Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Thanks, Typo. Given the nature of this project and the team members involved, I'm not sure that's a viable option, but I will keep it in mind to request of the in-house assistant if it becomes necessary.
Mostly I'm just hoping it's something that is contained to these chapters from this source and not something that will spread to other files.
I doubt it is malware - more a problem with the way the source interacts with word. Hope Doc rather than DocX solves it. You could also use Open Office in spite of the clunky interface compared to word for this one set of documents and just save as doc or docx. The problem is that you would have to examine carefully in word, because in that kind of conversion dormatting can be lost or damanged - expecially headers, footers, footnotes and endnotes. Also problems can occur with table formatting, and graphics sizing and justification. Huh. I'm not sure I'm actually being helpful here.
I'm sure it's something to do with the graphics, and not any kind of malware. My other suggestion would be to leave the graphics out until the last minute, but that's usually not plausible.
Well, that's reassuring anyway.
Does anybody here have a Lynda.com membership that allows you to download exercise files? I could really use the one for Practical & Effective JavaScript if so....
One of the jobs where I'm applying wants a video of me teaching. I had one of my friends video my class yesterday, on my iPad. I just tried to post the video to YouTube, from the iPad, and the iPad just froze. Touching the screen doesn't do anything. Pressing the square button gets me back to the home screen. The video did not post to YouTube. I tried iCloud, and same thing happened. Any suggestions?
OK, wait, it seems that, if I just leave it alone after it freezes, then eventually, it starts uploading.
Le nubian - it turns out that the university library has an e-book and a physical book that my boss can use.
I have a complicated Excel question.
I have a multi-tabbed spreadsheet. Each tab is sorted by archive and has a subtotal indicating how many seconds from that archive we've sold. What I want is a summary sheet which adds up all the subtotals.
Is there a formula which will look for "News Subtotal" in each tab and then take the number in the cell next to it? I feel like SUMIF should do this but I don't know how it works.
