IPad and iBooks will not display pdf text in form fields.

I use pdf forms to create assignments for my students and would like to use the iPad to mark the assignments afterwards. I would use something like iAnnotate to add comments and text freehand but apparently the Apple's PDF rendering engine can not handle complex PDFs. Any thoughts?

I haven't installed it, but I seem to remember hearing that the adobe pdf reader app allows for people to enter forms. If that doesn't work, there should be other pdf reader apps that allow for forms to be utilized.

    Safari will not display pdf files uner Lion 10.8.2

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • IBooks will not sync PDF collections with my IPhone. It syncs the collection title but not the content?

    My IBooks will not sync PDF content with my IPhone. It syncs the collection title but no content. Both devices are set to sync collections? Any ideas how to fix this?

    The 'sync collections' setting does not copy books or PDFs between devices - all it does is if you have the book on both devices and you move it into a collection on one of them, then it will be put into the same collection on the other device.
    You will need to sync each PDF that you want on your phone. If you don't currently have them on your computer then connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over (that should copy PDFs and/or epubs that are in the iBooks app, not just actual ibooks), and if using a Mac with Mavericks on it do File > Move Books From iTunes in the iBooks app on it, and you can then sync them to your iPhone.

    Hello,
    If you're in a country where there's an apple shop (unfortunately not mine), go check it and ask the employee about it: he's gonna check your Iphone on a "device"
    I've got an iphone 5 and it's working very well with me but I have to admit that its battery lasts (slower) than my Ipad 2.
    Still i can help with some tips that may improve your iohone's battery by an hour in addition (hopefully):
    - close all apps by multitasking....
    - do NOT keep the brightness to the max
    Believe me you're gonna regret changing your phone to a samsung
    Hope i've helped and sorry for my bad english (has english as 3rd language)

    It got A new router today and wanted to turn on apple tv but my remote app on iPad and iPhone will not recognize apple tv. Btw- I do not have apple tv remote.

    It reboots it but unplugging can also rectify communication issues like this. A restore would be the next step.

  • I have just updated the i06 software for my ipad and it will not connect to my home wifi network - all my other devices are able to connect - i have tried all troubleshooting options and none have worked - please help

    I have just updated the i06 software for my iPad and it will not connect to my home wifi network - all my other devices are able to connect to my wifi network.
    I have attempted all troubleshooting actions suggested and nothing has worked. I have restored my iPad network and factory settings - Please help - this is frustrating me

    you have to set up your router to solve th problem. first find and write down the ipad mac address.
    then log on to your router using your laptop or any device that can connect to router at 192.168.0.1 in your web browser. please check out my posting about how to resolve the wifi connection problem.
    i think the ios6 update has reset the networking but if you set up the router then you should not have the same problem any more.

  • I have placed a photoshop file within a new picture and it will not display

    i have placed a psd file within a new psd file and it will not display.  It flashed on the screen for a moment and then disappeared, and no matter how many times I try, it will not show

    I started a new file, placed the image and the screen went into a bizarre pattern. I ended up closing the program and starting fresh and it worked properly.  Something went wonky during the session I guess.

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • IMovie for my iPad and iPhone will not export movies how do I fix this?

    iMovie for my iPad and iPhone will not export movies how do I fix this?

    Same here. Have exported a handful of movies before..faced this issue for the first time a few days ago. What footage are you trying to edit and export? (E.g. Shot with camera app, other social media apps like Snapchat, Vine, Instagram?)
    I did some troubleshooting..
    I was putting together all saved videos from Snapchat.. no luck. Export screen comes up, but progress bar doesn't move.
    Mixed some footage in there shot with actual iPhone camera app.. no luck.
    Removed all Snapchat footage.. it worked straight away.
    BUT ... it would make sense if I didn't just compile a bunch of Snapchat vids a few weeks ago and export them just fine?
    So it's something to do with the actual footage I assume?

  • Imac connects to time capsule through wifi but ipad and iphone will not connect

    I just installed the new Airport Time Capsule.  My Imac connects fine through wifi bit my ipad and iphone will not connect to the wifi.  They appear in the wifi settings in the devices but will not connect.  I have reset modem and time capsule and tried forget network and nothing is working.  ANy assistance would be appreciated.  Thanks

    So I called apple support being fairly certain that I wasn't going to be able to fix this over the phone but essentially, it now works flawlessly with my iOS devices. Here is what I did.
    I have a Motorola cable modem surfboard 6421.
    I reset my network settings to dhcp and NAT from the default bridge only mode which the tech said only allows one device to connect at a time. Considering my MBA was already connected to the AE, that would explain why my other iOS devices wouldn't connect. After I changed the settings for the network to DHCP and NAT, the router restarted. I then disconnected the power and coaxial cable from the cable modem and reconnected it and once everything came back up, all devices connected fine. Good throughout and signal. Hope this helps.

  • Installed ios 6 on new iPad and siri will not work.

    Good morning, I installed ios6 on the new iPad and siri will not work. Each time I try to use siri she says "uh oh, I'm having a problem. Please try again. I have tried turning siri off and back on again. Resetting the iPad, resetting the network, turning Airplane Mode off and on again. All to know avail. My iphone 5 works great and so does my wife's iphone 4s with ios6. I have called Apple support but there only suggestion was that the servers were busy. If that was the case my other devices would not work either. Plus the servers wouldn't be busy for four days. Any help anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated. I was looking forward to using siri on the new iPad and other folks don't seem to be having a problem.
    Thanks, and have a great day.

    Then you need to change your device details as this still says iPad2.
    It's very possible Apple's servers have been busy for 4 days as not everyone downloaded iOS 6 on the day it was announced. I downloaded it last Friday, myself, as an example.
    There are a millions and millions of people using Apple iDevices.
    Just because everything went fine with the iOS 6 updates of your iPhone 4 and 5 doesn't mean something couldn't have gone wrong with an update to your iPad3
    If the iOS update missed something during the download, I am not sure how to go about re-downloading iOS 6 to fix the issue you are having.
