I bought new apple labtop and I cant use my excel file from my Pc. Very large file. Can any one has any idea how i can use and edit my excel file on apple or if anyone has any alternative sudgestion?

If you want to work with a large Excel file, you probably need to purchase Microsoft Office 2011 for your Mac. There are other applications that can open and edit Excel files, but there are functions and features of Excel that don't always translate to other applications.
If you don't have Microsoft Office and want to try something free before purchasing anything, try LibreOffice:

What do you mean you cannot access it?
It will be wherever you put it.
Please explain.

So I had a large amount of music on my Iphone 4S, and so i bought a storage plan with 10 more GB's of storage. I went to sync the rest of my music, assuming it would now let me have it on my IPhone, but it said I still didn't have enough storage. Help?

You bought icloud storage.
This has nothing at all to do with the storage on your iphone. You cannot increase the storage capacity of your iphone at all.

Hi Edward,
You should still be able to manually manage the music on your iPhone within iTunes. Make sure that when your iPhone is plugged in, look in the Summary tab to see if “Manually manage music and videos” is enabled and you can even you turn off Automatically Sync when this iPhone is connected. Take a look at the first article below to give more information on that. As far as your other questions about calling someone, I have provided two options for you. If it is for feedback on iTunes, you can use the second link to give detailed feedback on what is going on. If you want to actually talk to someone, the last link has a list of numbers for you to call for any support or service that you may need.

Can I open and use a downloaded Excel Spreadsheet?

Can I open and use a downloaded Excel Spreadsheet?
<Re-Titled By Host>

LibreOffice will not run Excel macros (read below) without some work, it's not a good solution, I also do not think that the free online version of MS Office (comes with OneDrive) has VBA, so no macros there either.
Bottom line is if you want to run macros from Excel, you'll need Excel. Preferably the Windows version (the Mac version may be better than Pages, but it's a toy in comparison to the real Excel)
Macros in Microsoft Office and LibreOffice
With a few exceptions, Microsoft Office and LibreOffice cannot run the same macro code. Microsoft Office uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) code, and LibreOffice uses Basic code based on the LibreOffice API (Application Program Interface) environment. Although the programming language is the same, the objects and methods are different.
The most recent versions of LibreOffice can run some Excel Visual Basic scripts if you enable this feature at LibreOffice - PreferencesTools - Options - Load/Save - VBA Properties.
If you use macros in one of the applications and want to use the same functionality in the other application, you must edit the macros. LibreOffice can load the macros that are contained within Microsoft Office files and you can then view and edit the macro code in the LibreOffice Basic IDE editor.
You can choose to preserve or delete VBA macros
Open a Microsoft Office document that contains VBA macro code. Change only the normal contents (text, cells, graphics), and do not edit the macros. Save the document as a Microsoft Office file type. Open the file in Microsoft Office, and the VBA macros will run as before.
You may delete the VBA macros from the Microsoft Office file on loading or on saving.
Choose Tools - Options - Load/Save - VBA Properties to set the VBA macro handling of LibreOffice.

How Can I Open and Use Excel Spreadsheets on my Mac?

I am trying to find out how to work with Excel (.xls) files on my Mac. I have the latest updates on my OS but my Numbers is about 3 yrs old.
I am able to work with the file on the Forum website, make adjustments.. but that is discouraged. The owners encourage me to copy the .xls file to my computer and work with it there and finally submit it for critique.
When I copy the file to the Mac, it seems to come in as a Numbers file.. at least that's what it is when I open it. When I work with cells, none of the algorithms work.. IOW, nothing changes with the results.
What have I tried..?
I have put Open Office on the computer. That supports Excel files. But I guess my old mind doesn't know how to "import?" the .xls file on my desktop into OO. So, I have not been able to make changes. Possibly I am not seeing what needs to be done.
I have also clicked on the file icon. Right clicked on it and selected "Get Info" and said to open the file in Open Office. Nothing happened when I actually tried to open that file.
I'm at a loss and this is pretty important.
I'm quite surprised that Numbers doesn't seem to allow working with .xls files I'm hoping I'm missing something

Thanks for the rapid replies...
I have NO problem opening the files. As I stated in my OP, it is all about WORKING with the file. IOW, this is a file to help me brew beer with changes in equipment size/configuration.. or simply changing a recipe.
When I change the size of my brew kettle, the algorithms should modify parameters in different places to modify how much water I would have to use, how much boil off I should expect.. etc etc. Or if I want to modify the batch size of the brew from 20 gallons to 5 gallons.. when I imput that data, the recipe should change accordingly. When I do this on the forum site.. it works. When I import it the algorithms don't change the numbers.
What I get when I open the file, even as suggested by 'kkaufmann87" is that
"Unsupported formulas were replaced by the last calculated value".... which were the values I had when I copied the file to my computer.
Kolgrath. This question was suggested by another person on that beer forum.. and Google Docs will not work either.

I have been using Final Cut pro v6 without any problems but recently had to reinstall. Since then I can't open and view all my Quicktime clips. They appear white in timeline which means you can hear audio but not view picture. Any tips?

I have been using Final Cut Pro without any problems - v6 - for ages. I recently had a hardware issue and had to reinstall the software. Since then I can't open most of my QT clips in my fcp project. They appear as white clips - audio only no pictures. There are a few QT clips you can view as regular thumbnail images and they play ok. What's the issue? I have fcp v6.0.6 and QT v7. Any thoughts on what to do next?

Yes I did software updates which updated fcp to 6.0.6 and QT to version 7.7. That's as far as updates have taken me although i have requested daily updates. I forgot to say the clips don't play in QT view either. Again sound but no pictures when they are played.

I've had ELPH100HS for 2 years. Up until now, everytime I transferred pictures to my computer, a camera icon would appear when I connected the camera via USB to the PCU. But, recently, the icon is missing, but I hear the bleep (connecting sound) I always have. However, I am unable to transfer pictures to the computer. The message that keeps popping up is "support device not found." I can't find my discs or my manufacturer's book that came with the camera. What should I do? Thanks. RAY

I had Photoshop CS2 on my PC. The PC died and I switched to MAC. I have the Photoshop CS2 installation CD. When I insert the disc the file to install on Mac isn't there. Can anyone help???

My question is the subject

The Mac will not install a Windows program unless you actually have Windows installed on your Mac.
Even if you had a CS2 Mac cdrom, it's only supported on the older PPC Macs, not the newer Intel Macs.
If you want the latest Photoshop, the $10 monthly Photography Plan is the best way to go.
As for the Windows cdrom, Photoshop CS2's activation servers are closed. Your serial number and disc are obsolete.

Ibought an ibook by mistake. I wanted an audiobook. I only have an ipad so cannot read large book on it. Can I transfer it to a Kobo Vox? If not, how do I go about switching the ibook for an audiobook. I will pay the difference, no problem.

I bought an Ibook by mistake when I thought I was buying an audiobook. I only have an Ipod - can't read a big book like that on an Ipod. Is it possible to transfer it to a Kobo Vox? If not, how do I get hold of Itunes to exchange them (I will pay the difference)?

" Is it possible to transfer it to a Kobo Vox? "
No.
" how do I get hold of Itunes to exchange them (I will pay the difference)?"
There are no refunds/exchanges. You can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception: Click Support at the top of the page, then click the link under Contact Us.

I need to sort very large Excel files and perform other operations. How much faster would this be on a MacPro rather than my MacBook Pro i7, 2.6, 15R?

I am a scientist and run my own business. Money is tight. I have some very large Excel files (~200MB) that I need to sort and perform logic operations on. I currently use a MacBookPro (i7 core, 2.6GHz, 16GB 1600 MHz DDR3) and I am thinking about buying a multicore MacPro. Some of the operations take half an hour to perform. How much faster should I expect these operations to happen on a new MacPro? Is there a significant speed advantage in the 6 core vs 4 core? Practically speaking, what are the features I should look at and what is the speed bump I should expect if I go to 32GB or 64GB? Related to this I am using a 32 bit version of Excel. Is there a 64 bit spreadsheet that I can us on a Mac that has no limit on column and row size?

Grant Bennet-Alder,
It’s funny you mentioned using Activity Monitor. I use it all the time to watch when a computation cycle is finished so I can avoid a crash. I keep it up in the corner of my screen while I respond to email or work on a grant. Typically the %CPU will hang at ~100% (sometimes even saying the application is not responding in red) but will almost always complete the cycle if I let it go for 30 minutes or so. As long as I leave Excel alone while it is working it will not crash. I had not thought of using the Activity Monitor as you suggested. Also I did not realize using a 32 bit application limited me to 4GB of memory for each application. That is clearly a problem for this kind of work. Is there any work around for this? It seems like a 64-bit spreadsheet would help. I would love to use the new 64 bit Numbers but the current version limits the number of rows and columns. I tried it out on my MacBook Pro but my files don’t fit.
The hatter,
This may be the solution for me. I’m OK with assembling the unit you described (I’ve even etched my own boards) but feel very bad about needing to step away from Apple products. When I started computing this was the sort of thing computers were designed to do. Is there any native 64-bit spreadsheet that allows unlimited rows/columns, which will run on an Apple? Excel is only 64-bit on their machines.
Many thanks to both of you for your quick and on point answers!

Read very very large excel file into 2d array (strings or varient)

Hi all,
Long time user, first time poster on these boards.
Looking at the copius amounts of great info related to reading Excel data from .xls files into labview, i've found that every one i've found from various people use the ActiveX method (WorkSheet.Range) which two strings are passed, namely excel's LetterNumber format to specify start and end.
However, this function does not work when trying to query huge amounts of information. The error returned is "Type Mismatch, -2147352571" I have a very large excel sheet i need to read data from and then close the excel file (original file remains unchanged). However this file is gigantic (don't ask me, I didn't make it and I can't convince them to use something more appropriate) with over 165 columns at 1000 rows of data.I can read a large number of columns, but only a handful of rows, or vice versa.
Aside from creating a loop to open and close the excel file over and
over reading pieces of it at a time, is there a better way to read more
data using ActiveX? Attached is code uploaded by others (with very minor modification) as an example.
Thanks,

Hi Maddox731,
I've only had a very quick glance through your thread, and I must admit I haven't really thought it through properly yet. Sounds like you've come up with your own solution anyway. That said I thought I'd take a bit of a scatter gun approach and attach some stuff for you regradless. Please forgive my bluntness.
You'll find my ActiveX Excel worksheet reader, which may or may not contain the problem you've come across. I've never tried it with the data size you are dealing with, so no promises. I've also attached my ADO/SQL approach to the problem. This was something I moved onto when I realised the limitations of AX. One thing I have noticed is that ADO/SQL is much faster than AX, so there may be some gains for you there with large data sets if you can implement it.
I should add that I'm a novice to all this and my efforts are down to bits I've gleamed from MSDN and others' LV examples. I hope it's of some use, if only to spark discussion. Your ctiticism is more than welcome, good or bad.
Regards.

Large excel files won't combine to pdf in Acrobat X or XI

I have large Excel files (0.3 to 1.2 MB) that I used to combine into a single pdf. It will only work now on Excel files smaller than 1MB. This was working a few weeks ago. What happened? I have tried on computers that have both Acrobat X and XI (we have both scattered around our building).
Any ideas? Thanks.

FileOpen is a security add-on, which is needed to open some files. Not a part of Adobe software. Maybe you need to upgrade or report it: http://www.fileopen.com/

How To Split Large Excel or CSV Files into Smaller Files

Does anyone know how to split a large Excel or CSV file into multiple smaller files? Or, is there an app that will work with Mac to do that?

split [-a suffix_length] [-b byte_count[k|m]] [-l line_count] [-p pattern] [file [name]]
is a native Terminal command. Read up more on https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/ man1/split.1.html
I prefer to use gSplit which is gnu coreutils.
You can install gnu coreutils using homebrew.
