Hello everyone, I seriously hope I’m wrong about this, but I can’t find the merge fields anywhere in the new Pages. This makes it very complicated, if not impossible, to use Pages for mail shots and invoices. Another problem I’ve found is the lack of hotkeys for setting styles. Where have they

Thanks, Daniel, I’ll report this as a problem. This is going to prevent my husband from upgrading to Mavericks as he relies on the merge fields for invoicing. How very short-sighted of Apple to do this. They seem to have made the iWork suite as near to the IOS version as possible. A very bad ide

The idea of using Pop on your iPhone and Mac is so all mail is downloaded locally and not managed on the server. You re-configure your mail account in settings on the iPhone and System Preferences on the mac. There is also an accounts option in Mail itself so you can do it there. E-mail Facebo
