Question about unwelcome new feature: Hyperlink to URL added step

Does anybody know how to, in Numbers 3.0, remove the (very unwelcome) added feature when you click on an active URL, asking if you want to edit it or open it? (Instead of assuming that you want to open it in a browser window, and doing so forthwith.)
To explain that in more detail:
How it used to work. One of the most valuable (to my company) features in the previous version of Numbers was the ability to use the HYPERLINK formula to create a column of URLs that could be clicked on in rapid succession, also using Command-Tab to switch between the browser and Numbers. That is, in Column A you would have a list of domain names, say, 100 of them that you needed to check. In Column B, you would use this formula to create 100 clickable hyperlinks: =HYPERLINK("http://www."&A)
Numbers didn't "stop to ask" if you wanted to open the URL: it assumed, that if you clicked on it, that you wanted to open it up in your browser window.
How it works now: You can use the same formula, but when you click, the extra step has been added of asking if you want to "edit" or "open".
I'm wondering if there's some way around this, to remove this extra step.

John,
Yes, works the same way here. I'll add it to my list of things that are gone. This one will have to get an asterisk since it's not so much gone as lass convenient.

  • Two questions about the new iWeb

    Hi
    I've got two questions about the new iWeb.
    1. Is it possible to blog online now? Meaning adding a new blog entry without having to be on your own Mac? This is a feature I've been waiting for since iWeb first was released.
    2. Is it possible to choose the format of images? Earlier editions had the option to "optimize" images but that meant it changed it into .png meaning the site got a lot heavier than if .jpg was used. And since I have relatives who still only have an isdn connection I need to be able to have the website as light as possible.
    thanks

    Ah well... thanks for the quick answer

  • Question about the new Yoga 10 HD+

    Hi
    A few questions about the new Yoga 10 HD+ which I hope you can answer.
    I bought the old model last year. Loved the design and long battery time but a few major issues made me return it.
    Somewhere I read that it can't read NTFS over USB so I presume that's the same with an NTFS formatted microSD card?
    Can it read exFAT formatted microSD cards?
    Anyone observed issues regarding audio over bluetooth?
    (I know BT isn't exactly High End HiFi but the old Yoga 10 for some odd reason - most likely a driver issue which nobody cared to fix - sounded *much* worse with quite noticeably distortion while both my phone and a cheap noname tablet I have zero fidelity issues - no matter which of my bluetooth audio devices I tried aptX or not)
    So to avoid buying this only to return it too I really would like to see if I can have my questions answered before buying it.
    While I love the form factor and long running time the above issues are just two mayor dealbreakers to me. Bad audio quality = no joy listening to spotify, local MP3s etc. No NTFS or exFAT = no large movies.
    My old noname android tablet really could use an upgrade so I'm really curious whether this can be it or I should look at the competition and sacrify form factor and battery runtime.
    Thanks in advance.
    EDIT:
    If it's not supporting either NTFS or exFAT on the microSD have anyone tried ext3 and/or ext4?
    I mean with Androids Linux roots it should be a nobrainer to support at least when it comes to royalties unlike NTFS or exFAT where there *might* be some issues with Microsoft.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thanks!
    OK. Seems I should just stay clear of this and look elsewhere
    Sony for sure I know support exFAT. I'm usure about Samsung. Odd it seems so hard to find out. File sizes of +4 GB should be taken for granted - it's not 199x anymore...
    Oh well. Wonder whether to just go for one from the competition or perhaps just save the money and wait until 64 bit catches on. Rumors is that the next Nexus 8 will be 64 bit... (I really don't expect an answer on this)

  • A question about my new T500...

    Hello all -- I am new here, and have a quetion about my new T500:
    My new machine is a Lenovo Thinkpad T500, with Vista 64 bit installed. It is a pretty neat machine, as far as I can tell so far. This is my first laptop and my first experience with Vista after years of XP. My general computer knowledge is somewhat limited.
    So here is my question. All have in the machine so far is Vista and Microsoft Office Home and Student, along with whatever Lenovo preinstalls. I plan to install Photoshop CS4 and Capture NX but have not done so yet, nor have I downloaded any photos or anything. When I go into "Computer" from the start menu it indicates that I only have 99 gigs free in my 160 gig hard drive! I did a quick add up of the visible programs installed in Vista and I get only about 1.2 gigs worth, and there seems to be about another 1.5 gigs of utilities in one partition. What could be occupying the other 58 or so gigabytes??? Vista cannot be this big, can it? How can I find out what is on the HD other than the visible installed programs?
    Any help with this mystery will be very much appreciated. I am mystified!
    Many thanks in advance...

    I am sure this has been decribed many times ... but here it goes anyway  
    If the actual hard drive (*not* partition!) is 160 gig (written on it), first of all it will only have about 154Gb actual space to be used by the computer - just the thing how manufacturers count those bytes.
    Lenovo has a restore partition, I don't remember the exact size (I have deleted it), but it would be around 15Gb if I remember correctly. You also have a startup partition probably (1.5Gb). You can find out what partitions you have in Computer Management. Just open Vista start menu, type in Computer Management (into the search box at the bottom), then open Storage --> Dist Management. Here you will see the partitions. You can read around these forums and other places on the internet how you can get rid of the restore partition if you really do not want it. But don't go just deleting it right away.
    Vista x64 takes about a good 20 gigs on your hard drive. Do remember, that because Vista 64 includes WOW64 (Windows on Windows) that means that many things are essentially duplicated: once for the 32 bit applications and once for the 64 bit applications. That is why Vista x64 is larger than Vista x86 (32bit). However, you need x64 if you have 4Gb of RAM. However also remember, that when you look at the C:\WINDOWS folder, that inside there are also "symlinks" to files. So if you just count everything you will get a bigger size than what it actually takes up.
    You have hibernation enabled (by default), so if you have 2Gb of RAMs thats another 2Gb, if you have 4Gb of RAM, thats another 4Gb of space.
    The paging file by default takes up a variable amount of space, could be anything between 3-6Gb (if you have 4Gb of RAM).
    So that's about it.  If you add those up (in case of 4Gb of RAM) you get about 46-47Gb of space, at least. Plus any applications and utilities, drivers, etc you have. Lenovo systems by default come with quite a few things.
    Windows has probably system restore enabled, which eats up yet again hard drive space.  
    You can turn things off and tune your system if you really feel that you are running out of space. But until then I would not worry too much about it. You can find many guides around the internet on how to affect various things I referenced above.
    If you want to see hidden files (like paging file and hibernation file) you can turn that feature on in Vista. That will certainly help you see most of the things that take up space (not everything). You can find many tutorials by googling, such as
    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial130.html 
    Hope this helps  

  • Question about using new battery in old Powerbook

    I have a pre-intel Powerbook G4, and the battery is pretty much toast (lasts about 15 minutes now). I have ordered a new battery for it, and I have this question about using it:
    Am I smarter to keep the new strong battery out of the PB most days (as I usually work with it plugged in at home) and just pop it in when I know I will be out surfing on batteries? Or is it just as good living in my laptop 24/7 and only occasionally being called upon to do its job?
    Current bad Battery Information below:
    Battery Installed: Yes
    First low level warning: No
    Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 1144
    Remaining Capacity (mAh): 1115
    Amperage (mA): 0
    Voltage (mV): 12387
    Cycle Count: 281
    thanks folks, Shereen

    Hi, Shereen. Every Powerbook battery wants to be used — drained and then recharged — at least every couple of weeks. If you've always used your Powerbook on AC power nearly all the time, and not followed that pattern of discharging and recharging the battery every week or two, it's possible that your use habits have shortened the lifespan and prematurely diminished the capacity of your old battery. Of course it's also possible that your battery is merely old, as a battery's capacity also diminishes with age regardless of how it's used. You didn't say how old the battery is in years, so this may or may not be an issue. I mention it only because it can be an issue.
    For general information on handling a battery for the longest possible lifespan, see this article. My advice on the basis of that article and long experience reading these forums is that it would be OK to do as you propose, but I doubt that you'd derive any significant benefit from it. You would still want to be sure of putting the new battery through a charge/discharge cycle every week or two, even if you didn't have a reason to use the Powerbook away from home or your desk, because sitting unused outside the computer is just as bad for a battery as sitting unused inside it. And you should never remove the battery from your computer when it's completely or almost completely discharged and let it sit that way any longer than a day or two.

  • I have a question about japan new depriciation engine using non-japanese chart of deprication

    Hi, all
    I have a question about link between new depriciation engine and chart of depriciation.
    My client want to use US chart of depriciation as standard chart of depriciation becuase it has already standard setting like IAS deprication keys.
    it means I have to create Japanese chart of depriciation by copying from US chart of depriciation(non-japanese sample(0JP))
    I have a little doubt about it. In my previous project, I copyed chart of depriciation by copy from Japan sample Chart of depriciation(0JP) stored in SAP.
    Is it possible to copy from non-japan sample charg of depriciation to using Japanese new depriciation engine? I worried some errors will occrues if I do not use sample chart of depriciation(0JP) .
    If I need to use sample Japanese chart of depriciation, please give me the idea why I need to use Japanese sample chart of depriciation. I want to know the examples of non-Japanese asset accouting consultants who have working experience in the area.
    Thank you.

    Hi, Narasimhulu
    Thank you for your support.
    My client use one COA to all over the world. And not only Japan, other country aslo use the COD which is copied from that of US. Basic reporting line is for USGAP. I will customize 2 depriciation ares, one for US GAP and another is JGAP. No need to create TAX realted customize.  It means it enought only adding Japanese new depriciation keys to Current US COD. No need to add more Japanese local requirements.
    In this case, I want to know follwoing point.
    I know COD controll depriciation keys, but I want to know more detail about COD, what kinds of controls COD do. What is Japanese local requirements. Why better to use COPY of JP COD.
    Thank you.

  • A question about the Calendar feature on a Samsung SCH-u410?

    I have an older Samsung SCH-u410, and I have a question about using the Calendar feature. I will set an event in the calendar and set a reminder. Then later I will turn the reminder off, but the alarm will still go off. Shouldn't setting the reminder box to off turn the alarm off. Am I forgetting to do something or is there a problem with my phone? Any info will be gratefully appreciated!!!! I can be e-mailed directly at >> personal information deleted <<
    Thanks,
    Randy
    Message was edited by: Verizon Moderator

        Thank you for your post Junebug. On most phones, turning the reminder off will stop the alarm from sounding. As this is a much older device, I don't have a phone to test. Have you tried removing the calendar event completely? Did you recently purchase this phone or have you had this for awhile?

  • Quick Questions about the New T530

    With the T530 finally showing up online for those of us in the U.S., I have thrown it into the pool of models I am considering and comparing it to the T520, but it is getting very hard to find information about it. Here are my top questions about it that I can not find answer to.
    #1: Can the backlight on the keyboard (if you choose to get one with it) be toggled? If so, would it be through bios, a key combo, or software?
    #2: Will accessories for the T520 be compatible with the T530? Including the 9-cell and the slice?
    #3: Because this is a new item, and there might be high demand, is there a possibility of shipments bottlenecking? I.E.: if I buy one right now, will my order get postponed multiple times and take months?
    Sorry if these answers have already been answered elsewhere, but I really did try (used Google and the forum search) to find the answers before posting. Plus, I'm sure there are a few people like me trying to decide between the T520 and Ivy-equipped T530, so maybe this thread will help them too.

    joshua144,
    This is a bit outside my area of expertise, but I don't think the slice battery from T420/T520/W520 generation will work on the new systems like T430/T530/W530 which require battery authentication.
    Check the tabook  http://www.lenovo.com/psref/pdf/tabook.pdf  to know which battery options are supported on which systems.  And note that the slice battery option for T520 is different than the slice battery option for T530.
    Just because the 28++ battery (from your link) is backwards-compatible with the older systems, does not mean the older batteries like 27++ are forward-compatible with the new systems.
    As for your other question about FN and CTRL, the FN button is still on the outside of the keyboard just like ThinkPad has always been.  And there is still the BIOS option to swap CTRL and FN.

  • Never owned a notebook before, questions about my new MBP

    I've never owned a notebook computer before, and I just bought a MBP last week... So far so great, I'm absolutely loving it. I was a PC user and made a very painless switch.
    Though I've got a few questions about what my new notebook can do. These questions are probably universally applicable to all notebooks, mac or otherwise, but I've received such positive help from these forums that I thought I'd ask here.
    1) What happens when I close the lid? I usually select SLEEP or SHUT DOWN first and wait for the action to complete, then close the MBP. WHat happens if I close it while the action is in progress? Or without selecting anything?
    2) When I leave my MBP alone for a while (notebook in the open position), the display dims and then eventually turns off. Is it sleeping? When it's asleep, can I still remote access it (VNC?) If not, is there a way to leave it running so that I can VNC into it, but turn the display off so that I don't run it needlessly?
    3) I use it as as desktop replacement, so I spend a good amount of time at my desk. When I'm done with it, I usually shut it down or sleep it and leave it plugged in. Is this OK for the battery, or should I not run the AC power when it's already charged?
    4) The MBP documentation recommends not moving the notebook while it is on (???). Does this honestly mean they recommend shutting the system down before getting up from the couch to move to the desk? What about sleeping it, e.g., can I sleep it or close the lid and then move it around?
    Thanks,
    D

    1) If you selected sleep it'll continue to do that. If you selected shutdown or retart then potentially that process can be halted and the system put to sleep right in the middle of it. If restarting or shutting down it's always best to let that finish.
    2) Yes, it'll go to sleep and should be signified by the pulsating sleep indicator.
    To access it via VNC you will need to send the "magic packet" to wake it first. This however requires an ethernet connection and will not work if connected wirelessly.
    3) It's fine, however you should stillstretch it legs on battery. I suggest you use your MBP on average for about an hour per day plus a calibration every 4-8 weeks.
    4) They probably mean that but there's no problem with moving your MBP while it's on. Just use common sense when doing so as jolts and shakes can damage the moving parts such as your hard drive. If you moving any great distance it's best to sleep it forst. Otherwise, if you're shuffling on the couch don't worry about it, just don't drop it etc.

  • Question about the new i5/i7 processors

    I have been wondering if anybody had a definitive answer as to whether the new i5 and i7 processors are the desktop chips or their mobile counterparts? I know previous gen imacs use mobile parts but I've heard conflicting reports about the new 27 inch imacs. Some people say they are using desktop parts now while others claim they are still mobile processors...does anybody here know? I can't seem to find the information because I'm not really a techie so I don't really understand intels system for identifying their processors. The reason I ask is I recently placed an order for the i5 imac, I was comparing some i5/i7 benchmarking tests and ultimately decided the i5 was more than up to the job...however, now I don't even know if I was comparing the right chips (I didn't know there were different versions of the i5 and i7). Also, I had some concern with the heat issue, from what I've read the i7 produces tremendous heat so I also factored that in to my decision. I know Apple makes quality stuff (I love my MBP) and they placed the GPU and CPU on opposite ends of the imac, AND it has 3 fans AND the back is basically a HUGE heatsink lol...but I still wonder if the heat will cause the i7 to have a shorter expected life than the i5?(which is also pretty hot I guess). I thought I had my mind made up but this is turning out to be a very confusing process for me. If heat will effect the life cycle with only a relatively small power boost I'll stick with the i5...but if the versions of the chips they are using are mobile or not going to have this problem than I don't know what to do lol. Also, could you replace the i5 with an i7 later on down the road? AHHHH....can somebody help I'm spending so much money here I don't want to make a mistake :/

    thanks for the help everyone. After reviewing all the information I think I'm gonna go with the i7...it will be $180 for me because of a student discount so in the end I guess thats not too much to pay for the increased speed and hyper-threading (which I probably will see no benefit from now but down the road...who knows). I had to cancel my order for the i5 anyway because after going into the Apple store last night to fondle the 27 inch imacs (which I hadn't seen in person yet) I realized I did not like the new keyboard ( don't get me wrong its a nice product but I use the Adobe CS4 software for digital art and animation so so lacking a numerical keypad for keystroke shortcuts is a little impractical for me).
    Since I had to cancel and reorder anyway I'm now thinking I may as well upgrade to the i7 and be done with the doubting my decision lol. I haven't pulled the trigger yet but I will probably order today. Apparently the i5 and i7 have the same wattage so I guess if one will overheat the other will too so that kills that debate in my my mind.
    BTW if anybody has not yet seen the 27 inch imacs in person yet they are behemoths...beautiful behemoths. I can't wait to have that much canvas space to paint in Photoshop.
    Thanks again everyone.
