Screen sharing or sharing a ppt / pdf file

Hi,
I'm guessing Screen sharing is still not available in FMIS
3.0.
I wanted to know what is the best way to achieve this.
Also another question was is it possible for a user to upload
and control a ppt or a pdf file so that others can view it as the
speaker talks through the slides
Thanks in advance

Unfortunately, no... screensharing is still not available in
the general release of the Flashplayer (it's only available to
Adobe connect).
The way I handle document sharing is to first convert the
document to .swf with one page (or slide) on each frame, load the
.swf to each client via HTTP, and then use a shared object to sync
data about the current frame number.

Acrobat 9 Shared Review error "Could not save the shared review-enabled pdf file. .

I attempted to start a Shared Review of a PDF file. I have been unable to initiate the review. Upon completion of the setup routine (i.e., filed idenitified, server location identified, participant's email entered, send selected, I get the error message - Status" Could not save the shared review-enabled PDF file.

As a workaround, don't put the source PDF at the network folder location which you have specified in Shared Review wizard. Eg. if you are initiating a review at the network location \\servername\xyz, ensure that your source PDF is not placed at \\servername\xyz.
I have not understood your second question. Do you mean to say that Acrobat.com option is disabled for you?

If you uncheck this Acrobat Opens but the PDF will open without showing startup screen.

Why do I get only a black screen when I try to download PDF files?

Why do I get only a black screen when I try to download PDF files? I have the latest version of Adobe Reader.
This problem just started a few weeks ago.
I am still using Snow Leopard.
I have tried using Firefox instead of Safari, but still get the black screen.

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Send for shared review multiple pdf files

Hi
I want to know if it's possible to send for shared review more than one file with one action, or you have to send for shared review every single file? I have more than 100 files I would like to send for shared review.

I'm having the same problem. I've
been using this for over a year without an issue, today I am getting the same message, can't log into the server. It works on my pc but not my mac. Any answers

How do I edit the Screen Sharing 'Most Recently Used' files list ?

I have recently added a mac mini to the network at home, and will be using this as a headless device. I am connecting remotely (using screen sharing) which works well. I have set the Sceeen Sharing icon to remain permanently visible on the dock, ad by right clicking, I get a list of the most recently used shares.
The trouble is, that some of theses shares no longer exist, and tghere is also some duplication.
I would like to edit this list, but cannot find out how to do it.
Can anyone help please ?
Thanks
Geoff
PS - The same principle applies to a number of other programs that retaim n MRU lst on their dock icon - how can these be edited.

This doesn't apply to me anymore.

Jen.ph
When you say that you have the same problem, do you mean that you are:
1. Not able to download Adobe Reader;
2. cannot view a PDF file;
3. or what?
Please be a little more descriptive of your particular problem or, better yet, start your own thread and clearly indicate which problem(s) you're having and what you have done, thus far, to correct the problem(s).

Screen Sharing between Snow Leopard and Leopard not working

I have Leopard on my old G5 Tower and just put Snow on my Intel Mini now Screen Sharing no longer works, file sharing works my network drives chatter back and forth with no problems I just can't get a Screen Share connection. On the G5 I put in the mini's location the "communicating" barber pole churns away for about 2mins then comes back with "Connection failed. Please make sure that Screen Sharing is enabled on the computer..... Also make sure your network connection is working properly. On the Mini Screen Sharing either crashes on launch or when it does launch does the same thing as the G5. Screen Sharing is on on both machines. I was using it just mins. before installing Snow on the Mini. I did install the remote desktop update from Apple on the Mini, it seems to be for Snow only as the update isn't mentioned on Software Update on the Leopard G5. So I'm thinking of going back to Leopard on the Mini, can I do it by just doing a "restore" from Time Machine or should I dig out the old install disk?
Am I the only one out there with this problem?
Netgear router on wired Gigabit Ethernet Network, several Firewire drives, and Network Storage drives.

The G5 is running 10.5.8 with all the updates. Screen sharing on the Mini 9 times out of 10 crashes on launch when it does load the computer list shows but none on it can be selected and connected to as before. When I put the G5's name in and try to connect I get the same cannot connect make sure sharing is on message I get on the G5 trying to connect to the Mini. I have tried making new network settings and rebooting that didn't work. File sharing works works fine all network drives show up. This and Front Row being now slow jerky and audio being out of sync (I've seen this complaint else where on this forum) are the only problems I've found. But these two are just enough to send me back to Leopard on the Mini. It is my media server. I don't use iChat but I did check to see if Screen Sharing is on after it finally opened, crashed over and over, I see that it was enabled there as well. My network is wired not airport, I only use wifi for my iPod Touch.

Opening pdf files in the same monitor screen position.

When I open a pdf file in Reader XI it appears on the right hand side of my monitor's screen. If I open subsequent pdf files (while the first file is still open) the appear on the left hand side of my screen. How can I get them to open on the right hand side (on top of the first pdf file opened?

That to me seems like a bug in Yosemite.

Can I open an encrypted pdf file from Dropbox with my iPhone, iPad, or iPad Mini?

Mac OS 10.9.3 encrypts a pdf file using Acrobat XI, then sends it to Dropbox. Mobile device retrieves encrypted file from Dropbox. Then can mobile device user open (unencrypt) the pdf file?

George, you wrote something that encouraged me to try to encrypt a PDF document again using the security icon on the menu bar of my old Acrobat 8 Professional. It worked this time (it wouldn't encrypt on my first try, and I wrongly assumed that it wasn't compatible with Maverick OS). I dropped document into Dropbox, retrieved it with mobile devices; and when I tapped on the document, it simply asked for the password and opened perfectly. When moving to a different screen, then back to the secured PDF file, one must re-enter the password again (which is good).
As far as what PDF viewer -- I don't know. I have the Acrobat Reader APP on my devices, is that the reader the document is using?? I've never figured out which APPs are running at any particular time on these devices.
Many, many thanks for your reply!!

I can't print a Adobe PDF file from the browser. Ignores print command.

Nothing happens when trying to print PDF from browser. Print box doesn't pop up and does not go to Printer queue.

None of the above solutions worked for me. I have Firefox 10.0.1 and Adobe Reader 9.5.0, and a pdf file would not print either from the Adobe print button or CTRL-P or the Firefox File, Print command. Firefox Print Preview just shows a blank screen. If I save the pdf file it prints OK from Adobe Reader.

I've installed Adobe Reader twice and it still will not read a PDF file. What's up?

I've installed Adober Reader twice now and it still will not read a PDF. What's up?

I have the same problem. Adobe Reader worked fine until the last few days. I run Windows 7 and all I get is a small black cross in the top left corner of the screen. I can open downloaded pdf files, but not anything new from the internet.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the program and have run every type of scan I know of without any change.
This seems to be a common and recent problem, so I would like to know what's being done about it.

PDF files are empty in Safari

I just recently upgraded to Mavericks and was hoping that would resolve a long-time issue with Safari: Specifically, when I click on URL link to a PDF file, what I get is a black screen. If I right-click on the screen, I can download the "invisible" PDF file I am supposed to be seeing; so clearly the PDF is there, the link works, etc. Only, Safari will not display the PDF.
If I switch to Chrome and go to the same link, the PDF shows right up, no problem. And, yes, the easy answer is, use Chrome instead. But I noticed in putting in this question that it seems to be a recurring phenomenon for lots of users, with "PDF not displaying" issues going back at least as far as OSX 10.6. Curious if there is a simple fix.
Thanks for any feedback,
-gf

Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to print by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar may appear under the cursor. Click the printer icon.
Step 2
There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
Step 3
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination 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, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
Step 4
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
Step 5
Do as in Step 3 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.

How to make Preview the default reader for pdf files online?

Hi everyone,
Many product manufacturers put their product's broucher in pdf form online. I've tried the screen shot capture method for saved pdf files but when the file won't even open online, how do I get to even capture a screen shot in the first place? Is the problem in Safari 6? Many thanks in advance.

Hi Anthony,
So, you're instincts were correct - it is Safari.....
I use Firefox as my browser (I'm not a big fan of Safari or on Windows, of Explorer). When I clicked on your brochure in Firefox, it comes up with a little window asking me what I want to do with the file - and with the "Open With" Preview" button checked.
When I do the same with Safari, it opens a new Safari window, displaying it online, but not downloading it.
So, don't know if you want to download Firefox, but did want to let you know that's why it was working differently for me!
Good luck with this - hope you are able to get it to work out for you!
Cheers,
GB
