Why can't I link one Pages document to another Pages document?

You'd think this would be a basic functionality in Pages: to be able to create a hyperlink in one Pages document that opens another Pages document.
Currently I'm using iWork 2008, and I can't do this.
Can I do it in iWork 2009?
Until I can, iWork, in my mind, will be "iCan'tWorkTheWayiNeedTo".

right- so I can stop hunting for the "make coffee" feature in iWork 2008
seriously though - features that were available in AppleWorks, I foolishly thought would also be available in iWork.
I perfectly agree with the used adjective.
Why would Pages offer the same features than AppleWorks ?
Different teams made different choices.
So I'll wait for Apple to do this. I'm not going to spend £60 for iWork 2009 just so as to be able to link to other Pages documents.
I wrote several times that, as we are in october, it would be a good idea to wait until end of january 2010. Often it's the date of major upgrade delivery.

  • Why can't I get one track to open in page view?

    Hi all, I am having trouble in the score getting only one track to display in the score editor. I select the track,which has 47 bars with one extra region [bar 34-triplets] that must remain as a separate region because the triplets won't work when joined to the regions in back or in front of bar 34.So I click hold shift and select the 3 regions or just select the track[which selects all regions on that track]
    But I get a complete score instead of just the one track I want. So far no amount of fiddling with the controls[page view, hierarchy button, chain linked button] will give me the one track alone in page view. Has any one had this happen? Would some one like to help? Have any of you seen this behavior before?

    I don't know what I did to solve this, but I think it's solved by making a "duplicate of each track, then the tracks are all independent , got that from the LUG too

  • In Pages 5.0.1. is there any way to link one pages document to another pages document.  If so, How?

    Is Pages 5.0.1 is there any way to link one Pages document to another Pages document?  If so, Please, How?

    Well, you could trade it in for a white one! 
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

  • How do I link pages similar to my e-edition newspaper? I subscribe to an app version of my complete local newspaper. When reading an article on page 1a I can click a link to continue to read on page 4a. Then it flips through the paper to page 4a.

    How do I link pages similar to my e-edition newspaper? I subscribe to an app version of my complete local newspaper. When reading an article on page 1a I can click a link to continue to read on page 4a. Then it flips through the paper to page 4a. Once done reading 4a I can click a link back to page 1a. I would like to embed these links in a 100+ page document in order to flip back and forth throughout it for quick reference.

    You can do this on your computer using Adobe Acrobat. Buy the program and learn how to create complex PDFs.

  • Why can i see only one picture in the illustration windows with iTunes 10.5.1?

    why can i see only one picture in the illustration windows since iTunes 10.5.1?

    Assuming Apple doesn't eviscerate the files of the secondary graphics with another upgrade, there could be a plug in that reads the graphic and runs along side iTunes..we should get someone or Apple to program an alternative If we have to accept this downgrade in iTunes proper.
    I've developed a quick workaround, and am still hoping Apple will fix this!
    Go To Get Info on the tune you want to see secondary artwork for.
    Go To the Artwork tab
    Drag the back cover to the desktop, and it will create a new jpg you can open with quick viw or prieview where you can see it large!
    you end up with a lot of jpgs on the desktop to discard!

  • Why can I no longer copy and paste a whole page in page thumbnail?

    Why can I no longer copy and paste a whole page in page thumbnail?

    Apple has removed over 95 features in Pages 5.
    It has also introduced multiple file formats that are incompatible with each over as well as everything else, and numerous bugs.
    Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.

  • Why can I not create a PDF from a web page on my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro on my new Windows 8 computer? It worked fine on my windows XP system?

    Why can I not create a PDF from a web page on my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro on my new Windows 8 computer? It worked fine on my windows XP system?

    Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Windows 8,  for the simple reason it was
    created much before it and Adobe could not participate the changes to the
    OS that Microsoft implemented many years later on. You need to buy the
    current version for compatibility.

    Why can't I make comments and highlight text in a document?

    Nothing happens. I can select the text but when I go to “highlight” it the button is grayed out and nothing happens. Is there some sort of code that prevents certain publications from having portions of their text highlighted?

    why can't I charge me ipod shuffle on another computer? My "home computer" is the one at work.

    So you are trying to connect your iPod Shuffle to another computer you don't normally sync it with is that correct?  And it won't charge for some reason?  How are you connecting it?  To a USB or a USB port located directly on the PC?

  • Setting up a link from a grid to another page

    All,
    Is there a way to create a link from a grid to another page?
    Thanks.

    You will need to find a tutorial for a drop down or cascading menu.  What you should try is to Google "AS2 drop down menu tutorial" and "AS2 cascading menu tutorial".  You may not find exactly what you are describing, but will hopefully find something you can figure out how to adapt to meet your goals.

  • Is there a way I can move movies from one itunes library to another on the same computer?

    Is there a way I can move movies from one itunes library to another on the same computer?

    Locate them in the Windows Explorer, move or copy those files as you would any other, and drag them into the open iTunes window when the second library is loaded. If you're using two iTunes libraries on one user account, you only need to locate the files; otherwise, they need to be put in a shared area.
