About:blank is an application that blocks websites in Safari. You specify the websites that you want to block on your Mac or iOS device, and the rules will be synchronized across all your other devices. The rules are based on regular expressions, which allows for fine control over a blocked URL.

It's probably an invisible character like a page- or section-break. Wifispoof 3 3 1 – change your wifi mac address. Click the 'show invisibles' button (the paragraph mark) and you may see it (and be able to select it easily), then delete it.

Two things in this world aren't overrated: MacOSX and Lemon Meringue Pie.
Depending on how you have your fn keys set in System Preferences, you may have to also hold the fn key
Hey, can I submit this as a hint? :-)
Better yet, drop Word altogether and use free (libre) Unix-based text processors TeX (or LaTeX) or groff. There's a learning curve, but they produce outstanding output—far, far better than Word. If the Terminal isn't for you, Pages is great and cheaper than Word. I simply don't abide Microsoft anymore.
Doesn't putting the cursor as far to the end as you want and pressing the (forward) Delete key a couple times do the same thing? (If you don't have one, it's Function+Delete, where 'delete' is the backwards delete key that corresponds to 'Backspace' on a PC keyboard.)
Slightly better: see if it's a hidden character.
On the rocks (☆goldstarstickrs☆) mac os. Even better: use LaTeX instead. :)
I've also found that the pagination options for the last paragraph can affect this behavior. You can change it from 'Paragraph…', Pagination (or something like that; at least that's how it is in Word 2004).
This doesn't work at all, at least in Word 2008. Interestingly enough, QuickLook shows only one page while Word itself shows two (the second being blank).

Does anyone know if this works in Pages? I gave up on word a while ago because it is too slow on a mac.
I have found a magnificent replacement to MS Word in Nisus Writer. Far easier to use, and no annoying idiosyncrasies such as a difficult to remove blank last page!
The more advanced version Nisus Writer Pro has real power-user stuff: table of contents, indexing, cross references and search/replace with styles, etc, etc. It even has GREP searching! And Nisus does things the way you want, instead of making up its own mind and ignoring you!
Now I only use MS Word very occasionally and even that is too often!
Check it out, you'll be glad you did.
Hello, I did what was recommended at the beginning of this thread but it deleted my headers on the other pages.I guess this a different question but headers and footers drive me insane. If the document has already been created and I added a Break Page, can I unlink the pages after the fact and not create havoc?
Thank you very much!

World Of Blanks Mac Os X
Reinstall macOS
Select Reinstall macOS from the utilities window in macOS Recovery, then click Continue and follow the onscreen instructions.
Follow these guidelines during installation:
History Of Mac Os
- If the installer asks to unlock your disk, enter the password you use to log in to your Mac.
- If the installer doesn't see your disk, or it says that it can't install on your computer or volume, you might need to erase your disk first.
- If the installer offers you the choice between installing on Macintosh HD or Macintosh HD - Data, choose Macintosh HD.
- Allow installation to complete without putting your Mac to sleep or closing its lid. Your Mac might restart and show a progress bar several times, and the screen might be empty for minutes at a time.
After installation is complete, your Mac might restart to a setup assistant. If you're selling, trading in, or giving away your Mac, press Command-Q to quit the assistant without completing setup. Then click Shut Down. When the new owner starts up the Mac, they can use their own information to complete setup.
Other macOS installation options
When you install macOS from Recovery, you get the current version of the most recently installed macOS, with some exceptions:
- On an Intel-based Mac: If you use Shift-Option-Command-R during startup, you're offered the macOS that came with your Mac, or the closest version still available. If you use Option-Command-R during startup, in most cases you're offered the latest macOS that is compatible with your Mac. Otherwise you're offered the macOS that came with your Mac, or the closest version still available.
- If the Mac logic board was just replaced, you may be offered only the latest macOS that is compatible with your Mac. If you just erased your entire startup disk, you may be offered only the macOS that came with your Mac, or the closest version still available.
You can also use these methods to install macOS, if the macOS is compatible with your Mac:
- Use the App Store to download and install the latest macOS.
- Use the App Store or a web browser to download and install an earlier macOS.
- Use a USB flash drive or other secondary volume to create a bootable installer.
