Save web pages/maps

I can't seem to save a page from the web or a map for use away from the wifi hotspot. What am I doing wrong? I'm using an 8GB Touch.

Yes you can. I did the following experiment. While on the internet at home I went to my maps app:
www.grapier.com/maps.html
and pulled up my home location. I zoomed to the level that I wanted, and then disconnected from Wi Fi. Later in the day, when I was away, and not in any Wi Fi spot, I pulled out the touch, tapped on Safari, and went to the page where I had the map. I was able to view it, and - using the two-finger technique - scroll left, right, up and down. Imagine you're in the center box of a 3 X 3 cell, each cell is a touch screen window of the larger map. That's how far I could move around and still see the map. Of course I couldn't zoom in or out, but I could take and use the map. Other open windows carry the weather forecast from WeatherBug, notes from Noter, ...
I also have an 8GB touch, running 1.1.2 - nothing special.

  • I use iMac desktop. I can't save web pages as PDF file by using Firefox, but by Safari is fine.

    I'm using Mac OS X 10.6.4. Today, I tried to save my email content as a PDF file. However, I only got a PDF file that have partial content of email. Then I adjust the printer setting and did it again, then I only got a blank PDF file. There was nothing inside. Then I tried to save email as a PDF file by using Safari browser. And I got a complete and sucessful PDF file. I usually save web pages or web mail, online receipt as PDF file by use Firefox. But since I have updated to the new version, there were many problems with my Firefox. I tried to restore all my application and made Firefox in the old 3.6.3 version which I used to have no problem. But now still not working.

    I solved it for myself: it was my HP smart-web printer crap that was a plug in and add on for firefox that somehow automatically got installed when I upgraded to 5. I disabled both in the add-ons manager, and voila, printing is working.
    It seems there are many things, like this and the Google toolbar, that were screwed by the oddly fast update to 5. Looks like Mozilla didn't give anybody any notice! Must've been some really bad security hole.

  • Save Web page into PDF in Windows 7 32 bit for Adobe 7

    When security under Internet options in Internet Explorer runs with "Enable Protected Mode" checked, can not save web page into PDF. The version of Adobe is 7.
    Nazir

    Are you saying you cannot print to the Adobe PDF printer or what. You have to be more complete in your description since AA7 will not fully work in Win7. You will have to use workarounds, but knowing what steps you are using is important to giving any help. Just saying save does not help. Of course, you might be able to use the MS plugin for creating PDFs as an alternative if you only have AA7. One thing that you find with AA7 is that PDF Maker will likely not work and also the printer will have to be a print to file, followed with a use of Distiller to complete the PDF creation. The AA7 version of AcroTray that does a lot of the work in the background should not be expected to work with Win 7, thus the need for workarounds.

  • E52 save web pages??

    as mention above does e52 have this "save web pages"....function inthe nokia browser.

    No, not "Save as bookmark" but "Save" (as in Nokia N82 OR N95). To be able to save web page for offline browsing.
    Could this option be added somehow?
    Or is it typical Nokia attitude "we don't care once you have bought our product"?

  • Save Web Page to String or File

    Hi,
    I'm trying to save a web page to a file or preferably to a String. I need the html coding from it. I tried with the next code:
        public static String saveURL(URL url){
           try{
              URLConnection uc = url.openConnection();
              InputStream raw = uc.getInputStream();
              byte[] data = new byte[100*1024];
              raw.read(data);
              raw.close();
              return (new String(data));
          } catch(Exception e){System.out.println("Utils saveURL");e.printStackTrace();return null;}
        }But it worked with one site and it didn't work with another. I got this message from the one that didn't work:
    < ! D O C T Y P E H T M L P U B L I C " - / /
    Do you know a better method to save a web page to a String? Could it be that the web page i'm trying to save is protected? I don't think so because Internet Explorer is able to save it. Thank you.

    your buffer may be big enough, but the wrong assumption you are making is that read() actually fills the buffer. It may read less data than that, as you are experiencing right now. The read() method returns the amount of bytes it actually reads, so use that information to keep reading data in a loop until you get it all. This link contains an example how to do that:

  • What the best ways to save web pages  on the cloud ? Using an iPhone ?

    Dear folks
    I read a lot of web pages on iPhone that I need to refer to / come back to later
    I have limited space on my iPhone and do not want to clutter the phone saving all these pages
    What are the best options to
    a) save these web pages on the cloud ?
    B) Or mail them to myself ( again store on some specific gmail or so account ? )
    Or
    C) It would also be great to convert  them to PDF and mail them to myself or  save them on box dot net or Dropbox
    Or
    d) save them initially on the phone but , eventually move them in batches to my hard drive thru backups
    What is the best option ? And  What are the best ways to do this
    Free apps / solutions preferred
    If not so paid ones are okay 
    TIA
    Regards
    Subu

    Import photos to your computer, then delete the copies that reside on the phone. Also remove apps you no longer use.

  • I want to save web pages as webarchives (can do in Safari on Mac). How?

    I can save a web page as a document type webarchive on my Mac in Safari. Closest option in FireFox is html, which is cludgey. Can't find anything in help to save as webarchive.
    Does someone know how?
    Mac OS 10.8, Firefox 29.0.1

    There are two extensions that add that feature to Firefox.
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/mozilla-archive-format/
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/unmht/
    You'll need to verify Mac compatibility.

  • How can I save web pages in .txt format?

    I often want to save information I find online so I can look at it later. When I open the 'file; save as' box, it offers me four options, one of which is text files. but no matter which option I choose, it always saves as a web page. I just want the basic text, in .txt format. How can I get it to do this?

    You should see the option for ''' "Text Files" ''' when going to save a web page, in addition to Web Page, complete and Web Page, HTML only - but that is probably going to have a lot more than just the pure text of that web page.
    This should work better, but you might miss some of what appears to be "text" when viewing the web page. <br />
    {Ctrl + A} to highlight the entire web page, then {Ctrl + C} to copy everything that is highlighted to the Clipboard. Then Paste the contents of the Clipboard into a Text Editor program, then use {Ctrl + S} to bring up the Save As... dialog. Name that file and make sure you include '''.txt'''.

  • When I save web page on my HDD then when I try to open it the pictures are not displayed?

    I have saved on my hdd webpage and folder with all pictures, but when I try to open it by doubleclick it open onli web page with text but picture stay clear (only borders)

    Hi bikicviki,
    Thank you for your question. I do not believe that the proper links have been updated to reference the newly saved file path of the local webpage that you saved.
    Can you please check the webpage content that was saved to see if there is an image stored in a folder? They should be. If not, can you please provide an example webpage and I will try it? I tried this webpage and did not have any missing images.
    Looking forward to your reply!

  • Is there a way to have firefox save web pages from a batch list of urls

    Is there a plugin for firefox to load urls from a list and save the pages including images to file

    I'm not aware of such an add-on, but it might exist. There also might be a Greasemonkey userscript that will load the pages and fire the save.

    I don't believe that there is anything in the iPad User Guide about saving Web pages as Web archives which is what the original poster asked.
    With the current iPad Safari there is no way of saving web pages. Images on web pages can be saved and, of course, web pages can be bookmarked.
    To save web pages you can use another app like Goodreader. A URL in Safari can be transferred to Goodreader for downloading (add "g" before http).

  • How do I save a web page so that someone else can open it?

    Sometimes I want to save web pages as archives for future reference. I thought printing as a PDF would be the most widely readable format, but items on the page are often lost and I end up with question marks.
    I have just tried "Save As" to a web archive, and that works well in Safari (meaning that Safari can reopen it perfectly), but when I emailed the file to a PC user they couldn't open it. I assumed a web archive format would be readable by any web browser; obviously that's not the case.
    How do I archive a web page so that it is universally readable without losing any content?

    A web-link won't work because the particular page I want to send requires a subscription. The story about this particular page I want to send: four of us are planning a 7-day hiking trip through some Tasmanian wilderness, and we don't go unless the weather forecast is fine. I am subscribed to a weather website, but when I send this link:
    http://www.weatherzone.com.au/models/meteogram.jsp?lt=twcid&lc=9350
    they don't get the meteograms (graphs of various weather aspects out to 10 days).
    So, I want to save the particular page and send it off. In general, though, I simply want to archive certain pages.
    In my limited testing it looks like:
    • Safari can't save a web page accurately;
    • Firefox can, but it generates a separate folder of files ( I would have to combine the two, then zip them, then email);
    • iCab may be able to, but I haven't tested it yet.
    I didn't think saving a web page, incorporated into a single file, would be so complicated.

  • Firefox v. 30 won't save a page as "Web page, complete" -- NEVER

    I tried to save a page as "Web page, complete" in v. 30. It used to work in v. 29. Now it never saves the original. It used to say in the Downloads list, when I did save a file, that it failed. I learned to ignore that, because the first time I would save a file, as "web page, complete," it did get listed in Windows explorer and I could open it up in Firefox and see it, looking close to the same way I saw it originally (some words are on a new line, and images are smaller).
    It is most critical when I want to save a list of the journal articles I download, along with images of the check off boxes having a check mark. In v. 29, they were there. If I saved the saved page again, after checking off more boxes, it wouldn't save it but it wouldn't tell me so, either. I would have to always keep an eye on the directory listing in Windows Explorer. I learned to just save it again, and it would be saved. However, now in v. 30 it NEVER saves the main htm page of this ORIGINAL web page when I save it with the option "web page, complete," but it does save the "_files" folder for ancillary images. I now have to save the original web page as file type: "files, all," putting in the .htm as file extension. I then open it up in firefox, and none of the boxes are checked as they were in the original. So I have to recheck all the boxes again and then save it as "web page, complete". This time, the "web page, complete" works, but clearly not on the original web page. The resulting file looks like the page that got saved with the "files,all" option I saved before, but now the boxes I checked off are still checked off. I get the web page back, but not looking much like it was originally, and only after a great deal of work.
    I am using Firefox 30 on XP

    I appreciate your thought on this problem. Yes, all journal database searches use the same algorithm but there is something in common to all which is not present in many other kinds of web pages, e.g. PubMed abstracts or pages with just an abstract, or blog posts or news stories -- the boxes to check off (e.g. to list all abstracts and citations for the ones you choose) and the listings of links to abstracts, pdfs, supplements, etc. posted with each article description (see searches by Oxford University Press http://rspb.royalsocietypublishing.org/search and by Sage http://online.sagepub.com/search ). The links and empty check boxes get printed on the "save page" result, but any check boxes you checked off lose the check after saving the page as a "Web page, complete."
    That was not the case in v. 29. In most of the past Firefox versions, the resulting page saved does not look like the original one, because of the realignment of text and links. However, now, the functionality of those saved pages is seriously compromise. Worse, there are no images. I could tolerate what v. 29 did, but not what 30 is doing.
    I just found out that although the downloads tool window list of titles that appears after you tried to save a page always lists the attempt as having "Failed", you can succeed in completing some files when you click on its name in the list. Usually, as I said in the past, you just try again and it saved in version pre-28 (I think). But as I mentioned before you can't trust what the downloads tool tells you. In the past it actually finally, after another attempt, saved the page despite telling you it failed in that window. I click on the "failed" download now and it does download, but is missing any of the list of articles found on the original web page, so certainly, the result is not what you were aiming for with the "Save", "Web page, complete" choice. The main point here is that there are no check boxes, empty or filled at all in an attempt to use "Web page, complete" option in the "Save" choice for any journal database search. I can only conclude that "Web page, complete" doesn't work for journal article searches.
    The main reason for keeping a web page functionality in a "save web page" option is to be able to work on it offline. I can copy the information about specific articles I downloaded to enter into my own Reference Manager program, along with the relevant links. I can carry this web page with me to a university where I can download the article without having to run a search all over again, with the strong possibility that it won't give me all the same results as I just got at home, losing some articles I really wanted to get. Saving a web page tells me what I was interested in to begin with, which gets lost if the boxes I checked off are not in what I can save.

  • How do I save a web page as a .txt file?

    There is no 'save as'; there is no menu bar. The limited menu bar in the lower left of the phone does not cover this.

    AFAIK then the Firefox mobile version only allows to save web pages as a PDF file, so you won't be able to do this.
