Edit document that was converted from PDF to Word Doc.

How do I edit a document that I converted from a PDF to a word document????? When I open my now "Word Document" it does not allow me to edit the text.

Bill, The PDF came from a scanning of a Word document, but my office did not produce the PDF and I don't know exactly how the original Word document was scanned, whether OCR was engaged at that stage, etc., but the select tool in Adobe Reader leads to the cross-hairs on the PDF. We are working without AA, and I was trying to convert the PDF back to an editable Word document through ExportPDF, with which I thought I had had some success in the past in similar circumstances (converting an image PDF back to an editable Word document). With this document, the conversion back to Word through ExportPDF has led to an uneditable Word document with text in image frames whether OCR is on or off in the PDF to Word conversion effort... and if there is a way to remove the frames in Word, but keep the text, I haven't "re"figured it out yet. For instance, triple clicking doesn't seem to do anything.
On this particular document, we've gone back to the old fashioned way of retyping the page that has the error in it ... and sticking it back in the document. (It also would have been smarter timewise for me in this case to have spent more time on tracking down the preceding Word document.)
Was I missing something in the conversion process from scanned image PDF to Word document with edit capabilities? Thanks!

Problems with a MS Word doc that was converted from Apple Pages

Hello. I am writing a book and after completing most of the text in Apple Pages, I had to convert to MS Word to use the sidebar feature. The MS Word document that I am working with has some very strange attributes. Where quotation marks were used in Pages, the Word document substitutes material from a nearby page. Where sections are underlined, it again mixes some of the original material wtih material from elsewhere in the book. I have attempted to fix these issues by retyping the incorrect text, but when the document is saved, the next time I open it, more horrors lurk in the same places.
Has anyone experienced this? Any suggestions?
Thanks

I have done this, repeatedly, using OSX 10.7.6 & 10.9.2, Pages 4.3, and Word 14.1.0. I did not experience the hassles you report, but then, perhaps my docs were simpler than yours. But I did retain list features & outline structures from Pages to Word, and Word to Pages. In-line graphics remained as such and as I recall, underlines, italics, and section lines remained intact as well. Transferring both ways.
If you were doing your transfers using Pages 5.2, I recommend that you delete 5.2, revert to 4.3 if you possibly can (get an old .dmg copy from deep backup, a friend, whatever it takes)
I loved Pages 4.3. I have removed Pages 5.2 from my system, best I can.

How to remove the old email address that was hacked from my iCloud account when iCloud won't let me?

How to remove the old email address that was hacked from my iCloud account when iCloud won't let me?
Pretty much the the email that I used (but didn't verify) to create my iCloud account was hacked and now I can't remove it from my iCloud account due to the iCloud password also being changed by the same person and the fact I had "Find my iPhone" app on my phone also??? I had to change my iTunes email as well but that was far easier so yeah :S.
Please help. I live in NZ, out in the country, so reception is rare and so is getting into the nearest town that has an Apple Store.
Thanks

If you truly change your existing Apple ID's email address to a new email address, follow these instructions: iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
If you created a whole new Apple Account because you couldn't access the old one after being hacked, you will need to contact the Apple Account Security Team. Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security

How can I erase a photo album that was uploaded from an old computer that I don't have no more? I have other albums in the Iphone that I don't want to delete.

How can I erase a photo album that was uploaded from an old computer that I don't have no more? I have other albums in the Iphone that I don't want to delete.

If you sync with the new computer it will erase the current content from the iphone and replace with the selected content of the new computer.
The pics that you have taken with the iphone should be imported regularly to your computer as you would with any digital camera. You can then organize them and sync them back to the iphone if you wish.
If you have had itunes perform a backup on the new computer, you should get the pics taken with the iphone back, but I would import them before trying anything.

How can I retrieve my calendar info that was sucked from my iPad 2 after upgrading to OS V and backing up to iCloud (using Windows XP computer with Outlook)?

How can I retrieve my calendar info that was sucked from my iPad 2 after upgrading to OS V and backing up to iCloud (using Windows XP computer with Outlook)?

I think (and I'll double check) only the BBLink events will sync on a wired USB sync. I'm fairly certain of that.
You'll need to use your calendar syncing via an EAS email account (outlook.com, for instance, is free) to sync wirelessly. It works great. I use it and was a former tied to the USB sync guy as well... and I thought I was gonna die a painful death without it. I found more freedom this way.
This explains the process. But I don't think you'll get BBM Groups to sync.

How can I edit a saved document that is within a file folder?

How can I edit a saved document ?

With just the free Reader? No way. It can be done with Acrobat.

Is there a way to recover a word document that was auto saved before a power outage?

I was working on a document that was previously saved, went to the save the darn thing, and of course the power zapped out. It was in word 2010? and even when searching for "AutoRecovery" files it is not there. just the original document opens, not the modified one. Please if anyone knows how to find a recovered one, or if it is even possible can you let me know.
Thanks!

I was assuming you meant 2011 and not 2010 since 2010 is a Windows version and not Mac
First a disclaimer, right now I am on a PC and not my Mac so there may not be a one-to-one matchup.
Clicking on the main Word drop down, this may be under Preferences, I have a Word Options button. From there do you have Allow Background Saves checked? Also, the button File Locations; find AutoRecover Files and see where those are located. Then using Finder, go to that location and see if you can find a file with a date/time stamp for the time of the power outage. If there is a file, open and see if that is what you need.
If there are no files, or cannot find the recovery file location, there may not be much option than to try and redo all the work up to the power outage. Word is supposed to auto save, and take you to the last saved form of files before an exit that is not according to the rules...it is supposed to do that, or so it claims.

How can I burn a Word document that will be used on a PC?

Hello,
I have to burn a Word document onto a disk for a friend who is using either PC or a Mac. It will eventually go to a publisher. I haven't burned a .doc in ages and can't remember how to do it. Do I want to use a CD-R and not a DVD-R? Also can I use Toast and choose the PC option or should I use Disk Utility? If disk utility how do I do it? I just want to make sure it will work on a PC if that is what will be used to extract it?

IT's a non-issue, assuming you have recent versions of OSx and MS Office. Just use the Finder to burn the disc. PC Word reads Mac Word just fine, with some rare exceptions.
-insert blank CD-R, because they are the cheapest, unless your Word doc is more than 700MB.
-drag .doc document into the mounted, untitled CD-R icon.
-using any of several methods (which can vary a bit depending on your OS), use the Finder to burn the CD-R. One way is to click once on the CDR icon, then go to the FInder/File menu and select Burn CD. In OSX.5.x, there are Burn commands in the window for the CDR (i.e. double click on the CDR icon for the root window).
A window should open, asking if you want to burn this disc so that any computer (Mac or PC) can read it.
edit: your Toast method you did while I was typing sounds like it should work, too.

How do I open a word document that has been downloaded onto Firefox downloads?

Mail the Word document, and when you click the attachment in IOS 8 Mail, the Word document will open in Pages v2.4.2 (required for IOS 8). If password protected, you will receive a password challenge when you attempt to open the document.

Why is the right hand side of the tables on a Word document that was imported being cut off using Webhelp but not when using Webhelp Pro?

I would prefer to use Webhelp and not Webhelp Pro because Webhelp allow for the insertion of a logo located to the right of the search field by selecting the "Show About" check box when generating content. The problem is that Webhelp is cutting off the words in the tables. Wordwrap is turned on in the Word document and the rest of the sentence will continue beneath the "cut off" word.

You would only use WebHelp Pro if you were using RH Server – that’s what the “pro” versions of output are for. I would suggest that something’s wrong with your table definition. You talk about a Word document – is this the source or the output you’re talking about?

How do I delete a recurring event that was sent from an outside source?

I have a number of recurring events that were added to the calendar from an outside calendar. A calendar that I do not have access to anymore. I wish to delete the entire series. Currently when I open the event I can not edit nor delete it. If I choose cut I am forced to cut each individual occurance of the event. Is there some way to delete the series?

you can try full re-sync of the calendar:
First you need to find out which account the offending calendar belongs to (you can find it in the event details)
then go to settings/main,contacts,etc...
Tap on the proper account
Then disable the calendar linked with this account (confirm deleting it from the iPhone)
Finaly re-enable the calendar and let it sync.
