How can I convert an old Numbers file to be compatible with the new Numbers version, without having access to the old?

I received a Numbers file created in iWorks version 8 or earlier, but only have the newest version of Numbers on my MacBook Air. I can't request the sender to reformat the file. Is there any way to convert the file so I can open it in the new Numbers version?

Are you sure you don't still have Numbers from iWork '09 on your MacBook Air. My Mid 2012 does. To be certain you can look in the Applications folder to see if there is an iWork 09 folder. You can also use Spotlight search to see if it will find that Numbers as well as the current one.
If you do find to 09 version: iWork '09 and iWork '08: File compatibility

How can I convert a PDF/A file into a PDF file with Acrobat Pro X?

How can I convert a PDF/A file into a PDF file with Acrobat Pro X? I'd like to modifiy the file which I have only as a PDF/A.

There's two answers if you want to modify the file:
You can temporarily turn off PDF/A Mode in your preferences, so they don't open as read-only. The problem would be if you do something to the file that violated the PDF/A standard, so you should always run a Preflight check afterwards to make sure.
If you want to remove the PDF/A header tag, use Preflight again - it's on the Print Production Panel in Acrobat X Pro (which may be hidden, use the options menu on the Tools Pane to show it). There's a profile called "Remove PDF/A information" - choose this and press Analyze and Fix. Nothing else about the file will be altered but when you save and reopen it all the editing tools will become active.

How do I convert a shockwave object file into a mp4 or avi video?

How do I convert a shockwave object file into a mp4 or avi video? Do you know of any software that converts that type of file?

The M4V format is a video file format developed by Apple and is very close to the MP4 format. The differences are the optional Apple's DRM copyright protection, and the treatment of AC3 (Dolby Digital) audio which is not standardized for the MP4 container.
If your M4V video is not unprotected M4V files and without AC3 audio. It may be recognized and played by other video players by changing the file extension from ".m4v" to "mp4".
So you can try to change the file extension and check if it works. If it doesn't work, try Leawo video converter(for windows or mac) and convert m4v to mp4 format.

ANY help would be appreciated.

Just because they are in mp4 format does not mean they are iPod compatible.
Files must conform to these standards:
H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per sec., Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48 kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; H.264 video, up to 768 Kbps, 320 by 240 pixels, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48 kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48 kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats

How do I combine more than 12 files into one PDF file?

How do I combine more than 12 files into a single PDF? That's why I upgraded to Adobe XI Pro.

Hi Marshall32,
If you have Acrobat Pro, you can combine more than 12 files by choosing File > Create > Combine Files into a Single PDF. The 12 file limitation is only imposed by Adobe PDF Pack online service. Acrobat itself doesn't have such a limit.
(If you haven't already, you can download Acrobat from here: https://cloud.acrobat.com/acrobat.)

What are people using to convert .3gp video files into something compatible with iMovie? Does Apple have SW to do this?

I am trying to find the best and safest way to convert .3gp video from my Blackberry into a file format that iMovie will recognize. I see lots of potential downloads, but I am hoping for some recommendations on which SW is most helpful. Thanks.

There is a free App called MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5. You can drag your .3gp into MPEG Streamclip. Then FILE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME.
For HD sizes (1280x720 or 1920x1080), choose Apple Intermediate Codec as the Video Codec.
For smaller sizes, you can also use Apple Intermediate Codec, but h.264 will also work and will give a smaller file size.
Then import this new file into iMovie using FILE/IMPORT MOVIES

How to specify the AI version which file shall be compatible with?

With AI 12.0.0 I need to save AI files so that they are compatible with AI version 10.
Adobe help Center says:
"Illustrator format options: When you save artwork to Illustrator format, you can set the following options: Version
Specifies the version of Illustrator with which you want your file to be compatible."
However, when I try to save the AI file I see no format options at all, so I cannot specify the desired AI version.
How do I get access to the saving options?
Arnold

In AI 12 (CS2), you do not
export, you
save as. (The 'export' dalliance was instituted for v11 and abandoned for V12 as too confusing.)
At the first save dialog (wherein you give your file a name), hitting 'Save' should get you to a second dialog. Choose the version you desire from the dropdown at top:

How can I combine 200+ XDP (XML) files into one spreadsheet or database for analysis?

Hi all,
I've got 200+ XDP files that were created by entering data into a LiveCycle PDF form 200+ times and then exporting the data as XDP 200+ times.
Now, I want to view all the data at once (for example, in an Excel Spreadsheet or database) so I can look for trends in the data or come up with a summary (for example, 180 of 200 responses answered Question 1 'Yes'). The form does have some image fields, but I don't need to see or analyse those fields.
I'm a bit of a newbie. Is there an easy way to do this? Thanks!
- John

I had a similar goal to gather data from a folder full of XDPs into a spreadsheet to track user behaviors, capture commonly entered values, and run reports.
If you are familiar with Python, I highly recommend creating a simple script using Python 2.6 and the elementTree (effbot.org) libraries.
Since I cut my teeth on this project, I found it helpful to break down the script's tasks into individual parts. The material and examples for getting a folder's contents, writing variables in lists, and using elementtree is as terrific as it is scattered in location and diverse in implementation.
1. Grab an xdp in your directory ( for book in path: )
2. Parse the xml by using the elementtree iterator
3. Assign your element's values to variables during iteration
if element.name == 'dataNode':
variable = element.text
4. At the end print your variables with deliminators between each (I used a pipe "|" because commas were commonly used in our forms)
print "%s|%s|%s|%s|%s" % (currentFileName, variable1, variable2, variable3, variable4)
Once you are happy with the data printed out to your console; and each row corresponds to a xdp, stream the output to a file and import that file into Excel in a CSV-style text import (specifying your deliminator during the import process)
so if your script that does the above is called "xdpGrabber.py", run:
$ python xdpGrabber.py >> xdpSpreadSheet.txt
and open xdpSpreadSheet.txt in excel.
There are some gotchas here - repeating nodes can be tricky, and heavily nested or scattered xml structures will add much more complexity to the script. However, if you are only looking for certain fields that always come in the same order when reading the xdps from top to bottom you can get them using simple "if element.name == 'stuff'" references in the order they appear - as elementtree parses from top to bottom.
If this is appealing to you, I suggest you run one of your sample xdps against the example script given here: http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2003/02/12/py-xml.html
I used Python 2.6 and elementtree on a windows XP laptop. I would routinely create spreadsheets from 3000+ xdps, each with 50-100KB of data, in under 15 minutes. I'm guessing the real bottleneck is streaming the output to disk. There isn't much out there that can compete with elementtree for speed reading xml!
If you need some assistance getting started feel free to reply here or message me for an example script.
Good luck!

How can I convert the old AppleWorks files into a modern useable format?

I've been using Mac computers for many years. The most important application (to me) was AppleWorks. But now I have learned that if I upgrade
to Lion all my Appleworks files will be lost. I have searched in many places for the "How to convert AppleWorks files to some format that WILL
be supported by Apple. I see no information on the Apple website and when I speak to a support person, I am always told that AppleWorks is
so very old, it was not included in their training so they cannot tell me anything. The little bits of advice I did get caused all my 20,000 AppleWorks
files to be moved into my LaCie terrabyte external storage file, and at the same time the old files remain in my Macintosh Hard Drive. But in both
places, those files cannot be read any more, and the nicely organized work I had done, was all gone. I mean - my AppleWorks files were always
grouped by folders into special interest sections. Now those folders don't exist and everything is in disarray - and unreadable. The titles of each
file is now greyed out. I have tried
to make the transfer in Bento3 but mostly in iWork06. I was told by Apple staff NOT to buy a higher iWork such as 09 because they are too
far removed from the old AppleWorks to be able to do anything with it. So I've stuck to iWork06 with no success. Also, I went to my favorite
privately owned Apples store and found all their instruction manuals and DVD application files MISSING. Their shelves are empty. I was told
the new way is to order off the internet but....I'd far rather go into a shop and see all they offer for sale. If I had gone there to buy ONE item,
I'd drive away with THREE items, because getting my hands on items was the important way to understand what the value and purpose
of that item is.
To summarize: I have installed iWorks06 with no written information about it. I have iWork08 with an instruction book which never never
mentions AppleWorks, so I have not installed iWork08. I have Bento3 installed, but no instruction book. So I haven't learned or tried anything
because it too never speaks of AppleWorks transfer. Some of my AppleWorks files are extremely important to me. Not just personal or
social but BUSINESS! I won't be able to answer the tax man should he come a-knocking on my door. HELP!!

So what kinds of files are they? Word processing docs, from the painting Appleworks app, or spreadsheets?
This is how I've handled it:
Anything word processing: should be able to import them (drag them in or import) into Pages. Worked here.
Spreadsheets: Used File > Open to open an AW spreadsheet. Needs a few adjustments, but I was able to tailor Numbers to get my spreadsheets the way I wanted them. Just experimented for a while with a non-essential spreadsheet until I figured out what to do.
Painting: That is the one I used the most (and continue to do so): Cannot be read by any iWork. If your doc is a finished product, simply save it as a .pdf or .jpg and then you can drag it into Pages. If it is not, then you are out of luck. I am keeping a partition with a bootable Snow Leopard system with Appleworks on it in order to be able to keep creating my stuff because I've not been able to find a somewhat equal substitute.
So, keeping SL on a partition and/or an external drive is one option if necessary.

How to download & convert .f4f video streaming files into flv/mp4 files

Below is the website for which I am asking this query
http://www.startv.in/show/devon-ke-dev-mahadev/352
These are .f4f videos which I can view online.
I am not able to download & play them in their original format.
I also would like to download & play them either as flv / mp4 files.
Kindly provide a solution.
Thank you.

According to Adobe, F4F file is Flash MP4 Video Fragment created and used by Adobe Media Server for HTTP Dynamic streaming. As F4F files are separating video clips and F4F is not a so common video format, it is incompatible with most video media players, portable devices or editing software.
To improve the compatibility, it is a quite good choice to convert f4f to a more popular video format like convert F4F to MP4, convert F4F to AVI, convert F4F to FLV, convert F4F to MP3 and etc. The following article will show you a professional F4F Converter and a step by step guide on how to convert F4F video files on Mac or Windows.
