Excel on imac - have trashed/deleted workbooks via finer but the frozen icon still appears on excel homepage.  Can't get it off the page even though information comes up that it is in trash, and trash has been emptied.  Grandma is screaming!

Excel on imac.  Have deleted/trashed workbooks from Finder and they have disappeared from the finder listing but the frozen icon remains on the Excel Workbook Gallery Under my Recent Workbooks.  Clicking on the empty icon which is still titled shows that they are in trash but I can't get rid of the icon which is a waste of space as well as annoying.  Help - Grandma is screaming!

  • I have a G4 Quicksilver that no longer works, but the hd may still be good. How can I get files off the G4 hd and onto my new iMac?

    I have a G4 Quicksilver 2001 that no longer works, but the hd may still be good. How can I get files off the G4 hd and onto my new late 2013 iMac?

    Also, how do I boot the G4 into FireWire Target Disk mode?
    First, the G4 must be able to start to use FWTDM. If it can start, hold the t key at boot until you get a "screensaver pattern" that looks like this:
    If the G4 is attached via a FireWire cable to a newer Mac with a FireWire port, the G4's hard drive will appear on the other Mac's desktop just as if it were any external drive. A USB cable won't work for FWTDM.
    Just wondering if the drive in my G4, which I believe may be an ATA drive will also work in an enclosure for a SATA drive?
    No. ATA (actually "PATA" or "IDE") and SATA are different interfaces. PATA external enclosures are now very hard to find. You best and least expensive option is the adaptor that BDAqua linked. One of its connectors is for PATA drives.

  • I have two excel files I cannot open or delete from my desktop.  One is titled 6ACAD200 and the other file is titled 8D73A700.  How can I get these off of my computer?

    From the names I'd guess they are temporary files. If excel is running, quit and try again. If they still won't move or delete reboot. If they still won't move or delete...kill a chicken at midnight under an oak tree?

  • My iPad is stuck with a small blue screen saying iCloud Backup, this iPad hasn't been backed up in 4 weeks.Backups blah blah- Click OK. I can't get it off the screen and I can't use the iPad because of it. Can anyone out there help?

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

  • I deleted my ibooks author file but the preview is still available on my ipad, can I get the ibook back into ibooks author to continue to edit?

    I deleted my ibooks author file but the preview is still available on my ipad, can I get the ibook back into ibooks author to continue to edit? I have not published anything, just previewed on my ipad but the file seems to be deleted from my imac which is what I was using ibooks author on. Any help is welcome!

    It's not a 'process' at all.
    If it was easy/straightforward, people would be turning store versions into iBA versions left/right and all **** would break loose. It's not and that's a good thing, sorry
    Work up from whatever version you have.
    Any work you value should be backed up....period. That backup should be used and tested regularly. Consider this a lesson learned, perhaps. Good luck in the future.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Hold Sleep and Home buttons for 10 seconds until your device restarts, so you will be able to use it again.
    You need at least 50 MB of free space to back up onto iCloud. Open Settings > General > Usage, and remove applications that you do not need

  • I have just recently installed ios6 to my iPad 3 an iPhone 4 my iPhone works fine but my iPad is not working at all I can not get a response from it, it seemed to download an then install but did not reset and turn on and will not turn on HELP!! Withdrawa

    I have just recently installed ios6 to my iPad 3 an iPhone 4 my iPhone works fine but my iPad is not working at all I can not get a response from it, it seemed to download an then install but did not reset and turn on and will not turn on HELP!! Withdrawal or what!! Lol

    Hi there,
    Firstly, try a hard reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until the Apple logo appears.
    If this doesn't work, try restoring your device. Put it in recovery mode if iTunes doesn't recognise it, and restore it from there. I have linked to instructions below.

    Let me know if this helps,

  • I keep getting tabs opening and pop ups that I don't want AND it has been running very slow with the new upgrade

    Mozilla seems to have done a recent "upgrade" and it has slowed my computer down, created viruses and I continue to get pop ups that last a mile long. I am not sure what has been done, but, I am ready to leave Mozilla.

    Do a malware check with some malware scan programs. You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

  • How can I get music off the ipod and into my library?

    I can't get the music off my ipod into my library... arg why won't it let me?

    You can't sync or drag your non iTMS music back directly from an iPod to iTunes, the transfer of music is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. As iTunes 7 is just out some of these may not work with it yet though I haven't experienced any problems with the Mac software I use.
    YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
    iGadget Windows Only
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
    iPod Access Mac and Windows Versions
    PodUtil Mac and Windows Versions
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
    PodPlayer Windows Only
    There is a new function in iTunes 7 under File, "Transfer Purchases from iPod" which transfers iTMS purchases. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer

  • I fully downloaded an audiobook on my iPad and it started working fine but then it stopped reading my book. How can I get it to work again?

    I downloaded an audiobook and it started working but then it stopped. Is there anyway I can redownload my audiobook so that it starts working completely?

    This is a ridiculous policy and it interferes with how most people would listen to an audio book since they are quite lengthy. I'm traveling, so I throw the audio book on using my iPad and I get 60% of the way through the book on my trip. I come home, I want to listen to the rest of it via iTunes on my stereo through AirPlay. And this can't be done?
    This is the last audiobook I buy from iTunes until they *fix* this... and it IS something that requires fixing whether that means negotiating more aggressively with the audiobook providers or changing something at the software layer. It completely ruins many peoples' experience!
    It's funny because a friend of mine suggested buying it, then downloading it from a torrent just so I could use the book the way I wanted to use the book. Is it not sad that to create a positive overall user experience you have to resort to downloading something off a torrent?
    iTunes is supposed to make things easy and accessible. I agree with jamusick's posting -- this isn't the vision Steven Jobs had for the future. This is a road block on the way there.

  • How can I get rid of this number even though all apps are updated and installed?

    That doesn't mean that you have updates.
    Not sure how that app works, - normally means you have a notification for that app - what happen when you go into the app?
    If you had update it would be a red number for the app store icon

  • I have 8 charges on my debit card within a matter of 30 minutes for the same amount.  Contacted my bank but i need a letter from itunes.  How can i get this for the bank to reverse charges since it's debit card?

    I have 8 charges on my debit card within a matter of 30 minutes for the same amount.   I notified my bank but the bank is asking for itunes to send them a fax.  How can i get this?

    If possible, I suggest changing to a credit card.
    1) There is a max $50 in stolen dollars.
    2) It is easy to dispute a charge.  You call the credit card company. Complain.  They call the retailer & refund you the money.

  • When I try to go to the app store, I have a popup for a game that won't go away.  I can't get it off the screen. Suggestions?

    When I try to go to the app store, I have a popup for a free game that won't go away.  I can't get into the app store.

    This happened to me twice lately.  I finally got around it by double tapping the home key to go back to the homepage finding the app store that was running and flicked  it up to get rid of it.
    When I went back to the App Store the Popup was gone.
