Sorry, wrong forum but....excel anyone?

Sorry this is the wrong forum but i was wondering if anyone knew how to stop the autocorrect thing in Microsoft Excel for Mac, every time i try to type 22.5 it changes it to 25 - Jan
Thanks, G

I sounds like you have formated the cell to an automatic date format.
Select the cell, choose Format->Cells, select the Numbers tab and select "General" under Category. Click OK.
That should do it.

  • I know this is the wrong forum, but- (Mac question)

    I know this is the wrong forum, but…
    Can anyone enlighten me?
    How did a folder named just "Adobe", containing only something called "Acrobat.com.app"), end up in my root Applications folder?
    Double clicking on "Acrobat.com.app" launches an installer that wants to install something called "AIR".  What is that and what is it needed for?
    What forum should I be posting this in?
    A global search and searches in the Acrobat Macintosh forum were not helpful.
    Can I just delete that Adobe folder or ignore it?  It has identical Creation and Modified dates of January 15, 2010 17:56, which raises more questions than it answers.
    Any input will be appreciated.

    …<snip>…
    P.S. what I wrote above is about the Windows version; I assume that the Mac versions are the same.
    Maybe… kinda, sorta…  There are no ".exe" files in the Mac world. 
    I've never downloaded or installed either Acrobat.com or Adobe AIR.  It has to have been the Acrobat Reader 9.3 update for the Mac that installed that sucker on my Mac. I had certainly never seen it before.
    That, on top of the inexcusable, abominably surreptitious "Growl" installed by Adobe behind my back, strengthens my resolve not to acquire any more Adobe products, free or otherwise. 
    What in blazes are the Adobe corporate folks thinking?

  • Wrong forum, but can't access correct one - need help with Safari

    I'm sorry to post this here, but the link to the Safari discussion forum is broken - I've tried it about 10 times!
    I've been having trouble with Safari 1.3, which quit every time I navigated to a page using a certain type of code (I don't know what it was, maybe Java or Flash?) Anyway, I downloaded the Safari 3 Universal version in the hope of improving it, but unfortunately that has completely killed off both Safari itself and Mail. I couldn't even use Firefox or Internet Explorer, although other programs such as Word and Photoshop were working fine. Trashing Safari and everything I could find related to it meant that Firefox would work (I'm using that now), but I still can't start Mail. I assume Mail needs Safari to be installled in order to work?
    I've tried to download Safari 1 again, but can only find links to download the 1.3 Updater, not the program itself. Of course, the Updater won't install because there's no previous version to load it onto. Can anyone help me with a suggestion as to where I go from here, please? I'd be hugely grateful, I don't mind not having Safari but I do really need to use Mail.
    Thank you!

    There are many, many millions of defective, nonstandard web sites, as a brody points out. You could, if you wished, make a crusade of asking their developers to make them accessible in every antique web browser: a crusade for which you would be rewarded with a brody's undying admiration, most of those incompetent website developers' annoyance, and nothing else.
    If instead you would rather just visit the sites and see what you can see of them, use Camino or Opera — the only up-to-date browsers that will run in OS X 10.3.9. Mozilla FireFox 2.0.20 will indeed run in your OS version, but it "is no longer supported and contains known security vulnerabilities" according to the Mozilla website. The more recent updates of FireFox (3.0 through 3.0.10) require OS X 10.4 or better.

  • Email notifications not being sent - SORRY - WRONG FORUM!  PLEASE DELETE!

    Hello all -
    I have two Mac Mini Servers - both running 10.6.5
    One server is within my LAN and behind an Apple Airport Extreme which is acting as a router.
    The other server is collocated and has a direct connection to the internet. It is running the standard OS X Server firewall service to protect it.
    I am having trouble getting the second server (with the direct connection to the internet) to send out alert emails (ie - as configured through Server Admin/settings/Alerts). I receive emails from the first server just fine.
    Am assuming it is a firewall configuration issue - but I have tried turning off the firewall briefly and testing it - but it still doesn't work. The same applies to emails sent from within packages such as Joomla and Drupal (ie - new account emails)
    Any ideas anyone?
    Many thanks,
    Andrew

    My settings are fine.  I believe the issue is because there is a typo in the email address to the person I am trying to send the email to.  I am trying to open the email to correct typo but every time I try to open the email I get a message saying, "Cannot open email, email is being sent."  I also cannot delete this email either.

  • I know this is the wrong forum but there isn't one for Apple Mail!

    Hello all,
    Forgive the slight mis-placement but.. I'm looking to move my Mail from my desktop Mac Pro to my Macbook Pro! Can anybody advise the best method that will maintain the current email archive and listings, thus being no change whatsoever once moved to the Macbook?

    Not sure what you are talking about? If the post, which I did not see, was posted in this forum (Mail and Address Book) then it was the correct forum. Your saying there was no forum for Apple Mail would probably have not helped get a reply.
    The correct and simplest method to move is to transplant both the com.apple.mail.plist file from Home/Library/Preferences and the Mail folder from Home/Library from the one Mac to the other.

  • May be wrong forum but how do I portforward?

    Okay so I have netgear and my laptop is getting NAT:Moderate and I would like to switch it to open. Now I drop sometimes that is why I want to open my port. I put the netgear router on dmz on the fios but it's still not getting opened. I even portforwarded on both the routers and its not open. The actiontec can open itself but you see I have netgear+actiontec so how do I get my ports open?

    Can't advise you on how to port forward the Netgear.  Check the manufacturer's documention.
    Actiontec port forward instructions can be found here:
    http://www.dslreports.com/faq/16968
    Some questions:
    Which router is primary?
    If Netgear is primary, why are you even trying to port forward the Actiontec?
    How are the routers connected?  LAN-to-WAN or LAN-to-LAN?
    "The actiontec can open itself"  What does that mean?
    How are you determining the ports are not open?  The game must be running and accepting connections for the ports to be considered open. See my response here: http://forums.verizon.com/t5/FiOS-Internet/Port-forwarding-woes/td-p/589945

  • May be wrong forum, but I am desperate for help

    I recently purchased 4 Mac Pro's for our graphics department. Our network infrastructure in all Windows Server 2003 with Active Directory.
    When setting up the mac pro's I did NOT use the directory utility. What are the benefits of using the directory utility and connecting to my active directory domain? The users that have the mac pro's do not have any group policies, so other then that, is there any reason why i should set them up in directory utility?
    Now for the thing that I need help with ASAP. Connecting to our file servers. Currently I have the users using the side bad in Leopard to connect to our file server, and they are 'connecting as' there username in which they are set up with in active directory (old windows login), and everything connects fine, though does cause some frustration at times where we will be connected yet none of the folders are there. We have to disconnect, and reconnect. I want the users to be able to access the file server without having to log in. I know I can save the login info to the keychain, but for secure reasons, I prefer not to do that. If I use directory utility, and set there user up and have them login using there active directory credentials, will that allow them to connect to the file server without using the connect as option? And apart of this, how can have the file server connect at login?
    Thanks for any help.
    Computers:
    Mac Pro with 10.5
    Windows 2003 Server environment

    The problem that you are having with the file servers access is the very reason you would want to setup active directory integration. The users will use Single-sign-on to access the servers and will login to the Mac Pro's using their AD credentials this will prevent you from storing the credentials in a keychain as well as provided transparent access to resources.
    As for your auto-connect at login, since these are Mac Pro's you should not need any i then statements because they are not laptops. Hope this helps some.

    Max,
    Just to clarify....do you want it to record movement? If not paprazzi is great for stills and getting a website (since the pages can be long).
    The movie types I think cost but someone else may know. I recently used such an app called ishowu for a pretty reasonable cost of 20 dollars. I can say it is very good. Don't know the quality of the following:
    Here are some for about 25 range of dollars:
