Why do Track Changes no longer show up when document is saved as .doc?

I've used iWork for many years to collaborate with people in numerous other organizations who almost all use MS Office and are mostly on Windows. This year, the documents I send them, supposedly saved in Office formats, cause freezes, don't open, and even when they do, don't show Track Changes any more. That makes collaboration on document creation almost impossible. Workarounds? Solutions?
Does anyone know if Apple is going to do a real update to iWork to bring it in line with current MS Office versions? If not, I'm going to have to give up on it and that will take endless work since I'm going to have to create new templates and sample docs from scratch. Anything I convert and import from iWork causes problems and the Open Office/ Libre Office suites don't even accept iWork docs at all. I hate to go back to using Microsoft products.

I was still on Leopard when it started this spring (I suspect it started with updates others did for MS Office). I never used Snow Leopard or Lion on my desktop. Documents sent to collaborators or cllients started not opening or freezing or being Read Only through I had not sent Read Only docs. I hoped the upgrade to iWork that was available once I bought Mountain Lion would help and it did in terms of documents opening but not for editing.
This happens with Pages and Numbers and I'm hearing it from others, and hearing they are also having this problem with Keynote. I'm about to collaborate on a presentation for a third party webinar and suspect it won't be worth developing it in Keynote from what I'm hearing. The problems have by now happened with dozens of collaborators in different organizations, countries, etc., including people with high level tech skills, so it's definitely at my end.
I have tried on another computer (my laptop, which had the problem during Snow Leopard and still does under Mountain Lion). as well as other accounts; that doesn't make a difference.
Throughout I've run whatever the latest iWork version was, but the upgrades have been minimal. It appears Apple plans to let iWork die.

HT3209 where are my TV series which I purchase on Apple TV stored? Why do they take so long to open when we want to watch them?

That would be due to your network.
Some common things to check
Current connection, use speedtest.net
Go to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC) to get a report of your network, it will help see if there's interference.
On Apple TV go to settings - general - network. Make sure DNS is set to automatic.

Have no clue what is happening to make the font change style. Are you hitting any keyboard shortcuts or is a syle applied to those cells?
There is no automatic Calendar generator, but Pages will generate sequences in tables and:

Why does my front camera flip my picture when it is saved?

Why does my front camera flip my picture when it is saved? I need a solution to this problem asap.

What is your current iOS version. I believe iOS 5.1.1, released just a few days ago, addresses a camera issue. Even if it doesn't directly mention it in the update description, it may solve the problem. Go to Settings > General > Software Update.

Why do music videos no longer show up properly?

After updating to OS5 I notice that music videos no longer show up properly.
I have most of mine in playlists, and it show the songs, but only plays the music, not the video?
When I view them in 'Videos' I have no option to sort or show them in a different way!
Considering the iPad is probably more slanted toward movie content, the lack of features for music videos is very disapointing

I think this has always been a lacking feature in the iPad videos app but now it is even worse as you can't go into the music app, context navigate to the video you want and play the music video. It was irritating in the past as it took you back to the lack luster videos app with no sorting or context other than the video tile navigation, now it is TOTALLY un functional.
APPLE DEVOLPMENT please use the video app with 200+ music videos and see how you like it! Or does anyone know of a replacement or more advanced app that will allow a better browse and play interface. Apple's is so basic that it is 'still' just painful!
Music video playlist and shuffle on the iPad would also be nice but sort would be awesome!
Thanks for any info from anyone on this topic that I have long hopped to be resolved but it is going backward and we are loosing features.
The new music interface isn't any better in my opinion either, play buttons at the top so your hand has to be over the top of the screen, store button at the bottom left vs top right as it would be more intuitive like other app purchase button positioning.
Anyone know how to make music videos sort better on the iPad (by artist would be awesome)

Folders created in bookmarks no longer show up when I right a webpage to save.

folders that where made with right click crate new folder no longer show in that particular menu. they appear under book marks at the top of the page but no longer appear when I right click a web page and wish to save to a folder specifically created for this type of subject, they are no appearing there anymore. I havent added and toolbars or extensions the folders are just not there. I am using win7 home premium and ff 3.6.17

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Hi,
I paid to have my cell phone number show up when I call a landline. This worked great for a good while (maybe 2 years). It is no longer working.
Do I need to renew this feature ? If so, how do I do this.
TIA

PS hope this is the correct forum

What's the format of your video? That will give you a hint as to what plugin is failing (or missing).
If you don't know, what's the URL of your site - it shouldn't take long for someone to work out the specifics.

Change name that shows up when submitting app store reviews

How do I change the name that displays when submitting app store reviews (e.g. reviews for apps)? I can't find anywhere to do it!

iTunes>Store>View My Account>4th box down>Edit Nickname...what do you show there, if anything? Also, are you postive the name being shown is not associated with your account or used with the account to obtain that app?

The icon for Airplay no longer shows up when I hit the button at the bottom of the homepage. It previously did. Same thing for my iPad.

Make sure your phone is running the same iOS or higher as the one you backed up. If not, first update the phone. Then try restoring the backup again by going to Settings>General>Reset and tapping Erase All Content and Settings. This will bring you back to the setup screens where you will be given the option to Restore from iCloud Backup again.

How to change what Facetime shows callers when I'm Facetiming with somebody else?

How to: all the cell content to show up when printing (or saving to PDF)

Hello, everyone!
On my website, I export data to a "CSV" file, but all it does is come up with all the data like this:
"AAAAA" , "BBBBB" , "CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC" , " "2010-02-01 07:39:13" , "DDDDDDD"
What I do is select all, and save it into a .csv file, which is fine.
However, how do I get Numbers to open this .csv file and ORGANIZE it so that when I go to print it and open in Preview, all of the info actually shows up??
For example, the field "CCCCCCCCC" is for comments, thus can be long. When I open the file on Preview, not all of it shows up. It shows maybe a first line, and the rest is 'hidden'. So, I need numbers to automatically adjust the size of the cells according to the size of the content, so that all the info shows for when I go print it (or even save it as PDF).
I need this file in print.
How do I organize/fix this??
(I'm obviously not very versed in Numbers or Excel)
Thanks so much for your help!

Two ways I can think of:
Select the column (click on the column letter). Up on the toolbar click the "wrap" checkbox. After doing that and while the column is still selected, increase the width of the column to your liking.
Or select the column then go to the Table Inspector and where it says "column width", click on "fit". This probably is not what you want because it will expand the column so all text fits on one line.
One other thing you may also want to do is go to Print View and reduce the size of the contents (i.e., your table) so it fits on one page or at least to the width of a page.

My CD track titles no longer show up on Windows Media Player; just Track 1, Track 2, etc. Is there a setting to correct this?

No matter which CD I play on my computer (using Windows Media Player), the title shows "Unknown Album", and each track is listed a s Track 1, 2, etc. instead of showing the song title. When I click on "Find album info", a message pops up saying "You must change your privacy settings in Tools, Options, to update information about the audio media you have selected". I don't see anything in the Privacy tab that has to do with audio media. All of this began when I changed to Firefox. I'm using Version 3.6.12

The Tools|Options it is talking about are those listed in WMP not FF.

Why do app updates no longer show up for me in iTunes?

Please don't stop reading, because I think my issue is different from similar ones I've found posts about.
For the past week or so, I've been unable to update apps through iTunes. When I click "Check for Updates," it shows "Accessing iTunes Store" at the top of the screen, but after it finishes I never get a dialog box -- neither the dialog box saying there are new updates nor the one saying there are not. Also, I don't get the notification in the left hand column next to "Applications" that normally shows how many app updates are available. The latter point is what seems to distinguish my problem from the other posts I've seen, in which push notification seems to work but updating fails. I can't even see any updates in the first place -- and this occurs even when I can see from using the App Store on my iPhone that I have multiple updates available. And I have a lot of apps.
I should add that this is especially mysterious because it is the only problem I am having with iTunes. I can still download NEW apps from the iTunes App Store, sync my iPhone, download podcasts, etc. I can also update Apps on my iPhone itself. My internet service is working fine. This problem began with the previous version of iTunes and has continued in iTunes 8.1.
One final confession. A few weeks ago, I went through my Apps folder and deleted the non-current versions of all of my apps, hoping to save space on my old computer's hard drive. I don't think this is the cause of the problem, because app updating continued to work for a few weeks after that. But I mention it in the interest of full disclosure. But in addition to my main question, I'd be interested in knowing if this is a bad idea for future reference.
I am running iTunes 8.1.0.51 on Windows XP Home edition (SP 3), and I have a first-generation 4GB iPhone.
Can anyone help?
Thanks very much!
Matthew
NYC area

ell, exactly same problem here: could not have been described better. It all started when I noticed that I could no longer update iPhone apps. "Applications" folder under Library showed such updates awaiting downloading: I could not get any further.
AND SUDDENLY, for no reason, the "Application" in iTunes "Library" disappears! No folder visible, no apps listing, no updates mentioned. Wow!
i had contacted Apple's iTunesStoreSupport in regard to the initial incident, and was kindly informed that:
+"Dear Roger,+
+Thank you for contacting iTunes Store Customer Support for assistance. I understand that you are receiving intermittent connection errors using iTunes 8.1.+
+Apple is currently working toward a resolution for the issue you have reported. You will receive an email after the matter has been investigated and further information is available.+
+Thank you very much for your patience, and I am sorry for any delay in enjoyment of your iTunes experience. Finding a solution for you is important to me.+
+Remember, we wish your iTunes experience to be truly enjoyable. Take care, and thank you for being a valued iTunes Store customer. Your business is most appreciated.+
+Best regards"+
I thus figured that in some way "all was in control"... Until the Applications forum disappeared. Apps gone??? Are they stored somewhere on my Mac??
I have just emailed an update incident report to iTunesStoreSupport with screen prints to show abrupt, undesired change.

Nokia 6233 - Music track list no longer shows char...

My phone has stopped showing the track names in the track list. They names are only represented by small empty boxes. The track names appear to have downloaded OK as they are clearly visible if you browse the memory card. Can anyone help? I'm using Win XP SP2, PC Suite 6.82.22, Nokia 6233 connected by USB cable CA-53

No - it was even easier than that! Apparently it was to do with the format that the track was saved in. Somehow my settings had changed from m4a to aac - resetting theis to m4a cured the problem.

Changing song order in playlists - changes no longer show on ipod until sync

I organize my playlists according to how I rate songs; songs with higher ratings go at the top. When the last operating system came out there was a glitch where on the iPod (but not in iTunes) songs were ordered inversely, ie. songs with higher ratings were stuck at the bottom. This was annoying, but one bonus was that when rating songs on the iPod, the position of the song would change automatically. For example, if Song A had two stars but I changed the rating to 3 stars on my iPod, Song A would immediately move and join the other 3-star songs. The changes would then be tranferred to iTunes upon syncing my device.
Now, after having updated iTunes, the playlists are in the correct hierarchical order, but I can't seem to immediately change the order of songs in playlists according to their ratings. Instead, I have to rate the song and sync my device for it to change in iTunes, and then sync my iPod again to have the playlist updated on the iPod itself. This isn't a big deal, but I enjoyed the ability to instantaneously alter my playlists based on the song ratings. Am I missing something? Any advice?
