UNIX command to quit pages without saving?

I know that killall "pages" quits pages, but I need a command to quit without saving.. I can't find on anywhere and I don't know anything about unix commands!!!

Welcome,
Opening the Pages dictionary there seems to be a standard command:
tell application "Pages"
quit saving no
end tell
Regards,
Shawn

I can't open blank template. Can't quit pages without force quit. Re-installed pages, no change, checked for updates, non needed everything else appears ok

I can't open a blank template, Can't quit pages without force quit, re-installed pages, no updates needed, rest of program seems to work, any answers?

Before trying to answer, I wish to check if you are really running under 10.4.11 and in this case, which is the exact application's version in use.

Smartforms command to next page without balnk area in main area

Hi all,
i have created a smart form for Notification printing.
i have one page called page1
page1
->Text page from 1 to 8.
-> text reported by : Tark
->MainWindow.
->Table itab1 into itab1
->loop1 itab into itab. where adrnar = itab1-adrnar.
->loop2 itab2 into itab2. where QMNUM = itab1-QMNUM.
->command - next page to page1 .
while printing it prints 6 documents in 7 pages.
pages no 7 or last page contain page no and rported name but
main window is blank.
i need to print one document in one page second in next page and i wand cancel last page because it blank in main window area.
expecting the reply.
regards
Esam

Dear experts,
My present issue is that i have a page
Page1
MainWindow
Node1
Node2
Node3
If i create new page
Page1
MainWindow
Node1
Node2
Node3
Page2
If i check fom,i get error no new page can be created without a mainwindow
then i add a new window and declare it as main
Page1
MainWindow
Node1
Node2
Node3
Page2
MainWindow2
Now it says that two main windows cannot exist.
THIS THING SHOULDNT HAVE HAPPENED...WHATS UR ECC VERSION?? I CHECKED IN 7..U CAN DO THAT IN THIS VER.
I join my hands together and make Main Window as Secondary window
Page1
MainWindow
Node1
Node2
Node3
Page2
SecondaryWindow
Now i check and get you cannot create a page without main window.
AGAIN SMTHING IS WRONG. A PAGE WITHOUT A MAIN WINDOW CAN HAVE A NEXT PAGE POINTING TO A PAGE WITH MAIN WINDOW.
Now i say to smartforms not yours not mine,
i copy the same mainwindow of page1 to page2 .Now whaever action i perform with mainwindow of page2 same happens to page1 too.
IT HAS BECOME A COPIES WINDOW..WHATEVER U DO IN PG1.GETS REFLECTED IN PG2..
I have already declared that next page is Page2 in page 1 and page2 in page2 itself.What i am missing ?

Quit aperture without file save?

Is there any way to quit Aperture without saving changes made during session?

No the changes to the library are made real time not stored up and applied when the program closes.
Is there something specific you are looking to be able to do (or undo)?

Sending a unix command but can't authenticate

I'm using ARD to manage a lab and sending an rm command via ARD to delete a particular file in the student account's library. The command is sent fine and then a box comes up asking me to enter the password to complete the task.
The problem is there is no cursor in the box and no matter where I click, I can't enter the password at all.
Has this happened to anyone else?

It's actually labeled "Run command as..." I was in a hurry and mislabeled the command in my previous post. You'll find more information on the "Send UNIX Command" option on page 145 of the ARD 3 Administrator's Guide.
Regards.

ARD and UNIX commands with outdated MAN pages. (e.g. networksetup)

I may have read it wrongly or referred to the wrong MAN page for "networksetup", but while trying to set proxies, I realise that networkservice for the ethernet port was no longer "Built-in Ethernet" but just Ethernet (without the quotes). Took quite some time to figure that one out. Any ideas if it's just the "new" MacBooks or 10.6.4 listing differently these days? I got my multiple unix commands to work :
networksetup -setwebproxy Ethernet proxy 3128;
networksetup -setwebproxy AirPort proxy 3128;
networksetup -setproxybypassdomains Ethernet 10.0.1.10 *.local 10.0.0.200 10.0.0.0/16;

Hi
I found this out a few weeks ago after trying for about 20-30 minutes or so. Won't be the first time manual pages were wrong or out-of-date, nor the last. Depending which OS you're running there are manual pages for utilities that don't exist any more. I remember ktrace disappearing in 10.5 yet the manual page was still available. Completely gone in 10.6.

Logic crashes when using the "Close Project without Saving" key command

The "Close Project without Saving" key command does not work in LP8. When I try to use it, Logic crashes. This is reproducible on my system. Can anyone try and confirm this?

For me this shortcut is quite important on stage when I have to switch songs as fast as possible. It also is foolproof because on stage I never want to save with all the controller changes I did during a performance.
Just hit the key command, load the next song, done.

Can I retrieve a Page document I just closed without saving? (-:

Can I retrieve a Page document I just closed without saving? (-:

If the OP's information is correct (Snow Leopard), there is no autosave.
Otherwise, the idea that you must save once before autosave kicks in seems to be one of those bits of misinformation that gets repeated so many times that everyone starts to believe it. I never used Lion or Yosemite, but certainly with Mountain Lion and Mavericks, autosave does save documents before they are saved to a real file. Since that is essential to the ability to restore open windows on relaunch, I am pretty sure it also applies to the systems that I haven't used.
I think the system may not keep versions until a document is explicitly saved.
Closing an unsaved document will discard the autosave information in any case, but, at least with the way I've had my preferences set, it does throw up a dialog asking you to confirm that you want to discard the data.

When i close the browser it ask whether you want quit or save and quit , when i selet save and quit none of te pages are saved, or if saved where can i find them?

Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox.

Cannot Drag and Drop Computer Name onto saved unix command

I am using ARD 3.3. When trying to drag a computer from Scanner to a Unix command on the sidebar, it does not populate in the task. You have to manually open the command, and then drop into the Computer list. Deleting the com.apple.remotedesktop.plist will correct the problem for about 1 day, but then it goes back to normal. Is there a setting that I am overlooking?
Thank you.

I reinstalled ADE and also changed the USB port I was using. No problems.
I've called BN tech support twice and they've been very helpful.

Executing UNIX command in Java

I am having problems executing a command in Java. Here's the code I have for executing:
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
                                        BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
     while((display = input.readLine()) != null)
                         num_1 = Double.parseDouble(display);
                         percent = (num_1 * 100) / (50000000);
                    flip = 1;
                    catch(IOException e)
                    e.printStackTrace();
                    System.exit(1);

How do I print Mail attachment without saving it first

I'm new to Mavericks. With Mail in Lion, I could scroll to the bottom of an email and double click on the icon for the Word doc or pdf attachment to open it, then hit command P to print it. With Mavericks, it appears that I have to first "save" the document somewhere and then open it and print it. Is this correct?
In most cases, this is an extra step that is unnecessary.
Right now, the attachment displays (opened) within the email, but I don't want to print several pages of an email when all I want is to print the attached doc, for instance, an attached invoice. Also, I can't tell what kind of document it is without saving it, which I don't like. I've tried to find a way around this in preferences but no luck.
I guess what I'd really prefer is to go back to the old Lion version of Mail, or something that approximates it more closely. Do I need to just get over it and realize that I'm going to have to save every attachment if I want to print it or is there a workaround of some sort?

Hi tbirdvet. Even though the content of the attachment now displays as part of the email message, I tried clicking on that portion of the email and, sure enough, the "attachment" popped up in Preview, just like you said. (I kept looking for a Word doc icon or a pdf icon to double click on, but they're no longer found at the bottom of the email or selectable from a drop down menu.)
I'm so glad this worked. Thanks.

Unix Command to Move Folders back into Directory

As you can see from my previous thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3138884?tstart=0
I ended up reinstalling Mac OS X 10.6.0 after using "mkdir" and "mv" Unix commands to move my old files to a "previous" folder and I'm still trying to access my account because it's Vile Vault protected. I wish I knew how to move my old folders out from previous into /volumes/macintosh\ HD
Basically it looks like this right now
~/Volumes/Macintosh/HD\ Previous (I'm not even sure if that's written the right way
I need to move all of the folders out from Previous into ~/Volumes/Macintosh\ HD and deleting the existing ones in it.
All I want to do is have my old Kernel Panic back because I know how to fix it now.
Thank you very much!

I honestly despise the forum setup... Whenever I wait too long the cursor loses focus so when I hit backspace I go back a page and lose everything I wrote. This has happened to me on 3 different computers now.
I don't have this problem at all, and I can't make any suggestions on how to fix it. Maybe you should post a separate thread in the Using the Forums Forum.
So in the end I went against your advice and moved Applications and Users back to their original folder in HD and I logged in just fine! Well, I did have to boot into single user mode to restore Admin Privileges by creating a new account and then changing Privileges. Some programs didn't start up but it's okay, I know which ones rely on System and whatnot but at least I have nearly everything in its original place and I can back it all up.
Ahh, you're made of sterner stuff than me !
Best Buy has $99 1TB WD Passport SE's (The USB 3.0 Version actually!) so I grabbed one immediately and set up Time Machine.
Sounds like a good choice.
Seriously, what other way can you ensure that your data is safe without using File Vault? I use Truecrypt for some things that I don't access much, but daily operations? I'd rather just put up with the sluggish performance of FV!
I think it depends on what level of security you need. Do you routinely have files that simply must not be read by a third party if your computer gets stolen?
FV has always struck me as a hammer to crack a nut, and if something goes wrong you can't even take the disk to a data recovery specialist to get your information back.
On occasions when I have data that must be kept secure I use Disk Utility to set up an encrypted sparse bundle, which I keep on the desktop. When I need to access files in the bundle then I double click on it and enter the password to mount it. A minor problem with this is that TM will copy across the whole sparse bundle even if just one file on it is edited. Even so, it's not really a problem since TM is working in the background.
Thank you for all your help Bob!
You're most welcome

Unix command to send to remote computer

I am looking for a unix command or automator action ( to use with ARD) to send to a remote mac that is running Safari. I would like to be able to reload a web page by using a unix command. Can anyone help me with this?

You mean you're trying to load a local file that's saved on the remote computer? If that's what you're trying to do, you can use the Spotlight search (if the client is 10.4 or 10.5) or the File Search to find the file and then just launch it. If this will be repetitive with the same file name, you can save the task if you have ARD 3.x.
