Save as text and reader mode

Firefox needs a save as text setting. There is a save as text add on. However, twice the add on ceased working. Twice, I had to uninstall firefox, reinstall firefox and reconfigure the settings.
In the alternative, Firefox needs a 'select text' in its settings. The stock android browser has 'select text' in its settings. Click on 'select text', touch webpage, two arrows appears, spread arrows apart, touch screen, a pop up menu offers: share selected text or copy. I select copy. Open 920 text editor, create a new plain text file and then touch screen.. However, text is not copied. I have to repeat this whole procedure several times because text is copied into a new plain text file.
Whereas, Firefox cannot even bring up the pop up menu. I long press a paragraph in firefox. The two arrows appears. I spread them apart. I touch the screen. No pop up menu offering open to copy.
Nor is reader mode an alternate to saving as text. I have not be able to save a webpage in reader mode because the book icon is rarely displayed in the title bar. Why? Firefox's article on reader mode does not disclose what file format the files are saved as. Can the reader mode files be converted to plain text files or PDF to be later read on a computer?

Hi badbiosvictim,
I see in the device information that you are running version 21. There were some improvements made in Firefox since then and I encourage you to see if the update helps resolve your copy and paste issue.
However there is also save page as pdf that you can save on the device and read in a file reader.
I hope this helps!

How to enlarge text in reader mode in safari on iOS 7?

Hi all,
Just wondering if anybody could tell me how to enlarge the text when in reader mode on Safari in iOS 7? Before in iOS 6 this was very easy; you just needed to press an icon that had bigger text display while in reader mode itself. But now it seems with iOS 7 you cannot do this. Please somebody tell me that there is a way to do this?
Thanks in advance!

I am confusd by the question. Safari Reader is still there. Apple moved the button to the left side of the address/search bar and also changed it's appearance.
It's just a series of 4 lines stylized to represent text. Once selected, the colors invert. I do not see any way to increase the text size further though, ...and peerhaps that is your question.
In iOS 6, while in reader mode you could enlarge or reduce the size of the text just by pressing some icons whilst in reader mode. You can no longer do this in iOS 7 as the feature has been removed. But thanks for your response.

Hi all.

i can read the shipment text corresponding to the delivery using the fm read_text but when saving it to shipment i am facing a problem.
my shipment number is not geneerated at that time.so how can i get the text read using read text to be seen in the shipment before it is saved.
is there a way out?'

Hi,
Till the time it gets created you can not save text, because you need to have object name to pass into save_text function module.

I can't save CD-Text that reads with Windows Media Player

I'm trying to burn discs that will play on Windows Media Player showing title, artist, album name, etc., AND play in a stand alone home CD player.
It seems like I've tried almost everything and nothing's working.
I've saved my files as Windows PCM .wav, ACM .wav, WMA, MP3, and OGG and I can't get anything to work. I've burned them with RIFF tags AND MP3(ID3) tags. I've used up dozens of discs and I'm getting nowhere.
I even burned up more discs trying to burn wav, wma, and mp3 files with Record Now software.
I don't know what else I can do. Am I asking too much?
Thanks!

"nowhere have you mentioned whether you have checked to see that the CD-writer in your PC supports CD-text writing - not all of them do, and you should check this specifically."
That's an astute observation. I honestly don't know if it does, and I'll have to check with Lenovo to find out. Thank you for reminding me.
"If you want a couple of name-brand players that will read CD-text, then RealPlayer (from version 10) and Winamp (from version 5.31) will. If you want trusted ones, then I'd say just Winamp..."
I agree with you on Winamp being the better of the two...but, I was hoping for something like iTunes or QuickTime - I'd prefer something that is already loaded on most people's computers. Do you know which players are more likely to already be on most?
"http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/knowledgecenter/howto/albuminfo_how_to.aspx tells you how to get your album info into the Microsoft database."
Peter, I'm thinking that link shows someone how to add info to
their player, but it doesn't allow me to set the data for everyone who plays my CD. It's a
very informative link though. Thank you!
"There is nothing that Adobe can do to change that system."
They don't have to change that system; why can't they work with it? WMP
has the ability to display CD-Text so why can't the two of them get together and work this out? I don't see it happening any other way. I mean, if Adobe doesn't do it, we're pretty much sunk.
Thanks fellas, I've appreciated your comments and your help.

What gives the best contrast and sharpness in text and reading documents on macbook pro with Hi-res screen, glossy or anti glare ?

HI,
I consider buying a MacBook pro 15 with hi-res screen.
My primary use is text editing and document reading (primarily Word).
I want as good as possible "clearness" or is it called contrast, leat blurry looking text.
Anyone who has any experience and/or opinion on this.
Thanks for your answer.
Terje

If I were you, I would opt for the high-res/anti-glare option - it's only $100US now: back when I purchased my MBP in March of 2012, it was a $250 option which I just couldn't afford. Now, looking at the new models side-by-side, I wish that I had ponyed up the $250 for the HR/AG option.
I'm certain that you won't regret it - the people that have the option seem to be tickled pink with it. These days I'm using a (glossy) 17" Apple Thunderbolt Display 90% of the time in a semi-dark room. But I find that my MBP with the glossy screen is simply unusable when outdoors or in bright backlighting.
Go for it...

Fireworks CS3 - Internal error when save as JPEG and batch mode

Dears,
I am being in trouble for all along these 7 days due to this
error. I hope that someone may help me.
After upgrading to CS3 from Fireworks 8, I am having this
"internal error message" both when the preview for a JPEG export
format is chosen (it works OK when the export format is either GIF
or PNG) and when I work with batch operation.
Everything is OK if I run Fireworks either as "root" user or
as "adminplus" user ("adminplus" is the username of an extra user
with administration privileges I created for testing).
My operating system is MacOsX 10.5.4 and my computer is a
MacBook2,1 (MacBook with Intel Core 2 Duo 2 GHz with 2GB RAM and a
brand new 186,31 GB Hitachi Journaled HFS+ HD with 100GB free).
I tried in many way to get the valuable differences in the
Library files and privileges (looking to many forums, it seems this
may be the cause, also confirmed by the fact that other users works
fine) but I didn't get any special differences.
I tried to trash the preferences but still the error is
present.
I tried with the master temporary file in MacOsX with
terminal command "stat -x $TMPDIR" checked against command "id".
User and privileges were OK but still the "internal error" was
there.
I tried with a simple reinstall for Fireworks CS3 and with a
full reinstall of the full CS3 web standard suite and, moreover,
uninstalling and reinstalling everything.
I also tried with Fireworks 8 which was not removed by the
upgrade and it has the same problems.
May I receive a competent suggestion about how to diagnosis
and solve the problem?
Many thanks,
Carmine

OK. I solved it!
Whoever will have the same problem may ask how I solved. It
is not complicated but it is a long story. I succeed without any
reinstall of operating system as suggested by the ADOBE support, in
case any of the suggestions found everywhere, will give no result.
I will be happy to explain what to do to whoever will need
it.
My very best wishes,
Carmine

Difference between Buffered Read and Read Mode on DataSocket Open

What are the behavior differences when opening a DataSocket connection with a Buffered Read verses Read?

Mlenz,
You can learn about buffering data from our website, or in the LabVIEW help. By using the Datasocket Buffered Read, you are enabling Client-side Buffering. If you do not use a Buffered Read, then the LabVIEW does not store the values in a buffer, which are written when the value changes.
Hope this helps,

Text mode and Binary mode

Can anybody give the differences between Text and Binary modes that are used with Datasets??

For Binary Mode
The contents of the file are not structured in lines in the READ DATASET or TRANSFER operations. Instead, they are input or output as a stream. You do not have to specify the IN BINARY MODE addition explicitly.
For Text Mode
If you use this addition, the contents of the file are structured in lines. Each time you use the READ DATASET or TRANSFER statement, the system reads or writes a single line. If the data object to which you are transferring the data is too big, it is padded with spaces. If it is too small, the data record is truncated.
Hope this helps.

Saving text and image

I have an application where I need to save both text and image.
this is controlled by the menu
when I press save I want to be able to save either a text file or an image file.
How can I do this.
below is a sample of what I have been trying
else if (source == menuSave)
//             File.getName().toLowerCase().endsWith(".jpg");
           saveimage();
//           if(File.getName().toLowerCase().endsWith(".txt"))
           savetext();both saveimage() and savetext() are independent functions

For savetext, you could use simple PrintWriter.

Save as Text error

When I try to save a PDF as TXT, the first line on each page is duplicated:
Page 1->2
"Gladly," interposed the gray-haired man. "Your headquarters is on the way to my hotel. The night is
<ff>
mild. We can talk as we stroll along."
mild. We can talk as we stroll along."
Page 3->4
"Yes," admitted Rochelle, as he led the visitor through to the front room on the left, "but a worthy one.
Our publications will go everywhere. Here, senator, is our meeting room."
<ff>
They were standing in the front room. The senator stared at the walls. Beautifully decorated in many
colors, they formed maps in mural style. The entire world was depicted. Darvin Rochelle smiled as he
observed the keen interest which the visitor displayed.

Any idea what's happening? What additional information would be helpful?

So...no ideas on how to actually fix the problem, just complain about someone saying they have a problem with microsoft instead of windows? I'm having a similar problem, save as text and the file has the first paragraph of the page not only duplicated, but has removed text that originally took the place of the duplicated text. For example:
     Tom and Jane had a dog who constantly hunched their legs and ruined their couch.
     They could never decide what to do with the dog.
     Finally, they got rid of the thing.
would be saved as:
     Tom and Jane had a dog who constantly hunched their legs and ruined their couch.
     Tom and Jane had a dog who constantly hunched their legs and ruined their couch.
     Finally, they got rid of the thing.
Which becomes very hard to fix in a 200 page file. The forum says that there's a possible solution, but it seems as if you can't actually click on the solution to go and see what it is, and with no point of reference, you could be searching for a long time. By the by, I'm using Reader 9.3
Also: this doesn't happen with every PDF, but I can find no pattern between which ones do and do not cause the problem to occur (images in the file, hyperlinks, etc don't seem to make a difference).

Clear Save As Text Cache

From Adobe 8.0, I do: file > save as text, and there are a lot of old filenames in the cache from previous saves. How do you clear this cache?

Bernd,
I'm new to the forum, and thanks for pointing me to the right one. I have reposted in the Adobe Reader forum. I've been trying to figure out how to clear my cache for a good while now.

How to save long text for IA01 Transaction using BDC

Hi All,
In my requirement I have to create a Task List Equipment and Task List Functional Location using BDC.Here I need to upload the long text for both IA01 and IA11 transactions.I am using SAVE_TEXT function module to save the text and COMMIT_TEXT also after save text.But I am not able to see the text in IA12 and IA02 transactions.But using READ_TEXT I am able to get the text what updated using SAVE_TEXT.
Please answer for this if any one worked on this requirement <Priority normalized by moderator>
Thanks,
Satya.
Edited by: Vinod Kumar on Jan 2, 2012 9:02 PM

Hi Satya,
There is a simple way to update the long text. There is direct input object in the LSMW for long text.
Object            : 0001
Method          : 0001
Program type : D
SImply go and create the LSMW with first option and follow the steps. No need to call the function modules separately. This standard program will take care of every thing.
If you have multiple lines to populate in the equipment master at the header level then you need two set of files. Then key will be equipment number with leading zeros if it will not be alpha numeric.
1) First file with field EQUNR.
2) Second file will be
EQUNR                          C(018)    Technical identification number
TXPARGRAPH                     C(002)    Tag column
TXLINE                         C(072)    Text editor text line
TEXT_MARK                      C(001)    Description Indicator for RIIBIP00 (IBIP) Processing
Please let me know if you need more in detail.
Thanks,

Can I save and read text files on a server that I host?

Hello everyone,
I am a java hobbiest. I was wondering if I set up my own server, running out of my house, could I have my applets save to my computer and read from my computer without having to learn JDBC and a DATABASE language. In other words could i just have my applet save and read text files from and to my server?
I'm trying to set up a sight for my 5th grade class where parents can log into. Thanks for your time.
Oh yeah, which is easier, learning how to set up a server or learning JDBC and a DATABASE language?
If you have any other good idease please tell me them
Thank you, Bryan

Short answer: This isn't gonna work
Long answer: For this to work, the first thing you're going to need is a static IP address and a DNS name registered -actually you don't necessarily need #2 but you're probably gonna want it and it's by far the easier of the steps.
As far as I know to get a fixed IP address you've either gotta be directly attached to a larger network (ie university network) or get a leased line from an ISP.
Once you've got that done come back to us.

I need to erase the contents of my phone and restore to factory settings. Does anybody know how to save your texts so you don't lose them? Can I back those up to iCloud? My phone was very likely hacked (Apple's advice was to call the police!)

"I need to erase the contents of my phone and restore to factory settings. Does anybody know how to save your texts so you don't lose them? Can I back those up to iCloud? My phone was very likely hacked (Apple's advice was to call the police!)"
That was all I could put in the initial "box." Then it brought me to this page with instructions on how to write a good sentence.
Proceeding ...
After going back and forth between Apple, AT&T and the police (all telling me to go to the other two) I took AT&Ts suggestion and got a new number. One tech warned against doing a backup, especially on my Mac, saying if my phone had been hacked then whatever bug was there would then invade my computer. But nobody knows how to determine if the phone has been hacked or a virus was planted there. Unfortunately I know who would have reason to do such a thing and all I can say is that he is at the top technologically and could easily do it. Almost impossible to prove, however.
So I need to preserve my text messages and my emails as well. I backed up my photos to that Microsoft product (One-Drive) and it froze (Surprise, Surprise) with four short videos to go, and no way of stopping that (when I tried it crashed repeatedly) so I'm in crisis mode here.
Help ...
Running 8.0 on 5S
Thanks!

Betty I don't know if you fixed your hacking problem but I feel your pain. I've seen some strange things going on between my iMac and my iPhone and Apple has told me the same thing, call the police which I have done. The hackers have stole 500.00 out of my checking account have access to every internet account I use and no matter how often I change the password their right back on the account. I closed my FB account 3 times only to have someone reopen it. Right now I've got a link in my reading list (Safari) that if I click on it, it allows me to log onto my FB account anonymously.
I've seen a green folder come out of no where while I was trying to delete my passwords out of keychain when that green folder was put into the key chain I was immediately locked out. I than went into system preferences to try to make changes to my security settings, when I clicked on the icon it wouldn't open. I've seen log files of automator receiving commands and sending out my personal information thats on my computer.
I have a legitamate program called iExplorer that allows you to look at the contents of your iPhone back ups and saw a transaction someone made at the Apple store for some full length movies, some albums, ibooks and other apps but when I called the iTunes store and they said none of those items were showing up on my account. If their not on my account how can they be on my iPhone 6? One day someone was using my gmail account and unknowingly used google maps to search for an Italian restaurant, than a Mexican restaurant than a coffee shop and their search showed up on my iPhone but I didn't have my gmail account installed on my iPhone 6. Using my computer I logged onto my gmail account and looked at the maps history and sure enough there were the searches when I'd hover my curser over the link it gave me the longitude and latitude of the where the hacker was when he was using google maps. I know whoever reads this thinks Im crazy but I've documented everything and can prove the things that I have mentioned in this post actually happened.
One day I had my laptop (pc) and my iMac next to each other as I was using both. when I clicked on airport it showed that my laptop and my iMac had made a connection and were actually communicating with each other. I know I didn't do it I don't know how. The iMac was logged into my iCloud account while my laptop wasn't. I have formatted my iPhone at least a dozen times, Apple and an Apple retailer have formatted my hard drive not to mention the numerous times I have formatted it but the hackers keep getting on my devices. Im formatting my lap top at this very second because during the course of the night I left the ethernet cable plugged into it and they locked me out of my c: drive, and configured the system so I can't download any updates from Microsoft, overtime I type in www.microsoft.com it changes to ww38.microsoft.com which takes me to a blank page. I right clicked on the page I was redirected to and read the java script and couldn't believe that someone had actually configured Internet Explorer to redirect me to a blank page when I tried to go to Microsoft. Apples answer to all this is there was nothing wrong with my iPhone or my iMac and if I thought there was a problem to call the police which I have done.
Theres no doubt the hackers are reading this while I type it or will read it and I simply don't care anymore. I no longer email anyone, don't use my iCloud account and have taken precautions to protect my credit but if I ever find out who has invaded my privacy to this extreme the police are going to want to talk to me because Im going to hurt them like they've never been hurt before
