How can I move columns in Numbers without distorting the formula in other cells?  In Excel I can cut and paste entire columns and the formula in other cells adjusts accordingly.  When I do it in Numbers, the formula messes up.  How can I do this?

How can I move columns in Numbers without distorting the formula in other cells?  In Excel I can cut and paste entire columns and the formula in other cells adjusts accordingly.  When I do it in Numbers, the formula messes up.  How can I do this?
For example: I have formulas in columns D and F that relate to columns C to CU
If I want to move one column from one position to another (say S to T), the formula loses the colums that was moved, i.e. it doesn't recognize it has moved, rather sees it as deleted...  How can I do this without distorting the formula?

Thanks for the feedback.
If I often urge askers to look at the available resources, it's because  a large range of questions asked in the forums are already answered in these documents.
As they are PDFs, they are easy to search in.
CAUTION
Download them while they are available.
Given what is delivered with iBooks Author, I'm afraid that we will not get such easy to use documents.
Searching infos in the  iBooks Author documentation available on line is awfully cumbersome and a lot of embedded links are wrongly flagged this way. In the Help files they aren't links but underlined strings.
It seems that the tool used to generate the web pages was wrongly configured.

  • I want to take a voice memo off my iPhone, put it into iTunes Library and convert it to an .mp3.  How do I get the voice memos from my phone?  I can't seem to move them out of the Devices folder, no matter how much I try to copy and paste or drag and drop

    I want to take a voice memo off my iPhone, turn it into and .mp3, and email it.  My iPhone shows up under "Devices" in my iTunes but doesn't allow me to move the voice memo files I see sitting there into my Library no matter how much copying and pasting or dragging and dropping I try to do. 
    Also, I need to convert the file to an .mp3. 
    How come no voice memo files show up when I go into my iPhone via My Computer?  All it shows are the videos and pictures in the DCIM folder, but not the voice memos.  Is there another way to access the voice memos other than through iTunes? 

    Email it to yourself, then save the file and then see if you can convert it to MP3.

    how do I move around in mavericks without a scroll bar?

    I just drag my fingers up and down my Trackpad.
    If you have a scrolling mouse, you can use that, too.
    Finally, if you want the scroll bars to show, turn on that option in the General System Preferences.

    can't drag clip in expert without distortion of interface
    What's wrong?

    ARBY-77
    In what way are you distorting the interface in this task?
    Are you referring to media already placed on the Timeline being disturbed when you drag a file to the Timeline from Project Assets? Or, maybe audio file already on the Timeline breaking up when you drag a file from Project Assets to the Timeline?
    If so, please hold down the Alt key of the computer main keyboard as you drag the file in place on the Timeline.
    If other than the above, please supply additional information for us to help you.
    Thanks.

    Next time, you can use the Text Wrap function, so you don't need to manually wrap the text.

    HELP. Window pops up on Firefox browser that says JavaScript Application, and under that it says 101. There is an OK bitton. when I click OK, up comes the window again. Then after hitting OK again and box goes away, when I move my mouse the box comes up identically again. I even called Apple support. They tried things; told me it may well be some set'''bold text'''ting in Firefox Preferences. This started right after Mac Update Install upon closing. Any help, please. My browser is totally (obviously) stuck in this loop!!! [email protected] jason

  • How do you cut and paste tables in and out of Excel from either Mail.app or Outlook 2011?

    When I try to cut and paste a table generated in Excel for Mac into the body of an email the formatting holds but when I send the table is reduced to one column. Same is true for copying from incoming mail into Excel, when I paste into Excel it is reduced to one column rather than keeping the table format. I have tried using mail.app and went out and Outlook 2011 and both programs have the same issue. The reformatting also happens when I forward an email received from a coworker that contains a table, not just on cut and paste operations.
    I need to do this regularly and right now my only option is using my old PC where the cut and paste function keeps formatting between Excel and Outlook just fine. Attaching a pdf or excel file is not an option. There has to be a way to maintain the formatting and being able to extract the tables keeping them intact. Please let me know if you have a solution to maintain this formatting within email programs. Thank you in advance.

    Selecting all does not help - the issue is I need a table within an incoming email to be moved to excel, edited and then pasted back into a new email. "Select All" picks up the email headers, signatures, any messages around the table etc so that doesn't work. Also, as pointed out above Excel doesn't have a select all feature to get the tables back into the body of an email.
    I just tried again going from Excel into Outlook 2011. No luck. All one column down the left side of the email. All columns are removed and text crammed into one column. Just to check I cut from one Excel document and pasted into another and it retained all formating just fine. It is only in and out of Outlook that seems to be the issue.

  • How to store movies on Apple TV without keeping them in the iTunes library

    I'd like to know how I can store movies on the Apple TV without having to keep them in the iTunes library. I'd like to use the 160Gb of space on my Apple TV without having to use the same space on my nearly full MBP hard disk !
    Thanks in advance...

    The idea of storing songs, movies and photographs on the ATV is to allow the end-user to turn off their computer and just use the device like a stereo/video component.
    Ah! Of course... I wasn't even considering this b/c I'm one of these people who almost never has his computer off b/c I work from home and also do a lot of web surfing, etc. but obviously many many people have the computer shut off much more often than it is on.
    So, alright. I see why the hard drive is there... it just seems so tempting for it to be able to be more of a stand alone device, more like another computer with iTunes on it rather than like a big iPod that sits under my TV. I guess I'll file that away in my tech wish list...

  • Can anyone describe how to cut and paste table columns in Data Modeler?

    A number of times I have tried using the copy and paste columns functionality in Data Modeler, but in all circumstances when I've copied a set of columns from a table (by highlighting the column set and pressing the copy columns button), opened a new table, and pressed the paste columns at the end button, nothing has happened. is there some unintuitive thing that I need to do?

    Ok, thanks.
    I see I left "Copy" out of the first reply I sent.
    1. Create a table or tables, say tables A and B.
    2. Expand the table which has the columns you want to copy, say table A, in the browser
    3. Shift (or ctrl) select the columns and select COPY from the context menu.
    4. Click in the table you want to copy to, say table B, in the diagram and right-click to use the context menu , select paste
    or select the table B in the browser and right-click, select paste.
    Are you using the copy in the menu?
    There was a bug in our Early Adopter that required you continued to hold the keys, but this has been addressed - you can read this thread to see how things were handled there: Re: Data Model: set of columns

  • I'd like to copy and paste a few Gigs worth of photos residing in iPhoto (ver. 5?) to a flash card - is there a simple way to do this w/o the issue of "duplicate" image numbers (when they are in fact unique images, but the translation is lost)... thx

    Tried doing this a few yrs ago and it was maddening, the receiving flashcard (or desktop) kept flagging duplicate image numbers and my only choice to was to delete one or replace, when - because they are unique images - I wanted all of them to be saved on disk (is there a way to auto rename to prevent this)??? Thx.

    Just tried to export photos and kept getting messages that a certain photo was corrupt or some such thing and then it stopped and did not continue with export. Frustrating as I spent hours moving ~1200 photos into 2 folders on desktop.  Tried doing a few at a time and one always stopped the entire export. Is there a way around this?  I.e., program so it exports photos that work, does not export those that are damaged?  Would be nice to know before the fact (in moving to folder) that photos have issues.  Thanks for any help - again!

  • Can i use copy and paste in callendar and if so how?

  • How do I cut and paste an appointment and change the appointment date?

    I have just moved to the Iphone 3GS after many years on Windows Mobiles so it's all new to me, but how do I cut and paste appointment information?
    I also need to be able to change the date of an appointment, but could not figure out how.
    Thx
    Bryce

    That's fine for changing an appointment date, but is there a way to "copy" an appointment and paste it into a new date so that the date of the original appointment isn't lost?
    For example, I have an appointment that occurs every 4-5 weeks, and we set the future date at our meetings, but I need to be able to go back and review earlier when earlier meeting dates took place to be able to track milestones. If I simply change the current appointment date I'll lose that history.
    In Outlook I can simply copy and paste an appointment into a new date, but I'd like to be able to do so from my phone for when I'm not in my office. How can I do this?
