Pages 5.2 won't allow differently colored sub-bullets in lists as it did in previous versions.

MY MAIN QUESTION:
Prior to Pages 5, I had a template than included a green bullet (with black in the text) with a sub-indented bullet that was blue. Now, in Pages 5.2 (Mavericks) I find it very hard to recreate this using styles and/or lists. Whenever I change the color of the sub-bullet, it changes the color of the main bullet. Any thoughts on this?
SECONDARILY
The list and styles functions in Pages 5.2 are somewhat complicated. I wish there were some sort of tutorial on the best way to use these. I like the ability to tab to the next bullet indent, but not sure how to set the various styles for the indent. Are lists independent of styles? Or are they connected. Not sure.

Nah... I don't believe in hanging on to outdated software, even if it is superior in some ways or if I'm just used to it. I'd rather learn how to use the newer version to my advantage and deal with the shortcomings. It is a losing battle to try to "stick it out" with the older software, especially if you want to update your OS and take advantage of it. Eventually, it won't work and you limit yourself by sticking to the old software. I DO believe in complaining and submitting feedback to the developer to let them know stuff is not up to snuff. But, I'll say, any new software has a learning curve and a degree of adaptation required if you are not used to using it. When I went from Word to Pages back in 2008 or 2009, I lost a lot of functionality, but I learned to deal with it and ended up appreciating Pages versus Word. For the most part, the transition to the new Pages, hasn't been that bad... there have been a few things I've had to change and adapt to, but I do like the new Pages in many ways. The bullet point thing is annoying though and I'd like to figure out a decent solution, but it does not make me regret using Pages 5 on the whole. Plus, I have multiple employees, and would like us all to be using the same software.

Firefox 6 will not allow you to paste a cookie into the addressbar like all previous versions have. I use software to replace web chat and must do this and have been able to do it in all past versions. What's the deal?

Thank you for your response.
After searching around for any pointers to my problem, the above fixes I listed were the things that came closest to maybe addressing the issue, that I was able to locate. But since none worked, and as you pointed out, it is now clear they will only help towards viewing sent images rather than helping with inserting any images in the body of the email, which is the problem I suddenly started facing today.
Coming to your suggestion, on opening the Write window, the Insert choice on the menu bar is indeed available. And I had already tried using that, by clicking on the '''Insert ----> Image''' option listed. That opens
up the "Image Properties" box but using that has not resolved the matter either. It results in an image box getting inserted within the email but without the actual image itself.
Plus, normally I am able to use the '''Paste''' function in the Edit menu or through right-click, but today the (Cut/Copy/Paste) functions have gone inactive, thereby disallowing me to use that to place an image within the email.

9.0.1 won;t allow a pdf to open without locking up; I want an older version

After downloading 9.0.1 I can't open a pdf I was previously able to open. Even worse, once I try, everything on the page becomes immune to my cursor and when I close the browser and try to reopen, even hours later, I'm told Firefox is already running.
Since I don't even like this version already, (doesn't show progress of download) what I really need to know is how to get the previous version back.

Tried it on both 9.0.1 and 3.5.17 after I dumped the new one. Still doesn't work but it might be the particular pdf giving the problem although it opens just fine on Chrome and IE. Guess I'll make Chrome my default.

Render clouds won't accept different colors

CS6 won't render clouds in anything other than black and white, no matter what color foreground/background I select. Rendering clouds works fine using Elements 12 on same computer (Mac OS X Yosemite v10.10)

No idea, but you can always apply a Gradient Map adjustment to colorize it.

HT5312 How do I reset my security questions I'm on this page but it won't allow me to do anything?

I can't reset my security questions when to the page but it did not allow me to do anything?

The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
    1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
          Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
          bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
          'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
          ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
          phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.
     2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support or
          Apple ID- Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security. Ask to speak to

Recently when I attempt to save a Pages document it won't allow me the option. The SAVE button is not bolded as an option to click on. Any ideas how to fix this?

Recently I have not been able to save Pages notes/documents that I have created. I have never had this problem before. When I attempt to SAVE, the button isn't bolded so I don't have the option to save. Any ideas on how to fix it?

Hi Peter, I appreciate any ideas you might have. I tried Apple support and I ended up at some 'unavailable' voicemail!?!!
I am using Pages '09.
It's not being auto saved.
I typically save to both pages and document files but I can't save anything. When I go to close it and it asks me if I want to save, the save window comes up but the SAVE button isn't bolded as an option. I have tried Command C but of course it brings me back to the same window. This only began happening a few days ago. I use Pages a lot.

Pages on iPad won't allow me to group items. Why?

On my iPad 2, while using Pages, I am having problems getting the group opion to show. I have selected each item, but the only option is cut, copy, and delete. I've done it beore, so I know it should be there. What should I do?

According to the Pages Help, when items can't be grouped it may be because they may be set to "Move With Text" in the "Wrap" section of the Arrange Inspector. In order to group items, turn OFF "Move With Text" for each item to be grouped, then try selecting them again by tapping on the first item, then holding that while you tap on the remaining item(s), then tap once on any of the selected items. This should reveal the Group option.
Good luck.

MacBook Pro - Hard Drive replaced now external won't allow me to view any of my back ups from my previous hard drive that crashed folders have red circle with minus sign in them and says I don't have permission, how do I get around this?

My MacBook Pro's hard drive failed a little while back and the hard drive was replaced, however all my items on my external were linked to that hard drive apparently, now I can't get into my back up files for my business as I'm getting an error telling me I don't have permission to view the files, I can't figure out how to over ride this setting to get to my stuff for my business which is really NOT GOOD for my clients or the contracts I'm under, does anyone know how to get past this and get the external to work like it is supposed to?

Select the drive and Finder > Get info and at the bottom "ignore permissions on this volume"
You can copy the files, but the ownership on the files still belongs to the other user account, once your done copying, then perform a #6 Reset Users Permissions and that will set all the ownership to that account.
..Step by Step to fix your Mac
Another method is to copy the entire folder, then change it's permissions.

Is there a way to change the individual color (rgb) channels of a clip, like in the previous version of iMovie?

I loved this feature in the older versions of iMovie for editing my underwater scenes to get ride of the greenish tint. Now I only see a color temperature slider adjustment in the new iMovie, but that doesn't give me enough control. Is there a way to get each color channel edit back?

iMovie version 10 doesn't have the individual RGB gain controls that version 9 does.
You'll find that version 9 was left behind in your Applications folder when you upgraded to 10.

OK - I just did the update and now when I bring up a second screen the Back Page, Reload and Stop loading does not work. So I guess I'll install the previous version. Anyone else having this problem?

It's version 3.6.12. Anyone else having this problem?

You have to download and run the upgrader then launch iPhoto. Go to the utilities folder in Applications and launch the iPhoto upgrader. Then launch iPhoto and it will upgrade the library

Using search pages (i.e. Google) how can I get a different color on a link (website) that I have previously visited? It used to work that way, but now every link is the same color.

I use Firefox 4.0.1 & Windows 7 Home Premium Edition. In the Options/Contents/Color setting I have the "Allow Pages To Use Their Own Colors" box checked. I tried checking "Use System Colors" with 2 different colors selected for Unvisited Links & Visited Links, but it does not work, & in addition, the Use System Colors messes up my normal view(s). I just want to be able to differentiate between Visited & Unvisited Links. Thank you.

Hi,
Agree with Holger, I check on my Lync Windows Store app and can't find the meeting URL as well.

My iPad has a different Apple ID than the Apple ID on my computer. The iPad Apple ID has an email address that I no longer use. If I try to add the email address that I now use (and which is my Apple ID on the computer), it won't allow me to add it.

My iPad has a different Apple ID than the Apple ID on my computer. The iPad Apple ID has an email address that I no longer use. If (while on the iPad) I go to My Apple ID and try to change or add the email address that I now use (and which already is my Apple ID on the computer), it won't allow me to add it. It says : "Email address is already verified for another Apple ID" I haven't really been aware of this as a problem until I tried (for the first time) to sync my iPad to the computer and became aware that certain things wouldn't transfer. What is the solution to this?

What are you having problems with ?
This post was about having updated the primary email address on an iTunes account via a computer - if you do that you might need to log out of the account on an iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in with the updated version of the account for that email address change to be recognised on your iPad. If you don't log out and back in then an iPad (or iPhone or iPod Touch) might continue to show the old version of the iTunes account id.

How do i get rid of warning popups from FF like FF won't allow this page to open?

Simply put every time I try to open a page Firefox always pops up a warning box that says do I want to allow FF to open this page or some other such nonsensical idiocy! If I didn't want to open the blasted page would I have entered it in the first bloody place? I have my pop ups enabled for all pop ups already and that does not work either. What I want is this- NO WARNINGS FROM FF ABOUT ANYTHING AT ALL!!- How do I accomplish this major miracle? I run Firefox 3.6.16 because FF4 crashes more than 16 does. 16 works like crap too and won't allow imports from IE or Opera, Chrome or Orca or even Cometbird. I cannot file for my unemployment comp unless I can get rid of this pop up and fast! Can anyone help me? Please? Thanks I hope- JKMc/keimanzero

That seems to work for when I run the page through the iSupplier portal. However I noticed during development when I am testing the page on my computer, I am still getting this message? Is there anyway to get rid of it on the client side? I assume that profile is set correctly on the development instance which you are using from JDEV.
Sometimes you need apache bounce to make sure the profile option change come into effect.
So do a apache bounce.
