Is there a way to auto fill cells with the exact number in mind?

I am trying to avoid this:
Column "A" is used as a "MATCH(" point for an "INDEX(" formula in another spreadsheet, and although cell A329 says 73.14, which is what the other sheet can identify to populate the particular row five columns over, its really
73.1399999999... thus, not giving me the correct reference and not populating properly. 
Is there a solution?
I have about 1,500 rows to go through, I know I can do this manually, one at a time, but I'm pressed for time. 
Thanks,
Cris

Re:  too many numbers
In a helper column enter a rounding formula and fill down...
  =ROUND(A2,2)
Copy the helper column and paste Values over column A.

    No. Turn it into the military police.

    Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
    Then sync.

  • Is there a way to backup a PC with the Time Capsule?

    Is there a way to backup a PC with the Time Capsule?

    Yes, but unfortunately not with Time Machine. You could; however, use any PC backup product that supports network drives as a destination for their backups. One such product is Genie9's Genie Backup Manager Home.
    Genie9 offers a similar option for Time Machine for PCs, called Genie Timeline Home. It is advertised to support backups to "NAS and network storages," but several folks who have this reported that it wasn't able to backup to a Time Capsule. If you decide to give either Genie9 product a try, please be sure to give their trial versions a go to make it works for your situation.

  • How do I create a shortcut to fill cells with the same background colour

    I have recently starting using Numbers, being an Excel user for years.
    I often fill cells with a yellow background to highlight them.
    In Excel you can do this from a simple colour menu in the toolbar at the top.
    I have found no quick and easy way to do this in Numbers.
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    thank you

    As far as I can tell there's no direct equivalent of the little paintbucket button in Excel that remembers the last colour you filled with.
    One quick and relatively easy way to achieve it would be with an AppleScript:
    tell application "Numbers" to tell front document to tell active sheet
      try
      set active_table to (first table whose class of selection range is range)
      on error
      display alert "No selection" buttons {"OK"} default button 1
      return
      end try
      tell active_table
      set background color of selection range to {62466, 65535, 28003}
      end tell
    end tell
    This could be run from Numbers' script menu (screen grab below) or saved as an Automator Service and run from a popup or keyboard shortcut (eg ctrl-y).
    Post back if you'd like to follow up either of those ideas.

  • Is there a way to play itunes music with the computer shut?

    Is there a way to play itunes music while the computer is shut?

    Not without either an external monitor and keyboard, or using a hack. If you want to try an hack app, look into:

  • Is there a way to Auto-Fill the Album Artist field for an entire library?

    The same way that iTunes can "Get Album Artwork" or "Get Track Names" is there a way to "Get Album Artist"? iTunes automatically added some, but my 2 year old daughter was playing on my computer, and the next thing I know, the whole column was erased. Any solutions to autofill this?

  • Is there a way to auto fill DATE and TIME

    I have the field format set to mmddHHMM
    Can  you please tell me how to have the date and time auto fill when the PDF is opened?
    I am new at this so details are very helpful. Thank you!

    Let's say the field's name is Now. Go to Tools - JavaScript - Document JavaScripts and create a new item. Name it "scripts".
    Delete any code that is created by default and enter this instead:
    this.getField("Now").value = new Date();
    Click OK and you're done. The field will update each time the file is opened.

  • Is there a way to change usage right with the SDK?

    Working on a web application that populates a PDF form based on interview questions using a third party tool. Everything works correctly except when there is a signature field on the form. Looking at the document properties, the Signing right has been changed from allowed before data population to not allowed after data population. Is there a way to reset this right back to allowed using the tools in the SDK?
    Thanks,
    Chuck

    Next question, if AFORMAUTLib is used to populate the data, instead of the third party tool, and the filled out PDF is written out to a memory stream to be displayed in the browser, would this change the rights of the document?
    Thanks for your help.

  • Is there a way to delete all events with the same title (not added as reoccurring) without deleting one at a time?

    i currently have a calendar synced that has events scheduled in perpetuity, scheduled as individual events.  I would like to delete all events with the same title.  I do not want to delete the entire calendar nor do I want to go into every event and delete individually.  These were not scheduled by me so I do not know how they were added one by one and go on forever but they are NOT scheduled as reoccurring and thus must be modified individually.
    I can do a search and find all events, is there a way to just delete all events with the same title all at once?
    this is a Microsoft outlook synced calendar and I am seemingly unable to delete the events all at one time from Microsoft as well. 
    Please help!

    If you still have access to the Outlook calendar in Outlook, I would delete them from there. There are a number of ways to do that, but if you open the individual event in Outlook, does it show a repeating pattern? If not, then you may have to delete them individually, but that is not that difficult either. Go into the calendar and then change the view to a list view. From there you can sort the view according to subject. This should bring all of these same appointments together in the list and you can select the group in Outlook and delete them. Once you do that, you can change your view back and then sync the phone. That will remove the events from the phone.

  • HT4061 My ipod was stolen, is there a way of getting it back using the cerial number or other security information?

    Someone has stolen my ipod. I do not have it with me, but is there another way to find the cerial number or another piece of information i could turn into the police? is there anyway of getting it back, Becuase i hav a good idea of who stole it, and i have some prove, but its just witness prove, no real prove.

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to school and police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

  • Is there a way to make movies open with the same screen size and position?

    Hello, I'm a new mac guy having just bought an i-mac a few months ago.
    I have a bunch of saved movies that open in quick time. Each time I open a separate movie by double clicking the file, the window opens in the upper right hand corner in a fairly small window. I must then drag the window size and location to a much larger size. I do this every time.
    I saw under quicktime, preferences, a section about preferences for full screen. This seems to work one time, for that movie, but all subsequent movies (even in full screen) or their same size.
    Is there a way to make the window size and/or location permanent?
    Thanks.

    this would have seemed like an easy thing to do but i've had no luck; one more attempt at a solution?

  • Is there a way to "stamp" PDF files with the purchaser's email address?

    I would like to sell PDF reports and/or eBooks via BC, but I would like to be able to stamp each such PDF/eBook with the purchaser's email address.
    There are certainly stand-alone PDF stamper programs and some providers like gumroad.com already offer that feature.
    Anyone actually done it with BC, please?
    Thanks in advance

    Thanks for the rapid response, Liam -- even if it's not the response I was hoping for.
