I have a large numbers spreadsheet and I need to delete a lot of blank rows. Can I do this in one lump sum, or do they have to be deleted singularly ?

I have a large numbers spreadsheet that I inherited and I need to delete a lot of rows. Can this be accomplished collectively, or does each row have to be deleted one by one ?

You can delete multiple rows at once.
Hold down the command key and select the rows (which do not have to be contiguous) by clicking the row numbers on the left, then do this:

Recently I bought a MacBook Pro, the first time I entered a disc into the disc dive it wouldn't load up in Itunes - just kept freezing; and the disc drive made a lot of noise, how can I fix this?
I've had my mac for less than a month and for the first time I put in a disc. I can hear a laser sort of noise as well as the disc flapping about or a motor sort of sound? Sounds really bad to me :/
Someone please help!

Sounds like a hardware issue.
Did you buy the system from Apple? If so how recent is recent? If it is new you have 14 days to return it, not sure what the situation is with refurb systems. If it is over 14 days you should still have warranty support make an appointment at an Apple Store or contact Apple support.
If you bought it from someone other then Apple you will need to contact them.
good luck

TS1702 I am trying to make an in app purchase when I tap buy it tells me that I have already downloaded the purchase and then it tells me the purchase failed. How can I resolve this problem?

I Am trying to make an "in app" purchase when I press buy it tells me that I have already downloaded this purchase, then I get a message that the purchase failed. How can I resolve this issue?

When an app is downloaded under an Apple ID it is permanently tied to that Apple ID. The only option is to de
Ete and then download under your Apple ID.

I have a 2012 Macbook Pro and the GPU is causing issues with Yosemite. How can I resolve this issue?

I have a 2012 Macbook Pro and the GPU is causing issues with Yosemite. There are a number of issues I have run across:
If I have four tabs open on Safari then I start to get a flickering on the screen from the GPU refreshing
When I leave the computer alone for more than 20 mins the screen saver should start -- what happens is that the screen goes to black. When I move the cursor I do not get the login screen. I have to reboot
FireFox Web browser will not run
I get issues with the computer running very slowly
I have already turned off the transparency option in settings. Any ideas??
Cheers

Do you have more than one OS on the Mac?
You may want to look at something like http://bjango.com/mac/istatmenus/. This has a Free Trial window, but it is a commercial application. If there are any heat/sensor issues, this may help.
A SMC Reset or PRAM/NVRAM reset may also help.

I have Windows XP. Firefox updated to version 6 automatically even though I have it set to notify and ask. Also just automatically updated again. How can I stop this?

I have Firefox set to automatically look for updates then ask if I want to install them. I do this when convenient (may also need to restrict downloads on another machine when paying for Internet use by amount downloaded) Until recently it did just this. Firtefox 6 seems to have downloaded & installed (& lost all passwords & cookies) I assumed this happened when someone else was using the machine & said yes. It has now automatically downloaded the latest update automatically and the settings are still set to ask me first. What has happened & how can I stop it please?

-> click '''Firefox''' button and click '''Options''' -> Privacy -> History section -> '''Firefox will: select "Use Custom Settings for History"''' -> REMOVE Checkmark from '''Permanent Private Browsing mode''' -> place Checkmarks on:

I have motion on my lap top and want to share it with my i mac. Can i do this?

Hi ,
I have motion on my laptop and want to share it with my imac... can I do this?

You can use a flash drive and move it over from the laptop to the iMac, but I'd go to the App Store on your iMac and simply redownload it. It won't cost you anything since you've already purchased it (assuming you're using the same Apple ID).
That way it creates and installs and the necessary folders and content in the right places.
Now, to share projects - it's a little bit different.
1. You can work on the project on your laptop, transfer it to a flash drive, copy it over to your iMac, work on it, and do it all over again. Saving over the same file, or creating different versions, would be up to you - but it's the worst feeling to open a project and find out it's a previous version - and for whatever reason you won't be able to get to work on the latest version for some time.
2. Skip the flash drive, and use AirDrop from a Finder window to wirelessly transfer the files.
3. I've found the easiest way to do this is to create a Dropbox account (if you don't already have one) install it on both machines, and save your project to the Dropbox folder. You avoid all the hassle of the other two methods - you just need to have access to the Internet for the files to sync.
It's worth noting, when you're transferring your project - there's a .motn file, and usually a corresponding folder for the media if you decided in the preferences to have Motion copy all the assets to the folder, rather than having them all over your computer. Without them consolidated, you can have broken links, or missing media as I believe the official Motion terminology is, if you ever move a used file from the location Motion thinks it should be. Especially if you're going between two computers, it'd be best to let Motion consolidate all the media into one folder - as the file paths could end up different on the two machines.
I did not expect to write this much haha — but I hope it'll let you avoid future headaches!

Hi, hopefully you guys can help me out, I just
purchased a G5 iMac to replace my aging dell desktop,
and now i'm more or less completely os x dependant
(I've had an ibook for a few months now). Anyway, I
have a few questions:
1. Does anyone know of a (free) mail notifier tool,
that will alert me when I recieve new pop3 mail? I
used to use AIM for this in windows
The built in email program does sound an alert for new messages.
2. Anyone know of a good (free, again) IRC client?
iChat works well.
3. I noticed earlier that my screen was flickering,
it seems to have subsided for now, but is that normal
to encounter in a new display? It wasn't really bad
flicker, but I could see it.
No idea.
4. I leave my desktops on 24/7x365, will that be a
problem with this iMac? Display shuts off of course
after 30 mins
You could set the iMac to go to sleep after non use. My Macs are
always sleeping when not in use, waking them up takes seconds.
Unlike windoze, never knew if it would be locked up or not.
5. Should I get the extended warranty? I'm usually
against them, but I am expecting this computer to
last me at least 3 years (for $1300 it better!)
before I upgrade, as I got that much out of a Dell
and from what I understand, Mac's do not age nearly
as fast as Windows pc's.
It is well worth the cost. Never know what might happen. Also
it is good insurance for future upgrades. I traded in my G4 tower
purchased two years ago for 75% of what I paid for it. Apple care
transfers, giving the buyer the remainder of your warranty.
Thank you for any help,

How to put continuos (desired format) of dates in numbers spreadsheet and how to do it? please reply asap i need it..

how to put continuos (desired format) of dates in numbers spreadsheet and how to do it? please reply asap i need it..

This is the definition for "continuo" from Apple's dictionary:
continuo |kənˈtinyəˌwō | (also basso continuo) noun (pl. continuos) (in baroque music) an accompanying part that includes a bass line and harmonies, typically played on a keyboard instrument and with other instruments such as cello or bass viol.

Hi, I would like to create a database from my numbers spreadsheet and create reports (like SQL). Is there a way?

Numbers is a lightweight spreadsheet. If you know sql you will know that it can handle many queries and is a real databases that can handle many thousands of records. Number is not the correct tool. You can make something that does something like a query but it is not truly a query.
Can you share anything about the specific application and how much information there is in each record? How many records (rows)?

I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong. How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong. How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

If I understand you correctly, when you enter a date in the Adjust Date and Time window, the picture does not update with the date you enter. If that is the case then something is wrong with iPhoto or your perhaps your library.
How large a date change are you putting in? iPhoto currently has an issue with date changes beyond about 60 years at a time. If the difference between the current date on the image and the date you are entering is beyond that range that may explain why this is not working.
If that is not the case:
Remove the following to the trash and restart the computer and try again:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.iphoto
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iPhoto (There may be more than one. Remove them all.)
---NOTE: to get to the "home > library" hold down option on the keyboard and click on "Go" > "Library" while in the Finder.
Let me know the results.

I lost my phone, I don't have internet on my phone and I need the serial number to track it

I lost my phone, I don't have internet on my phone and I need the serial number to track it.. I just have my number and the company service.. Is it possible to know it with my apple ID?

From Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product:
... Although Apple does not have a process to track or flag lost or stolen product, you can use My Support Profile to find a list of serial numbers for items purchased or registered with your Apple ID.
Try that too.

Serial numbers for older versions do not work across platforms.
At one time, when the product was current, you could get Adobe to switch you to the other platform, but I don't know whether Adobe will do that for old versions. I do know it's not going to work if you try to use your Windows license for a Mac installation.

I am trying to print redplum coupons and I can't, help. I have updated java, adobe flash, and made sure my printer was set on default. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I have contacted redplum and no one will help.

I am trying to print redplum coupons and I can't, help. I have updated java, adobe flash, and made sure my printer was set on default. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I have contacted redplum and no one will help.

No Apple response??? Redplum/Valassis will not help either. I searched, using the cups error message and though it is Unbuntu, same error so maybe useful...only problem: details would not display unless I join Unbuntu forum. What a pain to do anything with my Mac or find any help. I honestly regret buying this buggy OS.
Anyway, here is what I found, FYI:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=483415
As the old saying goes: when in doubt, consult the manual. The problem appears to be that I added the printer using the KDE Add Printer Wizard. It was automatically given a "socket" URI instead of an "lpd" one. When I:
- altered the printer settings at http://localhost:631 (the CUPS admin page) as instructed in the manual for the printer, and
- copied the PPD file into a second place on the hard drive (as instructed on ubunutuforums, see the link above)
..everything started working.
It's still slower than windows, but I can live with that
Probably a simple fix. Change the socket I.P. to match the printer I.P. like this:
socket://192.168.1.86:9100. The thing I'm concerned with using socket:// is that AFAIK the printer I.P. must not change. In my case I'm able to assign a static I.P. address to the printer but it's something to consider.
I found that the only thing I needed to do was change socket to lpd (and remove :9100 off the end as well). See Solving Ubuntu printer broken pipe problem (DocuPrint C525A) . BTW thanks for steering me in the right direction - very grateful.
Solving Ubuntu printer “broken pipe” problem (DocuPrint C525A)
Posted on November 25, 2008
Are you having a problem with your printer under the latest versions of Ubuntu (perhaps it worked under an older version)? Are you able to print short documents, but not longer, or more graphics-intensive, documents? (e.g. the unfortunate people at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=625493). Do they sit there as Processing for ages and then switch to Held? If you have the same problem I had the solution I tried may work for you too. Firstly, check your cups error log:
sudo gedit /var/log/cups/error_log
If you see anything like the following, the solution may be simple:
[Job 201] Unable to write print data: Broken pipe
PID 13359 (/usr/lib/cups/backend/socket) stopped with status 1!
System > Administration > Printing and right click on your printer, selecting Properties. Settings > Device URI
If you see something like socket://your_printer_ip_address:9100 just change socket to lpd and remove the :9100 off the end. Then click on apply.
Apparently lpd is a more modern protocol which works with most printers whereas socket is more raw (and potentially faster but riskier in a network situation). Somewhere along the line, the default Ubuntu/Gnome setup for networked printers shifted from lpd to socket. Some primitive printers will have benefited whereas a larger number of more modern printers will have suffered.
Please correct me if I am wrong (which is highly possible) but the underlying problem could be that socket may make the printer wait a long time for a large file to be processed ready for printing. Some printers, such as the Fuji Xerox DocuPrint C525A, may drop the socket if things take too long to start coming through.
Changing timeout settings might work but lpd is better than socket so it is the preferred solution in any case.
If this works for you, please leave a comment to let others know (ideally with a description of the printer and Ubuntu version). Printer may be relevant if it doesn’t support the direct stream protocol properly. NB I may take a while to let your comment through because of the volume of spam. Sorry about that.
Finally, thanks to sphilli8 for the steer in the right direction at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6245626.
