Auto-numbering in Tables - any new suggestions?

I have a table in Pages and I need each row to have a stand-alone number in the first column — simple numbering 1, 2, 3.
If I use the numbered list feature, all the rows are #1.
I have read as many other threads about numbering tables as I could find and tried the =ROW() formula, but it numbers the header row so my first row of data is 1.2. Also it doesn’t auto-number new rows -- you have to paste in the formula in every new row, and that still doesn't solve the issue of numbering the header row.
I tried the auto-fill drag feature (selecting the cells and dragging the corner), but once the cells are numbered, they do not update when the row order changes, and new rows have no numbering. The table is very long and having to update the numbering using the drag feature has become frustrating and cumbersome.
I need my first row of data to be 1 and my second row to be 2 and so on — sounds simple right?
Any suggestions other than the ones above?
Thanks in advance,
Katz
p.s., Numbers has the exact same issues and also doesn’t auto number when rows are moved or added, so it doesn't help to work in Numbers and copy ithe spreadsheet over as a table.

In Numbers, or Pages:
If your first row of data is row 2 and you want it to be numbered "1" then you use the formula "=ROW() - 1" (without the quotes) in the first column and fill it down in all the cells of the column.
If all the rows in the table except header and footer rows have that formula in them, Numbers will include the formula when you add new rows. If you rearrange the rows by cutting and pasting, or by dragging a row to somewhere else, of course, it takes the formula with it leaving a blank cell behind. (So don't do that; just move the part of the row from column "B" on.).

TS3694 I have tried every suggestion regarding installing Apple Mobile Device on Windows 7. We had no problems until iTunes attempred to upgrade to the latest 10.6.3.25 version. Any new suggestions would be most welcome. Thank you.

We have tried dozens of times to uninstall and cleanout every file. Even tried opening perms on the filerepository. Tried installing with msiec and logged. iTunes will install but AMD will not so we cannot connect the phones and pods. Any new suggestions would be greatly appreciate because we are about to give up and maybe pay somebody to try to install it which is ridiculous. I can supply the install log if anyone is interested. Thank you.

Hey thanks for replying.
Here's what I did:
First I tried the Winsock reset in the Command prompt. Nothing changed.
Next, I tried the instructions on http://http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4123. The only other program that came up on the 'Winsock Providers' tab on the program was 2 Windows Live applications, which I can do without. So I deleted all Windows Live Applications.
I did the Winsock reset in the Command Prompt again and rebooted my comp.
Unfortunately, nothing has changed. iTunes keeps freezing at various stages of the sync, then shows the candy cane-striped bar with either the words 'Finishing sync' or 'Cancelling sync', before showing the Apple logo.
Sometimes, iTunes gets to the syncing stage - "Copying # of ####" - where it will trudge through the first, second and third tracks before flashing "Copying 4 of ####" for a split second and I catch "Cancelling sync" briefly before the Apple logo appears.
Again, I've repeated the steps I mentioned in my previous post. Does ANYONE know when the new version of iTunes is set to be released?! This one is driving me INSANE, to say the least!!

If I have auto sync on will any new ratingd on ipod be wiped?

hi,
I have auto sync on. When listening to my iPod I rate tunes. Afterwards if I connect iPod to laptop and start iTunes will it delete any of the new ratings on the iPod or will it transfer them to my iTunes library?
cheers,
Pa.

With auto sync, the ratings and playcounts go back into itunes from the ipod.
It is manual sync that does not pay attention to the ipod ratings & playcounts, so you should be OK.
You can only sync to one PC doing it this way - and iPod can only auto sync to one itunes database file (the ITL file).

I can't get new version of itunes to install on Windows 7 64 bit computer. Receive message that reads insufficient privileges to access c:\program files\ipod\bin. Tried to follow some suggestions found here but nothing is working. Any new suggestions?

I can't get new version of itunes to install on Windows 7 64 bit computer. Receive message that reads insufficient privileges to access c:\program files\ipod\bin. I've followed several threads I've read here but nothing is working.

For such situation, I'd suggest the following:
1. Remove current installed office with the fix-it tool in
KB2739501, and follow the "Remove Office manually" section to make sure there are no remaining files
2. Either download a trial version of Office 2013 from
http://office.microsoft.com/, or from
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/jj937170
3. Reboot your computer in clean boot mode, and run setup again

Any new suggestions on how to send emails with godaddy account on iphone?

Godaddy email is my only email account that I cannot send emails from on my iphone. Have called everyone and read everything many times about what seems to be a common issue but verizon, godaddy and apple all have same answers, no answers or act surprised.
Tried every combination and suggestion like everyone else to no avail.
Godaddy immediately refers you to their app which works ok but it's another step and separate. Seems like they're blocking outbound to get people to use their app which is cluttered with their other usual money spending choices.
Otherwise I can't believe they're not aware of this and have no fix.
If anyone has suggestion that hasn't been mentioned 100 times online please let me know.
Thanks,

You don't have to pass the file name in the exec() in the script. Only the directory path for vbs execution in the VB Script. What you can do is check for the presence of the filename in the required directory using file_exists() function.
Create three Global Variable ($GV_FILENAME, $GV_PATH, $GV_FILE) and pass the file name and path to these variables.
$GV_PATH = 'C:\Temp';
$GV_FILENAME = '37957.pdf';
$GV_FILE ='"||$GV_PATH||'\\'||$GV_FILENAME||"';
Then write a ifelse condition in the script like below -
if(file_exists($GV_FILE) !=0)
Begin
exec('cscript','c:\\mymailscript\\MailDispatch.vbs,0);
print('file found executing vbscript');
else
raise_exception ('file not found');
end
Hope this helps.

Auto numbering tables

I am currently using FrameMaker 8.0 and have had a problem with the auto numbering of tables.
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to auto number tables using different chapter numbers within the one document?
I know that it is possible to do this when the chapters are seperate documents within one book.
E.g.
First page - Chapter 1
Table 1.1
Table 1.2
Next page - Chapter 2
Table 2.1
Table 2.2 etc.
For some reason when I try to do this any tables under Chapter 2 are still named Table 1.1 and Table 1.2 etc.
I have tried using a series but that still does not seem to work.
Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you both, this helped a great deal. However, I am still having trouble with one file in the book. It seems to be repeating the same chapter number not adding one when the style appears again. E.g. Page 1 has Chapter 1 (C:Chapter <n+>) Page 3 has Chapter 1 (which is meant to be Chapter 2) Also is there a way to continue the chapter numbers from a previous file in the book? E.g. File A has Chapters 1-4 in it File B has Chapters 5-8 in it At the moment they are restarting in each file. Any ideas? Thanks, Skye

Auto-numbering of item field in custom table for EEW enhancements for BUPA

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement to generat 3 custom tables in EEWB,for BUPA and assigned it to BP_HEAD. I have done all the generations and it works fine, the problem is that the tables that are generated is not allowing us to have a data(material) of 0...n cardinality.
The table that we are aiming is to allow multiple records, so my solution is to have an extra item number field so that it will allow multiple records for a material. But users are requesting to have the item number field of the tables to be auto-numbering.
I would like to know if this autonumbering is possible or not? what methods in BP_EEW should i use to implement this logic. I 'm very new to CRM2007, so I'm still not very familiar on how to use the objects generated by the component workbench.
p.s.
I've already search the forum but can find any relevant topic related to my request. If you have any known related topic, It would be highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
JP

Dear Syed,
   You can do many things in table maintenance screen like validation of some field, making some field required or displayed etc.
   For auto increment you have to use Number-Ranges. FM NUMBER_GET_NEXT is helpful in this case.
   Where to write the code??? The Function-Group you have made. There will be includes. You can easily locate the place to write these codes.
   Caution point is that if you re-generate the table maintenance then all code will be gone.

Deva.

Aperture freezes every time I push the auto exposure button. Any suggestions?

Aperture freezes every time I push the auto exposure button. Any suggestions?

What is your Aperture version? And since when are you haveíng this problem? Did this start, after you imported photos or updated software? Did you move your Aperture library or your original image files? Did Aperture crash?
Does it only happen when you are working in your main Aperture library, or also when you are using a different Aperture library?
As a test, create a new Aperture library and and try to adjust an image there. Does it work?

Auto numbering in an editable table cell

I created a dynamic table with add/delete row buttons and the second column with text fields. The text field I want it to initially say <enter task 1> and <enter task 2> and when the user clicks on the add row button it would then say <enter task 3>. I tried the patterns display but not sure how to get it to do auto numbering. I also tried the formcalc script $ = Concat ("<Task", $.parent.index + 1, ">"). This seemed to work with the auto numbering but then I couldn't actually edit the boxes. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated...thank you.

Did you make the field as ReadOnly or Protected?
Also make sure where did you place your code? If it is in the Calculate event, the default is "Calculated - ReadOnly".
Placing the code in Initialize event might help.
Thanks

I like the idea of auto back-up for my new iMac, Ipad and PC Netbook, particularly if I can access all files and data stored on any device. But I have a Conceptronic router. Will Time Capsule work with this and how?

I like the idea of auto back-up for my new iMac, Ipad and PC Netbook, particularly if I can access all files and data stored on any device. But I have a Conceptronic router.
1. Will Time Capsule work with this and how?
2. Can my printer USB be plugged in and then shared between the devices?
3. Can I create a network and how?
4. What happend when a visitor logs onto my existing wireless router?
I'm new to Macs (well a returning user having started with Mac Plus!!) and not very technical. Any help / advice will be much appreciated.
Ray

The key to what you seem to want to do is to be able to get Apple's Time Capsule router to "join" the network that your Conceptronic router. I believe that works with some third-party routers, but I've never seen a list of those that work in such a configuration and I have no experience with Conceptronic equipment.
You might be better off with a Network-Attached Storage (NAS) device instead of a Time Capsule.

TS4079 Siri used to work fine when making mobile calls in Ecuador until yesterday, when the administration of Ecuador added an aditional number in all mobile numbers existing in Ecuador. Since then Siri is unable to make any mobile calls with any new numb

Siri used to work fine when making mobile calls in Ecuador until yesterday, when the administration of Ecuador added an aditional number in all mobile numbers existing in Ecuador. Since then Siri is unable to make any mobile calls with any new number.Help
I`ve tried restarting, rebooting, nothing works.
The interesting thing is that SIRI can call to previous mobile numbers (without the new digit) obviously not connecting , and, can call to any other numbers as an office or home number. So the problem is the new digit in the mobile number

Ecuador has added an extra digit to mobile phone numbers but apple wont accept 10 digit phone numbers so we cant use facetime or apple IM or verify our new phone numbers. ( and Siri won't work either!) I have contacted apple support online but can't request a call back as the apple system says our new phone numbers are invalid. I am going to phone them tomorrow and you should complain too at http://www.apple.com/support/contact/. . The more people that bring this to their attention the faster it will get fixed
