Incomplete/Inaccurate Functional Table of Contents
I created my new template based on Apple's 'Contemporary' iba template. By doing so, I must have deleted some formating: My E-book has been rejected from iBookstore several times by now, because of the 'table of contents' issue. I may assume, it is because the section headings have no blue border anymore. If I chose the virgin Apple template and start typing in a new section heading text, the whole selection heading text has a blue border - but not in my modified template. How can I turn back to the blue bordered section heading, in order to correct that TOC issue?
Finally, I had to start from scratch: take the original Apple template and modifiy the two, three points important to my own 'corporate identity', save it as iba template and start copying-pasting contents from the messed-up old document into the new one. I am pritty sure, this will solve not only the TOC isue but also the version number issue and eventually the portrait view TOC issue...
(b.t.w. These blue frames can easily be deleted and do not re-appear if all the framed characters have been deleted once. Some formating is far far away to normal users.)

Why is my book rejected because of the table of contents?
Why is my book rejected because of the table of contents?
I have submitted a chidlren's book, so there are not multiple chapters. There is only one "chapter" which is teh entire 40-page book.
IBook Author automatically creates a table of contents, which just has one chapter.
When I click on the chapter, it does not go to the next page. So once someone downloads the book from ibook, they are stuck on the table of contents page.
That seems to be a big reason for why it is getting rejected, although the actual text is cryptic:
6.1.4. Incomplete/Inaccurate Functional Table of Contents
The EPUB's spine in the NCX is used to create the table of contents in iBooks and provides a direct navigational link to the appropriate sections of the book. Since it is a key element to the customer's interaction with a book, all EPUB spines must contain a complete listing of all chapters or book sections.If you know what makes it not work....fix it.
The text is simply picked out from the nearest applicable cause. -
How to include in table of contents the list of figures and list of tables?
How to include in table of content the "Table of contents", "List of figures" and "List of tables"? All are generated with function Table of contents, but they will not appear in generated table of contents even if they have proper style of headings - Heading 1, as other chapter.
I get this in generated Table of contentes of my dissertaion thesis:
Table of contents
Preface
Table of contents <- missing
List of tables <- missing
List of figures <- missing
Introduction
Main
Conclusion
Is it ok, that generated lists are not included in table of contents?You've just confused me.
My understanding of how this is set up is that either:
This is a book, and there is a master TOC that includes all book documents and a document-specific TOC in each component file, or
This is a single file and there is one master TOC that includes all sections and a section-specific TOC that includes only the individual section.
In the first case, I think you would want two TOC styles set up, one that includes the chapter heads (if I understood how you said this worked) for the for the master, and you would include all docs in the book when you generate it, and a second style for the individual chapters, with the subheadings you want to include.
In the second case, it would be similar, but instead of only one style to cover the section TOCS, I think you would need to create a unique set of pargraph styles for the headings in each section (they can all be the same format, based one section, just with unique names), and then make a TOC style for each section that includes only the styles from that section.
OK, wait a sec. I just reread what you said: "Another thing: when the numbers are "linked" and updating well, they display indide a little box. Not a text box, but a kind of little frame around the numbers. That frame makes it imposible to delete just one number: when the TOC says that Section 6.1 is in page 135, for example, you cannot delete just the 5, it deletes, not just the 3 numbers, but also the doted tab."
I think these are NOT normal TOCs created by using Layout > TOC (but you could replace them with ones that are, if you set up your styles properly and the text you want to include is appearing on the pages). Those little boxes you mention sound like cross-references, which should update automatically without any intervention at all. Unfortunately, cross-refs can be flakey, especially if they point to another document. I'd open the cross-refs panel and see if you need to recreate a bunch of links. -
PDF/A results in non-functional links in Table of Contents -- Normal?
Hey,
Got a quick Q here - I recently converted a .docx into the PDF/A 1-b (2005) standard, but for whatever reason, save the computer that did the actual conversion, the links in my Table of Contents no longer function.
If I use Preflight to remove the PDF/A tag, the links work OK. Is there something about PDF/A that removes linking functionality that I'm not aware of? These links on my document simply move to different parts of the document, nothing too fancy.
Thanks.Hmmm. I hadn't heard of this limitation. Indeed, http://www.pdfa.org/2011/08/pdfa-–-a-look-at-the-technical-side/ says "With regard to hyperlinks, the special ‘Link’ annotation type is permitted with or without activated ‘Appearance’. " Maybe this document is being generated with a different kind of annotation.

I am hoping someone can help me or has experienced the same problem I'm about to describe. I belong to the technical publications group of a fairly large company and I review a lot of PDF documents. I just installed Acrobat 9.0.0 (via CS4 Design Standard) and I've noticed on larger documents where there's a full page or several pages worth of Table of Contents, Acrobat 9.0.0 seems to freeze up when I begin scrolling through the TOC. For example, if I want to use the Text Edit tools or use a sticky note, when I press on an icon, Acrobat will freeze for a good 10 seconds, then will allow you to press the icon. It tends to freeze each time I want to make my next edit or even pressing the up/down arrow buttons to go to the next page. Once I get through the TOC pages, Acrobat seems to function normally--no freezes.
Has anyone experienced this? Would appreciate any kind of advice on how to fix--perhaps there's a patch or update?
I didn't experience any of this using Acrobat 8.0--I never had any real problems with Acrobat until 9.0.0.Your issue may not be related to a difference between v8 and 9.
I have not had this problem on my computers, but a coworker had this issue. For many documents that others were able to open and scroll through without issue, his computer was freezing and unfreezing. IT determined his graphics capabilities were not able to keep up with the requirements of working with larger documents and gave his computer a RAM upgrade and a new graphics card. Particularly during scrolling, higher demands are made on the computer to graphically render and re-render page content. Documents giving him problems before became a non-issue.
A new graphics card is obviously a $$$ solution, but you might want to check to see if your RAM meets the minimum requirements and check to see if there are any program updates (Help > Check for Updates).
I have had an issue of pdfs freezing, but not specifically in the table of contents areas. If your document has pages with images that have an unusually high number of layers, it may affect the ability to work effectively in the document. -
Hey Everyone! First post ever, so bear with me:
I'm trying to create a streamlined method to use a form to let myself and others add information and select certain options to put together a custom table of contents. Basically, I would like to have a form with a series of text fill and single/multiple choice options that will automatically populate a table of contents based on the selections and will link to other .pdf files that are associated with the selections. I was hoping this would be possible with a form, but I'm relatively new to the function of the software as a whole and my research came up short. Any suggestions on how to start are more than welcome, and if I wasn't quite clear enough I would be happy to elaborate.
Thanks for your time!You would need to search for other PDF creation software that can accomplish what you desire.
There are many cheaper PDF creation alternatives other than Adobe's Acrobat Pro software.
Also, try doing a web search under these terms to see if you can find an app/software/solution that may work for you.

Microsoft Word-Table of Contents-Update Page Numbers
I am having trouble updating my page numbers within the Table of Contents in a Microsoft Word document. On a Windows machine, I would click to the left of the table and then click F9. On an Apple, that adjusts the brightness of the screen or modifies the screen if I accompany the F9 with the Apple or Function button. Does anyone know how to update the page numbers without creating a new Table of Contents?
LisaIn Mac OSX it is possible to change or create keyboard shortcuts for all applications as well as the system itself.
Go to +System Preferences > Keyboard and Mouse > Keyboard shortcuts+
Select the menu item for whatever application, in this case Dock, Exposé and Dashboard, click on the keyboard shortcut and change it to whatever you would like.
It will then work the next time you launch the application. If it is a menu item the name of the shortcut must match the menu name exactly. -
How do I add a table of contents to a PDF document created through iBooks?
I've been working on a iBook for a while for work and it functions great on an iPad. However, when I publish it as a PDF there is no table of contents. Is there a way to have the table of contents displayed automatically for the book? I dont mind if it's just a table of contents list like in a Word document, but the PDF file is very difficult if it's over 800 pages with no table of contents.
Update on what I did:
So instead of having an automatically generated template, I created a table of contents for each section on the chapter title slide. This table has 3 columns, Section, Topic and Page and then I use that as a reference guide for users who only use the PDF version of the document. There is no way to have interactive reference links in table elements in iBook but it suits the purpose well. -
Hi there,
I have a Table of Contents web part which is great. Is there a way so it shows only top level sites and then one can expand or collapse any top level site to see/hide the subsites?
As of now it shows
HR Parent site
- HR sub site 1
- HR sub site 2
IT Parent site
- IT sub site 1
- IT sub site 2
What I want is
+ HR Parent site
+ IT Parent site
So one can expand or collapse on demand.
Any relevant JS/CSS/JQuery code?
Thank you so much.Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to expand or collapse the level site for the table of contents web part.
I have made a simple code demo below to achieve this scenario, you can refer to it.
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
var iconCollapse = "/_layouts/images/collapse.gif";
var iconExpand = "/_layouts/images/expand.gif";
$("div[id='WebPartWPQ2'] li ul").hide();
//ugly way
var $t = $("#WebPartWPQ2 div").children("ul").children("li").children("div");
$t.each(function(){
//console.log($(this).html());
$(this).attr("style", "float: right; margin-right: 297px; line-height: 8px;");
$(this).css("display","inline");
$("<a src=" + iconExpand + "></img>").insertBefore($(this));
$("a[class='min']").click(function()
var img = $(this).children();
//Traverse the DOM to find the child UL node
var subList = $(this).siblings().children('ul');
//Check the visibility of the item and set the image
var Visibility = subList.is(":visible")?img.attr('src',iconExpand):img.attr('src',iconCollapse);
//Toggle the UL
subList.slideToggle();
</script>
Note: Yous should change the Web part ID and the css style to fit your environment.
Thanks & Regards,
Jason

Dear colleagues at this forum,
This is my question, i have a big PDF file, 341 pages, another 500 pages, I want to make a table of content, and I read that this Program Debenu PDF Aerialist 12 as a plug-in for Adobe Acrobat does provide this solution, which allows you to quickly build a table of content, however the program is expensive at close to five hundred dollars, i wonder why has not Acrobat Professional put this service included in the program, if one can make a solution of Table of Content and Index, this would be great. Does Acrobat have this function already or do you think that I must buy this program. Yes one can make a table of contents using word program then entering it to the PDF file and linking each line of the table of contents with the relevant page, but this would take a long time, and the solution provided by Debenu sounds like good. I am looking for your advice as i do not know much in this field.
Best regards,
BacharAcrobat does not have this built in. Normally, the table of contents is prepared at the same time as the document, perhaps in Word, which will use heading styles to do it automatically. Then this is converted to PDF. It is very unusual to do this work late with a PDF, I guess this is why it is not a core Acrobat feature.

Which Acrobat 9 product? Table of Contents & Index "jump" to page
I would like to create a document in Microsoft Word 2008 for Mac (version 12.1.0) that will have a table of contents as well as an index. When I convert this document into a PDF format, I would like the table of contents as well as the index to be "active", in that the user will be able to click on a topic or index reference, and then jump automatically to that page in the PDF document. The PDF document will be loaded on my website.
Which Adobe Acrobat 9 product will provide this functionality?
Thanks!Margie,
There is not product that will do this for Microsoft word from Adobe on
a Mac. If MS Word 2008 has its own pdf capabilities, you might see if it
will do it on its own. BTW, there is only one Acrobat product on the
Mac---Acrobat Pro. There are several versions for Windows.

After reset Mail hangs w/spinning ball on "Reading table of contents"
This problem is on a 17" monitor Power PC G4, 256mb DDR SDRAM.iMac, half ball bottom, with Mail, with Systems 10.3.9
After Reset, Mail is hanging with the spinning beach ball on "Reading table of contents." Quite a few emails are being retrieved and placed in the Dock before the hang, and Mail responds to mouse commands up to the "hang." Then a Force Quit is the only way to proceed. Other programs run OK, with Mail "hung."
The reason for the Reset is that my daughter reads "fan fiction," and can go through a hundred pages in an hour, and the computer gets so plugged up that it takes FIVE MINUTES to retrieve, then display another Safari window. Empty Cache does not help. So, to get things back to normal, a reset is required. Something went wrong on this reset.
This happened once before, possibly with OS-X 10.2, and I was advised to delete a file somewhere deep in Systems, and Mail apparently made a "new" file and all was fine from then on. My "guess" is that Mail then makes a new "table of contents."
Anybody know what file to delete? Or any other advice? At the moment, I am getting Mail with another IMac, with System 10.2
iMac 17" "half ball bottom" 1 GHZ PowrPc G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)Hello Jean.
When you use the term "reset", are you referring to a
computer restart?
On this PowerPC with 10.3.9, what is the hard drive
capacity and available free space?
If the problem Inbox mailbox is for a POP type
account, with the Mail.app quit and using the Finder
go to Home > Library > Mail > this account named
folder (named by the user name and incoming mail
server for the account) > INBOX.mbox.
Move the INBOX.mbox to the Desktop.
Launch Mail and if successful, a new (and empty)
INBOX.mbox will be created automatically by Mail
within this account named folder when receiving the
next message with this account.
This should allow the Mail.app to function properly
again while working on the old INBOX.mbox move to the
Desktop to recover the existing messages.
Control-click on the old INBOX.mbox moved to the
Desktop and at the menu window that appears, select
Show Package Contents.
List the package content file names and size of
each here.
I have had the same problem as Jean - did what you advised and now find mail runs find but need to rescue the old mail.
This is the package content of my old inbox:
content index 36 kb
content_index-computername.local-372 10.9 MB
info.plist 4 kb
mbox 939.1 MB
tableofcontents 1.5 MB
hope you can help me...

Hi,
I want to add some space before and after the table cell content. I am using setIntercellSpacing() method to achieve that and I could get the required functionality. But its adding space in the Table Header also which looks odd. Is there any way to set the spacing only for the cell and not for the table header.
Let me know if anyone has solution for this.
Thanks and Regards,
R.Vishnu Varadhan.I find this behaviour of setIntercellSpacing() very annoying, too. Why the hell did the Swing developers implement it that way?
Nevertheless, you can create the desired effect by writing a custom cell renderer, but that is if course more work than that single method call. -
Cdparanoia 004: Unable to read table of contents header
Hi. I've been trying to rip wavs with grip but it was unable to locate any audio cd even though I could explore it from my desktop (xfce 4.10) and I am part of the optical group. Because of this, I tried running cdparanoia from the terminal.
Running the next command: cdparanoia -vsQ displays the next warning:

Unable to open disc. Is there an audio CD in the drive?
if I try to listen a track from an external application like mplayer it won't play any audio but if I manually locate the audio and choose them an application to play, they will. Also, the hardware itself is functional since I ripped music from a debian squeeze (dvd) installation.
Finally If it's useful, I used gvfs and exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch startxfce4 in my .xinitrc to mount usb and other devices automatically
Thanks in advanceYou removed all mailboxes (.mbox files) located within this problem account named folder at Home > Library > Mail and the same occurs when re-launching Mail?
The TableofContents file is a package file for a .mbox so it is hidden.
I'm not sure how you removed all mailboxes for this account but quit Mail first and using the Finder, go to Home > Library > Mail > this POP account named folder (named by the user name and incoming mail server for the account). Move the account named folder to the Desktop.
Launch Mail and if it launches successfully without locking up and quitting, a new account named folder will be created automatically by Mail within the account named folder.
All email clients have limits and the recommended size limit for a Jaguar or Panther mailbox is 1GB and for Tiger Mail, 2GB.
An "overstuffed" mailbox issue can occur at any mailbox size (which means the mailbox has some corruption and/or is over the recommended size limit) but is more likely to occur depending on the number and size of message attachments contained in a mailbox and especially as a Jaguar or Panther mailbox approaches or exceeds 1GB in size.
Since an account's Inbox mailbox is usually the most active mailbox, it is not a good idea to use an account's Inbox mailbox as the final storage location for all received messages not deleted.
