How do I open a PDF attachment using the Open In function from iPad mail

I Am trying to open a PDF document from my mail. In previous versions of the iOS (presently I am on 7.1.1) the open in feature of the email re organised that you had an rhe adobe reader installed and allowed you to select this to open the document. Thiis no longer working for me.

The functionality certainly has not gone away with iOS 7. What do you see when you attempt this (and how do you go about it)?
Only thing I can recommend off hand is to try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

When I open a pdf, it used to open in Preview. Now my iMac requires Adobe Reader, but I prefer Preview. How can I make my iMac open pdf in Preview again?

When I open a pdf, it used to open in Preview. Now my iMac requires Adobe Reader, but I prefer Preview. How can I make my iMac open pdf in Preview again?

If an image opens in a different application but you want it to always open in Preview when you double-click it, do this one time: Control-click the file, let go of the Control key, press the Option key, then choose Always Open With > Preview. Or, select the image file, choose Get Info from the File menu, then change the "Opens with:" pop-up menu choice to Preview.

How can I send a .pdf attachement using maildemo_sql.txt

Hi
I have created a PL/SQL package using the following link.
Could you plese tell me how can I send a .pdf as an attachement using the follwing package?
http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/pl_sql/htdocs/maildemo_sql.txt
regards

When using the "MailDemo" package, in order to send email attachements, the document you attach MUST reside on the Database Server or UTL_SMTP or UTL_MAIL Oracle packages won't be able to find the file. I recommend you define a location (directory) on the database server file system where all email attachements must be stored and reference this location using an Oracle Directory object. You will need to modify the BEGIN_ATTACHMENT procedure to add the file location referenced by the Oracle Directory object to the filename parameter. For example:
/* Create the Oracle DIRECTORY */
CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY FILE_ATTACHMENTS as '/temp/attachments/';
/* Modification to MAILDEMO */
PROCEDURE begin_attachment(conn         IN OUT NOCOPY utl_smtp.connection,
                    mime_type    IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'text/plain',
                    inline       IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT TRUE,
                    filename     IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
                    transfer_enc IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL) IS
BEGIN
    write_boundary(conn);
    write_mime_header(conn, 'Content-Type', mime_type);
    IF (filename IS NOT NULL) THEN
       IF (inline) THEN
       write_mime_header(conn, 'Content-Disposition',
         /* 'inline; filename="'||BFILENAME('filename||'"'); */ /* Line BEFORE */
           'inline; filename="'||BFILENAME('FILE_ATTACHMENTS',filename)||'"'); /* Line AFTER */
       ELSE
       write_mime_header(conn, 'Content-Disposition',
         /* 'attachment; filename="'||filename||'"'); */ /* Line BEFORE */
           'attachment; filename="'||BFILENAME('FILE_ATTACHMENTS',filename)||'"'); /* Line AFTER */
       END IF;
    END IF;
    IF (transfer_enc IS NOT NULL) THEN
      write_mime_header(conn, 'Content-Transfer-Encoding', transfer_enc);
    END IF;
    utl_smtp.write_data(conn, utl_tcp.CRLF);
END;If you have to send the file attachment from the User's workstation, then I suggest you either add the ability to FTP a file from a users workstation to the Database Server; use a javabean to send email directly from the client workstation or use WebUtil to open an Outlook message and attach the file using Outlook. I personally prefer using the database package to send email because you have a central point that all processes use and that makes the process easier to maintain. If you opt to try the Java Bean or WebUtil options, here are some great links that work really well also.
Java Option:
Send email with html body and local file attachments
WebUtil Option:
Sending Email via Outlook via forms
Re: Sending email from Oracle Forms with attachments
I cannot confirm the WebUtil options work as I have not tested these myself, however, I have tested the Java option and it works fine.
Hope this helps,

How do I restore my new iphone using the icloud data stored from another phone?

Yesterday my iPhone stopped working so I took it to the Apple store who replaced it with another one. I used iCloud when setting up this new one but this only restored my numbers to the new phone. I plugged the phone into my computer when I got home and again tried to restore my phone to the setup from yesterday. This changed the phone to the setup from over a year ago. I know my old phone backed up more recently than this because under iCloud 'Manage Storage' it shows that my old phone backed up yesterday. Any ideas how I can access this?

On your replacement phone: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings...you should now be able to use the backup from your old phone.

How 2 search inside a PDF document using the firefox internal PDF reader

Cannot find any way to do a text search inside a PDF document when it is displayed by the builtin PDF player in Firefox.
If there is a way, how is it done?
If there isn't a way, it seems an obvious enhancement.

son of a gun. I've always searched in firefox by hitting slash and typing the search term, but that doesn't seem to work in the pdf reader. I guess, if I had searched for key bindings I coulda figured that out for myself.
thanks!

How do i turn off the auto bcc function on ipad mail? i have turned it off in settings but it keeps happening.

I want to turn off the auto bcc function in ipad mail. I have done it in settings but it keeps happening. surely this is a fault or there is an easy way to fix the problem.

I've got options for 2, 5, 10, 15 minutes and Never. Have you got an Exchange email account on your iPad ? 'Never' can be removed so as to protect a company's potentially sensitive email - they may not want the iPad being left/stolen with the emails on it accessible. If you remove the account the Never option will probably reappear

"when I try save to PDF it just wants to save it to a file?"
Correct. The difference between "Mail PDF" and "Save PDF" is that the first opens a new Mail message with the file attached. the second saves a file which you may attach to an email message.
"Terrainathome is a good example of what I am trying to do."
Not familiar with Terrainathome, but my guess is that the company is sending an email message containing HTML code that downloads what's essentially a web page into the displayed message. To do that, you'll need a website, software that will produce the necessary HTML code, and recipients with email clients capable of interpreting HTML (which is 'most email clients' these days).

How to open a pdf attachment in imac mail

I am unable to open a PDF attachment in Mac Mail. There is not a PDF Icon in the email message. Is there a setting that should be checked?
I have a new iMac (less than a month old) with Mountain Lion.
Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

It is an actual PDF that is an attachment to an email. There is not a link to click on to open the attachment.
The attachment is a statement that I normally open, then print..
What I am seeing on the monitor is the heading portion of the email with the statement image, all on one page..It prints exactly as seen on the screen.
I have checked my Mail>Preferences>Viewing Tab."Display remote images in HTML" messages is checked..
Thanks for the help.

How can I auto export a PDF File using the "Smallest File Size" preset and set the Exported File Name based on information from an Imported PDF?

Greetings all,
I am trying to create a script to automate a PDF export process for my company for inDesign. I’m fairly new to inDesign itself and have no previous experience with javascript, although I did take C++ in high school and have found it helpful in putting this code together.
We have an inDesign template file and then use the Multi-page PDF importer script to import PDF files. We then have to export two version of each file that we import, then delete the imported file and all of the pages to reset the template. This has to be done for nearly 1000 pdf files each month and is quite tedious. I’m working on automating the process as much as possible. I’ve managed to piece together code that will cleanup the file much quicker and am now trying to automate the PDF exports themselves.
The files are sent to us as “TRUGLY#####_Client” and need to be exported as “POP#####_Client_Date-Range_North/South.pdf”
For example, TRUGLY12345_Client needs to be exported as POP12345_Client_Mar01-Mar31_North and POP12345_Client_Mar01-Mar31_South.
There are two templates built into the template file for the north and south file that are toggled easily via layer visibility switches. I need to get a code that can ideally read the #s from the imported Trugly file as well as the Client and input those into variables to use when exporting. The date range is found in the same place in the top right of each pdf file. I am not sure if this can be read somehow or if it will have to be input manually. I can put North or South into the file name based on which template layer is visible.
I am not sure how to go about doing this. I did find the following code for exporting to PDF with preset but it requires me to select a preset and then type the full file name. How can I set it to automatically use the “Smallest File Size” preset without prompting me to choose and then automatically input some or preferably all of the file name automatically? (If the entire filename is possible then I don’t even want a prompt to appear so it will be fully automated!)
PDF Export Code (Originally from here: Simple PDF Export with Preset selection | IndiSnip [InDesign® Snippets]):
var myPresets = app.pdfExportPresets.everyItem().name;
myPresets.unshift("- Select Preset -");
var myWin = new Window('dialog', 'PDF Export Presets');
myWin.orientation = 'row';
with(myWin){
    myWin.sText = add('statictext', undefined, 'Select PDF Export preset:');
    myWin.myPDFExport = add('dropdownlist',undefined,undefined,{items:myPresets});
    myWin.myPDFExport.selection = 0;
    myWin.btnOK = add('button', undefined, 'OK');
myWin.center();
var myWindow = myWin.show();
if(myWindow == true && myWin.myPDFExport.selection.index != 0){
    var myPreset = app.pdfExportPresets.item(String(myWin.myPDFExport.selection));
    myFile = File(File.saveDialog("Save file with preset: " + myPreset.name,"PDF files: *.pdf"));
    if(myFile != null){
        app.activeDocument.exportFile(ExportFormat.PDF_TYPE, myFile, false, myPreset);
    }else{
        alert("No File selected");
}else{
    alert("No PDF Preset selected");
So far my code does the following:
1) Runs the Multi-Page PDF Import Script
2) Runs PDF Export Script Above
3) Toggles the Template
4) Runs #2 Again
5) Deletes the imported PDF and all pages and toggles template again.
It’s close and much better than the original process which was almost 100% manual but I’d like to remove the Preset prompt from the PDF script and have it automatically select the “Smallest File Size” preset. and then if there’s a way to have it auto-fill in the file name so no user input is required at all other than selecting each file to import. (If there’s a way to setup a batch action for the multi-import script that would be even better!)
Thanks in advance and if there’s anything else I can provide that would help please let me know! Even a nudge in the right direction will be a big help!

If you hold down the option key, it will typically show the location. Or you can often hit option-return on the file and it will reveal the file in the Finder, instead of opening it.
Final option is to open it, and just option-click the filename in the toolbar of Preview and it should show you the location.
It's probably an attachment to an email you've received. If you have Mail set to cache emails and their attachments it'll be stashed in a subdirectory of ~/Library/Mail. Which is fine.
