Printing database records with page numbers

Have an old database with name, address info and want to print an updated listing of all the records using AppleWorks 6.2.9 I inserted a footer in layout mode and then created a text field with page number in it. Went to browse mode and my 23 pages looked fine with page number at the bottom, as I wanted. But when printed, the page number appeared underneath every single record, as well as at the bottom of the page. Is this fixable?

Hi TN,
The printed version would suggest that the page number had been inserted into the Body part of the layout, whicle the screen version (assuming Page View has been checked in the Window menu) would suggest that the page number was correctly placed in the footer part.
I suspect that either the DB file or AppleWorks preferences files have become corrupted (possibly both).
I would start by rebuilding the Layout that is misbehaving, starting from a 'standard' layout.
If that doesn't solve the problem, Quit AppleWorks, trash the preferences (see THIS User Tips Library post by Peggy for details), relaunch AppleWorks and try again.
If the problem persists, try Saving a copy of the db as an AppleWorks 5 file, then close the original and open the AW 5 version into AppleWorks 6. (This conversion sometimes corrects internal problems with database files.)
Regards,
Barry

HP Color Laserjet 1600 cannot print in color with Pages 09

Hi, everybody!
I got a huge problem for me that the HP Color Laserjet 1600 cannot print in color with Pages 09 after I upgrade to 10.6.1. It worked very well in 10.5.8. Since there is no official driver from HP website for 1600, so I used foomatic/foo2hp as the driver.
It is very strange that I can print in color with Safari and Preview in 10.6.1, but cannot with Pages 09. When I print with Pages 09, it always shows that the print job was completed but my printer was nothing happened.
I just re-install the 10.6 OS "complete new", install the printer driver with the instructions on this forum.
It would be high appreciated if somebody can help me on it!

Why doesn't MAC just give us the driver for the HP Color Laserjet 1600? It's one of the most popular home based business laserjets. It's the one I use and a lot of other people in business use it so I'm at a loss as to why they don't.
I bought my MAC Pro tower for video editing and I can't print from it and have had to reinstall the OS on it once already because Safari wouldn't open a window. So much for the MAc advertising statement of "We're so much easier to use."
After spending close to $10,000 on MAC equipment, Tower, Laptop, Monitor, etc. if they think I'm going to spend more for a new printer just because I can't get a driver to print they're thinking wrong. I going to re-think my new cell phone purchase too. Has anyone had software issuses with their phones before I go out and buy one?

Business Partner records with large numbers of addresses -- Move-in issue

Friends,
Our recent CCS implementation (ECC6.0ehp3 & CRM2007) included the creation of some Business Partner records with large numbers of addresses. Most of these are associated with housing authorities, large developers and large apartment complex owners. Some of the Business Partners have over 1000 address records and one particular BP has over 6000 addresses that were migrated from our Legacy System. We are experiencing very long run times to try to execute move in's and move out's due to the system reading the volume of addresses attached to the Business Partner. In many cases, the system simply times out before it can execute the transaction. SAP's suggestion is that we run a BAPI to cleanse the addresses and also to implement a BADI to prevent the creation of excess addresses.
Two questions surrounding the implementation of this code. Will the BAPI to cleanse the addresses, wipe out all address records except for the standard address? That presents an issue to ensure that the standard address on the BP record is the correct address that we will have identified as the proper mailing address. Second question is around the BADI to prevent the creation of excess addresses. It looks like this BADI is going to prevent the move in address from updating the standard address on the BP record which in the vast majority of cases is exactly what we would want.
Does anyone have any experience with this situation of excess BP addresses and how did you handle the manipulation and cleansing of the data and how do you maintain it going forward?
Our solution is ECC6.0Ehp3 with CRM2007...latest patch level
Specifically, SAP suggested we apply/review these notes:
Note 1249787 - Performance problem during move-in with huge addresses
**applied this ....did not help
Note 861528 - Performance in move-in for partner w/ large no of addresses
**older ISU4.7 note
Directly from our SAP message:
use the function module
BAPI_BUPA_ADDRESS_REMOVE or run BAPI_ISUPARTNER_CHANGE to delete
unnecessary business partner addresses.
Use BAdI ISU_MOVEIN_CUSTOMIZE to avoid the creation of unnecessary
business partner addresses (cf. note 706686) in the future for that
business partner.
Note 706686 - Move-in: Avoid unnecessary business partner addresses
Does anyone have any suggestions and have you used above notes/FMs to resolve something like this?
Thanks,
Nick

Nick:
One thing to understand is that the badi and bapi are just the tools or mechanisms that will enable you to fix this situation. You or your development team will need to define the rules under which these tools are used. Lets take them one at a time.
BAPI - the bapi for business partner address maintenance. It would seem that you need to create a program which first read the partners and the addresses assigned to them and then compares these addresses to each other to find duplicate addresses. These duplicates then can be removed provided they are not used elsewhere in the system (i.e. contract account).
BADI - the badi for business partner address maintenance. Here you would need to identify the particular scenarios where addresses should not be copied. I would expect that most move-ins would meet the criteria of adding the address and changing the standard address. But for some, i.e. landlords or housing complexes, you might not add an address because it already exists for the business partner, and you might not change the standard address because those accounts do not fall under that scenario. This will take some thinking and design to ensure that the address add/change functions are executed under the right circumstances.
regards,
bill.

Problem with page numbering in Acrobat XI Pro

Hello community,
I got a problem with page numbering with certain documents in Acrobat XI Pro.
The next error comes up:
Translated in English:
There is an error occured when getting up of page-content.
This is occured with certain pdf-documents (i cannot uploading this file).
Is someone have similar problem, or has someone hev a sollution for this?
Greetings,
Bart

This usually means the file is corrupt, probably because it was not created
using a standard application like Adobe Acrobat.

Just installed 10.6. Unable to print word document with outline numbering

Just installed 10.6.8. Can't print Word document with outline numbering.

You mean USB HUBs, correct? Not routers.
Yes remove the HUBs and try the drives connected directly to the computer.

I just bought an iMac. It was to come with pages, numbers, and the presentation software (like power point). I can't find these programs.

Help please with Page Numbers & Facing Pages in Book Layout

I am having some dramas with my book project which is 168 pages including cover. I have created 22 different documents for the chapters and other pages. I had everything in a book and have been able to create a PDF, but then I needed to remove the cover so it can be printed separately and to change the page numbering to start at 1 after the contents page.
When I added numbers after the Contents page, it pushed all the pages out of order - ie what was previously sitting on the left was now sitting on the right etc.
Removing the cover also impacted on individual spreads.
Since then I have:
- Updated my program to resolve an issue where Indesign kept shutting down when I tried to change page numbers.
- Recreated the book twice, but find the spreads are all out of whack as I add them - doesn't appear to be auto paginating.
- Called Adobe and got given tutorials that have not helped me resolve the issue because I have followed the tutorials but it hasn't resolved the issues I am having.
Is there a way that you can stop autopagination and tell the pages which side they need to be on? I currently have one chapter finishing on an even number of pages and the next starting on an odd, even though there are an even number of pages in that chapter, which is bizarre? How do I fix this please?
I would sincerely appreciate anyone who can tell me how to fix this. I have read and watched so many tutorials showing how to set it up but there doesn't appear to be any that help with trouble shooting when you have followed the process but something bizarre happens.
Is there a way that you can dictate the sides that the pages should be on? Can you turn off the auto pagination anywhere? This is an urgent request.
Thanks,
Hayley
PS I started in CS6 and am now using CC.

A few things to consider:
Not all books are the same, but many begin on page one, which is a right page, and as it follows, all odd pages will be on the right with even pages on the left. If your book had the cover as part of the book, I wonder if that meant that your first page was on the left?
Books leaves hold two pages (front and back), and therefore book page counts need to be divisible by two. You say your book is 168 pages including the cover, which you moved to another document, leaving 167 book pages. If you were counting the back page, that might make for a 166 page book, which would be OK, but depending on how it will be printed, the page count may need to be divisible by 4, 8, 16, or higher, and the printer may need to add blank pages to get to the correct page count. Can you tell us how your book will be produced?
Many people like to keep their chapters in even-numbered page count, so that new chapters may start on the right. This sometimes requires you to have a blank left-sided page at the end of some chapters. This blank page is sometimes labeled "This page intentionally left blank" or some such wording (so as to let the reader know there wasn't a misprint), but isn't strictly necessary. Sometimes an ornament in the center of the page will do the same job.
Do you think these are things you would like to have in your book, or are you opposed to them for any reason? The answers may narrow the advise you get from the forum users.

Having trouble with page numbering in Pages

I moved a document from Word to Pages. Now the page numbering is outside any text box, footer, table, etc., and cannot be accessed for editing. I cannot click on it. I tried fooling around with page number functions in Pages, and it merely adds a second set of page numbers. I revealed the formatting and background information to no avail. It is as if the page numbers do not exist, except that they are showing up on screen. Has anyone ever had this problem? How did you resolve it?

JT,
This is a long-standing conversion issue, where Word page numbers sometimes turn into un-editable graphic objects in Pages. To get rid of them, do the following:
Arrange > Make Background Objects Selectable
Format > Advanced > Make Background Objects Selectable
Command-Drag a selection box from the margin diagonally across the page number object to select it
Press Delete
That usually does it. If you have a multi-section document, you may have to do it more than once.

Table of Contents with Page Numbering in bi-fold brochure?

I am creating a bi-fold brochure that is a total of 10 printed pages front to back.
Is it possible to create a table of contents on the inside cover of the brochure, and have it automatically page number the other pages of the brochure, or is this only possible in the more high-end desktop publishing programs?
Thanks very much in advance for your help,
Phil

Pages does page numbering as does most word processing software.

'Automator' use with Pages, Numbers & Keynote!

I am trying to create a workflow that auto inputs data from an Excel spreadsheet to a Pages document, only to discover that there appears to be no ability to integrate with Pages and other iWork's applications within the Automator application.
Am I correct in this assumption?
Why is this?
Will we see this capability in the future?
It's seems totally insane to create such a powerful tool, that cannot be used with Apple's own software packages, but that can integrate with Microsoft packages! Missing a trick here Apple??
Any help would be much appreciated.
James

The AppleScript scripting definitions, and Automator actions associated with Office for Mac 2011 applications were created by Microsoft. The same entities for Pages, Numbers, and Keynote were created by Apple. Not having Office for Mac 2011 installed will deprive you related Automator/AppleScript functionality.
Apple's commitment to document integration is the ability to import Microsoft documents into the respective Pages, Numbers, and Keynote applications. In your case, getting Excel into Numbers, and then base your workflow around Numbers and Pages.
Assuming that one has Office for Mac 2011 installed, those that are patiently nimble with AppleScript, can open an Excel document, and a Pages document in the same AppleScript code, and to the extent that the respective scripting definitions interplay without data type collisions, you may be able to create something unique. Mary Shelley, the English author published a novel about that calamity in 1818.

Can mailing barcodes be printed on envelopes with Pages?

Can mailing barcodes be printed on envelopes made in Pages as in Microsoft Office?

No, not with Pages, although I guess you could with a barcode font. I find it much easier to print envelopes using the free EasyEnvelopes widget.

Please help with page numbering!

Right, so I'm writing my thesis and need to insert different types of page numbering (note: I'm using Pages '09 4.3)
I've split the document up by inserting sections:
Section 1: Glossary of Abbreviations, List of Figures. These must be numbered, but on a Roman numeral system. This section begins on page 4, but page 4 should actually read page 'i', page 5 'ii', page 6 'iii', and so on.
Section 2: Main body of text. This must also be numbered, but using Arabic numbers. This section begins on Page 8, but I want page 8 to read page '1', if you see what I mean.
My problem: while I've succeeded in inserting Arabic numbering at Section 2, I cannot do the same for Section 1. Each time I try to insert the Roman numerals using 'Insert > Auto Page Numbers...' it just numbers the WHOLE document that way! I can't manually type in the numeral at the footer of each page either, because when you change one footer it changes all the footers within a section!
I've gone on every forum, tried everything I've read, but it STILL WON'T cooperate. This should be the easiest thing in the world but I can't seem to do it! I'm going insane. I beg you, if I can't solve this soon I'll overheat and throw this stupid computer out of the window. Please, PLEASE help!

I tidied all that up and added it to the iWorkTipsnTricks forum.

ID CC 2014 problem with page numbering book

I have 9 documents in this book, introduction, chapters 1 through 7, and endnotes. I have section numbering selected in all documents. I have the Book Page Numbering Options set to continue from previous document. Also in the Book Page Numbering Options I have "Automatically Update Page & Section Numbers" selected. Each document is based on the same template. The book starts renumbering pages at chapter 2. I can't figure out what is wrong or how to fix it. Could this be a bug in 2014?

I figured it out. Duh. I didn't have Automatic Page Numbering selected in the Numbering and Section Options of that particular file. That's what I like about ID. There's always a reason when things go wrong.

Unable to print book - error with page info

I'm trying to print a 50 page book. No problem assembling, uploading or purchasing but after a day or two I always get the following message from the Apple store.
Due to an error when your order was submitted, the file we received contains incorrect page information. As a result, Apple is unable to process your order and you will not be charged. Before submitting a new order, we have some suggestions for correcting the issue:
Update your software.
Preview your product in iPhoto or Aperture.
Place your order again.
If you are unable to update iPhoto, or are prompted to purchase updated software, you may consider the troubleshooting steps below:
Open iPhoto and go into your book project.
Choose to view "All Pages".
Once you are on the "All Pages" screen, click on the last page that appears.
Choose "Layout" and then select "Spread" from the "Layout" drop down menu.
You should then see that the rear flap page appears. Subsequently, you can make the desired customizations before resubmitting your file.
Preview your product in iPhoto or Aperture.
Place your order again.
We appreciate your business and apologize for any inconvenience.
This is the third time this has happened. I've tried both sets of instructions. The final time, the .pdf preview displayed but the formatting of the page was all out of whack - photo sizes incorrect, wrong font, wrong font sizes - The software is updated, I'm running OS Mavericks and iPhoto 9.5.1.
I'm all out of ideas, here. Any input greatly appreciated.

Paul:
As Terence pointed out it's a damaged library, most likely the database file, Library6.iPhoto. To protect from future occurrences of such a damaged library you can keep a current backup copy of the database file on hand and ready to replace in the library package if you ever get the blank or "!" indication again for the full sized file. See the tip at the end of my signature for an easy way to make those backups.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.
