PC excel spreadsheet to Numbers on iPhone...will it automatically update via iCloud?

If I upload an excel spreadsheet from my PC to Numbers on my iPhone....then make changes to the document using my iPhone....will iCloud automatically update the original file saved on my PC or do I have to download it from iCloud and replace the original file on my PC?

So, I do download it to my imac, make changes, save and then 'move to icloud'. But I don't see the changes when I open the spreadsheet again in my numbers app.
Seems to not be working properly.

My iPhone will not automatically backup to iCloud after iOS7 install

My iPhone 5 will not automatically backup to icloud anymore now that iOS7 has been installed. Steps I have tried so far...
Installed iOS7 through Software Update - relazed three days later that the phone was not backing up
Did a manual backup
Erased the entire phone
Restored from iCloud backup
Then reset all phone settings
Signed out of iCloud, deleted all data and then signed back in
Is anyone else having this issue after updating to iOS7?

my dear friend i have like your problem before and when i see alot of solution i find the one it work with me and
come autmatic again
take the solution:
Note that a manual backup also factors into the automatic backup schedule, meaning the next automatic backup will not occur until 48 hours later.
Actually the iCloud backup process sounds a bit more complicated than it actually is in practical use. You can’t schedule iCloud backups manually, but you don’t need to do so as iOS takes care of this for you, and it’s designed to be pretty transparent.
Once enabled, iCloud backups will run automatically whenever the following conditions are met:
Your device is powered on,
Your device is connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi,
Your device is connected to a power source,
Your device has the screen locked (i.e. turned off), and
It has been at least 24 hours since the last successful backup occurred.
In other words, your device may not be backed up to iCloud at the same time every day, but once 24 hours has elapsed the iPhone will make a backup as soon as it is plugged in and on Wi-Fi with the screen off. For example, if your iPhone backs up to iCloud at 10:00 pm tonight, but you don’t plug it in while on a Wi-Fi connection until midnight tomorrow night, the next backup will occur at midnight—basically as soon as you plug it in—and future backups will continue to run at midnight on subsequent days as long as the iPhone is plugged in, connected to Wi-Fi, and has the screen off at that time. If you’re working an irregular schedule and coming home at different hours, this may gradually push the backups to later at night, but the backup won’t be skipped if you miss the time window—it will still occur as soon as possible once all of the other conditions are met.
This does of course mean that sometimes backups can get pushed to the point where they may be delayed until the next night; come home at 10 a.m. on a Sunday morning and plug in your iPhone and that’s when your next backup will occur, but if you leave for work on Monday morning at 9:00 am and your phone isn’t plugged in and on Wi-Fi while at work, you won’t get another automatic backup until you get home and plug it in later that night.
You can check the time of the last successful iCloud backup by going into the Settings app on your iPhone and choosing Storage & Backup from the iCloud section.
You can also tap the “Back Up Now” button from this screen to create a manual iCloud backup at any time. To create a manual iCloud backup, your iPhone only needs to be on Wi-Fi, it does not need to be plugged in or have the screen off.
Note that a manual backup also factors into the automatic backup schedule, meaning the next automatic backup will not occur until 48 hours later.
This can be one method for adjusting to a specific backup time if you really feel the need to, but it’s largely unnecessary as iOS should naturally settle into a standard backup routine as long as your iPhone is regularly plugged in and on Wi-Fi for at least a few hours each day, such as while you’re sleeping.
As one last note, it’s also worth keeping in mind that the iPhone only needs to be connected to power with the screen off to start an iCloud backup; once the automatic backup has started, it will continue as long as the iPhone remains on a Wi-Fi connection, even if you unplug the iPhone or begin using it.

How to open Excel spreadsheet in Numbers.

Hey Kids:
I have trouble opening imported Excel spreadsheets in Numbers on my iMac. I have Mountain Lion 10.8.2. Previously I tried a demo of Office Mac that has expired. When I try to open an Excel spreadsheet I get a message to buy Office Mac. I've tried to put the demo application in the trash but I still can't open the Excel spreaddsheet and get a message that Excel is in the trash and can't open the spreadsheet.
HELP!

In addition to what Niel said...
In the Finder, click on an Excel file (.xls) to select it, press command-I to Get Info.
In the Info window, expand the Open with...section.
Click the pop-up menu bar in that section and choose Numbers '09.
Click the Change All button below the menu.
Repeat with a current version (.xlsx) file.
Regards,
Barry
PS: Unless you have something vital that you're storing in the Trash, you might also want to Empty the Trash to get rid of the Excel trial that's expired.

Linking Excel Spreadsheet to Numbers

I know how to place an Excel Spreadsheet into Numbers and subsequently save it as a Numbers file. Once the Numbers file is established is there a way to export data changes made while working in the original Spreadsheet in Excel direct to the Numbers file created without resaving a new file in Numbers ?

Hi Lawrie,
Numbers has a different philosophy from Excel. I find Numbers has a certain charm with its small, discrete tables on a canvas, instead of sheets that are "oceans" dotted with "islands" of data. Numbers allows data input tables, "engine room" tables where the serious number-crunching happens, and "presentation" tables for results.
Happy Numbers, and thanks for the two gold stars.
Regards,
Ian

Can I open an excel spreadsheet in NUMBERS complete with formulas?

Can I open an excel spreadsheet in NUMBERS complete with formulas?

Problem solved. I find that the excel file I was trying to convert was an .xlsx version and when I resaved it as an .xls file, I was then able to open it in NUMBERS complete with formulas.

When I sync my iPhone 5 to Outlook 2010, the email addresses that I have listed as Email 1 for any given contact in my iPhone will be automatically moved to Email 3 in the Outlook file. Is there a way to fix this?

When I sync my iPhone 5 to Outlook 2010, the email addresses that I have listed as Email 1 for any given contact in my iPhone will be automatically moved to Email 3 in the Outlook file. Is there a way to fix this?

iCloud email supports 'plus' addressing. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_address#Address_tags
So your friend could just add '+research' to the username part of your email address, and you setup a rule at icloud.com to put all emails sent to that address into a particular folder.
For example:
[email protected]
There's no way to do it without rules on the server though.

Garageband on my iphone will not allow saving to iCloud. I have GarageBand 1.2.1

Garageband on my iphone will not allow activation of icloud. I continually get an error message that 'you have not set up iCloud on this device, close garageband open the settings app and sign in to iCloud.' i am signed in. I have GarageBand 1.2.1
I have uninstalled and reinstalled GarageBand many times,
I can't share between iPhone and iPad which is really frustrating.
Is it an iCloud bug or a GarageBand bug?
Any ideas?

I have the same message! I just got a new iPad yesterday, to replace an old one. I also just bought $40 worth of extra iCloud storage space, and my iCloud from within GarageBand on my iPad won't work at all!!! It keeps saying the same message you stated above. I have been on the phone for literally hours with Apple iPad support on the phone yesterday and today, and it's still NOT FIXED.
APPLE, PLEASE HELP??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HOW CAN WE FIX THIS? I PAID EXTRA MONEY SO THAT I CAN HAVE MY MUSIC ON ICLOUD SHARED BETWEEN DEVICES.
I hope the answer comes swiftly!!!
Thanks!

TS1398 After leaving a wi-fi connection my iphone will not automatically connect to the internet via the 3G network unless I turn it off and then on again. Is there a setting that can be changed to overcome this issue?

After leaving a wi-fi connection my iphone will not automatically connect to the internet using a mobile 3G network unless I turn my phone off and then back on again. Is there a setting that can be changed to overcome this?

Then I'm at a loss. Mine has switched automatically from the start, favoring Wi-Fi, any of its registered networks, whenever available. Only thing I can think of is trying a Force Restart and see if that clears things up: hold down Home and Sleep till the screen goes black and a white Apple logo pops up. Release and allow it to restart.
May be similar, when I got the i5 about 16 months ago, the local carrier was starting to roll out 4G service. The phone would regularly lose all carrier connection, voice and data. Haphazardly would reconnect when it felt like it afterwards. Initially did the Off/On dance to speed things up, but discovered that using Airplane Mode would do the same without the lengthier power cycle. After awhile, the carrier 'fessed they were having capacity issues and later the problem went away. So yours too may also be a carrier issue.

Connect your phone to iTunes and in the Summary pane, hit the "Sync with this iOS device over Wi-Fi"

Hi, ok so at my old job i got given a laptop and i synced my iPhone to that laptop using iCloud, now i have left that job and i have bought my own macbook. I just linked my iPhone to my new macbook via iCloud and now pictures from my old work colleges

Hi, ok so at my old job i got given a laptop and i synced my iPhone to that laptop using iCloud, now i have left that job and i have bought my own macbook. I just linked my iPhone to my new macbook via iCloud and now pictures from my old work colleges that are obviously using that laptop have popped up on my new laptop, does that mean all my pictures in the last 3 months have been loa
ding onto that old work laptop as well as my new one??!!! if so how do i delete my pictures from the past 3 months off that old work macbook? HELP!!

If they are photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll, then delete them from photo stream. That will delete them from photo stream in iCloud and on any other devices/computers. Of couse it won't delete them if they have already been moved out of the photo stream album download folder on the work computer.
Then change your iCloud password so the old work computer no longer has access to your iCloud data or photo stream. See http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2617.

I have both my iPhone and iPad backing up via iCloud, but they are not sharing the information between devices ie if I purchase an app on one it does not transfer to the other although the backup is successful via iCloud.

I have both my iPhone and iPad backing up via iCloud but the data is not being shared between the devices. When I backup it appears to be working as there are no error messages but the data is not shared between each. Any help would be great as this is very frustrating.

Backing up to icloud is not the same as syncing data between devices. Go to
Settings>Store. Turn on the automatic downloads that you want on that screen.
Settings>iCloud. Turn on the features you want to sync between devices.

Replying to my own post - heh. I downloaded iExplorer (http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/) which allowed me access to the files on the phone and there was the phantom movie in the DCIM folder. Deleted it, and all is well - although I still have 0.65gb of Other in iTunes.....

If i update a book in iAuthor, will it automatically update online?

I have shared the book through email - will it automatically update once I make changes for my students?

No.
You need to mount a vocal campaign on your own to alert them all to go get the new version and delete the old, unless of course they need to keep the old one around, say, for notes and such.
