Tips for Numbers to Excel
- 01
Use an unlocked file
Encrypted Numbers files are rejected. Open the file in Numbers and save a copy without a password first.
- 02
Check formula cells
Some formula cells stay blank in the workbook. Check those cells after you open the file in Excel.
- 03
Keep the file under 20 MB
Larger spreadsheets are rejected so the conversion can finish in the browser.
- 04
Open it as Excel
The download uses the .xlsx extension. Renaming a .numbers file to .xlsx does not create this workbook.
Great for
Someone who uses Excel
Turn a .numbers spreadsheet into the workbook Excel opens.
A shared table
Keep the same cell values when the other person does not have Numbers.
More than one table
Each table in the Numbers file becomes its own worksheet.
A private conversion
Build the workbook on your device when you do not want to upload the spreadsheet.
