What is the "Live" page and need help in data merge

Hello,
Im very new to indesign so bare with me. Im trying to data merge (Need to create a merge template?) and from what I understand is that I need it to be on the "Live" page. Someone on the forum suggested this.....
There are two ways to set up the merge template. You can put your placholders on the master page or on the live page. If the placehlders are on the master page, only the frame(s) with the placeholders, along with any other grouped objects, will be duplicated. On the live page, ID will try to duplictate EVERYTHING on the page, so you must be very careful about the setup and sizing of objects.
I would like to be on the LIVE page...how do I do this? I got everything else sorted but cannot get multiple records for the life of me to come up.
Thanks in adavance for your help

Thanks for all your help, Peter. I will do the step and repeat method like you said. I dont know why I cant get this camera for the images to work but I did what you said with Word paint after capturing the page using the keyboard. Unfortunately I cant copy and paste the indesign screen to this page.
Thanks again for your patience and good help.
With kind Regards,
John
P.S Im sure you will see more questions as I make my way through indesign. LOL

  • Help.  I had to re-install the OS system and need help.

    I had to re-install everything for a problem I rather not get into but.....I had just published a site using iWeb. I forgot to get a copy of my "Site" folder and can no longer open my files that I have published on the Internet using iWeb. Is there a way that I can download it or do I have to make my pages all over again?
    Thanks,

    Wapepper,
    Sorry to tell you but the answer is really no.
    Your iWeb site is held in the domain file which lives here:
    User / Library / Application Support / iWeb / domain.sites
    You need to start your site from scratch if you dont have this file, you may be able to use copy /paste to pull some of the data back from your published site.
    Note: If you give your new site the same name in Site Organizer in iWeb as the old site, it will delete the old site when you publish the new one.

  • New to the Airport Express and NEED help

    I am really network stupid, I just purchased an Airport Express to play Itunes over my stereo. I have a linksys router. I always get the same error message..."The airport assistant found windows is not allowed to manage wireless networks on this computer this can be a result of having a 3rd party that manages the wireless networks" ... can any one help me on this

    The issue is that your laptop's wireless zero configuration (WZC) service is currently controlled by a third-party utility, instead of by WinXP OS. Typically, this is due to vendors like Dell, who provide an alternative method that is enabled by default. The AirPort Setup Assistant is expecting the native WZC service, and thus, why you're seeing the error message.
    Note: I am going to assume that you are using a Dell laptop for these instructions.
    You can, temporarily, disable the third-party tool, by doing the following steps:
    - Right-click on the Dell Wireless Network Connection utility icon in the System Tray.
    - Select "Open Utility" from the pop-up menu.
    - In the "Dell Wireless WLAN Card Utility" window, click on the "Wireless Networks" tab to select it.
    - Uncheck the option "Let this tool manage your wireless networks."
    - Click "OK" to close the window.
    - Re-run the AirPort Setup Assistant to setup the AX.
    To reenable this option, just do the same steps, but re-check the option.

  • New to the Ipod World and Needing Help

    Im use to using the diffrent mp3 player's. I was hoping to know if its possible to sync music from Windows Media Player to the Ipod Nano 5th Generation. I tried and my Ipod says no music but its taking up space.

    You need to use iTunes and add the songs to your iTunes library then sync them from iTunes. If they are copy protected songs you purchased they will not be added to your library.

  • Im new at the adobe sceen and need help with transfering a photo and before that making or down load

    im trying to find out how do I down load back drops and then apply a picture to it

    How you go about downloading a background depends on the OS (Windows or Mac OS).
    Also, be aware of copyrights; if you intend to use this background and image professionally, be sure you have permission to use them if they're not yours.
    Simple way of doing this:
    Open the background. Open the image you want in the foreground. Select > All on the menu bar. Click and drag the contents to the background image by dragging to the background image's title tab. Release.

  • How can I add a new Template to My Templates in Pages? I've read most of the discussions on the subject but it doesn't work for me. By the time I reach the Templates folder, I only see templates for Numbers and not for Pages. Need help, please.  Thanks

    Si vous avez utilisé la commande Save As Template depuis Pages, il y a forcément un dossier
    iWork > Pages
    contenant Templates > My Templates
    comme il y a un dossier
    iWork > Numbers
    contenant Templates > My Templates
    Depuis le Finder, tapez cmd + f
    puis configurez la recherche comme sur cette recopie d'écran.
    puis lancez la recherche.
    Ainsi, vous allez trouver vos modèles personnalisés dans leur dossier.
    Chez moi, il y en a une kyrielle en dehors des dossiers standards parce que je renomme wxcvb.template quasiment tous mes documents Pages et wxcvb.nmbtemplate à peu près tous mes documents Numbers.
    Ainsi, quand je travaille sur un document, je ne suis pas ralenti par Autosave.
    Désolé mais je ne répondrai plus avant demain.

  • How do I know if my iphone has successfully been backed up to my iTunes? I plugged it in and it said it backed up and I did a sync, but when I am looking through the summary page and I am not sure that all of my data got backed up. Please help!!

    I have never backed up my iphone to my itunes because I always used the cloud. However, a few months ago, my wifi disk in my phone burned out so the Apple Store told me to back up everything to my itunes. I am going today to get the iphone 6 so I connected my phone (iphone 4S) to my itunes and I backed up and synced. However, when I look throughout the summary page and click in different areas (Photos, Movies), I don't see any of my data -- it is still asking me to Sync from iPhoto or to sync from another location. By backing up & syncing my phone, did all of my data get saved? Or do I still need to do more steps?
    Sorry for the long winded question, I am just so nervous to get a new phone and plug it in to be restored and not have any of my pictures, videos or contacts, etc. Any help would be so so appreciated!

    Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
    I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
    Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
    Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(
    How can I sync using USB? Right now when i click on the info tab for my iPhone in my iTunes this is the answer that I get -- I am a little unclear as to what it means.
    Sync Contacts:
    Your contacts are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone
    Sync Calendars:

    I have created a flyer in mac pages and need to get it to a printer to do a mass gloss printing. can someone advise how to do this.. should i and can i burn the document to a cd or dvd to give to the printer?
    Thanks

    Some may need a CD while others may need a DVD or can use either medium.  Why not call your printer, tell them what you've got and ask them what they need to do the job you want done?  That way, you'll be working with what he/she needs to complete the job properly.
