You can make sure that you use Adobe Reader as a PDF Viewer in the browser, although some browsers do not work with Adobe Reader.

Is there a way to allow someone to play a keynote briefing and prevent them from copying, rewriting, or printing it?

Is there a way to allow someone to play a keynote briefing and prevent the user from copying, modifying, or printing it? The reason I ask this
is because I have created a lengthy keynote briefing book that has motion in it, and I don't want it copied, modified, or printed.

To lock a presentation : 1 Open the presentation you want to lock , and hold your pointer over the name of the presentation at the top of the Keynote application window. A triangle appears. 2 Click the triangle and choose Lock. To unlock a presentation for editing: Hold your pointer over the name of the presentation at the top of the application m window until the triangle appears, click the triangle, and then choose Unlock
Good luck

Can I copy/paste a FF Reader pdf file to a 2nd computer that does not have FF Reader?

I have 2 computers, one has Fire Fox Reader one does not. Is it possible to copy/paste by way of a jump drive a pdf file that is saved using Fire Fox Reader to the computer that does not have Fire Fox Reader and be able to open & work with that pdf file? The second computer only has Adobe Reader installed.
I already know that an Adobe Reader pdf file moved from the 2nd computer to the first will open, it opens in Fire Fox Reader.

Yes, if you save a PDF file then you can open that file with any program that can handle such a PDF file.
So if the other computer has the Adobe Reader then that program will be used.

How can I prevent iTunes from copying files to C drive?

I keep all my music files on my D drive. When I installed iTunes, I made sure that each song title in the library was linked to the mp3 on the D drive. Recently I found about 155 music files that are now duplicated in a folder on my C drive named "iTunes music" Most the file modification dates are either 9/11/2010 or 10/25/2010. I tried to think of any action I've taken that might have caused this. The only unusual thing I've done recently with iTunes is try out a new accessory called TuneUp. I've used it to find album art and find details about some songs that were missing, like what album the file came from etc. Is it possible that TuneUp is creating new modified versions of the music files rather than applying the updated data to the original files on the D drive?

That sounds like a good guess.
I know nothing about TuneUp or how it works, and I can't recall where iTunes keeps it's Artwork, but they may very well be related.
Is your settings in iTunes for copying files/where they are stored correct? Perhaps installing the 3rd party application made a change to your settings.
Try tracing back one of the files to your library and see if you can identify an action you took that created the files. For example... look at one of these suspect files and find it in the iTunes library. Sort your music by Date Added and see if you can find a correlation.

Links from RoboHelp don't convert into PDF file when "printing to PDF"

I need to output my webhelp file to an Adobe PDF. However, my
links are not converting UNLESS I put in part of the code. mailto:
links will work if there is a visible @xxxxx on the screen.
Regardless of the background code, if I don't have the @xxxx
visible on the page, the link will not work. The "hand" will not
turn into a "pointing finger" in the PDF file.
I've looked at the settings, and am beating my head against
the wall! This is a manual that will be published to a PDF on a
weekly basis, so redoing all the links in Adobe is not a solution!
I need my links to other parts of the manual, URLs and email links
to work as the do in the RH side. All suggestions welcomed!
Thanks!!
p.s. I am using RH 5.0.2. The Adobe side is 7.0 Thanks!

Hi Teri
Links are retained in the version 6 release.
Just some food for thought...
Cheers... Rick

Prevent surfers from copying text

hi
i have a site with long articles.
how do i prevent surfers from copying text from the site
(copying by ctrl+c

just disabling right-click is not enough

As others have already said, it can't be done, period. That's
the nature
of the medium. If you cannot risk the content being copied,
then don't
put it on a Web site. Even a protected PDF could be printed
and scanned
in OCR software or the password could simply be cracked. The
Web is
insecure by nature. If any content (text, images, PDF's
whatever)
reaches the user's browser, it's theirs to copy.
just disabling right-click is not enough
It's not only not enough, it's completely and utterly
pointless and
ineffectual and it's a very bad idea to begin with:

How to hide cut/copy/paste/Replace… menu on the UIWebView when it is being displayed over the keyboard.
Detail: I am having a HTML from, having text box, displayed using UIWebView. If user types in text box it shows the keyboard. Now If user tap and hold on text box it shows a popup menu. Now while keyboard and pop up are being displayed user scrolls the view. At this time it shows pop up over the keyboard which I need to hide.
I tried setMenuVisible of UIMenuController when popup rect and keyboard rect intersects each other on viewDidScroll but it didn't help me.
Any clues will help a lot.
Thanks.

How can I prevent Applications from being copied to external drive?

Hello,
Just a quick one...
I run a studio in an education evironment. We've got quite a lot of software installed on our machines (Mac OS X 10.7.4) and there's always the chance that students will copy applications from the Applications folder onto an external drive to take home!
Obviously this is becoming increasingly easy with large USB sticks and Applications which are entirely contained in the Applications folder.
Is there any way that students can still run these applications during class but prevent them from copying the whole applications?
With thanks in advance,
Lawrence

You can hide the Applications folder, but it isn't a total solution. Open Terminal and type:
cd /
sudo chflags hidden /Applications

How can I prevent Bridge from altering my photos?

HELP!!!
Within the past few days my Bridge CS4 program has been making my life miserable. I had been utilizing the program to batch photos from my extensive photo library, rename them, sort them (i.e., change sort/ordinal number), and the like without any difficulty and then suddenly, after executing such processes my thumbnails turned completely white and would not open in Bridge, Photoshop CS4 Extended - much less anything else. I tried reopening them as .jpg's, .psd's, .tiff's to no avail. I went into properties on each photo and checked the "open with" tab, and it noted that the photo was not recognized. I had some moderate success opening them with Quicktime Picture Viewer, but converting them back to a Bridge readable format (i.e., their original state) proved impossible. Having noticed that Quicktime had hijacked nearly my entire photo opening process, I uninstalled it in the hope that it would solve the problem. It didn't. I then went into Bridge and Photoshop CS4 preferences to try and modify how photos were opened, and couldn't seem to find anything applicable. I did, however, increase the memory and cache allocated to each program substantially.
Last night I ran into more problems with Bridge. While scanning both photo negatives and prints into Bridge and saving them into various files, I encountered the same problem indicated in paragraph one. I tried scanning several of them a second time and succeeded; however, I had to save them to a different file and give them dissimilar names in .tiff format. In the process I found more than a dozen ways to spell "Mexico," "Tokyo," and "Ukraine"! They would not save as .jpg's or .psd's.
I use Windows Vista Home Premium SP1, have a Pentium 4 Dual Core (2.8) processor, 4 GB Memory, Nvidia GE Force 7600 video card (yes, the drivers are up to date), and Hewlett Packard Photosmart C7180 and C7280 printers for scanning. All of the photos involved are stored on a Maxtor One Touch 1TB Turbo auxillary hard drive.
Also, could anyone suggest how I can get the SD/MMC card reader on my PC to work?
Thanks to any and all for assisting me with my problem.

Thank you curt y for your quick response. I have seen your recommendations on the adobe forums link in the past and many of your solutions
seem to have helped other people with Bridge problems. I took your suggestion and gave it a whirl - all preferences were restored to defaults - and the problem continues. I get the feeling the problems lies with the program's interaction with Windows.
Having tried a few more things, I've found that I can move the photo shell (the inscription underneath the thumbnail states, "Window Shell Common") to my desktop and open it there with Photoshop (i.e., going through the song and dance of "open with" and clicking on the CS4 icon, where it opens up in RAW). I must then move it over to Photoshop CS4 and save it as a .jpg or a .psd. Unfortunately, after all this it still won't open in Bridge. By all appearances, Bridge somehow has become corrupted and I'm probably going to have to do a complete Photoshop CS4 uninstall and reinstall.
I've spent hundreds - if not thousands - of hours scanning into my system some 10,000 photographs of my travels (yes, they are backed up on discs), and Bridge should not be negatively impacting my ability to organize and manipulation them as is happening now. If the uninstall/reinstall does not resolve the problem, I'll be back on this forum for more suggestions.
As for the card reader issue, I'm well aware of the 2GB/over 2GB issue. I typically use a 4GB or more card in my camera. I can download fine through my HP 7180 and 7280 card readers, but my HP 1518n card reader is a different story. I'll work a little more on it, too.
Thanks again.

Have you tried resetting your preferences by holding down the Ctrl key and starting Bridge? You will get a reset window, choose all 3 options.
The only thing I know about card readers is that there are 2 versions. One for cards of 2 gigs or less, and one for HD cards over 2 gigs. Make sure card and reader match.

Is there a way to get them off without deleting each one? Also how do i prevent this from happening again? can someone direct me to some info on multiple phones on one itunes i am lost.

Hey there 79usma79!
I have a couple of articles for you that can help you troubleshoot the issues you are seeing with iTunes on Windows XP. The first is a general troubleshooting article, which can be found right here:
iTunes for Windows XP: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1421
This article can help you find out if there are any conflicts between your copy of Windows XP and iTunes, and can tell you what to do if there are. Before going down the troubleshooting route though, you should take a look at this article, which can help you back up your entire iTunes library to an external hard drive, so if this issue is recurring, you will be able to restore from that backup and will not have to worry about losing your playlists or music again:

How can I prevent Firefox from cleaning my clipboard at exit (exit or closing firefox) ?

How can I prevent Firefox from cleaning my clipboard at exit (exit or closing firefox) ?
I am using FF 9.0.1 and the problem start from FF 5.0

You can't prevent that.<br />
If you've placed data on the clipboard in Firefox then you need to paste that data in the other program, if that is your intention, before closing Firefox.

I'm having some difficulty with Time Machine. It appears to be deleting backups from random dates on my external hard drive. I am not deleting them. Are they hidden and how do I prevent this from happening? Can I retrieve them?

I'm having some difficulty with Time Machine. It appears to be deleting backups from random dates on my external hard drive. I am not deleting them. Are they hidden and how do I prevent this from happening? Can I retrieve them?

... I didn't know that Time Machine was more a last resort back up instead of main back up.
Don't rely upon Time Machine to the exclusion of all else. I compliment Time Machine with a periodic "clone". TM is much better than nothing, but it's a safety net, not a hammock
Here is my understanding of Time Machine's file deletion algorithm, distilled from Pondini's FAQ, Apple's KB articles, and my own observations.
Time Machine deletes ("thins") files from the backup disk as follows:
Hourly backups over 24 hours old, except the first backup of the day
Daily backups over 30 days old, except the first backup of the week
Older backups get deleted when Time Machine requires space and you deleted them from the source disk.
Therefore, assuming TM has been performing at least one backup per day, backup files will remain available:
at least thirty days, if they existed on your Mac for at least a day
until you run out of space, if they existed on your Mac for at least a week
In addition to the above, Time Machine always keeps one complete copy of your source disk so that the entire volume could be restored if necessary. Any files that remain on your source volume will be present on the TM backup, no matter how old they are.
If you are using 250 GB of space on your source disk, its Time Machine backups are likely to require at least twice that much. A good estimate of the minimum required backup volume size would be about three times the size of your source disk - 1.5 TB in your case.
A more thorough explanation would require Pondini since he has plumbed Time Machine's mysteries far more than I have.

How do I prevent itunes from moving my music from its original place ie folders in an external drive when I play music from itunes. I have all my music in artist folders and separated by MPG3/MPG4 and FLAC folder within the artist folder.

How do I prevent itunes from moving my music from its original place ie folders in an external drive when I play music from itunes. I have all my music in artist folders and separated by MPG3/MPG4 and FLAC folders within the artist folder and itunes moves the track/s whenever i try and load selected music to my ipod/iphone. I've tried to find some sort of preference to prevent this, but no joy? What am I missing?

Try opening iTunes preferences. Then click on advanced tab. Then uncheck "Copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library." By default, iTunes copies music to its own media folder when you use iTunes to play the music.

I have downloaded Firefox 4.0 several times and after a short amount of time (days) it reverts back to 3.6.16. Why does it happen and how do I prevent it from happening again?

The Firefox 4.0 on my laptop reverts back to 3.6.16. This has happened several times. Why does this happen and/or how do I prevent it from happening again?

Thanks for the link. I just downgraded to the absolute shtfest that's 4.0. I WAS just fuming about how gawdawful this "new" version is, but after wasting so much time trying to sort thru all the issues caused by this 4.0 downgrade (past updates have always been seamless and troublefree - not so for this shtfest!) I'm flat-out RAGING!!! Fortunately the laptop still has 3.6.xx running - it's the LAST version of Firefox it will EVER see. I switched to Firefox so many years ago to get away from the insanity and frustration of Explorer - if this 4.0 crapshoot is the "future" of Firefox, then the incompetent nimrods responsible for it know where they can ram it. I'm starting the search for a new browser now - so long Firefox, it's been fantastic while it lasted, but you've gone and screwed the pooch, you've ruined a superb browser!
I'll attempt a reload of 3.6.xx on the desk machine, and if successful I'll run it till it drops, or I find a suitable replacement browser, but 4.0 won't be coming back - GOOD RIDDANCE!!!

How do I prevent Lightroom from creating duplicates if the edit in photoshop is not saved?

Hello!
How do I prevent Lightroom from creating duplicates if the edit in photoshop is not saved?
So... Quite often I choose to 'Edit in photoshop' from Lightroom but then end up not saving the result. (for example, because I just wanted to experiment with the photo, or I'm not satisfied with the results)
However, Lightroom always creates a copy of the original photo, which stays in the catalog even if the photoshop changes aren't saved.
Is there a way to stop this, and only add a photo if it has been edited in PS?
Using LR5 with PS CS6 on a Mac 10.9
THANK YOU!

Select 'Open the Image in PS as a Smart Object'. The image will be rendered by ACR in memory without being written to disc until you save it from within PS.
