Why do I get an ampersand and a string of letters instead of punctuation?

Why do I get &rsquos instead of 's when an apostrophe appears in a sentence?
The possible collapse of Comcast Corp.&rsquos merger with Time Warner Cable Inc. wouldn&rsquot just be a setback for these two providers.

There would have to be a semicolon after the entity code: ’
<blockquote>The possible collapse of Comcast Corp.&amp;rsquo;s merger with Time Warner Cable Inc. wouldn&amp;rsquo;t just be a setback for these two providers.</blockquote>

  • Why do i get 2 curves and not just 1 when i create a diagram from a row of data in a table ?

    Why do I get 2 curves and not just i when I create a diagram from a row af data in a table ?

    Erik,
    Thank you for giving me the points.  Generally you wait to award points until your problem is solved.  It is totally your at your descretion.
    OK.
    This is still not clear.  To post a screenshot get the "stuff" you want to show in view on your screen, then type the key combination <Command>+<Shift>+3.  The cursor will change to a crosshair.  Click and hold on the top-left corner, then drag to enclose what you want to show (to the bottom-right corner), then release.  The screenshot will appear on your desktop and will be named something like "".
    Now click the camera icon in the tool bar for this forum:
    , click the text box to allow you to navigate to, and select your screenshot.
    Here is what you sent me:
    The graph does not seem to be associated with the table of data you are showing.  Generally when you highlight a graph the corresponding table will highlight and show the source of each of the series in the graph (dark and light blue).
    This is what I would expect to see when highlighting a graph:
    Right now I think there is ANOTHER table arround that is the source for the graph and the table you show is "just another table".  You can move your data into the table the graph refers to by copy and paste, or simply typing the values.  You can change how many series there are by grabbing the little circle at the bottom right of the highlighted cells (when you have the graph highlighted) and dragging as shown:
    The Numbers Users' Guide is a great resource you should utilize and can be found here:

    The chapter on graphing (or charting) is 7 and starts on page 134.

    Then I'd check the system drive, if it has problems.
    To check your System drive boot into the Recovery Partition, see: OS X Lion: About Lion Recovery
    Restart your Mac and hold down the Command key and the R key (Command-R), and keep holding them until the Apple icon appears, indicating that your Mac is starting up.
    You will see a panel, where you can use Disk Utility to check your System Drive.

  • Why am I getting a red and blue haze over my oil paint filter effect in photoshop cs6?

    Why am I getting a red and blue haze over my oil paint filter effect in photoshop cs6? I am currently using a trial version.

    The last time someone reported this problem with Oil paint, the fix was to go Preferences (Ctrl k) > Performance and set the cache levels to something other than '1'.  If you cache levels were not previously set to 1 then we'll need to think again.

  • Why am I getting black boxes and lines in Facebook chat area?

    I just installed the latest version of Firefox as well as the latest version of my graphics card drivers, and Adobe Flash Player. When I open Facebook, I get black boxes and lines all over the left side of the screen where my chat contacts are. I am wondering why this is happening and if there is a current fix to it, as it is rather annoying. When I hover my mouse next to or over the black boxes and lines, they move and continue to pop up elsewhere but only on the friends/chat area.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • Why am I getting an IncompatibleClassChangeError, and how do I slove it

    I have a class that holds data: Book.
    I needed to swap it to being an interface.
    Easy enough - and now I have a SimpleBook class which implements Book.
    I have a Jar that refers to Book Objects.
    The jar was compiled when Book was not an interface.
    even though Book has the same methods - I get an IncompatibleClassChangeError when Book is used in the precompiled Jar
    Why is this?
    and is there a way I can fix the problem?

    the precompiled code only references Books and need
    not know how to make them or that it is now actually
    a SimpleBook.You have to recompile everything that uses Book.
    I think calling a method on a interface uses a different bytecode to calling a method on a class, but I can not find it in the VM specs.
    Edit: invokeinterface & invokespecial.

  • I've lost 3/4 of my music on my iphone 4s during synchning with itunes and why can i get my itunes' library downloaded on my iphone instead of having to synch with itunes .

    help me i've lost 3/4's of my music on my iphone4s while synching and why can't i download my itunes library onto my iphone? i've tried and can't find a way. i've gone to itunes music section and checked off the artist, was that wrong? this working all so well before upgrading to ios6. what's going on?

    Incidentally, my first thought was to map a network share from the NAS to my computer, so that my music files appear on the Z: drive, say on my computer. I could then set up iTunes to store music etc in that folder, and to copy all new items to that folder. However, if I do that, all that'll happen is that on my NAS, the library file will become out of date as I add music to the collection but not to the index.

  • Why am I getting error messages and sometimes no Bookmarks when I convert some MS-Word files to PDF

    Our company produces educational products for business. Essentially they are e-books in PDF format with Bookmarks allowing for ease movement to various areas of the book. The original product is generated in MS-Word and then converted to PDF. These e-books vary from 40pages to 300 pages in length. Businesses use them as reference and problem solving tools. We are using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 and for what we do it serves our purposes very well.
    Recently, with some MS-Word files only, I have gotten error messages while converting the file to PDF. Sometimes, it will not complete the conversion. Sometimes, it will complete the conversion BUT-there are no Bookmarks in the PDF file.
    The main error message I get is:
    "Acrobat PDF maker has detected 'Highlight Changes in Printed Document' has been selected. To create a PDF file with tags, unselect this option from VIEW>MARKUP. Do you wish to continue and create PDF without tags."
    If I don't unselect VIEW>MARKUP  in the MS-Word file I can't complete the conversion to PDF. If I do unselect VIEW>MARKUP I can complete the conversion to PDF but the PDF file has no Bookmarks. Bookmarks are absolutely essential to the user facility with our products.
    Does anyone know my problem is and can offer a solution.
    Thanks in advance

    BizGuru,
    Somethings to consider.
    --| In Windows - the OS needs a goodly space for 'elbow room' - you don't want to have HDD free space drop below something like 15%.
       Say your HDD is 600GB, 60GB free space is leaving you 10%...
    -| RAM - May not be enough; more is better <g>.
    --| Virtual Memory - if in Windows, open up Task Manager. Look at all the "stuff" there. Most is not required by the OS.
        Most of the listing is "stuff" associated with a full cart of processes associated with things you may not need or use but they suck up resources.
    --| Graphics - Processing images into PDF can be resource intensive. Having a dedicated graphics card with enough ram makes a difference.
    Be well...

  • Why do people get a .dat and an image file when I e-mail an attachment?

    I don't know where to post this question.

    I have the opposite problem. Some people who send me attachments, and all I get is some .dat file.
    I have found it to only happen when the sender is using Microsoft Outlook, which IMO is a garbage program. And this ranks as reason number 5, on my list.
    The problem is usulaly solved when I ask the user, please do not send me attachments if you are going to use Outlook. I know it has to be due to some unfamiliarity with the User on how to use Outlook.
    I understand that recipients can install a DAT decoder, but it would be a lot simpler if Outlook users simply get along with others  set their own program to not use DAT encoding for their RTF emails, and attachments.

  • Why am I getting this error and how do I fix it?

    I am new to actionscript. I am following a tutorial on lynda. I am trying to learn how to create flash games. I am using flash cs4. The tutorial uses flash cs3 and and actionscript 3.0. I added a movie clip to my library and enabled export for actionscript. I got a dialog box that says "a definition for this class could not be found in the classpath, so one will automatically be generated in the swf file upon export." I click ok. Then when I try to test it, I get an error that says "call to possibly undefined method". What exactly am I doing wrong?

    Try modifying your class and your code as follows...
    change the class linkage to be Cursor.  Not that it is wrong, but classes typically have upper case letters to make them easier to identify in code.
    then, do not use the name of the class as the instance name....
    var cursor:Cursor;
    function initializeGame():void
    cursor = new Cursor();
    etc...

  • Why do I get error messages and failed sync's of wma songs?

    I'm pulling my freakin hair out.
    I have been able to transfer songs burned from cd's to my crackberry (converted in wma format) but have not been able to sync songs purchased from walmart in wma format (windows media player) or songs purchased from I-tunes in their format.  I've got a 8330 curve, the 4.2.1.5. (whatever) latest update with Roxio, a Sandisk 1 gb micro sd card.  The songs have unlimited sync rights and everything from hardware to software seems to be in order. Mass storage device is on and all the card properties are just as the instructions suggest (are they right?)
    I've tried copying and pasting from desktop and sending to the usb port and it will copy over but you get about 1.2 seconds of song and it pukes out.
     Either I'm an **bleep** or the phone and the formats are too smart for each other or are in divorce court. This really shouldn't be hard.  WTF?  Do we really have to be .edu guy to figure this crap out?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Why am I getting strange calls AND voicemails..

    I just paid $200 for a replacement iPhone and I've been getting calls from some kind of colledge, and somebody that has to do with law...
    My number is garanteed to be different than whatever it used to be, but it seems like the iPhone it'self is still listening for the old number.
      It would make sense for someone to have forgotten to delete every single thing by holding the power button down for a full minute, or to go without plugging it into iTunes, but to be getting calls on the new number from people who are definitly dialing the old number is not only unusual and awkward, but seems like an opening for a potentially monumental identity theft.

    using logic 9, my computer glitched a bit (i have a pretty full session running) and then some of my plugins and instruments had a slash through them and they wont play back now. how do i "un-slash" them if possible?

    Restarting Logic and reloading the project should get them back - it sounds like you ran out of memory. Are you running in 64-bit?
