I'm a "virgin" at this!!  I just scanned a phone list into a computer, saved it as a PDF doc.  I want to convert it into Excel doc and SAVE in Excel so I can update as necessary.  Help!!

I've never used this service!  I just scanned a phone list into my computer and saved it as a PDF doc.  I wanted to convert it into an Excel file to make updating easy.  Help!

When you scan something, the result is an image, no editable text.  This is why text inside an image must be converted into real text; using OCR (Optical Character Recognition).
The way to do that is different when using Acrobat or ExportPDF; that's why I'm asking.

    Why I can't change on the settings ,I cloud ,advanced l, mail and then email address there I can't change ? Help please?

    You can't change that address by design, but Apple allows you to create another two addresses and use instead they call those aliases and you can create and use those different for different people with the same account. Instructions here

    To replace your phone's screen costs $109US and I don't see why having Apple replace the screen would void your warranty.

    Hi, I am trying to convert my resume on pages to a word document.  When i export the file to to make it a word document ie(resume.doc) it messes up my whole resume on websites and pulls up a bunch of random words. Please help!

    What exactly is the problem?
    Your description is so muddled I am having trouble working it out.
    How does your exported .doc file mess up websites? In fact what does it have to do with websites?
    Where, how and what are the random words turning up?

  • Whenever I go to open firefox it automatically directs me to google. Ihave downloaded 4.1 and still get nothing but google can anyone explain or help

    Just as above Whenever I go to the Mozilla/Firefox from the graphic on my desktop I automatically get directed to Google.
    Is this normal or what do I have to do in order to get all the stuff
    I see offered on Firefox? I have downloaded the 4.1 version and
    still can not get the website of Firefox

    Nope---didn't work. I've owned Macs for about 12 years so although I am brain dead on some things, I do have a working knowledge on most things. I only say that to say this--I did try holding down the mouse and choosing empty trash. It asks if I want to permanently delete what's in there. I say yes--and then I get the same identical message again-----'The operation can't be completed because the item "Firefox 8.0.1.dmg" is in use I can then click stop, or continue.' So apparently that complains the same way it does if I click it up on the menu :)))
    As for item owned by---that's not an issue and isn't coming up. User is not a problem either as I am the only user on this system. There is only ONE file in my trash at the moment at that is this dmg file. Nothing Mac. Nothing owned by anyone other than Firefox. The problem seems to be that the dmg file and the original 4.0 FF file are working in tandem with each other--even though I have already drug the new 8.0 globe into the Apps folder and it updated the FF app with the new stuff. If I could force the dmg file to go away, I would do so, but at every turn the system is telling me it can't be done because it seems to think that dmg file is in use---even though everything is shut down and/or ejected. Hey--I'm getting ready to head out and won't be back till evening. I'll check back in this evening. Thank you again for your help.

  • Can I Save and Saveas an excel running into a webbrowser (C#)? Permissions problems?

    Hi,
    When we open an excel via the Open method we can configure the parameters 'readonly = false' and 'editable = true' to allow saving with Save and Saveas methods avoiding the messages "A file named 'test.xls' already exists in this location. Do you want to replace it?"
    The problem is that I don't open the Excel file as above . My application (C#) charges the excel in a webbrowser inside a windows form so I prepere a workbook, I open it in the WebBrowser ( with Navigate method, not Open method) and  then  I assign the WebBrowser document to the application so I could continue to control it
    The question is: Is there any way to open this Excel file in a webbrowser with permissions similar to 'readonly = false' and 'editable = true' of the Open method???
    - If not, the Save function doesn't work and the saving only occurs when I change the content of the webbrowser ( for instance when I it's executed the line  mywebBrowser.Navigate("about:blank", false); ). Moreover It appears the messege "A file named 'test.xls' already exists in this location. Do you want to replace it?"
    - On the other way, if it can't be done, It`ll never works the Saveas function...
    I'd appreciate any suggest!

    This question won't get much action in the C# group...try posting it in the Discussions in Office Development or Discussions in Automation forum for interop questions.

  • Can't update apps and does not show that I can update the iPad?

    When I try to update apps it says that I need to update to iOS 6 or later. When I try to update it says that iOS 5.1.1 . How do I get the iOS updates I need so that I can update my apps?

    If you have the iPad 1 the highest iOS level it can be updated to is iOS 5.1.1. If App updates require iOS 6 or higher you will not be able to get them.

  • Edit an Excel file in Numbers '09 and save to Excel

    When I open an excel file with numbers and then make a change, I can't simply save the file by pressing command-s because that brings up the "saving as" dialog.
    Is there a reason why this is happening? Can't Numbers just overwrite the existing excel file?
    It's not a huge inconvenience buy an unnecessary one.

    Like most applications, Numbers assumes you want to save in the native format for that application. If you want to open, edit and save in MS Excel format, logic would suggest that your best course would be to use MS Excel.
    That said, it's probably possible to write an AppleScript that would perform the steps necessary to do what you want with only a single menu choice needed.
    Or you could export (rather than Save) the file. That's a menu choice plus three click process, though.

  • Automatcially Execute Report (with input parametrs) and Save to Excel/PDF

    I have an SSIS package that does this in SQL 2008 R2 by means of a Script Task that uses ReportExecution2005. I cannot get this to work in SQL2012. It the script builds without error but reports a compile error when I close the Script Task, with the dreaded
    red X in the Control Flow window.
    It has occurred to me that perhaps I can do the same thing using SSRS Web Service, supplying the necessary information in the URL. I know how to supply parameter values and tell it to render in Excel (or PDF) format but user action is still required to
    save the file. Is there a way to provide an output file name in the URL so that the file is automatically saved without even displaying the report?
    I an also looking at PowerShell/ReportExcution2005 as an option and will raised separate post on that subject.
    R Campbell

    Hi Dick Campbell,
    According to your description, you want to export report to Excel/PDF from the a web site and save it without displaying the report, if that is the case, we can use ReportExcution2005.asmx as the report rendering web service.
    SQL Server Reporting Services is essentially implemented as a set of Web services, commonly referred to as SOAP API. In order to use the endpoints from Visual Studio, please refer to the following steps:
    Add Web reference to the endpoints.
    Then we need to initialize the report by calling the LoadReport() method.
    If the report contains parameters, we need to declare and populate an array of ParameterValue objects. Once the parameters are set up, we can call the SetExecutionParameters() method and pass them in rsExec.SetExecutionParameters(executionParams, "en-us").
    Call the Render() method. This method renders the report and returns it as a byte array that we can save into a file.
    The following code is for your reference:
    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.Linq;
    using System.Web;
    using System.Web.UI;
    using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

    using System.IO;
    namespace WebApplication3
    public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    ReportExecutionService rsExec = new ReportExecutionService();
    rsExec.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
    rsExec.Url = "http://servername/ReportServer/reportexecution2005.asmx";
    string historyID = null;
    string reportPath = "/multi-value parameter/sub";
    rsExec.LoadReport(reportPath, historyID);
    ReportExecution2005.ParameterValue[] executionParams;
    executionParams = new ReportExecution2005.ParameterValue[1];
    executionParams[0] = new ReportExecution2005.ParameterValue();
    executionParams[0].Name = "group";
    executionParams[0].Value = "Europe";
    new ReportExecution2005.ParameterValue();
    rsExec.SetExecutionParameters(executionParams, "en-us");
    string deviceInfo = null;
    string extension;
    string encoding;
    string mimeType;
    ReportExecution2005.Warning[] warnings = null;
    string[] streamIDs = null;
    string format = "Excel";
    Byte[] results = rsExec.Render(format, deviceInfo, out extension, out mimeType, out encoding, out warnings, out streamIDs);
    FileStream stream = File.OpenWrite("c:\\Users\\Reports\\report.xlsx");
    stream.Write(results, 0, results.Length);

  • Upload and save an Excel file from a local machine to SAP

    I am looking for a transaction which allows me to upload an Excel file from a local machine to SAP and save this file (the users should be able to edit the file in SAP afterwards).
    Then I would like to open and read the data from the file with the help of a function module which works as a background job.
    Unfortunately, I cannot use the application server because our users do not have the authorization to save files on it. Besides, the application server is not able to process Excel files.
    Thank you in advance.

  • Any limitation on number of fill and print forms I can post on my website and have external users with Reader fill in, print and mail to me? (I don't need/want them to be able to fill and save data.)

    I would like to post fillable only forms to the public but not give them the option to save or email the filled in form. If they want a copy of what they've filled in, they must print it.
    I believe I can do this by just creating a fillable PDF and posting it without adding any reader extension capabilities. I also believe there is no limitation, as there is for fill and save forms as per this other post I read: Adobe Acrobat X Pro * Enable Reader users to save form data.
    My IT department is telling me they will not allow me to post fillable PDFs online due to a "license limitation" so I started researching this myself, and the above link is the only thing I've found. While that post specifically outlines the limitations on saving filled in forms, I'm really looking for something that specifically tells me that there is no limitation on fillable, non-saveable (yes, I know that's not a word...) forms.
    If anyone can provide additional information for me, I'd appreciate it. Or, if I'm completely wrong in my belief and there's a limitation either way, feel free to set me straight. I'd rather know the correct answer than be right!
    Thanks!!

    If you don't Reader-enable a document, then there are no licensing restrictions involved. Note that Reader 11 and all versions of Acrobat are able to save non-enabled forms, unlike previous versions.
    The question should not be whether a form is savable, but rather whether you used Acrobat to add usage rights to the form AND you (the licensee) plan on receiving filled-in instances (including hardcopies) of it. The simplest way is to not Reader-enable the form and convince your users to use Reader 11 (or Acrobat) if they want to save.
