Help with docx not translating from a PC to my IMAC

can someone tell me why when my friend who uses a PC sends me a .docx my Pages rearranges text boxes and jumbles up her document in email transactions. I was told when I bought my IMAC that Pages would "read" all microsoft word docs and would translate perfectly. Help! We are business partners trying to work together on flyers, proposals, etc.
(1st time I've posted so forgive me if my etiquette in posting is incorrect)

  • Is there a solution for graphs that do not translate from Excel to PDF?

    We are working on an Excel Spreadsheet with graphs but when we create a PDF of the sheet the graph does not contain the ledger or values. Is there a solution to this problem. We have tried both printing to PDF and exporting to PDF.

    Just a note: If you want to print the PDF to paper, it may still not print correctly even though it looks correct on the PDF document- the printed graph may flow off of the paper sheet.  When you click Print, a print dialog box opens with some options and a preview.  If the preview does not look correct, change the size option to "Shrink oversized pages".

  • Why won't cells autopopulate when using numbers on the ipad? Anyone have a fix? Have also created a dropdown menu, but that does not translate from excel to numbers either.

    Why won't cells autopopulate when using numbers on the ipad as they will in excel? Anyone have a fix? I have also created a dropdown menu in excel, but that does not translate from excel to numbers either.

    Glad you got it sorted out.

  • Need some help with downloading PDF's from the net.

    need some help with downloading PDF's from the net.  Each time I try to click on a link from a website, if it takes me to a new screen to view a pdf, it just comes up as a blank black screen?  any suggestions?

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Help with multiple nat translation on a Cisco Nexus 3548

    Hi All,
    I need a little help with a NAT configuration on a cisco Nexus 3548 version 6.0(2)A4(3).
    What currently have is as follows:
    internal network: 192.168.4.0/24
    nexus router (routerA):
      LAN Side: vlan104 interface 192.168.4.201/24
      WAN Side: Eth1/48 interface 172.24.101.2/24
      remote network: 159.43.48.32/27
      remote gateway: 172.24.101.1/24
    use ACL's to ensure that only specific traffic is allowed out and in.
    allow a specific connection from a different internal network (192.168.3.0/24) to talk to port 159.43.48.34:1025
    Clients on the internal network 192.168.4.0, need to be able to connect to services (port 14002, port 8101) running on 159.43.48.34, but they must be SNAT'ed through the WAN interface as coming from 159.43.65.81
    Currently we have this working but the internal lan clients need to know how to get to 159.43.48.34/27 and therefore we need to route this network in our internal network.
    What we really want is to do is provide an address such as 192.168.4.203 for internal clients to use for connectivity to the various services, and then this address would be SNAT'ed to 159.43.65.81 over the WAN. We still want to secure the traffic in both directions.
    In the past i've been able to do this with inside and outside nat's and i haven't had to configure an interface on the router for the internal address, it has just been "stood up" by the nat rules. For example (this is how i've done it before):
    LAN interface
    ip nat outside
    WAN interface
    ip nat inside
    ip nat inside source static159.43.65.81 192.168.4.203
    ip nat outside source static 159.43.65.81 192.168.4.203
    but, trying to implement this sort of config on the Nexus isn't working.
    I am wondering if the Nexus behaves differently than ios based routers.
    I'd appreciate any help to get this config working.
    Thanks in advance,
    Les

    Les
    The issue with an "ip nat outside ..." static is that from the inside routing is done before NAT.
    So what happens is that the destination IP is 192.168.4.203 and the Nexus will do a route lookup, see it is directly connected so it won't forward the packet to the outside interface so it doesn't get translated.
    If you enter "ip nat outside source static 159.43.48.34 192.168.4.203" then on IOS it adds a host specific route to the routing table for 192.168.4.203 as directly connected.
    So you do a ping from a 192.168.3.x client  it looks like it is working but actually the L3 device is simply responding and the packet never gets to the server.
    Apologies for the long winded explanation but NXOS might behave differently and I wanted you to know what to look for.
    So with IOS there is the "add-route" option at the end of the NAT statement and if you use this it would add a host specific route into the routing table like this -
    192.168.4.203 255.255.255.255 159.43.48.34
    this is a recursive route ie. the device must know how to get to 159.43.48.34 but your Nexus should.
    What the above does is make sure any packets arriving at the Nexus for 192.168.4.203 get routed to the outside interface and so are translated.
    So firstly see if that option is available with your NAT statement ie.
    "ip nat outside source static 159.43.48.34 192.168.4.203 add-route"
    if it isn't then try adding just the static statement without it and then have a look at the routing table. If it hasn't put in a host specific route showing as directly connected which it may not, as it may behave differently, then you can manually add a route ie.
    192.168.4.203 255.255.255.255 <next hop IP>
    note that the next hop IP doesn't have to be the server here it could just be the next hop from the Nexus switch. All you are trying to do is get the packet routed to the outside interface.
    Hope that makes sense.
    Edit - one thing I haven't tried is to use a different IP subnet for NAT ie. one that is still part of your internal range but unused and then having a route on the Nexus, in your case, pointing to the outside interface and you redistribute this subnet into your IGP. Then you add the NAT statement.
    What may happen is it still adds a host specific route showing as directly connected but it may not because the Nexus wouldn't actually have a directly connected interface for that subnet.
    I suspect it would though.
    If it did work then it would still mean you didn't need to advertise the public IP internally.
    If I get the chance I'll test it later today.

    I have not tried deploying this to staging since the issue started as I'm a bit nervous of touching the staging/live environment until this is solved.
    Removing the PlatformTarget element from the project file has no effect

    I have used Git to revert to the last working build to no effect (But I don't have the obj/bin folders in GIT), but it has atleast reset the project files etc.
    If I return msshrtmi.dll to the bin folder and switch the model and website projects to x64 there is no change
    If I switch both to x86 then I get an error Could not load file or assembly 'BekoModel2011' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.
    which is the model project - presumably because to run on my x64 machine I need the 64bit version?
    I really need to be able to debug and then publish some changes ASAP.

    Hi,
    Is it true that you're using IIS to host the application? Could you check whether the process is x64 or x86 one via task manager or config in IIS manager?

  • Installed CS5, now can't export from CS4! Help! "Could not read from the source..."

    I installed CS5 but completely ignored the fact plugins were required to be 64-bit. It'll be months before the plugins I require for my projects to be updated!
    So I continued editing in CS4 and when I attempted to export with the media encoder it halts instantly with an exclamation mark, the log says :
    "Could not read from the source. Please check if it has moved or been  deleted."
    And yes I'm not stupid, I did my research.
    I tried uninstalling CS4 and reinstalling. I tried the shortcut fix. I tried moving my cache files. My extensions are correct.
    Right now the only fix seems to be completely removing CS5 and CS4, After Effects just because they share files (?) and all my settings and plugins along with it! I'd rather NOT do that if I can!

    Good detective work, and glad that it worked. Now, your cure will be here for us to link to and for others to find. Your title will help direct others to this thread. Job well done.

  • Help with restoring Address Book from Time Machine

    Problem: I really, really need to retrieve someone's number. I know it'll be in an old version of my Address Book. I can see when I open time Machine that my address book is backed up, but no matter the date I go to, it says the Address Book was last modified in 2012! I know for a fact I've updated (and backed up) the Address Book many times since then.
    Whenever I try to restore the Address Book, I do Time Machine > Applications > Address Book > 'restore'. But whenever I do this, the mac refuses to open the restored Address Book because it's 'required by mac OS X'.
    I don't understand.
    Please, how on earth do I dredge my Address Book from the depths of Time Machine?
    Please help!
    M

    Hello mb9236,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with restoring a contact from Time Machine. 
    It sounds like you are trying to restore the Address Book application.  The Address Book application is just the application and does not include the content in Address Book. 
    Instead, you will want to open Address Book and then launch Time Machine and restore your contacts from there.  Use the steps below to restore your contacts form a previous date (in step one instead of opening Mail or Finder, be sure you have Address Book open and in focus):
    If you use Time Machine to back up your computer, you can easily bring back one or more items you’ve lost, or recover older versions of files you’ve changed.
    Open a window for the item you want to restore. For example, if you accidentally deleted a file from your Documents folder, open the Documents folder. If you want to recover an email message, open your inbox in Mail.
    If you’re missing an item from the desktop, you don’t need to open a window.
    Click the Time Machine icon in the Dock, or open the Time Machine menu in the menu bar and choose Enter Time Machine. If you back up to a Time Capsule or other network disk, a message briefly appears while Time Machine connects your computer to the backup disk.
    Use the arrows or the timeline along the right side of your screen to browse through all the snapshots and backups Time Machine created. Gray tick marks on the timeline represent snapshots stored on your internal drive (portable computers only). Pink tick marks represent backups stored on your backup disk.
    If you need more information about an item, double-click to preview it. The windows in Time Machine behave just like Finder windows, so you can open folders, click items in the sidebar, and use the search field in the upper-right corner of the window.
    When you find the item you want to restore, select it, and then click Restore. You can restore individual items, multiple items, folders, or your entire hard disk. The restored item is returned to its original location. For example, if the item was found in the Documents folder, it is returned to the Documents folder. Time Machine may ask if you want to re-create one or more folders in order to return a restored item to its original location.
    If an item you restore has the same name as another item on your computer, you’re asked if you want to keep the current item, the restored item, or both.
    You can use Time Machine from within many applications. For example, you can open Address Book and then click the Time Machine icon in the Dock to recover contacts you may have accidentally deleted, or open iPhoto and then click the Time Machine icon in the Dock to view past versions of your iPhoto albums.

  • Need help with upgrading my OS from 10.5.8

    Need help with upgrading my OS. I havent upgraded the OS since I bought it and have version 10.5.8. Now I cant download Mountain Lion- or even Snow Leopard. When i downloaded the first version of SL- 10.6.1 it says i have to have 10.6 first and I cant find that.

    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:

    Whilst Apple withdrew Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs.  You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

    If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
    UPDATE:
    OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:

  • Help with partial image loss from Viewer to Canvas

    Hi--I'm brand new to FCP and would really appreciate any help with my problem. I'm creating 2 second video clips composed of four still images (15 frames...or 500ms each) laid back to back, then rendered. Very simple, I know. The individual images are tiff files that look great in the FCP Viewer. But in the Canvas, part of the image is missing. Specifically, in the center of each image there should be a + sign, about 1cm square. This + should remain constant thoughout the short movie, while the items around it vary (from image to image). (This is a psychology experiment, and the center + is a fixation cross.) The problem is that in the Viewer the + sign is intact, but in the Canvas (and the resulting rendered video), only the vertical bar of the + is present! This is true for every individual tiff, and for the resulting movie. The items around the fixation cross are fine. My question is WHY on earth does the central horizontal bar get "lost" between the Viewer and the Canvas? I've read the manuals, but obviously I've got something set wrong. Also, there is a considerable overall reduction in quality between the viewer and canvas, even though I'm trying my best to maximize video quality. Everything looks a bit blurry. Truly, all ideas are welcome. Sorry if it's obvious. Thanks.

    steve, i'm viewing on my 23" cinema screen. i read up on quality and know that this is a no-no; that i should only judge quality when viewing on an ntsc monitor or good tv. the problem is that i'll ultimately be displaying these videos on my Dell LCD, so i've got to maximize what i've got. thanks to the discussion boards i have a short list of things to try now. thanks!

  • Help with script to translate randomly-placed layer into specific coordinates.

    I have a set of images in a folder. They all have the same size (200px x 200px).
    I create a large blank document, and I'm making a script to put all the images in my large document as a series of layers.
    The idea is to make image1 align with the left edge of the document, and then have the rest of images follow to the right (imageX is X*250 pixels away from the left edge of the document). That way I would get a series of images that start at the left edge and go right, separated by 50 pixels from each other.
    My code is something like this:
    var folderPath=Folder("C:/bleh/images/");
    var images=10;
    var imagesWidth=200;
    var separation=10
    var newFileName;
    for(var i=0;i<images;i++){
         newFileName="image"+counter+".jpg"
         app.load(File(folderPath+"/"+newFileName));     //open the new image
         backFile=app.activeDocument;
         backFile.selection.selectAll();                 //select it's contents
         backFile.selection.copy();                      //copy them
         backFile.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);   //close the image
         app.activeDocument.paste();                     //paste the image's contents into the large document
         app.activeDocument.layers[0].translate(20,0)    // <---- THIS IS THE PROBLEM
    The problem is that when an image is pasted onto the large document, it seems that it aligns itself depending on the current view's zoom and seeing area. That means that each time the script is ran, the images will be pasted at different "global coordinates". This is a problem because the only way to move a layer seems to be with the layer.translate() function, which takes as parameters an amount in pixels to move the layer. I can't find anything that remotely looks like "align layer to the leftmost edge" or anything.
    I want to be able to translate them all the way to the left (and then translate them again in this manner: deltaX = i*(imagesWidth+separation)).
    So how can I find the gap in pixels between the left edge of the document and the edge of the layer/center of the layer?

    Here is the align method..
    align("AdRg");   // move layer to the bottom
    function align(method) {
    activeDocument.selection.selectAll();
       // methods:
       // 'AdCH' - center horizontal
       // 'AdCV' - center vertical
       // 'AdLf' - left
       // 'AdBt '- bottom
       // 'AdTp' - Top
       //  'AdRg' - Right
       var desc = new ActionDescriptor();
               var ref = new ActionReference();
               ref.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID( "Lyr " ), charIDToTypeID( "Ordn" ), charIDToTypeID( "Trgt" ) );
           desc.putReference( charIDToTypeID( "null" ), ref );
           desc.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID( "Usng" ), charIDToTypeID( "ADSt" ), charIDToTypeID( method ) );
        try{
       executeAction( charIDToTypeID( "Algn" ), desc, DialogModes.NO );
       }catch(e){}
       activeDocument.selection.deselect();

  • Help with removing pics/videos from my iphone?

    First of all hello
    I have an iphone 3gs and after taking a few videos and pictures the other day i got my son to show me how to upload them to the pc (fine) but somewhere along syncing them on itunes i have a new folder in my photo album under Camera roll were they have all gone but unlike my stuff in Camera roll there are no delete options?any ideas?
    Tried seeing if i could get into it from where it was created in itunes but not getting much joy.

    He probably created an album in whatever application you use on your pc for photos & then put a check in the appropriate box under the photo tab in itunes. Photo syncing is one way, computer to phone. You are correct in that you can't delete these photos directly on the phone, only the one's in your camera roll. To remove the pics & album simple "uncheck" them under the photo tab in itunes, sync & they will be removed from your phone, but not deleted from your pc.
