New numbering to begin on left page?

I am trying to print a double sided document and the printer has me print all the odd/right pages then flip paper and print the even/left pages.
The first page of the index in my InDesign file (page "a") begins on a left facing page in the document - but prints as a right facing page  (starts a new piece of paper).  This leaves a blank left-facing page before  Page A - and the rest of the index prints with odd pages on right and even pages on left.
How do I eliminate this blank page and have "Page a" begin on a left facing page and the rest of the document print as odd-facing pages on left and even-facing pages on right?
I know there is a work around by overriding master page items and numbering settings - but I hope there is a way through InDesign to fix this.
Thank you

As far as I can tell, your only options are to
1) Print the first page separately, and then do the others
2) Add a blank page at the beginning of your document (and make sure to check Print Blank Pages in your print dialog)
I have this issue all the time, because all my catalog sections start on the left-hand page. I use option 1 above to get the print-order correct, but I really wish there was a print option for Duplex follows Layout to force the pages onto the correct sides.

  • How do I put page numbers in TOC to left of sections?

    This is how the actual Pages manual does its toc, yet within the manual, the page numbers always appear to the right of the text.  I thought this format might solve another toc layout problem I have.  I'm cleaning up a book of poems written by a friend.  Every poem has a number (and is on a new page) but only a few of the poems have a title.  This means that if I tab between number and title, where this exists, the entry goes off the line, see number X  (not my choice to use Roman numerals!):
    So, I thought if the page numbers were to the left, I could format the style so where there was a title (like Au suivant) this could be properly aligned.

    fruhulda was amazingly helpful, worked beyond the call of duty on my document, and provided me with the essential idea , that I needed two styles for the poem heading line, one when there was just a number and the other when there was a number and title.
    I still wouldnt mind knowing for the future how one can put the page numbers to the left in the TOC.
    And for the record, dont do what I have just done: workin Pages (as I dont have word), and then export and send to the friend using Word.  I have discovered the hard way that my Page styles did not export to Word!

    Si vous avez utilisé la commande Save As Template depuis Pages, il y a forcément un dossier
    iWork > Pages
    contenant Templates > My Templates
    comme il y a un dossier
    iWork > Numbers
    contenant Templates > My Templates
    Depuis le Finder, tapez cmd + f
    puis configurez la recherche comme sur cette recopie d'écran.
    puis lancez la recherche.
    Ainsi, vous allez trouver vos modèles personnalisés dans leur dossier.
    Chez moi, il y en a une kyrielle en dehors des dossiers standards parce que je renomme wxcvb.template quasiment tous mes documents Pages et wxcvb.nmbtemplate à peu près tous mes documents Numbers.
    Ainsi, quand je travaille sur un document, je ne suis pas ralenti par Autosave.

  • I updated my Mac to Osxmaverickx and numbers to the newest version.  I change a numbers page on the mac.  Try to open this doc via icloud on the ipad 1.  Apple suggest me to update to the new numbers software.  This is not aviable for the ipad 1.

    I installed the new numbers on the imac.
    I updated a simple spreadsheat.
    Tried to open via icloud on ipad-
    Apple suggest to update to the new numbers.  This is not aviable for the ipad 1.
    1) Why Can Ipad 1 users not open icloud docs created by the new numbers on the mac ?
    2) What's the use of mobile devices when they don't work
    3) Can I open this docs via a google application ? 

    Drag... 
    Where did you get your copy of numbers on the mac?  You best go back to your old version of numbers on your mac. 
    Perhaps it's something to do with icloud. try dropbox.  Try running the spreadsheet through NeoOffice calc on the Mac.
    It's the world of software.  When you use vintage stuff, you need to get more creative or spend money on an upgrade. Apple is lacking in the legacy world.
    Now you be the time to come up with a backup plan for your mac.

  • How can I set a custom Home Page while ALSO having a New Tab be the default Mozilla Page?

    Why is the "home Page" = to a New Tab page? Why are they linked. I want my.yahoo.com to be my Home Page (currently set properly) but my New Tab page seems to be set to "Conduit" and has a search bar. I have no idea where that came from or how it got set that way. I want to have my current Home Page but make any New Tabs be the Mozilla Default Page with a Google search bar. Is that possible? I am running on Windows XP.

    See also this article about the New Tab page (about:newtab):
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/new-tab-page-show-hide-and-customize-top-sites
    You can check for problems with preferences and try to rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js files and a possible user.js file to reset all prefs to the default values.

  • How do I set numbered lists for headings in Pages 5.2, and keep that system of numbered lists saved?

    I have tried to set numbered lists for headings in Pages 5.2 but have not succeeded. I have read similar questions concerning this but this has not helped me...
    When I say numbered lists I mean something extremely important and simple, for instance:
    1. Introduction
    1.1. Background
    1.2. Purpose and Questions
    2. The Legality of Clause X
    2.1. Legality under Article 101.1
    2.2. Legality under Article 101.3
    And so on...
    Heading 1. is selected as "Heading", 1.1 is selected as "Heading 2", and if I had 1.1.1 it would be selected as "Heading 3" and so on...
    I have navigated my way to the Format window, and under the tab "Style" and down to "Bullets & Lists". I have here selected the following: Numbered, Numbers, 1. 2. 3. 4., Tiered Numbers, Continue from previous.
    There are several problems with this currently.
    First, based on the example it becomes "2. Background" when it should be "1.1 Background" instead.
    Second, after writing some body text between the headings and then select a new heading, all the previously selected settings I mentioned above in "Bullets & Lists" have to be reselected.
    So, how do I set numbered lists for headings, or so called sub-headings, in Pages 5.2? And how do I keep that selected system of numbered lists saved so I don't have to retype it for every new heading I type? (e.g. so that Pages knows that every time I choose Heading 2, I want it to number the heading in the way selected)
    Obviously, manually writing the numbers for every heading is not a viable option, as it makes table of contents problematic and is simply tedious. You need an automatic way of doing it, especially if you write long documents where keeping headings in order is absolutely essential.
    Also, reverting back to previous Pages versions (like v. 9 I think?) is not an option as that does not exist on my recently purchased Macbook Pro.
    I need to be able to do this on Pages 5.2 and do it automatically.
    I appreciate any help with this.

    iWork '09 is not "outdated" it still works and works extremely well and whilst not perfect with MsWord it is far far better than Pages 5.2 which has a stream of major issues with exporting. It is also way better and faster to use than Microsoft Office.
    So what is your time and work actually worth? If it is less than $19.99 for 6 months, you may as well just chuck it in and take that job on minimum wages.
    You are assuming things for Office 2014 with absolutely no inside knowledge. Much as we assumed Pages 5 was going to be the long awaited improvement, but ended up being a downgrade to match the iOS version, Microsoft is headed the same way with their mobile versions.
    This is not like getting the "latest" pair of pants where you go with the crowd and throw out your cigarette legs which replaced the flares, which replaced your low cuts which replaced your cigarette legs, which replaced…
    This is work.
    If it does the job and does it well, use it. There is nothing out there to really match what Pages '09 does. Yet.
    LibreOffice can do most but not all, but has a UI that only a mother could love. It's great redemption is that it uses both open formats and the standard Microsoft formats and is under active development. It also opens and saves to just about everything. When they finally work out the Pages formats, I'm sure they will open those as well.
    I use a lot of professional software. Just because the publisher's marketing department says change the product so we can sell more, doesn't mean you have to pay any attention whatsoever. Adobe being a classical example. Most designers are just ignoring their latest subscription based bloatware and getting on with their work.

  • In the new Numbers, How can I get a 2D stacked column chart to display only 1 column?

    In the new Numbers, How can I get a 2D stacked column chart to display only 1 column?

    This is one of those things that I find really strange about Numbers 3. The control for what you want to do is not where anyone would expect to find it.
    Select the Chart
    Click on Edit Data References
    Look at the bottom left corner of the Numbers window. It should say "Plot Columns as Series" or "Plot Rows as Series"
    Click on it and change it to the other

  • Is there a layout view in the New Numbers?

    Hi there,
    I loved the layout view.  I could work with my document, add and remove cells, resize the documents before I decided to print.  Now I can't do the rezing before I print, so I have to go to print to see how it is layed out on the page and if I don't like it, I can't add / delete / resize cells without backing out into the edit pane.. 
    This makes my editing more time consuming..
    Does anybody know if there is a way to replicate this funcionality in the new numbers??
    Thanks
    Chad

    Barry,                                   
    The temporary solution you sent me will allow me to edit my existing files.  I received another file from an iPad today and that would not open it without version 3.0.  I am now behind 50 reports that cannot be billed because of formatting problems.  My records [reports] are reviewed by 3 national inspection agencies as well as state and local agencies. These agencies have the ability to shut the major corporations and municipal operations down based on my records.  My records can not be late incomplete or inaccurate.. 
         I must conclude that IMac and Ipad’s are no longer suitable for business use for myself or my sister companies. The IMac’s can still be used with office for mac but the Ipad’s must be used for pictures and music at home.  I will advise all sister companies that I will no longer accept data in pages or numbers and can no longer provide reports for their technicians in those programs.
         I am deeply disappointed that after almost 2 years development that proved to be a great savings in time due to iMac iPhone and iPad dependability the project must be scrapped because an update did not add features or correct problems. It removed features and added problems.  The reports sent to me from Ipad’s must be completely rebuilt before they can be used.  They were emailed which further degrades their usability.
             I will go this evening and purchase Windows products that are suitable for business.  I can not wait until Macintosh gets around to a fix [if they do] Because of the numerous hours spent converting these forms to mac and now back to Microsoft I am extremely offended at the lack of consideration for my time and support. Between reports I will take my break and get my frustrations out by writing bad reviews on every business forum I am a member of or simply can find.  You are costing me money time and frustration. 
             My conclusion in every forum will be Macintosh systems are very dependable but cannot be trusted due to software changes that delete common features necessary to do business.  They are not concerned with your business or time.  They may or may not react but as a business consumer I have to get the job done not wait for them to realize their mistakes and get around to making the products they sell usable.

  • Don't want to use new Numbers, but 'get info' fix doesn't work

    Hi All,
    I made the mistake of installing the new Numbers a month or two ago. I don't want to use the new Numbers because I need to work on the same documents on older machines that won't work with the new Numbers. On my machines with both versions of Numbers, I want to be able to just double-click on the documents and open with the older version. The usual fix is to use get info on a document, select the app I want to use for this type of document and then hit 'change all' for that type of doc. Well that's the theory at least. I've found that this setting doesn't stick in this case. (I've never seen this not work).  It still opens with the new Numbers.
    I've tried removing Numbers, but Software Update keeps nagging that there is an update available jfor Numbers, and wants to reinstall it. They 'dumbed down' Software Update so that you can't remove updates you don't want to be bothered by. (I hate it that Apple continually removes features, then adds them back in a year or two!) So I'm stuck.
    Any one else have this happen? Any fixes?
    Thanks!

    Using Get Info to change all documents to open with Pages 4.3 doesn't work. The Mac OS will always default to the newest installed version & has for as long as I can remember. It will work on individual files, but that could be a lot of files to reset.
    This is what worked for me. After I installed the new iWork updates I created a folder on an external drive & named it "Applications." I then moved the new iWork apps to this folder & renamed the applications Keynote 6, Pages 5 & Numbers 3. I have icons for two versions of Pages & Numbers (I rarely use Keynote) in my Dock. Even with two versions of Pages & Numbers running, double-clicking an existing file opens in Pages 4.3 or Numbers 2.3. This should also keep the Mac App Store from nagging you to update.
    Since the last update I've used the solution Peter Breis posted (4th post in that thread) in iWork Tips 'n' Tricks with a little "tweak."
    Making Numbers '09 the default whilst keeping Pages 5
    1. Move any new iWork apps in another clearly labelled folder (I created a new folder in Applications & named it iWork 13)
    2. Menu > Apple > System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy > drag the above folder into the list
    2) Move the new iWork folder into the trash (temporarily)
    3) Select any Numbers file in Finder > Menu > Info (cmd+i) > Open with: > Pages '09 > Change all
    4) Re the new iWork folder from the trash (right-click > Put back)
    Pages 5 should no longer appear as a default App, and you won't have to keep a copy in a separate drive or dmg.
    IMPORTANT: Make a note of where and how Pages was installed for the next App Store update and temporarily move it back there before putting it away again in the folder concealed from Spotlight.

  • Why does Firefox sometimes put the New Tab "+" button to the left of my open tabs instead of to the right?

    ''dupe of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/932160''
    [Re-posted with additional details when I thought this post had failed. Please respond to the other post and ignore this one. My apologies for the duplication.]
    In some windows, seems more likely after a crash recovery (but not sure there's a connection), Firefox puts the New Tab "+" button to the left of my tabs instead of the right. This is annoying, because once you're used to clicking it to the right of your open tabs, it's confusing to sometimes find it to the left.
    If I go into Customize mode, it still shows the "+" tab on the right, but as soon as I close Customize, it's really still there on the left edge of the screen.
    Why does this happen and can I stop it? I have seen no reports of this problem posted by others, but it's been happening for me since at least Version 12 and not fixed by version 13.0.1.

    This may be related to session restore.

  • Sorting in new Numbers - problem?

    I tried to find a way to sort selected rows in the new Numbers version 3 that updates with
    Mavericks.    The Sort button is gone from the toolbar, and the support page at Apple
    only shows how to sort an entire column.
    I can't imagine they removed the ability to sort selected rows.  Numbers would be
    impossible to use without that function.  Hopefully I'm missing something here.
    Anyone know how to make it work?
    cheers
    david

    David,
    If you find new Numbers impossible to use, you can go back to Numbers V2.3. Don't forget to Submit Feedback to Apple in the Numbers menu before you go.
