I'm very disappointed in your product. You frustrate me EVERY day. When I had Publisher, all I had to do was go to the menu, click on Insert - Page and voila! A new page appeared! Why can't I do that here??? Can you or someone PLEASE just show me how to add a page in Pages?!
MacBook Pro, iOS 8.3
Once you scroll past the end of a page, a second page auto appears. Hope I haven't misunderstood in some way.
If you selected a word document, highlight Sections at the top and you will get a choice for a text page or a blank. if you selected a blank document, it'll show Pages - choose text or a blank:
I'm creating my own labels, so no - it doesn't just go to the next page! I'm not that dumb, although with this machine I feel like it most days. 🙂
This doesn't look anything at all like my interface! See what I mean about being frustrated?!?
The last thing I wanted to imply was that you may be dumb; indeed I did say I hope I haven't misunderstood; But you made no mention of creating labels.
1. Apple is not here. This is a user to user forum. We are all users like yourself. This is not our product.
2. To add a page, like in any other word processor, like Microsoft Word, you hit the enter key several times until you move to another page. This is standard behavior for word processors.
Pages on iCloud is not like Publisher, or even like Pages on a Mac, its more like Microsoft Word in that respect.
3. When using a new Product, its best not to expect it to work like a previous one, but start by understanding how it operates, and what is different..
Oh, but you don't understand - I AM dumb! Or at least this POS makes me feel like I am. Why doesn't anyone program for idiots?! My own husband is a programmer and I keep asking him why things can't be made easier. They used to be easy! You'd think that as we go along, things would be made even easier for people like me! :/
But I AM on a Mac! I'm not in the cloud at all.
I'm making custom labels. At the end of the page, you'd think that if I'm copying and pasting and I'm at the end of the page, it would make me a new page. Or at the very least, where it says "Insert" at the top of the page, there would be a way I could just click on something that says "Page" and that would be that! That's what I used to do in Publisher! I don't understand why this is so difficult! And why, if Mac suggested I go here, are they not a part of the solution?!?!
Then why did you post in the iWork for iCloud forum? That implies you are using Pages for iCloud. Not Pages on your Mac.
We still don't know exactly what you are using.
The first thing to do when trying to get help, is to get all the details of your issue correct. Otherwise you get answers that may not apply at all.
Since you have not told us, what version of Pages are you using, if you indeed are using Pages.
Click on the Pages name on the top bar of your Mac, and then on About Pages.
If it does not say Pages at the top, then what does it say exactly?
I will request this thread be moved to the Pages for Mac Forum, instead of iWorks for iCloud.
So what version of Pages are you using? Those details are important - your profile shows iWork beta. If it is the latest (v. 5.x with Mac OS Yosemite), then you can look at these instructions:
If you look at the top tool bar in Pages, you will see help - choose that and simply enter "add blank page" in the search field. You should get the above instructions.
Can someone PLEASE just show me how to add a page in Pages?! Why is this so difficult???
