Any way to move a non-DRM pdf from iBooks on iPad to Mac?

I downloaded a large number of pdfs from the web to my iPad and "saved" them in iBooks. Scare quotes fully justified. There are numerous posts describing situations in which people have lost such files, particularly when they have tried to use something seemingly safe like backing up the iPad and then using restore.
Is there anyway to backup these files:
- Export from iBooks?
- Backup of iPad via iTunes or iCloud?
- Sync via iTues?
There is an option in iBooks that lets the user email a single file, but this would be extremely tedious to do for every single file.
Is anyone aware of any comparable instance in which a vendor makes it so difficult to move content out of an application, impossible to backup, and so easy to lose?

And what useful purpose does it serve to poll users for this type of information in a user to user support forum? If you want to rant or complain, your using the wrong venue. Like deggie, I have never lost anything when updating or restoring from a backup.
Try another PDF app as there are probably hundreds of them in the App Store. The Adobe Reader app that allows you to highlight, annotate, sign, read and fill out form fields, create folders, and so much more that you can do in iBooks. It works with file sharing and iTunes and it is free.

Transferring your prepaid cellular data account depends on your carrier. AT&T lets you move it yourself when you go to Cellular Data in Settings and log into your account with your previous AT&T user name and password. For iPads with Sprint service, you can set up an account on the new iPad and contact Sprint Customer Care (888-211-4727 and go through the menus) to deactivate the old plan and get credit for unused service. For Verizon, call the company’s customer service number for mobile broadband support (800-786-8419) and ask to have your account transferred.

Is there any way to move a file or something from one computer to another that will let the new computer backup my iphone over wifi? I don't want to have to sync my phone to the new computer (my sons computer).

Hi,
I have my iphone 3GS setup to be able to backup and sync with my computer over wifi. But I want to be able to backup to my sons computer also.
The things is I don't want to have to sync to his computer first to do this. Is there a file or something I can move from my computer that is setup to his that would let his see my iphone over wifi?

If you don't have access to the old computer any longer, '''no'''. Unless you were using something like the Google Toolbar & Google Bookmarks or Xmarks, which would have your bookmarks in an online account that you could access. Firefox doesn't include an online storage feature for personal data, yet. That is coming in a future version.
If you have a friend at your old job maybe they have access to that old PC and they could export your bookmarks to a file and email that file to you.

Is there any way to batch Word 2007 to PDF from Acrobat?

I am trying to put together my teaching portfolio and I have a lot of papers I had written in Word 2003/2007 and would like to convert them to pdf to include in my ePortfolio. I have been exporting to pdf one at a time but frankly, I have over 200 .DOC files and I am looking for a quicker way. I did not see an option in Batch Processing unless I overlooked it. Can anyone help?

For the printers, go to START>Printers & ... Then you should see the printers on your computer. Just drag the DOC files to the Adobe PDF printer. That should do it. You might want to check the printer properties in terms of naming files, where they are being saved and such. Try a few first to see what happens. If this works, you are on your way.
I am not sure why you wanted the OCR. That has no bearing on WORD files. OCR can only be done on pure graphics files with no markup or text.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

Any way to move the slide workspace?

I'd like to be able to create action moves that start from outside the top and the left edges of a slide.
As long as the slide workspace is anchored on the top and left sides, it's close to impossible to accurately start a move from the top or the left.
Is there any way to move the slide workspace into the center of its work window, like in PowerPoint?
Thanks,
Eric

I do about the same things than you do: "primarily for proposal presentations, training, and speaker support for business meetings." What makes my presentations amazing: a very helpful characteristic of Keynote is the ability to copy and paste from Photoshop or Illustrator vector logos or other pieces of artwork, as well as importing PSDs with transparency and play with them in slides. Along with the new features in Keynote 4 (Smart Builds, Actions, etc.), I can now make my presentations move a lot more and with less work. I don't say my presentations are traditional: they have to be impressive enough to catch potential clients for my job. So sometimes I have to make some sort of movies out of Keynote, that last about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Some kind of stuff that would take days with Flash, but only a few hours with Keynote, and with the possibility to change many aspects of it in a minute, as opposed to Flash, again.
I do not experiment a lot with PowerPoint, because as far as I used to know, many of the features I mentioned above aren't part of PowerPoint. PowerPoint doesn't give enough control about animation duration. The choices are like "Very long, long, medium, fast, very fast". With Keynote, YOU set the timer. You want the animation to take 0.7 sec., it will! My little movies I was writing you about are timed as sharp as that, because I put music on them as well. Everything has to go one at the right time.
You probably think I should go for a much better 2D or 3D animation software than Keynote, but what is also interesting with Keynote is ease of use. I don't have to be a professional in animation to go the distance required. For now... I'm just getting started, though.

Is there any way to move AAC Protected Files to my new Macbook?

I had an older PC laptop and at the time I bought over 300 songs in 2007 that were all coded as AAC Protected. I've upgraded to a Macbook Pro and am trying to move those songs to my iTunes on that computer but am having issues. It keeps telling me that have to authorize the songs, which I have done, and I then get a message confirming that the macbook is an authorized computer. However, I still can't play the other songs. I'd like to rely on the Macbook for my iTunes but don't want to lose those songs. Does anyone know of any way to move those songs over? (I've tried home sharing and using an external hard drive.)

Is it possible that the tracks were purchased via a different iTunes Store account than the one you're using to authorize the MacBook? You can Get Info on a sampling of the tracks that will not play and confirm the account under which they were purchased. If you find that they were indeed purchased through another iTunes Store account, just authorize the MBP to that account as well.
Hope this helps.

What randers4 said. HOWEVER, if the photos were taken with a higher resolution camera than the iPhone what you recover will not be as high a resolution as the originals.

Is there any way that you can delete APPS that come on the iPad? For example, the stock app, can you delete that or is it permanently on there?

Is there any way that you can delete APPS that come on the iPad 2 when you buy it? For example, the stock app, can you delete that or is it permanently on there?

You cannot delete the preinstalled apps on the iPad. You can check by tapping and holding down on the icon until it wiggles. If no X appears, you cannot delete it.
Move it to another screen or bury it in a folder called" Stuff I don't Want"

Is the any way to totally delete a TV show from the iCloud?

Is the any way to totally delete a TV show from the iCloud?

No. TV Shows are kept in the cloud which is a different thing all together from iCloud. iCloud is your own personal strage space for backups and other App data. "the cloud" in the case of Tv shows and movies is in Apple's own media servers. So you can't simply delete a show from there.
This however means that the show in the cloud is not taking up space in your iCloud storage. As Axeman points out: you can Hide it, but you'll need a computer to do so.

I'm afraid you can't do this. You can't delete an iCloud account, and even if you delete an alias you still can't move it to another account or turn into an ID.
