Is there a way I can use a Master with sub-projects on different calendars?

Wondering if I can get some advice creating a Master Project (MSP2013 Standard, no Project Server software). I have 3 projects of which 2 are utilising a Standard calendar 8:00AM to 5:00PM 8hr day 40hr week, and 1 project (the largest) utilising a Customised
calendar 7:30AM to 3:30PM  7.5hr day 37.5hr week.
The dominant project is running on the Customised calendar so I have set the Global Options in the Master to reflect the 7:30AM to 3:30PM  7.5hr day 37.5hr week. Then set the calendar in Master Project Information default to the Customised calendar. 
Finally, the resource pool for all 3 projects is in the Master.
No problem when I insert the sub-project into the Master which is using the customised calendar. All data is reflective of the original project.  However, when I insert either of the 2 sub-projects using the 40hr week calendar the Summary Headings for
the inserted projects are incorrect.  For example, instead of being 2 weeks duration, the summary heading displays 2.13 weeks, and instead of 4 weeks duration, the summary heading displays 4.27 weeks.
The Global settings appear to be interfering with the projects on the Standard calendars.  I am surprised and extremely frustrated as I thought the settings in the Master would not affect anything?
Sorry guys, have posted this in 3 different places as it is so important to me!

Hi Guys, many thanks for your responses, really appreciate your time, however I am finding this much more complex. I have put my original sheets to one side and started again. Once again this is very important hence a lot of detail here. I am hoping something
will provide a clue where I am going wrong.
New sheet |save as Master | Change Working Times |copy Standard Calendar and called it 37.5 Hour
Calendar| No exceptions | Work Weeks tab |Details | Set Monday to Friday 7:30AM to 12:30PM then 1:00PM to 3:30PM. Selected Options | Schedule | Start 7:30AM End 3:30PM |Hours 7.5 | Hours per week 37.5 |Auto Scheduled |Duration Hours|
Work Hours |Fixed Duration | OK OK. Project | Project Information | Calendar changed to 37.5 Hour Calendar | Save.
In my previous example I noted that my main project is scheduled 37.5 hours but I will skip inserting it here, the issue is subprojects with different settings to the Global, that is mixing projects with different calendars in a Master.
New sheet | save as 40 Hour Project |Change Working Times |Standard Calendar | No exceptions | Selected Options | Schedule | Start 8:00AM End 5:00PM |Hours 8 Hours per week 40 |Auto Scheduled |Duration Weeks | Work Hours |Fixed Duration
| OK OK | Save.
Entered 5 new Tasks, all 2weeks duration, all linked Finish to Start. Inserted a Summary Heading named 40 Hour Summary | 40 Hour Summary Duration = 10 wks | Start 9 June 1014 8:00 AM | Finish 15 August 2014 5:00 PM |Created 1 Resource called Fred | 100%
|$100 Standard Rate | Assigned Fred to all tasks 100% | Project | Project Information | Statistics | 10w 400h $40.000 |Save and Close | All correct.
Back to the Master | Project | Insert Subproject | selected 40 Hour Project |Duration 400 hrs | Start 9 June 2014 8:00AM | Finish 21 August 2014 10:30AM. It appears the Global settings are affecting the inserted subproject note the finish time is now
10:30AM. Project | Project Information |Statistics |Duration 400h | Work 400h | All correct!
BUT | select View Outline Show Subtasks |This is where further changes have happened | Project | Project Information |Statistics |Duration is now
374.5h | Work 400h.
Besides information being displayed incorrectly these figures will affect all Reports. This example suggests you cannot have subprojects in a Master that are associated with different calendars? Surely not! Please help if you can, I have
spent hours searching for answers, and I can’t believe I am the only one who has come across this! Many thanks.......

    You can use iCloud to sync your Safari bookmarks between your Mac and your iPad.
    Instructions here >  Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.
    Personally, I like the Wacom stylus for iPad >  Amazon.com: Wacom Tech Corp. Bamboo Stylus for iPad/Tablets: Computers & Accessories
    And try the accessibility features on your Mac. Open System Preferences > Accessibilty
    Apple - Accessibility - OS X
    I just noticeed on your other thread you mentioned that you've had your Mac for seven years so iCloud for syncing bookmarks may not be an option for you unless your Mac at the minimum is  running v10.7.5 with at Safari 5.1.1. See, "Bookmarks" >   System requirements for iCloud

  • Is there any way I can use Skype Number with Viber...

    Hello. With my Skype Number is there any way I can use it with Viber? So I give my Skype NUmber to a friend and they add me on Viber? Or do I have to divert my skype numebr to my actual number?

    Hi, if you give your Skype number to your friend they can make a Viber Out call to that number if they have some viber credit. Calls to landlines are usually cheap but it depends where in the world your friend is calling from.
    Have you got a Viber account too ? Viber to Viber over the Internet is free, like Skype to Skype being free. Persoanally I have both networks now.
    Viber is on smartphones, some feature phones and there's a desktop app too. Your Viber account is based upon the mobile number you register and Viber recognises phone numbers of your contacts to see if they're registered on Viber too.

  • I want to buy a new apple tv but it used hdmi cables and my house is only wired for analog.  Is there any way I can use the apple tv on analog cables?

    I want to buy a new apple tv but it used hdmi cables and my house is only wired for analog.  Is there any way I can use the apple tv on analog cables?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It's do-able, but I don't think it's a great idea.
    DVI
    Some users with DVI have managed to get their TV's to work with DVI-HDMI cables. DVI carries no audio, so alternative connections need to be explored to enable audio. DVI doesn't necessarily support HDCP as well as other standards used by HDMI (which may or may not be an issue)
    Analogue
    There are hardware converters that will convert HDMI to various other types of output, however there are some issues with doing so that you should be aware of.
    HDCP
    HDCP compliant converters will not allow you to watch HDCP protected content such as that from the iTunes Store. Non compliant converters exist but we cannot discuss them under the Terms of Use for these communities.
    Resolution and aspect ratio
    I'm not aware of any converters that will scale the output from the Apple TV, any TV or projector which is used will need to be widescreen and support resolutions of 720p (Apple TV 2), 720p/1080p (Apple TV 3)

    Hi champrider,
    You can use an application such as Apple Remote Desktop to control your iMac remotely. See this article -

  • Is there a way I can use my external hard drive without the files being transferred on to my computer? as like like my iTunes music being on my hard drive without them being copied onto my computers hard drive ?

    is there a way I can use my external hard drive without the files being transferred on to my computer? as like like my iTunes music being on my hard drive without them being copied onto my computers hard drive ? because i dont have that much memory and i wanted my external hard drive to be the source for my music files and not my computer.

    Many users keep their iTunes libraries on external drives. You just have to remember to connect and power up the drive before launching iTunes.

    I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create>pdf from scanner, it displays an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is there any way I can use this functionality?

    Provide you have Acrobat 9 installed in an OS for which Acrobat 9 is compatible then you can use the functionality.
    As well, you need a scanner connected, powered up, and the software installed. Acrobat 9 "prefers" TWAIN drivers.
    Always visit the scanner vendor's site and download - install the latest greatest software.
    n.b., The Acrobat 9.x product family passed into "End of Support" mid-year 2013.
    As well the Acrobat 9.x product family is not compatible with contemporary OSs.
    Be well...

    If you use the LiveSDK to authenticate the user and specify the wl.signin scope, when the user signs into your app and provides consent to single sign-in when they can go to any Microsoft Account supported app or website they will not have to enter their

  • Is there any way I can use bi beans without the patches

    I am a Chinese student,I am doing some research on OLAP.
    I'm in the initial stages of evaluating BI Beans for my research. We have previously not used Oracle in house.
    In attempting to use BI Beans, the first thing you must do is install the latest patches against the Oracle database. Unfortunately, the patches are only available for people with a suport contract.
    Is there any way I can get these patches without a support contract, or is there any way I can use bi beans without the patches?
    thanks alot,

    You must have a valid support contract to access Metalink. You could try contacting your local support centre and ask if they could make the patches available to you.

    Allan,
    If you get your album artwork from the iTunes Store, it is stored in the folder iTunes/Artwork in an encrypted ".itc2" file.  There may be tools out there to extract it, but it is generally much easier to get the art via a web search in JPG format to use in projects.
