Can't seem to be able to open a saved numbers file. Any ideas why?

Hi everyone!
I have my budget in numbers. Today I can't open one of the spreadsheets. I have no idea what happened since I work on these every day and have never had issues. And there's no help from Numbers either, it just says the file cannot be opened.
Any ideas? I would really appreciate any tips or tricks you have to get me to open this.
Thx

May you give details ?
Which precise operating system ? At this time we may just assume that you are running OSX and it's not sure because quite everyday we see question related to Numbers for iOS.
Which precise version of Numbers ?
If you are asking about Numbers for OSX, I'm always puzzled by this kind of qiuestion.
The basic rule when we work on important dats on a computer is to keep several consecutive versions and to never save a file upon the one which we just opened.
If you break this rule, you may be sure that one day, you will open a file, make changes and corrupt the file during the save process.
In such case, the datas are lost.
If you run under Lion, you may go to :
Versions as a recovery tool
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3303794
You would get two scripts allowing you to extract a version from the datas stored by the system in a hidden folder.

HT204053 I've recently changed my email address and my apple ID but sometimes I'm still prompted to use my old apple ID and password which I don't use anymore. I can't seem to be able to delete my old Apple Id, any suggestions?

Please follow these steps in order to get it working properly again.
Please change your Apple ID back to your old email address (that you used as Apple ID before) here:http://appleid.apple.com
Then go to all your devices - iPhones, iPads, Mac etc. - ("Settings > iCloud") and delete your iCloud account from this devices (+ turn off Find My iPhone, but I guess it will ask you that anyway)
After that go back to http://appleid.apple.com sign in again, and now change your Apple ID again to your new email address.
Finally, set up your iCloud account on all your devices again.
Now, everything should working properly again.

I can't publish to iWeb, it doesn't seem to be able to login to my icloud account. any ideas?

I've been trying to publish a site on iweb. It seems that iweb is unable to sign in to my icloud account. I push the publish to mobile me tab, push the sign into your account tab,( already a member). I get the barbers pole for 30 seconds or so, and then, nothing happens. Any ideas anyone?

MobileMe closed in July last year.
iCloud does not offer webhosting.
You have to find a webhost.
It's been discussed for the past 2 years in this forum, the MMe forum and all over the planet.
Browse this forum.
In short :
Find a webhoster.
And since you use iWeb 08, publish to a folder and use an FTP app to put the files on the server.
Oh, and look to the right. I see these topics :

I can't seem to be able to open Adobe Premiere Pro after downloading it and saying it's in use.

I've downloaded Adobe Premiere Pro trial twice to see if the second time would work since the first didn't seem to. When I downloaded it twice, it says I was downloading the Adobe Premiere Pro family package and after downloading it, it said that the program was ready for use. I went to my start menu and search the program and all I got was the adobe premiere pro cs6 files and the picture of the purple cd and the set up and etc. Can someone please help me?
PS: I had downloaded it from the adobe website not from adobe creative cloud.

New Hard Drive, Mac partition cloned and boots fine, but I can't seem to get my BOOTCAMP (windows) partition to boot! Any ideas?

Hello all!
I got a new hard drive for my Mac Book Pro and an enclosure so I could clone the old partitions on to the new drive.
So I...
Put the new hard drive in the enclosure.
Booted up off an install disk and ran disk utility.
Copied the Mac and Bootcamp partitions over to the new drive that was connected VIA USB.
Turned off the computer, took the old hard drive out and put it in the enclosure.
Put the new hard drive in the Mac Book Pro.
Booted into Mac OSX with no problem.
When I rebooted held down the option key to boot into the windows side, it didn't show up as an option.
When I went back into the Mac side, I loaded Disk Utility and saw that I had the Mac partition, the BOOTCAMP partition, and a bunch of unallocated space. When I went into the System Preferences and set the target boot drive to the BOOTCAMP partition and restarted, I got some crazy error about there not being any bootable info on it.
That's where I am at. I have found other posts with people who are having the same problem, but I have yet to find a solution that doesn't involve me buying some 3rd party software. I know it has something to do with (what is called in Microsoft world) the Master Boot Record, but I don't know how to modify that to reflect that the BOOTCAMP partition is a bootable logical drive. I remember in MS DOS land there was some command line FDSK /something command that you would run (I think it was /MBR) to reset the MBR. To me though, all of these terms are shadowy figures in the Ether.
What do I do???

p.s. I read somewhere to boot off the windows 7 disk and run the system repair tools. I tried that and no change.

I got it. It CAN be done. At least on 10.6
How I made it happen (for free) on Snow Leopard:
1) partition, dupe etc all that jazz that you know. Make the mac side work, which it seems we've all been able to do no issues. I used SuperDuper! It worked just fine. (Had it on a disk. I assume you could use any other free way of doing this.)
2) New hard drive running, I used bootcamp assistant to partition the new drive for a new Bootcamp. I don't know if it's necessary to make the new partition this way for some reason, but it's what the process ultimately included, so maybe try without, but it worked with.
3) Natively running original drive on the windows side. Used DirveImage XML to clone windows partition onto new drive connected externally.
4) Back on new hard drive running natively. (Sorry for all the switching.) You'll note that the new Bootcamp partition is NOT bootable at this point. It won't come up in the usual 'alt on startup' boot menu.
Download rEFInd and install on mac side. Technically this is freeware or w/e, but for the love of god, throw money at this man. He totally deserves it.
5) Restarting the computer, rEFInd's boot manager finally recognizes windows. But you'll find windows is a little messed up and still won't quite boot. Get out your Windows CD and pop it in. Do the 'alt boot' thing. Your boot menu options are now "EFI Manager," "Bootcamp," and "Windows Disk." Or some such. Holy Crap! It recognizes Windows!
6) Boot to the CD and tell it to repair the windows volume. It will. My computer also had to do a disk check next time I booted to Windows, which took for-stupid-ever, but eventually worked. (I went to bed in between.)
7) Everything is running smoothly. Plus, you get the rEFInd boot manager, which is also great.

Feel free to share/copy&paste this solution as you see useful. Cheers!

Firefox will not open on my laptop computer,It is my designated server but will not open???? Any ides why?

Firefox will not open on my lap top

No, nothing at all happens. Once clicked the 'circle' that suggest it is loading appears (if that makes sense) but no, nothing
Many thanks.
Can you check something for me please?
Restart your PC. after the PC restarts, bring up your Task manager, and go to the "Processes" tab. Click "Image name" to sort the processes alphabetically.
Now try to launch iTunes.
Does an itunes.exe process appear? If so, does it vanish after a second or so, or does it persist in the Processes tab (even though iTunes itself never shows up)?

Go to the main Library folder and look for a folder called Application Support / Microsoft.
There are a few folders in there, and you may have to do some digging. In one of them (mine is called MAU2.0), there should be a file called Microsoft Autoupdate. Open it.
It looks like this:
check the button for manual updates.
That should let you open the apps without triggering an automatic update.

Photoshop will not open, just continually loads. Any ideas why?

When I open photoshop it opens to the workspace but then a white box comes up and the program becomes non responsive and continually loads. Anybody else experienced this?

Try holding down Command - Option - Shift [Mac] or Control - Alt - Shift [Windows] while you are launching Photoshop. Answer "yes" as to deleting the preferences file. That will restore the default settings and, hopefully, fix this.

I can't seem to be able to download apps with IOS 8. I have been able to with other IOS 7 and IOS 6. Any suggestions?

I Can't seem to be able to download (or update) any apps on IOS 8.0, and I have been able to download apps on IOS 7 and IOS 6. I have 5.2 GB of available space on my iPad (4th generation) and I have only used 7.1 GB on my 16GB ipad. I have a full two bars of Internet. Again I have been able to download things with two bars in the past using IOS 7 and IOS 6. Any suggestions would be helpful. =3 Sorry for the incorrect spelling

You might try just waiting. There are millions of people activating their iPhones today and people still trying to get iOS8, so the servers are swamped. I'd give it a couple of days and if it still doesn't work then try some troubleshooting.

Before I buy "numbers" can anyuser tell me if I'll able 2 open password protected excel files in 4S?

Before I buy "numbers" can anyuser advise me from their experiences if I'll be able to open password protected excel files in iphone 4S?

I haven't tried opening any password-protected Office files in Numbers or Pages on my iOS device, but I doubt that it can be done. Neither Numbers or Pages for the Mac can open them so it is extremely unlikely.

Where can I go to get OS X Lion. I paid for it and now I can't seem to be able to download it anywhere.

I purchased OS X Lion. It worked. I bought and installed OS X Mountain Lion. It doens't work. Its slow. And is getting slower. Takes for ever to boot up and the problems just keep coming. I have to repair permissions almost daily because Mail and Safari lock up and bounce and bounce and bounce. Have to force quit. Can't relaunch the system because everything disappears - icons, screen, everything. Sometimes I even have to just push the power button to get the thing to restart.
I'm tired of this. I want Lion back but I can't seem to be able to download it off of the App store when I purchased it there. And funny, its on'ly one version back. You should be able to get it without having to jump through hoops.
I hate Microsoft and I'd hate to have to move in that direction but I'm tired of the headaches I'm getting with ML. Its just not worth it.

HI Pete.
I have a 27" iMac. (mid 2010).
2.93 GHz Intel Core i7
It has 12 GB of memory with the ATI Radeon HD graphics card.
And at present I'm updated on up OS X 10.8.3. And this is the basic minimal system. I have not put any of my software on except for my email and Safari. I loaded my bookmarks and such. Other than that. Nothing else.
I've updated everything but iTunes. Really don't like the new iTunes so I haven't updated it to 11.02.
I don't seem to have issues with the memory. I ran them through Tech Tool Pro and they passed. Same with the graphics card.
This primarily seems like a software issue. OS X Lion worked great. I updated to OS X 10.8 on my MacBook Pro when Mountain Lion came out and I've had no issues on it. Runs fast and the issues I have are all on my iMac. I updated to 10.8 on my iMac in late January. Decided that enough time had passed that any major bugs would of been worked out by then and since my MacBook had no problems I figured Ok.
Since my problems started, I've read about sleep problems but hadn't really noticed them until the last couple of weeks. My iMac does not wake up but only about 50% of the time now. Even worse since I reinstalled the OS.
I'm just wanting to go back to Lion. Seemed to run faster. Software issues were minimal. And I didn't have to run diagostic software on a daily basis to get my computer to just start up.

I created an album and have been showing it presentation style, ken burns effects etc. Now every time I try to re-run it it starts from the end, last picture first! Can't seem to be able to reverse it. Any clue anyone?

I created an album and have been showing it presentation style, ken burns effects etc. Now every time I try to re-run it it starts from the end, last picture first! Can't seem to be able to reverse it. Any clue anyone?

First try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
or with Lion, Mt. Lion or Mavericks delete the contents the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto, reset iPhoto's preferences and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If you're running Mavericks, 10.9, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.
Next, if necessary, continue with the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
