Picas and Inches - How to change?

I have just downloaded InD and cannot find how to change picas into inches - previous posts say find 'Preferences' ex Edit, but there is no such thing in the drop down menu? Help!

You must be on a Mac, and the Preferences are where they are for *all* Mac software: under the "InDesign" menu.
Did any of these previous posts mention there is an online help as well? InDesign Help | Rulers and measurement units

  • HT1040 trying to make an ibook and have 800 photos, want format of 8 photos/page, but default is not that- "create" the initial book from iphoto "album" it loads less than 800 pics and then when i change layout i have blanks.

    trying to make an ibook and have 800 photos, want format of 8 photos/page, but default is not that- "create" the initial book from iphoto "album" it loads less than 800 pics and then when i change layout i have blanks.
    if i clear the book so that it is all blanks and then try to load in the pictures i have it loses the chronology of the pictures that i had established in the album.
    is there a way to import photos into an ibook template and keep the original order of the photos without having to do them one at a time?
    also, is there a way to insert a photo rather than just dragging it? i have tried the cut and paste funciton but it doesn't seem to work, the target site doesn't seem to register with iphoto.
    many thanks for your help.

    Photos are added to book in chronological order.  So if you want to add them to a book in the order you have placed them manually in an album do the following:
    1 - select all the photos in the album.
    2 - use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date menu option as shown here. Select any date and add 1 minute between photos.
    3 - select just one photo from the album and create a book from it.
    4 - in the book click on the Options button ➙ Book Settings button and make sure the checkbox for Auto-layout pages is unchecked.
    5 - drag the album with your book photos onto the book icon and they will be imported into the Photos tray of the book in your pre-determined order but not into the pages themselves.

  • I got a new Apple ID and idk how to change it on iCloud. It asks me to sign in but it uses my old email. What do I do? I have a iPhone 4. With the latest iOS

    I have a new Apple ID and I can't change it for my iCloud. It keeps asking me to sign into iCloud with my old email address an it doesn't work because I changed it. What do I do ?

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • IPhone3g fails to change orientation of, e.g., pics and video, when I change it from vertical to horizontal position.  I've done simple things like restarting and charging.

    This feature used to work all the time, now seldome does.  Phone had never been dropped, etc.  Phone is about 6 mos old (in use).

    Orientation lock is most likely on. Double tap the home button...swipe left to right...far left is the orientation lock button...tap on/off.

  • How to Change Security Settings on an Existing Wireless Network

    I'd like to change existing network security settings to WPA2, AES or at least to from TKIP to AES.
    I'm familiar with browser access to the router and with how to change the settings on the router.
    My question is how to do this as painlessly as possible for the network.  Step by step would be nice
    I guess first I have to change the router settings using the computer running Easy Link Advisor?
    Do I then have to disconnect/reconnect that computer?
    Do I have to disconnect every other computer and then connect each one again with the updated settings?
    Will the change in security settings affect my print server?  If so, do I have to set it up from scratch in ELA?
    For the record, I have a WRT-300N and the print server is a 54g.
    Anyone who reads this may also want to look into recent news.  May not be a big deal, but a vulnerability of WPA/TKIP has been identified.
    Thanks in advance to anyone who answers.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Do I really need to set security for my wireless connection. I searched for available WiFi in my area prior to installing my  network and none were available. Does that matter?
    The network never did function right from the start. My desktop is a Dell Inspiron 510n and is not wireless capable? So when I tried to add my HP mni 1000 it did not let me access the Internet.
    So now I have an unsecured network. Am I vulnerable to attack?
    Which leads me to my real question How do I change the security settings?
    Oh yeah, my home computer crashed due to a program I downloaded, so I do not have access to it. i'm a mess....
    Thanks,for any help

  • How to change spelling language in Pages 09?

    I have just downloaded Pages on my Mac but the spelling is American so everything that is spelt with an "S" in English and "Z" in American is showing up with that red underline because it thinks it should be spelt with a "Z" and not "S". This is very annoying because I do not live in America and use American spelling in my normal every day life.

    I am having the same problem.... I have found out how to change it to British English as it is called, but it will not save that way, I will try and explain how to change it, but really its only step one of the problem!
    1. click on the inspector button, its on the right on the top bar of pages and is blue with an I in the middle
    2. look for the capitol T along the top of the inspector box and click
    3. near the bottom you will see language settings and here you can choose British English.
    What I need to know is how to get this to stay so that when I re-open this it doesn't go back to US English!
    Please help!!! I was so excited to get rid of MS Office as it had annoying faults, I really hope I can resolve this because so far I have been so pleased with iworks!
