Q: Numbers manual for Numbers on Macbook?

There are some basic manuals including iWorks, here:

• searched: Mac OS X Numbers manual in .pdf (says one for iWork '09)

https://www.google.com/search?q=Mac+OS+X+Numbers+manual+in+.pdf

These others are perhaps interesting to the degree they could be helpful

to a novice or to cover general information on using iWork segments.

Well, a good book such as a 'Missing Manuals for iWork ' recent

version, would be a great offline reference that you can read ahead.

I have an older copy for iWorks '09, from second-hand store: 30¢

Good luck & happy computing!

{a PS to the above...}

The newest version Numbers, part of a most new iWork rework,

may have different methods or interface changes, so if you are

looking for an online manual for that, look into Apple Support links.

Also I found this newsy article about changes coming:

•About the new iWork for Mac: Features & Compatibility (Feb 2014)

Appears this is saying things are changing; however versions

between iWork '09 and the Numbers within it, likely vary some

from more recent editions of Numbers application for Mac.

Had some issues in the above post, in that I had several browser

windows open checking some leads, and then things got Slower.

(Slow enough, but sloowerr gets into bad territory with a G4 Mini.)

Hopefully some of these bits help

Good luck & happy computing!
