Oops -- help with the little things
Somehow, my beginning post was submitted before I wrote it . . . sorry.
Anyway, I'm trying to move to iWork '08. I've played around with it a little, and found some things I can't figure out, even using the help menu extensively.
Is there any "drag and drop" ability? I can't find it . . .
I've been working with tables to put in some simple things, and I can't seem to highlight all the text in the table to assign it a style -- I have to manually drag the curser over the text in one cell at a time.
Is there any way to paste text and make any hyperlinks in it appear as regular text, without changing everything so that all hyperlinks come in as plain text?
Thanks!

1. There's *drag and drop* ability. I have tried dragging an image file, a PDF file into Pages document and it successfully insert the image in.
2. You should be able to select the cells in the table and assign a style to it. Place your cursor at one of the cell (it should have a blue border around it), click on the cell and drag across the table to select multiple cells, and then click on the style that you intend to change. Alternatively, you may also click on the entire table (it should have the resize handles at all the sizes) and change the style.
I'm sorry if it wasn't clear -- I should have asked "can you use drag and drop on text?" I haven't tried what you did; I've started with text and can't get anything except a regular curser.
Thanks for the info on styles in tables -- I did get that to work.

if anyone has ether had this happen to them can u tell me and if you no how to fix it please tell
Recovery Mode is how to start all over again on your iPad like new. It erases everything, even the operating system, and reloads directly from Apple. Once that is done, if you have performed a backup of your iPad in the past, you will be able to restore all of your configuration settings and preferences after the reload occurs.
To prepare for a recovery mode restore, have the following ready:
- Your computer (plugged in to power) ready with iTunes up and running
- Your iPad synch cable plugged into your computer but NOT your iPad
- Make sure your iPad is at least at 20% battery, preferably higher
NOTE: Do NOT touch the iPad once recovery begins. Make sure your computer doesn't suspend, sleep, or shut down while the process is going on.
Steps:
- Sitting next to your computer, take your iPad (which should NOT be connected to your PC) and hold down the sleep button (on the top of the iPad) and the home button (front of the iPad) at the same time
- After about 10-15 seconds, the unit will power off (do not do anything when the "slide to power off" screen appears, just keep holding the buttons)
- When the iPad turns back on, you will see the silver Apple appear on the screen. Continue holding down the home button but release the sleep button and immediatly plug the iPad into your computer running iTunes
- You should see a symbol appear on the iPad with a picture of a USB cable with an arrow pointing to the iTunes logo. iTunes will then say that it detected an iPad in recovery mode.
- Let iTunes restore the device. It will download a fresh copy of firmware, install it, and verify the SW.
NOTE: This may take a while. iTunes needs to download about 500MB from the Apple server, then it will start the loader on the iPad, and load the OS.
- After iTunes said that is successfully restored your device, you may get an error message saying the iPad isn't recognized and you're still at the screen with the USB cable and iTunes logo on the iPad. Don't sweat it. Unplug the iPad from the computer. Power off the iPad by holding the sleep button until you see the "slide to power off" - go ahead and slide to power off. Once it is shut down, push the sleep button again until it powers on.
- the iPad will come back to the familiar USB cable/iTunes logo. When it does, just plug it back into your computer and iTunes will activate the iPad.
- if you had previously backed up your iPad, iTunes will tell you there is a backup and ask if you would like it restored. If you wish to do this, accept the prompt. This will also take some time. Note it will NOT put your apps, music, movies, TV shows, etc back on your iPad, just your settings and preferences.
- once the restore is complete, iTunes should recognize your iPad and you can pick your synching options (apps, music, movies, etc, etc) and have a blast! The only thing I noticed it doesn't retain is the page layouts for your apps, so either screen capture them before you begin, or write it down.
I hope this helps -
ok, so my itouch 2nd gen starts up only to the apple logo but stops there with the loading thing that looks like a flower. it doesnt connect to my laptop either. it got unplugged while trying to restore it on my laptop and now its not rly working. any help? i alredy tried holding both buttons down like more than 100 times and it still doesnt work. so any solutions?
Try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then try restoring the iPOd via iTunes. For recovery mode see:

My screen is black on my iPhone with the little circle in the middle like it is powering down. It's been like this for over an hour! Help
Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears. If it hasn't appeared after 30 seconds your phone is probably broken. If something other than an Apple logo appears see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808.

This may seem basic, but I just discovered that I do not have a share button (the one with the little arrow jumping out) to the left of my address bar on Safari for my Mac. I do have one on my IPad and use it often. Can anyone tell me why my Mac is missing this icon and how to get it? Thanks.

I went in to do the software update, and learned that my software is up to date.
Going from Lion to Mountain Lion is considered an upgrade (because it is not free), not an update.
So yes, given that you have Lion, you are up to date. But if you can, you might consider going to Mountain Lion for a fee.
Here's what you need to do the upgrade:

Goodbye BT - It's the little things
Its the little things that matter so much. Like not sending you your introductory voucher, sending you promises it will be in the post. Putting up prices arbitrarily. **bleep** you off the most. Charging if you don't pay direct debit and then helping yourself. Adding a couple of quid for paper billing and going e-mail without your consent. Telephone help in India where the people works-in-dark-in-early-hours-of-the-morning-very-helpful-to-tell-you-what-I-am-reading-off-the-scre...en. Raising the prices again. Giving you the opportunity to subscribe to special offer discount that isn't and tie you into a new contract for 24 months. Minefield of options when you call then hangs up after ad nauseam please-hold Smetana's Má vlast. Goodbye BT. I hope it is the last. FFFFFFFF-rown. Disconnect fee. Keeping paid in advance charges. Not our policy to give you a refund. Now you see the cockroaches in the contract. Pull the plug and leave you high and dry. Deny you pulled the plug and keep the billing going - that's Technical We're accounts. It shows you are still contact on our computer. We must be right. It is the little things.
Spot on JSTTESCONET !
The only thing I'd disagree with you about is these are Big things not Little things.
It must be so depressing working for BT and knowing that they have such an appalling reputation. My heart goes out to their employees who need a job but can't find another employer. -

Mackeeper is a horrible preoduct. Get rid of it immediately. It's hard to troubleshoot anything else with MacKeeper in the way.

Can you also clarify what version of the Mac OS you have? "10.0.0" as shown in your profile will not run on a 2008 iMac. Doing "About this Mac" from your Apple menu will show your actual version, as in this example:
The OS version is indicated by the upper red arrow I added. -

Basically I´m thrilled with this update, which I haven´t got yet.
Among others the elastic audio features -Yes, the term "elastic" is used in promo material-And from the video I´ve seen, it seems much more straigtforward than Pro Tools.
But the little things:
#1 The graphics department. Are you ever struggling to get a volume curve right? Zoom in, zoom in.
PT is much more accurate here. In other words, Logic can be very clumsy.
Not to mention the famous double spl´s and the "suddenly" diminished mixer window.
#2 Wouldn´t it be nice to open sample editor in place, so it corresponds to the position in arrange?
(#3 No, I know!: Selecting i.e 8 drum tracks to make a common fade out, No! (You can use the inspector, numerically))
#4 Does the new package include a decent de-esser?
#5 Got the Waves GTR3. Was that a waste of money, compared to the Amp Designer?
(well not exactly a little thing)
And more of course. Curious to hear your opinions.

ok 2 things why do you get so little data on the 45 dollar plan when most apps take so much to run. They should give at least 2 gb of data for that one then they would get more happy customers to sign up.
It is up to the customer to choose the plan with the amount of data for their needs. If you want 2 GB of data, choose a plan which has 2 GB of data. Don't choose a plan lower in price without enough data for your needs. There are plenty of people for which 1 GB of data is plenty for a month of service.
You simply seem to be unhappy with Verizon's prices. Verizon will lower their prices if and when pressure from the market forces them to do so. Unfortunately for you, that will probably mean Verizon will STILL have a 1 GB plan AND a 2 GB plan with the 1 GB plan being lower in price than the 2 GB plan. I am sure you will then complain Verizon has "so little data on the $35 plan when most apps take so much to run" when the $45 plan could possibly have 2 GB of data just like you wanted. -
why is it ok for a verizon wireless service representative to lie to a customer? I went over my monthly data and i called to ask for some help with the overage because i was barely over. They told me they would take care of it and sold me on a shared data plan that would result in 2gb less data but told me i would save 20$ a month. I agreed and recieved my next statement and to my suprise my bill actually went up 15$ a month and i talked to several people and they all told me there is nothing that can be done to get back on the plan i was on and they can not even give me a discount to get me back to what i was paying. They can only offer me a convenience credit. I will be cancelling service.
ajwest101,
We do not want to see you go. I truly apologize for any misinformation regarding your plan. Let's investigate into this a little further. What plan were you on? What plan were you switched to? If you look at the detailed billing online of your previous bill do you see any additional charges other then the plan?

Need help with the contstant blinking amber light
I tried to go into Airport Utility to setup some features on my Airport Extreme N and could not find the device in the list. I have tried to rescan a good number of times, the soft, hard and factory resets, tried reinstalling the software and I have tried to connect to through my desktop via Ethernet. Actually, this is the configuration that I am using to write this post. I can also connect to the Airport Extreme via my iPhone4, which is the sole purpose I bought this thing.
Thanks in advance for the help.Trippe wrote:

Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
I have tried to connect to through my desktop via Ethernet.
If you have a Mac, connecting it to a LAN port on the Extreme with an Ethernet cable should allow AirPort Utility to see the Extreme, presuming that's what you mean you did. (If you have a non-Mac system, there's probably a way to do something similar, but I can't help with the details.) If that's not working -
I need Help with the dynamic link feature in CS3
Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me with an issue I am having? I have the adobe cs3 master collection. Having watched tutorials on the dynamic link feature my version seems not to have the same options as those I have viewed. I wish to send my premiere video creation to encore using dynamic link, however when I click "file" and then "adobe dynamic link" the only options available are about "adobe after effects". I can export to encore however I am only alloowed to export one premiere sequence to one new encore file, I cannot create an encore file and import several premiere sequence into the same encore project. That means currently I can only have an encore creation with one premiere sequence in it, and I have no adobe dynamic link. Any help anyone could offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks very much for that guys but my premiere media encoder only lets me export as: MPEG1, MPEG1-VCD, MPEG2, MPEG2 blu-ray, MPEG2-DVD, MPEG2-SVCD, H.264, H.264 blu-ray, Adobe Flash Video, Quicktime, Real Media, Windows Media. Are any of these formats DV AVI?
Am I to export my videos direct to encore or save them elsewhere (e.g desktop). It seems that I cannot export sequences from different premiere projects to the same encore project.
Sorry if any of these questions seem obvious, I am just new to premiere and keen to do things right from the off.
Many thanks again guys.

Harm is correct. For SD DVD, exporting as a DV AVI file from Pr will give you good results. Encore's Automatic Transcoding will give you maximum quality for the available disc space.

Everything on my screen, Mac Pro, shrunk! Gmail, bookmark pane, task bar menu, even the password sign in. I'm sure I did something with the fingers thing. How do I get back to default. The font is tiny, tiny. My operationg system is Mavericks.
Thank you for the list, I will print and keep it handy.
Contol F3 makes my whole screen larager or smaller.
Command option 8 does nothing that I can see.
Command option + or - will zoom in or out on the page I am on but if I change windows it reverts.
But bookmarks pane, the task bar, the password sign in and even the post I am writing (actually every printed word), are a font so small I almsost need a magnifiying glass. This includes web pages too!
I am using Mavericks.
Trying to retrace my steps when this happened. Nothing unusual, I was using airplay to watch a You Tube segment on the tv. I don't think that is related.
I really appreciate your help and comments on this. I can usualy google and find and answer, but to no avail with this one! -
