Opening .xls in pages

hello does anybody know how to open an .xls file in pages...i can't seem to be able to do it

Unfortunately, AppleWorks isn't able to open newer (last year or two) Excel or Word files. Microsoft has made significant changes to the formats, even for PC Word 2003 & Mac Word 2004, that the translators in AppleWorks no longer work.

Numbers not opening .xls files (same with pages...)

hi,
just got my new imac and i've been searching for information as to why i can't open .xls or .doc files in iwork. everything is up to date. it worked on my old mac. any suggestions? i tried renaming the extensions to .numbers or .pages and still won't open.
thanks,
susan

If you are trying to open them by double-clicking on the document, then select one of the documents. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Open With panel select Pages from the dropdown menu then click on the Change All button. Repeat for .xls files except choose Numbers.
Or open the files from within Numbers or Pages using the File menu in the program. Then save the file as a Numbers or Pages document using Save As (hold down the OPTION key and select Save As in the File menu.

When viewing documents on a Web Server, IE automatically opens a blank page and then opens the document in the default program. The blank screen should close automatically but isn't happening.

So here is the situation, my company uses a third party scanning software, that puts documents scanned or created onto a webserver. We use a program that grants a user access to view the documents on the webserver. The user will have to log into the system
using credentials, we have Kerberos doing this. Once the user is logged onto the system they navigate to the document they want to view or edit. So the user wants to view a .pdf file, they click the document they want, and it is supposed to open in the default
program associated with file extension. ie: .doc would open Word, .xls would open Excel. When the document is loading in the default program Internet Explorer opens a blank page, this page is supposed to prompt the user if they want to open or save the document.
(I changed the registry to have the files selected to automatically open without this prompt.) The blank screen generated is still staying open, this screen is supposed to close automatically after the prompt or close automatically after the document is opened.
So when a user is looking at several documents, this floods the screen with all these blank Internet Explorer pages. This problem is only occurring for users that have Windows 7 PC's, XP users do not have this problem at all. My PC is the only one in the company
that is Windows 7 64-bit, and working properly with the IE blank page automatically closing. I'm wondering what can be done to fix this problem, is it as simple as registering some .dll files or do I need to make a registry change? Any help would greatly be
appreciated.

What is the registry change exactly? Sounds like one which is supposed to avoid the prompt. I know
that there used to be such a thing, before the new prompt and I know that some users think that there should be such a thing for any program but I'm not sure if that expectation is valid or not. I think this may also be related to a concurrent change
in the OS. E.g. in XP we had File Types Options editor but starting in Vista that was removed. You might get some more clues on this tack from NirSoft's FileTypesMan utility.
The registry change that I did was to remove the open and save prompt. I will be sure to look into that. Our company
isn't worried about the user's automatically opening the files since they are all trusted. They also do not have the ability to install anything, so if they were to download a potentially harmful file they could never install it. We monitor downloads as well,
if they download files off the internet that aren't work related we remove their download capabilities.
Sounds like a scenario for using ProcMon to take two traces and compare them for their essential differences.
I talked to my boss about using this tool and he is worried about using it. I'm only an intern at my office and do not have the authority to use a program without their knowledge or consent. I will run the idea by them again and see if it's okay I use this.
I'll maybe make some presentation about how it can help us with our problem and how much time and money it will save. Because I really want to get down to the bottom of this.
Probably the most significant thing is going to be the Content-type that the files are being served by.
You could use the Developer Tools, Network Capture to check on that and ProcMon could help explain what happens after that. A related workaround to change the symptom when the Content-type is not what is expected is to disable MIME Sniffing (e.g. in
Security options, Miscellaneous section). In fact, perhaps that could explain your machine's difference with anyone else? MIME Sniffing is a default, previously known as "save according to type not extension" (or some such wording).
Okay I will be completely honest I have no idea how to use Developer Tools (F12), yes I could google it, when I tried using it on the blank pages it would never work, I also have no idea what I'm looking at. I should mention that I do not have access to
the web server. Our programming and development side only has access to our AS400, which is where the web server is located. I do have MIME Sniffing enabled and so does everyone else. I may be wrong but, I believe it is needed in order to open the file extension
in the correct default program, yes? I thought MIME Sniffing would see a .docx file and then find the appropriate program to open that .docx file in. I may be wrong but I know it's used somehow along these lines.

Iphone wont open xls email attachment

I need to be able to open .xls email attachments on my iphone 3GS from a major customer which i receive regularly but get the following error:
*This document can't be viewed. An error occured while reading the document.*
I can open the same .xls file on my macbook pro using excel:mac2008 although i get a message first 'file error data may have been lost' which i just need to click ok and the file opens normally.
I have tried downloading 'Quickoffice' to the iphone but makes no difference.
My previous phone with windows mobile opened the same .xls attachement with no problem.
I need to solve this, please can anyone help?

I ran into a similar problem. I have a vendor that embedds HTML data in an xls file and just hits save. Problem is that the iPhone viewer tries to open it as xls instead of html (and says invalid file format).
I opened the file in Excel 2003 (windows version gasp), then clicked on File > Save As and low and behold it's default was .html (indicating that is how it was saved orginally). I changed it to a normal Excel Workbook (.xls) saved, and re-emailed it and it worked fine. Also it works if I just change the file extension to .html.
So for whatever reason the iPhone viewer cannot handle an html page saved with an xls extension.
Since your sender will not change his ways, you could write some code to intercept the email, change the file extension, and resend it.

Open Skillbuilders modal page from report

I want to open the Skillbuilders modal page from within a report. The first column in a report represents the primary key of the table the report shows. What is the best way to do that?
The idea is this: in the report region, there's a button CREATE that opens the modal dialog by Skillbuilders. A user can enter some data, clicks submit, modal dialog closes and report is refreshed. That's working now. Now I want to add a link to the first column in the report, that also opens the modal dialog, passing the value of the primary key of the row the user clicks on.
I'm not that experienced with Javascript, I guess I'll have to create an dynamic action with a jquery selector, and as a true action, a javascript call to open the dialog. Can someone give me a start?
Thanks in advance!

You actually do not need that much javascript in this case. Simply design your column as you would normally do to create a link column.
<ul>
<li>Column Link: Provide a link text</li>
<li>Link Attributes: onclick="return false;" class="show_modal"</li>
<li>Set the target page and provide any items you want filled.</li>
</ul>
onclick="return false;" is to prevent the default behaviour of the anchor tag: navigate to the location specified in the href attribute. We want to open the modal page instead.
Now to have the modal dialog open, create a dynamic action.
<ul>
<li>Event: Click</li>
<li>Selection Type: jQuery Selector</li>
<li>jQuery Selector: .show_modal</li>
<li>Advanced > Event Scope: live (so the links will work after pagination)</li>
</ul>
For the true action, select the SkillBuilders Modal Page plugin, and make sure these are specified as following. This will take the location in the generated link columns and open a modal page for this location.
So, this would open your edit page with the correct id (which you set up in the column link).
</ul>
<li>URL Location: Attribute of Triggering Element</li>
<li>Attribute Name: href</li>
</ul>
If you set it up like this, you have the convenience of the standard column link definitions, no need for any javascript save onclick=false and no need to fill up page items and deal with submission to session state.

Safari on iPod touch will no longer open any web pages even after reset.

My iPod touch will no longer open any web pages via Safari. I am connected to WiFi and other apps work fine (mail for example). I connected to Itunes and did a reset - still no luck. S/w is up to date for this version of touch - 4.x.
Please help with any ideas?

hello susnyk, please see [[Fix problems connecting to websites after updating Firefox]] &

Can not open any web page in Safari

can not open any web page in Safari on the IPad. All other wireless features work fine.

If this does not work then try a reset ,
Reset your iPad by pressing the 'Sleep' and 'Home' button at the same time for about 15 seconds or so. Your iPad will then go through a reset / reboot procedure and will be ready for use within about a minute.
Don't worry about doing this as you will not lose data or settings.
Good luck and do report back.

Pages 08 won't open my old pages file

I just upgraded to Pages 08 and when I try to open the file I was working on yesterday, with the previous version of pages, it says "The document...couldn't be opened". How can I open the old pages file with the new version?

It may be useful to trash the preferences file:
<bootVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist
But I'm afraid that the document is corrupted.
Control click its icon then select the "Show package's contents" in the contextual menu.
The standard contents is:
Contents
QuickLook
index.xml.gz
The described message is displayed when there is no "index.xml.gz" (or "index.xml") file.
It is also displayed when the "index.xml.gz" (or "index.xml") is badly formed.
The index may be dropped when the documents where stored on an iDisk.

Opens Webmail login page instead of sso login page after changing the webma

Hi Gurus,
I have setup notes webmail in portal which uses SSO. I login to portal and click the webmail link which opens the sso page for authentication(Cuz I have integrated the webmail to use SSO). I enter my username and password. Then it shows my emails, inbox..etc. I logout of portal, Go to Notes client on my PC and change my webmail password there. I go back to portal and log in and click the webmail link on the portal. Cuz I have changed the webmail password, I expected that it will open the SSO page and ask me to enter the password again. It didn't happen. Instead of opening eh SSO login page, It opens the Webmail login page with an error saying "Invalid User Name or Password". I am wondering why it opens the webamil login page instead the sso login page. I can still login to webmail If I enter the user name and new password. But it doesn't update the webmail password which is stored in the SSO. Please post a reply if you have some idea about fixing this.
Thanks

but right now , i do not know what is my jsp file url
as you know portlets are deployed diffrent than plain web jsf application.
I find that if i use

it will open the page , but unfortunetly it return an error like :
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the web application. Please review the following stack trace for more information regarding the error.

and some stack trace.
how i can fix this problem ?
thank you

In portlet project, to navigate between pages, you should not use the URL property to link to a page. Instead, portlets use navigation via action handling. You use the Page Navigation editor to set up links to pages; that is, the navigation editor sets the action property.
Here is an example to hyperlink ans button to open a new page:
# From within the IDE, create a new portlet project. This action creates the project and one page, PortletPage1.jsp.
# Create a second portlet page, called PortletPage2.jsp, for the project.
# Drop a Hyperlink component onto the first portlet page, PortletPage1. (You can drop the Hyperlink on the page in the Design window or on the PortletPage1 node in the Outline window.) Change the Hyperlink's text property to Next Page.
# Drop a Button component (found in the Basic section of the Palette) onto the second portlet page, PortletPage2.
# Open the Page Navigation Editor. It displays the two pages (PortletPage1.jsp and PortletPage2.jsp) of the application.
# Click the PortletPage1.jsp icon in the Navigation window to expand it, and then drag a connector from hyperlink1 to PortletPage2.jsp. Change the name of the connector from case1 to Page2.
# Click the PortletPage2.jsp icon in the Navigation window to expand it, and then drag a connector from button1 to PortletPage1.jsp. Change the name of the connector from case1 to Page1.
# Run and deploy the portlet. The browser displays PortletPage1 and you should see the Next Page hyperlink. When you click the Next Page hyperlink, the Apache Pluto Portal server displays PortletPage2. Click the Page2 button to return to PortletPage1.
