Question

Items duplicating on individual pages in in Design

I'm new to In Design, but not to Adobe. I created a spread of two parent pages. I then applied them to a couple of two page spreads. With page 2 highlighted I added something to the page. When I go to page 4 the item is there too. If I delete it from page 4 it also  disappears from page 2. It does not show up on the parent page.

 

Any ideas?

Are you dead certain you weren't working on the Parent page? That's the only explanation I can think of that makes sense.

It's not highlighted in blue, and when I double click on the parent page
icon it highlights and the item isn't there. I'm stumped. I can send
screenshots later.
