Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
okay, here's a puzzler. I have a document that I made changes in, sent it to a reviewer who also made changes. Got it back and used the Next button on the Reviews place wtf ever it is now to go through the reviewer's changes and, while my changes are still visible, I can't use the Next or Previous buttons to get to them. Which is a problem! It's a 600+ page document with changes throughout and I'm just supposed to look through the pages for changes now? I can't figure this one out at all.
(Thank you all for listening to my whining)
ETA NEVERMIND! I figured it out. User error.
Change is hard! (TM)
headers and footers are under Insert.
If you're working in Print Layout, once you have headers/footers, you can just double-click on them to edit.
and to insert a page break you go to layout, when they all used to be grouped under insert.
On mine, you can insert a page break from the Insert tab.
lisah,
After working with Word 2007 for 4 months, I said "fuck it" and I moved over to a Mac. I am someone who found it so objectionable that I never adapted. I hope you find it easier than I did.
I'm trying to copy a windows disk onto a mac. I was using the help button to figure out how to copy and looked up duplicate, and it and instead of explaining the duplicate function to me, it started it. It the duplicate function just an extended copy or will it do something I hate? If I need to, how do I stop it?
On mine, you can insert a page break from the Insert tab.
Yeah, but not a section break. Random.
For a regular page break, can't you just hit control-enter?
Wow, so I really shouldn't migrate, huh? We are change averse.
Typo Boy, what exactly are you trying to copy? Are you just copying the contents to a hard drive?
The easiest way to do that is to click on the disk, hold down "option" and drag it to a folder or the hard drive.
It will then copy the entire contents to a folder on the hard drive with the name of the disc.
I'm trying to copy an entire windows hard drive from a dead computer (Now successfully mounted as an external hard drive on the Mac) into a folder on the MAC. When I drag and drop it creates a pointer rather than making a real copy. The "duplicate" eventually generated an error and left a garbage folder which I deleted and emptied the trash. All I want to do is copy the windows hard drive onto a folder on the mac. But I want a real folder, so I can disconnect the windows hard drive and still have the files.
Can you trying copying a folder on the external hard drive to the mac?
