The file "x.numbers" couldn't be opened.
I don't use numbers on the Mac often, so don't know how long this problem has been there for (I generally use the iPad version). When I try and open any of my iCloud saved versions it comes up with an error: The file "x.numbers" couldn't be opened. This happens with all of my documents, all of which open fine on the iPad or iCloud.com. If I download the document from iCloud it will open from my computer. If I then save it back to the cloud I can no longer open it. Everything is up to date, with the latest version (OS 10.9.4, Numbers 3.2). Any advice?
Hi Stephen,
Apple Menu > System Preferences > iCloud
Have you ticked Documents & Data?

Please can someone tell me what is going on when I get this message for the Time Capsule?
Yes, this is because Lion or ML which you are using have lousy networking.
The trick is simply reboot the TC..
Or on Lion use the 5.6 utility and disconnect all users.
For ML sorry.. Apple decided you don't need that function any more!!.

Read C12.. I think C17 is also related. -

What can I do when I get this message?
I can no longer import pictures in any of my Aperture libraries even though I have deleted a lot of raw and jpeg files. I get this message, "Insufficient Disk Space - There is not enough free space on your Aperture library volume to import the selected items. It is estimated that you need 328MB of additional free space." What can I do?
Jenny,
How should I be deleting the pictures?
if your Library is a managed one, then your delete-workflow is perfect. If it is not managed, then the procedure is a little more complicated.
Managed means, all master files of your images are stored inside your Aperture Library, referenced means they are stored somewhere outside the library. To create a referenced library you either decide at the time of the import to keep your master image files in their current location or to copy/move them into to library. Or you relocate managed master files to a new place outside Aperture.
Since do not know if your masters are referenced or managed, they are probably managed, but you can check that with the badge-overlay:
Referenced images should be displayed in the Browser with a curved arrow in the lower right corner, as described in this article: Understanding Badge Overlays:
We need to know if there are referenced images, because when you delete the images it could be done in a way that the masters will not be deleted along with your version, also you will need storage outside your library.

Why can I not save my changes to an Excel file in Numbers?
I opened an Excel file in Numbers and made some modifications. Now, trying to save it to a numbers file, I get the message, "The file 'filename.numbers' couldn't be opened. How can I save this file?
oddly, i needed to restart my computer for another issue (i could not hear any sound no matter what i did). luckily, apple has had the insight to include automatic recovery of files and i was able to re-open these applications and have my unsaved files intact. even more strangely, i was able to save my file with the original name.
as a pc & windows convert, this whole thing was a little disconcerting. perhaps i am just used to that environment, but i have never had something like this happen there. (though perhaps i have had other things... )
thanks for the attempts to help! -
I keep getting a message "The MobileMe IMAP server ... rejected the password for ...." I can use that password when I go to iCloud (and to this discussion), but my e-mails won't download to my computer. What's the mix-up?
If the setting is greyed out perhaps you have restrictions enabled that would prevent someone from changing accounts. Settings>General>Restrictions>Allow Changes>Accounts.

what can be done to avoid getting the following error when trying to delete unused clips in Imovie 09 "the operation could not be completed. *** -[__NSArrayM insertObject:atIndex:]: object cannot be nil" I use to get these type of error messages when trying to delete unsused clips from a large event 60 minutes or longer, but now I get this message when trying to reduce a 4 minute event.
Also, does anyone know if there is a limit to the total amount of space that can be taken up by Projects in Imovie 09
Thanks for any helpZachy,
It goes something like this...
Put your new drive in the enclosure. Use Disk Utility to format it, etc. I'd give it a slightly different name than the original. Let's say you have Old Disk and New Disk as your drive names. Use Carbon Copy Cloner to copy Old Disk to New Disk. Now you should have an exact copy, which you can test by rebooting and holding down the Option key. Choose New Disk from the list and let it boot, make sure all is well.
Shut down and physically swap the drives. Take Old Disk and put it in the enclosure. Now your system has a new disk with a lot more space and you can reformat your old disk and just use it for large files or whatever. -

I keep getting the message "The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed." Does anyone know what I can do to correct this so I can download OSX?
I have a MacBook Pro with all the necessary requirements.Here are a few things to try:
Restart your Modem and Router.
Reset iTunes Store Cache (iTunes Preferences, Advanced tabl)
Delete the App Store plists (close App Store first):
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.storeagent.plist
To get to these,iIf you still have your user Library hidden, hold down the Option key and select Library from the Go menu in Finder. Otherwise, just go into your home folder, then Library, and then Preferences. -
Set computer to lock with password in 5 seconds. now cannot open in time because of the 5 second shutdown. What can I do to now get into my computer??
I'm not sure which option you set. Requiring the password after 5 seconds in System Preferences > Security only kicks in after the sleep or screen saver. The smallest option for sleep or screen saver is 1 minute.
Which options did you set? -
Problem! I just copied my extern hdd to finder and tried to open my files when I get the message: "The Map ”Pictures” can not be opened since you don´t have authority to see it´s contents! What??? No one else has access to my computer....now I can´t open my 300 Gb on my hdd in my Macbook Pro. Help?
I've had this happen a few times before. What I found works is repairing the permissions. To do so click on go and then to utilities. click disk utilities. In disk utilities select the drive and click repair permissions. It may take a little time but try accessing after that.

I keep getting this message " the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPad " what does that mean and how can I fix it
It's a really bad idea to post your iPhone's serial number and I've asked the Hosts to remove it.
Any one device can create only three iCloud accounts. As you have apparently already created three accounts (or if it's a used phone the previous owner did) you cannot create any more one it. This is tied to the hardware, not the account, and there is no way round it.
You can create a new iCloud account on another iOS device or on a Mac, and then you will be able to sign into that on your iPhone. -
I cannot open itunes. Getting error message: "the file iTunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes"
What do I need to do so I dont lose all my loaded music, etc.?
ThanksIf you still have an issue you may have to see about using the iTunes version (application) included with Snow Leopard 10.6 from the installer or an another one if available online, and see if that will install.
Sometimes you may have uninstall the bits left in your system by the earlier (or later) iTunes installers; as they all leave a trace and these can stop a different version of iTunes from being installed.
Not sure if the following site/link will tell the method...
