Excel documents on my iPad

Hello,
How can I modify excel documents on my Ipad in Numbers? And how can I change the direction of the text in the documents on my ipad 2?

I don't really understand your question about the direction of text, but for modifying excel documents, you just need to open them in Numbers and then make any modifications you wish. You can the export them back out to excel via email or dropbox or however else you choose.
One word of advice, do this on a copy of your data the first time or two, as Numbers is not the same thing as Excel. There are definite differences and your changes may not carry over correctly. There are also other apps that work with excel including the web apps in Microsoft skydrive and cloudon.

  • How do you put word or excel documents onto an IPAD?

    How do you put word or excel documents onto an IPAD?

    There are no Microsoft Word or Excel apps for the iPad, yet.
    The Pages app, among a few others will open, write to and save Word docs. Numbers will do the same for Excel files.
    First thing is to buy and download an app to work on these docs from the ap store. Then sync with your computer to have the apps on both your iPad and in your iTunes on your computer. Once this is done you can copy files to the Pages or Numbers section on your iTunes then sync with your iPad to have them copied to the iPad. Also, any Word or Excel files that you receive via email will also open in Pages and or Excel and can be saved to the list of files for those apps.

  • Importing a excel document onto an ipad

    I have several microsoft mac spreadsheets i want to import for numbers.
    How do I import the files onto my ipad? And two how do i get numbers to reconize that their is an imported spread sheet?
    Thanks

    It will show up fine. In version 1.2 of Numbers (the most current), there is an arrow pointing down into a box |_| that looks like that... It is at the bottom of the screen in the center. Tap that and select copy from iTunes. scroll through the list of files and select the correct file you wish to open, an presto, it will open (after converting from .xls/.xlsx of course)
    If you have an older version the button will be in the top right corner (although I can't remember what the icon is)...

  • Excel documents

    Do I have to buy the Numbers app to work on an Excel document on my ipad? I only have 1 document that i need to keep with me and work on. I really didn't want to have to buy an app for it.

    You can't edit the spreadsheet offline without an app. You can download the spreadsheet from Google Docs with many apps, such as Goodreader, but you will not be able to edit it without an app.
    You can edit spreadsheets on Google docs online with no real problems, as long as they aren't too complex. You just need a wifi/3g connection, depending on which iPad you have.

  • How can I insert photos to excel documents from iPad?

    I need to find a way to edit excel docs from my iPad. I have found numerous apps that work great. The thing I'm having trouble with is editing or inserting images or art into the spreadsheets as you can with excel.

    I have a windows pc. I want to access my business excel documents. Can I do that on an ipad?
    Can I upload them to icloud from a windows pc and then access them on the ipad?

    You would have to do this via Purchasing Numbers from the App Store. Have iCloud Setup, and go to icloud.com > Sign In > iWork > Upload the Excel File. As long as the extension is ".doc" or ".docx" the iPad will be able to read it/edit it.

    If you just need to read it, send it to yourself (an e-mail address you can access on your iPad) and open the Excel file from mail -- it will automatically open. If you need to edit it, I would recommend the app Numbers from Apple.

  • ITunes wont sync all documents to the iPad.

    When i try to sync documents to the iPad then it won't do so with all the documents.
    Documents from Numbers, pages, etc wont arrive on the iPad.
    The iPad reacts, it says it is synchronizing, when a document is added or dropped on the list, but it wont appears in the iPad.
    The problem goes even further when i try to load a second document to iTunes and iTunes don't shows it in it's own list.
    When i do it a second time I got the error that the document already exist.
    Deleting is no option since it wont show.
    When sending an excel-sheet to Office2 HD on the iPad that arrives.
    Is there a file on the Mac that needs deleting to get it work?
    I use a MacPro with Lion.
    All apps are up-to-date, including iTunes and the iPad.

    1. Backup the phone to iTunes
    2. Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Data and Settings
    3. Reactivate phone
    4. Restore backup from iTunes
    5. Sync with iTunes.

  • Saving excel & word docs onto ipad

    i have downloaded smart office 2 onto my ipad about 2 months ago, for some reason i can no longer save excel & word documents onto my ipad anymore.
    before i would hold finger on attchment and it would give me option to open document with smart office and i could save the document, now when i hold finger on attachment it just gives me the email icon option thats all. the attachment icon would appear as a word or excel document on the email, it no longer appears that way. what could be the problem

    Try going into Dropbox and tapping on the file. You should see what looks like a box with an up arrow on it. Tap that icon, then choose Open In... and Pages should be a choice.
    On a Mac or a PC, you can save things in 1 place and have multiple applications access themas needed. On the iPad, you have to store the files in just one place, and, if you wish to move them, you need to go to their current storage spot (in this case, Dropbox) and use the Open In... feature to move it to another app.
    Hopefully that makes sense.

  • How do I open an excel document in an email and use numbers to edit it

    I receive emails with excel documents in them.  Am I able to open the document and use the numbers app on my iPad 2 to edit this document?

    AFAIK - and I do use Pages on the iPad, you have to use the file sharing feature to transfer the file to iTunes on the computer. That is how I have always made to transfer. Obviously you have to have the iPad connected to the computer And set up for a sync, but I don't think the files will transfer unless to use file sharing. I may be reading the whole thing incorrectly because the article does state ...
    Using iTunes 9.1 or later, you can copy files between your computer and apps on your iOS device that support File Sharing (for example, Pages for iPad supports File Sharing, so you can create a document in Pages on your iPad, then copy it to your Mac so you can open it in Pages for Mac OS X). This article explains how to copy files between your computer and your iOS device using File Sharing.
    This may mean if you want to edit the files on the computer you must use file sharing via the sync process. However, I'm not so sure that syncing, in and of itself will actually transfer the files. The key here is if you want to have access in iTunes you use file sharing. Email, cloud services work as well as you know.
    I don't want to mess the OP up either, but this method is supposed to be the sure fire way to transfer the files. I will try when I get home just using a sync. Actually, once you try the file sharing method, it really is very easy to do.
    OT ... I realize .... But I've been looking for a reason to bring up the subject of the Buccos and the Reds. Such a strange feeling here in the Burgh again. Like the '70's almost. You are right ... Long way to go!
