I have no idea how to set up a pie chart for tracking spending with categories
This is what I want to do to help me track my credit card spending.
I want to make a Numbers sheet where i can jot down how much money i spent on a item, and what category that item would go with (example, food, electronics, gas, so on).
and then i want to have a pie chart that will show much how much money i'm spending in each category and how much of a percentage of the total each category takes up of the whole.
I have no idea how to set this up in a sheet. I tried typing it in a few times and every time i go to make a pie chart, it never shows me any of the results i want to see.
can someone please help me set up a sheet to be able to get this information to display correctly in a pie chart?
Brad,
Create a table with the categories and the data (for now you can make up the data):
Now add a chart from the Charts menu in the toolbar:
Now click the "Add Chart Data" button just below the chart.
Now select data (from column B) in the table. Last trick is to click the menu at the bottom-left corner of the window and change the selection to "Plot rows as series" :
Now add formulas to the table to properly summarize the data from your data entry table using the sumif() function.

How do I set up my macbook pro where it mail that I delete off my iphone will be automatically deleted off my macbook pro and ipad? Be specific; I have no idea how to set up mail in IMAP. This is a mobileme account I've had since 2007 and is now set up with icloud, but for over a year now, no syncing (deleting) mail i've deleted off my phone.
Try this to change the deleted folder on the ipad to the same as on your mac

The steps are pretty much the same as the gmail account used in the instructions, you may also be able to refresh the email folder list on the mac -
Can I get rid of one ID? How do I do that?
one on my MacBook Pro
That's not an Apple ID. That is your admin account which you can view in System Preferencs > Accounts or Users & Groups.
If I switch from MobileMe to iCloud on my Mac (under the apple logo) will my devices work and sync in iCloud. I have no idea how I go 2 IDs
Just use your current Apple ID when you setup your iCloud account that you use for your devices.

I have no idea how to use the new "messages" instead of ichat
i have recently got my first macbook. it isnt the first time i used one. my friend has the macbook pro as well. she has the "ichat" app for connecting with her friends. but i have the "messages" app and i have no idea how to use it.. i cant find the buddy list to add friends... i dont know how to sign in to my account.. and when i try to send a message to someones id it says they arnt registered with ichat.. i have no idea what to do or where to begin!
Hi Alexaaa,
Open the Messages app and under the Messages menu go to Preferences>Accounts and set up your account using your AppleID and password.
Once you have your account set up, then open the messages window. Next to the Search window you will see a little square with a pencil in it, click on that to start a new message. The cursor will be in the "To" line, and at the end of that line you will see a ". Click on that, and your contacts list will come up. Find the contact you want to send a message to, and select either their email or their phone number to send a message. Type in your message in the little message window at the bottom and press Enter to send.
Hope this helps! Let us know if you have any other questions!
Cheers,

In Finder, Desktop, a zillion photos show . I have no idea how they got to the desktop but have not been able to get rid of them. They are listed as greyed out. ON the Desktop I tried dragging them to the Trash. If I try to empty trash, 'some of the items you are moving are in use by another application. etc.." and now, another, Copy "Preparing to undo "move to Trash".
Try an All Images Search:
In the Finder:
Command - f
Kind: Images
Size: Greater than 300kb (This is to avoid all the thumbnails, icons and so on.)
Set it to search the Mac.
As to why? The most likely answer is user error, I'm afriad. It does point up the importantce of always having a back up.

I bought a second apple tv and would like to control it with the remote app but cannot find a way to add a second device. Anyone have an idea how to do that?
I'm having the same issue and would like to get some help. I set up a second Apple TV in our bedroom and wanted to be able to control it using my iPhone like I do with the Apple TV in the living room. The new Apple TV is active on the network and I've made sure the same Apple ID is used for both the Apple TV as well as the Remote App on my iPhone. I'm just wondering what I might be overlooking.

i want to set it up live so we can use Mainstage as our in ear monitor system..
I have no idea how to even begin...
1.what do i need?interface etc?
2.do i need 2 computers? ive read people use 2 w/ midi controller send sound card to sound card?
3.best way to run it so it wont crash? whats best options to have in computer processor etc...
4. best way to start and stop tracks between songs with out using computer?
any and all help is very very very very appreciated!
thank you guys!"..backing tracks that goes to crowd
click track for drummer
piano notes in singers ears"
Ok, here goes - if I understand you correctly, you want to use Mainstage for these three functions, yes?
If so, here's one way of doing it:
First, yes, you need an interface, with quite a few inputs/outputs by the sound of it.
Within your concert template, create a new 'set' for each song. In each of these sets, create software instrument channels for the backing track (if you want to break you backings down into individual instruments and treat these separeately, you can - just create a separate channel for each). Load up the playback plug-in in each channel. These will be routed, by default, to the main outputs of your interface, which you route into your pa to send front-of-house.
Now the click track. The most reliable way to do this that I have found is to create an audio file of the click, and simply load it up on another playback channel. However, you now need to send this to a different output. Make sure the interface is connected, now click on the output button (the bottom one in the I/O section) and select a different output. Route a cable from that (on your interface) to your drummer's monitor. There are ways of creating click tracks within MS, but reading the discussions, it seems to me this is easier.
You need to make sure all the playback channels are synced and playing in the same group. Have a look at this thread, where I describe how:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2546658&tstart=0
Now the piano. Will you be using piano sounds from within MS, or external audio? Whatever the answer, the key is in the routing. Basically, you would have your output of the piano channel routed to the main outs (ie the same used for the playback tracks as described above) so the audience can hear. Now click on one of the 'send' slots, and select a spare bus. This will create a new aux channel over on the right of the mixer section of the MS edit window. In the output slot of this aux channel, select another, different output on you interface, and route this to your singer's monitor.
Now, go back to the original piano channel. Click on the send slot you've just created and select 'pre'. This means that the amount of the piano signal you send to the monitor will be unaffected by any changes you make to the main output level. You will notice a small rotary control next to the send slot. Probably best to turn this all the way up and then control the volume you send to the monitor using the fader on the new aux channel or the fader on the new output channel.
Wow, that's all done from memory, so apologies if it's not totally clear - come back to me if you're having probs.
To start and stop tracks, you can use a midi footpedal or send midi change messages from a keyboard. Personally, I use a GIO, which is set up to do that without too much input required.
The best way to make it a stable as poss is to minimise CPU load - do this by using as few plug-ins as possible, and by using aux channels for those that you do use, so that you only have to have one instance of each plug-in running, but you can route multiple channels to it (using the send buttons as described above - probably best to have a quick look in the manual for this).
Computer spec: - go for the best you can afford, but as you can see, I run a very basic macbook, and I get by ok (granted that I don't use any keyboard sounds).
No, you shouldn't need 2 computers.
There's a lot there, and I've only really skimmed it, but with a bit of experimenting you shouldn't have too much trouble. Best of luck. -

Why is there over ten thousand file in my "All My Files" on my new MBP. I'm very new at using ICloud. I don't understand syncing vs time vs time vs syncing! I simply have not idea how to manage my files now. I read short comments & how to's in the support sections, but nothing I've read so far explains"best practices" or turning iCloud off to get a grip on managing files. I have 250gb fast storage on the MBP itself, and 200gb in the ICloud, one would thing that's enough. The files seem too be multiplying like rabbits. IPhoto's Faces has created hundereds of "somethings" not sure what. I am sure I am very frustrated! Please comment with kindness.

Yes,I am confused. To say its just another drive is a "buzz statement".
OK, for example. If I download a document, song, or photo from ICloud, as I understand, it goes to Download in Finder. If I want to move it to a local folder of my choice on the solid state drive in my new MBP, does a copy always stay in ICloud? How do you housekeep? I have always used to a physical drive. What is different about the mind set. I used ICloud to store the contents of my old MBP. Once I download all the files I need, should I turn off ICloud and manage the file locally? I don't like the automatic movement of files when I don't understand the locations.
Nope, you don't understand it.
If you download a song from the iTunes cloud storage (which is not iCloud) it goes into the iTunes music folder (generally to a subfolder therein)
If you download a document from the iCloud drive it will go wherever you chose to put it.
If you download a photo from the iCloud Photo library it will also go wherever you choose to put it.*
If you move something you have not copied it, if you want to keep a copy on the iCloud drive and in a local folder, you would copy, not move it.
There is no 'automatic' movement, you decide what to store on the iCloud drive (exactly like any other drive) and what to remove.
The iCloud drive appears as a folder in Finder, you use it just like any other, copy/paste, save, delete etc.
You can turn the iCloud drive off whenever you like, download the content to a local drive first.
* Because the iCloud drive appears as a folder in Finder there is in fact no need to ever download anything to your Mac, everything on the drive is already on your Mac. -

I have no idea where to put the sort statement and how to implement it.Sorry about that. Before i proceed with the code I will say that I need help trying to determine where to put a sort statement and what sort statement should I use. I have three classes and have no idea how to sort the items by Product name. For instance, I have staples, books, and printers in my code. How do I get it to display these names and all of the corresponding information in alphabetical order. So with that said, here is the code.
First program:
// CheckPoint: Inventory Program Part 1
// Display product information
public class Product1 //declare class
//declare instance variables
private int productNumber,
inStock;
private String productName; // List of instance variables unique to object
private double unitPrice;
//constructor to handle no input and set defaults
public Product1()
//constructor to handle input parameters
public Product1( int number, String name, int stock, double perPrice )
productNumber = number;
productName = name;
inStock = stock;
unitPrice = perPrice;
public void setProductNumber( int number ) //stores product number
productNumber = number;
public void setProductName( String name ) //stores product name
productName = name;
public void setInStock( int stock ) //stores amount of product in stock
inStock = stock;
public void setUnitPrice( double perPrice ) //stores the unit price of product
unitPrice = perPrice;
public int getProductNumber() //allows a call to retrieve product number
return productNumber;
public String getProductName() //allows a call to retrieve the product name
return productName;
public int getInStock() //allows a call to retrieve stock info
return inStock;
public double getUnitPrice() //allows a call to retrieve unit price
return unitPrice;
public double getInventoryValue()
return ( (double)inStock * unitPrice );

Go to Settings>General>International and you can change the language, the keyboard and the region format in that setting.
Also go to Settings>General>Keyboard>International Keyboard and double check that you selected the correct keyboard layout. -
The lock rotation has turned on I have no idea how there is no icon on the bottom task bar can anyone help please
You have the lock icon towards the top right of the screen next to the battery indicator ? If you do then which iPad do you have ? If it's not the iPad Air 2 then you should have a Settings > General > Use Side Switch To option which controls what the switch on the side of the iPad, above the volume control does - if that is set to 'Lock Rotation' then you use that switch on the side to turn rotation on/off
If there isn't a lock icon at the top right then try a soft-reset and see if that gets the iPad to rotate again : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
