Opening a PDF as two-up from computer to computer

Adobe world, here is my problem.
I need to be able to send a PDF so that when a seperate person opens it on their seperate computer the PDF will open as two-up automatically regardless of their view setting preferences. There seems to be no easy way to do this, and everyone's solution seems to be just to merge two pdf pages into one wide page that looks like its two pages. For the application of this PDF that is not an option. Each page needs to remain an individual pdf page. I would be astounded if Adobe had no setting options for this, but they seem not to. Please, someone help me out here!

There are two ways to do it, but both require Acrobat. Do you have Acrobat, or just the free Reader?

When I attempt to open a PDF file I saved from a website, I get the message "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." Is there any way to correct this problem?

When I attempt to open a PDF file I saved from a website using Safari, I get the message "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." When I save the same PDF file using FireFox it opens up immediately. Is there any way to correct this problem with Safari?

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.

Downloads - I want to open some PDFs/other file types from the internet but not have to save them. I can't figure out how to view them and close them without having to save them first. When I click on a file, the downloads box opens and depending on the setting, it auto saves the file or asks me where to save the file. What if I don't want to save it anywhere, I just want to view it and close it?

I cannot open any pdf files that are saved to my computer. Keep getting error 507:507

Every time I try to open a pdf file from a website or through an email it will not let me opne the file. I can open files that are saved to my computer but that doesn't do me much good in some scenarios. I run IE 10 on Windows 7 Home with Adobe Reader XI 11.0.04. I have tried unsinstalling and reinstalling. It works fine for a few days then the errors start again. HELP!

Thank you Pat!!!

Open link (PDF) in new window from WebHelp custom skin button

This question relates to my work with FM>RH integration. But the task I'm trying to accomplish is something specifically done in RH with customization of WebHelp skins, so I'm posting in this forum. I'm running RH9 on Windows XP Pro.
We have recently replaced WebWorks with RH and finally have the mapping files set up to generate Help from our FM source files. Celebration was short, because then we realized that our users wanted a PDF option. We haven't done any mapping to create PDFs from RH, and that seems kind of silly anyway, since we have superior PDF generation from the FM files.
So I set about making a custom button in the header of a WebHelp skin that will link to a PDF. I accomplshed that work, but its behavior falls short of the functionality I'd like to see. Currently, you click on the button and it opens the PDF in the browser window of the Help system. I want it to open in a new window, so I can keep the experience clean for the users, separating Help and PDF. I don't know if this is possible.
Here is where I am at. To create button I navigated to:
Project Set-up/Skins/NEW SKIN/WebHelp Skin Editor/ Main/NEW BUTTON
When I choose the edit icon to customize the new button, there is an option to choose Link or JavaScript. I got the PDF to open inside the Help browser by just using the Link option and specifying the PDF. I have tried to use the JavaScript option without success. My JS may be wrong, but when I choose inline JS option and place anything there, it turns all the navigation buttons to gobbledy ****. Specifying an external JS file doesn't work at all.
Any direction or help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Douglas

I see one other shortcoming with this solution now that I've implemented it. Our Help follows the applictions through a convoluted path of development servers, amongst other strangeness with the way we deploy Help and PDF documentation. My concern is referencing a single URL/file on a server. Since we're moving things around, that doesn't really work well, we want the PDF to be with the Help system, if possible. Is there a way to reference the PDF as a relative link in the baggage files, so it will pull it from whatever server the Help system resides on without having to make changes?
UPDATE:
It seems if you place the PDF in the WebHelp folder and reference it as the JavaScript, the Help system automatically reats it as root folder and find it there. So, I think this is the solution to my question? However, this is a bit annoying, as it means you have to remember to manually place the file in the compiled Help system. I had earlier experimented with placing the PDF as a baggage file, but those don't seem to carry over when you compile Help. Is there any way to put the PDF in the Baggage Files and designate that it be included in compiled Help?

How do i sync contacts on two iphones from the same computer without merging the contacts

I called tech support and they suggested I set up a separate user account on my computer and that should create a new windows contact file (which it did). When I sync the iphone from the new user account, it seems to still be syncing to the windows contacts folder in the main administrator account and not the newly created account. iIconfirmed this because i deleted one contact from the iphone and one contact from the new windows contact folder. I then did a sync and no changes occurred on phone or the windows contact folder in teh new user account. I then went to the original user account and teh name I deleted from teh iphone was deleted from that windows folder. I am not able to select any different folder to sync contacts with in the itunes "info" tab. Do I need to set up under a completely different computer?

I called support and they helped me realize the " sync contacts with windows contacts" was unchecked (maybe I didn't click sync or apply when I first checked it?). He helped me clean up some unnecessary contacts by clicking the contacts box in the advance tab and removing names directly from the windows contacts folder before syncing.

Opening pdf's in applications from safari - ipad

When opening a pdf in an application from safari (i.e. pdf expert, goodreader) the pdf name does not show correctly. Is there a way to properly create the pdf or open it differently to keep the name in the application?
Thank you,

Hi Gerard
You'll need to use at least Adobe Reader 8.1 with Safari 3, otherwise, Safari crashes. To install Reader 8.1.3, go here. At the site, click on the drop down selection menu and choose "Power PC 10.4.3 - 10.4.10". Otherwise, Adobe points you to Reader 9 instead of 8.
Before installing Reader 8, go to your HD>Library>Internet Plug-ins folder and move to the trash the existing Adobe PDF plug-in. This way, you're ensured of a clean install of version 8.
After the install, and prior to opening Safari, I suggest you go to your Applications>Utilities folder, open Disk Utility, highlight your HD and select "repair permissions".
Post back and let us know if that stops the crashes.

How do you Open a PDF without saving it to your computer first ?

Dumb question. How do you open a Pdf document without copying & moving to your computer first ?
The only thing I can get is a note pad with code.

Dumb question: where is the PDF document before moving & copying it to your computer?
P.S. what is your operating system?

Prepopulating PDF forms with data from XML file

How can I get a PDF form to open pre-populated with data from an XML file automatically? I've been using Adobe LifeCycle Designer 8.0 and there doesn't seem to be a way to do it. The closest I came was to use the ImportData method, but that only lets you specify a data file if the form is signed (certified), which these aren't and don't need to be because we're using them on an internal company web page. ImportData works if there is no file name, but then the user has to navigate to and select the correct file, which we can't rely on our users to do.
I've researched this problem for days on this and other websites and haven't found an answer (one Adobe advisor suggested purchasing LifeCycle Forms, which is not an option because it's a $10,000 software package and the company wouldn't authorize a purchase that steep). We will buy a less-expensive option if there is one. We'll even hire a consultant if we can find one to who can design a supportable solution. All suggestions will be much appreciated.

Hi Sharon
The easiest way is:
- Open your PDF form within Acrobat
- From the File menu, import the XML form data into the form
- From the File menu, use Save As... to save the file with a new name.
The new PDF will be identical to the original one, but will have the data embedded in it. Voila.
If you want the same form to pre-populate with different XML files depending on the circumstances, or if you're generating the XML on the fly, then things get more complicated. (And more expensive.) As your consultant said, LiveCycle Forms is one option, but it is expensive (actually even more than 10K). There are other options, including Cold Fusion, custom servlets, etc.

Possible to run two BB phones off one computer?

In our office we have an interesting set up for getting email from two sources, Hotmail and Outlook, to the bosses BB device. Direct forwarding to his BB's email works fine for Hotmail and Redirector works for his Outlook. Here's the catch, he just bought a Storm and now would like both his old BB and new Storm to get exactly the same emails so he can compare the two to decide which he likes better.
Hotmail only allows you to forward to a single email address, and Redirector seems to only allow to forward to one PIN device. I don't think it is possible to forward to two phones from the same computer, but I could be wrong. Anyone think they have a solution?
Also, DM will not allow syncing with more than one phone will it?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Sorry, you misunderstood me. I didn't say anything about Redirector. It won't.
For the Hotmail, one--don't let it 'forward' to the BlackBerry, instead set the Hotmail up direct to recieve the push email as it is designed. As it is now, you are actually forwarding your email from Hotmail to some other address? Like a blackberry.net address? Use the normal, routine push setup with your BIS account.

And, again, on the Redirecto, no go.
