Previous & next page on same page trick doesn't seem to work in CS4
I am working on a book of around 500 pages and would like to have a previous and next page number on my right page.
So I did some research on this and found the threading text box trick which seems to work fine if I do it on a page in my document.
But if I try to do it on my masterpage it doesn't work properly.I am not really in the mood to do this manually.
I am working on CS4 and from what I understand this seems to be a CS4 specific problem or bug because it works fine in CS3.
The only solution I found is to put the threaded page number boxes into a seperate layer on your master page and when your doc is finished you can override all your master page items (while you keep other layers locked of course).
Things get a bit tricky when you start inserting new pages though and it's not the ideal solution imo. So I was wondering if there isn't a better trick to pull this off. You can do so much with Indesign, that a simple thing like this isn't as straightforward as I thought it would be, really surprises me.
This is, unfortunately, a bug. I reported it and got a response from an Adobe engineer who is investigating it. He was unable to reproduce the problem from my description, so I sent a sample file, and I presume at this point they are figuring out what to do to fix it, hopefully in the next dot release and not in CS5.
That doesn't help you now, unfortunately, and it sounds to me like the layer idea is a really good one, better in fact than anything else I've seen or come up with myself.
I'm curious why you want to do this. I've never personally had a reason to do it, but you are at least the third person here in the last couple of months, and that's a trend. What is the purpose for having a next/previous page on every spread, or even putting both page numbers on one page?

Pages 8 doesn't seem to work with 10.8
I am having trouble opening a file in Pages 8 using my Air with 10.8. All that will show in the window are the recent changes. I can't get it to open the existing file with all the data in it. This file was created on my desktop iMac using a earlier osX and the same Pages 8. Is this a Pages 8 and os 10.8 incompatability issue?
I don't know what "Pages 8" means.
The current version of Pages '09 is version 4.3. Pages '09 is the latest Pages and was part of iWork '09 back then. -
Hi I'm running Addressbook and cannot clear previous entry easily when searching my data base of around 5,000 contacts.
I prefer to view in All contacts on a double page spread with details on the right page. Searching doesn't seem to work correctly in this view.
It's always the second search that is problematic.
I've tried typing over and all it seems to do is confine the search to the the entries that have come up for the previous search.
I've tried to use the x to clear the previous entry and then type the next search, same problem. The only way seems to be to move from "All Contacts" to "Groups". Then the searched name appears and I can return to All Contacts to see full details.
Surely three key press' are not the way it's supposed to work?

Shortcuts for previous/next page on german keyboard are unreliable
Hi there!
I'm struggeling with the previous/next page shortcut on my german MacBook Pro. When I open the "History" menu it says the command for "next page" is ⌘ + ] and "previous page" is ⌘ + [
But there are no such bracket keys on the german keyboard. To get those brackets I have to press Alt + 5 or Alt + 6. So I tried ⌘ + Leftarrow and ⌘ + Rightarrow, but those are kind of unreliable... Sometimes the arrow shortcuts work, sometimes they don't...
Is there any way to manually change the shortcut or is there an alternative shortcut hidden somewhere?
CheersI don't believe there is.

Can negative B&W image be converted to positive, done this on elements previously by inverting but doesn't seem to work same way in lightroom ?
You should be able to invert in Lightroom. But choose the point curve rather than the region curve. If the negative is film you might get better results from scanning.

I can't access most internet pages because I don't have adobe flash player for my powerbook and the download doesn't seem to work?
The message requesting that you download Adobe Flash Player takes you to FP requireing an Intel processor. Doesn't work on a PowerPC processor. I fould a hack, installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari.
Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

I can't get my new Macbook to allow me to sync and still keep my phones existing iTunes library. Even though it is the same account it doesn't seem to recognise that my Apple ID is the same
If youre like me, I have so many Apple devices, I always move things over manually rather than remember what to sync and what not to sync........ There’s an option to UNCHECK sync on any device if that helps you in ITUNES.
On any device, like your phone, in ITUNES you can check the option for manual vs. automatically sync. -
Pdfmark code in MS Word 2008 doc doesn't seem to work properly to create Named Destination
Hi all,
I've been having trouble with creating Preview-compatible Named Destinations in Acrobat 9.x (see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/770470?tstart=0). Distiller, on the other hand, appears to create compatible Destinations, so as a last-ditch effort, I tried to go back to my original source file (Microsoft Word 2008 document) to use Distiller's pdfmark functionality, to see if maybe I could finally get a PDF with Preview-compatible Destinations.
Following instructions found elsewhere on this forum, I went into Word and inserted the following field into a test location in my document:
PRINT "[ /Dest /testdest /View [ /XYZ null null null ] /DEST pdfmark"
This field code is supposed to then cause a pdfmark to be inserted into the resulting PostScript and/or PDF files. Distiller is supposed to understand this and turn it into a Named Destination called "testdest." However, it doesn't seem to work - I don't see the pdfmark code in the PS file, and the PDF file doesn't have any Named Destinations in it.
I'm using Acrobat 9.x on Mac OS X 10.6.5, so I tried this two different ways:
1) Using the "Print to Adobe PDF" workflow (which replaced the "Adobe PDF Printer" from previous OS/Acrobat versions) - this automatically generates a PDF via (presumably) an API call to Distiller... and
2) Using the "Print to Postscript" workflow to generate a PS file, which I then ran through Adobe Distiller.
In neither case did I end up with a named destination in the PDF file, as I was supposed to. In case #2, even the Postscript file didn't have a pdfmark embedded in it. Thus, I'm assuming that perhaps this is particular issue may be a problem with MS Word 2008 rather than with Acrobat... but I'm hoping someone might have a clue as to how to fix it.
I welcome ideas on how to get Word 2008 to properly output pdfmark code, so that Distiller will pick it up and properly embed a Named Destination into the PDF...
Thanks in advance.
(If anyone has ideas about the Preview-compatible problem, linked above, that would also be great!)You're suggesting that it was never fixed from Word 2004 to 2008? Possibly. I wonder if it's fixed in Word 2011? Anyone know? But is it really a Word problem, rather than a Distiller issue?
I appreciate your offer, though I do have access to Word on Windows (2003, I think), so I could try Distilling there... I only worry about formatting, since there are minor differences (e.g. font kerning, etc.) between Mac and Windows that are subtle, but sufficient to create formatting issues for very long documents (e.g. pushing figures onto the wrong pages, etc.). That would be a rather big problem.
The question remains whether this is an issue with Word or Distiller, though... and whether it's fixed in Distiller X and/or Word 2011.
Adobe, care to comment?
I'd really love to find a proper Mac solution, if one exists... it would be rather a slap to Mac users if a solution doesn't exist. -
Data Detection in Calendar in Mavericks doesn't seem to work anymore.
Since the upgrade to Mavericks, data detection doesn't seem to work anymore.
Before i just typed in a new event:
"Meeting XY at 7pm in Berlin"
and ical would automatically change that to "Meeting XY" and insert the time in the appropriate field and the same for the location.
Now it doesn't work anymore and i have to insert it manually in the different fields.
Anyone with the same problem? and maybe a solution?After searching a bit longer, I found a solution that worked for me. A setting in the CUPS server needed correcting. See this page for instructions: http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/printing/topic2807.html#d21jul2008
After removing the Deny line indicated in the link above, I removed the printer from the remote computer and then added it back it. Two things happened, first when adding the printer back in, I no longer got the generic postscript printer driver as the default, but got the correct Officejet Driver. Second, It worked! Now to try it with my old 10.4.x powerbook to see if it's solved there too.
Hope that helps!

if in fact you did exactly as posted above, the su - oracle established a new process which knows nothing about the previous invocation of oraenv

Using a jQuery list box placed onto a tab control doesn't seem to work for posting?
Hello,
I developed a U.I. in Dreamweaver for a product and have several list boxes that use the onChange modifier to collect what the user selects from the list. I use the onChange=this.form.submit() function to grab the user's selection from the list box..
When this dropdown list box code is placed onto a form, it posts properly and I can retrieve the user's list selection. If however I place the list box code onto a Tab page from a jQuery Tab Control, developed in Dreamweaver, the posting doesn't seem to work.
I must be missing something because identical code is working fine when the list box code is placed on a form yet when the code is repeated from within a Tab, it isn't working.
The code is simple, and shown below). The list values are coming from a MySQL table.
$MyQuantity_query="SELECT * FROM Quantity_Table";
$MyQuantity_Result=mysqli_query($cxn,$MyQuantity_query) or Die ("Cannot connect");
echo"<select name='ThisQuantity[$RowCounter]' value='ThisQuantity[$Rowcounter]' onChange='this.form.submit()'><option value='-1' selected>Qty</option>";
While($MyQuantity_Row=mysqli_fetch_assoc($MyQuantity_Result))
extract($MyQuantity_Row);
echo"<option value='$Qty_Number'>$Qty_Number</option>";
echo"</select>";
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.
Joel

tags but posting still doesn’t seem to be working?
