How do I place a link on my desktop to Reader in Windows 8?

I need to place a shortcut to Reader on my Guest account. I have tried right click, pin to start, drag and drop, download from store. Not working. I am new to Windows 8 and really need a step by step. Literally step by step on how this can be done. Thanks everyone in advance.

I assume it is actually installed and works for other people (not guests)?
At a guess, then, it is designed not to work for guest.
Still, you can try this. Go down through folders (names are approximate)
C:
Program files  or  Program files (X86)
Adobe
Adobe Reader 11.0
Look for the file ACRORD32.EXE
Right drag to desktop, choose Create Shortcut.
But if it's designed not to work for guest, you may be out of luck.

  • How do I place a link to a web site on my screen.  I have done this on my iPhone, but don't remember how I did it.  Now I want to do the same on my iPad.  Thanks

    How do I place a link to a web site on my iPad screen?  I have done this on my iPhone, but I don't remember how I did it.  Getting old I guess.  Thanks.

    In Safari (on the page that you want the link for) press the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it,select the 'Add To Home Screen' option, and then chose what you want to call it (as you can't change the name after it's saved).

  • How do I save a link to my desktop?

    How do I save a link to my desktop. In IE I used to save a link to my desktop for a website that I wanted to look at again. I guess I could bookmark it, but I usually only do that for sites that I visit often. In IE the option was under File > Send Link. Any ideas or suggestions?

    Hey terenceholt,
    This is actually really easy to do. All you have to do is go to the webpage that you want to bookmark. Click on the site icon to the left side of the URL and drag the icon to your desktop.
    It's probably easier to see it done, so you should look at the KB article [[Creating a desktop shortcut to a web page]].
    Hope this helps!

  • How do I redirect HOME link to anonymous desktop?

    Hi,
    May I know how to redirect the Home link back to anonymous desktop?
    Thank you very much.

    You can customize templates for the anonymous desktop by editing the menubar.html file and changing settings in the administration console.
    Edit the HREF definition for the Home link in the /etc/opt/SUNWips/desktop/default/iwtDesktop/menubar.html file.
    The following format reveals on how to set the home link from the desktop to be redirected to the anonymous desktop:
    <a href="/home?goto=/login/Anonymous?domain=mydomain>home</a>

    How can i transfer back up contact from desktop pc working on Windows 7 to iphone 5 working on ios 8.1?

    You can't restore to a backup that was taken on a device which has a higher version of iOS than on your iPad, you will have to update your iPad to 8.1.3 to be able to restore to it
    You should be able to update your iPad via Settings > General > Software Update

  • How do I place a link in a PDF that takes the user to an online order form that is pre-populated in different ways, depending on what button they pressed?

    Hi There,
    My question is basically in the top there. Essentially I want to create a marketing brochure that really gives my clients the easiest way to get to and purchase my product.
    Is the only way to do it to create a separate order form for each product and just send them to that?
    I'd love some feedback,
    thanks
    Alex.

    There are various ways this can be done. One way is to use a back-end application to pre-populate a copy of the PDF with the data and then serve it to the user, but that is quite complex to implement. Another way would be to use parameters in the URL to do it. That can be done more easily with a script.

  • How do you open a link within a PDF in a new window?

    I created a PDF that will be viewed in a browser. Is there a way to set the links within the PDF to open in a new window?

    Did you get an answer to this?   I am having the exact same issue.  My source html document has a link which specifies a target of _blank, but when I generate a pdf from that html doc, view the PDF in my browswer, and click the link, it overlays the PDF instead of opening a new window with the linked URL.  I've seen this posted as an issue a number of times, but have yet to see a solution.

  • [S] how do I create a link symbolic in Desktop through rules in udev ?

    Hi everyone!
    My Rule:
    [solano@localhost ~]$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/01-montagem.rules
    KERNEL=="sd[c-z]", NAME="%k", SYMLINK+="usb%m", GROUP="users", OPTIONS="last_rule"
    ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd[c-z][0-9]", SYMLINK+="usb%n", GROUP="users", NAME="%k"
    ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd[c-z][0-9]", RUN+="/bin/mkdir -p /media/usb%n"
    ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd[c-z][0-9]", PROGRAM=="/lib/udev/vol_id -t %N", RESULT=="vfat", RUN+="/bin/mount -t vfat -o rw,noauto,flush,quiet,nodev,nosuid,noexec,noatime,dmask=000,fmask=111 /dev/%k /media/usb%n", OPTIONS="last_rule"
    ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd[c-z][0-9]", RUN+="/bin/mount -t auto -o rw,noauto,sync,dirsync,noexec,nodev,noatime /dev/%k /media/usb%n", OPTIONS="last_rule"
    ACTION=="remove", KERNEL=="sd[c-z][0-9]", RUN+="/bin/umount -l /media/usb%n"

    Try these rules
    ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd[c-z][0-9]", RUN+="/bin/ln -s /media/usb%k /home/solano/Desktop/usb%k"
    ACTION=="remove", KERNEL=="sd[c-z][0-9]", RUN+="/bin/rm -f /home/solano/Desktop/usb%k"
    The first rule should be placed before your mount rule and the second rule should be placed before your umount rule (it's important because mount rules are using OPTIONS="last_rule"). Also I'm using %k not %n because when you unplug your usb stick %n might return an empty string causing the second rule to not work. However if %n works for you (which means the link is created and deleted on usb stick removal) you can change %k to %n (the replacement must be done in all rules of course).

  • My old pc is dead. Now my iPad refuses to syncronize itself with the iTunes sw I installed on my new PC. How can I do to link my iPad with the new pc (windows 8)?

    Hi,
    I had to change my PC because it stopped working suddenly. I had no time to recover iTunes. On my iPad, it is recorded the name of my old PC as syncronisation machine so it refuses to syncronize with the iTunes I installed on my new PC (windows 8).
    Is there anyone who can help me?
    Many thanks.

  • How do I set the Page size default in Adobe Reader using Window 8?

    I need to set the page size everytime I go to print from my Adobe Reader in my windows 8. Is there a way to set the page I want letter (8.5 by 11) as a default? So I do not have to do this everytime I print something?

    I can't help but wonder why Adobe doesn't respond to this - at this point there are 464 views of this item and still no answer. I have the same problem and it's a big irritation to have to set the duplex mode everytime I want to print!

  • How can I insert watermark in printing document by ADOBE Reader through Windows API hooking?

    Hi. I'm now trying to hook windows API to insert watermark image when printing a document.
    It works fine with MS Word, PowerPoint, Notepad and Mspaint except Adobe Reader when I hooked EndPage API calls to insert watermark image.
    And all the progress looks work well from the log but i can't insert the watermark image.
    Then i tried it with another PDF viewer, it was work well except only ADOBE Reader.
    Any suggestions will be helpful to me.
    Thank you.

    Ask in the Reader forum. However, the process should be a property of the print driver for your printer, not Reader.

  • How to put a web link in the detailed navigation

    How can you put a web link in the detailed navigation?
    I know that if your role contains iviews that are 3 levels down (default), then the link to the iview will appear in the detailed navigation. But, I want to put a link to a external site in the detailed navigation - is this possible?
    Thanks
    Patrick

    I have a page set with a url iview and it opens from the detailed navigation in a  new window fine.
    however when clicking on a link to the page via a landing page which displays the KM content page folders, it loads it in the portal active window still (with nav and masthead).
    Any ideas how to get the km link to open in a new browser window?
    thanks
