Why does Number's include the date and cell title when creating a formula!!
When typing in a formula, if the 1st column has a date in it then, regardless of where on that row I begin the formula, the date and title of the column appears in the equation rather than the cell designations. What I get is this:
='# Shares Bought' 'Apr 4, 2009'*Share ∆ 'Apr 4, 2009'
All I wanted was =D2*H2, but instead I got all of that. If I manually erase everything and change it to =D2*H2 it reverts back as it was as shown above.
I tried the same thing without the date in the first column and this eliminated the problem. However, I need the date, so why does Number's insist on doing this?
Thanks.
And now, the envelope please. The winner is Jerry Green for his spot-on answer!
Hey, Jerry!
I really appreciate your response to this silly little problem. I've used a few spreads in my time, but I've never seen this before. Guess I should have checked the Prefs but didn't. Anyway, I'm good to go now.
This still, I don't think, explains why the row without the date configured correctly. Does it??
Again, thanks for your perfect answer.

In the attached VI why does one loop coerce the data type while the other doesn't?

AAA.vi 8 KBI'm guessing you created the Enum on the front panel. If you right-click it and create an indicator, it will match the type, and be an enum. LabVIEW represents enums as U16, but because the types aren't identical (for example, your enum has 3 values, but a U16 has 65,536 values), LabVIEW automatically coerces (or converts) the smaller (enum) representation into the larger (U16) value.

Why does iCal automatically change the date of the entry i am making to the day before??
why does iCal automatically change the date of the entry i am making to the day before??
for example, when i am attempting to make a 'all-day' appointment on october 2nd 2011, it automatically shifts it to october 1st.
but if i am doing a timed appointment for only a few hours, it will allow me to put it on that day.
i am trying to put in travel dates so any help on how to fix this, would be greatly appreciated.alsdman,
Quit iCal, and try removing the com.apple.iCal.plist file from your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. Since that Library is now hidden, you have to use the Finder>Go Menu>Depress the "Option" key>Library. Drag the .plist file to your desktop, and log out/in or restart and check iCal for functionality.
Also go to System Preferences...>Language & Text>Formats>Region: and set/re-set the appropriate "Region." -
Why does IBA not include the table of contents when exporting to PDF?
Why does IBA not include the table of contents when exporting in PDF? I can seee the TOC in iBooks Author but when I want to see what it looks like in a regular PDF, the TOC does not show up.
Strange question you ask here. Not sure why that is relevant to "why" IBA won't publish a table of contents in a PDF.
But since eyou asked, it's simple, I want to author some books in IBA and also see what they look like - completed - in PDF. Again, any suggestions as to a work around so I don't have to cut and paste back into Pages? -
When I send an email from Mac Mail, why does Mail go to the background and the Finder comes to the front? I want it to stay in Mail.
Did you check your user name and password in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap your email account, tap SMTP, then tap the primary server name. Make sure the settings there are correct.

Why does my photoshop keep giving black and white lines when I use my lasso tool?
why does my photoshop keep giving black and white lines when I use my lasso tool? It has never done this before last night. It filles the Whole lasso seleted box with (what it almost looks like) black and white caution lines. then when I go to zoom out, my zoom option starts to mess up where you cant click and move your mouse to zoom in/out with ease but where you have to click to zoom out (many times).
Can ANYONE help me?I am using CS5, WIndows 7, I am not sure how to tell if my drivers are up to, and I am more than happy to screen shot it.

To whom it may concern,
I have an issue regarding the e-mail system, and I wanted to know how I can add a default that the date and time is added automatically to the E-mail page everytime I draft a new e-mail.
Does anyone know how do create a "plug-in" to enable me to have the date and t ime posted on the e0-mail page every time i send a new e-mail ?
If there is a plug in which is compatible with Lion iMac computers thart insert the date and time into every E-mail I send ?
Kind regards
Christipoher H. Bull
E-mail: [email protected]This supports macros and variables, it doesn't specifically state date and time, but if it supports variables I'd be surprised if it didn't have variables for those:
http://email.about.com/cs/mailplugins/gr/mailtemplate.htm
This one also supports variables and may do what you want:

You may want to look for more, I found those by googling 'mac email templates variables'. -
The date and time of files created and saved are off
I notice that under the date modified column, files that I have saved or updated are usually a day off. I checked the date and time in the system preferences and it is correct. is something wrong with the battery?
Hi, paulmont -
Be sure the Time Zone setting is correct.
If you have time displayed as 12-hour (rather than 24-hour), be sure the AM/PM setting is correct. Having that wrong will displace the mod/create date/time recorded for a file by 12 hours, which will (at times) shift it to another day.
If you use Classic, make sure the same settings are in Classic as well as in OSX, particularly the Time Zone setting. This is especially true for machines which can be and are booted into OS 9. The typical symptom for this being the cause is an offset of one or a few hours. -
Why can't I skip the billing and payment form when registering
Thanks..
If you don't want to give credit card details on your account then you need to follow the instructions on this page when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534 - if you don't use those instructions then you will need to enter card details before the account can be used in the store.

Why can't I set the date and time insert to the format I want?
I would like the date to be formatted in the short form on my docs. However whenever I insert date and Time it always come out at the long form i.e.
Monday, 15 April 2013.
Right clicking allows me to edit it but the next time I inset it the long form re-appears.
I've tried to do it via the system preferences > language and text > region > customise route but the same thing thing happens. I choose the short form at the top of the choices but it still comes out in the long form on the docs.
Only a minor point but it is irritating 'cos it should be simple (probably is 'cept I'm a bit slow).
I'm running Mountain Lion 10.8.3
Thanks
W.Wilfred. I found this in one of the More like this posts >>>>> opposite your first post. It might apply if you are on Pages 08. Insert Date/Time: Apple Support Communities
I would never have thought of double or right clicking on the date itself. I haven't tested it to see what formats exist. One last suggestion, if we don't resolve it here, write a new post and put it in the iWork pages columns. There you may meet up with the gurus in that persuasion. -
When I shut down Firefox, it tries to start Either Adobe Reader, Quicktime, or both. It has done this ever since the first time I installed an used version 4. The applications do not actually launch, as in a window opening, but they are then present as a process in the system, and I have to close them from the Task Manager. It usually launches just one, but, if it's trying to launch one, and I use Task Manager to close it, it then launches the other. If I hurry and stop that one, Firefox reports that it messed up, and wants me to keep using the Internet for its own purposes that have nothing to do with what I was using the Internet for. This never happened under previous versions of Firefox. Do I need to revert to a previous version? I'm running Kaspersky Internet Security, and it shows I have no malware or the like on my computer, which could cause this. So, why is Firefox trying to do things I did not ask it to, and then expecting me to let it phone home to tell about it when I stop it. By the way, out of good practice, I often close down my Internet connection before closing Firefox, (in case I do get something like a Key Logger loaded, to prevent it from sending its final report before the cache is cleared), but this also happens when I have not yet closed my Internet connection before closing Firefox, so I do not think that is the issue, nor should it be. Your question below about when it happens does not provide for the answer "Every time Firefox Closes", so I picked the closest such answer.
This can be caused by clearing the cookies via [[Clear Recent History]].<br />
* Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history" > [X] Clear history when Firefox closes > Settings
You can try to exclude the cookies to test that.<br />
You can let all cookies expire when you close Firefox to remove unwanted cookies and keep the ones with an allow exception.
* Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Keep until": "I close Firefox"
If you use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the cookies when you close Firefox then Firefox also tries to clear the cookies from plugins like Flash and starts a plugin-container process for each plugin and possibly for each cookie (?) and that can add extra time if there are a lot of cookies to remove and also can cause an unresponsive script error to appear. -
Why does my iPad lose the network I'm on when it goes to sleep?
I Just moved in with someone and I have to manually join the network every time I turn my iPad on. Now all of a sudden, every time my iPad goes to sleep it loses the connection all together. I've already tried resetting the network and also location in the settings. Any other ideas?
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

I have been using the new Yahoo Mail on Firefox. But today I noticed that when I write an email (Compose/Reply/Forward), I cannot format it. Only the 'Attachments' tab is present, but the 'Emoticons' and 'Format' tabs are not.
But when I do it using Internet Explorer, all those tabs are present and I can format and do whatever.
Is there something wrong with my Firefox? I have restarted my computer, I have shut it down, but my Yahoo Mail remains problematic when using Firefox.Firefox only allows you to save executable files. If you want to add an option to run them you can use the OpenDownload² add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/opendownload-10902
