when I try to import a table from a website into the latest version of Pages, the table format isn't kept but instead it is spaced out over 4 or 5 pages. How can I make Pages keep the table format and not switch it to pure text?

When copying a table from say a webpage or even a RTF file, Pages does not retain its table formatting. Instead it separates the rows and columns and puts them on separate lines.
See it for yourself, try copying one of the tables on this page into Pages [URL]
The only way I can get the table into Pages is to paste into NeoOffice (which retains the correct formating), save the file with the .doc extension then open in Pages.
I have been sent a job application form in pdf and have been asked to fill in the relevant boxes and return electronically. The easy solution would be to print, hand write and then scan. However, I just wanted to know if there is a clever way to convert the application form into a word.doc and then insert text and edit? I have looked at various free downloads however, they don't seem to be able to retain the table format of the original document. Does anyone have experience/knowledge of doing this.

If I insert another TOC in my document, and update the content of that table, pages still updates the first TOC, too, even though the second TOC is in another section.
Can tables in Pages 5.5.1 be set up to fit every labels? I've tried to adjust the margins and the cells to sizes listed on the package, but I can't get them to fit properly. Also, when I try to copy information (return address with three lines of data) from one cell to another to fill in the page, the information ends up with one line each in three different cells. How do I keep it all together?

The file shows up in iPhoto, but when I go to iPhoto movies in iMovie, the file does not show up. What type of formats does iMovie let you import? Perhaps I can't import because its the wrong type of file? If so, is there a (free) way to convert the .MOV file into a file that can be imported into iMovie?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to print a PDF in landscape format with 2 pages per sheet. Which I can do no problem in the print settings of Preview. The problem is controlling which order the sheets print in. As far as I can see, none of the print options actually change anything. I can change the order, select reverse layout, etc etc, and it always prints out the same, incorrect way. What am I doing wrong?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI know how to insert the date and time, but I need it to automatically put it in the format of Month/Date/Year (ie August 3, 2009). When your insert the date and time in Pages, it automatically puts it in the format of Day/Month/Date/Year (ie Monday, August 3, 2009). I know if you right click on it and select "Edit Date and Time" you can adjust the format, but I need it to automatically put it in the format I want (Month/Date/Year) when I select "Insert Date and Time."

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have recently started using Pages in iwork over Office, I like the easy formatting and usability of Pages. But I have to send all these recently create pages doc in a word format to someone and so I did the Save as Word option.When I opened the Word file in Word all the text formatting went all over the place, it looked like it put extra tabs in there and there is a split down the middle of the text like it has put it in two columns.
Is there any way to ensure that when I create my pages document that the formatting is agreeable with word.

I have a 250GB firewire drive. I have a G5 iMac and an Intel iMac. I'd like to make bootable clones (about 60GB each) of each for off site backup, so two logical partitions. As far as I can see, the partition table scheme is determined at the physical drive level. But I need the logical drives to be Apple for the G5 partition and GUID for the Intel partition (please correct me if I am wrong) in order for them to be bootable. Is there any way around this, or do I need two physical drives after all?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've recently switched from Word for Windows to Word for Mac (2008), and I'm having trouble figuring out how to "tab over" text in tables in the Mac version. In the Windows version, Ctrl + TAB works, but I haven't figured out the equivalent command/key combination for the Mac version.
Setting tab stops in a table cell is a breeze, but figuring out how to use these stops has proven to be more of a challenge for me.
When I type a document with a table in it and send it via email to someone, it is jumbled up when they receive it.

I have a Canon Pixma MX700 connected to a PC and am able to print text/word files from my MAC to the printer via the router without any problems. However, whenever I try to print a document containing a table or a graphic, it doesn't print in the right place, and there is often a blue 'echo' of the table or image that also prints. I am currently using a gutenprint driver.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI bought a 320Gb external HDD which was to replace my internal 160Gb drive in my Unibody Macbook.
I used SuperDuper! to copy my original disk on to the new one, then swapped the disks. My 160Gb is no loger working, which is fine, but I want to install a fresh OSX on to the new hard drive. I can use the Disk at the moment but the mac can't boot from it. I need to hold down the option key and select it at startup, I presume because of the format/partition type.
When I try to do a fresh install of OSX, I get an error saying cannot install on this disk because of partition type (GUID Tables).
I'm not allowed to do anything to this disk because I can't 'unmount' it, so, can I run disk utilities from my install DVD? before mounting the disk?
Apple had high hopes of delivering an all-you-can-eat buffet of television shows in the form of a subscriptions service by the time its iPad hits the market next month, but opposition from networks has forced the company to adopt Plan B: a push towards lower pricing for a la carte downloads.
In an updated version of its report on Apple's scrambles to secure last-minute content licensing deals for the iPad, The Wall Street Journal cites people familiar with the matter as saying that electronics maker is now asking that television networks agree to drop the price of their episodes to $0.99, down from $1.99 and $2.99.
The concession on Apple's part comes after the majority balked at a more ambitious attempt by company to court its largest network partners into an all-inclusive subscription service, which would have offered iPad users broad access to the catalogs of many of their favorite programs for a set monthly fee, according to the paper.
Still, Apple's struggling to achieve the networks' approval, even with its pared back strategy. People speaking anonymously to the Journal say the content providers are weary of the strategy, fearing it could ultimately hurt their business and jeopardize "the tens of billions of dollars in subscription fees they are paid by cable and satellite companies for their traditional TV networks."
I write reports and I use office for mac because at work I need to read the reports I write at home with macbook. I use tables on microsoft word that are connected to excel. When I click on them the excel opens to may introduce formulas and text. If I close excel the table I modified on excell lays on word with the rest of the text of the report. My doubt is when I add cells to the table on excel....I can't visualize them on word...

I'm running Snow Leopard on my new Macbook Pro. I've got a 1.5TB External hard drive that I'm trying to figure out how to format in HFS+ with Apple Partition Map. I can figure out how to format in HFS using Disk Utility, however it still does it in GUID format and I do not know how to do it in Apple Partition Map.
Googleing this for hours has lead with all kinds of information on how to go to GUID FROM Apple Partition Map but not the other way around. I know GUID is the new hottness.. but this drive will be used exclusively to connect to my XBOX 360 and it supposedly only reads HFS+ when its formatted with Apple Partition Map. (I have tried it with Mac OS Extended (Journaled) with GUID, and the XBOX does NOT recognize it) I do not want to use Fat 32, (I know that that is the other major option) beacuse it limits file size.
I'm using Macbook Pro(2010, 10.6.6) and a PC with Windows 7. I need to transfer image files from both laptops to an external drive. I formatted the external drive in exFAT and wanted to know if there are any problems that might occur in the future. I already know there is an issue with such programs as Carbon Copy Cloner. I primarily need the drive for backup of the images and not system backups. Do you have any file corruption or other problems formatting in exFAT?
