Mean function no longer part of numbers for iPad?

I have been searching for this function for a while with no luck. Numbers for iPad use to have the ability to highlight rows or columns and would give the mean, high, low, & count in a pop up box. I know I could create a formula to get the same info but it was really convenient for us to access the information with that function. The info is in the bottom left-hand corner of numbers for Mac. Please give me some direction if I've missed the function somewhere in numbers for iPad or confirm for me that it was taken out of the program when they updated a few months ago. Thanks for your help

I did notice that some scheduled tasks had him as the Creator but they do not run as his old account. Would that do it?
I wold not think so, but I don't know for a fact.

    there is no filter function in numbers for ipad,its very discouraging,as a ipad fan,even nokia lumia providing filter function in excel in there low cost mobile.
    APPLE KINDLY PROVIDE THIS FEATURE AS UPDATE SOON,COZ I WORK ON EXCEL N NUMBERS IN MY IPAD IS DEAD WITH OUT FILTER FUNCTION,I CAN NOT TRAVEL WITH MY IPAD DUE TO THIS REASON,AS I HAVE TO BE IN FIELD WITH SALES FORCE SO I BOUGHT IPAD.

    Probably you know that the new version of Numbers for iOS uses the filters created in the Numbers for Mac version.
    It's not the best solution but it helps (of course, if you have a Mac!)

  • Using Forms in Numbers for iPad

    Although Forms for the iPad may seem to be a great interface between the user and the spreadsheet, it has a few significant drawbacks under it's present design.
    When using predefined records and catagories to prompt a user for input, one runs into problems when the user inadvertantly presses the delete key (within the form). This would delete a predefined record and thus rendering it usesless for any further input, and subsequent deletions would eventually delete all the predefined records.
    As a workaround I re-arranged the input table to have one record only, using the categories (table columns) to input the relevant information via Pop-up Menus. Although this single record remains after pushing the delete button, the information within the record is somehow corupted, causing reference problems down the line. For instance, using the content of these records with the VLOOKUP function to find data within other tables, a #REF! error is caused because the relevant record was corrupted.
    How could I disable the delete key within Forms, or alternatively save the data from deletion within the records?
    Is there perhaps a way of error trapping within VLOOKUP ?
    As an alternative, I tried a normal table to input the user information, and where I used Pop-up Menus it's was fine, but when inputing numeric values it would be a pain for the user to have to double tap with every numeric input. I would prefer to use Forms if possible.
    Any help would be appreciated, thanks

    I have submitted an enhancement request via Apple's iPad feedback and hoping that future versions of Numbers for iPad would have the ability to password protect table cells, and also have the abilty to disable the delete function within Forms.
    Would appreciate any further halp on a possble workaround in the mean time.

  • Using Voiceover in Numbers for iPad

  • Default cell format in Numbers for iPad

    Is there a way to assure that when I insert a row in Numbers for iPad, that I get the text keyboard (and not the numbers keyboard) when I double-tap the cell to edit it?

    As long as the row is formatted as text you will get the text keyboard and not the number, date or formula keyboard. Generally what happens when you insert a row it copies the format of the cell above.
    I have only had trouble occasionally when using a form and the cell is not formatted the way I need it to be. Usually when that has happened I have been inserting and deleting rows in an almost random fashion.
    When I am in the sheet itself it is easy to tap the "T" to get the text input.

  • Cell Comments in Numbers for iPad

    I am thinking of buying the Numbers for iPad app (in spite of the frightening number of poor reviews of this product!) and am wondering if anybody knows whether or not Cell Comments transfer over from Numbers on the iMac to Numbers on the iPad.
    It seems that there are effectively two different pieces of software that share the same name but that the mobile version is very basic.
    Thanks!

  • I have created a spreadsheet on numbers for ipad with a list of customers as a drop down menu. How can i make their address appear underneath when i select the customer?

    I have created a spreadsheet on numbers for ipad with a list of customers as a drop down menu. How can i make their address appear underneath when I select the customer?
    iselect the customer?

    Hi bazza,
    We won't be able to put the address from a formula into the same cell that you enter the customer's name. We can put the address in the cell under the customers name.
    First let's take James advice and concatenate the address in the address table.
    Here is the formula in G2
    =CONCATENATE(B2&"
    ",C2&"
    ",D2&"
    ",E2)
    It shows this way because after I clicked on B2 and typed [&"] (no brackets) I typed option-return
    This gives you your new line. Then I typed the closing ". I repeated this for the rest of the address.
    Next we want to bring this to your order sheet. I prefer using the two formulas OFFSET and MATCH instead of VLOOKUP.
    base tells OFFSETwhere to start counting from. Click A1.
    row-offset is for the row. we will use MATCH() -1 to give us the row.
    What MATCH does is give you the row number where something is found and you can specify an exact match. I usually construct the MATCH formula first and then cut and paste it into OFFSET. MATCH looks like this: MATCH(A2,Table 1::A,0). A2 is what we are looking for, Table 1A::A is where we are looking (the entire column A), and 0 means we want an exact match. Can you see it inside the OFFSET formula? Notice that we had to subtract 1 from its result.
    column-offset tells OFFSET which column A=0 so we want 6.
    we ignore "rows", "colomns" we don't need them.
    If this seems like too much, just break it down into small pieces.

  • Numbers for iPad totalling check boxes

    I am very new to Numbers on iPad. I have been searching for how to total check boxes and gather that you use the function "countif" Am I missing something? I look in functions and can only see count or if, but not a countif option. How do you select this function?

    John, Is that for the desktop version of numbers? Sounds like it with the reference to the Insert menu.
    on Numbers for IPad, you
    double tap a cell
    tap the equal button above the keyboard that shows up
    tap "functions" to the right
    Tap "Categories" on the top of the floating window
    then Statistical.
    Browse for Countif
    Tap countif to add it to your formula.
    The first argument is highlighted, so tap the reference range to be tested
    Tap the second argument bubble for condition.
    Tap the True/False button twice to cycle through to True
    Tap the GReen check mark to finish

  • Where  do I find basic instructions on Numbers for iPad?

    I bought numbers for ipad to have a portable spreadsheet program to use in the field.  I previously used HanDBase with my smart phone.  I'm having problems with figuring out how to use numbers.  For example, I entered two columns of numbers and wanted to calculate a correlation coefficient.  I could enter the numbers and highlight them, bu I was unable to make the program apply the formula to those numbers.
    Where can I find out how to use this program? It isn't intuitively obvious to me.  Are there any books written on the subject?

    Bottlerocket,
    When you open a spreadsheet on your iPad there is a Help File readily available under the Tool Menu (the wrench icon in the upper right) - it has a search option and can provide instructions to entering formulas on the iPad in Numbers.
    Additional help can be found in two downloadable PDF files: Numbers '09 User Guide  http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/Numbers09_UserGuide.pdf  and The Formula and Functions User Guide  http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/Formulas_and_Functions_User_Guide.pdf - both are for Numbers '09 for OSX but many of the principles are the same with iOS Numbers and OSX Numbers
    Remember, too, that if you "dump" your iPad Numbers app (i.e., delete it from your iPad) any files created by it are also deleted - be sure you transfer any files you wish to keep before "dumping" Numbers. Personnaly, I think you will miss some of the real pleasures of using Numbers if you do, but Happy Computing to you.

  • How do I copy/paste a part FROM GarageBand for iPad TO another app?

    This is a feature that it looks like Apple have half-implemented but it's not complete...
    I can paste parts TO GarageBand for iPad from numerous other apps no problem. I've done this with everyday looper, sunrizer, dm1, nlog, etc.
    But when I try to copy parts FROM GarageBand it fails. I need to do this to, say, take a part I'm working on, listen to it in everyday looper, and compose an NLog synth part over the top. Or to take a part from GarageBand, add effects in Moog Filtron, and then paste it back to GarageBand. This is basic stuff you need to be able to do if you are using an app like GarageBand as your songwriting environment.
    With functionality like this potentially blocked or not implemented, it makes GarageBand not the production solution it could be. Very much hope I'm being stupid and you can point out the way...

    Doesn't seem possible at the moment. It may well be in the pipeline already but you could always drop a line to GarageBand for iPad Feedback requesting such a feature...

  • How can I insert an image into a cell in Numbers for iPad?

    Hi,
    is there any way to insert an image inside a cell using Numbers for iPad? I tried doing it on desktop version and it works, then I shared it through iwork.com and downloaded into my iPad and it's showing fine on the iPad ( although there's no way to edit or change the image inside the cell ) but when I try to do the same task on iPad itself, the image always comes floating even if I place the cursor inside a cell before inserting.
    any idea how to do it or if it's even possible?
    thanks.
    John

    Images can be added to cells only as "image fill." Cell fill is an attribute of the cell, not content of the cell. Only cell content can be retrieved by a formula or by copying the content of the cell.
    Copying the cell will also copy its format, including the image fill, but I've found no way to extract the image from the cell.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • How do I add multiple rows in Numbers for iPad?

    how do I add multiple rows in Numbers for iPad?

    Hi James,
    On the iPod I can only insert what is on the clipboard but I can insert however many rows I have there. Is it working differently for you? Benjoon seemed to think that he could not do this in Numbers. He was ruling Numbers out because of it. He doesn't need to do that because of this issue.
    If I was needing to insert multiple blank rows often I might keep a table of blank rows or just some blank rows at the end of the working table that I could copy/paste. This is no different than Numbers on the Mac.

    I've been using numbers for iPad and I accidentally deleted a column. And the auto-save feature saved that and now I can't undo it. Does iCloud storage have backups of saved files from like 10 minutes ago? I have numbers synced to iCloud.
    I tried to undo it but the app crashed.
    I am hoping there's like a previously saved version of my file in iCloud somewhere. 

    No, iOS does not do short term incremental back ups to iCloud such as you get with Time Capsule.It backs up when you do soo manually, or if set properly, when the device is plugged in and connected to WiFi. It will not have saved your changes as of 10 minutes prior.
