Pages: inability to select text across page boundaries fixed

2015-10-20 Thread Adrienne Chalmers
Guys Yes, glad this has been changed. I’m not surprised it still doesn’t work if you have inserted a page break. This is what we used to call in the olden days a hard return. Now I get to brag that I got my first Mac with Outspoken in 1991:) Best Adrienne -- You received this message becau

Hello, Although Pages09 works with newer versions of Mac OS, the merge feature does not work because the Address Book application it calls on is now Contacts and does not use the same routines. I spent years as a systems programmer so in this case, I know what I’m talking about. Cheers, Anne

If you install iwork 09 you will not only have that version of pages but you can also have the newer version on the same mac. I am pretty sure all features are in the newest version of pages but i will call back and ask about these if you like? On 10/20/2015 12:27 AM, Anne Robertson wrote: He

Hello, Whoever you spoke to at Apple doesn’t know what they’re talking about. One crucial feature that’s missing is merge fields, the ability to import contact information from Contacts. This is one thing that is preventing my husband from upgrading from Mountain Lion and iWork09 as he depends

Wow, for 19 years. Probably software is never bug free. But I’d wish Apple responded quicker to remove found bugs. But anyway, I love my Macs. :-) All the best Jürgen > Am 19.10.2015 um 17:31 schrieb Anne Robertson : > > Hello Jürgen, > > Good catch! You’re absolutely right. So the key bindings

Hello Jürgen, Good catch! You’re absolutely right. So the key bindings thing isn’t wasted after all. I was amused to read on a forum somewhere that someone was reminiscing about the days when Apple software was bug-free. I think that time was in that person’s dreams. I certainly don’t remember

Yesterday, I 'discovered that VOPage Down moves forward by pages through a document, and VO-Page Up moves backward a page at a time. I don't know if this has always been the case, or if this command was added with the latest update to pages. Just thought I'd throw it out there for discussion. S
