Page view 2-up starts with a grey blank?

I want to produce a PDF where the first two pages are the back and front (respectively) of the cover of the book.
When I set 'Facing Pages' in the Document Inspector ... my first page is a grey blank, and the actual numbered first page is on the right side. Which, when I export to PDF is going to make all my pages out of sync with each other.
Any suggestions?

Anyone can link an image in a post in these forums. Here's a thread in Feedback about Discussions with the information you need.
I use InstantShot or Screenshot Plus Widget to capture the pictures & then GraphicConverter to crop & re-save them (you could use Preview). I have to use InstantShot timed screen for menus & to display Pages inspector properly. I also use ⌘ ⇧ 4 spacebar to capture a whole window. I use my iDisk for hosting the pictures.

Max,
Open your picture fileAccess the cookie cutter tool in the toolbox. On the tool's option bar, click on the fly-out for the crop shapes. Select the circular shape (it's all black). Hold down the shift key on the keyboard and drag out the circle to embrace what you wish to retain. You can drag the circle to adjust further, then crop.
To add text, get the type tool and type the text. This will be on a separate layer. Note that there are areas of transparency (checkerboard pattern) outside the circlular area.
Use the Paintbucket tool to fill these areas. The tool uses the foreground color.
Another option would be to place a layer below the circle layer and fill it with a pattern or whatever you want.
Feel free to repost if this is not clear.

How can I make textedit start with a new (blank) document?

How can I make textedit start with a new (blank) document?
Instead of it starting up with a dialogue box to select an existing or start a new document.

@Alley_Cat thanks for the ideas.
I turned off System Preferences > iCloud > Documents&Data - problem solved.
I'll use DropBox instead - it provides the options for a better experience. I hope Apple keep working on iCloud so that it doesn't go the way of Moble Me.

Can I use operator to view a scenario started with startscen.sh

Can a scenario started with startscen.sh be seen within operator? I run the scenario and the execution does not show up in operator.

All executions are shown in the operator. If it does not appear, then your odiparams file, which is read when you use startscen from the os, must be pointing to another repository.

I can not figure out how to set-up my home page so that it starts with Goggle, and then evrytime I open a new tab, it too opens with Goggle. TY 4 any help.

[email protected]

Firefox has always opened a blank new tab, if it opened to anything else that would be caused by an add-on. Check your add-ons to see if any offer this feature, or if any were disabled when you updated to Firefox 4.
The NewTabURL add-on can be used to open a page of your choice in new tabs - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl

How to get 2 up page view in portfolio

I have created a portfolio of 82 pages and am trying to get the view changed to start with the first page and then open up like a book with facing pages. I have set the initial view to "2 up" and saved the file this way, but it still shows as single pages with the thumbnails on the left. I also set the view to open with a cover page. I used to make these portfolios with "make pdf from multiple files" in Acrobat 7 and had no problem. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Hi Srikanth,
You may have to code it as below :-
* get the row index from the event
SPLIT htmlb_event_ex->event_defined AT '.' INTO lv_event lv_index.
* current row index
lv_row_index = lv_index.
* Find page number
lv_page_number = lv_row_index / 10. "Since you have 10 rows paer page
IF ( lv_row_index MOD 10 ) > 0.
* This is imp. if row index is not a multiple of 10 for eg. :- 43
lv_page_number = lv_page_number + 1.
ENDIF.
You'll get the current page number in variable - lv_page_number.
Thanks,
Ashish

My MacBook Pro will not start up. I only get a grey screen with the spinning wheel. No blue page appears and the grey screen remains. Tried starting with the Shift key but ineffective as well.

Can't get my MacBook Pro to start up. Have shut it down several times and tried restarting but all I get is a grey screen with the spinning icon. Apple Support online suggested starting with power button followed immediately with the shift key. Same results. Also tried power button with shift key, command, and V. Black screen appeared instead with lots of data language but still no starting. This final page was suppose to result in an internal system check and restart but nothing happened and the black screen remains.Where do I go from here? Scheduled for the Genius Bar tomorrow but would like to resolve this beforehand.

You may be having a hardware problem that you cannot resolve on your own. Nevertheless...
...hold down the command and R keys whilst booting to try to get to your Recovery partition. If you can, use Disk Utility to try to Verify your boot drive (usually named "Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it). If the verification fails, try to repair your hard drive. If everything appears to be OK, restart.
If you can't get into your Recovery partition, your problem is likely hardware related. If so, keep your appointment and see what the Apple techs have to say.

Suddenly Firefox starts with the last page viewed.

I'm running Firefox 24.0 on Windows 7. Suddenly when I start Firefox I wind up on the last page viewed, tabs and all. I went to Options, set it to blank. Went to about:config and made the change there. No luck.
I'm not certain, but I think this started with this week's Microsoft download.

You can check if you have an user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that sets the browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once pref to true.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

How do i get rid of the 'grey space' in document page view?

I am continually trying to 'center' the document and notice that there is a fixed width 'grey space' to the left of the white page. Is there a way to get rid of this?

The 'grey area' to the left of the working area (which is blue on my machine) shows the thumbnail of the page where you are currently entering or editing text. The only way i know to make it go away is to go View (menu) > Hide Page Thumbnails.
The grey vertical stripe to the right of the working page in the area beyond the edge of the defined page width set in Page Setup. It will show whenever your document window has been set wider than the page width at the current magnification.
You can remove that grey by enlarging the page, or by reducing the window width.
Pages documents align to the left edge of the working space in the window, and can't be moved from there.
Other actions you could take:
Use Full Screen mode (View > enter Full Screen) The removes all other material from the display, leaving an image of the page, centered left to right, and surrounded by a blank, black border. Depending on your window settings, you may also see a word count and an page number/page count displayed at the bottom of the screen.
If you want a plain, whiite (or other colour) margin for your document, try this:
Open a new, blank Pages document.
Use the View menu to hide all elements whose menu item starts with "Hide".
Set the view scale to 400%, using the control at the bottom left.
Drag the window to the left about twice as far as needed to hide the red amber and green gumdrops in the title bar.
Drag the control at the bottom right corner right (and down) to fill the window.
Drag the title bar right to hide the lozenge at the right end of the title bar.
Save the document as a Template, with the name "Blank white background"
To use:
Open ths template, then open the document you want to work on. Hide the Page Thumbnails of the work document, resize the document window to hold the page, with no grey area to the right. Reposition the document to be centered horizontally on the page.
Regards,
Barry

Firefox upon opening an image in a new tab, centers the image from top and bottom and surrounds the image with a grey frame. Just started having the problem today, searched Google to no avail.

Firefox upon opening an image in a new tab, centers the image from top and bottom and surrounds the image with a grey frame. Just started having the problem today, searched Google to no avail.

Oh wow, looks like a new feature.
The "page" links in a stylesheet with the address "resource://gre/res/TopLevelImageDocument.css". If you remove that reference, then the image displays in the old style.
'''''Edit: Please skip the rest of this post and check out the next one.'''''
There might be a more elegant solution than that, but you could use a bookmarklet to strip out that link when you want to view the page in its old style. A bookmarklet is a snippet of JavaScript you save on the Bookmarks toolbar for quick access.
First, copy the following code to the clipboard (it's all one long line):
<br>javascript:var ssheet=document.querySelector('link[href="resource://gre/res/TopLevelImageDocument.css"]'); if(ssheet)ssheet.parentNode.removeChild(ssheet); void 0;
Next, if you are not displaying the Bookmarks Toolbar, use View > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar to display it. (If you aren't using the classic Menu bar, press Alt+v to call up the old View menu. Right-clicking the gray area just below the page address also allows you to display the Bookmarks Toolbar.)
Right-click on the Bookmarks Toolbar (or Mac equivalent of right-click!) and choose New Bookmark.
Paste the code into the Location box (the second box).
Then type a useful name in the Name box (e.g., Oldstyle Picture) and click Add.
Now, when you want to tweak the image display, click the button to run the script.
Manual clicking is a hassle, so it might make sense to look into other solutions. (Greasemonkey didn't seem to work; I think it might not run on .jpg files.)

I am using Firefox 11 and I am unable to print web pages. I can print PDFs ok. I tried to open the prefs.js file to delete anything that starts with print and I get an error message.

I cannot print web pages. I've tried the solutions suggested like deleting anything that starts with print in the prefs.js file but I get an error message: Script: c:\users\rick\appdata\roading\mozilla\firefox\profiles\iviwh5c1.default\prefs.js
line: 1
Char: 1
Error: invalid character
code: 800A03F6
Source: Microsoft JScript compilation error

When editing '''prefs.js''' you need to use a simple text editor program. WinXP Notepad messes up the line formatting of prefs.js, so I use Wordpad - but you need to save the edited file in a Text-Only format (Wordpad asks about that when you go to save the edited file). I never used Win7, so I don't know if that version of Notepad messes with the line formatting of prefs.js or not.
Another thing - make sure '''''"Hide extensions for known file types"''''' is de-delected in Windows file / folder options > view -> advanced settings. Otherwise Windows may add a .txt file extension that you won't be able to see, and that will break that file in Firefox. '''prefs.js.txt''' won't be recognized by Firefox, when is expecting to find '''''prefs.js''''' .

? how to add page numbers in pages 5.2, starting with page 2. Pages '09 had an option to not show folio on page one. Also any idea how to do left and right folios for a Tabloid? Many thanks . . .

Hello jacquemac,
Your first question:
There might be a better way of achieving what you wish to do, but following these steps could help you out.
You might want to blend in Thumbnails and Invisibles either with (cmd+shift+i and cmd+alt+p) or over the View section in the Menubar.
1. go for Documents (right end of the Toolbar) -> Section
2. place your cursor at the very top of your second page and click "Create new Section->Starting with this page" in the side bar on your right.
(what you are actually doing next is setting the pagenumbers for each section you created. You can see your sections in the Thumbnail view.)
3. click on your first page (the first and only page of your first section) and mark the checkbox "Hide on first page of section"
4. click on your second page (the first page of your second section) and "Insert page number" -> start at 1
Your second question:
Im not quite sure i understand what exactly you want to do here. One page, two columns, each column with another page number? As far as i know this is not possible.
greetings jl

At work with the text at allocation by the cursor of the big fragment of page it is necessary to shift all time it downwards, "against the stop", but the page automatically does not start to rise upwards as occurs in other browsers. I ask the help!

After transition on Windows 7 there was a problem with Firefox. At work with the text at allocation by the cursor of the big fragment of page it is necessary to shift all time it downwards, "against the stop", but the page automatically does not start to rise upwards as it was earlier and as occurs in other browsers. It is necessary to press other hand a key "downwards" that is the extremely inconvenient. Reinstallation on earlier version (8.0) earlier irreproachably working, has given nothing. I ask the help

You need to enable the Add-ons bar (Firefox > Options or View > Toolbars; Ctrl+/) or the Find bar (Ctrl+F) to make Firefox scroll the page while selecting text.

New session started with an advertizing page and all my tabs are lost

New session started with an advertizing page and all my tabs are lost. Restore the previous session is not active. How can I restore my tabs?

This advice might come too late, but, don't exit Firefox! Or if you already did, don't start it back up again!
''If Firefox is running:'' Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This should launch a new window listed various files and folders. For best results, change the view to "Details".
(''If Firefox not running, get to this folder by pasting the following in the Run box on the start menu and pressing Enter: %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles and then double-click into the most recently updated semi-randomly-named folder you find there.'')
In the window that launches, scroll down and double-click into the '''sessionstore-backups''' folder. Save all files here to a safe location, such as your Documents folder, so Firefox doesn't overwrite them. We may be able to use them to recover your lost tabs.
Also, if you return to the main level of the profile folder, you may find some sessionstore files. Copy those to the safe location as well.
Could you report back on what you found?
Note: If Windows hides the .js file extension from you, you can change a setting so that you can see all file extensions (this helps when renaming files). This support article has the steps: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219 or http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hide-file-name-extensions
The kinds of files you may find among your sessionstore-backup files are:
* recovery.js: the windows and tabs in your currently live Firefox session (or, if Firefox is closed, your last session)
* recovery.bak: a backup copy of recovery.js
* previous.js: the windows and tabs in your last Firefox session
* upgrade.js-''build_id'': the windows and tabs in the Firefox session that was live at the time of your last update

Problem with Digital Editions page view

I used Digital Editions on two books just recently and was able to fit each page of the ebook to it's full height from top to bottom.
I just downloaded my third book to DE, and I can't seem to find the button to fit each page to their full heights (top/bottom). Instead, it's stuck on dual-page view. The single-page view button option isn't even there on the third book, but IS there on the first two books. I downloaded a fourth book and it's experiencing the same problem; stuck in dual-page view with no single-page option.
If I try to re-size the DE window to force it into a single page view, the page numbers are all messed up appearing at random spots of each page rather than at the top right where they are suppose to be.
I re-installed DE but the problem still persists. Is this a problem with the books in specific? Or something else?
Thanks
