Why can't i write text directly in a Pages document without using a text box ?

Hello buddies,
Once upon a time, when I was running Leopard on my MB black, I was able to open a Pages document and type text directly without creating a textbox. That was a great way to take notes during a meeting or to past a long document in, without thinking how many pages it will takes.
Apparently, this is no more possible ...
Is any of you can tell me why ?
And then how can I do to have this possibility back ?
Thanks forward,
Best regards,
Stéphane

Because you have opened a Layout template.
Go back to the Template Chooser and pick a Word Processing template, they are listed in the sidebar.

  • I am taking my iPhone5 to Peru, where the voltage in electrical outlets is 220V. Can I recharge my iphone directly from the power outlet without using a voltage converter?

    Can I recharge my iPhone 5 directly from a power oulet in Peru where the line voltage is 220V without using a voltage converter?

    I would like to have a go at this.
    I am presently in Hong Kong. Just prior to this trip, I purchased an iP5. I have taken my iP4S to many countries and charged the phone by either using the USB connection to my laptop or by using Apple's World Travel Adaptor Kit.
    Only after getting to HKG did I try to hook up my iP5 to the Apple travel adaptors and of course they do not fot and I do not have an adaptor that goes from 30 pin to the lightning cable.
    So is it actually safe to take the original iP5 cable and charger and simply add an international plug adaptor that I am also using with my laptop? If so does that in fact mean that the iP5 can take 220 without converting the voltage that I thought was done by the Apple Travel Adaptor Kit?

  • Is it possible to label photos in pages docs without using a text box which is not directly 'fixed' to the photo

    having imported photos from iPhoto I require to label them to make it clear as to what they represent in the text.

    My two cents.
    Insert the picture in the text box embedding the label.
    This way you will be able to move both of them easily.
    Here the text box is deliberately too large so that you see it.

  • HT1454 Is it possible to connect iPad directly to my smart tv without an Apple TV box?

    Can I connect my iPad directly to my smart tv without using an Apple TV box?

    Yes, using an appropriate video cable.
    Such as: http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MD098ZM/A/apple-digital-av-adapter?fnode=3a
    Make sure you get the right one for your iPad and whatever connection you have on your TV.

  • Why can't I email photos direct from iPhoto?

    Why can't I email photos directly from iPhoto, or even attach them to email?

    I get a dotted frame outline with an exclamation
    This is the source of all the problems. iPhoto can't mail the files because it cannot find them.
    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    What version of iPhoto? Assuming it's 09 or later:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Why can't I update apps directly on my iPad?

    Why can't I update apps directly on my iPad?

    If your iPad is 3G then I think Johnathan has answered the question - if the downloads were larger than 20MB. If the downloads were smaller than 20MB you can try restarting or resetting your iPad and see if that helps.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

    If you don't want to install an add-on, you can use the ''userChrome.css'' file instead, but I don't recommend it.

  • HT204088 Why can't you print a cd jewel case listing of songs using iTunes. Is there some other way of doing this without using iTunes?

    Why can't you print a cd jewel case listing of songs using iTunes. Is there some other way to do this without using iTunes?

    Hi spider1950,
    As long as you have the most recent update of iTunes (11.0.4), you should be able to print a jewel case insert directly from iTunes. You may find the following page useful:

  • How can I create a text pop up window in my Pages document? I want text to pop up when the reader hovers his/her cursor over a certain word.

    How can I create a text pop up window in my Pages document? I want text to pop up when the reader hovers his/her cursor over a certain word in the document. I am teacher. So for example when a student came to word he/she did not know, if he/she hovered the cursor over the word, a defintion or other information would appear.  You can do this in Word using bookmarks/hyperlinks but I can't figure this out in Pages. I can link it to another point in my Pages document but I just need the text to pop up - not take the reader to another location.  THANK YOU!!!!!!

    Have you tried Word for Mac?
    You will need to test if links survive export or printing to .pdf

  • How can I paste a part of a sheet from Numbers in Pages as text, without the formulas.The reason I need this (and was used to in Office) so that I have the freedom to delete something in one cell (in pages document) without causing changes.

    How can I paste a part of a sheet that I copied in Numers in a pages document without the formulas, simply as text. Used this a lot in Office. When I make some changes in the pages document. f.i. deleting a cell, I don't want to change other cells. Also when I copy a part of a sheet from Numbers and one of the cells that is part of the formula is not also copied, when I paste in Pages it shows as an error.
    Hope that You can me help with this.

    Leon,
    There are two solutions to the first question, narrowing to one solution when you have a broken link causing an error.
    Here's the "works always" solution.
    Copy (Command-C) the table or range in Numbers
    Click off the table on the blank canvas of the sheet.
    Edit > Paste Values
    Command-C
    Switch to Pages
    Command-V

    Why can't I connect to Exchange Server 2003? I'm using OS Lion. My iphone connects, what am I doing wrong?

    the iPhone uses active sync. Desktop clients do not. Desktop clients use another exchange protocol (which i can't remember as i'm not a microsofty).
    Just because you can access via active sync doesn't mean you can access it by other methods, and vice versa.

  • Why can I not print anything from a web page?

    Why can I not print anything from a web page?

    Thank you, but I still haven't solved my problem. I tried the reset suggestion. But I cannot find print.print_printer preference. Maybe the word "printer" is to be replaced with the name of my printer. But because of the warning that making any changes is a very dangerous thing to do, I hesitated to do anything.
    I have located the Print to file option, but it is not checked.
    This problem did not exist before the Firefox update of about 6 months ago. Today I downloaded the latest Firefox update, hoping that would solve my problem, but it did not.
    Thank you for your continued assistance.
