Hi my name is Catherine I have downloaded digital editions and a book to my PC but wish to read this on an iPad. I have downloaded Digital Editions on the iPad and don't know how to authorize it. Will the book automatically download onto the iPad once tihis is done and I open my account on the iPad?

YOu can also use Bluefire Reader for reading books that need an Adobe ID. There are several ways to transfer a book to your iPad. One way is to email the acsm file, open the email on the iPad, and "Open in ... ". Another way is to use an app like Dropbox. The third way is to connect your iPad to your computer, open iTunes, select the iPad, and under Settings select Apps. Scroll down to the File Sharing apps, select the app you want the book on, on the right select Add, navigate to where the book is on your computer, and select it. Open the app on your iPad and it should load.

I can't print a Adobe PDF file from the browser. Ignores print command.

Nothing happens when trying to print PDF from browser. Print box doesn't pop up and does not go to Printer queue.

None of the above solutions worked for me. I have Firefox 10.0.1 and Adobe Reader 9.5.0, and a pdf file would not print either from the Adobe print button or CTRL-P or the Firefox File, Print command. Firefox Print Preview just shows a blank screen. If I save the pdf file it prints OK from Adobe Reader.

I opened an Adobe pdf document from a website and now the document is no longer available on that website. Is it possible to look at that document again? Does Firefox actually download the pdf, and if so where is it? Thanks much.

Just to clarify, the website removed the link to the pdf doc, which is why I can no longer retrieve it. I should have saved it, but I didn't think they would remove it.

This should get you to the temporary files [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/776263#answer-129514]
And if not you might be able to google the page and click cached. If you cant do that i would suggest going and contacting the site

HT1296 I downloaded adobe digital book from my library to my computer, but don't know how to push it to my iPad2

How do I sync adobe digital books downloaded to my computer over to my iPad?
I got the adobe digital book from my library. Thanks.

The way to get the synch done quickly is to synch your iPad to your computer by plugging it in to iTunes on that computer.
There is a way it will be synched wirelessly, but that will take longer to complete. You would go to Settings --> iCloud --> Storage and Backup ... etc.

I have locked myself out of my iPad and can not restore unless I go onto the iPad and turn off FindMyiPhone, how do I sort this out?

After installing iOS7 I was prompted to make a passcode, I did so and stupidly forgot and now continually am disabling my iPad, ways in which I have read you can sort this is restoring your iPad, however I can not restore without iTunes telling me I need to go onto the iPad and turn off FindMyiPhone! How else can I sort this? It is logged into my apple account and everything! This is an iPad 2 also ASAP help!!

Hello shanefox,
This can be done by logging in at iCloud.com and removing your device via the Find My iPhone web interface.

HT4168 I have created an 100 page booklet in Pages, with many photographs, can I export it to ePub, and make an electronic book, because it says that "Note: The Pages document must have been created using a word processing template"?

I have created an 100 page booklet in Pages, with many photographs, and much written word, can I export it to ePub, and make an electronic book, because it says that "Note: The Pages document must have been created using a word processing template"?....
Basically what I want to do is publish the document into both an eDocument, and a hard copy document. What is the best way to do this?

No Peter, this statement came right off the Apple ePub statement when outlining how to use ePub. the full context is:
Creating ePub files with Pages
Summary
Learn how to create ePub files with Pages.
Products Affected
Pages '09
ePub is an open ebook standard produced by the International Digital Publishing Forum. Pages ’09 lets you export your documents in ePub format for reading with iBooks on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
iBooks supports both ePub and PDF file formats, and you can export both from Pages.
When to use ePub or PDF
Use ePub when text is the most important part of your document, for example when you create a book, a report, a paper, a thesis, or classroom reading material.
More details on using ePubUse PDF when layout is the most important part of your document, for example when you create a brochure, a flyer, or a manual with multiple illustrations.
More details on using PDF
Creating an ePub Document to Read in iBooks
You can export any Pages word processing document to the ePub file format for reading in an ePub reader, such as the iBooks application on the iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch. Documents created in page layout templates can’t be exported to the ePub format.
Documents exported to ePub format will look different than their Pages counterparts. If you want to get the best document fidelity between the Pages and ePub formats, style your Pages document with paragraph styles and other formatting attributes allowed in an ePub file. A sample document is provided on the Apple Support site that features styles and guidelines to help you create a Pages document that’s optimized for export to the ePub file format, which you can use as a template or a guide. To learn more about using paragraph styles in Pages, see the topics under the heading “Working with Styles” in the Pages built-in help.
To read your ePub document in iBooks on your mobile device, you must transfer the ePub file that you create onto your device.
To use the “ePub Best Practices” sample documentTo learn more about using the ePub format and get a better feel for how a Pages document might appear as a book in iBooks, it’s a good idea to download the “ePub Best Practices” sample document. After reading the guidelines and instructions within the document, you can use it as a template to create your own document. You can also import the styles from the sample document into a new document you create.
Download the “ePub Best Practices” sample document at the following web address:
http://images.apple.com/support/pages/docs/ePub_Best_Practices_EN.zip
Do either of the following:Use the sample document as a template.Import the paragraph styles from the sample document into a new or existing Pages document.
Export the document you create to ePub format to see how it looks in iBooks.
Preparing an existing Pages document for export to ePub format
Documents exported to the ePub format automatically appear with page breaks before every chapter. A table of contents is automatically generated, which allows readers to jump quickly to any chapter title, heading, or subheading in the book. In order to create a meaningful table of contents, it’s important to apply appropriate styles within your document. The ePub reader uses the paragraph styles to determine which items should appear in the table of contents for your book.
Note: The Pages document must have been created using a word processing template.

Is there a way to control Adobe PDF plugin from within a Web Application? For Example, Can we highlight text in the PDF/A document programatically?

Hi,
I am trying to open a PDF document in browser using Adobe PDF plug-in for IE 9. The plugin version is 10.x
I need to highlight certain text in the PDF document ( which is searchable) programmatically. For example, when a user selects certain text on the web-page, we want to automatically highlight that in the PDF document.

I don't think this is a question one can answer by simply downloading the SDK. And even if one reads all the documentation (it rarely happens for obvious reasons), it is not easy to reach an answer because its explanation is not trivial at all.
In my own opinion, this is right the type of question to be put and (hopefully) answered in a Forum.
Now, I am not sure about the correct answer but I will give one hint.
If I am not wrong, the Internet Explorer, IE, PDF viewer by Adobe is actually a .dll file which is put under IE once Adobe Reader is installed. A custom plug-in for Reader or Acrobat is also a .dll file (Windows) but its extension is .api and it needs to be copied under Reader or Acrobat (or both). Therefore, I don't see how we can merge the IE viewer .dll with a custom plug-in .api. Though maybe technically possible, I don't think it is something we can do.
If above reasoning is correct, the answer to the question is No.

Why can't I get adobe pdf translator to open?

why can't I get adobe pdf translator to open?

Perhaps because you don't know what you have (because there is no product called "adobe pdf translator"), Also perhaps because you aren't in a place to get support from Adobe. If you'd like us in the community to try to help, we might, if you can help us understand what is wrong. What is the specific product you are trying to use, and what happens when you try to use it. Please give any error messages exactly.

Can you still access Adobe PDF SAVED FILES WHEN YOU GET A NEW COMPUTER

Can you still access Adobe PDF SAVED FILES WHEN YOU GET A NEW COMPUTER ? Do you loose the files you have saved on you old computer when you get another computer?

I may not be clear on what you are asking here but I'll try an answer anyway since that's the type of guy I am.
If you have PDF files on your old computer, you will need to transfer them to your new computer. You can use a flash drive or CD if needed.
But again, I think I'm not getting what you are really wanting to know. If I'm not, can you give us some more details?

I am trying to reinstall Dreamweaver CS3 from the CD after having computer issues. Now getting error "You can only install one Adobe product at a time. Please complete the other installation before attempting to install ......." There is no other Adobe product installing. I have used the Adobe Cleaner Tool many times and uninstalled other Adobe Products but neither has worked. I have uninstalled/reinstalled this CD version of Dreamweaver several times when changing computers and after having computer issues. A google search of the problem suggested it may be an error related to the number of times I can reinstall this product due to licensing issues. Please help.

A google search of the problem suggested it may be an error related to the number of times I can reinstall this product due to licensing issues.
Absolutely not. You are misinterpreting things. The activation check never happens when just running the installer, only much later. It means what it says - there is another "install" pending/ active on your system, meaning somewhere there is an (invisible) process still blocking things. Either way, since you haven't provided any real technical info, we can't advise specifically. if you are on Windows, you may want to check your task manager and terminate any setup.exe and msiexec.exe processes plus potentially may need to manually fix/ delete some registry keys. For anything beyond that you will have to be much more specific.

Can I sync only a book from a newly downloaded itunes to my ipad without erasing all the other music etc since it's synced to another computer?

I'm traveling and in an area that does not have wifi. However I do have LAN access. So I put a new copy of itunes on my laptop and downloaded a book I want to put on my ipad. How do I get the book from this new itunes to my ipad? Can I sync just the book without erasing everything else since I'm synced to my main computer which I do not have any access to?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi again. Chris is talking about an Adhoc network. Make sure your PC wifi is enabled, then clck start and browse to control Panel. Open your Network Connections folder (name may be different depending on windows version).
You need to create a new wireless network called an Adhoc network. Note on most windows setups, it will not accept a WPA2 type password (bug I think). Try one first and if it fails, try with the WEP password. Take note of the prompt on type of input for the password and remember certain multi digit and numerals used consecutively will be rejected by the ipad.
When the wizard finishes. Close Network folder and click on your network icon in the system tray on your task bar. Click Connect to a network - then select your new Adhoc network and click connect. It will then start to advertise itself.
Go to your ipad Settings\Wifi and tap on Other. Enter your Network name in the top, then tap on tab belwo and set the password strength - WPA2 WEP etc. Go back a page and enter your password then Click Join. If the password is accepted it will join. If not go back to Network Settings and delete the previous Adhoc network (Dont try and reuse it) Create another one with a different name and try a different password srength.
If it does not work with a WEP - it could be a required Service is not running on your PC
Go to your Start button, and in the search area that appears type in Services - then hit enter. he Search explorer window should open with Services shortcutin Administrative Tools folder showing. Double Click it.
The following Services should be as follows
Workstation - Automatic, running
WLAN Autoconfig - Automatic, running
Telephony - Manual, started
TCPIP Netbios Helper - Automatic, started
SSDP Discovery (required to advertise your network presence) Manual, started
Server - Automatic Delayed Start, started
Security Centre - Automatic Delayed Start, started
Secure Sockets Tunnelling Protocol Service - Manual, started
Remote Access Connection Manager - Manual, started
ditto Auto connection Manager - Manual - stopped (runs when required)
Network List Service - Automatic, started
Network Connections - Manual, started
Function Discovery Resource Publication (required for some local sharing by some windows programs even when not connected to a work network - Automatic, started
Function Discovery Provider Host - Manual, Started
Extensible Authentication Protocol - Manual. started
DNS Client - Automatic, started
Base Filtering Engine - Automatic, started
Background Intelligent Transfer Service - Automatic delayed start, started
Application Experience - Automatic, started
Whilst at it, check Apple Application Management, Bonjour, and ipod services are all automatic and started when checking your services settings.
A full listing of default services can be found At Black Viper - use the NormalDefault settings for your system.
N.B. You may need to be in Admin user account if you need to alter the property sheets of any of these services - particularly the Apple three.
Also note that some sytems do require the UPnP Device Host to be Automatic, started; to accept third party vendor equipment connections. I have a vaio and when I have set mine to manual, I have had some problems in the past.
If you have Antivirus and/or windows firewall or a third party firewall enabled, when the connection goes live you will be asked to define its type. Choose Local or Trusted.
Lastly, when you disconnect from your Adhoc network, it can sometimes stop the associated service (found only in the registry) - you may need to log off and back on again to reconnect.
hope this helps, best regards, Ct
P.S

You can make a PDF file out of you notes and handouts but using the Adobe PDF printer.
Open your PowerPoint Document then go to “File” “Print”
Select ‘Adobe PDF” Printer
Under slides, select which way you want to print. Note it will not print to a printer but to a PDF file.
After then go into printer Properties and Setup PDF properties, do the following: (see second image below)
Default: PDF/A 1-b
Adobe Security: none (change as needed)
Adobe Output folder: Prompt for Adobe file name
Adobe Page size: Letter (change as needed)
Check the following check boxes
View Adobe PDf Results,
Add Document Information,
Rely on system fonts only,
Delete Log files for successful jobs.
Select OK
A pop will ask you where you want to save the document. The file extension should be PDF. After giving the file name select okay and the file should popup as a PDF. Down side is if you want to speaker notes included then you will have to do another file, like wise with just screen shots then combine into one PDF document.
I used Acrobat IX Pro. So to do this you need Acrobat IX or X Pro.
Hope this will help.

Can't open PDF file from iBook on MAC. error "The application “ACDSee Pro” can’t be opened."

Hi arewers,
Do you have Adobe Reader installed, by any chance? If so, are you aware if it was the PPC or Intel version which you installed? In any case, for the time being, have a quick look in 'HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins/' using Finder and see if there's an Adobe plugin lying around. If there is, try moving it out of the folder and restarting Safari.
