How do I get a PDF viewer onto my PowerBook 2400c

I was wondering if anyone knew how to get a PDF reader onto my old powerbook which is running OS 8.1.
It can't connect to the internet, and doesn't have a CD-ROM drive, but it does have a floppy drive.
My desktop computer (a swivel iMac) also has a floppy drive and is running OX 10.3.9.
The problem is that Acrobat can't fit on a floppy, and I have no idea if there's anyway to seperate the Acrobat installer among several floppies and install it.
Thanks!!
(sorry if this is in the wrong place, I couldn't figure out if it was a software issue relevant to 8.1, or a hardware issue, or both.)

Hi, maxwellro -
If you have an older version of Stuffit Deluxe on your iMac which you can use, one of the included utilities that came with it is DropSegment. You can use that to segment a large file (such as the installer for Acrobat) into smaller pieces; you can specify the segment size in its Preferences (File menu). Once transferred to the PowerBook the segments can be rejoined.

How do I get my PDF files onto my ipad

I spoke to apple in February and they helped me put ove a hundred PDF files onto my ipad. When I open acrobat under the heading of documents is where all the files reside. I even made subfolders. Well, I forgot how to do it and called apple again today and they told me with the new ibook update, all pdf files get placed under ibooks. not only that, I cannot make subfolders. Their only suggestion was to get an account with acrobat and transfer them that way. I uploaded the files here, but now I cannot figure out how to get them onto my ipad. Any help would be appreciated.

You can either select GoodReader at the bottom of the iPad's apps tab when connected to you computer's iTunes - it should appear as one apps that support file sharing (there is info on file sharing in the manual which can be downloaded from here http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad). Or the app itself supports wifi transfer via you wifi network - just touch the wifi symbol (next to the camera) at the bottom of the app on your iPad, and you should be given an address to use on your computer's browser so as to transfer files to/from the app.

How can I get the pdf viewer to scroll correctly

Over the last few days I have got a new problem with the pdf viewer. When I scroll down to a new page, the old page stop scrolling, so that the new page covers the bottom of the old page. Thus, can't read from the end of one page to the start of the next.

Try the latest development version of the PDF Viewer (pdfjs) as a Firefox extension:

TS3988 My wife bought an iPad Air and synced contact from our PC (Outlook), now all our contacts in Outlook have gone and we have to go to iCloud to get them, and even then they are a bit jumbled. How do I get my data back onto my PC?

My wife bought an iPad Air and synced contact from our PC (Outlook), now all our contacts in Outlook have gone and we have to go to iCloud to get them, and even then they are a bit jumbled. How do I get my data back onto my PC?

If you can see the iCloud contacts in Outlook, you can copy them back to your PC by selecting all the contacts (click one, then press Control-A), then drag and drop the selected contacts to Contacts under My Contacts on the left sidebar of Outlook.
If you want to copy your calendar back to Outlook, select your iCloud calendar on the left sidebar of Outlook, switch to the list view (select View from the ribbon, then click Change View>List), select your events (click on a single event, then press Control-A), then control drag and drop them to Calendar under My Calendars on the left sidebar.
Then you can sign out of iCloud on the iCloud control panel and your local copies will still be there. If you want to add your iCloud email account back to iCloud, you can do this with these settings: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864.

Hello ashlyn888,
Based on your post it sounds like you would like to sync your iBooks content with your computer. I have located an article that may help you in this situation. While you can sync this data with your computer you can also use the sharing button to send PDFs using various sources:

How do I put a PDF form onto my website?

New to Acrobat. Just bought 8 Pro for Mac version. How do I embed a PDF form onto my website?
Also, if the process to do this is hard, would upgrading to version 9 make it any easier? Thanks.

It depends on how the user's system is set up. Normally, the PDF will open in the browser, not just downloaded.
It is possible to embed a PDF in an HTML page, for example: http://blogs.adobe.com/pdfdevjunkie/2007/08/using_the_html_embed_tag_to_di.html
But note that not all users will have a PDF viewer installed, and not all PDF viewers are produced by Adobe, so this will not work for everyone. The above link cause my Firefox browser to crash, but it works with my Internet Explorer browser.

How do I get contacts from iphone5 onto new pc?

How do I get contacts from iphone5 onto new pc? They do show up on my Ipad but not in icloud on my pc. Thank you.

If you are trying to do this with iCloud, make sure your Mac is running OS X Lion (10.7.2) or higher, then go to Settings>iCloud on your phone, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account, turn Contacts to On, then on your Mac go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign into your account and check Contacts.
If you only want to import a copy of your contacts from your Mac to your phone without using iCloud, do the following:
Open Contacts (Address Book) on your Mac, go to View>Groups.
Click on the All Contacts group, select any contact to the right, thengo to Edit>Select All (Command-A) to select them all.
Export to a vCard by going to File>Export>vCard, save this on your desktop.
Send an email to yourself with this file as an attachment.
Open the email on your iPhone and tap the attachment to import the contacts to your phone.

Hi
Please take a look to this thread Re: Can I refresh the browser rather than open a new tab?

How do I get the PDF Convert feature of Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9.4.4, which makes a PDF of a web page interactive, to work in Firefox 4.0.1?

I just installed (on my Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) operating system/Intel i5 CPU M560 2.67 GHz) and am now using as my default browser Firefox 4.0.1 because Internet Explorer 9 was giving me so much trouble--lack of display of web content, lack of PDF reproduction when web content displayed, screwball formatting display, etc., all of which has been remedied by the mere installation of Firefox 4.0.1.
How do I get the PDF Convert feature of Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9.4.4, which converts a web page to an interactive PDF, to set up and work on Firefox 4.0.1?

You can not do that using Adobe Acrobat 9. Adobe never made a create PDF add-on for Firefox for use with Adobe Acrobat 9. They created a Firefox add-on for use with Acrobat X, but currently that one does not work with Firefox 4 though Adobe are working on an update.

I have created separate user accounts for my 2 boys on my macbook. How do i get my itunes library onto their new ipods?

I have created separate user accounts for my 2 boys on my macbook. How do i get my itunes library onto their new ipods?

They can't. Which came first - the chicken or the egg? Actually, that's a bad comparison but a sync must come first.
The library is actually part of iTunes and it contains everything. iTunes is then configured so that you (or they) determine which portion of everything will be synced to each iPod (identified by a unique name, see below for an example of an iPod and an iPad). iTunes can't make that decision until AFTER it knows which iPods exist.
By the way, I (you, they) can very easily change the name of each device to whatever I (you, they) wish to call it.

How can I get the old view of iCal back on my MacBook Pro and iPhone?

How can I get the old view of iCal back on my MacBook Pro and iPhone? The Mavrick version is crisp and clean but a colored dot is not the same as a highlighted word. I rely on my iCal on my MacBook Pro and iPhone 5 to help me track which of the 8 sites I visit for my job during the week - the color coding is (was key) to organizing and tracking meetings. I hate the upgrade!

If purchased through the Mac App Store then it can be installed on up to five authorized CPUs. Otherwise, it's controlled by the license that came with the software.
To install on another computer copy the downloaded installer application to the other computer.

Generally the icons are a selection that is set in MS Explorer (on the PC). Depending on the version of windows, there are various ways of getting at the properties related to an icon, including what application would open the file.
