How can I import an excel sheet and have it be functional in iOS Numbers?

Pretty much exactly as title.  To summarize, I'm a kinesiologist and I've developed a pretty complex spreadsheet that enables me to program exercise prescriptions on the fly but I want to be able to take it with me more portably on my ipad air.  Unfortunately when I load the spreadsheet into numbers it wont recognize any of the drop down menus that are coded into the excel spreadsheet on my macbook.  Help? Thanks,
Paul

My apologies. Data Validation Tool didn't click at first. There isn't a data validation tool in numbers per se, but you can limit input in many cases using the cell formatting tool: http://help.apple.com/numbers/ipad/2.2/#/tan23393f3a
Cells set up using Data Validation may very well not retain the Data Validation settings when converted to Numbers for iOS. The two formats seem to use different mechanisms to achieve this. Meaning that 1) you would likely need to re-format these cells once you have the spreadsheet in number, 2) if you export the spreadsheet to EXCEL, the drip downs may likely not work, leading to 3) if you intended process is move the file back and forth between Numbers and Excel, you may be in for a bit of grief.
If you intent to simply leave the file in Numbers, you the link above to see how you may wish to format those cells. I think you will be able to achieve what you are looking to do.

  • How can one  read a Excel File and Upload into Table using Pl/SQL Code.

    How can one read a Excel File and Upload into Table using Pl/SQL Code.
    1. Excel File is on My PC.
    2. And I want to write a Stored Procedure or Package to do that.
    3. DataBase is on Other Server. Client-Server Environment.
    4. I am Using Toad or PlSql developer tool.

    If you would like to create a package/procedure in order to solve this problem consider using the UTL_FILE in built package, here are a few steps to get you going:
    1. Get your DBA to create directory object in oracle using the following command:
    create directory TEST_DIR as ‘directory_path’;
    Note: This directory is on the server.
    2. Grant read,write on directory directory_object_name to username;
    You can find out the directory_object_name value from dba_directories view if you are using the system user account.
    3. Logon as the user as mentioned above.
    Sample code read plain text file code, you can modify this code to suit your need (i.e. read a csv file)
    function getData(p_filename in varchar2,
    p_filepath in varchar2
    ) RETURN VARCHAR2 is
    input_file utl_file.file_type;
    --declare a buffer to read text data
    input_buffer varchar2(4000);
    begin
    --using the UTL_FILE in built package
    input_file := utl_file.fopen(p_filepath, p_filename, 'R');
    utl_file.get_line(input_file, input_buffer);
    --debug
    --dbms_output.put_line(input_buffer);
    utl_file.fclose(input_file);
    --return data
    return input_buffer;
    end;
    Hope this helps.

  • How can I delete apps in iTunes and have that sync to my iPhone and iPad?

    How can I delete apps in iTunes and have that sync to my iPhone and iPad? I don't want to delete 3 separate times for each item. I just carefully chose 30-35 apps to get rid of via iTunes, hoping it would sync to my devices, only to find I have to repeat the process on my iPad, take notes, then repeat it on my iPhone. It wasn't always so tedious was it?
    Here's the "Help" I got from Apple. They even quoted my question back to me then proceeded to answer with something very different and completely missing the point.
    I understand that you would like to delete the Apps. I know how eager you are to get the required information and I will be happy to assist you.
    You can remove individual songs, audiobooks, and videos from your iPod, iPhone, or iPad. Removing an item from your device doesn't delete it from your iTunes library.
    To remove items from a device other than an iPod shuffle, first make sure that iTunes is set up to manually manage items.
    1. Connect your iPod, iPhone, or iPad to your computer.
    2. When the iPod, iPhone, or iPad icon appears in iTunes, select it.
    3. Unless your device is an iPod shuffle, click the Summary tab and make sure "Manually manage music and videos" or "Manually manage music" is selected.
    4. If the disclosure triangle to the left of your iPod, iPhone, or iPad (below Devices) is closed, click the triangle so that you can see the device's contents.
    5. Select the item you want to delete and press the Delete key.
    This was not helpful in any way and I am still unable to delete apps on my devices in a global, iTunes based way. Each device still requires its own independent process.

    Match was off.  I made all of the changes and then went through the "Turn on iTunes Match" option.  I now have deleted some tracks, edited the Metadata in CDDA, and then added it back.  This worked fine, but it is not a good solution.
    I just tried making some edits and use the "Update iTunes Match" and that seemed to work.  It looks like the real answer is that Match must be up and operational, then you can make changes and run the Update to incorporate the changes.  However, if Match has a problem then Signing Out and back in to your store account and going through the process of Turning On Match (were you get the questions, "Add this Computer to Match" will overwrite any changes. 
    Since this relies on the stability of iTunes, I won't be making a lot of changes between updates.

  • HT201150 How can I turn off this "feature" and have the power button bring me the shut down / restart / sleep dialog by default again?

    How can I turn off this "feature" and have the power button bring me the shut down / restart / sleep dialog by default again?
    With the position of the power button on the Retina MacBooks, any mistake turns off the screen in the middle of a presentation or any activity using a projector or big screen — a huge waste of time to wake up the display, enter password, have the projector sync back, watch audience disconnecting from what was being discussed, etc.
    This is very annoying, and seems to add to the increasing collection of options Apple decided to make by itself instead of allowing the user to choose.
    Come on Apple guys, I'm using my Mac because I want options and lots of preferences to tweak to my needs.
    If I needed the lobotomized version I'd be using my iPad!
    Any way (official or hack) to change this button back to its proper funcionality?
    Thanks!

  • How can i "add file to library" and have it be considered to be a Podcast?

    I went to a web site and downloaded a file to my C drive (MP3 format) that is not music. It is spoken, and is what i would call a 'Podcast', although i did not access it via iTunes as an official podcast. I then use iTunes "add file to library" function. But, it considers it to be music. I thought maybe drag/drop would work to let me add it to Podcasts, but it does not.
    How can i get this file which i have imported into iTunes to be treated as a Podcast? First, i'd like it to appear on my iPod with 'Podcasts'. But, more importantly, if i stop listening in the middle, i'd like it to restart from that point the next time i start it again. Now, it is treated by the iPod like music, and so it starts at the beginning each time.
    Thanks for your help! Tom.

    Is there a way that you can "subscribe" to something that is not in iTunes store? This is just a file on a site that is available for download.
    If not -- does anybody else know if there is a way to do what the original question posed, to have a file that you downloaded, treated as a Podcast instead of as music?
    Thanks, tom.

  • How can I import my Google calendar to iCloud calendar via web or ios?

    I've decided I want to move from contacts/calendar in gmail to icloud. I was going to do the same with mail, but it seems iCloud doesn't have the level of functionality that gmail does.
    My problem is that all instructions for importing my gmail calendar into icloud require some sort of desktop (I use PC) mail/calendar program. I don't use one. I manage my mail & calendars purely on my iphone or on the website(s). How can I import my .ics file into iCloud calendar via either the iCloud web interface or via my iPhone?

    The only possible way I could imagine it might work ( can't guarantee it ) is as followed.
    #1 Your Google Calendar is synced with your iphoen and you go into settings to turn it off.
    #2 It will ask you: "What would you like to do with excisting local calendars on your iphone", you click keep them on iphone.
    #3 Now you sync your empty icloud calendar with your iphone and hopefully the local calendar would sync on your icloud calendar?
    Might work...not sure, play around with the settings in the iphone calendar app etc...

  • Version 10 doesn't work with a web site I use constantly. How can I download a lower version and have the app appear on my phone?

    Have been using a lower version of firefox on my samsung galaxy phone to access [email protected] for quite some time. Since the upgrade to 10.0, I receive a server error everytime I try to access. Want to download a lower version, but app doesn't appear on my phone. How can I download a lower version and get the app to show up on my phone?

    Mandel is referring to what is called a "User Agent Faker' which tricks the website into thinking it is a different browser or version than it actually is. I sometimes would use this on my iPhone when I wanted to visit the full website of a site I was attempting to go to & it would only take me to the mobile version or state it was only compatible with say Internet Explorer, simply turn it on & select the browser and details you want it to report and it will spoof that browser & you'll be on your way.

  • How can I make an Excel Sheet where I can tally my daily activities and make a graph of it?

    I want a simple excel sheet where in the columns I can have dates and in the rows I can have my activities and in the spaces between I can put a number like 1 or 2 or 5 indicating the number of hours spent that day on that activity.  Finally, I would
    want to be able to, using the hours data for the entire month for each activity, be able to create a pie chart breaking down how much time I spent on each activity.
    The issue is I do not know to rename rows and columns and I do not know how to format it all to ensure I can make a pie chart at the end comparing all of my activities.  
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • I cleaned up several albums in iTunes only to have Match wipe all of my changes out.  How can I alter things in iTunes and have the changes stay?

    I signed up for Match but when I added new albums, they failed to appear.  Ultimately I got a message to Sign Out and then Sign In to the Apple Store tab under iTunes.  I then added the computer back to Match.  It went through the process and uploaded the new albums (or matched them) but it also reversed hours of work I had done it editing my library and cleaning up track lists and song titles.

    And when will the Cover Art issue be solved???
