TimeSheets with iWork 09 possible?

Hi fellow Mac users.
I'm thinking of upgrading to iWork 09 but have quick question before ordering.
Is iWork 09 capable of calculating time in a way that allows for the easy creation of TimeSheets looking like this:
http://badtastic.com/misc/basictime_sheetsample.jpg
I basically want to create a TimeSheet where I can enter when work shifts starts and end, allowing iWork09 to do its number-crunching magic in the background, displaying weekly totals etc.
Is this possible to achieve with iWork 09?
Input and tips highly appreciated.
Cheers / Badtastic

Thanks for your help guys!
Ok, I've downloaded the trial and am studying the Employee Schedule template that comes with it. However, if you take a look at cel C9, it references the time input in cels C7 & C8. The funny thing is that there isn't a single function in C9 that relates or can be found among the "Date & Time" functions in the "Function Browser"
I used the DATEDIF function to successfully determine the amount of days between two dates which I'm sure is useful in some cases but it doesn't really help me here because to determine the amount of time between the beginning of a work-shift (morning) to the end (sometine in the evening), one needs higher time resolution i.e. hours & minutes and not a large unit or method (d) as days.
Excuse my current lack of knowledge (I'm still learning this and admit to being a compltete noob at this stuff) but if I enter:
The Setup:
08:30 (for work start) in cell C2 and..
16:00 (for work end) in cell C4...
with one hour lunch break in C3...
How should the formula be entered in C6 to get the correct / desired result of 6.5 hrs?
Are there any of the new time funtions that come in handy here?
Sorry to bug..
Input appreciated..
Cheers / Badtastic

Can I set up a bracket form with iWorks?

I need to be able to set up pedigree forms for my horse business. Can I do this with iWorks and if so, do I need the whole program or just a part of it?
If it has the capability to draw line of whatever length I choose and space the lines as I wish, I could set up a pedigree in that way.
I can set up a pedigree type form on Text Edit, but it is so plain looking and I would like to be able to put a picture on the document if possible.
If iWorks won't do this, can you recommend a program with a reasonable price that I could use for this?

Yes. Apple now provides an iOS version of the AirPort Utility.

Draw Braces "}" with iWork

HELP!
I tried to draw a big "}" with iWork. Like the qubes and circles... But I could'nt!!! It's so easy on Microsoft Office, why not in iWork? Am I to stupid or isn't it possible to do this with iWork?

If you want to make the curly brace a "Shape" you have to do it outside of Pages in a drawing program and bring it back in.
I presume you want to do this because you want to put an image inside of it or use a blend, there would be no other reason why you need this.
1. Open a Drawing program, see the list here:
http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/viewtopic.php?t=71&mforum=iworktipsn trick
2. Type the } character and outline it (turn it into a drawing)
3. Save it as a .svg file
4. Open it with svg2key and convert it to a Keynote file
http://mcb.berkeley.edu/labs/zusman/dave/svg2key/
5. Open it in Keynote and copy it from there into Pages
If you just want it as a graphic, type it in a textbox as previously described and copy the box by command clicking on it, into the Preview application which turns it into a pdf. Save that and bring it back into Pages as a .pdf graphic.

Apple MacBook Pro 13" 2012 with OS Mountain Lion ships standard with iWorks?

We recently purchased an Apple MacBook Pro 13" new, but from a recommended third party seller because we needed the 2012 version with OS Mountain Lion on it due to Pro Tools incapatability with Maverick. Our Apple consultant told us that all Laptops ship standard with iWorks, but our college student who we purchased it for, says it is not on the laptop & that no software was included except what was already installed on the laptop. Is this typical now with Apple, that you have to go & download your own software from the ITunes App store? And is there a purchaser's code or something showing that there is no additional charge for the software? Please help! These laptops are expensive & should come with the typical Apple tools & software! Also missing iPhoto, is this the same condition or did the seller rip us off?

Just a caution when reading this forum for ML information ...
Over 3 million have downloaded ML. Count the number of "complaints and b*tching" like some in this thread, and you will find the number in the thousands. Simple math will tell you how many users have enough of an issue, real or imagined, to actually say so. Most users who are happy are too busy just using it to say anything.
Now, as a reminder, you can download ML and load it on an external drive. That way you can play with it to see what issues *you* may have based on your specific uses. Of course external drives will respond more slowly than internal drives, but you should know if certain applications do not open.
Also, check this site for applications that simply do not work under ML as "research": http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

Hard disk in mums macbook failed, bought a new one, formatted it first. Have tried starting it with every possible key and I either get flashing question mark folder or a cursor.

Hard disk in mums macbook failed, bought a new one, used sata adapter cable to format it for mac first. Connected it and have tried starting it with every possible key combination and I either get flashing question mark folder or a cursor. A disk is stuck in it so I can't boot from OSX, and yes I have tried every option of starting to try and eject disk but none work. HELP ME!

Five ways to eject a stuck CD or DVD from the optical drive
Ejecting the stuck disc can usually be done in one of the following ways:
1. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
      left mouse button until the disc ejects.
2. Press the Eject button on your keyboard.
3. Click on the Eject button in the menubar.
4. Press COMMAND-E.
5. If none of the above work try this: Open the Terminal application in
      your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter or paste the following:
        /usr/bin/drutil eject
If this fails then try this:
Boot the computer into Single-user Mode. At the prompt enter the same command as used above. To restart the computer enter "reboot" at the prompt without quotes.
If you have a 2010 MBP or later, then you can use Internet Recovery. Start by rebooting the computer. At the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION-R keys until a Globe appears in the upper part of the screen. This process can take upwards of 15 minutes to get connected to the Apple network servers. You should eventually see the utility screen of the Recovery HD. You may now go about the process to install Mountain Lion:
Install Lion/Mountain Lion on a New HDD/SDD
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your external hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

HT204394 how to rename a document created with iwork pages

how do one rename a document created with iwork pages?

So the "Rename" command is not supposed to work? It is a dead link and crashes Pages.
Where did Pages save the file that I wanted to put into the folder of related documents. Please bring back "save as" or ask where we want the file saved. How else can I find it later?

Cannot get an invoice created with IWork Numbers to open correctly in Excel

I used the Template in Numbers to create an invoice,and it's great.
However, I cannot seem to open this file in Excel no matter how I send it, no matter how I save it.
Have saved as windows friendly, have saved as Excel file.
I have to be able to have these opened by others with Excel and/or OpenOffice and, Office staff must be able to work with the file to update/modify invoices.
I even tried Pdf and Adobe Acrobat Pro thinking they would be able to do data entry that way-No luck.
Desperately need a solution or a year of working with IWork is going to be lost.
We have now added staff, and in other locations, and have to be able to work across platforms.
No problems importing Office files of any type, but have to be able to export as well and have cells and formatting remain workable.
I can open the files in Excel but they are unusable, in several pages, basically no invoice template left.
Thanks for any help.

If you are getting three Excel worksheets, the export is working as designed. You have to remember that the heart of an Excel worksheet is a monolithic table. Everything is aligned in a tabular grid. Numbers, on the other hand, allows you to have multiple tables on the same sheet that have different column and row widths and the tables can be placed wherever you like, offset from the other tables by whatever amount you desire in any direction you desire. The invoice template is a good example; the two tables are very dissimilar in format and in column widths. If Numbers was to export the two tables from the invoice template into a single sheet of an Excel workbook, which column widths would it use? The ones from the first table or the ones from the second? No matter which it chose, the result would be quite different from what is in Numbers. Now include some text boxes, graphics or charts. With the tables moved around and resized to align to the Excel grid, these other items would also have to be moved around. But to where. It would be impossible to make an exported file look anything like it did in Numbers except in specific instances. This is why Numbers creates separate Excel sheets when it converts to Excel.
I know that diatribe did not help you solve your problem. To solve your problem, everything must be designed as one table in Numbers. Here is how you can do it. It is a bunch of steps but is really simple to do.
1) Select all the rows from the first table.
2) Drag them sideways out of the table and drag them to the second table, inserting them just below the first row. I think this is explained in the Numbers User's Guide.
3) Add a new row below the rows you just inserted (this will become your new row 8)
4) Select the cells in row 1. Copy. Paste to your new row 8.
5) Delete row 1
6) Go to the Table Inspector and turn on Name (check the checkbox). Name it Invoice.
7) Back at the table, deselect the table if it is still showing the column letters and row numbers in order to see the table name
8) Click twice on the table name above the table to select it. It will box it in, it does not select the text.
9) On the toolbar, change the font size and color and set it to left justification.
10) Delete the textbox with the word "Invoice" in it.
11) Delete the textbox with "sincerely yours ... Your name". Or, if you want to keep it, add another footer to the table, increase the height of that new footer and type "Sincerely yours," and your name in there. Note that you use option-return to create the linefeeds in the cell.
12) Select the table and slide it up toward the top of the sheet.
13) Adjust the column widths as best you can. I increased the column width of column B and right justified the text in cells A1-A6 and C1-C6 to get it looking okay. You might, instead, choose to insert a column or two and merge some cells together to align everything like you want it. And you might choose to add a row or increase the gridline width between the top half and the bottom half. I did not do those last few things. You can play around to get the design you like best.
The export looked almost exactly like the Numbers document.

Fill Array with all possible combinations of 0/1

Hi,
i'm looking for a fast way to fill an array, respectively an int[8], with all possible combinations of 0 and 1 (or -1 and 1, shouldn't make a difference).
I kind of know how to do it using multiple loops but I assume there is a more elegant or at leaster "better" practice.
Thanks,
nikolaus

No I replied to message number 5. as the ' (In reply to #5 )' above my post indicates, which was in reply to (a reply) to Sabre150's post which wasn't using enhanced loops, nor has any obvious place where you could use that approach to fill the array.
Though you could pass in an array of the values to fill the array with, and loop over those, instead of using 0 or 1, at which point Sabre's approach becomes the same as your OP, but without the manual unrolling:
import java.util.Arrays;
public class NaryCombinations {
public interface CombinationHandler {
void apply (int[] combination) ;
public static void main(String[] args) {
calculateCombinations(new int[]{-1, 0, 1}, 4, new CombinationHandler () {
public void apply (int[] combination) {
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(combination));
public static void calculateCombinations (int[] values, int depth, CombinationHandler handler) {
recursivelyCalculateCombinations(values, 0, depth, handler, new int[depth]);
private static void recursivelyCalculateCombinations (int[] values, int index, int depth,
CombinationHandler handler, int[] combination) {
if (index == depth) {
handler.apply(combination);
} else {
for (int value : values) {
combination[index] = value;
recursivelyCalculateCombinations(values, index + 1, depth, handler, combination);
Which looks to use the same basic approach to the generalization I created shortly after posting the original.

Are there any chinese fonts with iWork?

A friend in Beijing is keen to convert to Mac, but wants to know if there any Chinese fonts available with iWork? If anyone knows, I'd be grateful for some feedback.
She's not keen on buying Microsoft Office for Mac.
Linden

Unlike on Windows the language support is not at the application level, but the system level.
Get your friend to try out a Mac in an AppleStore because the real concern will be whether OSX meets her needs for efficient input methods. The various methods Apple employs are relatively simple but not as efficent or helpful as you will find on Windows.
Don't expect the same of language support in the Mac version of Word as you do in the Windows version.
Have a look at free applications like Text Express and its related word processors which are well designed for the Japanese market but will do equally as well for Chinese. In particular these are easier for changing the direction of the text. Pages has no provision for vertical text.
One thing your friend will find fascinating is the OSX Service that lets you switch text between Traditional and Simplified text, at one click.

HT5663 why I can not open an icloud email attachment with iworks application in icloud directly?

Hi,
I like this iwork solution in icloud, but the integrity might be developed more. If I got an email to my icloud inbox, I can not open it with iworks application but it will be downloaded instead. It would be very useful to be able to open an attachment onsite, using one of the iworks app.

Can't share Aperture photos with iWork and iLife

I can't see my Aperture photos in any iWork '08 or iLife '08 application. I am running 1.5.4; sharing previews is enabled in Aperture Prefs; previews for my entire Library set to 1280px (and there are definitely previews for every master image). However, I see nothing in any iWork '08 or iLife '08 app – no Aperture 'disclosure triangle' in the Media pane. Nothing. Zip.
I have rebuilt the Aperture database (Command + Option on start-up) for all 242 projects, but still no go.
The only thing I think it could be is that my 'Aperture Library.aplibrary' (all 95GB of it) is stored in its entirety on a different hard drive, with an alias pointing to it from my '~/user/Pictures' folder on my boot drive (which it shares with iPhoto Library). I thought alias' were supposed to be transparent to the OS and the other apps would be able to see my 'Aperture Library.aplibrary' as if it were on my primary drive (i.e., the same drive). Is there a permissions thing happening here?
This one has got me stumped. Any thoughts on why I can't share my Aperture photos with iWork '08 or iLife '08 would be gratefully received.

Solved it!!!
I just went a little berserk with the plist files in ~/user/Library/Preferences (sorry, not very scientific....).
Interestingly, in addition to iWorks and iLife apps having their own preference files, there is also a file called 'com.apple.iApps.plist'. This was locked for some reason. Anyway, it and all the other pref files got trashed and then the trash emptied. Then I restarted my Mac and opened up iPhoto.
Bingo!
Same for Pages, etc.
Thanks to all who took time out of their day to help me -- much appreciated.
