Tabs not moving from Pages to ePub

My Pages doc moved to ePub, and then my iPad great... except there's no tabs. Every new paragraph starts flush left.
What went wrong?

Ahhh that's what you are after.
Yes you will need tabs, or have you tried en or em spaces? I think Pages' ePub "solution" is going to kill either as they really need hand encoding.
I can only suggest you search for explicitly ePub software:

This is starting to look much like Apple's previous html feature in Pages. Basically useless until users cottoned on, then it was removed.

Export from Pages to ePub??

Help! I need to export from Pages to epub. I've read the tutorial a hundred times and it says that when you click on "export" one of the options should be epub. However, my only options are pdf, word, or rtf. What am I doing wrong?

If your admin bought the iWork package as a DVD, Pages '09 version 4.0.3 is really the late version available on this media.
As fruhulda wrote, you must get and apply an updater (maybe you must ask the admin to do that, I know that some of them are a bit picky).
PS, since last wednesday, the best Apple tool to create ePub is the free iBooks Author.

Why can I not print from pages but can if I copy to text edit, I get "printer off line message " from pages ?

Why can I not print from pages but can if I copy to text edit, I get "printer off line message " from pages ? I use HP wireless printer .

Are you sure you have the right printer?
In UNIX/OSX printers are virtual links to devices and even with the same name can be trying to reach a printer via another network address, so it thinks it is another printer.

Image export from Pages to epub

Hope this is the right forum.
Question about exporting images from Pages to ePub: What does the following comment mean?
Images beyond the 11MB of un-encoded image data allocation per chapter.
1. Does "images" mean total number in chapter? Or is the 11MB per image?
2. What is "un-encoded image data" please?
Thanks.

I asked the above question because I am writing a book with many pictures, and the exported ePub files for one particular chapter stop including pictures after a certain point.
However, that point is much beyond 11MB. The pics average 600KB, and it includes 45 of them (about 27MB) before stopping.
Thanks for the help.

From Pages to epub format

On June 2, in a post entitled Pages to ePub, I evoked the challenge of transforming a novel, written in Pages, into epub format for the iPad device. Over the last week, I've succeeded in carrying out this task completely, in an essentially manual way.
Harrison Ainsworth's excellent tutorial on building epubs, which is perfectly sufficient for the basic stuff, can be found at
http://www.hxa.name/articles/content/epub-guidehxa72412007.html
The first operation consisted of exporting all my Pages files as pure text. Then I used BBEdit (on my iMac) to insert countless pairs of XHTML tags: basically "p" tags. The steepest learning curve for me (as an enthusiastic Flash developer who hasn't touched HTML for years) was getting the knack of how to write a perfect XHTML-oriented Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) file.
Curiously, I was hung up by a trivial obstacle for several days: the necessity of zipping together all my files, to create the final .epub document. Here again, Harrison Ainsworth kindly solved this problem by pointing me to a magic tool (in fact a tiny AppleScript device) that can be found on a MobileRead forum at
http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=55681
While waiting to buy an iPad, I'm using the Adobe Digital Editions tool on my iMac to display my novel. Finally, the most convenient way of validating the end result consists of using the website at
http://www.threepress.org/document/epub-validate
So, my 318-page novel is now ready (well, almost ready) to be published. I'm awaiting an ISBN number from the French authorities. And maybe I should get a professional graphics artist to produce a first-class cover illustration. For the moment, I haven't looked into the question of whether Apple will be prepared to accept my novel for their iBooks distribution (since I live in France).
I'm now faced by the following tough question: Should I carry on using Pages as a creative-writing tool, or would I be better off using an ebook-oriented environment right from the start? For the moment, there are two or three significant advantages in using Pages for creative writing: (1) There's no technical barrier between the author and his/her output. (2) I can distribute my stuff conveniently to friends and colleagues in the form of PDF files. (3) I can print out pages on A4 paper, for checking.
As much as I'm really fond of Pages, I'm not sure that these advantages justify the messy operations involved in moving to epub format. Consequently, I fear that I might soon be putting Pages in mothballs… alongside Textures, PageMaker and InDesign.

Honestly, at the moment if you are writing fiction, the easiest answer is to use Word or one of the Open Office variants and then use an aggregator and let them hassle with the coding parts (although I must point out that there are some difficulties for the future in terms of the publisher code and the ISBN ownership). Or else get really good at writing CSS/XHTML for yourself, or hire someone to do it for you. There are places where you can get a manuscript formatted for all the major outlets.
For any kind of heavily formatted book, I think the solution is to hunker down and wait a bit. People in the industry are still figuring out how to enforce a lot of formatting (there are some magnificent cookbooks in ibooks right now, for instance, but section headers and captions may not appear in the right place if you tinker with the settings), and it remains to be seen exactly what Steve Jobs meant by including PDFs in ibooks. He didn't say "sell PDFs through the ibookstore", and for material where there's any kind of fixed formatting, PDF is still the best way.
There are some serious bugs in InDesign CS5 for epub creation, although the chapter splitting feature is very tempting. But I think a lot of production shops are waiting to see if Adobe will release a point update before moving to CS5, for all the hassles in CS4.
The other big consideration is the platform wars. If you want maximum readership, you will need separate formatting for Nook, Kindle, ibooks, and now there is a new ereader that is going to be sold in all kinds of general purpose stores like CVS, for example. Formatting for that isn't known yet.
Eventually this will all shake out. They are working on a new standard for epub that should help with a lot of the current problems, but that's probably 18 months away or more.
Another option is to publish your book as an app. I did see a press release last week from someone who is selling a kit to turn a book into an app, but I haven't heard any feedback about whether it's any good or not. Or you can do what the Take Control series has been doing: sell a PDF and recommend GoodReader.
I was pretty excited about that blog post last fall where someone claimed to have found ebook creation embedded in the Pages package, but in reality right now it's a highly complex process, no matter where you start, so it's not surprising this hasn't come to pass. My own ideal would be to be able to lay out a book in Pages and use that as the basis for a PDF or just send a perfect epub straight to the ibookstore, but I'm not sanguine that this will ever be possible.

Cannot find how to export from Pages to ePub

I have Pages '09, and looked on Apple's tutorials for how to export as an ePub file... It says just click share, export, ePub, but I do not have an ePub option. My only options are PDF, Word, RTF, and Plain Text. Am I missing something very obvious?

It's interesting that 'they' have decided to NOT let folks on 10.4 produce an ePub (from Pages). I understand that I cannot 'do' the whole ePub consumer side on this machine but I was hoping to get a bit of a headstart while on the road. (The mini at home base is running 10.6 and is my ePub production environment. That version of iWork9 does have the later Pages, which is why I was surprised when I could not find the same UI on my 'travel' machine.)
As to why I don't upgrade the G4? I need one machine that can run Classic. So it will live at 10.4.11 for the rest of its life.
I have my fingers crossed that today's announcement will include a suitable Macbook Air update ... one that is not too wide and/or too high. (The 13" 'books have been too large a footprint to replace my trusty 12" so I've been holding out...)

Cannot transfer .mov audio from pages to epub

I am a total newbie at making epubs...
I have dragged a .mov audio file made in quicktime into my pages document. It is inline. The audio file works when I click on it (speaker icon) in the pages document.
After converting to epub, the speaker icon disappears and I have no audio available.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Going from Pages to EPUB using InDesign?

Is there a guide for going from a Pages document to EPUB using InDesign? The target is a book that is over 105K words for 425 pages.
I am an absolute beginner with InDesign and I was hoping to more finely control the outcome of EPUB generation by using InDesign rather than outputting from Pages using Export to EPUB. Unfortunately, ID isn't quite as intuitive as I had hoped it would be and I've run up against the wall.
Do I load each chapter as a separate document and then collect them as a book file? Or can the book be loaded as one document? I've been trying as one document, but I can't it to appear in the main editing window. (It shows up fine in the story editing, but that gets tedious very quickly.)
Last, while ID creates EPUB files, can it generate a MOBI or AZW file for the Amazon Kindle? I found no references for in concerning ID in the documentation, but thought I'd ask anyway.

Thanks, Steve!
I've already been hand-building the CSS & EPUB files. I was just hoping that InDesign would make it easier. Clearly, that's not the case.
Apple's Pages does a very good job generating an EPUB which only requires a minimal amount of tweaking to the CSS to give it a final polish and further adjustments for e-readers other than an iOS device. Generating the MOBI/AZW for Kindle requires a bunch of jumping through hoops to prepare, which was what I was hoping to avoid.
A few days to release, I have plenty of time get get the ebooks ready.
A good heads up for any competent programmers out there—of which I am not—there is a huge market of self-publishing authors in need of a program that can take a RTF, Word or Pages formatted document and smoothly turn it into an EPUB or AZW file.

Reg: BAM Data not moving from MsgBox to PrimaryImport

Hello All,
I am facing one issue with BAM where the data's are not getting moved from MessageBox to BAMPrimaryImport. We had some issue so I un-configured BAM alone and deleted all the existing DB's related to BAM and re-configured BAM.
Now, I see the data in TrackingData_x_x tables. But
TDDS_StreamStatus table is empty. I don't see any sequence number. I did the following
Used Terminator and deleted all the rows in the TrackingData_x_x tables.
Checked all the SQL Agent Jobs and its all running with no error in the History.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks
Thanks, SKGuru

Found the solution:
Under managementDB, the following two tables were having the old server name.
TDDS_Source, TDDS_Destinations.
After updating the proper server name, it started working.

Photos not moving from last import into photos

osx 10.9.5, photos import but do not move from last import to photos, when I import more then the previous imported disappear and the newest imported just sit in the last import section

You are confused - neither last import or photos are places - nothing moves - both are simply different ways to view photos in your library - everything that is in last import is also in Photos and also in an event
Most likely you have the date set wrong on your camera or you have the sort set wrong - check the sort under the view menu - sort photos (on when viewing events sort events)

Notes Moved From iPhone to iPad

I was trying to figure out how to sync up my note on my IPhone with the iPad. Last year when I first got the iPad I was able to sync my iPhone with the IPad. When I would write notes on the iPhone 3GS it would update the notes on the iPad whenever they were both in WiFi. At some point this changed and two days ago I went to sync the notes back up through the cloud I guess?
Everything that I could check notes on in the setting was checked and everything was fine. But when I went back into the iPhone settings to try to figure out what I checked to synced them up I ended up loseing all notes on the phone. All I had done was uncheck notes under my email accounts and they just disappeared! I tried rechecking it under the email accounts but they did not come back. They are all in the iPad so their not gone. But what happened? The Notes had not been checked under my email accounts to begin with on my phone. So I dont understand why after turning notes on in the iPad, turning notes back off under email accounts on the phone deleted them all? It won't even show me the Accounts tab in the notes app like it did when I had first turned notes on under email accounts. I have that option on the iPad but it disappeared on the phone after turning notes back off in the phone.
I'd like to get it back to the way things were where I could update notes in the iPad and iPhone at the same time. It made things so much easier...
A little bit of info, my iPhone has never been updated because of not having a proper computer. I've plugged the phone into computer when I first got it, added music and it hasn't been plugged into a computer since. The iPad is a used first gen iPad I got it completely reset with nothing on it from my mother. And the iPad also has never been plugged into the computer since I have owned it. So it not like I've updated anything and lost my notes. I just turned notes on under Cloud and everywhere else I could find to turn Notes on under in both the iPad and iPhone. Then when I went into the setting for iphone after the notes got onto the iPad, and turned off the notes under email accounts, they just up and disappeared from the iPhone and I am confuzzled =/
Every problem I've ever had I have been able to find answers too online, but I've yet to come across anyone who did exactly what I have done to loose all my notes on my iPhone but keep all notes on the iPad?

Something I just now remembered, I DO NOT have THE CLOUD on my iPhone because it has never been updated. Cloud is only on the iPad. Could that be why this happened?
