Drag file OUT of portfolio onto another program

By default a user is able to drag a file out of a pdf portfolio onto their desktop or a folder. I'm wondering if it's possible to grant permission to drag the file out of the portfolio into a specified document. Is this possible? Where/how could I modify this permission? Specifically, I have image files that I want to drag out of the portfolio and into another pdf document.

I posted this on another thread. See if this works:
1) Uncheck "Backup previous version" in Keynote's Preferences.
2) Make a duplicate copy of your file that has issues and save it.
3) If you still get spinning wheels from switching between apps after editing or 10 seconds of inactivity, manually save with command+s. It may beach ball here but be patient and wait for it to finish! Try editing and resume doing work now.
Command+s may be a bit slow but I think that might be normal since the files are so big.
Good luck and let me know if this works.

Dragging files out of portfolio

By default a user is able to drag a file out of a pdf portfolio onto their desktop or a folder. Permission to drag those items onto another document or program is restricted. I'm wondering if it's possible to grant permission to drag the file out of the portfolio into a specified document/program. Is this possible? Where/how could I modify this permission? Specifically, I have image files that I want to drag out of the portfolio and into another pdf document.

Hi,
I don't think you are going to have much luck with this task.
While you can drag out of a portfolio, it is generally just to Explorer. You can't drag a file into another PDF, using drag and drop. This functionality is not available within Acrobat.
In addition you will not be able to drag images from a portfolio or from Explorer into an image field in an XFA form.
Sorry,
Niall

Keynote Crashing - with Lion. Most often when I switch out of Keynote to another program - Keynote freezes - says Application Not Responding. If I save the Keynote before switching, it does not crash - only when it says it is an "edited" file....help

Dragging Files Out Of iTunes

Hey guys
I want to drag files out of my iTunes library, onto a flash drive so i can put it onto my PS3. Anyway, some of the albums i have drag like normal, and i can put them on, but some albums dont. When i drag the files, nothing happens. Even when i try and drag them to the desktop, still nothing. So i go right click, and show in windows explorer, but i get the error "c:/documents and settings.... etc." "Access Id Denied"
But i can access the file that is in my My Music folder, if you get me, but just can't drag it out of iTunes. Anyway know of a solution? I don't want to drag it out of my My Music folder, because the album artwork doesn't follow it, but if i drag it out of the iTunes library, album art follows it.
Cheers.

What kind are the files you are trying to copy from itunes?

How to check if a file is being read by another program?

Hey all,
I just have a few question for a project I am doing:
How do I check if a file is being read by another program?
How do I check how many lines it read?
How do I get Keyboard input from the user when he is using another program other than mine? Ex: Pressing Ctrl-G to take a screenshot.
How can I halt another program from reading a file when it already opened it? Ex: The other program opened a file and began reading. Now it is at line 2 and I want to make it skip 10 lines and contontinue.
Thanks,
Bluelikeu

How do I check if a file is being read by another
program?This is about the only partially sensible question you asked. But the answer is that unless you use some native code, you can't.
How do I check how many lines it read?It doesn't even make sense to ask this question. First of all, what's a "line" anyway? Files are just sequences of bytes. A "line" is only in the interpretation of those bytes, such as if it contains <cr><lf> sequences an application may choose to render the contents of those bytes as logical "lines" of string sequences. Second of all, why the heck would it matter to you how many bytes have already been read by some other process(es)?
How do I get Keyboard input from the user when he is
using another program other than mine? Ex: Pressing
Ctrl-G to take a screenshot.You want to spy on other applications? Shame on you, Mr. Spyware creator.

Can't drag files out of the dock folders/stacks

On Mavericks I'm able to drag files out of the folders/stacks I have on the Dock (Downloads, Documents, etc.) just as you would anywhere on OSX. But, for some reason my mom (Mavericks) and my fiancee (Mountain Lion) can't. I've tried checkin the permissions for those folders (in Get Info) and they have read/write permissions. This only happens in list view, not in fan, grid or automatic. Is there some hidden setting or something else that would allow them to be able to drag files?

For downloads, go to your user folder downloads and remove them there. Same for Applications. To remove alias from the Dock hold down the command key while dragging them from the Dock.
If that does't work, go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. Then try a Dock reset.
Try doing a Dock restart using the following Terminal command:
killall Dock
Log out/in and test. If that doesn’t work, you need to look in your user Library/Applications Support/Dock for the .db. Use the Finder “Go To Folder” command. Enter ~/Library/Applications Support/Dock. Move the .db to your desktop.
Then try a dock reset.
Applications/Utilities/Terminal enter the command
killall Dock
Log out/in test. If it works okay, delete the .db from the desktop.
If the Dock is the same, return the .db to where you got them from, overwriting the newer ones.

How to open-up a pdf file to a particular page via java? (file and page number from another program)

I have created an Access 2003 Form. Data is entered. The data can be viewed once entered in the same form format, with one addition. The addition is a link to another program where we store files. The files stored are pdf documents. Each document is a scanned file (500+ pages). The link can open-up the pdf file. I want the link to open-up the pdf file to a particular page. I will supply the page number from the database.
I am aware of Adobe Acrobat 7.0 PDF Open Parameters using a URL that specifies the file to be opened plus actions to be performed once the file is openend (i.e. http://example.org/doc.pdf#page=3). However, the 3rd party program transfers a file from a server to the client via java. The file does not go via a web browser. The java code transfer the file directly from the file server to the the client.
Any idea how to accomplish the task of viewing a particular page with the process flow described?
I am using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional.

So you are reading this file in a standalone version of Acrobat? If so then use the PDF Open Parameters /a option via the command line.
Sabian
Example:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Acrobat>Acrobat.exe /A "zoom=1000=OpenActions" "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Acrobat\SimpleSubmit.pdf"
Where:
Path to Acrobat: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Acrobat>Acrobat.exe
Note: The example starts in the Acrobat application directory
Switch: /A
Parameter Syntax: "zoom=1000=OpenActions"
Path to file: "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Acrobat\SimpleSubmit.pdf"
Note: The quotes are very important for the syntax to work appropriately.

How to Rename a Topic ID in Map File to Avoid Conflict with Another Program?

Robo 8 HTML:
Can somebody assist me in understanding how to rename a topic ID in my map.h file?
An application programmer informs me there are nine topic IDs (shown below) in my project map file which conflict with predefined names of constants/functions from the Visual Studio Libs program and, is requesting I change the names of the topics listed below to resolve topic ID conflict in order to enable F1 call for these topics.
#define Open    59
#define Save    60
#define Print   63
#define Cut     72
#define Copy    73
#define Paste   74
#define Clear   75
#define Status 81
#define Substructure 139
Can I simply alter the topic names and retain their associated map numbers in <Create/Edit Map ID> dialog to resolve the map file conflict with Visual Studio Libs program functions? Or, is there more work involved in changing a topic name in a map.h file?
Any assistance with this question is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
robert

Hi,
Simply renaming the TopicID's in the .h file won't work. The TopicID is used in the alias file (projectname.ali) to link a map number with a topic. Also, you can use either TopicID's or map numbers to call the help. (Using TopicID's only works for WebHelp afaik.)
If you use map numbers to call the help, you can rename the TopicID using the mentioned dialog. No problem.
If you want to change the ID from the files, you have to change both the .h file as the .ali file. No changes to topics needed.

Can i drag files from one computer to another

can i drag files from one computer to another

You can, if you want to transfer files between macs I advies to use AirDrop(wi-fi needs to be enabled). Use shift+command+R, this will take you to your AirDrop in finder. Do this on both computers and you should see the user of the mac where you want to transfer files to.
If the seconds computer is a Windows, you can alway use a USB Drive, External Drive, through Dropbox(install dropbox on both computers and download the files that you need on the second computer) and if the file is small even mail.

Jeroen

Why can't I drag files out of folder stacks in Yosemite

After upgrade to Yosemite, I can't drag files or folders from stacks in the dock to anywhere, I need to open the folder in the finder to do this. anybody havin

For me, it kind of fixed itself. Unfortunately I cannot say for sure what I did that triggered the fix, because I just noticed the other day that I was able to drag and drop again (what a relief). I can't say for sure that this is related, but the one thing that I did immediately before noticing that it was no longer broken that seemed like it could have had some effect was installing a new, Yosemite compatible version of Asepsis (http://asepsis.binaryage.com). Maybe the problem was the old version of Asepsis hanging around from Mavericks, or maybe doing the Aspesis install somehow fixed it indirectly, or maybe it was just a coincidence and that had nothing to do with it. But that's all I could think of that I did that might have had an effect on the Finder.

Why can't I drag files out of Photoshop CC to another program?

Hello, I have a smart object in Photoshop that I want to drag into InDesign, however when I drag the file onto InDesign's icon in the dock it does nothing. This has worked for me in the past. It won't drag into Illustrator either.
Has anyone else experienced this and resolved it?

The reason is Photoshop is a document editor. It does not work on files it can only save documents into some image file formats. So there is no file that you can drag out of Photoshop. It does support copy and paste and you can copy layer from to the system clipboard or a copy merge to the clipboard and paste into an othe application. I do not have other Adobe applications so I do not know what data exchange Adobe does support between its application.

Dragging files out of iPhoto

I was uploading photos to fotki out of iPhoto and I noticed that even though I dragged the modified photos out of iPhoto only the original file got uploaded. Is there any way of dragging the photo out of iPhoto, but still retain the modifications made to the picture? I don't want to have to go into the modified folder since this would take forever for batch uploads. It's much easier to drag the pictures right off of iPhoto.
Thanks

Exit:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Are you dragging to the desktop first? That has always given me the edited version. If it's not for you, rebuild the library as follows and try again: launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options.
Happy Holidays
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Cannot disconnect IPOD b/c files are in use by another program???

All other programs have been closed, but I cannot eject my IPOD. I have no clue what to do. This is the first time I've seen the message. I've only dl one song prior to the message and I deleted it to see if this would resolve the issue...to no avail. Please help

Easy way. Reset the iPod, then disconnect when you see the Apple logo.
Another way. Hold ctr-alt-del to bring up the Windows Task Manager. Go to the Processes tab and look for iTunesHelper.exe and iPodService.exe. Select them and hit the End Process button. Close the Windows Task Manager Window and try ejecting the iPod via the safely remove hardware method.
  If you are still having problems you can try one more thing. Right click on the My Computer icon and select Manage from the list of actions. Go to the Services and Applications item and from there the services item. Double click on the services item to bring up the list of services currently installed on your computer. Look for the iPod Service and double click on it. From the new window select Stop. Now try again to eject using the safely remove hardware option.
  If all else fails shut down the computer and disconnect the iPod.

Check the file format of your drive.
