Rack Cards with Pages?

Hey everyone, I downloaded the Pages app for my MacBook Pro in the hopes I could create our company's rack cards. I see brochure templates and flyers, but no set rack card template. I'm probably missing something obvious - or not - but I had heard you could this with Pages 09.
Does anyone know how to create a 2 sided rack card with Pages?
Thanks so much!

When you say "didn't work" it helps to say how it "didn't work" so we can suggest what to do.
Meanwhile:
Menu > Apple > System Preferences > Language & Text > Edit List… check Canadian English/Fançais canadien > OK > drag it to the top of the list > restart Pages
to clear off those pesky southern reactionary tendencies.

btw According to VistaPrint US rack cards are actually 4 x 9". So much easier and more efficent in ISO metric sizes, but unfortunately the USA takes its lead from Myanmar and Liberia.

Susan:
If you already have a hosting service you won't need a MobileMe account.
There are two ways you can upload your web site to your server: 1 - click on the site icon in iWeb and enter the ftp address path for your server and account in the window.
Click to view full size
2 - publish to a folder on the Desktop (set the path in the same window above) and use a 3rd party ftp client like the free CyberDuck (highly regarded in this forum) to upload to your server.
As far as the domain name, go to your domain name provider and setup domain name forwarding to the site on your host server. You'll need to know the URL to the index.html file that is created along with the site folder by iWeb.
Here is some information regarding the domain name forwarding and masking (most applies to both Mac and non-Mac servers):

How to create a business card with Pages?

I have created a card using the model, but i don't know how to fill in the page with ten cards. It,s impossible to copy and paste.
What to do to have the same model on ten cards on the same page?

Why do you find it impossible to Copy and Paste?
Copy and paste is the method but you can make it easier on you by first group all objects. Arrange > Group
There are several ways to copy and paste
1. the "normal" one
2. Cmd + D to duplicate
3. Alt/Opt + drag
When you have two card select both and do the copy and paste again and you have 4 cards. Repeat this and you have 8 cards. Add two more cards and you are done.

Can i use avery or hallmark blank greeting cards with pages?

I would like to make my own greeting cards using commercially available cards and templates, such as avery or hallmark's products, or plain cardstock. I'd appreciate any how-to advice on this subject, the simpler the better.

Stick the stock in the printer.
Download the Word templates from the company's websites and open them in Pages.

Can someone help me make my business cards with Pages?

I can't figure out how to duplicate my logo in Business cards without copying and pasting individually, and that makes a resize necessary. Appleworks was so much easier!

Layout- 3 up for rack card

I am new to pages and can't figure out how to do a 3 up layout in landscape view. Trying to make a simple rack card printed both sides with almost no margins.Help would be great!!!

Hi lisage
Welcome to the forum
Make one copy of the rack card select it all and +Menu > Arrange > Group+
Click on the group and drag it holding down the option key (to make a copy) and shift key (to keep it parallel). Do again to make your third copy.
Position it using +Inspector > Metrics+
or
+Menu > Arrange > Distribute/Align Objects+
Centre the rack cards on page 1 and make another set centred on page 2. Print page 1, turn it over and feed back into the printer and print page 2.
Personal printers are not very accurate so you may have to carefully position the paper as you feed it and adjust the sides if they are not properly centred.

i have an imac g4 purchased Dec 2003 runnung OS 10.5.8. It runs fine with airport off, but when I turn airport on it freezes with the black page, "restart by holding power key . . ." I swapped the airport extreme card with the one in my ibook G4 (purchased same date and running same OS). No change in operation.
I am running wifi from verizon. Recently changed from mifi2200 to jetpak 4620 in a 3G location. Ibook running fine, desktop freezes. If I can boot desktop in safe mode and get airport turned off in time. then I can reboot regularly and imac runs flawlessly with no wireless.Have run disk utilities and TechTool Pro rebuild etc, but nothing has worked. How do I fine the culprit?

the power logix thing was really sad. apple changed so much after 10.4.8 that there wasn't a viable way to patch the software.
That statement is precisely why I don't believe in blindly updating the OS, especially in a non-standard machine.
We can't expect third parties to support us forever, and it is shameful to break something that works fine, except that we updated the OS....
I think that any upgrade or modification to a machine or the OS greatly increases the risk of trouble or incompatibility with current configuration and "new" system files.
After all, the component or software could only be tested as far as the current OS version when the component or software was released.
Beyond that, we are all "beta testing".
Following a beta tester protocol, and applying updates to a cloned system drive first, is a prudent way to approach updates, and not only for older, heavily modified machines.
After 10.4.8 and moreso with Leopard, the focus is primarily on Intel architecture, not PPC architecture.
Like it or not, we are all updating to the abyss of the extinction of our machines, unless we can be satisfied with the last stable version of OS that works well with our hardware and software.
I wish they would include the latest pkgs at least with software update.
Yes, having individual packages, rather than lump "OS X 10.x.x" updates would be nice.
This way, one could update as one sees fit. That is to say, for example, fix the Quicktime, but leave my Network alone, etc., etc.
In all fairness, Apple does provide for some breakdown of updates, but I believe there is much room for improvement, especially, as you point out, with regard to the core services portion of the OS.
Until then, I'll leave Software Update disabled.......

How can i pay on the apple store online with two credit cards, with two different billing addresses

I will be greatful if you could answer me this question...
How can i pay on the apple store online with two credit cards, with two different billing addresses?
I know that you can use two credit cards to pay an item but the problem is that i can only put the billing address of just one of the credit cards, and since the two cards are from different people (my parents) i can't do it. They live in the same place so i don't know if i should just put one of the billing address.
Thank you.
PS. I don't know if this is the right community to ask this, sorry if i'm wrong.

On the Apple Store "Payment & Pricing" page it states:
Using more than one payment card
You can also combine payment methods to pay for your purchase. Choose from the following combinations of credit cards and Apple Gift Cards:
Credit card(s) - up to two
Apple Gift Card(s) - up to eight
Apple Gift Card(s) + one credit card
During checkout, if you are paying with a gift card issued by a credit card company, you can combine it with one credit card.

Can Anyone Tell Me How to Create Greeting Cards with Photoshop Elements 7 or 8?

I need a 7x10 page setup so that when the card is folded to a 5x7 my photo is landscape on the outside of the card. Currently I can only find a 8 1/2 x 11 paper size.
Thanks,

In Photoshop Elements 8 Editor, go to the Create tab, and you will see Greeting card, with 5x7 page size.

Trying to create index cards in pages

Hello,
I am trying to create a 3x5 flash card template to study, and can't find an easy way to set this up on Pages. I need to make about 150 double-sided cards with text on the front, and text wrapped around a small picture on the back. So I need to create an efficient system to plug in data as well as a picture for all of these items. I've tried several things so far:
1) Create a blank document 8.5x11 landscape orientation, then pull the guides down to fit 4 cards on a page. I would then ideally enter the info, print double-sided, then cut with a paper cutter. This formatting works fine for the first page, but I can't seem to replicate this page or the guides onto subsequent pages (guides can't be made to master objects I guess). If I try to select all 4 text boxes, copy, then paste them into the next page they for some strange reason scale down in size, so I lose the dimensions and placement of the boxes.
2) Create a brand new template with aforementioned guides and text boxes. And again, when I tried this I couldn't get the page and formatting to be replicated to subsequent pages. When I made the text boxes into master objects to try and achieve this, all text I enter into them gets replicated into every subsequent box, which is not what I need because I need unique text on each card.
3) Create a 3x5 page size document, which works ok but I cannot get a placeholder image to be replicated to subsequent pages. That means I need to drag the pictures on and format them one by one, which is again time-consuming. This is also tricky because I need to find a printer that handle printing directly onto index cards, which is a little specialized compared to printing on standard letter paper.
I've also searched the forums and google to try and find add-ons or shareware that can do this, but haven't come up with anything!
This is weird because surely I am not the only student who wants to create index cards on the computer rather than by hand! Please help..my final is next week..
Thank you.

Try to "capture" your first page thru the menu Format > Advanced > Capture Pages"
Then you will be able to insert a new page with the defined attributes from the menu entitled "Sections" in the toolbar.

ITUNES APP STORE WITHOUT A CREDIT CARD WITH EXISTING APPLE ID

Hey,
I've been trying to create a free itunes app store account. First I read the instructions in this link : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534, but the link shows how to create a new account, the problem is that I already have a Apple ID.
On the other hand when I try to sign in in the app store with my existing Apple ID, I get the message "This Apple ID has not yet been used with the iTunes Store please review your account information" with two options "cancel" and "review".
Clicking in review, I go to the page with the terms of service, continuing I go to a page where I have to type my email, my password, question and answer for the password and my birth date. The email field has the email that is being used with my current Apple ID, and the password field has the password of my existing Apple ID. The other fields are blank. Completing them, and clicking in next I go to the payment options page, but there's no "none" option, so I can't make a account withou using a credit card.
Is there a way to create a itunes app store without a credit card with my existing apple ID, or a I have to create a new one ?

few days already..
it seems like a bug..
actually i can use another email to log on..
but i want my all things to be consistent

Merge Address Book creates 4 of the same addresses on a Post Card in Pages

I'm a little miffed right now because I just spend 20 minutes on the phone with apple support who told what I needed to do but couldn't tell me 'how' to do it.
I'm trying to print multiple postcards (pages default if 4 postcards/page), all I want to do is merge my address book onto these postcards with EACH SEPARATE POSTCARD having different address...that means on a page with 4 postcards, I have 4 different addresses. What currently is happening is that I'm merging about 200 addresses from my address book, and it creates the same address 4 times(on one page, all four postcards), then creates another page for the next address (4 more postcards on that page). This leads to 4x's the amount of postcards I need to actually print.
Support told me that I need to change the setting from 4 post cards per page to 1 post card per page...but couldn't tell me how to do that. They suggested I look in 'help' for an answer....which I always do before calling support anyway. Any help would be nice here. I thought my apple protection service/support plan would help in instances like these...and YES, this answer came from an 'applications specialist'.

Cgip wrote:
Here's my question then, if the default in the postcard template is 4 post cards/page, how do I change it to one? This really seems like it'd be an easy fix, but I may be wrong.
I wrote:
The merge tool merges one record in one document. If the document is a "one_page" one, this means one record per page even if the document uses only 1/4 of the sheet.
We are writing upon a MERGE tool, not upon a LABELIZER one !
The only soluce would be to use a custom paper size whose height and width will be half the standard one.
Doing that you will be able to print one card on one small page.
If you try to put a single card on a page you will leave 3/4 of the sheet white.
You may also build four templates,
one with the card top-left
one with the card top-right
one with the card bottom-left
one with the card bottom-right
So you will be able to print
1/4 of cards with template 1
1/4 of cards with template 2
1/4 of cards with template 3
1/4 of cards with template 4
As I wrote, "doing (exactly) what you wish can't be done with Pages".
This is what was responded many times.
What you wish has nothing to do with MERGE. It's the job of a LABELIZER tool !

Info on creating business cards in pages

In creating business cards using pages, how do copy and paste? Doesn't seem to work as normal.

Fruhulda,
I was too impatient to wait for your solution and finally figured it out for myself. But I came up with a different method of dragging the one master card to the other blocks and that was by using the "option" key on the Apple key board. Apparently, it does the same as Cm + D. It's strange that we can't just copy and paste as normal.
It's a shame too that we don't have a "how to do things" directory for our keyboard.
But I want to say thanks for being a good Samaritan out there willing to help people like me and Samdelrussi.
Have a good Holiday Season.

Creating mailing labels using merge with Pages

Something I can do easily in Word seems impossible in Pages 09 (which I've begun using full time instead of Word and find it much more stable and easy to work with).
I have a postcard size document which fits on a third of an 81/2 X 11 page. So I have three repeats on the page. Follow so far?
I want to merge people's names into the postcard - three different names on a page. What I can't figure out is how to tell the merge to go to the next records for the second and third cards on each page! Easy to do in Word - I just drag and drop <Next Record> before the merge fields forpostcards 2 & 3.
There doesn't seem to be that possibility in Pages. I get three postcards the same on each page - the next three (the second record) all the same on the second page, and so on for each subsequent page. I don't want three identical postcards per page! I want cards with three different names on the same page.
Does anybody have an idea how this might be done or do I just do it in Word?

Peter
I was able to track down the script. Thanks.
Definitely a complicated way of doing something that's relatively straightforward in Word. Guess I'll have to stick to Word for creating these kinds of merge documents! Too bad, really.

When I want to create apple account for my new iphone5 with different apple id than this in billing and card details page I am stuck and get the message contact itune store support to complete this transaction. Need to know what to do as I can't creat apple id

The first step would probably be to contact iTunes support as you're being told to do.
