Editing a footnote.
Previously this question was asked:
I think I'm going crazy. All I want to do is edit footnotes in a document in Pages on my new Mac Pro. There simply doesn't seem to be any way to access, open or change the footnote once its been entered. The numbering in the body-text is also wierd. I'm stunned that I even have to search for how to do this most basic, common scholarly writing operation

An answer was given to click the footnote three times then click again.
Apart from being a very strange approach for an apple product, it doesn't seem to work.
If there's an answer to this problem I'd like to know how to do this.
This is, as the previous questioner said, a horrible, inexcusable oversight.
Apparently if you have a typo, or need to change the text of the footnote in some way, you have to delete it and start over. Fine if its a two word footnote. Not so fine if its more complicated than that.
