Missing Numbers Documents
I only had 2 documents on numbers. They no longer appear to be on any of my devices or in the cloud. Where did they go?
Several days ago I started to download the new 10.9 but stopped it because it didn't seem to be responding.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Do you see the documents in...
iCloud.com

Can't open numbers documents, says index.xml file is missing?
can't open numbers documents, says index.xml file is missing
I came across this problem after upgrading to Mavericks. Here's what I did to solve the problem:
Issue: I began working on an existing spreadsheet. After I saved it and tried to pull it up again later, I got the message "index.xml file is missing...".
Go to your dock and delete the icon for Numbers (mine still referred to the previous version of Numbers).
Go to Applications and drag the Numbers icon to the dock. This icon now links to the new version of Numbers and (hopefully) your spreadsheet should work. -
I have an icloud account and can access my numbers documents on my mac at home and iphone by clicking on the numbers icon and these saved documents appear
I now have a macbook air on which I have icloud but when I click the numbers icon I can't find my saved documents
Any ideas ?Hello mikebundy,
Let's double check to make sure everything is setup correctly, please see the following resource:

To use Documents in the Cloud with your Mac apps, Documents & Data must be turned on in iCloud preferences.
Turn on Documents in the Cloud
- Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click iCloud.

Changes to Numbers document on iOS get discarded
I was happily updating my spreadsheet with Numbers on my iPad 3. Then I opened the document in iCloud but the latest changes to my document weren't there. So, I closed the document at icloud.com and went back to my iPad. The latest changes to my Numbers document were completely erased from the iPad as well! There was absolutely no warning of conflicts and I didn't edit the spreadsheet in icloud.com at all!
What makes this happen and what to do to avoid this?Now those changes aren't showing up in the same document on my iMac.
of course not. iwork on Mac does not even know that icloud exists. Syncing of iwork files is only active in iOS devices, not for Mac.
How can I accomplish this task?
navigate from mac to www.icloud.com , go to the iwork section, up- or download your file :
After editing a downloaded document, you must re-upload it, else the iOS doesn't get the changes . The browser is the missing link, because as I said : iwork on Mac has no cloud integration - none. You can also use Microsoft or Open-Office, it just does not matter.. Basically you would not even have to have iwork09 installed, only those ios apps. -
My numbers document doesn't have some formulas
My numbers document is missing some of the formulas. And I can't open main document
That's 16GB before you take out the 3-4GB occupied by iOS and the bundled apps that come with it. Plus the 16GB quoted on the box is measured in decimal GB (10^9 or 1000000000bytes) whereas iOS reports the available/used storage in binary GB (2^30 or 1073741824bytes) instead.
See How OS X and iOS report storage capacity - Apple Support for more information. -
Use Applescript to create folder structure from Numbers document
Hello All,
I know this is possible and I am feeling close - I just couldn't find a post that addressed the issue I am having exactly. Essentially I have a client list with 211 business names in it. I am trying to create a script that will scan the first column of my Numbers document and create a folder structure from that list. I found a post on another website that gave me a rough template and this is where I am at:
set destinationFolder to "MacHD:/Users//Documents/Work/Customers/:to:folder:"
tell application "Numbers.app"
set theCells to value of range "A1:A211" of active sheet
end tell
repeat with oneCell in theCells
tell application "Finder" to make new folder at folder destinationFolder with properties {name:item 1 of oneCell}
end repeat
When I run this I get "Expected end of line but found class name." and in the result window it display "
error "Can’t get value of range." number -1728 from «class NMCv» of «class NmCR»"
I am completely new to this and don't really know how to debug. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you so much!
AdamHere is an enhanced version which no longer use a loop to extract the selected values.
--{code}
set destinationFolder to "MacHD:/Users//Documents/Work/Customers/:to:folder:"
tell application "Numbers.app"
set theCells to value of range "A1:A211" of active sheet
end tell
repeat with oneCell in theCells
tell application "Finder" to make new folder at folder destinationFolder with properties {name:item 1 of oneCell}
end repeat
set destinationFolder to "" & (path to desktop) & " dossier"
Select the range of source cells then run the script *)
Grab parameters describing the selected cells *)
set {dName, sName, tName, rowNum1, colNum1, rowNum2, colNum2} to my get_SelParams()
tell application "Numbers" to tell document dName to tell sheet sName to tell table tName
Extract the names from the selected cells *)
tell column colNum1
set theNames to value of cells rowNum1 thru rowNum2
end tell -- column
end tell -- Numbers
I always do my best to use System Events which is faster than the Finder *)
tell application "System Events"
repeat with aName in theNames
try
make new folder at end of folder destinationFolder with properties {name:aName as text}
end try
end repeat
end tell
--=====
set { dName, sName, tName, rowNum1, colNum1, rowNum2, colNum2} to my get_SelParams()
tell application "Numbers" to tell document dName to tell sheet sName to tell table tName
on get_SelParams()
local d_Name, s_Name, t_Name, row_Num1, col_Num1, row_Num2, col_Num2
tell application "Numbers" to tell document 1
set d_Name to its name
set s_Name to ""
repeat with i from 1 to the count of sheets
tell sheet i to set maybe to the count of (tables whose selection range is not missing value)
if maybe is not 0 then
set s_Name to name of sheet i
exit repeat
end if -- maybe is not 0
end repeat
if s_Name is "" then
if my parleAnglais() then
error "No sheet has a selected table embedding at least one selected cell !"
else
error "Aucune feuille ne contient une table ayant au moins une cellule sélectionnée !"
end if
end if
tell sheet s_Name to tell (first table where selection range is not missing value)
tell selection range
set {top_left, bottom_right} to {name of first cell, name of last cell}
end tell
set t_Name to its name
tell cell top_left to set {row_Num1, col_Num1} to {address of its row, address of its column}
if top_left is bottom_right then
set {row_Num2, col_Num2} to {row_Num1, col_Num1}
else
tell cell bottom_right to set {row_Num2, col_Num2} to {address of its row, address of its column}
end if
end tell -- sheet…
return {d_Name, s_Name, t_Name, row_Num1, col_Num1, row_Num2, col_Num2}
end tell -- Numbers
end get_SelParams
--=====
on parle_anglais()
return (do shell script "defaults read 'Apple Global Domain' AppleLocale") does not start with "fr_"
end parle_anglais
--=====
--{code}
Here is an alternate version of the piece of code extracting the values :
--{code}
Grab parameters describing the selected cells *)
set {dName, sName, tName, rowNum1, colNum1, rowNum2, colNum2} to my get_SelParams()
tell application "Numbers" to tell document dName to tell sheet sName to tell table tName
Extract the names from the selected cells *)
set cell1 to name of cell rowNum1 of column colNum1
set cell2 to name of cell rowNum2 of column colNum1
set theNames to value of cells of range (cell1 & ":" & cell2)
end tell -- Numbers
--{code}

How can I create a new Numbers Document through AppleScript?
How can I create a new Numbers Document through AppleScript?
I try this:
tell application "Numbers"
make new document with properties {template name:"blank"}
end tell
But don't work.
Where can I find documentation about it?
ThanksIf you try to invent your own syntax, you are starting on very wrong basis.
The required syntax is defined by the Numbers AppleScript's dictionary.
This one doesn't know what is a template.
This is why, in the link posted by badunit, I use an other scheme to create a new document.
I know that it's awful but it's the only one available at this time.

I am planning my wedding and I have this huge Numbers document with 20+ tabs and I have plans to add many more tabs. Is there a way to create a table that has two columns: column 1= order that a tab appears, column 2=tab name? For example, my first three tabs are called Venues, Must Haves, and To Do List (in this order. I'd want this table of contents to be in the first sheet of the document, so it would be like sheet 1. Then I 'd want like the cells of column 1 to be like 2, 3, 4 (2nd, 3rd, 4th sheet in the document), and then the cells of column 2 to say Venues, Must Haves, and To Do List. I can make a tiny table of one cell in each sheet that I copied the name of the sheet and then do like a cell reference for column 2, but I'm having trouble w column 1.
There is no referential value for the order of the sheets, just the sheet name. Only two things I can think of to suggest:
Do the same thing for the first column that you do with the second (i.e. put a referential column in the same table as the Name and point to that).
Seriously consider using a word processor program. Numbers is probably the wrong tool. -
How do I link to information in cells within other Numbers documents?
I am trying to simplify my staff wages. I have a Numbers document with 12 sheets (months) each with one table showing staff, pay deductions etc.
I want to have 6 other documents (one for each member of staff); each of which will have 12 sheets (months). These will house 12 identical payslips, one for each month. I need each cell to auto-fill from the associated cell in the overview Numbers document.
I created this in Excel but when I imported it, Numbers is happy with the overview document but the not the formulae importing figures from other the document.
I'm sure I should be able to do this, but I ain't wiz enough.
I hope I've managed to convey what I'm trying to do, and I hope someone can help me.There is no link between two Numbers documents.
The easy workaround is to create new sheets dedicated to what is, at this time, stored in other documents.
And of course,
_Go to "Provide Numbers Feedback" in the "Numbers" menu_, explain politely that you wish to be able to insert links between document.
Then, cross your fingers, and wait _at least_ for iWork'11

Weird error -43, when double-clicking a numbers document in finder
Steps to repro:
0) open a finder window at the location (e.g. ~/Desktop) you are going to save your numbers document.
1) create a new numbers document.
2) save the document to the directory (e.g. ~/Desktop) that you have already displaying open in the finder (<- very important)
3) switch to the finder and double click the numbers document.
4) I get a error -43 at that point.
5) To get around the error you have to change the directory to one up and then back to where the numbers document is or switch the view mode (cmd-1, cmd-2, cmd-3) .
Looks like the finder has problems with recently saved numbers documents.
Even weirder:
Press cmd-I on the numbers document in the finder after you just saved it. The numbers document disappears and so doeas the Information dialog. What the heck?
Can anyone else repro this?Thanks for trying.
I tried as well, now saving to the desktop, which is on a seperate volume.
I had the problem saving to the work volume.
It seems to have to do with permissions.
I checked "Ignore ownership on this volume" and applied it to all subdirs.
Seems to have solved the issue. -
Ipad can't see numbers document in icloud
I have icloud set up on my imac, itouch and ipad. I have Numbers on all of them. I saved a numbers document on the cloud from imac, and it appeared on ipad. This morning I saved another numbers document on icloud, but no matter what I do it won't show up on ipad. I've wasted SO MUCH TIME (not to mention the money it cost to buy the apps) on this useless "timesaving" feature. *** is going on?
Disregard. It apparently took about 15 minutes for the sync to occur and now I'm seeing my iCloud documents on my iPad.

Error message when trying to salve pages or numbers documents
All of a sudden i get the following message when trying to save newly created pages or numbers documents into my documents folder
"The file “Untitled.numbers-tef” couldn’t be opened". THis is for doocuments created from scratch.
Can anyone please help?
I'm relatively new to new to the iMac and OS so not sure if something has been set up incorrectly - but it's been working OK for approx 3 months.
Any help greatly appreciated.I spoke too soon. I began a new movie and imported
photo clips, which rendered just fine. However, I
can drag transitions in between the photos, but they
simply will not render. Everything was just swell
until yesterday afternoon when I changed the length
of the clips so that there would be enough room for
the transition. I tried to do multiple clips at the
same time, but they never rendered. It was then when
I was unable to add any more transitions.
Aha! That may be different problem. There's a bug in iMovie that makes it impossible to update image clips after you empty the iMovie trash. If you imported the image with the Ken Burns checkbox ON, the bug can affect you later.
It's possible, I suppose, that this bug not only prevented you from updating the clips to a new duration, but made it impossible to add the transition to the clips.
After importing your images with the Ken Burns checkbox on, you might try dragging the source image out of the iMovie trash, described here:
