Using Pages over two screens

I wonder if it is possible to work with Pages or even Keynote over two Displays?
For example have a preview over a secondary screen that is rotated in 90 degrees.
Grant most Macs have the ability to spam over two screens.

You are asking for two sorts of support :
1. Globally, the operating system supports several colour managed screens at the same time. You have to have the horsepower, but if you have that then it is not a problem.
2. Locally, the application may or may not support several window views of the same document at the same time. For instance, Adobe Illustrator has done this since version 3 at least.
If you can't get Pages to support (2), save a copy of the document and open that in order to do what you want. Meanwhile, in paginated publishing it is not seen as important to be able to open multiple views of the same artwork whereas in dealing with the minutiae of an illustration that ability is a lifesaver.

  • Using Maverick in two screen setup sometimes the mouse arrow follows the menu bar when I switch screens, and sometimes not. Sometimes the menu bar is on one screen and the mouse is on the other. What am I missing?

    Am looking for a simple way to move the mouse arrow to the other screen. Must I go to Apple/System prefs? I assume the mouse arrow and the menu bar should stay together. OK, but how do I access the dock when it is not on the screen with the mouse arrow? Is the Dock unmoveable? What is needed, I guess, is a master screen with mouse, dock and menu bar, and the option to select which screen is master with all those commands available.

    You're Welcome...
    Another silly suggestion...
    Have you done a Restart since you were fiddling around with various settings...?

  • Can i use ichat between two separate macs on the same mobile me account?

    Can i use ichat over two separate macs on the same mobile me account?
    I have an imac at home and may be getting a macbook for work. Can i use my mobile me account to chat between the two macs or would i need a mobile me account per mac??

    Hi,
    No.
    You need two names that can login into AIM.
    In iChat you can use the Get an iChat Account which shows after you use the Plus Button in Accounts.
    This will give you a free @mac.com Name
    AIM Names are also free.

  • How can i stretch a window over two displays?

    Hi - how can i stretch a window to display over two screens?
    I have had this working in the past but now have a new Mac and need to set it up again.  I have a second display but when I stretch a window over the two displays half of it fades out. 

    Uncheck "Displays have separate Spaces" in "Mission Control" system preference, logout, then login.

  • JTable and two screens.

    A little problem i stumbeled over:
    I have a JTable that i resize to go over two screens. When i scroll the JTable however, only one half of the JTable is actually scrolled. So for example, after scrolling a bit, on the left screen I see rows 30 to 50, while on the right screen I see rows 0 to 20.
    Anyone ever encountered this problem before? Is it a JTable thing or have I maybe done an error?

    Screen sharing setup in 10.5, 10.6 are described by the links by operating system.  10.7 is fairly similar to 10.6.
    And if both Macs have Firewire, you can setup a Firewire over IP network for fast communication between machines.  Note if you have two different Firewire ports a 6 pin to 9 pin Firewire cable does exist.  There are no Firewire to USB cables.

  • On an iPad, how do I insert a blank page between two using iWork Pages?

    I realize how many times I used the word 'pages' in the question, I was unable to think of a less confusing way to word it. :)
    I am using an iPad with Pages loaded on it. All software is up-to-date. I have downloaded a few templates apps to use with it. I have figured out how to add a blank page to the end of the document (by hitting enter at the base of the previous page before it). However, I would like advice or assistance adding a blank page between two existing pages. The other "trick/work around" is not effective. I'd even appreciate learning how to change the order of the pages so I may place the blank sheet where I need it.
    Hope this makes sense. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance,

    Position the cursor where desired by touching the screen. In the selection bubble that appears,  i.e., Select, Select All, Paste, Insert, choose Insert and from the insert menu choose Page Break. Two Page breaks will produce a blank page.

    The following is how to do a proper reset of an iDevice:
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

  • How to divide footnotes over two pages?

    Im typesetting a book with hundreds of (sometimes long) footnotes. I want a rule above the first footnote of the page. I also want footnotes to divide over two pages, if necessary. I had no problems with this in CS4 (but maybe the circumstances were different). Now I'm using CS5.
    Problem one: when there are more footnote references in the same paragraph at the bottom of the page, all the footnotes go to the next page, even when there is enough space for at least part of the first footnote. I have a workaround for it (only leave the first footnote reference in that paragraph, move the other references to somewhere on the next page, setting the text color to none, and put fake references on the original positions), but that's not ideal. Am I overlooking something?
    Problem two: I set the rule dividing body text and footnotes to 0,3 pt an 40 pt length. With a footnote split over two pages, this goes well for the first page, but on the second page there now is a thick, much longer line (the system standard rule for footnotes?). This problem didn't occur in CS4. Anyone knows whether this will be fixed? Suggestions for a workaround? Or did I do something wrong?

    Thanks for your answer.
    First problem: I checked this, there is no difference when I uncheck the Keep Lines Together option. As for the Keep with Next option, I couldn't even imagine what would happen with 700 footnotes... Anyway, using the trick I mentioned solves the problem (the first footnote in the paragraph splits correctly over two pages).
    Second problem: Strange - I have a Dutch language version and I can't find anything that resembles what you mention (see the image). As you see, there is a dropdown for the usual First baseline options and one for Line above (Lijn boven). In the latter you can only choose between "only a line above the first footnote" (my choice) or "above all footnotes (vervolgvoetnoten)".
    Is this different from the English dialog box?

  • Can a footnote be spread over two pages

    I dislike having footnotes always keeping together in a block, and shifting to the page following the footnote reference marker in the text. (And it is very problematic to fix this for each individual case especially over a book of 900 pages.) Is there any way of allowing a footnote in FM10 to break over two pages, as in standard wordprocessing packages like Word and Wordperfect?

    Not the answer you want, but it’s a categorical “no”.
    You might manage a work-around using a separate text-flow and cross-references, but the built-in footnote function doesn’t allow footnotes to be split.

  • How can i stop Pages and Numbers JUMPING ALL OVER THE SCREEN. MAKING ME SEASICK! PLEASE HELP

    how can i stop Pages and Numbers  screen JUMPING ALL OVER the place when i just touch my mouse. i have tried and tried to change the mouse settings - but it is the software. especially Numbers. you can't even see what the page size is until you print. i am so SEASICK! PLEASE HELP.

    Thanks for the trouble to reply. this problem only happens with Pages and Numbers for me. i have done all the tricks like restarting. the main problem is that the working space is not 'stable' - it has no 'ends' even on full screen. in Numbers - UNLESS I SET IT TO 25% VIEW (which is way too small) - the actual total 'work space' is way off the grid - so every time i move the mouse the table i am working on zooms off to left or right, at the slightest touch. i have set my mouse to no gestures!
    the thing is this did not happen before the latest upgrades.
    but thanks anyway. SG.
    if you are a techy person - i have another prob. in Mail i am unable to set the SORT / VIEW messages to BY DATE.
    (it used to be ok, at one time, too). now it continually reverts to BY SUBJECT oh so annoying !
    restarting etc does not change it. resetting preferences does not change it.
    maybe i need a new Mac ?
    mine is a 27-inch, Mid 2011. running latest.

  • Ho can I use left / right dock position when using two screens?

    OSX 10.9 makes a big thing about having the Dock on the active screen.  This certainly works when the Dock is at the botom of the screen, although it does seem sluggish at times before it appears.  I have tended to have my Dock on the left of the screen as I was getting annoyed at losing the bottom part of the screen on my MBP 13". 
    Mavericks doesnt seem to like this and regardless on how I configure the second screen I can't get the Dock to jump away from the MBP screen, apart from closing the lid on my laptop.  Still happening when I put the two screens vertically rather than horizontally (so that the left side of the screen is not a transition zone between the two).
    This is quite frustrating.  I have tried using Dock at bottom again and am just going to struggle with that having not used it for many years now.
    I wonder whether they have just assumed that most people have the Dock at the bottom and functionality has been built around that.
    Any ideas out there?  Apple, any comments?

    Hello again Kirby, I was able to find a workaround that prevents colors from looking overly vibrant on the external display. It seems the "Swap Displays" option under Aperture's monitor configuration drop-down is the culprit. When this is disabled, colors on both monitors match in vibrancy (as much as one can expect given how different the two screens are). But as soon as you enable "Swap Displays", colors on the external display become twice as vibrant. So then the question becomes, how does one show the thumbnail viewer on the laptop screen while viewing the fullscreen image on the external display?
    The workaround is along the lines of what you posted. In dual-monitor mode, Aperture places the thumbnail viewer by default onto whichever screen holds the system menubar. So by placing the system menubar on the laptop screen, I'm able to work in fullscreen mode in the configuration I want without having to activate "Swap Displays", thereby avoiding the boosted colors bug.
    I'll be sending the issue to Apple Feedback now that I have a better understanding on what exactly causes the issue and how to replicate it. Thanks again Kirby for your assistance.
