Sequential dates in new numbers 3.0 does it still do it??

sequential dates in new numbers 3.0 does it still do it??
Hi Gang, Happy New Year.
I am attempting to add sequential dates into my budget planner for the new year.
I know the old one could do it.
I can do sequential numbers in 3.0, just not able to do the date thing, it just keep cycling the four dates ( 4 cells ) i have highlighted
when i drag centre dot instead of adding the next later sequential date.
I have tried a few different types of date formats.
Any help welcome please.
Cheers Jason.

Hi Team, apparently you can do it.
You JUST CANNOT USE A DATE FROM LAST YEAR AND HAVE IT CARRY OVER TO THIS YEAR!
However an adendum to this now it is doing it for dates crossing yrs too.
I do not know what I did differently.... time spent checking it out ..... lots of times....
the dates go all funny when you cross years. I was putting a week between dates - 7 days - and as you can see
by the screen shot, the days vary anywhere from 4,5,6 or 7 days depending on its mood.
all sequences were started with the first 2 dates in the sequence.
The only one that worked is the one where both start dates are in January '14.
So if you do this please check the accuracy of auto fill.
So after all this, it would have been quicker to fill it in by hand, one cell at a time.
Apple please fix this. See sequence screen shot below. Cheers from Jason.
Keep on working on all this Apple, we may stick with you yet.
check 9 jan to 13 Jan, then 20 Jan to 26 Jan?? Oh well, bug found........... : )

I am looking into Buying Retail a New Blackberry Q10. Doing this to avoid having to Give up my old Data Plan. Have read that when you activate a new Phone it forces you to pick a new Plan. Is this True? and How to I avoid this? 20 Year Verizon Client

I am looking into Buying Retail a New Blackberry Q10. Doing this to avoid having to Give up my old Data Plan. Have read that when you activate a new Phone it forces you to pick a new Plan. Is this True? and How to I avoid this? Any other advise in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

The only "unlimited" plan I can think of where this would not apply is the old Connect plan for multimedia/basic phones. That unlimited data, on devices such as the LG Voyager, EnvTouch, and other "multimedia" devices is not the same.
If you currently have an individual $29.99 unlimited data plan with a 3G Smartphone, then you can buy a BBQ10 retail and activate it with the same data plan and keep the unlimited.

Downloaded new numbers app. Now no table headings. Solution? Also in table headings/title want to add current date as did in old numbers. How do I do it? Thanks

Down loaded new numbers app. Now no table headings. Solution? Also. How do I include current date as part of new table heading, I had this included in old numbers spreadsheet title?

Hi,
Do you mean no table name?
Or table header row?
You can get the current date in a table heading with NOW, which in the formula editor now looks like this:
Which you can format this way:

Data of two companies erased after doing a New ID

Hello everyone,
We are working with SAP BPC 5.1 MS. We created two companies and have been working with them for a few days (consolidation, introducing data etc.). After this, in order to change de ID of the companies we did a New ID in the administration console. The process of the dimension failed, and after that we realized that both companies have changed the ID correctly, but all the data of the companies was erased.
Has anything similiar happened to anyone before? We have been using the 'New ID' functionality quite often and never we never had any kind problems.
Thanks in advance,
Best Regards.

Hi,
First we need to understand what was the error message.
Of course for old id data was deleted. You will find the data into new id.
May I ask you what was the process to change the id?
Did you use NEW ID property from dimension?
Kind Regards

Is there a layout view in the New Numbers?

Hi there,
I loved the layout view. I could work with my document, add and remove cells, resize the documents before I decided to print. Now I can't do the rezing before I print, so I have to go to print to see how it is layed out on the page and if I don't like it, I can't add / delete / resize cells without backing out into the edit pane..
This makes my editing more time consuming..
Does anybody know if there is a way to replicate this funcionality in the new numbers??
Thanks
Chad

Barry,
The temporary solution you sent me will allow me to edit my existing files. I received another file from an iPad today and that would not open it without version 3.0. I am now behind 50 reports that cannot be billed because of formatting problems. My records [reports] are reviewed by 3 national inspection agencies as well as state and local agencies. These agencies have the ability to shut the major corporations and municipal operations down based on my records. My records can not be late incomplete or inaccurate..
     I must conclude that IMac and Ipad’s are no longer suitable for business use for myself or my sister companies. The IMac’s can still be used with office for mac but the Ipad’s must be used for pictures and music at home. I will advise all sister companies that I will no longer accept data in pages or numbers and can no longer provide reports for their technicians in those programs.
     I am deeply disappointed that after almost 2 years development that proved to be a great savings in time due to iMac iPhone and iPad dependability the project must be scrapped because an update did not add features or correct problems. It removed features and added problems. The reports sent to me from Ipad’s must be completely rebuilt before they can be used. They were emailed which further degrades their usability.
         I will go this evening and purchase Windows products that are suitable for business. I can not wait until Macintosh gets around to a fix [if they do] Because of the numerous hours spent converting these forms to mac and now back to Microsoft I am extremely offended at the lack of consideration for my time and support. Between reports I will take my break and get my frustrations out by writing bad reviews on every business forum I am a member of or simply can find. You are costing me money time and frustration.
         My conclusion in every forum will be Macintosh systems are very dependable but cannot be trusted due to software changes that delete common features necessary to do business. They are not concerned with your business or time. They may or may not react but as a business consumer I have to get the job done not wait for them to realize their mistakes and get around to making the products they sell usable.

HT202879 new numbers version is a total disaster.... unbelievable ...

New numbers is a total disaster...
I don't know who was the project manager of this new edition but He or She has apparently never been involved into business...
Spending so much time and finally realizing that some major features have actually and simply disappeared...
To split a cell is now unpossible... to just add the footnote of your sheet is not possible ... etc...
waow I am impressed by such a mess up...

Erik,
I doubt if any of us here on the forum has any meaningful data to support or refute a statement that "most of us agree" that Numbers 3 is a "disaster" or "backwards." Different people use an application in different ways, and I would guess recently there a lot of new people trying it out now because it is now free.
The new Numbers is a *huge* improvement for businesses that want to do data entry on mobile and have it sync back to the Mac or that want some degree of on-line collaboration. The old Numbers was unfortunately crippled in those key areas of productivity enhancement.
The new Numbers is not as good as the old Numbers for people whose spreadsheet use is geared toward traditional printing of highly formatted documents, or who have become heavily attached to some of the niche features in the old version (though there are many workarounds).
The fact that the new Numbers does not implement splitting of cells is arguably a good thing. That encourages good spreadsheet design. Splitting and merging cells spells trouble. There are always ways to achieve the same effect in other ways.

How do I sort or reorganize while using the new Numbers 3.0

How do I sort or reorganize while using the new Numbers 3.0; I can't seem to find the sort icon.
Thanks
ActiveSolutions

Yes, I understand the convenience of the old Reorganize panel. I thought it was great. The problem is (I'm guessing) that it is really hard to do something like that in Numbers iOS and Numbers for iCloud. So they gave us features that are more likely to work across all platforms.
If you need to sort just selected rows you could put the =A&C&B formula (or whatever order you need) in just the rows you need to sort. Leave the other cells in column D blank.
Or, if you're doing a LOT of partial sorting like that maybe you should have the data in separate tables anyway.
Not saying it's great... just saying there are workarounds... until (if) something like the Reorganize panel comes back by popular acclaim.

Recovering Old Datas on New Drive + Setting Airport Extreme Base Station old and new ones

Hello All,
Situation:
-iMac 24" Alu/2008/2.8 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo/ 2Go DDR2 SDRAM
-2 Airport Extreme Base Stations mushroom type,
-1 Airport Extreme Capsule Model: A1143
The original 320 Go Hard Drive of my iMac crashed few months ago. A "technician" installed a new Hard Drive 235 Go while trying to recover all datas from old one. Failed.
No back up. The old disc needs to be unlocked in a dustless atmosphere. Quite expensive at the moment.
I decided to install OS X from sratch with the original Install Disc delivered with my iMac.
OS X is 10.5
Once on line I updated all pre-installed softwares. Among which Aiport Utility 5.6.1 today.
Problem:
I would like to get bigger hard drive disc, 1To for example. Does this still exist for this iMac 2008 Alu ?
How can I do to get my iMac again to OS X 10.9 ?. Does this mean I need to buy all intermediate levels again ?
How do I get my softwares (the ones on the original Disc: Pack office, Pages, Numbers, etc ...) back on track again, since my iMac is now more like down to factory level ?
Extending my internet provider from the WiFi router via my 3 Airport Extreme Base Stations: 2 mushroom type that need OS X + Airport Utility softwares at a certain level, while the Capsule might need another level. Right now I tried to set up the 3 of them with this Aiport Utility and though they all recognize the provider network, I can never conclude to extend it with the Base Stations: it drops the case. (WDS trouble which I don't even know what it is, or the Base Station simply desapears from Airport Utility scan, ...)
Thank you all for you attention.
Your comments are welcome especially if you have any knowledge on these various subject.
Can't wait to read your piece of advice.
Lionnel From Paris (France).

me too... i connected my hard drive with all my music but i cannot see any of the music that used to be in my itunes... i checked and its there (when I connect the HD directly to my computer) but not when is plugged into the Airport Extreme... Please help!

Where has text auto complete gone in new numbers

Before I upgraded to new Numbers yesterday 24/10/2013 it was possible to have auto complete suggest words
previously typed in cells. This feature does not seem to exist in the latest version of numbers
Can anyone help... thanks

Hi enuenu,
Apple seems to be actively developing iWorks apps again after a long hiatus. The big push has been to make the apps work well with both Macs and iOS devices, something that MS has not been able to match. The tradeoff so far has been elimination of some features that are hard to implement in iOS. Apple has announced in this support document that auto-complete and several other features will be reintroduced, however.
But even after "auto-complete" is brought back you might want to consider formatting the cells in the column as Pop-Up Menu if you frequently enter repeating values in a column and don't want to type the same text over and over again.
In many situations, particularly if you want to avoid typos or capitalization inconsistencies creeping in and messing up your data, Pop-Up Menu is better than "auto-complete." It is much enhanced over what it was in Numbers 2.3, and is easy to set up:
Select the whole column or range before formatting as Pop-Up Menu and your existing values in that column or range will pre-populate a menu automatically:
Then you can remove the values you don't want in the list, such as the column header (and possibly some previous spelling errors too!):
And after this easy one-time setup all you have to do thereafter is to choose from the pop-up list when you add rows:
See this post for more details on how this handy feature has been enhanced in Numbers 3.0.
If you want to use Numbers on an iPad or iPhone, in a touch interface pop-ups are far more efficient than typing the first few letters of items. You can scroll with ease through a list of dozens of items to make a pick. Anybody using Numbers cross-platform should favor Pop-Up so they can use their documents efficiently for data input on the go, which can be a productivity booster.
Also, auto-complete is not as good a choice as Pop-Up Menu even for keyboard-intensive work on the Mac if you've got numerous hard-to-spell values, particularly if some are capitalized and some not, where the capitalization can be significant. The Pop-Up Menu approach, unlike auto-complete, eliminates spelling inconsistencies or lack of capitalization when there should be capitalization, etc.
See this thread for this and other workarounds for Numbers 3.0.

How can I convert an old Numbers file to be compatible with the new Numbers version, without having access to the old?

I received a Numbers file created in iWorks version 8 or earlier, but only have the newest version of Numbers on my MacBook Air. I can't request the sender to reformat the file. Is there any way to convert the file so I can open it in the new Numbers version?

Are you sure you don't still have Numbers from iWork '09 on your MacBook Air. My Mid 2012 does. To be certain you can look in the Applications folder to see if there is an iWork 09 folder. You can also use Spotlight search to see if it will find that Numbers as well as the current one.
If you do find to 09 version: iWork '09 and iWork '08: File compatibility

Hi Adrian,
Why don't you try any another software for opening CSV files then Notepad ? According to my experience, you can use these softwares to open an CSV files and they are:-
Microsoft Excel
Open Office Calc
Google Docs
Also there is an additional tool available known as CSV viewer. You may try this, download it from here http://www.csvviewer.com/
I've never used Notepad for opening CSV files, because sometimes it contains some symbols which are not not at all compatibile with Notepad.

I upgraded to the new Numbers, but when I try to open an edited spreadsheet, I get this: "You need a newer version of Numbers to open this spreadsheet. You can download the latest version of Numbers from the Mac App Store." Help!

When I check for upgrades, my computer "No updates available" and says "OS X Update Version 10.9.2 installed Mar 9, 2014."
When I go to the app store to get the new Numbers, it says "installed".
I shut down and rebooted my computer, but I still get the message that says I need new Numbers to open the spreadsheet that I want to open. I can open other spreadsheets, those all work. I just can't open the one I want. Please help. I need the data on that spreadsheet TODAY!!!

I uploaded that new IOS 8.0 and now I cannot open my mail, Safari, or the new "TIPS" app. Does Apple have some sort of help, other than going to a store that is over 40 miles away?

I do backup with iCloud. I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud.
I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

I managed to transfer the music from 1 pc to 1 other pc (to be played by iTunes). Bit didn't fixe the transfer of the meta data (for example the rating). Does anyone know how to use your old playlists, etc..(= meta data) on the other PC? So, please help!

I managed to transfer the music from 1 pc to 1 other pc (it is played perfectly on the other PC (Windows 7- pc) by the newly downloaded and installed iTunes, version 10.6.1.7). But I didn’t fix the transfer of the meta data (for example the rating). Does anyone know how to use (or import) your old playlists, etc..(= meta data) on the other PC? So, short: how to migrate the meta data from one pc to an other pc?
It's a pity that it seems not to be possible to import on the new pc e.g. the ratings!!!
I don't want to start again with rating my (beautiful classical) music!

In the new Numbers, How can I get a 2D stacked column chart to display only 1 column?

This is one of those things that I find really strange about Numbers 3. The control for what you want to do is not where anyone would expect to find it.
Select the Chart
Click on Edit Data References
Look at the bottom left corner of the Numbers window. It should say "Plot Columns as Series" or "Plot Rows as Series"
Click on it and change it to the other
