Why is Numbers on Mac OS X 10.10 not opening files was working about a week ago, my iPhone numbers is still opening and working with the files?

This is what message I get when trying to open on my Mac OS X 10.10 (The file “Record of Work Nov28-Dec11-2014.numbers” couldn’t be opened), which the same file that can be opened from my IOS 8.1 iPhone.
Seriously *** gives

The most likely reason you can't open this file is that you are using an old version of Numbers. It's easy to accidentally attempt to open your document with the previous version (V2).
In rare cases, the document can be corrupt and your only recourse is to grab a backup copy.

  • The "Clear Recent History" setting under "Tools" suddenly stopped working about two weeks ago and is still not working with version 8.0. I am running Mac OX 10.6.8 on a desktop

    Until a couple of weeks ago I could clear my history under the "Tools" setting.
    Now the only way I am able to clear history is to open the history, select all, and then delete---all manually.

    Dear cor-el:
    I did restart in Safe Mode; however, I DID make change in the Safe Mode restart window, resetting to defaults.
    Not only did this not help, but now it is worse, as my history won't show up when I click "Show All History" so I am unable to clear history even manually.
    Did I misunderstand your suggestion? I've been using Firefox with various versions of OX 10 for years w/o such a problem, and now have so many bookmarks on Firefox that I hate to abandon the browser.
    However, I do not wish to have a permanent, unclearable history.
    Below is a screenshot of how the Safe Mode page appeared.

  • My numbers program created on my mac version 3.0 won't work on my ipad version 2.0. It says I have to save the file with preview option but there is no such option in preferences. Any thoughts?

    my spreadsheet created with numbers program version 3.0 created on my mac won't work on my ipad version 2.0. It says I have to save the file with preview option but there is no such option in preferences. Any thoughts?

    For the update to run Aperture must be installed in the system Application folder and named simply Aperture, not Aperture3.2.2 or anything else.
    I don't know if this would also affect photo stream but if your Aperture is misnamed or installed in an incorrect location fixing that to see if it clears up the problem would be a good first step.

  • I am using Numbers app for the ipad and it has been working absolutely fine but now, when I want to email a spreadsheet as a PDF via the 'share and print' option, the file now doesn't appear as an attachment to the recipient. Any ideas please?

    Hi mafiose15,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Restoring your iPod to factory settings is the best way to try and get it back to working order. You can use the instructions below to restore it:
    How to restore iPod
    Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
    Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
    Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
    After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
    Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
    Click Restore.
    If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
    A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
    Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
    Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
    During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
    Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
    After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.
    You can find the instructions in this article:

  • I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 and I've paired it to my Mac. It was all working fine up until about a week ago, but now when I try to "Send file to device" nothing happens...

    I've had my Mac and my Samsung for about 2 yeas now and I haven't had any problems with the two in regards to Bluetooth. As of about a week ago, I could no longer send files from my Mac to my Samsung. I don't know what has gone wrong, but the devices are still paired and I haven't changed any settings. I don't understand how it can just stop working
    When I click the "send File to device" option, it doesn't freeze or give me any notice stating the devices are not connected, it just does nothing.

    I have the opposite problem. I cannot "browse device".
    I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 mini which was working fabulously through Kies and Bluetooth (on Lion) until I upgraded to Mavericks about 3 weeks ago.
    Now, when I go to Bluetooth and "Browse Device", the following happens:
    The Mac will eventually find the phone, say "connected" then it will say "the device does not have the necessary services".  This is despite the fact that both are discoverable and have been previously paired.
    Bizzarely though, I can send a file from my Mac to my phone through the "send file" command.  That works fine....
    Is there something I am doing wrong or is this problem just symptomatic of the ongoing Apple-Samsung spat?
    And yes, I know that Kies is now no longer supported by Mavericks and vice versa (boo!), so I have had to use other rather cranky solutions (Android File Transfer) and a faffy google calendar sync to sort the rest of the compatability problems out. The Bluetooth issue is just odd though. 
    If this is just an Apple-Samsung software war problem, I really wish both would grow up.  Many people no longer care who made what first, we just want stuff that works.  If iPhone contracts were cheaper, I would get one, but I refuse to pay more than £15 p/m for a mobile phone, sorry Apple.

  • I backed up files onto an external hard rive form my old PC. Now I want to retrieve the files to put on my mac but it is telling me to format it to Mac. How can I do this without erasing all of the data on my hard drive?

    Your drive was used with a PC and formatted NTFS which is proprietary Microsoft format.
    You need to install a third party program that will read the NTFS format.
    There is various software from PARAGON, Tuxera and NTFS-3G
    When you get the data off and have verified it to be good, reformat the drive either HFS+ for Mac use only, or for Mac and PC use then MSDOS (FAT32) for under 4GB files (best) or exFAT (for larger than 4GB files) is proprietary and Microsoft is appling for a patent, which would likely mean OS X won't be allowed to read it anymore without a licensing fee and you'l have to pay another third party software company to read the format, just like NTFS is.
    The less you have to rely upon third party sources to read your drives the better, this way if you have a issue and need to read the drive on another machine you don't need the software, and a internet connection and a credit card and...and...and...

  • How do I sync my calendar and contacts with the calendar and contacts on my phone? My laptop is Mac OS X, 10.6.8 and still has MobileMe on it.

    My MacBook Pro is a few years old and I recently got an iPhone 4S. I want to know how I sync my calendar and contacts with the calendar and contacts on my phone? My laptop is Mac OS X, 10.6.8 and still has MobileMe on it. I tried to download iCloud but then I'd have to download and pay for a new OS.
    If anyone could help me with this that would be great.

    Hello Fiona,
    Congratulations on your new iPhone!  You can sync information to your iPhone from your MacBook Pro using the Info tab in iTunes when your iPhone is connected.  Use the steps in the following article:

    If the Mac's firmware was updated, you can try this Internet Recovery:
    Hold down Command + Option + R during restart or bootup; hold until you see a spinning globe (takes up to 10 minutes). Once in the Utilities window, use Disk utility to wipe the drive, then return to the window and choose to reinstall OS X. If that works, the OS will be installed without being tied to an Apple ID.
    FWIW, if the firmware was updated, you will not be able to use the Snow leopard disk to install - I just did several tests and it does not work. You can, however, possibly install the SL onto an external drive and then clone it to the internal or (if you have a clone), boot from that and clone it back - I just tested that as well.
    If the firmware was not updated, then you can use the SL install disk.

    Boot into Recovery. OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support
    Select Terminal from the Utilities menu.
    At the prompt type,
    resetpassword
    Hit return.
    Follow the prompts in the utility to select hard drive, then user.
    Reset the password.
    Exit the utility and restart.
    You will need to log in with your new password, but your keychain will not be reset.
    I’m not sure what access you’ll have to the old keychain since it didn’t have a password. You may be able to get into the keychain and reset the password to match your login password.

  • Why Do I have to load adobe Flashplayer each time I switch my computer off and on again this only started about 2 weeks ago is it a firefox problem or an adobe issue????

    Why Do I have to load adobe Flashplayer each time I switch my computer off and on again this only started about 2 weeks ago is it a firefox problem or an adobe issue. I am using adobe Flashplayer ver 11

    This is a good question. It's possible your Xserver isn't configured for the correct mouse type. Try logging into a command line console (no X11 running). Run /usr/bin/X11/X -configure. It should create an Xorg configuration file in your root directory.
    Copy this to /etc/X11/Xorg.conf and try restarting your Xserver. The file it creates might require some tweaking.
