Fill down - how?

I can find no way in Numbers of using fill down from the keyboard (ctrl+D in Excel). I know you can select a cell edge and drag down but there appears to be no keyboard shortcut (which is much faster and accurate).

Welcome to Apple Discussions
I agree, I also miss ⌘ D from AppleWorks. Still another thing to leave feedback to the Numbers team about.

How can I make fill down command NOT increment values?

Hi,
Is there anyway I can get the fill down command to insert the same value in each cell, rather than filling in an increasing series. It works fine for plain numbers (i.e. if I fill down from a cell containing "1", it gives a column with every cell containing "1").
However, for dates and mixtures of text and numbers it always increments the values - example below:
Doing fill down from cells containing:
1 18 Mar 2009 abc100
Gives:
1 18 Mar 2009 abc100
1 19 Mar 2009 abc101
1 20 Mar 2009 abc102
1 21 Mar 2009 abc103
1 22 Mar 2009 abc104
1 23 Mar 2009 abc105
etc...
How can I keep the dates and "abc100" the same in the filled cells?
Thanks for any help!
Jo

I have no idea how the designers of Numbers determined when to fill down identical values versus incrementing the values. For instance, "abc100" increments in a fill down while "100" and "abc" do not. I, personally, see nothing special about "abc100" that indicates a pattern.
And you are correct that Fill Down is different than dragging the circle. Fill down takes whatever is in the top cell and fills down (either incrementing or not, depending on whatever the rule is the designers chose) while overwriting whatever was in the lower cells. Dragging the circle of a box that covers 2 or more cells fills down from the bottom of the box and it looks for patterns, not just simple increments.
No problem on the search. It isn't always easy to find what you are looking for. I just happened to remember that thread.

I want to run down how dissatisfied I currently am with Verizon Wireless

I want to run down how dissatisfied I currently am with Verizon Wireless; this stated with the pre-order of the iPhones on Friday I like many other customers received the "ecdp" error on the web site and it took 45 minutes to actually be able to place the order. I got the order in and had a 09/19/2014 ship date; spoke with a few Customer Service Reps in various areas such as 611, on many of the 800 numbers available, Internet Orders (including a Supervisor) and even a Social Media Service Rep all who have confirmed this ship date to be accurate.
Well today (09/17/2014) I check the Pre-Order Status page and my date has been changed to 10/14/2014 so I call in to speak to Internet Orders and the Rep advises me that yes my date was pushed back but no reason is supplied, I asked to speak to a Supervisor and was transferred to Howard, Operator # 2431235, who stated that yes the prior rep was accurate and that there was no reason available as to why my ship date changed. Howard continues by stating that as per upper management, Apple reported to Verizon that no iPhone 6+'s would be available at launch for Verizon to ship and that this has been common knowledge, within the company, that the 6+'s were not shipping until 10/14/2014, and that prior Verizon employee's to include supervisors were misinforming me of my shipping date. Howard continued to state that the reason I got the "ecdp" error was because of the company that I work for as Verizon offers a discount so the 'ecdp" error is not something Verizon is currently addressing. Howard then tells me not to worry that with the 10/14 date is a guaranteed delivery date and not to worry, if the phones come in early the order will be filled, I at this point ask Howard to note my account with our conversation to include the fact that he stated the 10/14 was a guaranteed date, at this point he states that while he is telling me this he will not put it in writing as at that point Verizon would be obligated to meet that date at minimum and he was not willing to put his position on the line if the phone is not shipped by that date(this can be confirmed by reviewing the recording of the call as I was advised that I was on a recorded line). I then asked to speak to his supervisor and was told his supervisor went home for the day and that he was the highest level supervisor on at this time. When I then asked for his supervisors contact information to lodge a complaint he said that I would need to call back in on 611 from my handset as Customer Service handles complaints not supervisors.
I did call back and speak with a Representative on 611 who tried to assist but was not able to do much, this rep took my information and is having their supervisor call me to try addressing the way Howard handled the call however this has not occurred at the time of this writing. I did tell this rep that I was honestly considering going to another carrier, (I have been with Verizon 7-8 years and currently have 10 lines of service on my account) I know I will not get the iPhone 6+ on launch day with another carrier which was not the driving factor but rather the way Howard dealt with the situation and the lack of respect that as a customer of Verizon I have always got from other representatives, as you know it takes one person to sour someone on a whole company, Howard even stated that if I want to go to another carrier that was fine with him. However, the Customer Service Rep I spoke with after Howard (I wish I could remember his name) calmed me down not to leave Verizon but did agree that a complaint needed to be filed, personally I would like to file it directly with an Associate Vice President or higher but do understand that there is a “Chain of Command” that needs to be filed
Let this be a warning to anyone who call internet sale and gets Howard, operator #2431235, I would suggest you immediately request a different supervisor that will treat you with respect. As stated above Howard will tell you that the iPhone 6+ was not and has never been available to ship on launch day due to Apple purposely not providing enough units to meet the demand and that Verizon knew this while taking our pre-orders.

I feel your pain Robert. I do believe VZW and Apple knew all along the I6 Plus would not be available on 19 Sep and that it was a way to bolster new contracts, renewed contracts and apple sales stats. It's unfortunate the company wasn't more clairvoyant, most of us would have still pre-ordered but been a little less frustrated.

Pages equivalent for AppleWorks "Fill Down" in spreadsheets

Hi there,
In the past I've been using an AppleWorks spreadsheet to keep track of my banking. I have a balance column that uses the "Fill Down" function from the "Calculate" menu in AppleWorks. I can't seem to find similar functionality in Pages tables. Anyone out there know how to do this in Pages?
Thanks!
Meredith
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.10) using Pages 2.0.2

It is unreasonable to expect Pages to do everything AppleWorks does. Pages is only a word processing & page layout application &, along with Keynote for presentations, an application in iWork. It is not a spreadsheet or a database. It doesn't really have draw features to the extent AppleWorks does nor does it have any paint functions. If/when iWork gets applications for those functions, my expectation is that they won't be in Pages, but separate applications, just as Keynote is a separate application.

Fill Down Question

I understand how to use "Fill down" when all fields are on the same row.
A1-B1, D1-E1 etc.
But When there is a constant as in the formula A1-A4, A1-A5, A1-A6 etc How do I get the fill down to work without changing the A1. (I surely would not like to have to manually enter the formula for over 200 lines)
Thanks
-Sandy

Yes, That did the trick.
Thank you very much.
Sandy
+Now my hope is Appleworks is sold to a third party developer sometime soon.+
+I still use it for the shell of my websites (saving WP in HTML) & quick little easy graphics using draw and paint.+

HT5312 My apple account shut down how do I get it back up

My Apple ID shut down how do u get it back up

What do you mean 'shut down' ? If you mean that it's disabled then you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
You might then need to log out of your account on your iOS device by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
If you've also forgotten your security answers then read the HT5312 page that you posted from, it has instructions for how to reset them.

Fill-down function not working for resources.

Hi,
I am running P6 version 8.2 and I am trying to use the 'fill-down' function to copy resources down for certain filtered activities but the option is always greyed out.
I can fill down just about anything else but for some reason it doesn't work with resources.
Can anyone fill me in on why this may be..?
Thanks.
Russell.

You can't use fill down on any column that is a list. Predecessors, Successors, Resources, Roles and Activity Codes can all be assigned to multiple activities by highlighting them, right clicking and going to Assign. This will bring up a window where you can choose what to assign.
I am not 100% sure on why you can't use fill down with resources but I imagine its because you are doing more than editing a value for each activity. You are linking an activity to a resource, each of which are objects in the database.

Is there a "fill down" function

I loaded one of my CD's into Itunes when I had no connectivity and want to fill down the genre, album name and artist.

No, but you can select multiple items, then right/option click and *Get Info* where you change common fields. If you ripped the CD with iTunes then when you have a connection you should also have a menu option somewhere to *Get CD info* (or something like it) which should fill in the missing data. (not in front of iTunes or I'd give you the precise command).
