One window - multiple documents

Acrobat 8 had a Preference in Documents "
Show Each Document in its own Window". This is now not
available in Acrobat 9 - to which I just upgraded this morning.
THIS IS NO IMPROVEMENT.
Now I have tons of "Adobe Reader" objects in the Windows
taskbar, and I don't know which is which document! Does anyone have
a solution to this terrible change in functionality?
TIA

Ability to view multiple files in ONE window

I can see here that this is not a new topic really but the thing with Acrobat 9 is so frustrating that it is just unbelievable.
This is another pearl:
Acrobat 9 "lost" its predecessors ability to view multiple files in ONE window. After opening four only documents I cannot see anything on the screen because the toolbars on each individual window cover all necessary view and nothing is left for the actual document. And sometimes I need to open 20 documents!
This is ABSOLUTE DISASTER!!!
I found some explanations from Adobe on the Web that are more than a year old.
I was sure that by now this unfortunate mishandling of that feature (apparently it was dropped out from A9 deliberately - WHO'S IDEA WAS THAT?) would be somehow restorable.
Would anyone happen to know if this feature can get restored to how it was working in A7 or 8 (without the need to uninstall A9 and install A8)?

No, it can't be restored, unless Adobe decides to change the way Acrobat works (which is possible, but not likely).
By the way, it was Microsoft's idea... Adobe were just following their example on this.

How do I view multiple images in one window?

How do I view multiple images in one window? I want to compare images side by side, not in tabs.

Thank you, Barbara. I found that I had to close the program after I turned on "allow floating documents" and restart, before I was able to go to "float all in windows".

Applying menu window options to multiple documents

Hi,
I wonder if someone can help me with a problem.
We need to open a menu item (it's actually an extension, not native to ID) set the options we need within that window, then apply that to multiple documents. Is there a simple way to script this (it's a language I don't speak yet!)? I have found various batching scripts but these only open all the documents and the menu window one after another, so you have to re-set your options in the window every time.
Thanks

If there isn't a scripting way to do this, does anyone know of any extensions that would allow you to do this?

No staggered windows with XCode 3 in a Cocoa multiple document application

I want to release a new version of an application that I developed using the Cocoa multiple document framework. With XCode 2.x when I opened new document windows they were staggered so that the user could see that there was more than one document open. Since I switched to XCode 3, new document windows are created at the same location on the screen and new ones cover the older ones. I liked the old way. I can't find anything about this in the documentation or release notes. Is this the new way to do this according to the Human Interface Guidelines or a bug or what?

I see that part of my problem is terminology. The term for exposing new windows is cascading. It is possible to tell a document's window controllers to cascade its windows when initializing an NSDocument subclass like this:
- (void) windowControllerDidLoadNib:(NSWindowController *) aController
[super windowControllerDidLoadNib: aController];
NSArray* myDocWindowControllers = [self windowControllers];
int numControllers = [myDocWindowControllers count];
unsigned int controllerNumber = 0;
while(controllerNumber < numControllers){
NSWindowController* theWindowController = [myDocWindowControllers objectAtIndex: controllerNumber];
[theWindowController setShouldCascadeWindows: YES];
controllerNumber ++;
}

How do you highlight multiple documents rapidly, rather than having to click on the document and on "command" one at a time?

How do you highlight multiple documents rapidly, rather than having to click on the document and on "command" one at a time? Right now, when I'm trying to highlight documents to export, I have to click on each document individually. Is there a way to highlight one document while scrolling down the list until all desired documents are highlighted? I would like to rapidly be able to do this to save time when I am exporting or saving multiple files from my documents to an external drive, CD-Rom or cloud storage.

Click on the first item
Hold the Shift key
Click on the Last Item.
All the items in between will be selected.

Need Help backing up multiple iOS devices to one Windows PC computer

So, first off, let me say that I have been scouring these forum posts as well as reading many google search results for what I am about to ask here, but I have not been able to find a definitive answer as to go about what I am trying to accomplish.
Some background – we are using 2 iphones both using the same Apple ID. We have no need to create separate Apple IDs as this has been working just fine for us for the past 3-4 years. Everything from text messaging, facetime, to purchases I have setup just the way we like it and we have no issues with anything conflicting.
So, here goes.
I would like to use one Windows computer using the same user account on said PC to be able to backup both my iphone and my wifes iphone.
Here is the issue I am running into. I have used iTunes to backup my wifes iphone and all went as expected. What I then tried to do was plug my iphone into the computer and attempt to backup my iphone but problem is, I get only the option to setup the phone as new or restore from my wifes backup, neither of which I want to do.
So, I thought about using the trick to create another library by holding down the Shift Key while starting iTunes and then selecting Create new library. But when I then plug in my iphone and fire up and select the newly created library to backup my iphone to, I still get only get the option to either setup as new or backup from my wifes iphone.
Am I doing something wrong when creating this new library or is what I am trying to do not possible.
I know I can create another user account on the PC and the backup will then work just fine as I had to do it this way for a family member because I could not get the second library option to work the way I am trying to make it work.
In this post I created, https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6652211 I got no responses that helped me figure this out.
So, if anyone can set me straight on how to use iTunes to backup my devices using the same PC user account with all Apple devices using the same Apple ID I would greatly appreciate it.
Step by step would really be helpful if it is at all possible.
- Dan

There are experts here with far greater knowledge than I
but here goes
This is where windows stores the iTunes back up files
Windows Vista and Windows 7:
\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
So - if you cut the file and paste it elsewhere (Desktop or Documents or a flash drive) - will the iTunes be fooled into creating a second one?
Of course you would have to label them well in case you need to retrieve them later - but I guess worth a try
If it does not work you can always plop the prior files back to where you pinched them from
Please let us know
Thanks

Can't play multiple movies in one window

I must be doing something wrong. I wanted to watch a series of video clips (all .mov) in quicktime, but not in 10 different windows. Isn't there a way to highlight 10 clips, and then "play all" and have them open up in one window? For some reason, every time I attempt this, I get 10 quicktime players opening up! I'd just like one at a time, and the ability to skip to through the movies like I would do in iTunes with music. I seem to remember doing this before, but now can't remember how. Any ideas?

The steps are correct but you've left out the one that adjusts the 2 through 9 movies position as compared to the others.
The first video would hold a position of 0,0 (upper left). When you add the second video you need to adjust its "offset" to position it next to but not overlapping the first. Since your videos are 100X75 you would set the offset of the second track too 100,0 (100 pixels to the right of the original and 0 pixels different in height). The third would be 200,0 offset.
On the second row your first file would be 0,75 (75 pixels below the upper video). The second file on the second row would be offset 100,75 and the third would be 200,75.
The third row would be 0,150 followed by 100,150 and 200,150.
You could add a slight "border" between each video and give it a color by using the bgcolor="your color" (standard html color codes) and adding that space by adjusting the offset plus your border width in pixels. Hollywood Squares style of video.
http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/03war/ one of my older files that uses multiple track video playback of a QuickTime file. The "TV" set is a track and the video that plays "inside" it is another. The still image movies are also separate tracks and QuickTime .mov files can hold up to 99 tracks.

View Multiple PDFs in tabs in ONE window in ADOBE 9

OK...so after hours of uninstalling and reinstalling adobe 9 to get past adobe's multiple error messages and running CHCKDSK and Windows registry cure I finally get Adobe reader 9 to work, only to find out that
I can not view multiple pdf's in one window in tiled tabs. Basically I need to have several pdf's open in one window in adobe. I'm a student and writer and deal with multiple e-books at once for dissemination and I do not want them open in multiple windows, just one window with multiple tabs.
In adobe 8 this option was in preferences. It does not exist in adobe 9. I can not have all these pdfs open in different windows, I want multiple pdfs to open in one window.
This has been a very frustrating evening dealing with adobe 9. I wish I would have never installed it in the first place. I probably won't be buying 9 pro, its pretty crazy that there are all these frustrations. This whole thing with the Error 2330.Error getting file attributes C:\Program Files\AdobeReader 9.0 GetLastError:1392 which I finally fixed myself and then to find that there is not any way to view multiple pdf's in one adobe 9 window--at least according to what can be found here on adobe, I'm just in tears. I'm not a technical person and I have things due on monday. This is very frustrating.

The change is due to Adobe's following Microsoft's user interface
guidelines. I would recommend getting MS to change its tune.

In 4.0.1, if I have multiple firefox windows open, when I try to close one window, it closes all. Why can't I close just one window at a time?

I open multiple Firefox windows so that I can quickly Alt+Tab between windows instead of using my mouse to point to tabs. When I close one of my Firefox windows, the browser closes all my windows. What happen to the "Close" feature under the File tab? Why don't I have the option to close only one window at a time?

I don't understand what happened above, but ericn1, wasn't your problem that you tried to close one browser window using the red X, and ALL of them closed? How did any of the above help you solve your problem? jscher2000 gave you alternate methods of closing windows but said that closing a window with the red X "should" work. It doesn't work, because it is closing ALL your windows, not just the one you are clicking on. I am now having the same problem. with Firefox.
Understand I do not have the problem with any other program. In other words, I can open multiple windows in Paint Shop Pro, IE, Notepad, etc. and close one with the red X and all others remain open. It ONLY happens when using the Firefox browser.
The red X should close only the window that you are in when you click on it.
NOW, before someone suggests tabs, I don't like them and don't use them. My choice. Before someone says my browser is out-of-date, (3.6.13) I am using it because it was the last version that worked reliably on my computers, both at home (Windows 7 Professional) and my office (Windows XP Professional).
When I updated to the last Firefox browser, both computers started seizing up (nothing worked and had to reboot using power button) Removing that version of Firefox and going back to this version solved that problem. Fact remains, version has little to do with this problem. I've seen other posts around the net about this with different (newer) versions of Firefox.
So . . . does anyone have a solution to this that doesn't involve using keystrokes or hot keys to close windows instead of the red X that should work properly?

Open multiple websites in one window

I would like to open multiple websites in one window with multiple tabs using VBA in Excel. My present code opens each website in a separate window.
Sub Weather()
' Look at weather websites
    Dim URL As String
    Dim ie As Object
    URL = "http://cleardarksky.com/c/AnaheimCAkey.html?1"
    Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
    ie.Visible = True
    ie.navigate URL
    Set ie = Nothing
    URL = "http://www.goes.noaa.gov/GSSLOOPS/wcir.html"
    Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
    ie.Visible = True
    ie.navigate URL
    Set ie = Nothing
    URL = "http://www.weather.com/weather/hourbyhour/l/92886:4:US"
    Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
    ie.Visible = True
    ie.navigate URL
    Set ie = Nothing

    Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
    ie.Visible = True
    ie.navigate URL
    Set ie = Nothing
End Sub

Hi,
It depends on your popup blocker (built-in or Addon toolbar), tabbed browser settings and IE security settings.
See general tab of Internet Options, Tabs button.
you can specify a target parameter in the navigate method to reuse the one IE window and open each site in a new tab (depending on your settings above).
window.navigate method
