Problem inserting a section

I want to insert a new blank page section. I position the insertion point where I want the new section to go, click the Insert menu, select Section and blank page. The section gets inserted at a totally different place in the document than where the insertion point is placed.
What am I doing wrong?
Pete

Hey Pete,
Move the cursor to where you want the page break > insert > page break.
Hope This helps

Really having problems with organising documents in pages. For example, deleting pages deletes the whole section and I cannot insert a section break as its greyed out & sending an object to background deletes several pages - what the **** is going on???

Really having problems with organising documents in pages. For example, deleting pages deletes the whole section and I cannot insert a section break as its greyed out & sending an object to background deletes several pages and trying to insert a text box autmatically creates new pages- what the **** is going on??? Is this programme really this badly thought out? I thought everything apple was supposed to be intuitive!?!?!? Help.

You can not insert a section break into a textbox.
You appear to have a lot of objects with wrap set, that once you take them out of the flow of text (by sending them to the background) causes the text to reflow and contract into fewer pages. Pages is almost unique in the way it forms up pages in Word Processing mode only so long as there is text on them.
I suspect you probably have hammered away at returns, spaces and tabs as well to position things, which only works to add to the mess.
Download the Pages09_UserGuide.pdf available under the Help menu and swot up a bit on how it works.
You may find this a usueful resource as well:

PS There is quite a lot of programming in OSX that is far from "intuitive". Pages is easy at one level, when using the templates, otherwise it can be quite frustrating.

How to insert a section break without a page break on Pages 5? Is it possible?

I would like to begin a page with a page-wide paragraph, then continue with multiple columns. Can I insert a section break and stay on the same page, making the second section three columns? I haven't found a way to do that, and it seems it's not that unusual a format? It was easy with Pages 4.

You mean a Layout Break.
This is one simplification in Pages 5.
Just select the paragraphs and change the number of columns in the Format sidebar.
The only problem is vertical and horizontal indents, there are none.

How do I insert a section with another time signature than the one im inser

How do I insert a section with another time signature than the one im inser

Yeah I've been trying to figure this out as well, for example... my song might be 90 bpm and I want to program another track using midi but have it play at 180 bpm. The only way I've found to work around this is to write my 180 bpm part make a sample of this and then loop this into the 90 bpm song.

Problem inserting flash from flash 8

I am using flash 8 and dreamweaver 8. When I place a flash
header into my web page there is a space created between the header
and the lower content on the page. My publish setting in flash are
set at default. Thanks for any help.

This could be a problem w/ the Screen Mimic file because I have no problem inserting other flv files supplied to me by others.
That would my guess too. Here are few other things to consider:
1) Does your FLV filename contain any spaces or special characters? If so, rename it without spaces as these can cause problems.
2) Output Screen Mimic project to a QuickTime MOV file. Then use Adobe Flash Encoder to convert the MOV to FLV.
3) When you tested your page, was it a live page on remote server? Did you upload the page and all supporting files to server (Scripts folder, SWF, FLV...)?

Problem Inserting Flash Video (flv) File into Site

Hi -
I'm having problems inserting a Flash Video (.flv) into my webpage. I'm using Dreamweaver 8.
I'm going to: Insert - Media - Flash Video, browsing to the .flv file that's in my local site folder, entering the settings.
In Dreamweaver, there's a big gray box w/ flv icon in the middle. But when I go to preview, the screen is empty, no video.
I'm creating the .flv file w/ Screen Mimic (a screen capture recording software). This could be a problem w/ the Screen Mimic file because I have no problem inserting other flv files supplied to me by others. This is the first video that I've made that I'm trying to insert.
If anyone has any suggestions, I would be most appreciative.
thanks!
Stacey Stanley

RegisterOutParameter - setBinaryStream - Problems inserting Blob - setRAW

As posted in metalink (was: "Problems inserting BLOB/InputStream with ojdbc14.jar for 10g - Data size bigger than max size for this type"):
Using setBinaryStream for large Blobs works as long as I don't register outParameters.
Query that works: "INSERT INTO blobtest (attachment_id,name,data) VALUES(blobtest_SEQ.nextval,?,?)";
Query that fails = "BEGIN INSERT INTO blobtest (attachment_id,name,data) VALUES( blobtest_SEQ.nextval,?,?) RETURN attachment_id INTO ? ; END;"
The necessary tables were created by hand:
CREATE TABLE blobtest ( NAME CHAR(255), data BLOB, attachment_id NUMBER(38))
And
CREATE SEQUENCE TBL_ATTACHMENT_SEQ
The output was: <<user: SEE
pw: QD

Apparently, this is partially known - with a different stacktrace though:
<<From: Oracle, Anupama Srinivasan 25-Apr-05 07:15
Can you please check on Bug:4083226?
Using the RETURNING Clause is not supported with JDBC. You could embed the statement in PL/SQL Block as in Metalink Note 124268.1 - JDBC Support for DML Returning Clause.
The Enhancement Request filed on this issue is being considered for Release 10.2
>>
And my answer to it.
Using the RETURNING Clause is not supported with JDBC.This is strange, with just "emptyblob()", it DOES work.
I guess, our work-around that hopefully is more portable than embedding a "PL/SQL Block" will be to
1) create the record with an empty blob,
2) update the blob in a second statement (now, a RETURNING statement is no longer needed)

Problem inserting photos in Imovie project

i have what seems an unusual problem inserting photos into one of my projects. some photos insert fine however others that are dragged into the project dont appear when the video is played. the bar does however appear above the video clip showing that the photo has been inserted and the duration can be toggled.
i then tried inserting the same photo into another short project and it worked fine?!
has anyone come across this? would really appreciate your help as trying to put together a video clip for a wedding which is taking place in a few days!!
many thanks

Any ideas why Premiere does this? What can i do?
Thanks!

Any one having problems inserting Pages files into iBook author"

Ever since I updated the Pages a week ago, iBook Author is unable to read Pages files while attempting to insert. Never had a problem in previous versions of Pages or files created a few months ago. The only work around is to copy text and past into new sections in iBook Author. Tedious. Any solution appreciated.

Very useful info!
I ran some tests with a new Pages 5 doc saved in both Pages 5 format and exported to Pages 09 format, and iBA had no problem importing them. So perhaps the problem is confined to older docs.
