Did you add content to all the pages in the notebook ?

or are you creating a notebook in Glade that you want
to populate the pages at runtime ?

If the latter, then you should at least add some container
to the notebook pages in Glade (i.e. just add them inline
to the gray placeholder widgets), then get those pages
by name and add your dynamic widgets to those containers.
