CfSpreadsheet Read: Formulas being literally read as opposed to cell value
I am having a problem with cfspreadsheet.
I am reading an excel spreadsheet and converting it into a CSV file. I noticed that my cfspreadsheet returns formula values and not the calculated value of the cell. Is there a way to work around that? I researched this forum and other forums and similar posts had no entries/responses from the CF community. Please help.
Thank you!
I had the same issue and I used Ben Nadel's POI utility to read the excel file. It reads the cell values instead of the formula properly.

Mail will not mark messages as read after being opened
Mail will not mark messages as read after being opened... the blue dot will NOT go away, no matter how many times I open the e-mail.
It's a simple pop account. I AM able to mark messages read with the message menu item (mark as read.) I also have nothing synced with it, no iPhone, no IMAP accounts, no .mac account, nothing.
But this is a real pain to have to do manually, when it used to happen automatically upon clicking the e-mail, it opening in a window to read, and then closing it.
All was working fine up until the 10.5.7 update. I hoped the 10.5.8 update would fix the problem, but no change. Everything else is working perfectly (I do the permissions repair/disk verify procedure before and after each update.)
Can't seem to find anyone else with this problem in here either, through search or just going through hundreds of messages.Okay, then lets try this:
1. Select all your messages in the Inbox; then use the contextual menu or the Message > Mark menu to mark them all as Read.
2. Quit Mail.
3. Go to Home/Library/Mail and delete the Envelope Index file.
4. Restart Mail, wait for the index to rebuild and retrieve any new email you might have, and see if the problem contineus. Hopefully it will not. -
Unread emails marked as read without being opened
On my Ipad 2, unread emails are marked as read without being opened. This happens when I open the email from my laptop after using the ipad. There are four email accounts on the ipad and they are all experiencing this. Any idea what is going on?
I rebuilt it several days ago and no change. I watched what happens and when an email comes in it shows unread and then changes to read immediately. Today, for some reason, the emails started coming in as unread and staying that way. I didn't change anything. ?????

My card reader keeps being automatically disconnected
Hi
I recently go a MacBook Pro 15" retina display to work on the go.
I'm a photographer and usually import my photos via a card reader to Adobe Lightroom.
Everytime I try uploading them, the card reader is being disconnected and tells me that the disk was not ejected properly.
If I try on my iMac, it works perfectly so I can conclude the fault doesn't come neither from the card or the card reader but perhaps the usb ports!?
Any ideas?
ThanksIt's quite the possible even though the card reader was comaptible with a prior Mac OS X, it's not compatible with v10.9 Mavericks.

Hello,
I am wondering if the following scenario is possible:
Cell B contains a formula which refers to a number of other cells.
Cell A refers to Cell B such that the formula in Cell B is applied in Cell A.
I am aware that I can copy and paste, but I am wanting to do this dynamically, for the following reason.
In order to avoid constructing a very complicated formula which involves lots of tricky IF functions, I use a formula with a chain of simpler IF functions, such as follows:
=IF(A1=1,B1,IF(A1=2,B2,IF(A1=3,B3,IF(A1=4,B4,IF(A1=5,B5,IF(A1=6,B6,IF(A1=7,B7,"" )))))))
Then in B1-B7 I include the complicated formulas, and depending on which value is actually in cell A1 that particular formula is applied in the cell (i.e the cell is populated with the respective formula).
Is it possible to use Numbers in this way, or if not, is there another way of achieving my goal (i.e. to avoid having to construct one very long and complicated formula)?
Thanks,
Nick.It depend of what you want to achieve.
Here, in standard cells of column B the formula is :
=IF($A=1,C,IF($A=2,D,IF($A=3,E,IF($A=4,F,IF($A=5,G,"")))))
Here, in standard cells of column C the formula is :
=$A*10
Here, in standard cells of column D the formula is :
=$A^2
Here, in standard cells of column E the formula is :
=$A*12345
Here, in standard cells of column F the formula is :
=$A+10000
Here, in standard cells of column G the formula is :
=20000-$A
Here, in standard cells of column H the formula is :
=OFFSET($A$1,ROW()-1,A+1)
Here, in standard cells of column I the formula is :
=CHOOSE($A,C,D,E,F,G)
Here, in standard cells of column J the formula is :
=IF($A=1,$A*10,IF($A=2,$A^2,IF($A=3,$A*12345,IF($A=4,$A+10000,IF($A=5,20000-$A," ")))))
As you see, the formulas used in column B,H, I, require the use of the columns C, D, E, F, G
The one used in column I doesn't require these columns.
When a task requires a complex formula, I often used the columna A thru G
then when I'm sure that the formula in column B return behave exactly what I want, I replace in the formula of column B the references to columns C thru G by the formula embedde in the pointed columns minus the equal symbol.
It's what I did to build the formula of column J.
If you build the sample table, you will see that the formula in column I isn't perfect because it return a red triangle when the cell in column A is empty.
I decided to leave it as is and created an enhanced synthetic formula for column K:
=IFERROR(CHOOSE(A,$A*10,$A^2,$A*12345,$A+10000,20000-$A),"")
As you see a single problem may receive different answers.
Sometimes, one is clearly the best, sometimes it's matter of taste.
Here my best choice would be the very last one which I added for column K.

We are trying to communicate with the AT106 balance of Mettler Toledo.The VI is attached.
We are sending in "SI" which is a standard command that is recoginsed by the balance. The balance reads it.The indicator after the property node indicates that there are 8 bytes available on the serial port. However, the VISA read VI fails to read the bytes at the serial port and gives the following error:
Error -1073807253 occurred at VISA Read in visa test.vi
Possible reason(s):
VISA: (Hex 0xBFFF006B) A framing error occurred during transfer.
The Vi is atttached.
Thanks
Vivek

visa_test.vi 50 KBHello,
You should also definitely check the baud rates specified; a framing error often occurs when different baud rates are specified, as the UARTs will be attempting to transmit and receive at different rates, causing the receiving end to either miss bits in a given frame, or sample bits more than once (depending on whether the receiving rate is lower or higher respectively). You should be able to check the baud rate used by your balance in the user manual, and match it in your VI with the baud rate parameter of the VISA Configure Serial Port VI.
Best Regards,
JLS

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!

How do I get mail on my iPhone and computer to sync automatically, so e.g. messages read on one appear read on both? I am working in VN and the microsoft access server is in the USA.
If you created as an Exchange account on the iPhone (not IMAP or POP) and you have Push on it should all work smoothly; Reading a message on either client should mark the other read (it does on mine). Try deleting the account from the phone, rebooting the phone (to clear out old settings), then go to Settings/Mail,Contacts,Calendar, add an account and tap Microsoft Exchange and add the account back.
There is a fundamental difference between BB and iPhone that you should be aware of; on the BB you do not sync directly with Exchange; you sync with the RIM server which then syncs with your Exchange server. The iPhone syncs directly with Exchange using Microsoft's ActiveSync protocol. So in some ways they will behave differently. But ActiveSync should manage marking messages as read correctly. -
Running Firefox 4.0 on an Intel Mac OS 10.5.8. Same problem with Firefox 3.6.16. You can save a Firefox window as a pdf file by using the File dropdown menu and selecting Print. Under Print, you can select PDF, then Save as PDF or Save as Adobe PDF. Firefox will save the file. If you try to open the file you get an error message that the file is damaged and cannot be opened. I did not have this problem in Safari; I followed the same procedures and the pdf file opened fine in Adobe Reader. Why is Reader rejecting the pdf file produced by Firefox when it did not reject the pdf file produce by Safari?
If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem. -
After an upgrade of acrobat reader 9 to acrobat reader 11 the automatic printing of a pdf. The pdf is opened, but the print does not happen. With acrobat reader 9 it works. But with acrobat reader 11 the printing does not happen.
I discovered when you specify pp.constants.interactionLevel.full it works on acrobat reader 11. But when you specify pp.constants.interactionLevel.silent or pp.constants.interactionLevel.automatic it does not work on acrobat reader 11. But with the full option we have a dialog print box
we do not want.
In our jsp we load a pdf document and create a message handler to detect the print events of a pdf document that is in an <object> tag.
In the pdf document we add
package be.post.lpo.util;
import org.apache.commons.lang.StringEscapeUtils;
import org.apache.commons.lang.StringUtils;
public class AcrobatJavascriptUtil {
public String getPostMessageToHostContainer(String messageName, String messageBody){
return "var aMessage=['"+messageName+ "', '"+ messageBody+"'];this.hostContainer.postMessage(aMessage);";
public String getAutoPrintJavaScript(String interactiveType, String printerName,String duplexType) {
String interactiveTypeCommand = "";
if (StringUtils.isNotBlank(interactiveType)){
interactiveTypeCommand = "pp.interactive = " + interactiveType + ";";
String duplexTypeCommand = "";
if (StringUtils.isNotBlank(duplexType)){
duplexTypeCommand = "pp.DuplexType = " + duplexType + ";";
return "" + // //
"var pp = this.getPrintParams();" + // //
// Nointeraction at all dialog, progress, cancel) //
interactiveTypeCommand + //
// Always print to a printer (not to a file) //
"pp.printerName = \"" + StringEscapeUtils.escapeJavaScript(printerName) + "\";" + //
// Never print to a file. //
"pp.fileName = \"\";" + //
// Print images using 600 DPI. This option MUST be set or some barcodes cannot //
// be scanned anymore. //
"pp.bitmapDPI = 600;" + //
// Do not perform any page scaling //
"pp.pageHandling = pp.constants.handling.none;" + //
// Always print all pages //
"pp.pageSubset = pp.constants.subsets.all;" + //
// Do not autocenter //
"pp.flags |= pp.constants.flagValues.suppressCenter;" + //
// Do not autorotate //
"pp.flags |= pp.constants.flagValues.suppressRotate;" + //
// Disable setPageSize i.e. do not choose paper tray by PDF page size //
"pp.flags &= ~pp.constants.flagValues.setPageSize;" + //
// Emit the document contents. Document comments are not printed //
"pp.printContent = pp.constants.printContents.doc;" + //
// printing duplex mode to simplex, duplex long edge, or duplex short edge feed //
duplexTypeCommand +
// Print pages in the normal order. //
"pp.reversePages = false;" + //
// Do the actual printing //
"this.print(pp);";

Until today, I had no trouble opening Adobe Acrobat files with Adobe Reader 9.5. (I need to use an old version of Adobe Reader, because I use a program called Macro Express that does not recognize later versions.) Starting this morning, when I click on an Acrobat file, I am asked which program I want to open it with. Even when I click "Do this automatically...", it doesn't do so. It asks me every time. I went into Tools, Applications, and changed all of the pdf related issues to open with Adobe Reader 9.5. This also doesn't work.
What I did was to reinstall/upgrade Adobe Reader, then there is an new option showing up in Firefox > options > applications > Portable Document Format(PDF), which is "use adobe acrobat in Firefox". Choose this one, then I managed again to open PDF files with Adobe Reader internally in Firefox.
