Pages has extremely delayed typing, how do I fix this?

Lately when I use Pages, I have to sit and wait on the text to catch up with my cursor.  All other computer programs I have on my Mac do not have this problem and run just fine when I am typing.  My Pages program is up to date and has been fine in the past, it is just now that I am having some major lag time issues.  I have closed and reopened the program, restarted my computer, and done pretty much everything I can think of to troubleshoot the problem.  Any advice/help on correcting this is appreciated.  Thank you in advance!  K.

Guess you are using Pages 5.2.2? You didn't say.
Lots of things cause it to run slow.
Lots of images, lots of objects, lots of text, lots of pages, lots of citations…
It uses a very obscure and bloated file format, which doesn't help.
Sounds like you may have used Pages '09 in the past, keep using it.

    some times my internet connection will say it has timed out and I can not connect. but my friends mac never has a problem. How can I fix this?

    Just confirming, when you have the trouble, the wifi icon is grayed-out or has all bars showing? I believe you are saying that is is grayed-out - not connected to your wireless router.
    I have a Mini that started to lose connection to the Internet after the 10.7.3 update but still showed the wireless as connected. If I pinged the wireless router, I would get a quarter of the packets failing to return. The router was a Netgear that supported 802.11N connections. As a test, I set it to 802.11G (54MBps) maximum and the Mini worked fine for a week - no dropouts. And for the other devices that did support 802.11N, while there was a noticeable delay with downloads and pages loading, they still worked.
    As another test, I changed the Netgear router to a Billion 802.11N model and the Mini has not had a problems since. (It is still using 802.11g). So it could be your router that is causing trouble for your Mac.
    Have a look at some of the More Like This postings in the right column. There has been a number of Mac owners experiencing wifi connection issues and some very good suggestions as to how to resolve their issue.

  • After exporting a video from imovie, to quicktime, the audio has been duplicated. How can I fix this?

    after exporting a video from imovie, to quicktime, the audio has been duplicated. How can I fix this?

    iMovie works best with uncompressed audio. If your track is MP3 or AAC, you may get better results by converting your track to the AIFF format and then using that in iMovie.
    You can do this in iTunes. Go to iTunes/Preferences and click the General button. On the General page, click the Import Settings button. Choose IMPORT USING: AIFF ENCODER.
    (note: remember what you changed it from so you can change it back later, before you import another CD)
    Now, in iTunes, select your track. Then click FILE/CREATE NEW VERSION/AIFF VERSION.

  • I'm trying to setup my new iphone and the Apple ID it asks for is my friends old Apple ID that she no longer has access to. How can I fix this?

    I'm trying to setup my new iphone and the Apple ID it asks for is my friends old Apple ID that she no longer has access to. How can I fix this so I can use my new phone? The first step asks for my iCloud info but then asks for my friends after I agree to the terms.

    The iPhone is new, has never been used. When asked if I want to set it up as a new phone, restore from an iTunes backup, or my iCloud backup I selected iCloud. It then askes for me to sign in with my Apple ID, I then agree to the terms, then it asks for me to sign into my friends Apple ID. She and I have used each other's computers in the past so I assume this is where her information is coming from. The problem is she no longer had that email or Apple ID and has no way of gaining access to it and therefor I am unable to proceed.
    I suppose my question is, how can I remove her information from mine so I can setup my new phone using iCloud. Also, I have already checked my Apple ID online and nowhere on my account is her information listed.

    For some reason this worked for me. I went into my account and changed my first name, maybe it causes itunes to reset. What ever it does my itunes works now.

    Hi Hamish1P,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like an app you installed is not working. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    If an app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open - Apple Support

    Hi The Lad,
    If you have "INSUFFICIENT" disk space, then you can try and change the install location while performing the installation of the desired product. I am not sure when the error message would pop up saying that the disk space is "INEFFICIENT". Could you please share a screen shot of the error message along with the system information.
    Cheers,

  • Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable. How do I fix this?

    Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable. How do I fix this?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.  
    Regards

  • When I try to open CS5, I get an error message that it cannot initialize the preferences file because it has been deleted. How do I fix this?

    The last time I used CS5, I changed the scratch disc in the preferences file; now Photoshop will not open saying that the preferences file has been deleted. I didn't delete the file. How do I fix this?

    As you open Photoshop, hold Control + Alt + Shift (or Command + Option + Shift on a Mac). That will trigger a preferences reset dialog, Photoshop will go back to default state when you do that.

  • Playback of .mov files has dropped frames.  How can I fix this problem?

    Playback of .mov files has dropped frames.  I've exausted changes in settings without result.  The files play back from my Canon camera into an HD TV but not on my desktop using Windows XP or my notebook using Vista.  How can I fix this problem?

    Playback of .mov files has dropped frames.  I've exausted changes in settings without result.  The files play back from my Canon camera into an HD TV but not on my desktop using Windows XP or my notebook using Vista.  How can I fix this problem?
    The QT player is programmed to drop frames during playback if needed in an effort to maintain the target frame rate. If you want all frames to be played, the turn on the "Play all frames" viewing option but be advised that the playback frame rate may then vary drastically.
