Share without download

Is there a way to share a pdf for viewing only, disallowing
others to download the file?

Thanks Matt. But what I need to know is, "is it possibleto share the app without downloading multiple times. We are away from fast download speeds and when it takes three hours to download a 245 Kb app once, that's 9 hours to do it three times. There's no way we can download the latest IOS version at 750 Mb at these speeds unless we visit the major population centres.

  • Is there a way to watch another family members movies through family share without downloading the entire movie?

    Before family share my kids were signed in under my apple ID. They had the ability to just stream whatever Disney movies they wanted that we owned. Now they have to download the entire movie to watch it? Seems a bit over kill to me. Plus those movies fill up their entire ipads.

    Think of all this as two entities, 1. your Apple ID's and 2. Apple services (and by services I mean iCloud, iTunes, Home Sharing, Messages, FaceTime, Support Communities etc etc).
    You can choose to use a different ID for each service, thereby creating the flexibility you are looking for.
    For iCloud (which syncs contacts, mail, calendars etc) I suggest you each use your own ID, this means you will have your own contacts etc.
    For iTunes, you might use separate ID's or you might both use the same one, I make no suggestion here because there are benefits to both ways. You may want to keep your music, movie, books and app purchases separate or you may want to unite them to avoid potentially paying for things twice.
    For Home Sharing I suggest you use just one ID, it doesn't matter who's it is, so long as you both use the same one, this will ensure that any device using home Sharing can see and play the content from anyone's library on the same network (regardless of which ID it uses for iTunes) that is logged into the same home sharing account.

  • I would like to be able to open up facebook and access the game Double Down Casino.  Can I do this without downloading an app?

    I am a new owner of an iPad!  So excited!
    Please help with a few questions:
    1.  Can I access the games Double Down Casino, Song Pop, etc. through facebook without downloading an app?  Every time I open fb and try to open these games, an app option pops up.  My friend has an iPad and downloaded the app, but cannot open the entire game using the app.  I want to have access to the entire game floor and be able to open gifts, etc. within the games, like I can on my pc.
    2. I would like to link several different email accts to the email app.  Can I do this, then choose the one I'd like to open?
    3. I have a Work Force printer/fax hooked up wirelessley.  How can I access this through my iPad to print material?
    4.  Any suggestions on good tutorial sites for the iPad?  I see there are some posted on YouTube.
    That is all for now!  Thanks for any help you can give me!

    1. Since that game is based on flash, probably not. The iPad doesn't natively support Flash although some third party browsers do. You'd have to experiment and see which ones work for you.
    2. You can enter various accounts into the mail app. I've linked three, no idea if there's a limit. BUt when you open the mail app, it downloads from all of them. However you choose which is the primary and that's what you send from.
    3. If that printer isn't an air print enabled printer, you'll need to use a third party app, either from the printer maker or something like print n share, print central or printopia
    4. No idea there. Sorry

  • Can I logoff from my iTunes and login using my family share id, download the apps that I want that waves to apps previously purchased before I linked family sharing

    Can I logoff from my iTunes and login using my family share id, download the apps that I want that were previously purchased before I linked family sharing with my unique Apple id, logout, and log back in with my Apple ID to have access to the apps?

    If you transfer any iTunes content to the iPhone from an iTunes library on another computer, all iTunes content on the iPhone will be erased first with a warning message provided indicating this beforehand.
    Authorize the different computer with your Apple ID with iTunes. With your iPhone connected and without syncing, right click on the iPhone under Devices in the iTunes source list and at the menu window that appears, select Transfer Purchases. This will transfer all apps on your iPhone to the iTunes library.

    My Hta will warn users that the following operations will format data.So "Create a temporary partition on the disk"--It is not for my requirement.

  • Want to export movie so people can watch without downloading quicktime

    I've made a friend a movie but she wants to watch it on her computer without downloading quicktime...what can I export the movie in so that people do not have to download quicktime.

    another, 'internal' option is:
    in iMovie: share/Export using Quicktime
    select in the drop-down mpeg4
    click option
    select in the drop-down h.264
    select a resolution
    select a bit-rate according this resolution, example: 1280x720 should be at last 6000 kbps ...
    such a h264.mp4 is fully compatible with Windows based systems of the last 4-5 years, or Linux, or on mediaplayers such as XBox or Playstation3, or Android phones, or ... etc ...
    keep in mind: long project, large resolution, high bitrate = file sizes of 50, 100, 500 MBs or even more!
    the upload-to-YouTube-option is imho the most convenient way.
    YT allows in its settings to make uploads 'private', so not the whole world is laughing about your attemps of skiing but just your invited friends and family ...

  • Previewing PDFs in Safari WITHOUT downloading

    Before downloading Adobe Creative Suite yesterday I was abe to preview in Safari (not Preview) without downloading them first. Then after downloading CS I got an error telling me there was a missing plugin. I researched the problem here and removed the offending Adobe plugin from my Library, but now when I click on a PDF instead of being able to preview it in Safari first and then decide if I need to download it, it just automatically downloads and opens on Preview. I'm in school and there are hundreds of PDFs we need to read. I don't want to have to download every one of them onto my local machine to read them...

    Hi George
    depending on if they're regular direct links - Option clicking them all is the quickest w/o adding any software.
    http://www.sitesucker.us/mac.html may be useful - you'd need to remove the non-pdf files afterwards, but that's very quick if Finder is displaying them by file type.
    I've seen a more customisable application, that you could likely say 'just pdf's from this page' to - if I recall it I'll post again.

  • Can I share my downloads on my iPad?

    Can I share my downloads to my iPad2 with my children's iPad2's? They live in different states. Or is it just to devices in my home?

    Allan,
    Do they have to bring their iPads here (to my house) to get synced or is just accessing my iTunes account and downloading what they want from my downloads (iBooks) ? They all live in differant states. Will they need my password?
    Sorry, these might seem like simple questions for those that are computer savvy, I'm just an old guy that isn't very computer smart.

    Additional Information:

    I'm using a PC to set it up.
    If you have any other questions feel free to ask and I'll help where I can.
    Thank you for any help

    (I think the daughter got he better end of the deal!)   I believe if you change the password and user id one of the devices it will stop that from occurring. But I'm not the one to tell you how to do it; someone like "Illaass" (Illaass seems to know how to correct / fix almost anything!) will know how if you don't. Just look for the "cat" icon.

  • Can i move an app from one computer to another without downloading it again?

    Is it possible to move an aplication downloaded from the App Store to a second computer without downloading it again. 
    I live in an area where internet access is via satellite or cell towers and two attempts to download Mountain Lion have failed, but still cost me a bunch in data usage. 
    Thanks

    The question was
    "Is it possible to move an aplication downloaded from the App Store to a second computerwithout downloading it again." but not tp split hairs but your answer was very opaque.

  • How can i add videos,movies and tv shows episodes to my ipod nano?I want to know whether i can directly add them through my pc or not without downloading them from i tunes store?

    how can i add videos,movies and tv shows episodes to my ipod nano?I want to know whether i can directly add them through my pc or not without downloading them from i tunes store?

    Yes, you can add your own videos to iTunes, then sync them to your nano, subject to supported max resolution limit and file type.  The specs for the 7th gen nano says (I don't know which nano model you have), Video Format Support
    "H.264 video: 720 by 576 pixels, 30 frames per second; Baseline, Main, and High-Profile level 3.0 with AAC-LC audio up to 256 Kbps; 48kHz; stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 Mbps, 720 by 576 pixels, 30 frames per second; Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 256 Kbps; 48kHz; stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats"
    http://www.apple.com/ipod-nano/specs.html
    (earlier nanos have lower max resolution limits)
    So, "HD" video is too high resolution, so iTunes will not sync such videos to the iPod (although they play in iTunes).  If you are asking how to set up iTunes to sync videos in general (regardless of source), please post back.

  • How can I open a PDF in my browser without downloading using Nitro Reader 3.5

    I use Nitro PDF exclusively for PDF viewing. I cannot figure out how to open a PDF in the Nitro Browser instead of always having to download everything.
    Not only PDF documents but software updates as well. Nothing opens up without downloading first.

    Hi,
    Please see the support article below:
    [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/view-pdf-files-firefox-without-downloading-them#w_using-a-pdf-reader-plugin Using a PDF reader plugin]
    You need to ensure that the default Action for opening PDFs is to use the Nitro plugin rather than Saving the file.
    Please let me know if that doesn't help.

  • I have paid for a film and can play it without downloading it on my iPad but I cannot seem to do this with my MacBook Pro. How do I do this?

    Hello all,
    I am looking for assistance with this. I have iTunes 11.1.5.
    I want to play movies I have purchased from the iTunes Store without downloading them as my storage is limited. I seem able to do this on my iPhone and iPad but it does not seem to be available on this MacBook Pro with OS X 10.9.2.
    I used to be able to do it as the film appeared as a box with a little cloud on the upper corner but they are not there anymore.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
    Many Thanks

    As to your question of only wanting to stream, I would think that within iTunes Preferences/Advanced you could deselect "Add to iTunes Media folder when adding to library. That way you would be storing your purchase in the cloud, rather than in your iTunes Media Library, no?
    I think no.   I think the movie is going to have to download.  I believe the only place to which movies stream is an AppleTV or if you are providing a source with Home Sharing.  Changing the preferences setting will only cause iTunes to leave items you add to the library in their original location instead og what it usually does which is put a copy in the media folder.  However, in the case of a download it will go there anyway since it will have to go somewhere and won't stay in its original location (i.e., Apple's server).
