Changes to Numbers document on iOS get discarded
I was happily updating my spreadsheet with Numbers on my iPad 3. Then I opened the document in iCloud but the latest changes to my document weren't there. So, I closed the document at icloud.com and went back to my iPad. The latest changes to my Numbers document were completely erased from the iPad as well! There was absolutely no warning of conflicts and I didn't edit the spreadsheet in icloud.com at all!
What makes this happen and what to do to avoid this?
Now those changes aren't showing up in the same document on my iMac.
of course not. iwork on Mac does not even know that icloud exists. Syncing of iwork files is only active in iOS devices, not for Mac.
How can I accomplish this task?
navigate from mac to www.icloud.com , go to the iwork section, up- or download your file :
After editing a downloaded document, you must re-upload it, else the iOS doesn't get the changes . The browser is the missing link, because as I said : iwork on Mac has no cloud integration - none. You can also use Microsoft or Open-Office, it just does not matter.. Basically you would not even have to have iwork09 installed, only those ios apps.

Why can I not open Numbers documents in iOS
I have a problem with Numbers on iOS and Mac OS X (Mountain Lion (version 10.8.2) that I have seen asked before, but to which I have yet to see an answer. I've been using iWork on iOS devices since it was introduced for the iPad and iPhone, and I use it on a MacBook. Across an iPhone 5, iPad, iPad mini, and the MacBook, I am unable to open numerous documents created last year. The most recent spreadsheets open alright, but the vast majority won't open, generating the error "Spreadsheet can't be opened." I have all the lastest system software updates on all of these machines. It appears it is the same documents that cannot be opened on each of the machines. None of the documents have the "uploading" indicator (up arrow), but some of them have the stock Numbers icon (a bar chart in black and gray), while some have a document preview. It's unclear if this is related, but several of the documents on the iPad mini appear to be in a perpetual state of downloading, with progress bars running through their stock Numbers icon, and never filling up/completing.
Hello Richie_koria,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Numbers document email cannot get off screen
I emailed a Numbers doc to myself. When I opened the file, it appeared. But, I can't close the file or do anything with it. I can quit Mail, but when I return to mail, the Numbers file is there & I cannot see my emails.
Okay, back to working. Held down the power button until red message appeared asking if I wanted to shut down. Then hold down Home button until home screen appeared. Mail then opened properly. Selected the email and launched the attachment. It froze again. Next effort the "open in" and " done" buttons appeared for a short period of time. Got to have quick fingers, but can now close the file.

TextEdit is the default application for my Numbers documents
Although I did not set it to be, TextEdit is the default application for my Numbers documents. It was not always this way, but it is now, and I can't seem to change the default application back to Numbers ('09). For example, when I double-click any .numbers document, I always get the following error message:
The document “xxxxx.numbers” could not be opened. The file isn’t in the correct format. The file might be corrupted, truncated, or in an unexpected format.
See: http://screencast.com/t/P5OSAJAq
Therefore, whenever I want to open a.numbers document, I must drag it to the Numbers application icon or right-click and select “open with” and select Numbers from the list of applications. Although this works fine, it creates a couple of extra steps that I would prefer not to do
My first inclination was to “Get info” and change the “open with” back to Numbers for all .numbers documents.

http://screencast.com/t/LAnPsbeGdB
However, selecting Numbers as the default application will not persist after clicking “change all.” Rather, it reverts back to TextEdit. Tony, this is the only way I know how to select the default application for a document type.
Is there another location where I can set/reset the default application?
Thanks!I guess that there is at least one database used by the Operating System which is corrupted.
Run a maintenance application : MAINTENANCE is a free very good one available thru :
www.titanium.free.fr/
and ask it to repair permissions,
delete caches
repair database Launch Services.

I cannot open my recent numbers documents
I cannot open my recent numbers documents because I get the message saying I need to download the latest version from the App Store although the App Store says I have the latest version (09 v2.03 is installed) I cannot do anything. I have tried quitting everything & restarting. Just keep getting the same error message and it refuses to open
Mark,
Unfortunately, the preference in Finder's Get Info doesn't work for setting a default since the file names are identical. Some users here have gone into the Applications folder and changed the filename of one of the apps to distinguish them.
A decent workaround is to make sure you have Quite both Numbers apps and look to see if either is on the Dock. If so, drag the icon off the dock. Then use Spotlight to search for Numbers. Two apps will be found:
Numbers - Applications and Numbers - iWork. Choose Numbers - Applications by clicking on it to launch the app. When the Numbers icon shows up in the Dock, Right-Click the icon and choose Options > Keep in Dock.
Henceforth launch from the Dock rather than from the document. To open documents, you can use the File menu in Numbers, or you can drag the file to the Numbers icon in the dock.
I've read that if only one version of Numbers is running, that's the one that will be used if you simply double-click a document name or icon. I haven't confirmed that.

How do I print a Numbers document? All I get is the heading!
How do I print a Numbers document on my Mac? All I get is the heading!
Hi L,
What do you see after Menu > File > Print?
Are you using Numbers 2.3 (Numbers '09) or Numbers 3.1?
Please reply with a screen shot of a small part of your screen (large shots are often difficult to read).
To take a screen shot,
1. hold down the shift and command keys, then type 4. The cursor will change to crosshairs. Release the shift and command keys.
2. Drag over that part of your screen then release the mouse/trackpad. A screen shot will appear on your desktop.
3. In a reply to a message, click on the camera icon in the Toolbar above your reply and
4. Choose File > Choose > Insert Image.
If this does not work, Close the Insert Box (red cross on the top right) and go back to Step 3. Camera icon sometimes needs a wake-up call, but works the second time.
Remove any personal details before taking the screen shot.
Regards,
Ian. -

How to get the screen number in the change/display FI Document screen?
Hi guys,
I was just wondering if there is a way, in the abap dictionary or otherwise, for me to detect the assigned screen number in the FI Change/Display Document screen (FB02/FB03)?
I ask this because the screen number changes depending on the line item's posting key and G/L Account from my observation.
Hope to hear from all of you soon.
Thank you all and good day.Yes you can get by the SHDB transaction
GO to SHDB. click on the new recording... give the name of the recording as ZFB02.. enter the tcode FI02 and press start recording..
Put the Document and open all required screens.. you need to put the values in the required fields to be caputred in the recording.
Come back and save.
Now, if you are planning to make a BDC to change the FI document than you can use the BAPI BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_CHANGE.

I have a long numbers document, that I'd like to make more print friendly.
It is a list of my DVD's that I just listed one after the other (1-200) when I tried to print it, it would be 18 pages,
can I change it to be more like columns side by side to save paper?S,
I assume that you also have Pages on your computer (or some other capable WP program). I also assume that you have eliminated any unnecessary columns, so you have a 1-column table in Numbers.
When it comes time to print, Copy the entire Table: Click on the table name in the Sheets Pane and Command-C.
Switch to Pages, open a blank WP template and set the number of columns to 3 or so. With the Text Insertion Cursor flashing on the first line of the first column of the blank template, Command-V. Your table should paste into the Pages document as an Inline Object and will Wrap on the page as you desire. Then Print in Pages.

Uninstalling the application will not delete your files.
They should be whereever you saved them.

I just updated my 3gs to the latest iOS 5 update and now I am unable to text certain numbers. I keep getting the error code 1121611611 invalid number, even though the number I have in my contacts is a 10 digit number. Any suggestions on fixing this?

I Have the same issue on a brand new iPad mini 2. My battery is only lasting up to 5 hours. I went on chat with Apple last night and they said my battery is fine and its a Safari issue. I'm literally losing 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tried recalibrating my battery, signing out of iCloud, shutting off all locations, turning off background app refresh, restoring network settings, restoring all, and finally restoring from iTunes with no luck. This is just awful. I got this iPad so I could use it on my long flight for a trip I have coming up, and unfortunately, it's not going to last that long, plus I'm concerned about how many times i will be recharging my battery because of this since battery's do have a life cycle dependent on the number of charges. This is frustrating and needs to be fixed ASAP and addressed by Apple.
By the way, Apple told me to bring my device to the Apple Store because it's still under warranty. That's great and all, but I'm going to waste my time if there is no fix for this issue.
Ok so you want Apple to address the problem, but yet you don't want to take it to them just in case they can't fix it? What if they can fix it? Complaining here certainly won't fix it. -
