Can't download large pdf file

I'm trying to download a large pdf file (26.2 mb) to my iPad.  It appears to download, then appears, as 440 blank pages.  It offers to open the file in iBook, but that also doesn't have any results.  Is there a limit on the size of the pdf file it can handle?  I tried to e-mail it from my computer, but the file is too big for my e-mail program.  This is a book I would really love to read on the iPad--how can I get it there?  thanks, B.

Yes, I see that as well. Talk about a bad assumption. I thought from what I had read that the feature worked like Spotlight on the Mac. In fact I could swear I've read that on Apple's site somewhere. Not the first time I was wrong and certainly not the last. Alas I stand corrected again.
Frankly, after investigating the search function further - IMHO - it seems pretty useless.  A number of the apps that I use have their own search functions built in. I've read that you can search for a missing app on your iPad with this feature, but other than that and finding contacts and emails it seems pretty pointless to me.

  • Can't download a PDF file.

    I'm trying to download a PDF file from a financial institution, but all I get is the typical box with the never ending flying file. Nothing else happens. I'm using win xp and explorer. I disabled all security programs but that did not solve the problem. I just don't know what else to try.

    Most likely the server on that institution is slow or overloaded. Try again, or post the download link here.

  • Can I download a PDF file ontol my iPod Classic

    I am trying to figure this out and wanted to know if anyone on the net could tell me.

    And you should be aware that if you do this, you will need to split the files into quite a few notes because the iPod is only capable of displaying the first 4 kilobytes (KB) of text, or about 4096 characters of each note.
    The notes feature isn't really meant for long documents like a multi page PDF file.

  • Can't download large exe file from HP website on 5.0

    Download fails repeatedly when trying to download *.exe driver/sw update from this HP site: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=mp-65961-4&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&os=228&product=3192753&sw_lang=&key=null&site=null
    OS: MS windows XP pro 2002 SP2
    The first download fails. Window w/filename shows up, then I click the 'retry' option (or you can simply right click filename and select 'retry'). It then downloads but I never see file on file system. Changed file download location in firefox settings to different drive, same results. Changed download to always prompt for location, still fails (i.e. exact same results, 1st time fails, 2nd time seems OK but file not visible). Checked OS file system settings and hidden files and system files are set to allow viewing. I am at a loss! No idea what to do but use a different browser. Help please!

    Hi froggiedawg,
    I'd like to reproduce your problem on my machine. Would you please give me some more info?
    1) OS: Windows 7 64bit OS
    2) IE: IE10. - What's the exact version of IE10? You can check it under IE Help > About Internet Explorer. Mine says 10.0.9200.16686
    3) Protected Mode - IE > Internet Options > Security > Security level for this zone > Enable Protected Mode. Is this checked ON or OFF?
    4) Enhanced Protected Mode - IE > Internet Options > Advanced > Security > Enable Enhanced Protected Mode. Is this checked ON or OFF?
    5) Do you have Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader?
    6) Adobe Acrobat/Reader - what version of Adobe Acrobat/Reader do you have?
    7) Did opening a PDF in the browser (IE) work for you before? When did you start experiencing the problem?
    8) Have you tried uninstalling and installing Adobe Acrobat/Reader?
    9) Have you tried using Cleaner Tool (http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html) after uninstalling Adobe Acrobat/Reader?
    Thank you for your help!

  • Can I download large movie files to iphoto?

    Hi all you great experts out there .  I am having trouble downloading 12GB of video which I took on my Canon EOS7D. I am using an IOGEAR card reader connected to my Mac OS X (version 10.6.8) computer with a 2GHz Intel Core Duo processor, running Snow Leopard. I am currently using iphoto and imovie '09. The card seems to register with my computer as the icon appears on my desktop and also in iphoto under "Devices".   Iphoto is open and I currently see "Loading photos" on my screen with the twirling sun dial.
    Does it just take a long time to download 1+ hours of video?
    OR
    Is there another step that I need to add?
    OR
    Perhaps do I need to purchase the '11 version of iphoto/imovie? 
    I eventually want to edit the video in iMovie.  I read in a couple of the threads that I may need to use the apple application "image capture" to copy the movie to desktop and then import.  I have not tried that yet, I am hoping the "sun dial" will stop spinning soon or that you all will have a magical response for me!  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks so much from this Techie wanna be  

    iPhoto is known to choke on movie files over a certain size.  To get the larger videos either use Image Capture or a card reader to upload the file to the Desktop first and then into iPhoto.

  • How can I copy part of a larger PDF file and create a smaller one?

    How can I copy part of a larger PDF file and create a smaller one?

    Hi,
    Copy the content of PDF file in Adobe Reader and paset it to MS Word then create PDF file from the Word file.
    This may not work for all PDF files as some PDF files are not created correctly or some content cannot be copied.
    Acrobat XI Pro has features to extract/delete/crop pages in PDF files and you can download it from www.adobe.com(Trial version- 30 days free). Or you can upgrade your subscription to Acrobat Plus and see more information at https://www.acrobat.com/acrobatplus/en/home.html

    Haakwine you have posted to the Downloading, Installing, Setting Up forum.  Which specific Adobe software or service are you trying to use to convert PDF files?

  • How can I prevent a PDF file from being copied, printed or downloaded? Students should only be able to view the text and and not distribute it in any way.

    How can I prevent a PDF file from being copied, printed or downloaded? Students should only be able to view the text and and not distribute it in any way.

    You can prevent it from being printed by applying a security policy to it
    in Acrobat. The rest can't be prevented, unless you spend  a LOT of money
    on DRM protection.

  • Just upgraded to Lion, can't open any pdf file downloaded from internet that was fine with Leopard. How can I overcome this obstacle ?

    Just upgraded to Lion, can't open any pdf file downloaded from the internet that was fine with Leopard before. I just got a black screen when I clicked on a pdf icon on a given internet site, and same happened with several sites that I visited. How can I overcome this obstacle ?

    Try two things with Safari not running:
    1) Launch Adobe Reader, open its preferences, select the Internet category, and check the values under "Display PDF in browser using".  If it's checked, try unchecking it.
    2) Look in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins (at the top-level of your boot volume) for something names AdobePDFViewer.plugin.  If you see such a file, try moving it to a folder named "Disabled Plug-Ins" (if such a folder exists) or onto the Desktop.
    Then see how things work.

  • How can I send a large pdf file (42MB) attachments by icloud ??

    How can I send a large pdf file (42MB) attachment by email in Icloud ???

    That's a bit excessive.  The website http://convert.neevia.com/pdfcompress/ can compress files up to 5 MB in size. You may want to print to PDF single smaller pages, or print the document and scan it one page at a time to PDF, and then use the PDF compress tools to shrink it further.

  • I want to save large pdf files from my computer to my iPad so I can view them in Adobe Reader.

    I want to save large pdf files from my computer to my iPad so I can view them in Adobe Reader. I do not want to view them in iBooks or Quickoffice. Since I cannot email these large files, how can I get them on my iPad? Thanks for your help.

    I think that Adobe reader supports file sharing.
    Connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Select the iPad on the left side under "devices". Click on the Apps Tab in the window on the right. Scroll down to the File Sharing Apps list under the main apps list. Click on Adobe Reader. Drag the documents into the file sharing window on the right or select them using the "add" button.
    Launch the Adobe reader app and the files should be in there.

  • Why can't I download a pdf file using internet explorer as my browser.I can download pdfs using fire

    Why can't I download a pdf file using internet explorer as my browser. I can download pdfs using firefox.

    Gilad D,
    Thanks for the support.
    I would guess the plugin is enabled since when I use Foxfire as my browser, all pdfs download and are readable. (just doesn’t happen when I use IE as my browser, I get a blank screen with a small “x” in the upper left corner)
    I will try your proposed solution.
