Why won't gmail attach the new pages files

So I looked this up and I found that gmail sees the new pages files as executables and so therefore, won't attach them. I've no idea what that means other than that it's very inconvenient.
What's the deal?

Because they are directories, not ordinary files. If you want to attach one of these new Pages v5+ documents to Gmail, you first need to compress it, so that it has the .zip extension. You can do this by right-clicking the document icon, and from the contextual menu, select Compress.... You could reverse this compression by double-clicking the .zip file icon in the Finder.
IOS 7 Mail knows what it is, and if you tap this compressed file attachment, it will uncompress and open in IOS Pages v2.1. Apple OS X Mail knows it is compressed, and in Quick Look, you will be told it is compressed, and given the option to uncompress it. This done, Quick Look displays the content, and provides the opportunity to open the file in Pages v5+. It can also be saved as a regular Pages (directory) document.
This isn't hypothetical as I have tested both paragraphs with the web-based Gmail, Apple Mail, and IOS Mail.

Edited custom buttons - why won't C5 import the new ones?

Hi
I have successfully created new next, home and back buttons and did the up, over and down states.
Captivate 5 picked them up and all seemed fine. I looked again and saw the back seemed to get bigger when it was 'over' the home moved to the left.
I created new buttons as png, making sure they were absolutely the same size in up down and over, and moved them into the buttons folder in Gallery, as before.
I did click on the folder to pick up the new buttons. And I deleted the old buttons before moving new into the 'buttons' folder.
I even cleared cache.
But Captivate still does the same!
Still next gets bigger etc.
I have redone twice now - what can I do?
Thanks for any light on this!

Hi there
My own guess is that Captivate 5 is working pretty much as 4 and earlier did, even though it's a totally new beast.
I'd be willing to bet a dollar against a donut that if you created a button in a totally new project and used those images, things would work just dandy. Captivate generally caches things like that inside the project and that's why you aren't seeing them update.
Probably the only way you will coax them to work in your existing project will be to use a slight variation of file names for the images. Because they will be different file names, Captivate will think they are entirely different images.
Cheers... Rick

TS3276 I have recently had a problem with one of my hotmail accounts, some sort of virus sending random emails to people in my address book. Hotmail advised me to change my password for that account, which I did. Why won't mail recognise the new password?

I have recently had a problem with one of my hotmail accounts, some sort of virus sending random emails from my address book. Hotmail advised me to delete all contacts and change the password for that account, which I did on my laptop running windows XP. The change was successful and I was able to send and receive emails with no problem. I then had to change the account password on my iPhone 4s, which I did and it too was successful but when I came to change the password on my iMac, running the latest version of Lion it would not recognise the new password. I have tried to remove the account details and re-install but every time I go to add new account my old details are in the box. This is very frustrating as I use my iMac for all my profects and I need to access my email. Please help.

hi guys,
I had already deleted all reference to the hotmail account in question from the keychain access app, I have also tried to delete and re-instal the account details from within mail. The icon in the side bar dissapears but when I go to Add Account, the old account details are in the new account box. I then input my new password but am told that the server does not recognise it. If I access hotmail via google on the iMac I can get into my account with no problems. I am thinking there must be some other form of security system within the mac software that is blocking the new password. This is driving me nuts. I have been trying to resolve this for the last two days. Thank you for your advise anyway.

Why won't CS4 open the CR2 RAW files from my Canon G11?

I am running Snow Leopard V6.2. I have Adobe Design Premium with what I thought were all of the most recent updates loaded but when I tried to open one of the RAW files from my Canon G11 in PS CS4 it did not recognize the file type and it and would not open. Wouldn't CS4 premium update also update PS CS4 with all the most recent files including ACR and the latest definitions?
What version of ACR would have the latest RAW definitions for the G11 and how should it be loaded?

What is the correct way of installing the ACR plugin? Just ru
n the DMG or is there a file that must be placed in
applications?
This is what is written on that page:
To open a DMG file:
Double-click the file. This will open Disk Copy, which mounts the image on your desktop.
Manual installation on Mac:
1. Exit Photoshop CS4 and Adobe Bridge.
2. Open the download file and double-click Setup, and follow the on-screen instructions.
3. Launch Photoshop CS4 or Adobe Bridge.
Is that so difficult?

Can the new pages files be opened elsewhere without converting them in any way?

My pages files were recovered from my laptop after it crashed with help from apple support. Now I can't access them on any of the other systems I have access to. It there anyway to covert them to a different format without having a special program?

Thanks. We want visitors to browse through our historical photos in any of the ways iPhoto will allow them, including slide shows, but also searching for photos by key word and viewing them along with the comments we have entered on that photo.
I was beginning to think iPhoto had no capability to limit users to certain functions.
I wonder if the use of Apple's sharing files function would help. I have read that it is possible to share files with others, and to limit their use to viewing only, but I don't know how to do this.

I don't understand why recently with the new "pages" my computer stops responding. When I go to fix some grammar all of a sudden the little colored circle begins to appear and won't go away I restart my computer.

If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time after you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post any other kind of report — it will be very long and not helpful.

Hi, The options bar shows sample size 101 by 101 Average. That was my problem. When I was troubleshooting in order to try to explain to you what was happening, I noticed that when I sampled my models teeth, it gave me a color a bit lighter than her lipstick as my foreground color in my tool box. That started me thinking in the correct way. I didn't realize that my sample size had somehow gotten switched from point sample to 101 by 101 average. I appreciate the help. Thank you.

How can I re-download the new pages. App Center won't let me. Says it is installed.

I have messed up Pages 5 and now all I have on my Mac is the old pages 4.? When I go to the App Center it tells me that the new Pages is installed. But I have corrupted it somehow and need to download it again. How do I do that when the App Store tells me it is already installed?

Dah veed,
I tried this but when I go to the purschases page, Pages in greyed out and still says "installed." Any other suggestons?
I can't find anywhere where another copy of Pages is installed.

Why are pictures and pages missing from doc created in Pages 09 when I try to open it in the new Pages?

I created a large document earlier this year in Pages 09 ... over 100 pages and it has screen prints, pictures and text boxes ... when I try to open it in the new Pages 5.5.1, all of these pics, text boxes, etc, are missing!!! I can open it in the old Pages, and they are all there, but in the new Pages, half of my document is missing! I want to have it work in the new Pages because what if I upgrade to a new computer ... I will not have access to Pages 09 anymore! Plus, the "Page Layout" option is missing in Pages 5.5.1 - what was Apple thinking with this update? Please help!

Bean doesn't do layout and is no longer being developed.
MsOffice or LibreOffice [free] are alternatives but not at the moment 100% solutions.
MsOffice has most of the features in a clumsier fashion in most cases but is a bit of a kludge on the Mac.
LibreOffice has a rather rough user interface and still lacks Pages '09 features.
Really we are in Limbo until we get something else completely.
For office work, I suggest LibreOffice or NisusWriter. Just so you can still get at it in the future.
I have been warning about this inevitability for years. Hasn't made me popular.

Why do I only get the first page of a 5-page pdf when I attach it in Pages?

I'm trying to add a multi-page pdf to the end of a Pages document so that I can see what hard copy I sent in the post with the letter. However, I can only attach the first page of the pdf and the other pages don't show. I have tried selecting all the pages and choosing Print Selected Page when creating the pdf, (which was suggested in the Snow Leopard help pages) but the same thing still happens. Just the first page appears. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I'm not sure if this should be posted in Snow Leopard or Pages so I'll try here! Thank you.

chris
You can not attach a multi-page .pdf document to Pages.
Just create a folder in which you enclose both your Pages letter and the .pdf.

Why are objects in tables removed when opening a document (created in pages 2009) in the new pages?

I have a problem: Documents I created in Pages 2009, when opened in the new Pages I get "objects in tables were removed".
This makes all my documents useless !
Is there any way to get the objects (images and tables mostly) to load into the tables across all my documents ?

No, there isn't. Use Pages 09 with your old documents and Pages 5.0 for creating new ones. Do you really need Pages 5.0 is the question you need to answer. If not, don't.

The new Pages won't open on an older iMac, though I have loaded Mavericks successfully. It's totally screwed up..how to fix?

I have loaded Mav, then the new Pages, but something's very amiss...have done the same on my laptop and Pages opens just fine...
How to troubleshoot my iMac disaster?

Thanks,
Today I hard-rebooted which apparently got Mavericks performing up to par,
Then on top of the new OS platform ...Pages is behaving as it should, so, Problem Solved,
hope this might be helpful to others...

How can I sort lines of data (alphabetically) in the new pages 5.0?

How can I sort lines of data (alphabetically) in the new pages 5.0?
It was very simple to do in the previou version of pages.

I'm not sure why people are torturing themselves with Pages 5 given the nearly universal outcry on this forum and the incredibly negative reviews elswhere, such as the App Store.
Pages 4.3 should still be in an iWorks folder within your Applications folder. Just use that.
Please remember to tell Apple what we need from them at:

Anyone know how to change the default font for the new pages? Apparently it does not even come up when I search the 'Help' section of Pages. The level of incompetence in this new version seems breathtaking

I cannot find how to change the default font in the new Pages. It does not appear in the Help area when I search for it. I am never sing Helvetica for my standard documents and cannot seem to change it. What am I missing? And why does Pages help not have an easy answer?
dan

You open a blank template and change the font to you liking. Remember to also get all the styles changed with new font. Then Save As Template. Now you have a template with the font you like.
