Is there a way to upload a dictionary generated for the XOS Dictionary App to the hidden dictionary app of iPad or iPhone, respectively?

Dear All,
I started to generate on my MacBook, with the Tools provided with XCode 5, to generate a dictionary for the Dictionary App which runs fine on my Max OSX machines. Now I wonder if there is a way to upload the dictionary to the hidden dictionary app of iOS to use the dictionary on iPad and iPhone via the "define"-option of highlighted words. All of curse under the assumption both applications use the same dictionary formate, what I guess since both outputs look very similar. The hidden app of iOS downloads dictionaries somehow from iCloud as the cloud symbol suggests. But does anyone know how to upload dictionaries to there e.g. from a MacBook to be able to download it subsequently with iPad or iPhone in the "manage"-Mode of the hidden dictionary app?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions,
Juergen

SOLVED!!!!!
This is the app:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dictionary.appender/id650562573?mt=8
I emailed the maker of the app and he said to just follow these instructions:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4094
File share the .dictionary file to your ipad and then add it from the list of addable languages.  It took a minute for it to show up on my ipad but it DID work.  It is working with iBooks. 
Happy reading.
Thanks for the help and suggestions.

  • Is there a way to create a fade only for the first loop?

    I have a loop (Modern Guitar Rock 04), which I've extended out so it repeats four times. I select the Fade Tool and X-Fade for drag. I then drag just in front of the loop and onto it, which creates a fade. However, this also creates fades at the beginning of the repeating loops. Is there a way to create a fade only for the first loop?

    The loop function always repeats the same region so of course the fade is also copied. So option+drag the original region to make a (non clone) copy, fade the first region and loop the second one (which you just copied).

  • Is there any way I can get more fonts for the online photoshop?

    I know that this might sound a bit silly since I'm getting the services for free, but I was just curious if there was a way I could get more fonts for the online version. Maybe I'd be better off with the full program. Just curious! (:

    When you say online version, do you mean you are using the Creative Cloud trial?
    Photoshop accesses fonts on your computer, so all you have to do is purchase or download free ones from a fonts website.
    Here is a website with reasonably high quality free fonts: http://www.fontsquirrel.com/.
    Good luck!

  • Is there a way to create a commentary file for the summary screen?

    I am not seeing the summary screen in the list of commentary files in the \Development\include\commentary\en-CA\screen path. Is there a way to create a commentary for the summary screen?
    Thanks all.

    thanks Kristy,
    I'm not sure of the best way to add any requests we have for future releases.
    If there is one, let me know what is best.
    Here is what I want to add.
    In the properties file, one can set decision report preferences for an attribute - for invisible and silent.
    I wish we could also set preferences for bold, and given that, I guess it makes sense to be able to set preferences for italic and underline
    While these can be addressed through custom properties and XSLT, it obviously would be easier for the modeler to be able to select the attribute enhancement in the properties file. Given that decision reports can get very long, and there are attributes which might be better highlighted in some way, this would be a great approach.

  • Is there a way to use iMessage but not have the texts sync to my iPad or other devices, just stay on my iPhone?

    I don't like when things from my phone sync to my iPad or iPod, so I am wondering if there is a way to keep the texts on my phone and off of everything else.  I share my iPad with others and don't want to be in the middle of a conversation when all of a sudden it just appears while someone else is using the iPad.  In addition, I don't want the messages to syn to the computer when I plug my phone in, as I also share the computer with others.  This has kept me from using iMessage because of how iCloud works, but maybe I just don't have a good understanding of how they work and someone can clear it up for me.  Thanks.

    I don't even see the iMessage option on my iPad anywhere. Maybe it needs to be updated?
    Does this have anything to do with iCloud or just iMessage?

  • Is there a way to force 1.28 voltagae for the ram on the w520 i7 quad. 2760qm

  • Is there a way to have a search form for the CRM database?

    I know there is a search form provided for the Web Apps. I can't seem to find how to create a search form for the CRM database. I have created a membership site, and also extended the CRM database with additional fields. I would like the users to be able to search on selected fields in the CRM database including the extended database fields. For example, I have a field called membership type in the extended database. I would like to be able to search on that in a search form. Is that possible?
    Thanks

    Sidney,
    Your input is very helpful to put me on the track to find a workaround. As I tried using Web App approach, I get into a road block that hopefully you can help throw some light on.
    This my scenerio: I created a Web App for holding the profile fields (called it Profile). I created a Page to display the Customer record (Names, usernames, email, etc, and I would also want to display the fields from the Profile Web App. I am at lost how to do that. Seems like I can only insert the web item list in that page but I actually want to display the Detall Layout instead of the List layout. To display the Detail Layout, I need to first manually choose the item before it will direct me to the Detail layout. I am trying to find a way to do this automatically based on the fact I have only one Profile web app item for each customer.
    The question is whether there is a way to pull up a specific Profile web app item based on the customer's id or something that link the two together, using javascript or whatever method. Is there a tag to gives me the customer record id? If I can get that id, I could insert that id into one of the fields in the Profile Web App during creation of profile. Perhaps I can then pull up the profile item based on this id.
    Thanks for all the help

  • Is there a way to scan a device/network for the key that's in use? (even if a partial)

    We have a way of keeping our installs of acrobat to the same number of actual purchases made, but what we don't have is a good way of making sure that the actual key that was acquired with a PO was actually used on the associated device. Most of this comes from poor management of licenses and lazy technicians that used any key they could find to install the software. So, our reseller provides us a list of all keys that we've purchased as well as the number of volume licenses and such. I would like to know if there is a way I can scan the acrobat-installed devices and compare keys against the list of keys I have been provided. I have about ~100 devices with varying versions ranging from 6 to 11. I'm shooting for having a list of hostnames with their purchased license key and a faster way of creating this list than manually going to each machine.
    I want to do this so that I can more easily automate Hardware/OS migrations.  If the product is installed with the wrong key, I want to have it reinstalled on the new hardware/OS with the correct key.  And also just to have better bookkeeping.
    Or can I just keep using the volume key for a product version as long as I keep the install count at or under the purchased count?
    We use Symantec Management Platform 7.5 for tracking.

    Not directly that I am aware.  The product validation in SWTAG files are encoded.  Adobe should be able to decode them but that's still going to be a lot of manual work.

  • Is there a way to set two different settings for the backlight?

    I was wondering if there is a way for me to set the backlight to always on when watching videos on my 5G 30 gig iPod and off when doing anything else?
    Or do I have to manually go in and change the setting everytime?

    The backlight will always be on when watching videos. This is automatic, regardless of the setting.

  • Is there a way to up forward a suggestion for the next software update?

    I had my iphone stolen the other night and I was just wondering if we can put forward a suggestion towards the next software update.
    I've been thinking that you should only be able to turn the phone off if the phone is unlocked (if there is a passcode lock then you should have to enter this before being able to turn the phone off)
    If a phone is stolen the first thing people do is turn the phone off, but if this isn't so easy to do then people may still be able to find their phone using the find my iphone app which can only be used when phone is on
    Hop someone can help, thanks

  • Is there any way to combine multiple Apple IDs for the same individual?

    I have two Apple IDs, one of which has a .mac email address. Both have the same name and physical address. With the new iTunes and the coming iCloud, it would be convenient to combine the two for purchase history and access, app updates, etc.
    How can I do this?

    So far it seems you can't.
    The only thing that becomes a problem would be purchase history I guess, but you can use Home Sharing in iTunes on your computer to share any purchases from one account to the other.
