How to lock an equation in a cell so that it can't be deleted?

I made a basic spreadsheet to send to many people and everyone can edit it as they need to. How do I make it so that the equations in the cells do not get erased if a user clicks delete?

Hi Wayne,
If I was Gretchen I would want to be distributing this spreadsheet over iOS. Forms are made for this. You cannot modify any formulas from a form but they will update a locked table. Further, you cannot modify formatting from the form- if the form wants a date or currency or text that is all you can give it. It is like best practice with a tap to set up.
I worked for many years in a shop where the motto was, "There is a right way to do it, a wrong way to do it and the way we do it."
I do think tabbing into the "protected" cells would be a easy mistake for a careless inputter.

How to lock the size of front panel so that user can't see hidden objects?

For that you can lock the VI with a password

I'm also considering your advice to redesign it...That's a little pain though.

Hmmm, Thats a really good idea! a key thought for you:
Protect the user from himself! your exe should NEVER display the Front Panel of a non-running vi. That data can't be updated or renewed - it contains no information the user could possibly be interested in. Really, that's the mindset you need while refactoring the app! Some other RUNNING utility may need to display information simillar to that shown on the vi FP in question but "Dead Data" is about the worst thing you can give to a user. (I've had simillar "Face-Palm" moments - don't feel too bad)

When I set up email for the first time, I had to enter a 4 digit pin. Since then, every time I switch my phone on, I have to enter this pin. How do I remove or bypass the pin so that I can switch on the Iphone without having to first enter a pin?

Go to Settings>General>Passcode Lock>tap Turn Passcode Lock Off, enter your "pin".
Edit: Are you saying you are getting a prompt for your email pin, or are you talking about the passcode lock that appears when you turn the phone on?

I entered the incorrect password for my home wifi network and now I can't change it. How do I clear out the wrong password so that I can enter a correct one?

I entered the incorrect password for my home wifi network, and now I can't change it. How do I clear out the wrong password so that I can enter a correct one?

Settings > wi-fi then tap on the little blue arrow next to the network you want to change. You have to tap on the blue arrow and not on the name.
Now at the top tap on "forget this network".
After that, the iPhone will think your home network is a new network and will ask you for the password to connect.

Hi there apearsal,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you’ve purchased movies with your Apple TV and want to know how to download those movies to your iPad, so that you can watch them later without a Wi-Fi network connection. Take a look at this article, it’ll walk you through the process of downloading purchases:

How do i save my document on pages so that i can open it on other computers

How do I sav emy document on pages so that i can open it on other computers?

Well, that was the short answer, then I rethought your question.
Will the “other computers,” be Mac, or a mixture of Mac, Windows PC, and possibly Linux?
What application on the other computers will be accessing the Pages content created on your MacBook Pro?
Using the File export options I originally mentioned, you could save the files to iCloud. Then on the other computer, you use the web browser to sign into your iCloud account. When you click the iWork icon, the files that you saved from your MBP will be there. You can then right-click on the file you want and a download option exists.

What generation iPad do you have?
The First generation iPad cannot be updated past iOS 5.1.1
However you should be able to get the last compatible version of the iBooks App by tapping on the install button.
You might need to download first to a computer running itunes or a device that can take the newest version before you will get the option for the last compatible version.
