I am having trouble with when I am inserting a photo into my Pages document it ends up on lots of pages randomly? what have I done wrong I am a new user of pages and just finding my way.
I am doing a family history so will be inserting phots along the way? At first it was ok but I've done something that had botched it up and the above is happening.

My iMac is my first Apple computer. I actually needed some additional more basic things - I didn't know that the yellow pen on the bottom bar is Pages. You undid something but didn't show how you did that. I'm assuming that it was a keyboard command since I didn't see your mouse move to something...

Hi Jason, I am struggling with icloud. I have some documents on my ipad and some on icloud. It greys out the documents and I don’t know how to open them. I want to save everything on my iPad but need to save the icloud ones first then remove pages from my icloud backup. I hope this makes sense. Could you or do you have a video on saving and finding documents.

[dalecleveland]

so after I create a document how do I save it and where does it save it to?

I used WordPerfect for a long time but was forced to move over to Word.
Pages looks daunting, I don’t understand it. What does it do that Word doesn’t? Nowadays I only type letters, no manuals or anything complex

Screen was too dark. Could see what you were doing

What version is this? Mine is 14.1. Please don’t think everyone already knows it all. I only wanted basics for a resume. Word processors have been around for a long time so I do have some knowledge. You definitely talk too fast but I know how to slow you down. My biggest issue is that your view is WAY TOO SMALL! Bummer. But thanks anyway.

Hated the landscape image behind the tutorial

So I wanted paragraph indents. Your text had no paragraphs. Frustrating video.

For the past 2+ years Pages worked just fine on my Dell Laptop with W10. Last week it stopped. It opens, I can see the document but then I get the pop up telling me that there’s a problem. Today apple told me it’s all Windows fault. If it worked this long that tells me there is a way. Come on tech gurus help us out here. To have such an elegant and useful program as Pages be a stand alone tool is short sided and assumes Apple is the only player in this game. It’s worked for 2+ years… someone can figure that out.
