If the "it" refers to a compressed (zipped) spreadsheet that you downloaded, the ".ods" extension is used by LibreOffice and probably OpenOffice (which are free versions of MS Office) for spreadsheets, which would suggest that wherever you're getting that "Excel" file from has switched to one of those programs. I've tried opening an .ods file from LibreOffice using MS Office 2013 for Windows and it does open though with a warning that some things have been changed. I don't know if Office for Mac can normally open .ods files. But if your need is to just open .ods files, take a look at LibreOffice.

    YOu can try resetting your network or a reboot.  To reboot hold down the home/power button together until you see the apple logo and then release.  Wait for the phone to boot back up,  you won't lose any data.

    I own an iPod Classic.  In iTunes, some podcast videos cant be played on teh iPod, so I set it to convert the video to the right format for the iPod.  It used to work perfectly, but now for some reason, it doesnt convert properly!  When I play the video, it is just a white screen, but the sound can be heard.  Can anyone help??????

    Your source video file is probably muxed.
    Neither QT Pro or iTunes has the ability to successfully encode a muxed video file with audio. You'll end up with video and no audio.
    See: iPod plays video but not audio of some exported files.
    You'll need to use some other third-party software to do the conversion. There's a handful of software available. Just search the forums and you'll find many titles mentioned.
    Try MPEG Streamclip.

  • Reader will not read my pdf files. after an automatic update the pdf files are not accessable.

    adobe automatic update to XI caused the reader of my pdf files to stop working. The reader tries to open -- the adobe reader window opens for a few seconds, nothing in the window is activated -- then the window automatically closes.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled previous versions that used to work but the reader 9 and X now do the same thing. open, unactivated window after a few seconds the program then shuts down.
    I cannot open and read any pdf file on this computer.
    There are no error messages and everything seems normal. The program does not work properly.
    I have ran the windows diagnostic tools to no avail.
    This computer operates windows 7

    See if you can open the EULA.exe file in the folder that contains the install of Reader or Acrobat.

  • Why are some songs from YouTube MP3 not syncing now? It used to work perfectly. Is this because of the update?

    I've been using a website to sync music and videos straight from YouTube to my computer and importing them into iTunes (which I know isn't good, but I like some music that is hard to find) and it has worked just fine up until now. I just updated both my iTunes and iPhone operating systems so they are just fine but I was wondering if the update was the problem. Can anyone help or has anyone else experienced these issues?

    Hi hosoriol,
    You can refer an excel as an external table first using the steps below and then you can start reading from it.
    If you want to update the excel file then create an view and create instead of triggers for it.
    Steps
    h3. 1.[Create an external table for the excel file |http://www.adp-gmbh.ch/ora/misc/ext_table.html|Click here to view detailed description]
    h4. 1. Create a directory in Oracle where you have kept the xls file
    create or replace directory ext_dir as '/home/rene/ext_dir';h4. 2. grant read, write on directory ext_dir to scott;
    h4. 3. creating the external table
    create table ext_table_csv (
                                                i   Number,
                                                n   Varchar2(20),
                                                m   Varchar2(20)
                     organization external (
                                                     type   oracle_loader
                                                     default directory ext_dir
                                                    access parameters (
                                                                                 records delimited  by newline

                                                   location ('file.csv')
                     reject limit unlimited;

  • I converted from a PC to a Mac Mini.  I have my PC documents backed up on a DVD disk.  I have an external DVD drive connected to the Mac Mini.  I want to open them up and save them to the Mac, BUT....when I put the DVD disk in the Mac is NOT reading it!

    I converted from a PC to a Mac Mini.  I have my PC documents backed up on a DVD disk.  I have an external DVD drive connected to the Mac Mini.  I want to open these documents up from the DVD storage and save them to the Mac, BUT....when I put the DVD disk in the Mac is NOT reading it!

    Hi Joe,
    Thanks for your quick response.  I should add....it worked before.  When I previously inserted the two DVDs into this remote drive, and I went into finder, I could click on the "remote device" line and see all my saved documents (excel, word, etc) on the DVD and open them on the Mac.  Now I cannot see them, when I try to open them on the Mac, nothing happens, nothing is displayed.  I just re-tested the remote DVD drive with a CD and, no problem, it opened up the CD via iTunes and I cold play the CD.  SO......I know the remote DVD drive (it's an LG by the way) is fine, it's something to do with some settings on my mini mac,especially where I could open it previously.  I do not remember changing any settings since then. 
    When I go into system preferences and click on CD/DVD it gives me options of how to open up a music CD (default is iTunes), a DVD (default is iMovie), etc.  The problem is my DVD is all miscellaneious files/documents.  I just want to be able to see them in the finder.  I also tried to open them via microsoft word, from the remote disk and again, it could not open the drive, even though some of the documents were microsoft word documents.  Again, I was able to open them previously and the DVD is not corrupted in any way.  
    Any additional advice? 
    Thank you!

  • Why may mac starts all programmes (word, excel..etc), when I turn my mac on?

    why may mac starts all programmes (word, excel..etc), when I turn my mac on?

    Make sure that Open at Login is not selected?
    ... and that you have not checked the box "Reopen windows when logging back in"?
    ...  and Word, Excel etc are not included in the items listed in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items?
