How can I share an ibook that is 250 megs with others without using the ibook store

Hello
I'm using ibook author and the book I have created is 250 megs. I'm having trouble sharing it and getting on my new ibook air. Does anyone know if there is a good way to share the file with others without publishing it or using iTunes?
I'd ideally like to use something like Dropbox or my website but every time I try to download the file using one of these sites safari/apple says file not readable.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you!

Thank you both for the help and sorry about not replying earlier. I've tried both drop box as well making the ibook downloadable from a website. I've triend to create a step by step list below that better illustrates what is happening.
1) export ibook author file as an xxxxxx.ibooks
2) upload xxxxx.ibooks to dropbox and then send my self a test link
3) using safari i download the xxxxx.ibooks file
4) while still in safari a page opens up with an icon for the xxxx.ibooks file and it has two buttons underneath it- one that says "open with..." and another that says "open in ibooks"
THIS IS WHERE THE IBOOK PROBLEM STARTS
5) I tap on the "open in ibooks" button - nothing happens
6) I tap on the "open with..." button and an icon for the ibook app pops up
7) I tap on the ibook app icon and nothing happens
8) I tap and hold the "open in ibooks" button for 2 plus minutes (the time for holding the button down fluctuates from 45 seconds to 5 minutes)
9) the xxxxxx.Ibooks file opens in the ibook app.
I am very happy that I was able to get the xxxxx.ibooks file to open on my ipad. However, this is not a smooth or intuitive process. I need to share the xxxxxx.ibooks file with many people and I want to find a process for getting them the book that is very easy.
any advice is appreciated
Do you think the problem could be the size of the file?
Thank you

Elements 11 vs 13: how can I add a new place tag to my PSE13 database without using the wretched and totally inadequate map technology that Elements 13 wants to impose.

HI,
I have recently installed Elements 13 having used Elements 11.0 successfully to build a database of 30,000 plus images indexed by place, people, and photo date. Elements 11 allowed me to add new places which are meaningful to me but which are a complete mystery to the mapping technology of Elements 13. For example some years ago I lived in London in a road called Argyle Road. In elements 11 I could enter the place tag as Argyle Road. In Elements 13 I am required to locate Argyle Road on the map, but the map presupposes that the Argyle Road I am referring to is in Ealing in West London. It is not!
I now live in a place called Broadsands but the Elements 13 Map places this 0.5 miles away from what I would describe as Broadsands.
So the question: how can I add a new place tag to my database without using the wretched and totally inadequate map technology that Elements 13 wants to impose.

Thank you for your quick response, BalusC. I really appreciate your answer.
Yes, you are right. If I manually code the same amount of those components in the JSF pages instead of generating them dynamically, the server will still run out of memory. That is to say, JSF pages might not accommodate a great deal of concurrent visiting. If I upgrade the server to just allow 1,000 teachers making their own test papers at the same time, but when over 2,000 students take the same questionnaire simultaneously, the server will need another upgrading. So I have to do what you have told me, using JS+DOM instead of upgrading the server endlessly.

How can I publish an App to a selceted group of people without using the Adobe Contetn Viewer?

How can I publish an App to a selected group of people ( not via App Store) without using the Adobe Content Viewer?
The App was developed with InDesign 6.0

You'd have to sign up for an Apple Developer account and then gather all the UDID's (Apple limits this to only 100 devices) that you want your app to be installed on. Create your mobile provisioning profiles to include these ID's and then you could use TestFlight to push out your app and monitor who has installed it. Of course Testflight is intended for monitoring your apps performance but I'm sure you can get away with it if you use it to push you app. One thing to keep in mind is the mobile provisoning profiles are only valid for 1 year. Hope this helps.

How can I repair a screen that pixelates and goes white randomly without replacing the whole LCD ?

I bought a unibody Macbook Pro 13,3" in 2009 (refurbished), so it is out of guarantee.
Since about two weeks, my screen randomly freezes on image, pixelates
and goes white. Like this. To correct the problem, I have to adjust the angle
of my screen, or press on the corner of the cover and it returns to normal.
But not for long.
I removed the bottom cover to remove all the dust in the hardware, the fan, the circuits
and what is related with the screen system. I verified the cables, the inverter, it was
in a really good condition. Note that I never dropped it or spilled liquid on or near my
laptop, I am a real maniac.
I talked to an Apple Genius here in Montreal, I explained it was not software
or graphics-related since I tried my computer on an external screen (which
worked fine even when the screen freezed). The only solution they found in
the Apple Store was to replace the entire LCD, at full price.
I then visited my local repair shop and the man did the same thing as me,
watching the components, connections, circuitry and when the problem
happened, he was puzzled.
I'm aware this problem is more and more often among Macbook users, and
I didn't find any solution elsewhere on Internet, so please, if anybody finds
out the origin of the problem, answer this thread and you'll help us all !
Thank you.

I would think that the Apple store Genius' diagnosis is correct. What you might consider is purchasing the display and installing it your self and thereby saving some money for a Molson or two. There are places on the web where you can find detailed instructions such as iFixit. If that is out of your realm, then bite the bullet and have the Genius do it for you (then you do get a 90 day warranty).
Ciao.

How can I mkae a simple photo edit on premiere elements 12 without using the video feature?

I was told when I spent $1000+ on my HP and all the software that I would have what I needed to edit photos and/or edit videos. I am a yoga teacher so I am posting my classes online as videos, as podcasts, and I also need to edit some of my personal photos to use for marketing material. I can see where I edit photos for a video and incorporate them in that said video but Im also needing to just edit the photos but adding text. Nothing fancy. I just want to make some flyers.

yogawithlexi,
Welcome to the forum.
Im also needing to just edit the photos but adding text. Nothing fancy. I just want to make some flyers.
For editing photos, to be output to the printed page (whether by a commercial printing service, or a desktop printer), I strongly recommend Photoshop Elements (PsE).
If you need to output to a video file, then Premiere Elements (PrE) can possibly do what you want, but not for the printed page - at least not easily, and with the ultimate results. First, Video is not dependent on DPI/LPI (Dots Per Inch, or Lines Per Inch), where printed material will be. Also, while PrE can output a Still Image, the quality, when printed, will be far less, than what one can obtain with PsE.
Do you currently have Photoshop Elements on your computer, or only Premiere Elements?
Good luck,
Hunt

How can I share just two weeks of my icalender with friends

How can I share just two weeks of my icalendar with friends?

To view your library on another computer on the same network, you could use "Sharing". Set the iPhoto Preferences to share your entire library or selected albums:
Also, if possible, can I edit and/or download photos to one computer's iPhoto and have them updated (sync) with the other computer?
iPhoto Libraries cannot be synched between computers. If you want to have the libraries on both computers identical, you need to use the same library on both machines. Store your iPhoto library on an external disk (formatted MacOS X Extended (Journaled) and plug the disk into the mac you are currently working with. Don't put the library onto a network drive - that will be a very sow access and may corrupt your photo library.
To add new photos/events to iPhoto your other mac you can use the Photo Stream.
Finally, how do all of these photos with edits, etc relate to what I see on my iPad 3rd generation and iPhone 5?
You can only sync one iPhoto library with each OS device. If you sync a device alternately with each computer using iTunes Photo sync, the albums synced from the other photo library will be replaced by the new sync.

How can i share purchases I made on my itouch with my other touch?

How can I share purchases I made on my itpuch with my other itouch?

Just sync them to the other iPod. The iPod has to be signed into the iTunes account that purchased them. You can also redownload them. See:
If in USA:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If not in USA, just make sure you are signed into the iTunes account that originally purchased them and repurchase them.

How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process?

How can I move my iPhoto Library from one Mac to another without losing the comments on the individual photos in the process? The source Macbook (OS 10.4.11 and iPhoto 6.0.6 (3.2.2.)) is with my husband in Germany, the target MacBook Pro (OS 10.8.5, iPhoto 11) is with me in Japan. Thanks for your help.

I copied the iPhoto Library to a CD and from there to the new MacBook
If you copied the library to the CD via the Finder it would be no different than the methods Terence suggested. If you used the Share ➙ Burn menu option from inside iDVD you'll get a mini library that has to be accessed from the open library and the events/alubums copied into the destination library. Not the same as the other methods.
The Share ➙ Burn method is no longer supported with iPhoto 9 and later.

How do i share my movie i have on imoivie with other divices? or how to i put in on the smartboard

how do i share my movie i have on imovie with other divices? or how to i put it on the smartboard at school??

- You can AirPlay it on an Apple TV or other device that supports AirPlay
- You can connect an adopter and connect the iPod to a TV
- You can import the move to your computer and then do what you want to do with it.
- If your school's SmartBoard supports uploading from an iOS device (iPod touch, iPhone or iPad) you can directly upload to the board. Otherwise you will have to transfer to computer to upload to the board.
- Transfer the the movie to DropBox or similar cloud serve and then distribute how you wish.

How can I create accurate decimal dimensions when creating a new document or using the art board in Illustrator CS6? When I type in a number with a decimal, it automatically rounds the number up.

How can I create accurate decimal dimensions when creating a new document or using the art board in Illustrator CS6? When I type in a number with a decimal, it automatically rounds the number up.

For my part you are welcome, sdowers.
Unfortunately, the uncertainty arising from the rounding has been up several times here in this forum.
I just came to remember a warning that needs to be given:
The rounding of the representation of a numerical value may be harmless in itself, but if you use it for any operation that changes the value, such as multiplication or whatever, things will go wrong because the operation will be made on the basis of the rounded value instead of the true value. So, as in your first case in post #2, 39.625 rounded to 39.63 will become 79.26 instead of 79.25.

Well CS5's ship has sailed.
CS6 can still be purchased on Perpetual License but it's not going to have all the bells & whistles that the current versions have. Just as long as you understand what you're getting.

You can set up multiple accounts in Game Centre, sign out and create new account. You just need a different email address from any existing Apple ID's and a new password. You can still use the old account for purchases.
