Applications :: How Do I Fill A Column With Numbers And Equations Automatically In Numbers

Jul 17, 2010

I've been ripping my hair out trying to find the answer to this.

In Numbers for Mac, I need to fill a column automatically with a series of integers (1 - 50) and then the next column with a function that interacts with the first column.

For example:

Column A - 1 - 5

Column B - (value in Column A * 5)

I can't figure out how to do it in Numbers When I try to fill column a with 1 - 50 all it does is fill all 1's and I cant find an option how to make that change so it automatically numbers when I highlight them.

The best I can describe is how in Excel you can type 1 in the first cell, then highlight a bunch of cells and the little box appears that lets you click "Fill Series"

I'm sure this is easy to answer by someone with basic spreadsheet skills, which I lack... I have a column of numbers (miles) and a column of use (Personal, Medical, Business). How do I set up 3 formulas so that I get the sum of the mileage column for each of the Personal, Medical, and Business categories?

Applications :: Smart Column Splitting In Numbers

Sep 24, 2010

I have a .txt file that is quite long and I need to get some data off of it. The file is made up of a few thousand lines each with a format similar to: 1 2.4 5.4 abcde abc.def, The 1, the 2.4, the 5.4, etc each signify a different value and I need to somehow get them into separate columns into excel. The number of digits in everything except the first value (which is always one digit) varies, and all the values are separated by spaces. What is going to be the easiest way for me to get these values into numbers in separate columns? Realistically, doing this manually isn't an option.

Applications :: Numbers - Formula Not Let To Select Cells - Only Whole Column

Oct 17, 2009

I'm new to iworks and have trying to figure this one out for a while. I used a template to set up financial info and calculate how much was spent on items. This was the preset formula: =SUMIF(Transactions :: $Category,A2,Transactions :: Amount)

However, I only want the sum from a particular range of dates (e.g. 9/1/09 to 9/30/09, as in cells B2:B10) so I can budget accordingly. In excel, you just grab the highlighted corner and drag it to where you want- here I can't do that and it won't let me add any more "conditions". Any idea how to remedy this? It's driving me nuts. On a side note, I am NOT a programmer so programming language will unfortunately not help unless you get VERY specific about how to do it (which you probably don't want to do).

Applications :: Input Numbers In Numbers As Degrees Instead Of Radians?

Mar 24, 2009

See above title. i get that there's the "degree(cell)" function, but there has to be an easier way to change the settings so you can just input in degrees rather than radians.

like how calculators have a degrees and radians mode, i find it so hard to believe that there isn't one in numbers. if there really isn't, this is an incredibly flawed program.

Applications :: Creating Graphs In Numbers?

Oct 19, 2010

I just have a quick question about Numbers (iWork '09). I need to graph some supply and demand graphs for school. How would I go about doing this? Whenever I create a graph based on a chart, it just plots each row as it's own line. I can only edit the values in the Y-axis, and obviously I need to be able to work with the X-axis as well.

Update: I played around with it more and figured it out. I guess you have to graph it as a scatter plot and then choose to connect the dots, and remove the dots, rather than choose the line graph, whose icon looks just like a graph of supply and demand.

Applications :: IWorks 08 - Numbers Freezing?

Jun 30, 2008

I'm a recent switcher from Excel to Numbers. For the life of me, I cannot find a way in Numbers to "freeze" headings so that as you scroll down or across the sheet they remain visible.

I'd be grateful for help; the matter is not covered in the video tutorials, nor in my little manual that came with iWorks, nor on the Help Menu.

Applications :: Using Numbers For Accounts Receivable

Feb 13, 2009

I am using numbers for my accounts receivable. I have a formula which some dude created for me *years* ago that I used in Claris Works and it *seems* to work most of the time in Numbers. Anyway, the formula provides for either a debit or a credit and a balance. This is how it normally looks. However, for some weird reason the balance gets all screwed up whenever I enter cents into the equation. Check this out. I entered 5192 in the credit section and it changed the balance accordingly. However, when I add the 70 cents (.70) to the credit, the balance looks all messed up.

Applications :: Unable To Use Numbers Formula

Mar 14, 2009

I'm trying to create a template for legal billing. The only thing I'm really having a problem with is the formula that multiplies time by hourly rate. The time spent cells are formatted to show it as 4h 5m ... and that totals perfectly with the SUM formula. When I multiply it with a rate cell formatted to currency the math is fine, but the format stays as 00h 00m ... even when I format that cell to currency.

Applications :: Saving As Excel In Numbers

Oct 28, 2009

I recently bought a Macbook Pro (and loving it) with iWork 09 pre-installed. I really like using numbers compared to office. However, I have just started working in a group where all the other members use Windows with Office 2007. I have been able to save my numbers (and pages) documents as the office equivalent. My problem lies when I am working on a document in numbers that is the office format. I like to continuously save my progress but whenever i press save, I have to save it as a whole new document or replace the existing one. When I used to work in office 2007 I used to just press save every now and then and it would save my changes. Am I doing something wrong or is it because I am working on an excel spreadsheet in numbers (word document in pages)?

Applications :: Rounding Numbers In Excel?

Nov 28, 2009

A sheet of ply comes 1220mm wide and my staircase is 1200 wide. Therefore I get two out of one cut of ply. Used an 'if' function <1220 to divide by two as I get two out of one sheet if it's less than 1220.

Cell D11 calculates the amount of ply (as width measurement) needed by using an 'if' function, and E11 works it out as an actual sheet. The problem is it's showing 0.47 instead of rounding it to the nearest whole sheet (1), even if only 10mm is used I need to buy a whole sheet.

Applications :: Using Excel Formula In Numbers

Feb 22, 2010

I am a newly converted Mac user and have some entrenched Excel habits, and try as I might, I couldn't locate this Excel formula in Numbers.

In Excel, I use "=C55 (or cell reference)" to copy that particular value from one worksheet to another.

I do this by clicking on the cell where I want the value to be copied to, type = and then switch to the other worksheet and click on the cell I want to copy. And voila, I am now back onto my 1st worksheet with the value showing. I do this because the value I want to copy to this cell changes regularly.

Applications :: Changing Numbers To Hours?

Apr 15, 2010

When I format a cell as time (13:30), why does it go to 00:00 when i enter "2." I want it to go to 2:00, but the only way to do it is enter the colon myself... there must be a way to enter "2" and have the cell show "2:00."

I am trying to compare an estimated time to actual time. The problem is my estimate is 4-5 hours. How can I make 4-5 hours show up(in number format) in one cell... is that even possible or do I need to make two cells, one for min time and one for max time?

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Applications With Serial Numbers From Old To New Mac

Jun 15, 2012

I just purchased a new Retina Display MBP as an upgrade to my old iMac.I have over 200 Applications taking up the bulk of my drive, many of which have serial numbers that I no longer even know of due to loss of original boxes, or what have you. I am trying to avoid copying all of my content over to the new MBP, I would much rather just move what I actually need to and try to keep it a little "cleaner". So my question is, with a Time Machine Backup of my iMac... Can I plug that into the MacBook Pro, launch Time Machine, and simply drag the last backup's Applications over? Will the ones with the serial numbers run?

Info:
iMac (21.5-inch Mid 2010), Mac OS X (10.7.3)

Applications :: Can't Open Numbers Doc From Mobile Me On MacBook Air?

Oct 15, 2010

Got a weird problem. I store alot of documents on my iDisk so I can access them on either my MacBook Air or my iMac. It has worked great for several years.

I'm using Numbers '08 on both computers and both computers are completely updated.

Several weeks ago, the MacBook Air quit allowing me to open a Numbers document stored on Mobile Me. When I try to open a Numbers doc, I get a message saying, "The document could not be opened."

However, all is fine on my iMac. All numbers documents will open as normal from Mobile Me.

Also, other types of documents will open fine on the MacBook Air from Mobile Me i.e. Preview, Pages.

I tried copying a Numbers doc from Mobile Me to the Air, but I get an error stating, "The operation can be completed because and unexpected error occurred(error code -8084)."

Also, If I'm not dealing with Mobile Me, Numbers seems to work fine on the Air. I can create documents and open them fine.

In desperation, I did a clean install on the Air, but to no avail. I still have the same problem.

I can't think of anything I did to the Air to make it suddenly quit opening docs from Mobile Me.

Applications :: Adding Drop - Down Menu In Numbers

Oct 20, 2010

I am attempting to modify the given template CHECKING ACCOUNT REGISTER in Numbers. I have figured everything out except how to modify the "Category" column where a drop-down menu is given for several recurring items (Home/Gas/Food/etc.) that are to be entered in that column. I would like to find how to create such a column or to be able to modify the one provided in the template. The TRANSACTIONS table is linked to the ACCOUNT CATEGORIES table which is linked to the CHART. That is intact and working as it should, but I have been unable to alter the column CATEGORY so that the drop down items will be ones that I want to use. Having the drop-down menu insures proper itemization in the linked ACCOUNT CATEGORIES table where typos are avoided as a result. The PDF manual was of little help (to me anyway) in addressing this seemingly simple alteration.
