Mathmatical errors in Apple Numbers program and Apple Calculator

I have a Mac Book Pro with Mountain Lion OS. Has anyone had an issue with entering numbers in the cells for Numbers? When you enter a 16 digit number, it takes every value of the 16th digit and replaces it with a zero! Also try this-go to the Apple Calculator in the Applications directory and enter a number with a decimal point. On my entry of 45 plus a decimal point, I would get 45.00. Any digit after this such as 2 would yield 45.002. It automatically inserts two zeros! I may be doing something wrong but after using a calculator and spreadsheet for some years now, it would seem that this is a fairly simply process of entering numbers. Any agreements or solutions to this. I also had this problem with the earlier OS versions too. I contacted Apple but go no response to these questions.

Sorry but double precision computer jargon just doesn't do it.I should at least get the 16th digit with any Engineering language.  If Apple wishes to allow a large entry for calculations on a spreadsheet basis, then Apple should be responsible for an accurate outcome. When you think about this, one cannot even store a 16 digit credit card number in Apple's Number's cell. By definition this is a bug without exaggeration. I am not sure if there is a clear understanding of this issue but it is the 16 digit and all following digits, that appear as 0s upon entry. Hopefully a patch can be generated to expand the numerical capabilities of Apple.
Did anyone else have a problem with the Apple calculator app that I have experienced.  For those who didn't have a problem is there a setting or another program that is infuencing it or i have missed in making this work? It is version 10.8 (123)

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro on both my Apple Mac Pro and Apple MacBook Pro

    I think I found the answer to my question: "May I install my copy of Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro on both my Apple Mac Pro and on my recently purchased Apple MacBook Pro?" I think my question was answered in reading the text of the agreement for use of this site in the following:
    "You may activate the Software on up to 2 devices (or virtual machines) at a time, if these activations are associated with the same Adobe ID for the same individual, unless stated at http://www.adobe.com/go/activation . However, you may not use the Software on these devices simultaneously."
    If this is correct, would you confirm. I know how security conscious Adobe is with their software.
    Thank you! Be Safe!
    Ken

    Hi kennethf71183385,
    Thank you so much for asking! Yes, you are entitled to activate your copy of Acrobat on two computers. Please see Activation & Deactivation Help - Adobe Support for more information about activating Adobe software!
    Please let us know if you have additional questions.
    Best,

  • Difference between Apple Authorized Reseller and Apple Authorized Repair?

    I'm looking to upgrade the hard drive in my MBP without voiding my warranty. I asked a local store if they were an authorized Apple repair facility and got back a reply saying that they are an Authorized Apple Reseller. Is there a difference? I've got a little more than a year left on my AppleCare Extended Warranty and don't want to do anything that might keep me from being covered in the future.
    Thanks for any insight.

    Resellers may not provide any warranty repair but this isn't universally true. The important concern is if the work is done by Apple Trained Technicians. Warranty work must be done by ATTs to avoid any concerns over voiding the warranty.
    An authorized repair facility may be any facility that has been certified by Apple to perform warranty (and non-warranty) repair on Apple products.
    For example Amazon.com is an authorized reseller but they do not provide any service (warranty or otherwise) on Apple computers. On the other hand Apple Stores have authorized repair facilities.

  • Mac Mini used as Apple TV (airplay and apple remote on iphone/ipod)

    Yesterday Apple announced the new Apple TV as an iOS device. It can be controlled using the apple remote app on an iphone or ipod touch. I am using a Mac Mini using Air Mouse to control the Mini which is hooked up to my TV. Would it be possible to use the Apple Remote app for this?

    Hi Bart,
    you could use the itunes remote app to control your itunes music / videos from an iphone/ipod touch/ipad.
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/remote/
    Keep in mind the itunes currently uses the remote app in a different manor to the apple tv. I don't think you could use the itunes remote app to for instance rent movies. But ones you had the movie rented you could use the remote app to trigger playing /pausing the movie. But there are some advantages, like you can get a list of videos on the computer on the iOS device.

  • DEP Program and Apple Reseller ID.

    Hi, We are an IT Reseller based in Dubai. and sell Server and storage solutions to schools.One of our customers (a school in Dubai) needed 15-20 IPADs which we sourced from the Open Market in Dubai. Now the customer (School) needs the Apple Deployment Feature for them. Reading on the Apple site, for this we need to create an Apple Reseller ID. But we realised that the Products we purchased and supplied were not purchased from an Apple Authorised reseller/s. They were traders. Products are originals Apple IPADs and the resellers are giving us the warranty etc. But they dont have an Apple ID. How can i help the customer?
    And the authorised Apple centre in Dubai is not helping us. We bought Genuine Apple IPADs but from the open channel and unfortunately we realised that it wasnt from the Authorised channel. We want to help the customer. Can anyone advise. My email is *****

  • Multiple Apple Id's and apple tv

    I have recently found that I have unwittingly got 3 (yes 3) different Apple id's. No problem in Itunes as all the music / movies etc are all in my library and can be played. However on Apple TV this is a real pain, because all my items are listed under all 3 id's and you cannot show the complete library.
    I have registered all the id's on my apple TV, but you have to swap between them to try and find the track you want or the movie you want to watch, Nightmare !
    Apple don't want to merge any of them, as they say this is for security, however they have verified that all the acccounts use the same bank account, I am the owner of all 3 etc etc. Seems to me they have no way of completing the merge and this must be the issue?
    So no security risk, i am not going to divorce myself ? :-)
    Will someone at Apple explain what can be done, rather than what cannot be done? I have purchased all my music through itunes or in the first instance sat and imported all my old Cd's. My reward for buying and being loyal is no can do !
    Heeeeeeeeeeeeelp!

    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

  • HT5167 can`t install it on Apple MacBook Pro and Apple Air, Why

    Update 10.7.4 don`t let install on Mac Book Pro and also on Apple Air

    If installing on 10.7.2, 10.7.1, or 10.7.0, you need to use the Combo update. If installing on 10.7.3, you can use the Delta update form Apple's website or Software Update application on the same Mac.  You can't use the Delta update from Software Update application on another Mac on your Mac unless they are identical model and vintage. If installing on 10.6.8 or earlier, you must pay for 10.7 Mac App Store, or use a 10.7 installer USB stick first before applying it to your machine.  Note: 10.7 does not support Rosetta.  For other 10.7 pitfalls read this tip:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2465
    Make sure all your software and hardware is ready for 10.7.4 before installing, and backup your data at least twice before installing, and disconnect the backup from your machine before installing.

  • Is there a difference between Apple ID password and Apple store password?

    Seems when I use my iphone or touch, it uses or changes the password to use.  I like to update apps and information, but I am really tired of changing my password all the time.  When i use my imac it all seems fine, when i try to use the other objects, I never have the right password?  Has anyone else had this problem?

    Depends upon to whom you are speaking. There is the iTunes Store, sometimes called the App Store, from which Apple vends apps for iPhones, iPads, and iPods. Then there is the Mac App Store, MAS, also sometimes referred to as the App Store rather than the Mac App Store where Apple vends software for Mac computers.

  • Connecting hp 4620 to wireless network with an apple airport express and apple OS X 10.5

    Any help would be greatly.  This setup used to print wirelessly just fine until we switched internet providers and now the printer will not connect via the airport express router.  I've tried going into the airport utility, manual set-up, base station.....but there is no "add wireless clients" to choose like all the online help that I've read says should be there.  Thx in advance, Matt

  • Shared photo streams in iPhoto and Apple TV

    Why is this proving so difficult for Apple to get right?
    All I want to do is create private albums that I can share with family and have them sync back to my Mac so that all I need to do is organise my photos ONCE (i.e. on iPhone or iPad) and see these albums in iPhoto where they are also backed up locally.
    I've created a shared photo stream album, shared it with my wife... she can see it on her phone... great.
    I look in my iPhoto and there is no sign whatsoever that I've ever created a shared album. Just the main photo stream mess as usual.
    Also, I go to my Apple TV and the same thing, just the same "every photo ever" mess.
    I've recently taken to using Vimeo because this provides exactly what I need for home video. Create edited video in iMovie for iPad or Mac, then upload it to Vimeo, and share it only with family. I can then view them back on Mac, Apple TV, iPad etc.
