Hello Apple community... I am trying to combine multiple pdf's into one, using preview, but when I drag the additional pages they show up as separate documents.

I am trying to combine multiple pdf's into one, using preview, but when I drag the additional pages they show up as separate documents. When I drag the doc in a line would show up in the past, and if I went above th eline all was good. It doesn't have a line, and no matter what I try I am having no success.
Please help!

According to an Apple Support article, unless there are unforeseen issues
in file ownership or permissions, the combining of .PDFs should be simple.

There are a few variable and similar methods, some change with version

Is it possible to combine multiple pdf's into one without saving them onto your computer?

Hello
I open pdf's in an application (no add ons for acrobat exist), and want to combine them without having to use time on saving them before merging them into one single document.
Is it possible to do this without having the files saved onto your computer? I use acrobat x pro.

I dont think you understand my question. Of course Adobe reader cant combine pdf's, if it could I would not have had to purchase Adobe acrobat.
The problem I am trying to solve is how to combine pdf files when they are not opened/saved locally on my computer.
If I make Acrobat the standard program for opening pdf files on my computer - then will it be possible to combine the files that are opened without saving them first?
I dont have the program installed on my computer now, and have to know this before we purchase it.

Trying to combine multi PDF docs into one, but losing a barcode overlay at the bottom of the page.

Hello,
I'm attempting to put approximately 100 PDF documents (various page lengths) together to create one, however when I use the typical method, File>Create PDF>Multiple Files then combine them I lose the barcode at the bottom of the page. I believe the barcode is seen by Adobe as an overlay, but I could be mistaken. I'm not sure if there is some options I could be changing to make this work. My other alternative is to use the insert...but this would be very time consuming. I'm looking to have more of these in the future so any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

Hi,
Trying to check this issue. Please let us know the version of Acrobat that this Combine behavior is seen in.
thanks

How do i combine multiple pdf file into a single pdf file?

how do i combine multiple pdf files into a single pdf file?

The thread was started in early March and it's Mid-April, I know this very well. The OP of this thread posted a very common and simple question or maybe he/she would have resolved this. For an Adobe Acrobat user it's not at all difficult to combine multiple PDF files into one. But to combine PDF files full version of Adobe Acrobat is mainly required, otherwise PDF files can't be combined. For example, I'm using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. These simple steps are mainly required to combine PDF files:
Open Adobe Acrobat.
Click on Combine and click on Merge files into a single PDF.
A window will be appearing, click on Add Files and select the PDF files you want to combine.
Arrange the selected files in any order with the help of Move Up and Move Down button.
Now click on Combine File and the selected PDF files will be combined within a few seconds.
A new PDF file will be created. Click on Save As and name this new PDF file. Then, click on Save.
A new PDF file will be created and all the selected PDF files are combined in it. The steps shown above might be different in other versions of Adobe Acrobat. Other than this, some third-party PDF merge software are also available. Most of them are available with a demo version for free evaluation. I've heard much about SysInfoTools PDF Merge software on other forums and directories and it's demo version is freely available. One may check its demo version if Adobe Acrobat (full version) is not available.

I was trying to make a new screen recording using quicktimeplay, but when I watched the video after recording it all I could hear was me talking while the video was showing on the screen. How do I turn off that recording and turn the right one on? thanks

Hi j2399123,
It sounds like your screen recording is doing what it was designed to do, capture what is happening on your screen, with optional voice over with the microphone.
Screen recording is for recording what you see on the screen, it is not a "video capture" option, like for capturing a movie with sound that is playing on your screen.
For the QuickTime recording options, check out "Recording with QuickTime Player" in
Mac Basics: QuickTime Player creates, plays, edits, and shares video and audio files
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4024
And for screen recording specifically, there's
QuickTime Player 10.x: Record your computer’s screen

Thank you for thinking of Apple Support Communities for your support needs.

I tried powering down and re-starting the iPhone (as suggested at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275). This seems to have cleared the "...not connected to the Internet" problem, and iOS 6.1 is now in the process of downloading.
Thanks very much for your feedback.

"Do I need to do this another way?"

Updating from the iphone itself is ONLY available with ios 5 and above..
You update as always by opening itunes and connect the iphone. If there is an update available it will prompt you to update.

Make sure that both the web browser you're using and its Flash plug-in are up to date. Google Chrome has its own Flash plug-in it updates on its own. Firefox, IE and other have separate plug-ins.
