Why do some pages disappear in portrait mode?

iBooks Author 1.1
I created a new template page when I authored a book. I added this page to the end of several chapters. When I preview the book in ipad the page shows up in landscape mode but disappears in portrait mode. It is composed simply of two text fields.
Any ideas?
Thank you,
Scott

Not sure whether this applies to your sitation, I suggested this as a last straw…
Click on the layout page for the affected pages in the top section on the pane on the left. In the inspector, click the layout tab and select the layout pane. Near the bottom is a tickbox "Shared with portrait layout".
I tried to attach a screenshot, and Safari lets me select an image to attach, but the "Insert" button remains greyed out. I tried jpg, tiff, and png, no luck. I've attached images before and noticed that I sometimes have to try two or three times before the "Insert" button becomes active after selecting an image. This time, it didn't work at all, sorry.
Michi.

Why do some pages (Facebook) in Safari 5.1 show up in History when Private Browsing is turned on in Lion??

Agreed, going to Firefox is the step in the right privacy direction.

To deny your computer from accessing Facebook
In Admin user
sudo pico /etc/hosts
Arrow down below the material you see there and don't change it
add
0.0.0.0 www.facebook.com
0.0.0.0 www.facebook.net
control x to exit and save.
another easier way (can use in Standard User this way) is to use the free TextWrangler and open file by name:
/etc/hosts
and perform the same thing.

Problems viewing all page content in portrait mode

Have just tried authoring first iBook using templates and when viewed in portrait mode I get titles of pages but content is missing so have to go to landscape mode.
There seems to no way of starting at front of book as it opens automatically at page one and only scrolls forward. To ensure continuity and visuals do I author in portrait or landscape mode.

Layout in landscape....edit in portrait. Verify in both.
Note some elements have a 'share in portrait' attribute you can set in the Inspector.

Creating 2 page spread in portrait mode...

I plan to do my folio only in portrait mode. I have noticed in various digital publications (like Fast Company) advertisements that cover what would be considered a "spread" in the print world.
It is my assumption to do this the "ad" would need to be suppled or created in two diffrent files. One file would have the left hand side of the page and the other the right hand side of the page (perfect splice of course).
Then they are uploaded as seperate files then once the folio is created the end user would just swipe from the left hand side of the spread to the right. They appear as sepeate pages in the quick view mode. Repeat process for 3 page 4 page portrait only spread etc..
I'd also like to make a lead spread for a story. I assume take this approach (mentioned above) and the right hand/second page of the spread would be connected to the document that includes the full editorial.
Am I missing anything? Or am I wrong in my perception of how to create these portrait only spreads
Another way I thought of creating spreads is just to place a image (built to 1280 x 720 ) into a scrolling text box on a single portrait page and have the user swipe in a horizontal direction only and then they can swipe down to read the full editorial.
Sorry if it sounds elementary but I just want to double check my assumption on how its done before laying it out and want to tell my advertisers once they decide to supply a 2 page spread ad for the first time as many of them are used to creating traditonal print spreads.
thanks in advance.

Your thinking is right. Your best approach is to split them into two pages and upload them as separate articles. If aligned well, from the reader's standpoint, it looks like a two-page spread when reading.
Putting it into a scrollable frame is problematic as the user won't be able to swipe horiziontally to the next article. The scrollable frame will catch that horizontal movement and use it to scroll the content inside the frame.

HELP - Edge Animate issues - buttons/symbols not working/disappearing in portrait mode on mobile devices

Edge Animate - Issues - buttons/symbols not working/disappearing when in portrait mode on iPad and mobile devices, but in landscape version everything is fine.
Everything works cross broswer on Desktop - Safari, Chrome, Explorer and Firefox - mobile devices prove glichy... anyone else experience this?
It's a regular issue of mine, particularly with complex animations. Symbols disappear
- is it something to do with overflow?
- responsive scaling?
I have no idea.

Since no one has answer this post, I recommend opening a support case with CSS as they can work with you to solve this problem.

Why do some pages not appear on screen?

My wife is using the latest version of Keynote. Apparently some pages of text are not appearing on screen when she gives presentations in schools. This has happened across several projectors but the presentation runs fine on the computer! I have met problems like this with video codecs but never just basic pages of text. I presume that things like fonts are irrelevant in this context?

Thanks for this. My wife can't remember which version she used to create the presentation. She still has both versions on board but this sometimes creates issues when she is in a classroom. I had suggested that the newer version was now maturing but it sounds like she will still need to keep both versions installed. I wonder if content could be copied and pasted into the newer version to overcome this problem? Once again thanks for your help.

Why does some text disappear in Design View?

Hi,
I've had a website for about six years. On my Windows XP computer I used Dreamweaver 8 with minimal problems. When I upgraded to Windows 7 last spring, I bought Dreamweaver CS5. I've had a lot of problems since then. Here's the latest and most serious:
I went to edit my homepage about a week ago, and all the text in the middle column (not the left or right sidebars) suddenly disappeared in Design View. If I click on Live View, the text shows up, as it does on the internet. This now seems to be happening in each page I open. I'm unable to edit my pages.
I tried to install the recent update from Adobe.com, but was unable to do so. An adobe tech told me to reinstall Dreamweaver and try again. No luck.
I never had this problem in earlier versions of Dreamweaver. My website is on the first page of Google in many categories, and I'm afraid to change it much. How do I fix this problem?

Why are some pages half size

When I get pages using Bookmarks some of them (e.g. Ebay, Amazon) are full width and others (e.g. Craigslist) are only have width and if I open another, even if it's Ebay or Amazon it also goes half width.
What have I done wrong?
Thank You

Check that you aren't opening bookmarks in the sidebar.
Opening in the side bar is the default for bookmarks that are created via a link or button on a website.<br />
You can check the Properties of a bookmark via the right-click context menu in the side bar (Ctrl+B; Cmd+B on Mac).<br />
In the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) you can click the More button in the Details pane at the bottom right.<br />
Make sure that "Load this bookmark in the side bar" is not selected.<br />

Why are some apps disappearing from my ipod?

I have purchased several apps. For some reason those apps disappeared and even though I can see them on my computer screen, they don't appear on my ipod. What should I do? I have tried syncing, updating software, removing them and reassigned them but nothing has worked.

Are they selected to sync to the device?
What happens if you try to download them directly on the device?
Are you certain they are not simply hiding on another home screen or in a folder?

Why do some pages look blurry?

I have noticed that some websites look blurry and also when I am trying to read an assignment in word it looks almost pixelated. What can I do to make it look clearer?

Do they still look blurry on the "best" setting for Retina?
The problem I see is, there are many applications around that were created a decade ago, and the developers have moved on. These are still valuable applications for many people. Are they just always going to look crappy on the Retina MacBook? That sounds pretty undesirable.
The difference with the iPhone is, the Retina was an upgrade, but didn't make existing applications look worse.

Why do some pages require flash player and why cant i download it and get it to work.

i have uninstalled, reinstalled etc. 2011 MBP. why does'nt quicktime do what flash player says it does?

First point: I don't know why they don't just have the PKG file for download, other than it's harder for unscrupulous folks to make a DMG that will pass the "Gatekeeper" checksum.
Second point: Since the browser uses the Flash Player Plugin, trying to update it while the browser is running would be akin to trying to change your oil while driving down the freeway at 70MPH. And then there's the whole "admin password needed" thing, that would prevent "blind updates".
You can always download the offline installer: Flash Player (For Mac OS X) and run it whenever you want.
