How to run Excel 2013 in MDI rather than SDI

Greetings All,
I am interested in knowing how to make all my excel documents open in one window like the Excel 2010 did in Excel 2013. I understand that SDI is the new way of opening documents for the ease of looking at documents with multiple windows, however, there
are those of us who prefer it all in one window.
Please fill me in on how to set that up by default for my Excel.
Thank you.

Windows button + R andtype "Excel /x" to run Excel in another instance.
Cheers,
Tony Chen

How do you highlight multiple documents rapidly, rather than having to click on the document and on "command" one at a time?

How do you highlight multiple documents rapidly, rather than having to click on the document and on "command" one at a time? Right now, when I'm trying to highlight documents to export, I have to click on each document individually. Is there a way to highlight one document while scrolling down the list until all desired documents are highlighted? I would like to rapidly be able to do this to save time when I am exporting or saving multiple files from my documents to an external drive, CD-Rom or cloud storage.

Does this involve iPhoto in some way?

When I view the music on my iPhone in iTunes, how do I view this by album, rather than in a long list of songs?

When I view the music on my iPhone in iTunes, how do I view this by album, rather than in a long list of songs? When I view the music stored on my iMac, I get a choice to view by Songs, Artists, Albums, Composers, etc. But I don't get any choice with the music on my iPhone.
Its really hard to manage the music on my iPhone. I want to quickly remove albums and add new ones.
Is there a solution that I haven't seen?

Create a playlist, add/delete albums and sync this playlist.
You don't need to manually manage the iPhone music to do this.

How can I use "t3://becluster:6001" rather than "t3://dcsv02,dcsv01:6001"

          I have 2 machines in a cluster (dcsv01 and dcsv02) (HP UNIX with weblogic server
          5.1 sp8) and 1 Windows PC with weblogic 5.1 sp10.
          I try to make a t3 connection between the PC and the cluster of machines.
          On the Windows PC I have the following configuration for the
          "c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\Hosts" :
          171.1.70.61     becluster
          171.1.70.62     becluster
          where
          "171.1.70.61 is dcsv01 and
          171.1.70.62 is dcsv02 "
          If I connect my PC to the cluster with :
          hp.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "t3://dcsv01, dcsv02:6001"); :
          I have a great failover mechanism : if any of the machine (dcsv01 or dcsv02) are
          down the requests are routed to the other one.
          BUT!! If I connect my PC to the cluster with :
          hp.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "t3://becluster:6001"); :
          I have a not great failover mechanism :
          say that my windows hosts file looks like :
          171.1.70.61(dcsv01)     becluster
          171.1.70.62(dcsv02)     becluster
          then if dcsv02 is down then all requests are routed to dcsv01 and that is fine.
          BUT!! if dcsv01 is down then I got on my PC the
          "Bootstrap unable to get a t3 connection to dcsv01" exception and failover does
          not work. (not the way that it does with t3://dcsv01, dcsv02:6001 )
          So how can I use
          "t3://beclsuter:6001" rather than
          "t3://dcsv01, dcsv02:6001" with the same failover service????

How to run Excel Macros using JDBC-ODBC

Hi,
I want to run the excel macros in the excel file, after I connected to excel file, using JDBC-ODBC bridge.
How macros treated here?
Help needed please..........
- Ramesh

How to run Excel Macros using JDBC-ODBCYou don't.
As my fuzzy understanding goes.....
Macros (excel, word, etc) run via a "OLE" extension of the script host system.
So the only way to run them is via the OLE interface. That has nothing to do with ODBC. You can write your own JNI to do that, or you might get lucky and find that someone else has written a java library to do it for you.

How can I download to the desktop rather than preview, preview is a nuisance

How can I download items to my desktop rather than "preview"? Preview is a nuisance.

You can set up a default download location through your browser(s) Preferences.
If you do not want Preview to open the files, do the following:
Highlight your file>File>Get Info>
In the Get Info window, scroll down to "Open with:"
Select the application you want to open the file with.
Click the "Change All..." button if you want to "Use this application to open all documents like this.”
==========================
Short cut:
Control mouse click (right mouse click if available), Open With...-> Other
Pick Preview on a PDF document, and make sure to check Always Open With before hitting Open.
Thanks to a brody for the above short cut.

How do you show multiple products horizontally rather than vertically with the module_productfeaturelist?

I am trying to have 3 to 4 featured products that share the same tag next to each other rather than stacked. Is there a way to do this by customizing the "List of Products by Tag" or is there another module I should be using?
What i am currently getting is this and I would like the side by side instead:
{module_productfeaturelist,featured,3,Weight,,true}

Your monitor would need an HDMI connection to hook it to AppleTV. AppleTV would need to be on the same network as the IMac, presumably wireless if you don't want to run cables.
You would then need to use Airplay Mirroring, and that requires reasonably modern Macs, see:
About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X
I don't know for certain but if you set up an automatic powerpoint slideshow you could probably export to an AppleTV compatible movie files, and then play that to AppleTV via iTunes as well, which ought to work with older Macs but video might need to be set to loop or repeat itself a lot.
If you want to use Airplay Mirroring buthave an old Mac, then AirParrot software has a demo, and some people find this ok.

How can I file at last location rather than location of current file?

I have Abobe Reader X. In the old Adobe, when I saved a file, it took me to the last folder I was in, not the location of the current file. Thus far, I have not been able to find out how to get Adobe Reader X to do this. I even asked work help desk for help and their solution to unclick 'Automatically save document changes to temp file' worked once.
Is it possible? This is what I want.
Example:
I open file that is saved at Y:Scanned Files and save it at
X:Dogs/Breeds/Hounds/Sighthounds/Basenjis. I open the next file that is at Y:Scanned Files and click on File:Save As/PDF and window opens to save at Y:Scanned Files rather than at X:Dogs/Breeds/Hounds/Sighthounds/Basenjis, where I just was. I want to save file at X:Dogs/Breeds/Hounds/Sighthounds/Afghans so instead of just one click, I now have to go through six. Now imagine you have 30 or 40 documents you have to save. That's minimum 180 clicks versus 30. A big difference. And if you multiply it further by daily and weekly, it's a lot.
How can I get Adobe Reader X to open the 'save as' window at the last location rather than the current file's address? I also have Adobe Acrobat, but can't figure out how to get it work in that either.
I do not like Adobe Reader X. Unfortunately, it got downloaded automatically at work.
Another complaint I have is when I have Adobe Acrobat open and I click on a pdf to open, rather than open in Adobe Acrobat, it opens in Adobe Reader X (which was not the case with the previous Reader). If I want to open a doc in Acrobat, I have to go to Acrobat and File/Open, which is a pain.
Another complaint is, why do you have 'save as' and then 'pdf' or 'text'? This is another time consuming click I have to make. Add it to the 180 I'm already making above and you can see why I'm extremely unhappy and frustated with this version of Adobe.
Please let me know if the above is feasible or not and if it is, how to do it. If it isn't feasible, please make the above adjustments to Reader Y and put it out pronto. Thank you.

How To Display Image Dimension in Pixels Rather Than Inches

I am using Photoshop CS3, which I'm still learning to use. I want to see an open image's dimension (W X H) in pixels in the image's window/workspace.
Right now, when I open a file it displays the file's Document Sizes in the lower part of the workspace (sorry, don't know the proper terminology). Selecting the arrow next to this currently displayed information, I can then select Show>Document Dimensions. However, it always gives the image's width and height dimensions in inches. But, I want is to see these dimensions in pixels.
How do I get the document's dimensions to be displayed in pixels rather than inches? Thanks in advance.

Oops! Sorry about putting this in the wrong forum. I'm using PS to edit images that I'm using within DW. Hence, my (temporary) confusion.
Anyway, yes, that solved my problem. I appreciate the quick response. Thanks!

How to store images as disk files rather than in iphoto db

Is there a way to make iPhoto maintain the images as disk files, rather than import them into iphotos massive database file. I would prefer to use iphoto to just store a link to the photo, rather than the photo itself. That way I can work with the image in photoshop or whatnot without having to jerk around with the iPhoto database/

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. No need to find a workaround. You can use Photoshop from inside iPhoto.
Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.

This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

How do you organise artistes by surname rather than forename?

How do you organise iTunes library by artistes surname rather than forename?

This requires a fair amount of work so you might want to consider how many artists you have before you decide to proceed.
For each of the fields Artist, Album Artist, Album, Composer and Show there is an associated Sort field. When the main field starts with A, An or The, iTunes auto-populates the sort field so that, for example, The Beatles sort under B as Beatles.
Say you want David Bowie sorted under B instead of D. The easiest way is to select a single track of his from the Songs or a list view, edit the sort fields where appropriate to Bowie, David and press OK, then right-click on the track and click Apply Sort Field > All Matching Fields.
Repeat for each artist.
If you enable the column browser you can work systematically through the Artist/Album Artist column fixing one artist at a time until you reach the end.
I've done this for the authors of my books and audiobooks and also my classical composers, but I don't have the patience to do the rest.

Can I somehow teach my 6th gen Nano to tell me how far I've walked in miles rather than "steps," by telling it how long each of my steps is?

Using the pedometer in a 6th gen Nano:
Currently, it (very accurately) tells me how many steps I've taken when I go for a walk. Works fine.
Meanwhile, on my own, I carefully calculated how far each of my "steps" is (2.231 feet/step, in case you're curious).
Thus, after each walk, I multiply the number of steps I've gone by 2.231 to get the number of feet I have traveled, and then divide by 5,280 to get the exact distance I've traveled in miles.
While this system works fine enough, I'd like to avoid having to do a bunch of arithmetic after each excursion. So I ask:
Is there any way to input into the Nano the exact distance of each of my personal steps, and then have the Nano automatically display to me the distance of a walk in mile units of measurement, rather than (or perhaps in addition to) simply the number of "steps" I've taken?

I am working with the very same concept for my project and the auto fade in and out has messed everything up. If I hear or a fix I'll be sure to reply here to let you know!

How can I sent photos as attachment rather than embedded in the email?

For work, I need to send photos to my editor via email. In Mail, the jpgs automatically become embedded in the body of the the email, but my editor would prefer to receive them as attachments. Is there any way to send photos as attachments in Mail, rather than embedded email itself?

LaSylphide, the Mail forum shows up as one of the categories within the "Mac OS and System Software" forum. Click on whichever version of OSX you're using, and you'll see the list of categories.
There are several threads on this topic, and I've seen three solutions:
1. Check the "Send Windows-Friendly Attachments" box. Some people say it works, some say it doesn't.
2. Open Terminal and type:
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool yes
Some people say this works, some say it doesn't.
3. In Mail > Preferences > Composing, make sure "Message Format" is set to "Plain Text." Once again, some say this works, some say it doesn't.
Hopefully, one of those will solve your problem. There may also be a setting in your editor's email program that would solve it, but I'm assuming that's a Windows app and I haven't worked with Windows since 1993, so I'm no help there.
