yes. You are only allowed two installs and they should be on computers used by the licensee (you).
You would need to deactivate on any additional computers if this is the case.
Just an FYI, you are in the Adobe Reader forum. If this doesn't work, you'll want to head to the Acrobat forum where you'll find more experienced users.

Good luck.

How do you open a new document from the template chooser?

Hi There,
Since upgrading to Yosemite, I can't find the option to open a new document from the template chooser. When I type in "template" in the help box it shows it under "file" But when I click on "File" I don't see that option.
Basically, I'm trying to ask how do you access the templates in the new pages?
Thanks so much

Check your preferences and make sure Show Template Chooser is selected:
Then just choose New from the File menu.

How do I sync purchased ringtones to a new iPhone without the old iPhone

Is it possible to sync purchased ringtones to a new iPhone without the old iPhone

If you have copies of them on your computer's iTunes then you should be able to - if they show in the Tones part of your iTunes library then you should be able to sync them to your new phone. Or do you not have copies of them on your computer nor on your backup of your library ?

Can I move adobe acrobat 8 to a new pc without the original cd?

Can I move adobe acrobat 8 to a new pc without the original cd?

As long as you have your license key, you can install it as long as you can get hold of a copy of the CD or installation files (that is what TSN was saying might be difficult). However, you might what to mention the OS you are migrating to. That may be a compatibility issue that really suggests you should buy an upgrade (I think AA8 qualifies for the upgrade -- you will need to check at the Adobe Store). The upgrade does require you have the previous license number available.

After editing images in Aperture, I want to overwrite the editing to an external drive. Is thee an easy way to "add" the new work without the long process of backing up the whole library.

After editing images in Aperture, I want to overwrite the new editing to a backup external drive. Is there an easy way to "add" the new work without the long process of backing up the whole library.

But the Library is not a program. I use SuperDuper, and it is smart enough to treat Finder Packages (such as the Library) as a whole bunch of files and folders, and overwrites only those that have changed. Can't CCC be set up the same way?

You can move the iTunes folder to a separate drive on your pc an then configure each account to use this drive / folder as iTunes library ... The problem is, that iTunes by default stores everything in your personal music folder which is separate for each user account in windows (and by default is on "C" drive).
I create a separate partition on every pc/laptop (and map a drive name) where I store music, videos and other mass data. This will also keep the "C" drive small, which is backed up from time to time and so my backup is also small.

How can I cut and paste from a webpage to a Word document without the document taking me to the web address when I click on a word in the document?

How can I cut and paste from a webpage to a Word document without the document taking me to the web address when I click on a word in the document?

You are trying to copy a link, it is most likely in a different color such as the words "Microsoft's own forums" in his post. In Word highlight the word or words, control click on them, select Hyperlink, then Edit Hyperlink, then delete the link from the top box. It will then have a button asking if you want to "Remove Link", click on it.

Open new document in the same window as before..how to?

Dear all,
I need to open a image document in a new browser window each time the user clicks on a particular button. The built-in I'm using is web.show_document('URL', '_blank'). But this opens a new browser window each time the button is clicked. The client wants to have open it in the first time in the day (in a new browser window) and later on open the new image on the same browser window. Do not want to open a new browser. I have tried the '_top' and '_parent' but they replace my application.
Is there any way to open the image in the same open window? Please advice.

It is possible to specifiy a named window instead of _blank.
So you could use the following instead:
web.show_document('html/hello.htm','my_window');
where my_window can be anything you want to call that browser window.
However, I have discovered that if you put this in a button trigger, the second time you press the button (if the window is still open) it will not take focus - ie. it remains in the background.
You can get around this by closing the window if it is already open:
web.show_document('html/close.htm','my_window');
web.show_document('html/hello.htm','my_window');
The close.htm needs to contain some javascript to close the window:
<html>
<body onload="closeit()">
<script>
function closeit()
window.opener = top;
window.close();
</script>
</body>
</html>
Apparently XP SP2 is a little stricter with javascript and may not allow this. Also, not sure if this works in all browsers, I only tried IE6.

How do I open up a Pages 5 document without the side formatting window also being open?

I use my Macbook primarily for writing, and every time I open a new Pages 5 document the side formatting bar/window/panel is also open. I have a small screen on my 13 in macbook, so I have to close that window up so I have room for other windows to work on multiple Pages docs at once.
Kind of a drag that I have to add an extra closing click each time I want to work on a Pages doc. Hey, those clicks add up after a while, right?
How can I set the default so that a new (or old) page opens with the formatting window/bar already closed?
I've already tried opening a blank doc, closing the formatting window,saving it as a template then setting that as my defalt "new document" template. When I open from that template the font style and size are the way I set them, but that darn bar is open.
Thanks in advance for any clues as to how to remedy this situation.

Peter,
Yeah, that's what I'm doing now - just clicking it shut each time I open a doc. But man, what a cumulitavely annoying extra step that has not been there in the 4 or 5 years that I've been using Pages, but just showed up last week.
Seems like there must be some sort of setting to make this not be the case.

Download and run Etrecheck. Copy and paste the results into your reply. It's a diagnostic tool that was developed by one of the most respected users here in the ASC to help identify the more obvious culprits.
