Carriage returns no longer available in Numbers

I have just updated to the latest version of Numbers on my iPad following the update to iOS 5. It appears that the new version has annoyingly lost the ability to insert a carriage return within a cell. The onscreen keyboard now diplays a "Next" key where the "Return" used to be. I have tried every key combination on the onscreen and Mac bluetooth keyboard but cannot find how to insert a carriage return. This is driving me nuts - can anyone help with this??
Thanks

In the previous version of Numbers i.e. before the iOS 5 update I could execute a carriage return by calling the on screen keyboard up. However, the on screeen keyboard now has a "Next" key in place of a "Return" key which moves the cursor down to the cell below. I have escalated this to Apple as I am sure this can't be intentional behaviour.

Numbers ought to keep check box that allows carriage return within a cell universally within a table

Apple really fell asleep at the switch when releasing its latest version of Numbers 2013 (3.2), because it ignored the universal learning styles of human beings who have used the software in earlier releases and seemed to change features with little consideration for the community as a whole.
For example, why would you delete the feature that allows a user to turn-on or turn-off the "carriage return within a cell". It seems smart of them to add the abilityt to simply press the Option key and hit return at the same time to allow a carriage return within a cell, but why would you DELETE the feature that allows returns within a cell universally within a table?
And then the Inspector got completely revised.
Time saved in creating technologies gets eaten up in having to relearn technology every time a new release is created that doesn't build on the previous release very well.

Adamo,
You are complaining to fellow users. It is best to post your feedback to Apple using the menu item

After update Firefox keeps returning a "Gone The requested resource /administrator/index.php is no longer available" reponse when trying to access joomla login

After automatic update to 32.2 (then I tried to update to 33.0 beta with no improvement) Firefox keeps returning a "Gone The requested resource /administrator/index.php is no longer available" reponse when trying to access joomla login. The problem is there even when I fill manually the fileds "user" and "password" in the joomla admin login page. The problem appears in different sites on different servers, and do not occurr using Google Chrome. It's clearly a Firefox issue. Could you please give me some ideas on how to solve ?

Carriage return (cmd-alt-return) in a event

Since I switched to Mac OS Lion, carriage returns are no longer functional (cmd-alt-return). Instead of lists, my text is condensed and difficult to read. Is this a bug? Is there a setting that can correct this?

Remaining on my first idea, In Numbers we may achieve the same goal using an auxiliary table with a single cell containing the needed line break.
If this table is named "LineBreak",
the formula will be:
="Hello"&LineBreak :: $A$1&"World"
*In Pages, here is my workaround:*
Enter the cell
type a§b
don't type the character § but ctrl + return.
The cell will contain
a
b
with the arrow, move before the a
type =B2&"
delete the original a
move to the right
delete the original b

Please explain me how I can use Form feed(\f) and Carriage return(\r)

what is Form feed(\f) and Carriage return(\r)?
Please explain to me.
Thank you.

These control characters aren't used much these days except that if you example a Windows or MSDOS text file in a binary editor you'll find each line ends with "\r\n". However when reading or writing text through classes these carriage returns will be added and removed automatically so your program doesn't see them.
The controlls date back to teletype machines which operated rather like typewriters. Cariage return, as it's name implied, caused the print head to move back to the start of the line, line feed advanced a line (without, necessarilly, returning the carriage) and formfeed skipped to the next page.
Newline on these machines was always "return, linefeed" because executing the carriage return on these machine could take too long. The early machines had only a single character buffer so that they had to executed the characters as quickly as they arrived. So doing the linefeed after the carriage return gave the carriage more time to return. On some teletypes if you did "linefeed, return" then the first character of the new line would often be printed somewhere in the middle of the line.
This is the origin of the MSDOS/Windows end of line sequence.
Many printers will still respect formfeed if printing is direct. Some will take carriage return without linefeed to allow you to start again overprinting the same line.
However printing, these days, is seldom direct but done in bitmap form.

On Windows 8.1 and Firefox 36.0.1 the textarea in forms has no carriage returns. Earlier versions the forms work. Is there a fix for this?

Prior to this version of Firefox 36.0.1, the <textarea> in my HTML forms was working; displaying carriage returns. In version 36.0.1 they no longer function properly. Instead when I enter a carriage return, it displays a space instead of a newline. I went to the most basic textarea testing
<textarea> name="comments" cols=20 rows=10 </textarea>
to make sure I wasn't introducing anything with other languages.
I am using Windows 8.1 Pro. I rolled back to Firefox 35.0 and everything works fine. I install 36.0.1 and it stops working.
I have access to another Laptop also running the same version of windows and Firefox and it appears to be doing strange things as well. I am suspicious in that I started noticing this immediately after a windows upgrade last night. The laptop also experienced the issues it is having immediately after a windows update yesterday evening.
I have yet another PC running a different version of windows and Firefox and it too works fine. It looks like the issue is where there is windows 8.1 Pro and Firefox 36.0.1.
Do you guys have any idea what is going on here?
Thanks

The current release supports the white-space property for a text area and it is possible that the website uses white-space: pre instead of white-space: pre-wrap.
The former will prevent Firefox from wrapping the text.
You can check that in the Inspector via the right-click context menu.
*https://developer.mozilla.org/Tools/Page_Inspector
See:
*https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Releases/36#CSS
<blockquote>The white-space property is now working on <textarea> HTML elements (bug 82711).</blockquote>

Async tcp client and server. How can I determine that the client or the server is no longer available?

Hi,
Have you debug these two applications? Does it go into the catch exception block when you close the client or the server?
According to my test, it will throw an exception when the client or the server is closed, just log the exception message in the catch block and then you'll get it:
private async void Process()
try
while (true)
var data = await this.Receive();
this.NewMessage.Invoke(Encoding.ASCII.GetString(data));
catch (Exception exception)
Console.WriteLine(exception.Message);
Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
By the way, I don't know what the SafeInvoke method is, it may be an extension method, right? I used Invoke instead to test it.

Problem with "carriage Return" or "Line Feed" in a table

Hello,
I need help with the function Zeichen(), so called it in german, I'm not sure if it is char() in english.
In Pages Version 4.0.1 (746) I've created a table in Pages with this function to make an "carriage Return" in a cell.
Here an example: { ="Hello" & Zeichen(10) & "World" }, in the cell is now:
| Hello |
| World |
But in Pages Version 4.0.3 (766) this function ZEICHEN() not allow the number 10 and other till 32 (I allready read the manual and understand this problem).
Anybody an idea to make a "Carriage Return" or "Line feed" in a formular, in a cell, in a table, in Pages?
Thanks
Detlev Kormann

I am losing my carriage returns when sending emails. How to keep? uses SMTP Email MIME Text Content-Type.vi

I am losing my carriage returns when sending emails using the Internet email vi's.
All carriage returns are stripped out and I get one long word wrapped paragraph.
I want to avoid html.
Ideally, using the vi's for rich text would be perfect, but a simple text message with carriage returns and line feeds in any font ok.
uses SMTP Email MIME Text Content-Type.vi
i have tried text/plain, text/html, and mixed yada something

You need to use Line feed constant and then use concatenate function.See the screen shot.

Why is Coldplay Live 2012 no longer available in the iTune store, and did my previous purchase of that content vanish from my iCloud ? library

Still wondering the same thing. Why is Coldplay's beautiful LIVE 2012 content no longer available on iTunes ? Since I have previously purchased this concert movie , why is it no longer in the iCloud servers available to download or even more strange why is the 2003 concert movie available and not 2012 Live ?
I have talked with support and they have been great but the mystery has yet to be solved ! I have notified the Coldplay official website, and within the current
wave of new album buzz and promotion a 2012 piece of art can be ignored.
After watching the NBC special i immediately have fond memories of 2012 LIVE and I know it is available as a blue ray , so all is not lost, but in this new era of cloud computing from an iPad Air , aside from backing up on an airport extreme router , I can always hope my content will return considering the meta data of my previous purchase should push it back to my iCloud library. Meanwhile whether it's licensing, country regions of sale , or a server software glitch , who knows ,the wireless experiment must go on ! Even if it's repackaged the aesthetic value of that piece is worth repurchase !
Let me know concert movie fans if similar mishaps have effected your iCloud libraries.

I did not fail to keep a local copy. Fortunately, I have an iMac and I downloaded the movie when it was still in my purchased items list. I would imagine, however, that there are many people who only own an iPad/iPhone and/or an Apple TV and don't own a computer and therefore lost the ability to stream this item from iTunes. This, after all, was the promise of the "Post-PC world" that Apple was "ushering in" (and yes, I recognize that the person who said this at the 2011 WWDC keynote - the SVP of iOS Software - is no longer employed by Apple).
And I do understand that content creators can remove items from the store, or modify "something" in the original (perhaps that even applies to "modified" artwork) and require people to re-purchase the item. In fact, I hope it occurs more often with movies, and perhaps even TV shows and music and books (sorry, you have to re-purchase the book because we replaced the original with one containing a new forward). Maybe then people will see that they are not actually "purchasing" the items at all, and that the whole "iTunes in the Cloud" is, at best, nothing more than a marketing gimmick.

I have an iphone 2g unlocked for tmobile. For the past 2 years it has worked fine then out of no where I get this message "your selected cellular network is no longer available" and the service cuts in and out all day. It can't find tmobile on my phone?

I have an iphone 2g unlocked for tmobile. For the past 2 years it has worked fine then out of no where I get this message "your selected cellular network is no longer available" and the service cuts in and out all day. It can't find tmobile on my phone for some reason but for 2 years previous it could no problem? tmobile says it is a problem with my phone and not their service.
Any ideas what to do?

I would just explain that this just started happening, that nothing has changed on the phone, that it is an original iPhone and I wondered if they are implementing a change in coverage with their Edge network in my area.
If you restore your phone, you will be given an option to back up your phone at the beginning of the process (see step 6 here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414). You will be given the option to restore to that backup at the end of the restore process. Your messages are stored in the backup so restoring to the backup will return the messages to your phone. Be sure to import your photos and videos to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083) and back up your contacts somewhere before restoring your phone as these sometimesget lost in the restore process.

How do I get a carriage return in a Calendar "event" in Mt. Lion? I used to be able to do option-return which has worked for previous s/w versions. Help!!!

Carriage returns are not working when viewing events!
Before I installed Mt. Lion, I could hold OPTION while hitting RETURN and it ould insert an "invisible" carriage return. This no longer works. Help!!! My calendar is becoming non-functional, as I cannot read my clients' appointments... as there is so much run-on info now.
When creating events, I need to put anywhere from 3-10 lines of text, separated by carriage returns. This is driving me nuts!
Anyone have a fix for this???

Read Only TextAreas with Carriage Return, Line Breaks and Word Wrapping

Hi all,
I know there are a few posts around this subject but I cannot find the answer to the exact problem I have.
I have a page that has a 'TextArea with Character Counter' (4000 Chars) that is conditionally read only based on the users credentials (using the 'Read Only' attributes of the TextArea item).
When the field is editable (not Read Only) everything works fine but when I make the field Read Only I start to have problems:
The first problem is that the Carriage Return and Line Breaks are ignored and the text becomes one continuos block. I have managed to fix this by adding pre and post element text of pre and /pre tags. This has made the Carriage Return and Line Breaks word nicely and dispaly correctly.
However, it has introduced a second problem. Long lines, with no Carriage Returns or Line Breaks, now extend to the far right of the page with no word wrapping, making my page potentially 4000+ characters wide.
How can I get the field to be display only, with recognised Carriage Returns and Line Breaks, and Word Wrapping inside a fixed width of, say, 150 characters?
Many thanks,
Martin

Hi,
Just a cut and paste of yours with the field name changed:
htp.p('<script>');
htp.p('$x("P3_COMMENTS").readonly=true;');
htp.p('</script>');I also have the following in the page HTML Header, could they be conflicting?
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
function setReleaseToProd(wpTypeCode){
//setReleaseToProd($v(this))
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$v('pFlowId'),'APPLICATION_PROCESS=set_release_to_prod',0);
get.addParam('x01',wpTypeCode);
gReturn = get.get();
if(gReturn) {
$s('P3_RELEASE_TO_PROD',gReturn);
get = null;
</script>I am a long way from knowing much about Javascript (this page code was written by someone else) so all help is much appreciated.

I have an app update on my phone through the app store, but i dont have that app and when i hit update it says the item is no longer available for sale,, but i cannot get rid of the little 1 at the corner of the app store app,, how can i get rid of it

You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store notice. For example, if the App Store says you need to update "Twitter," the hacked app may be "Angry Birds" or something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you have to carry out a systematic search.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
In the Finder, press the key combination command-F to open a search window, or select
File ▹ Find
from the menu bar. In the search window, select
Search: This Mac
from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu initially showing Kind. From that menu, select Other...
A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select Raw Query and click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of popup menu. Click in that box and paste (command-V).
The search window will show all the App Store products you've installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
At least one of the items listed in the search window is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Test.
