Adobe won't give me the option to 'open' files without saving.
I was not able to open .pdf files at all and realised that Adobe Reader had somehow 'gone' from my laptop. I have reinstalled the latest version but if I want to 'open' an attachment in n email it will only give me the option to 'Save' the file. I don't want to Save every file. Can someone please advise me how to get back the option to just ' open' the file?
I use Internet Explorer for my browser.
A/A - I have reinstalled the latest version of AdobeReader.
When I click an attachment to view it, the first option I am given is to 'save' the file, and then the next pop up message gives me the option to either 'open' or 'view file'. The thing is that I don't want to 'save' each file to my laptop to allow me to see it. I want to be able to merely 'open' the file to view aithout actually saving it first.

I use an external hard drive as a Time Machine back up, but I want to use another external hard drive to save movies, photos on it, but it won't give me the option to save anything on the new external hard drive. Nothing is wrong with the external hard.
Hi Clarkett99,
To use an external hard drive for your iTunes library, see the steps in this article -

iPhoto can be used in a similar way, follow the steps in this previous discussion -

I downloaded an album but one of the songs is corrupted, it only plays for about 4 seconds. When I try to re-download using the iTunes Store and "Purchased", it won't give me the option to download it again. How can I get the song I PAID for!!??
Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption -
For the security questions, it won't give me the option to change it. Like when I go to manage my account,it doesn't say " send security code." What should I do?
The reset will only show if you had put a rescue email address on your account, if you aren't getting the link then you don't have one and you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use -

I am trying to configure some new unsupervised iPod touch 4th generation using Apple Configurator but it won't give me the option to install the app that appears on the Apps tab. I have tested the to see whether it works in supervised mode and it does but in Prepare mode it won't let me tick the box.
Any ideas anyone?

whenever I try to save a PDF document on mu iPad, it will only open up as text in my email and won't give me an option to download and save. Any suggestions?
You can hold down on the open PDF and get the option to Open In - in the resulting pop up window.

I see how to delete songs from iPad, but there are some songs that don't give me the option to delete when I swipe them. Why can't I get rid of these songs?
Do they have a cloud icon next to them? If they do, they aren't on the iPad so you can't delete them. They are in iCloud ready for you to download them if you want to and they are visible in the music app for this purpose.
If you don't want to see these songs that are in iCloud, go to Settings> iTunes & App Store>Show all>Music>Off. -
FF thinks PDF files are binary files, doesn't give me the option to open them
I just got a new Mac, running OSX 10.7 Lion. I downloaded Firefox because I like it better than Safari. It's Firefox 7.0.1.
Aside from the fact that I can't figure out how to get all my bookmarks from the old mac to the new one, a really annoying thing is that I can't get the new Firefox to recognize PDF files as Acrobat documents. It thinks they are "binary" files, and the only option I have is to save them to disk.
I looked at the Applications preferences, and there is no entry for PDF files. I can't seem to create one. I checked the help and it says that to add a download preference you find the type of file you're interested in, click to download it, and tell it "open with" the application you want. But I don't get that option with PDF files, it doesn't let me tell it what to open it with, the only thing it allows me to do is either save to disk or cancel.I use Internet Explorer for my browser.

My apps are not showing on my home screen after the new iOS 6 update. They are in my iCloud but it only gives me and option to open. How do I get these apps back on my home screen?
Do you have an Restrictions set that would hide the apps? Settings>General>Restrictions
Have you used the Spotlight search? Maybe you just can't find them.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:

The link to pdf documents, from Safari to iBooks, has ceased to exist on my iPad. What happened & how to fix??? In the past, when opening a pdf thru Safari, just tapping on it, brought up the option to "Open in iBooks", but it no longer pops up. Ugh. Help??
That's correct. You will need to open the PDF in Safari first, then tap Open in "iBooks" (or "Open in ..." to send to other available apps). If the tool bar for this isn't readily visible, tap anywhere on the document to display it.

I have an ipod touch 5th generation 64g . Just bought a new laptop and authorised it to use itunes library. When i try and sync my ipod it says it can't do it because there isn't enough space on my ipod to hold everything in the itunes library. I already know that i can't fit everything on my ipod but when using my old laptop i was able to choose what i wanted to sync. Now i don't seem to have the option of choosing what i can sync, it just refuses to do it as there isn't enough space. Why is this???
Hello, peppertwist.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

How do I update to ios7 if my iPad isn't giving me the option?!?
If it's a first generation iPad, it can't be updated past 5.1.1. Otherwise, check again when Apple's servers aren't as busy.

I need to send an important session today but when i go to file>export>all tracks as audio files, the option doesn't appear. I searched the help bar and did my own research on the internet but i couldn't get any answers. Is anyone else experiencing this problem or knows another solution to export all tracks as audio files?
You aren't running in Garageband mode are you? Do you have ALL of the Logic Preferences/Advanced enabled?
