Stopping automatic numbering

When using WORD, I know that you can stop the automatic numbering by just clicking ENTER twice. I can't seem to get my numbered list to having spacing between each number.
For example,
1. blahblahblah
2. blahblahblah
I tried the Preferences, and turn the Automatic thing off. Didn't work...
Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks it would really help me for an assignment for school.

Dennis,
Here's my example. Before I began typing on the line that became list line 1, I selected Inspector > Text Inspector > List > Numbers. After the Double-Return, the format automatically switched back to normal.
Always works this way for me.

  • How to stop automatic numbering of paragraphs?

    I have an existing Pages document with numbered paragraphs.  When I try to modify the document by adding or deleting numbered (or unnumbered) paragraphs, Pages automatically inserts new sequential paragraph numbers that I cannot undo, delete, or change.   I have NOT selected "auto detect lists" under Preferences, and I can find no tool to disable this nasty feature.  How can I simply make my own numbered or unnumbered paragraphs?

    Here is the answer available in Pages User Guide.
    On my machine, pressing Return twice doesn't do the trick.
    I use shift + return.

  • In Pages 5.5.3, How to stop automatic numbering of Lines & Paragraphs?

    How can I stop the A. B. on the extreme left of the page?
    Anything I try screws up the rest of the formatting.
    I see nothing in Prefernces to stop this.

    It doesn't change existing lists.
    Are you saying it still forms a list from text marked as Bullets & List > None, as you type?
    Click in the A./B. text.
    What does it say in Bullets & Lists?

  • Stop the Numbers and Letter Lists!

    My wife is going crazy - please help me. She has to copy and paste questions into a blank pages doc, answer the questions then submit the completed document. The problem is that Question 1 is numbered as such and when she goes to type the answer, her answer is then number 2. It happens with part a, b , c as well always wanting to continue the list. I thought I read that you simply double return and it stops, but this is not working, nor is turning off "automatically detect lists" in preferences. How do you stop the numbering and lettering lists please?

    Thanks Peter - unfortunately that's what I found in the help menu's and it doesn't work. The more I press return the more the list keeps going, c,d,e,f,g etc. I also selected none in the lists menu, but it seemed to have no effect. Is this because the document was pasted from a word to a pages? I wonder.

    What is the problem? From media server console I can see 2

    I have tested it with medium and low bandwith.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • In Pages 5, Maverick, How do I stop automatic conversation of URLs to hyperlinks and seeing them underlined

    There used to be a preference setting in Pages.  Now it seems gone in Pages 5.   So how do I stop automatic conversation of URLs to hyperlinks and seeing them underlined in text.  Sometimes I want it, but not always.

    The preference setting to turn off links is gone. When you enter content that triggers link detection, a link character style gets applied. Right-click on the link, choose Edit Link from the menu, and then Remove.
    To prevent Pages from automatically detecting links, visit Edit > Substitutions > and deselect Smart Links.

  • How can I get my iPad to play just one song from my playlist and then stop automatically?

    I am a music teacher and I use the iPod on my iPad to play songs in class.  I have a long playlist of songs to choose from in each class, and I want to play just one song at a time.  I want to be able to start one song from my playlist and then walk away from my iPad and have it stop automatically when that song is over.  (I know how to make it repeat the same song over and over, but tha'ts not what I need.  I also know how to push "pause," but I don't want to have to walk away from the children to do it.) How can I make it play one song from a playlist at a time?

    I don't believe that there is a way to do that except, perhaps, creating a separate Playlist for each song.

  • Issue with automatic numbering of figures in a Technical Document

    Hi everyone, thanks for taking the time to examine my issue. Basically I've inherited a Technical Document which was imported from Quark some years ago and badly cobbled together in IDesign by a novice and I'm bringing it up to standard to make it a bit more usable but do need to retain the conventions within it. It was written as a chaptered document so I've set up the 'chapters' as Sections in InDesign so as to allow for page number variables and a decent ToC etc. I'd like to have the diagram numbers (and associated x-references) automated too, but am floundering a bit with this.
    At the moment all the image captions are set in one paragraph style throughout the document, and I've been playing with the Bullets and Numbering Dialogue within this paragraph style. All the captions are part of the body text or in their own text frames (As opposed to being linked with image metadata or anything like that).
    The  manually written image number format in the document reads like 'Figure Chapter number, colon, Image number,  and then some have (a), (b), or (c). followed by the name)'  eg (worst case) Figure 8:5(c) Sealing the Blahblah Adaptor
    I realise I might have to set up a named list for each 'chapter' because I can't find a way to define the numbered list to show me;
    'Section number, dot, Image number (starting at one then continuing until the next section starts) dot and then if I need it an a, b, c. etc too'
    Not forgetting I have set up the written 'chapters' as Sections in Indesign.
    If I try adding the 'section symbol' to the number field in the bullets and numbering dialogue (inside my paragraph style)  I just get a weird little blue shape that presumably starts a new section rather than identifies the section I've put it in (so that isn't it) and if i try 'Chapter Number' from the number placeholder menu it only ever says '1' because InDesign only allows one 'chapter' per document (and my chapters are actually sections!).
    I do find the coding system for the 'insert special characters or numbered placeholder' really confusing - I'm not familiar with all of them, (and throwing circumflex's and hashtags in doesn't brighten my day) and since I don't know the codes trial and error seemed to be the way forward.  How are we supposed to know the codes - is there a list online somewhere?
    I could manually type the section number in the 'Number' text box in the dialogue (if I make a named list for each chapter) and lift a layer of confusion but surely there's a way to identify a section in a numbered/named list?
    I think I'm really close but it's driving me a bit crazy - I'm sure identifying levels within named lists might be something to do with it, but I can't see how to alter that. Do I need to set up a new paragraph style AND a new named list for each 'chapter' (section)? The alternative could be to split the document up and make a book file so the 'chapters' become real chapters? (I don't want to do this!)
    There's also something in RealWorld InDesign that worries me a bit - it says (even if I had it working the way I want) that it might number unthreaded text frames in the order they were created rather than the order they appear on the page? Um...
    The other thing is I do have a mixture of inline and anchored objects throughout this document so that might mess things up too?! *Sigh!*
    I'm using InDesign 5.5. for Windows. Many thanks for any tips! Hope somone out there is less confused than me!
    kind regards
    Phil

    You're so right!!!
    I really liked the idea of writing a book in pages. Have to write a second edition of something and did not want to use Word2008 on the Mac, because after one year it is still an unstable beast (crashes, crashes).
    So I checked ot Pages 09 - and alas
    * no xreferences
    * no automatic numbering of captions, figures, ...
    Then I asked my publisher for FrameMaker: The answer was: NO longer on the Mac since 2005. I can't believe this. Not a single decent program to write a book on a Mac.
    I don't want to go back to LaTex after 20 years - HELP me somebody
    and show me a few (automatic) workarounds how to play the automatic numbering and Xref tricks in pages.
    Otherwise it's really neat - BUT - nut for writing documents longer than 20 - 30 pages that need off that book like stuff.

  • While video taping, the camera says videoing stopped automatically.

    I purchased my canon rebel t2i at Staples, along with a 16GB card with a 10 in the top rt corner.  When recording with my camera, it will often say videoing has stopped automatically. I also cleared everything off the card .  I had it checked today by an employee, but was not sure why that message displays.    He suggested to shut it off and start it up again as it maybe a glitch.   I love this camera, but I need to know why the camera is doing this.  Very frustrating when i am trying to get those special moments with our grandaughter, as they are only here for a short time.  I am very new to this higher classed camera.
      Thankyou.  I hope you can steer me in the right direction!!

    One more thing - sometimes with Canons simply deleting everything doesn't actually clear the space on the card.  You might want to try formatting it as well.

  • Is there any way to get rid of this stupid feature in iTunes for Windows? You've subscribed to a podcast but have more than five unplayed episodes. iTunes will stop automatically downloading newer episodes.

    s there any way to get rid of this stupid feature in iTunes for Windows?
    You've subscribed to a podcast but have more than five unplayed episodes. iTunes will stop automatically downloading newer episodes. You may get the following message: 
    iTunes has stopped updating this podcast because you have not listened to any episodes recently. Would you like to resume updating this podcast?
    You can click Yes to continue downloading additional episodes. Or you can just listen to any part of any episode and a new episode will download at the next update.

    I believe that feature was added in order to reduce wasted costs to the Podcaster.
    Podcasts incur costs - that have to be paid for, by someone. That cost will be the cost of hosting the Podcast on a server somewhere and more crucially (with regard to your point), the cost of the Podcast being downloaded to your computer. Every download costs the Podcaster money (typically, charged by bytes downloaded).
    If that Podcaster pays for the whole thing personally, obviously they want to keep down any unnecessary cost to themselves. If the Podcaster is earning money for his or her Podcast (typically from advertising within the programme) then obviously, the advertiser only wants to pay for advertisements heard by listeners. So a download, not heard by the downloader, is waste of the Podcaster's money or no payment from the advertiser.
    My own experience is that I only have to resume downloading once per programme. I'm usually several episodes behind on two different Podcasts that I follow, but I do not recall having to repeat the resume Podcast after that first time.
