Pages 5 Where is Advanced Find

I got the new Pages 5 yesterday and for the life of me I cannot figure out the Advanced Find & Replace for invisible characters. My heart sank when I ran into this blank wall.
I was able to breathe again when I found I still had an old copy of Pages 4 so I could continue to work. I'm constantly reformatting doccuments, cleaning them up, removing extra spaces, tabs, carriage returns and and it was quite easy in the old Pages
Am I missing something, or is it just plain missing?

While I waited for someone to chime in to tell me the secret of where Advanced Find & Replace got buried or come up with some arcane key combo to invoke it, as I had time, I dug through other threads, MDN, etc. to find other numerous reports like mine, so it appears it is indeed gone.
So many words in my head to describe this: disastrous, inexcusable, ***!
How could any modern word processor be considered a valid tool without this BASIC function.
I picked up on another fly in this ointment of disappointment. It's the iPad GOTCHA that you get no warning for. I saw this in another thread so felt the need to write it up in this reply.
If you upgrade your Pages for iPad in iTunes or accept it on the iPad or iPhone from v1.7.2 to v2.0, the nasty surprise is that the file format is not backwards compatible with Pages 4 for desktop. If you open the file in the new iPad Pages, it updates the file format so locks you out of it on the desktop Pages 4 if you work in the iCloud. I am not EVEN going to experiment with this bit of nastiness to corroborate it. My time and work are too valuable to play Russian Roulette for fun.
I dearly hope that all made a fresh Time Machine backup before all of this began. I navigated to the folder of apps and set the way back machine to a week ago and thankfully, found the old version and was able to downgrade my iPad.
Be very careful when hitting that Update All button in iTunes or you could get yourself in a pickle. I don't know if there's a way to isolate a particular app from the Update All stream.

  • On installation of Firefox 4 beta, it tells me that it won't run on my Mac. When I go to system requirements, it takes me to a page for Firefox3.6 requirements. Where can I find the requirements for the beta?

    The link to system requirements for Firefox 4 beta takes you to a page that gives you the requirements for Firefox 3.6 instead. I assume that the requirements for the beta are different as I can't seem to install the beta on my Macs. Where can I find the beta system requirements?

    I never expected Mozilla to neglect the users of Apple's PowerPC (PPC) computers, while still supporting much older operating environments such as Windows XP. So, I should just throw away a $6,000 system, which is still fast and functional, and contribute masses of heavy metals to land-fills because…?
    I'm hurt and confused after supporting Firefox for many years — installing and using it not only on my own computers but on most of my customers' computers. Now I have to tell my customers with PPC Macs they can't have a secure cross-platform browsing experience from Mozilla. They'll have to learn to use some other browser, or buy a new computer.
    If one doesn't buy a new computer every year, one doesn't deserve Firefox 4. This is sort of sounding more like a Microsoft™© doctrine. (But wait, I can still have Firefox 4 on a ''SERIOUSLY CRAPPY WINDBLOWS XP pile of rubbish?!'') Please open your eyes Mozilla. This just doesn't make sense.

  • Where can I find detailed, systematic HELP for advanced topics relating to Thunderbird?

    In moving from XP to Windows 7, I opted for Thunderbird as email client in order to bypass Microsoft's hyper-intrusive Windows Live Mail (I used Outlook Express for years).
    I have a very complicated email structure, and it's taken me weeks (seriously) to learn how to replicate it in TBird. Now I'm trying to customize TBird further, but none of the TBird articles/forum Q&A's/Google searches address my questions.
    There is no live tech support for TBird, and I'm just about ready to leave it for good. However -- one last effort: where can I find detailed, systematic HELP for advanced topics relating to Thunderbird?
    Thanks.

    I am no expert, but I don't know of any authoritative reference as to what elements of HTML and CSS are supported in Thunderbird. However, as I believe you appreciate, it's more than just what Thunderbird supports, but one must also think about what is likely to work in other email clients. Keep it simple. Avoid ancient deprecated tags that other email clients may not support, and for similar reasons, avoid cutting edge technology. Remember that recipients using tablets or smartphones won't appreciate large fancy email documents.
    The only thing ''guaranteed'' to work in email is plain text. ;-)
    If you haven't already discovered it, the Stationery add-on is designed specifically to support OE stationery in Thunderbird. Your existing stationery may "just work" in this add-on. It makes switching between various stationery templates much easier, but I'm not confident that it will affect interpretation of your CSS or HTML coding.
    Your code is at least clean and minimal. Most times my involvement with troublesome templates and signatures centres on the horrible bloat and mso custom code generated by Word or Outlook.
    Having said that, you and I are mortal enemies, as I don't have much patience with what you aspire to achieve. I specifically don't like background images, nor being obliged to suffer other folks' bizarre choice of typefaces and colours (but your simple 12pt black Tahoma is quite inoffensive. ;-) ) I'm of an age where my tolerance and eyesight are easily offended.
    Nonetheless, I'm intrigued by how to parse the tag for the background image, as it doesn't look like a legitimate pathname to a graphics file. Does the background image actually appear as required?

  • Where can I find a users blog web page on the server?

    I know I can access the blog from the internet (http://myserver.com/users/username). I have a link on our web site set up for surfers to access this blog. I want to add a last updated line but the code [updated: <!--#flastmod virtual="http://mysever.com/users/username/" -->] obviously won't work because I need the actual web page name. Just what is this name? Where can I find it?

    There is no file, so you can't use this approach.
    The blog content is written in a database format, and the page is built dynamically when it's requested pulling the latest content from the database.
    The #flastmod will only look at the filesystem and return the modification date of a file.
    In order to get the modification date of the blog (i.e. the most recent post), you're going to have to query the database, which can't be done with a server-side includes tag.

  • Where can I find a list of the keyboard shortcuts for editing a Wiki page, on Windows and Mac?

    I tried searching in Help, but I haven't been able to find anything.  I'd like to get a list of the keyboard shortcuts that work while editing a wiki page in the Mac Server Wiki running on Lion. 
    When accessing Lion Server Wiki from a Mac, some of the usual suspects work: cmd+B for bold, cmd+} to indent, etc.  When accessing the Lion Server Wiki from Windows, though, I can't find an equivalent keyboard shortcut for the indent / unindent.  Where can I find a list of all of them?
    Thanks!
