On Droid MAXX, Can icons or shortcuts be created to open specific documents?

on Droid MAXX, Can icons or shortcuts be created to open specific documents?  I can open a program and open the files, but is there a way to create a shortcut or icon to launch it quicker?

    Fuzzy317,
I'm a huge fan of shortcuts myself and completely understand why you would want a shortcut to a document on your home screen. At this time the phone does not support that capability; however, there may be a third party app in the Play Store that will allow you to do this.

  • Can I set up safari to automatically open PDF documents in the pages app?

    Can I set up safari to automatically open PDF documents from the internet into the pages app?

    No - and you can't open pdf files in the Pages app on the iPad anyway as far as I know. You can export a Pages file as a pdf but you can't open them in Pages.

  • Text frames not supported and images can't be imported when trying to open word document, can this be fixed?

    trying to open a word document in pages, no images, diagram r tables are seen, states problems are text frames not supported and that images can not be imported. the document opens fine in mircosoft office. can this be fixed or do i need to buy microsoft office for the imac, thanks andrea

    Pages isn't a perfect converter of Word documents. They are differently coded. Some documents opens well but some don't.
    You could try opening the document in LibreOffice, a free clone of MS Office.

  • Acrobat 8 can't locate scanner to create PDF from printed document using OCR

    Hello,
    I have an Epson scanner that is my default scanner on my OSX (10.6).  Every program I have locates my scanner perfectly except Acrobat 8.0.  Is there something I can do?
    From the home dialogue box I click "Create PDF from Scanner".  The next dialogue box opens and the Tab "Please Select a Device" doesn't let me scroll to find my scanner.  So the scan button is greyed out and I can't do anything.  Is there something I can do to make Acrobat clearly find my scanner?

    Check to see if they have a Native (not universal Binary) Twain Driver. Adobe refuses to allow universal Binary Twain Drivers in their programs.
    Either use a Software package from the SANE/TWAIN Project. (look up on Google). Or use a Pakage Like SilverFast.
    Before downloading the SANE/Twain Driver you have to look and see if the have a package for your current  OS  and for your particular Scanner. Stayaway from the SDK's unless your a Programer.
    Then when you install all the pieces and set up open Acrobat and go to document Create PDF from Scanner choose SANE/Twain. Should be able to scan with it.
    If you use SliverFast it is a standalone package  Just scan and save as a PDF then open in Acrobat.  or save as a Tiff or jpeg. Acrobat hasn't worked with a scanner since Macs went from OS9  to OSX.

  • Can't cut and paste from an Open Office document to my email

    I'm trying to cut and paste a document in Open Office into the body of an email. I have Firefox 26.0 and Windows 8.

    Thank you very much for your help but it didn't work. After I copied my text and switched to my email in Firefox, there was no option to choose "paste" into the body of the email. Could it be that this is because I'm using Open Office for word processing instead of Microsoft? I'm a very LOW teach guy!

  • Trying to use hangouts for sms on verizon droid maxx but "can't compose"

    I'm trying to use hangouts for SMS on my Verizon Droid Maxx but the message "Can't compose. No default SMS app." displays when I try to compose (+") a new message, even though the top of the screen says that "Hangouts is your SMS app".  What do I need to do?

        Good Afternoon, dgcaskey,
    I love my Hangouts application. Let's see if we can get this up and running for you. Have you been able to use this application before? Or did you just installed this app onto your phone? Have you been able to delete the application off the phone and redownload it? When you receive a text message does it come in through the Hangouts app or the normal stocked application that is on the phone? Please keep us posted.

    How can I create text templates or automatic responses on my Droid Maxx?

        @dannybedo
    I can understand the need to quickly reply to text messages without having to type the entire message.  The Motorola Droid Maxx comes with a feature called "Motorola Assist" that allows you to perform these tasks.  See more details on page 22 in the Device User Manual here: http://vz.to/1wW6P3B.

  • Can't delete e-mail on droid maxx

    How do I delete unsent e-mails on my Droid Maxx

    Thank you for your reply
    I finally went down to a Verizon store and they were able to remove the 2 failed sent messages.  1 problem solved then I asked about another one that has come about, I am unable to connect my Droid to my PC by way of USB cable, when I took it into the store they made a few adjustments and said that it should work just fine now, Still getting the same message DEVICE MALFUNCTION can't install drives  for device, so I went into Youtube and looked at quite a few how to videos and downloaded a few suggested driver packs and still nothing.  There is alot of music on my old flip phone that I wanted to transfer over to my Droid MAXX .  I am 55 years old and not used to these new fangled things so any help would be very welcome.
    Thank You Mel

  • My Droid Maxx deleted all my text messages by itself. I had all of them, got a phone call, and when I got off the call, all my texts where gone. Is there a way I can get them all back?

    My Droid Maxx deleted all my text messages by itself. I had all of them, got a phone call, and when I got off the call, all my texts where gone. Is there a way I can get them all back? I had a lot and some where really important to me. I turned the phone off and on again thinking that would bring them back because of some glitch but it didn't help. Does anyone know of a way to bring them all back?

    It's very possible to get your messages back. Verizon Messages (app) from the Play Store has options both to restore and back up your messages. They can be downloaded as a file and saved on the device or SD card. By pulling the menu out from the left side and choosing "Restore Conversations", you can (hopefully) restore your lost messages but it says for 90 days. I hope this doesn't reach you too late.

  • Can't activate DROID Maxx

    My DROID Maxx arrived in the mail yesterday, and I was unable to activate it.  I turned off my old phone, turned off everything on my old phone that uses data, and I was still unable to active my DROID with four bars.  Is there any sort of online activation that I can use when I have the DROID plugged into my PC, or is there something else I can do to activate it? Thanks
    -Chris

    Plugging the Droid Maxx into the computer is not going to activate it. On the Verizon website after you sigh in. Scroll down to a column on the lower left where you'll see Activate or Switch Device. You might be able to activate from there, on two previous occasions it didn't work for me, but you may have better luck.
    If that doesn't work you're gonna have to call them. But you can't call them from your old phone while the account of that old phone is still active, you'll need to use another phone. If you stop by a Verizon store they'll surely activate it for you very quickly. You're gonna like the Droid Maxx.  Goodluck

  • Can't use MotoCast on my new Droid Maxx

    I just upgraded from a Droid 4 to the Droid Maxx. I tried downloading the MotoCast app but it says it is not compatible with my phone. I am looking for a substitute. I want a super easy way to auto upload my photos to from my phone to computer. I know I can use Drive/Dropbox/cloud programs to transfer them to a folder on my computer, but not automatically. I have to go in, select all/new photos on my phone, and then hit upload. Does anyone know how I can streamline this process so it auto saves my phones pics on my computer whenever I am in range. I really really really miss that about motocast. 

        There's lots of great options to pick from to back up your media, CelesMaria. The best I'd suggest is Verizon Cloud. Not only can you move files from your phone to computer or computer to phone, but the backup will automatically occur daily. For more information about this program, visit http://vz.to/1uLq7Zv.
