No Automatic Save function in Pages?

How many times have I lost docs because forgot to save before the battery ran out or had a crash or something else? Is there now auto-save function that can be set for every few minutes? Why not?!!!

Peter,
I've tried Eversave and eventually gave up on it. There were times I'd open an existing file and Eversave would immediately ask about saving it (not always, just at times). I'd start a new file and again Eversave would ask about saving it. It got so that it was just a nuisance. I set the time interval to 10 min. and chose standard Eversave function. Often it waited 10 minutes, but at times it was shorter. If I recall correctly, it asked to save even when Pages was inactive for the 10 minutes.
I'd prefer a more intelligent autosave app.
Is it saving every 10 minutes or
saving every 10 minutes if the document was modified ?
My script apply the second scheme.

How does one ensure an automatic save function every 5 mins for any document you are working on. Yesterday I erased a doc I was on and had to rework from the start.

Well I understand that auto save is already present and saving your doc every 5 mins. But then why do you think, this did not happen yesterday in the following case?? I wrote one page of a long document and wanted to format it before proceeding. I selected the part to be formatted and instead erased it. I could not find that page again. I had to rewrite the matter.

Is there a simple "Save" function in pages?

Hi. After opening up a previously saved (.doc) document and written a few more paragraphs, is there an option to simply click save without having to go through the "save as" or "export" process again? Is there a function similar to Word's "Save"?
Thanks and much appreciated.

Hi. Yep thanks for that.
I know command + S is automatic save if you were saving the document as a iWorks document. But command + S does not automatically save if the format is a doc. Does that question make sense?

When saving, try "Save As" but make sure "Include preview in document" is NOT selected.

My MacBook pro mid 2012 doesn't seem to have a "save as" function, so I can't seem to save multiple page pdf's together after moving thumbnails into the sidebar. It only saves the first page. I can't figure out the rename function either. Help?

I do have a 2008 version of Microsoft Office installed to save money, but that shouldn't affect things. I can't figure out the "rename" function either. Help?

Oh, and I also reset my NVRAM, my computer hasn't frozen again yet, so I'm not sure if it has made a difference.

How do i get pages to automatically save as a .docx format?

I can export to a word format, but how can I get it to automatically save as one?

Pages is not a Word substitute, it saves to .pages files.
You Export to Word .doc/x.
If you want a Word substitute try LibreOffice [free].

You will get a link to my Applescript which not only autosaves but keep consecutive datestamped copies so, if the last saved copy appears to be a corrupted one, you may get the preceeding one.

I have a site I do business with. They do not authorize passwords unless a dealer. I do no have on an auto save function, as I want to type my passwords in ea

I have a site I do business with. They do not authorize passwords unless you are a dealer. I do not have passwords on an auto save function, as I want to type my passwords in each time for security. My password for this site will only work a short WHILE, AND THEN it will not be recognized by the site and I cannot get in.
Then I must contact the company to reset or clear it manually on their end so it can be reset. They always give me the SAME SETUP PASSWORD to use. I use it, then I RESET PASSWORD on my end. The computer seems to remember my user NAME AT least on my computer as it comes up once I start typing the username in. They SAY IT is a settings issue on my end. I do not have this problem on any other site even THOSE WITH higher SECURITY. I need to FIX the issue OR may LOSE ACCESS To the site as is very aggravating for them and they say other have had the problem but usually with chrome but never constantly.I am not that computer literate ,but my husband is an IT Security professor and textbook writer but says doesn't really know Firefox. I do not really want to store passwords on computer as have been hacked several times. He and I do not understand some of the terms mentioned. since it is not a problem with other sites it should be fixable. Please me help using terms I or my husband can understand without having to give Firefox all my passwords. I would be happy to set up something different just for this one site if I need to but need easy instructions. Have cleared the cookies before but it still happens. What setting do I need to change or set to fix this? the other questions that come up seem very different and do not apply. FF 22 now but happened w other FF versions.

I'm having a little trouble understanding the part about your password having to be reset. Why is that happening??
Let's start with Firefox's settings:
(1) You can configure the password manager feature on this tab:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Security
There is a checkbox to enable/disable the feature.
There also is a "Saved Passwords" button to review and remove any passwords you do not want Firefox to keep.
That tab also has a feature to set a Master Password so that no one can use your saved passwords without knowing the Master Password. You may need to exit Firefox in order for Firefox to ask for that again.
Related articles:
* [[Password manager - Remember, delete and change saved passwords in Firefox]]
* [[Use a Master Password to protect stored logins and passwords]]
(2) Site-specific permissions
If you want to use the password manager for other sites but NOT a particular site, you can configure that in the Permissions Manager.
In a new tab, type or paste '''about:permissions''' in the address bar and press Enter.
After the page loads, use the search box in the upper left corner to narrow down the list to the site you want to configure. Highlight the site on the left side, and on the right side, choose Block under Store Passwords.
(3) Form autocomplete suggestions
Separate from passwords, Firefox remembers entries you've made into forms (in most cases) and lists the matching ones below the form field in a drop-down.
To clear a suggestion, press the down arrow key to highlight it and press the Delete key.
To turn off this feature, see this article: [[Control whether Firefox automatically fills in forms with your information]].
To review and selectively edit or delete form history entries, you need an add-on. For example, you could try this one: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/form-history-control/

How can I get a song to play automatically on a web page ? iWeb 1.1.2

Can I get a song to play automatically when my web page opens? iWeb 1.1.2

As long as you don't mind doing a little post publish editing of your .js files, it's fairly easy to do. You will find them in this path on your iDisk, using the Go menu in Finder:
Go/iDisk/MyiDisk/Sites/iWeb/Nameofsitefolder/Page_filesFolder/Page.js
Open the .js files for that particular page on your iDisk with any text editor (I like Taco, and it's free) and make the following changes to the script code that controls your movie: (you will find the movie code near the top of the page in the .js file)
Change autoplay="false" to autoplay="true"
Change loop="false" to loop="true"
Changing controller value="true" to controller value="false" will remove the controller from the page entirely. Make these changes in both sets of tags, (object and embed).
Make the changes and just "Save". Clear your browser cache and you should see the changes take effect immediately. Bear in mind you will have to make this modification each time you republish your site. You can also save this modified .js file and replace the republished file with it, as long as no other changes were made to the page in iWeb.

HT1750 Pages, This document can't be opened because it's too old. To open it, save it with Pages 09 first still can't open pages document

I recently purchased a new Mac and I am having difficulty opening older Pages documents.
Pages, This document can't be opened because it's too old. To open it, save it with Pages 09 first still can't open pages document

Either you have access to Pages ’08 v3, Pages ’09 v4, or neither. One of these older, but more functional versions of Pages can open, and export the document in question to Word. Preview on OS X 10.9.5 and Yosemite can view Pages ’08 documents (in my experience). It is not obvious to me that Preview may be using the installed Pages ’09 v4.3 to assist in opening these '08 documents.
Once opened in Preview, you can select/paste text into Pages v5.2.2, or v5.5. If you want the images from the PDF, then export it from Preview as PDF, and then drag/drop onto latest free LibreOffice icon in the Dock, which will open the PDF for editing. Select, copy, and paste the images into Pages v5, or incorporate into Text boxes, or Shapes. When pasted, images will be in their original size/resolution, not necessarily as small as they appear in the PDF.
If the second paragraph is a chore, then follow Peggy's advice above on the sources for purchase of Pages ’09.
In the future, I would not recommend trusting document architecture to Apple, and use a more accessible format (.doc/x) for better cross-platform access, longevity, and application choice. You may find LibreOffice, or Office for Mac 2011 a better choice for features.

Coding to automatically save PDF to location

I have created an editable PDF, I have also created a button so that the person completing the form can press to submit and clears the form for the next candidate. What I also want the button to do is rather than bring up the Save as dialogue box, automatically save to a folder on the desk top. Can you help me with the coding I need to add in Livecycle to do this?

Well,
for a silent saveAs function, you will have to install a custom folder level script on each computer you wanna use the form.
You also have to ensure that the target folder is already present on those computers.
Reader won't create the folder by itself, if it doesn't exist.
Here a few threads you should read first.

Automatically Save

I’m new to JavaScript and to LiveCycle ES2 and I am having some trouble with a form I designed. It’s a little crude, but for the most part it works. It is an internal form for staff only and once completed, I need to save it in a shared folder without changing the name. If I used the SaveAs function that pops up the window and gives an option of where to save, it is impractical and would mess up the invoice number incrementing if saved in the wrong place. I need to have it automatically save to a specific location and file name when the button to email the form is completed. Can this be done with JavaScript? (I'm new at this so not too technical, please - I confuse easily)

How to supress automatic save ..

Hi,
Ours is a Siebel 8.0. We have a requirement to implement a UI workflow for our users to
(1) dis-allow or suppress automatic save of a record (say, Opportunity or Activity) when user creates a new record or updates an existing one
(2) when user steps off the applet after an attempted creation or update, prompt him/her to hit a SAVE (or similar) button to initiate the record save (CREATE or UPDATE).
I'm sure this is a common requirement from many companies where they are used to the SAVE functionality.
Any thoughts on how to go about this one, will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Albert

Hi Albert,
Here are the steps you might want to take to resolve this issue, remember the solution is bassed on scricpting.
1. Create a "Save" button on applet
2. On Applets PreInvokeMethod event write the following code to set the profile attribute for the method invoked by button
     if (MethodName == "SaveRec")
          TheApplication().SetProfileAttr("SaveRec","Y");
          return(CancelOperation);
3. On BC'c PreWriteRecord event write the following code
if (TheApplication().GetProfileAttr("SaveRec")!= "Y")
          TheApplication().RaiseErrorText("Please click on Save Rec Button to save your changes");
          return(CancelOperation);
else
     return (ContinueOperation);
4. Now on BC's WriteRecord event write the following code to reset the profile attribute
TheApplication().SetProfileAttr("SaveRec","N");
5. Compile your changes and test throughly.
Hope this helps.
Regards
