How to open hidden files on iPad 2

I have iPad 2 and I want to access my hidden files. I have been searching in the internet and looked all over for 3 hours but yet nothing. So I thought I may ask here but, I want to open them WITHOUT jailbreaking. I have searched in the internet and I think I understood some stuff. I found out that I can put some commands in something called terminals or finder etc.. I looked around the internet but I did not understand what is that terminal at all. Then when I searched a bit the only thing I found about finder is that I must jailbreak my ipad first and then some program called.... cidney or something will be installed and when I open it I will be download finder app. However, I want to open the hidden files and be able to copy files from FileManager or (one of the two, it does not matter) without jailbreaking. So please tell me how to do it step by step since I am not any professional on iPad and I have it since 2 weeks only.

First, there are only two ways to get new, authorized apps onto an iPad.
One is to download the app from iTunes on a computer, connect the iPad and sync the app over to it.
Two is to use the App store on the iPad itself and download directly to it from there.
If he did anything else to put these apps on your iPad, then he already jailbroke it, as that is the only way he could have bypassed the two officially supported means I just mentioned.
Ordinarily, to delete an iPad app, you would tap and hold the app until it wiggles and a red/white "X" appears in the app icon - then tap the "X" and it is deleted.
If he did not install these apps via iTunes or the App store on the iPad, you have a hacked device, and you should try a restore to undo the jailbreak. Be aware that it is sometimes impossible to undo a jailbreak, and the result is a ruined device.

How to open TIF files in iPad

How to open TIF files in iPad

The Mail ap can handle TIFF files for viewing purposes. They can be saved to the Photos app (from Mail, or other apps such as DropBox), but I beleive they get converted to JPG in the process. There are also a number of third party apps that can at least view TIFF files.
If you could describe exactly what it is you are trying to accomplish, someone may be able to provide more detailed assistancce.

How to open mbox files from Ipad

Hi. I have backed up my Mac email database to the cloud. They are stored in mix format. My question is: may I access to an mbox file from my Ipad in order to look for and view a certain email? If so, which App would serve to do this?. I am using Mavericks in my Mac and IO7 in my Ipad.
Thanks in advance.
Mario

To be honest, i don't even know how an Archive is handled, as opposed to a live Inbox...never archived my Inbox, as i always try to keep my entire Inbox/Sent history live and searchable...can you index and search an Archive the same way as a live Inbox?
I'd be happy just to have those mboxes (Inbox and Sent Items) deposited in the Cloud, and searchable by content and everything else from some search app (not even sure yet which search app i would use for this).
Just to solve this huge problem i was faced with when Yahoo purged my Inbox and didn't allow me to sync it back up (i thought that was the whole point of subscribing to an IMAP email service), i created a new IMAP account with Rackspace, who did allow me to sync both of those mboxes up to their server, but i have found that their indexing isn't as granular as Yahoo's was, so there are many searches that come up empty, when i know that those emails exist on their server...so i keep searching for a better solution.
very upset at Yahoo and their complete lack of proper customer support...it's been all but impossible to get a hold of a human being over there...they keep sending you to their FAQ and Help website, which is ridiculously bad for solving real-world problems, such as the one i've had...you'd think that paying my subscription fees for over 12 years would guarantee me a certain level of support, but they literally *try* to make themselves unavailable, and succeed quite well in shielding their human employees from their customers...'nough said!
do you know of a good iOS search app which might achive what i am trying to do (searching the contents of an mbox file, or mbox folders with eml files in it)? or do you know of a way to set up the iOS Mail app to access such mbox files/folders, as if they had been created in Apple Mail (which they were not, coming from Yahoo)?

How to open PSD file recieved via email on iPad using Photoshop Touch without Creative Cloud?

Hi, how to open PSD file recieved via email on iPad using Photoshop Touch without the need of using Creative Cloud? Thanks.

Hi Super Nemo
Currently the only way to open psd files on Photoshop touch is via the creative cloud. Also, the layers you created from Photoshop on your desktop machine will be flattened when opened with Photoshop touch on your iPad. But you can retain the layers from the touch app when opening the psdx file on your desktop photoshop.

HOW TO VIEW HIDDEN FILES?????

i have searched for days on my computer for some hint a program or option that allows me to view any hidden files in an application folder, but it has yet eluded me.
I am having trouble with a program of mine, and the tech service there told me to send them the programs log file, which they named. i looked in the applications folder, and the only files i saw was the program icon, and the uninstall folder, which contained the uninstall icon. i told them this, and they replied:
"i'am sure that these files are on your computer. Maybe they are invisible.
Please search (automatic) the folder ".********" ."
if anyone knows, eitehr what this means, or how to view hidden files, please let me know
Thanx

To see inside an application package select the application then CTRL- or RIGHT-click and select Show package contents from the contextual menu. You can navigate through the application package's content. It's unlikely you will find anything useful there.
To see invisible files open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and at the command line prompt enter or paste the following command then press RETURN:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE
To turn off the display of invisible files substitute FALSE for TRUE in the same command line.
Invisible files are invisible for a reason - to hide them from the prying eyes of novice users and ignorant tech support people. Perhaps it would be more helpful if you could detail the problem you are having.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You can't see by default hidden files through Finder. However, you can do it with a command that you can copy in Terminal (in /Applications/Utilities). Open this application and type:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE && killall Finder
After doing it, you will be able to see hidden files through Finder in all the volumes connected to the MacBook Pro

Using pages how to insert pdf files on ipad?

using pages how to insert pdf files on ipad?
Anybody have any idea, have pdf files in ibook do not see where to insert pdf's.
Also trying to get word files onto ipad using drop box, do these word files need to be saved in another format?
Also for pages.
thnx

No - the Word files do not need to be saved in any other format if you have Pages on your iPad. There are other apps that provide better compatibility than Pages but it will work for you. You have to have DropBox on your PC and the free DropBox app on the iPad to use DropBox to transfer files.
To send the file using DropBox - make sure DropBox is running on your computer. Then place the file in one of the folders that you have set in your DropBox folder on your PC. Launch DropBox on your iPad and find the folder that you placed the file into and tap on that folder. Find the document and tap on it. It will open in the window on the right. Tap the arrow icon in the upper right corner and select Open in Pages.
If you have pdf files in iBooks that you want to put into Pages you have to email them to yourself and use the Open In feature when you open the email. You cannot send a file from iBooks other than to email it - at least I am not aware of any other way.

Opening hidden files

I've seen the posting on how to make hidden files visible in Finder by changing com.apple.finder and this works fine for the Finder window. However I would like to be able to open a hidden file directly from the File/Open command in one of my programs. This isn't possible as these hidden files don't show up in the open file window.
Does anyone know how to make these hidden files visible in these other windows?

Thanks for the reply. That's a pity but not disastrous, just Lion adding another step to a process.
As baltwo says, this has nothing to do with Lion.
I use Komodo when I'm developing web programs to examine Perl scripts and web pages. I wanted to have a look at the .htaccess file to see if it needed changing and found I couldn't open it from Komodo
That's odd, but perhaps should signal you that you should try a different editor. TextWrangler, for example, can open literally anything from the Open dialog... there's a check box to show hidden items and a menu that'll let you tell it what to allow you to select (one choice is "Everything"). I don't know how TextWrangler, and it's big brother BBEdit, compare to Komodo, but it does a great job editing all kinds of code for me.
Alternately, you could try something like this in the Terminal:
open -a Komodo.app ~/Sites/somesite/.htaccess

View | Show Hidden files IS checked.
Thanks.

Open the Script Editor or AppleScript Editor in one of the subfolders of Applications and run the following:
tell application "Finder" to quit
if (do shell script "defaults read com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles") is "1" then
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 0"
else
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 1"
end if
delay 2
tell application "Finder" to run
If you change your mind later, run the script again.

How to open a file created at the server through form/report at client end

How to open a file created at the server through form/report at client end
Dear Sir/Madame,
I am creating a exception report at the server-end using utl file utility. I want to display this report at the client end. A user doesn't have any access to server. Will u please write me the solution and oblige me.
Thanks

One way of doing this is to write a PL/SQL procedure that uses UTL_FILE to read the file and DBMS_OUTPUT to display the contents to the users.

How to open CR2 files in photoshop elements 10

Who knows how to open CR2-files from a Canon Powershot S100 in Photoshop Elements 10?

Hi,
The version of Camera Raw that you reported should support the S100 CR2 images.
If you load the editor, go to the File menu and select Open, then point to the file, are you saying that it displays the error message?
Have you tried opening the file with Canon's Zoombrowser?
Which operating system are you running on?
