Shutting off Pages auto numbering on a page?

You have entered List formatting.

Menu > Pages > Preferences > Auto-Correction > uncheck Automatically detect lists

No there is no way of hiding the paragraph symbol that I know of. It does no harm and it is useful to know where your real returns are.

It sounds like you are on Lion which has Auto-Save, so no Pages will always automatically save now.

The only way round that is to install OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard on your Mac and avoid Lion all together. That is what I am doing.

I'm publically posting to a private email fruhulda.

I try and keep them in the forum despite all the private stuff I get.

I spare you most of the handholding of some of the endlessly bewildered though. 🙂

Why are you giving Peter a hard time. He is helping me out!

I wouldn't consider it 'giving Peter a hard time', R.J. Fruhulda sees one side of a conversation that you've taken ex community and Peter has replied to in this thread. She's puzzled by a comment that's a non-sequitor with respect to the discussion here, and asks Peter if he's posted to the wrong thread.

Looks like if anyone should be given a hard time on this it's R.J. Johnson, who took the conversation out of the community in the first place.

Conversations do go ex-forum at times, but the usual cause is a complex issue that, dealt with in the forum, would generate a many-page thread. Those tend to be dealt with one-to-one, then summarized in the forum.

R.J.,

Hit Return again and the number will disappear from the blank line after the list.

This posting doesn't seem to belong here, Peter?

OK! 🙂

Oh, was this addressed to me? I asked a question and got an answer.

Thanks Barry, explaining this to the OP!
