Can I add many books to the ADE Library at one time

I download books from multiple sources, often free ebooks from archive.org, etc. I download the books into the Digital Editions folder on my computer, but there doesn't seem to be a way for ADE to automatically find epub files in a folder and add those to its own ADE library. If I open a book from the folder, ADE wants to add it to the library. If I accept, it makes a copy of the file in the Digital Editions folder where the original file already is. I don't really want lots of duplicate files on my computer.
One, is there a way for ADE to find epub and pdf files in a folder and automatically add them to its ADE library? Am I missing something?
Two, if not, what do you do?

yea... i faced this problem many a time... have run apple sceipts to delete these songs....

What's with the monthly subscription? Can we no longer just buy the program as a one-time fee?

What's with the monthly subscription? Can we no longer just buy the program as a one-time fee?

Yes you can, but they have made it very confusing as to that option (trying to get folks to use subscription -- please let them know what you think of this policy). The link is at http://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/software._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_software _sl_mostpopular.html. The default is the subscription, but if you click on the "I want to buy" drop down list there is both the full and upgrade versions available. It is so confusing that if you don't know it is available you would probably never find it. I did not find it until some other MVPs pointed it out and several of us have complained.

I recently updated my iPhone 4s to ios6, and lost 1200 odd contacts. I have a backup from about 4-5 months ago avaiable. Can I add/update contacts from the back up rather than restore which i assume will literally delete any new contacts added...?

I recently updated my iPhone 4s to ios6, and lost 1200 odd contacts. I recently sold my macbook air and also my mac book pro, so have no recent backups avaiable. I have a backup from about 4-5 months ago available on an external hdd as a time machine backup. Can I add/update contacts from the back up rather than restore? The reason i wish to do this is because in the update i didnt lose any messages, so all of the people i have met and networked with since that last update those many months ago, i have in my messages listings. They are all unidentified numbers at present but over time i will be able to work through the messages and based on the conversation recall who each was with. Also, yesterday, some two weeks after the update had left my contacts list entirely empty... a vast majority just reappeard, though all of them are without any phone numbers, all just emails or facebook contacts. This is the work of facebook not mac/ios6 isnt it...? Any help here would be greatly apprecaited. I am about 2 days from flying to canada and having those contacts would make life a lot easier.

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

I have an iPad 2 with iOS 5.1 and iBooks version 2.1.1. I have 64GB of storage, 80% is used. iBooks is using 250MB of storage. I have a large number of PDF files in my iBooks library. At this time I can not add another book or PDF file to my library.

I have an iPad 2 with iOS 5.1 and iBooks version 2.1.1. I have 64GB of storage, 80% is used. iBooks is using 250MB of storage. I have a large number of PDF files in my iBooks library. At this time I can not add another book or PDF file to my library. When I try to move a PDF file to iBooks the system works for a while...sometimes the file appears and than disappears....sometimes the file never appears. Is ther some limit to the number of books or total storage used in IBooks? Thanks....

Hi jybravo70,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you may be experiencing issues on your non iOS 8 devices because iOS 8 is required to set up or join a Family Sharing group.
The following information is located in the print at the bottom of the article.
Apple - iCloud - Family Sharing
Family Sharing requires a personal Apple ID signed in to iCloud and iTunes. Music, movies, TV shows, and books can be downloaded on up to 10 devices per account, five of which can be computers. iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite are required to set up or join a Family Sharing group and are recommended for full functionality. Not all content is eligible for Family Sharing.
Have a great day,

How can I transfer PDF books to the kindle app

how can I transfer PDF books to the kindle app

There are many ways to import your PDFs into Papers for iPad. Obviously the preferred way is if you have a Mac and also use Papers for Mac**. The two apps can wirelessly sync their libraries. But also without a Mac there are plenty of ways. You can upload PDFs directly via iTunes, or you can import PDFs attached to an email from Mail on the iPad. Alternatively, use the Papers bookmarklet to open a webpage you found in Mobile Safari and download the PDF from there. Or you can use the built-in search engines to search for articles and download the PDFs.

Open the iBooks app. All your iBooks should load there.
You can see the file size for each iBook by clicking List from the menu bar top of the iBooks window.

Can't add pdf book to iBooks

Upgraded to iOS 8.3 on iPad Mini, using Mavericks and iTunes 12,1,2,27 on early 2008 MacPro
Can't add pdf books to iBooks like i used to . I normally use the add to library command to achieve this but books don't show up
Following numerous tries and un plugging iPad Mini and restarting iTunes, i searched for my iPad library in my home lib ray to discover the books i wanted to add are now in the iTunes Media folder (where my music is) but as unknown artist. I have separate libraries for my iPhone and another iPad and these show the books folder which seems to have disappeared from my iPad folder.
Also when trying to synchronize iTunes said it lost connection and could not save my iPad Mini numerous times.
Also the general info bar at the bottom of my iTunes window is now all confused as to the size and contents of my iPad Mini. I have about 25000 photos and it says i only have 235Mb of photos where it should be closer to 15 GB. The miscellaneous portion in that bar is rating this content at about 16Gb.
Can someone help ?

This probably isn't helpful, but what you did does work in 10.6 Snow Leopard.
I dragged one of my PDF eBooks into iTunes and it showed up in the Books section.
But when I clicked on it, it displayed it in Adobe Acrobat, just the same as if I'd clicked on the original file itself.
I don't see any advantatge to importing eBooks into iTunes, especially PDF eBooks ... unless you're syncing with an iPhone, I guess ... even then you'll need a good pdf viewer on the iPhone unless you convert the PDFs to ePubs.
You might also post your problem in the 10.7 Lion discussion group.

Can not add a picture to the JFrame from an ActionListener class

As topic says, I can not add a picture to the JFrame from an ActionListener class which is a class inside the JFrame class.
I have a Map.java class where I load an image with ImageIcon chosen with JFileChooser.
I my window class (main class), I have following:
class OpenImage_Listener implements ActionListener
     public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
          int ans = open.showOpenDialog(MainProgram.this);     // "open" is the JFileChooser reference
          if(ans == open.APPROVE_OPTION)
               File file = open.getSelectedFile();
               MainProgram.this.add(new Map(file.getName()), BorderLayout.CENTER);     // this line does not work - it does not add the choosen picture on the window,
                        //but if I add the picture outside this listener class and inside the MainProgram constructor, the picture apperas, but then I cannot use the JFileChooser.
                        showMessageDialog(MainProgram.this, fil.getName() ,"It works", INFORMATION_MESSAGE); // this popup works, and thereby the ActionListener also works.
}So why can�t I add a picture to the window from the above listener class?

The SSCCE:
Ok, I think I solved it with the picture, but now I cannot add new components after adding the picture.
Look at the comment in the actionlistener class:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.io.*;
public class Test extends JFrame{
     JButton b = new JButton("Open");
     JFileChooser jfc = new JFileChooser(System.getProperty("user.dir"));
     Picture pane;
     Test(){
          super("Main Program");
          setLayout(new BorderLayout());
          JPanel north = new JPanel();
          add(north, BorderLayout.NORTH);
          north.add(b);
          b.addActionListener(new Listener());
          setVisible(true);
          setSize(500,500);
          pane = new Picture("");
          add(pane, BorderLayout.CENTER);
     class Listener implements ActionListener {
          public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
               int ans = jfc.showOpenDialog(Test.this);
               if(ans == jfc.APPROVE_OPTION)
                    File file = jfc.getSelectedFile();
                    Test.this.add(new Picture(file.getName()), BorderLayout.CENTER);
                    pane.add(new JButton("NEW BUTTON")); // Why does this button not appear on the window???
                    pane.repaint();
                    pane.revalidate();
     public static void main(String[] args)
          Test t = new Test();
class Picture extends JPanel
     Image pic;
     String filename;
     Picture(String filename)
          setLayout(null);
          this.filename = filename;
          pic = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(filename);
        protected void paintComponent(Graphics g)
            super.paintComponent(g);
            g.drawImage(pic,0,0,getWidth(),getHeight(),this);
            revalidate();
}

How can i add two values under the same property?

Hi all,
How can i add two values under the same property name in a
prop list? For example:
[question1: "item1","item2", question2: "item3","item4"]
To be more precise, i am creating a property list and I want
whenever a two values have the same property name to be added int
he list under the same property. For example:
gMyList.AddProp (#""&question&"" & x,
member("input").text)
question is a variable that is updated fromt he user's input.
Now, whenever somethign like this happens:
question = "question1"
member("input").text = "five"
question = "question1"
member("input").text = "six"
I want to output list to be:
[question1: "five","six"] and so on
Any ideas?

Maybe you could make each property a list (so you have a
property list full
of lists), and add multiple values to the list held in a
particular
property?
Cheers
Richard Smith

I have a new mac book air and somehow iPhoto was installed twice. Also, a second library was created and it became the default library. I attempted to switch to the original library but it won't open. what can I do to revert to the old library?

I have a new mac book air and somehow iPhoto was installed twice. Also, a second library was created and it became the default library. I attempted to switch to the original library but it won't open. what can I do to revert to the old library?

Both iPhotos open to a default library (#2) which has 300+ photos, I attempted to "switch to library" under the file tab in iPhoto and tried to choose "other library" which had most of my photos. When I attempt to open it, it doesn't do anything. I can see it and there are 2 libraries but it won't open.
Have you tried to open your old iPhoto library by double-clicking it directly, instead of using the File menu? That should work, if you are running iPhoto '11 and the library has been created by that version or an older version. DO you get an error message, if you select the library directly in the Finder?
I checked and it is the latest version of iPhoto.
Is it iPhoto '11, version 6.0.5? "Latest version" is ambiguous, because it will depend on your system version.
Where is your iPhoto Library stored?

Thanks.

There's not an option to add a word to the dictionary. However, after typing that word several times, it will start to recognize it and offer it as a suggested word.
