   Can anybody tell me how to make the featured image work for pages? At first I added it by clicking on the button on the Edit Page, but since that didn't make a difference I used the Add Media > Set Featured Image. That too did not replace the header image.

   Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

   Featured images don't work on pages in twenty twelve

   see http://wordpress.org/support/topic/2012-featured-image-not-showing-in-body-of-page-or-post?replies=14#post-3579429

   There is a bug in the twenty twelve theme which allows you to think you can add a featured image to a page but you can't.

   OK - thanks a bunch, tomontoast. I know I cannot expect all features of previous theme versions to work on newer ones, but when the option is there, which it is, then I expected the same result. I liked the Featured Image option for pages and hope, the bug in 2012 can be fixed soon.
   Will check out your link.
