How can I delete templates on numbers?

First visit to Apple Support Communities - I have downloaded data from financial institution which includes the date formated, for example, Nov 6, 2012 after the spread sheet is opened with Numbers.  Using the inspector > cell > date > format "01/05/09 " , the cells in the spread sheet with the dates all become "01/05/09" . . .  and not "11/06/12".
I am concerned that I have set up a bad templete dictating this erroneous result and would like to delete the templete.  Please advise on this point.
Any other suggestions would be welcomed.

Hi papa T,
I doubt that a 'bad template' is the cause of this strange issue.
Leaving that aside, here is the path to deleting templates that you have created and saved:
Close Numbers. Go to the Finder.
In the Finder, press the option key, go to the Go menu and choose Library.
This puts you in your user Library—note that OS X maintains several Libraries, one for itself and one for each user account on the computer.
From your Library, open:
Application Support > iWork > Numbers > Templates > My Templates.
In My Templates, select one or more templates, then press command-delete to move the selected templates to the Trash.
Empty the Trash to permanently delete these templates (and anything else that has been moved to the Trash).
Regards,
Barry

  • How can I delete templates from MY TEMPLATES in Pages?

    How can I delete templates from MY TEMPLATES i Pages?

    Pages stores those you created & saved as templates in (your account) > Library > Application Support > iWork > Pages > Templates > My Templates. The user's Library is hidden in Lion & Mountain Lion but it is easy to open. In Finder, hold down the Option key while clicking on the Go menu & your user Library will appear about halfway down the list. Or you can choose Go to Folder from Go menu in Finder & paste this line in the box:
    ~/Library/Application Support/iWork/Numbers/Templates/My Templates/

  • How can I delete my old numbers on Caller ID?

    Hello, I'm trying to delete my old numbers on Caller ID,
    some can be but some cannot be deleted.
    With numbers which cannot be deleted, there is this sentence;
    "Registered to your device"
    and "delete" link is gray, I cannot click it.

    I have tried as well to delete an old number that I no longer use or have but the delete key on the website is grayed out.  Is something wrong with the site or how can this be deleted.  I currently have bought two skype numbers.  The third on was an old number.

  • How do I delete templates in Numbers?

    I have several old templates saved in my numbers program and cannot figure out how to delete them. Help!

    Hi medchanic,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities. Your profile does not show your products, so I do not know if you are using Mac OSX or iDevice iOS operating systems. As this is the Numbers for OSX, I shall answer for OSX.
    Numbers stores your custom templates in the My Templates folder. To find that folder, use the Go menu in Finder and hold down the option/aly key. Library will appear in the menu choices. Choose Library then navigate to:
    Application Support > iWork > Numbers > Templates > My Templates
    The path is shown at the bottom of my Library Folder window:
    Click on an unwanted template and send it to the Trash.
    I do not know why the operating system hides custom templates. After all, they are my templates!
    Another way to control your custom templates is to open one in Numbers, change it, and then File > Save as Template... with the same name. That will replace the old template with the revised version.
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • I am trying to delete pages I have crated in numbers, but can only see them in print preview. Without print preview I do not see them. How can I delete these pages, but keep others before and after?

    Hi Crushed,
    Numbers doesn't have pages. It has a canvas that holds objects such as tables and charts.
    Drag the objects from the bottom of the canvas onto the white space above. That will reduce the number of "pages" (sheets of paper) that will print.

    I suggest you update your profile to show your current version of OS X. Click on "Your Stuff" at the top right of this page & choose profile (bottom of the list) then click edit.

  • How can I delete a template in i-Books Author

    How can I delete a template in i-Books Author.  Where are the templates stored on the computer?

    You can do the following to delete a template:
    Delete a custom template from the Template Chooser
    Click the Finder icon in the Dock and choose Go > Go to Folder.
    To open the Templates folder, enter:~/Library/Application Support/iBooks Author/Templates/My Templates/
    Find the custom template and drag it to the Trash.
    I found that information on support.apple.com at the following link: http://support.apple.com/kb/ph2762
    Hope that's helpful, I had the same issue.

  • How do I delete Templates?  I search for the templates with finder, in library, applications, logic, project templates. But, I can't find my templates there.

    Hi
    Note that in Lion OS, the User Library is hidden by default.
    Use the Finder:Go Menu (hold down Option to add the User Library to the menu).

  • I have a Ipad 3 and the numbers of emails does'nt delete how can I delete them it says that I have 13 messages and I dont have any

    I have a Ipad3, it is impossible to delete the numbers of emails, it says that I have 13 messages and I dont have any so how can I delete the number

    These could be older unread messages and they may be buried in sub-folders. Your best bet is to go to your email web interface on a computer and search for unread emails there.

  • How do you delete templates in Pages?

    How do you delete templates in Pages?

    Hi Lilly,
    If you mean "My Templates" they are in a hidden folder.
    In Finder, open the Go menu and hold down the option key (alt) in order to see the user library folder.
    Open the library folder and navigate to:
    Library/Application Support/iWork/Pages/Templates/My Templates.
    Select a template then drag it to the Trash (or command-delete).
    Having gone to all that trouble to find that hidden folder, single click to select My Templates folder, then
    Menu > File > Make Alias
    An Alias folder appears. Rename it to something such as "My Templates Pages alias" then drag it out of My Templates folder to somewhere convenient (maybe the Desktop will do for now).
    You can now close all those folders that you navigated through because the Alias (double click on it) is a quick way to go there again.
    Repeat this process for other iWork apps such as Numbers.
    Another way to manage your templates is to open one, make changes, then Save As Template with the original name of that template. The new template will replace the old one.

  • HT204053 I have two Apple ID's and want to get rid of one of them. How can i delete the extra one ?

    How can I delete an extra Apple ID ?
    I just want to have one only for my Iphone and for my Mac.
    Thank you for any advice.

    I went to the Apple support site last nite for a live chat.
    The tech there suggested 2 separate actions;
    Here they are, verbatum;
    # 1
    Go to,
    Store-ID-sign out
    #2
    Change the password to a random string of numbers and letters and set up the other account on both services.
    So...
    That's it. Neither suggestion worked for me so I'm going up to the apple store in Century City and see if one of the geniuses can straighten me out.
