Stupid question: Does Acrobat X1 exist as a standalone product?

Total Newbie. Forgive me. I need Acrobat for a writing project. I can't seem to find a simple purchase and download option for a basic standalone software package. I've never run into so many dead ends trying to make a simple purchase. Everything seems to be tied up in some sort of cloud membership requiring monthly payments. I just want a program that can edit pdf files. Nothing fancy. Does this even exist? Thanks in advance for pointing me in the right direction.

Hi dinsdale,
Yes Acrobat 11 exists as a standalone product for US $449.00
You can purchase it from : Pricing | Adobe Acrobat XI

Stupid question - does iCloud need to be installed on the same pc as your iTunes account?

I have Windows XP on my laptop where my iTunes are housed but I have Windows 7 on my desktop...is there anything I can do (other than load iTunes to my desktop?) Or, does it really matter? Will I still be able to sync with the cable from iPhone and iPad to the laptop even without iCloud?

No, Find my friends would need to be installed, you change the device being followed from the find my friends settings. It could be either device being followed depending on the settings, not which was last logged in, you can choose any device to follow from any device, the chanes are then synced across all devices.

Stupid question: Does iLife come with server software purchase?

I am considering moving to a server setup and also want to use the same machine as a workstation.
Does the server purchase also get all the features of OS X?
Mac Pro 2.66/6 gig Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Are you referring to the purchase of XServe - the computer, or XServer - The OS?
I don't know about the retail box of XServer - the OS, but the XServe - the computer that I bought in February did not come with iLife.
I wouldn't use my XServe as a workstation anyway, it's optimized for throughput (incredibly fast throughput - wheeee) not for day-to-day operations.
Hope this helps.

Or does it work without any problems, to setup two IDs on the same computer??

This is probably a stupid question, but what does the red circle with a number in it mean on iCal? It looks just like the emails notification. I do not have anything do or up in my cal.

This is probably a stupid question, but what does the red circle with a number in it mean on iCal? It looks just like the emails notification. I do not have anything do or up in my cal.

Actually, another person on the "more like this" had the right answer. It meant I had a notification for an invite that I needed to respond to.
Hope this helps you as much as it helped me.

My Apple ID asks for answers to security questions which I never input. I have searched how to reset my security questions and have found that the option below where your answers are to be input to reset questions does not exist on my iPhone 5c

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Apple security question Provider does no longer exist

I am in a bit of pinch here. I forgot my Apple-ID Security Questions and the email-address in which to reset or get the answers from does no longer exist. therefore I want to know:
1. Can I with my Apple rights change the "Back-Up" e-mail address somehow?
2. Do I have to call the support to solve that problem?
3. If I dig out my Computer on which I created the ID, do you think it would solve anything?
thanks in advance

Possible Stupid Question on Aliases

We're on iMS/SunONE 5.2. What I've yet to figure out is how to do something so simple that I may be overlooking the obvious solution. This is to duplicate what /etc/aliases does in sendmail. I.E take an email address which does not match a particular existing user and deliver that message to the specifed recipient. There are two aspects of this which I need to address.
1) Delivery of inbound mail if account is local. For example... [email protected] to [email protected] I think I understand this as I just need to add an alternate address for bob.jones into the ldap. Not centralized but the concept makes sese.
2) Forwarding of inbound mail to other mail servers. For example [email protected] to [email protected].edu where our.listserv.edu is handled by a seperate mail server. In this case the /etc/aliases file sendmail uses makes this dirt simple. Unfortunately i've poured through the iMS docs and have yet to find how to do this. It may have to do with terminology as I'm not sure what iMS calls this type of proceedure. We have many of these (hundreds) and not having a centralized way of handling these would be very very difficult. What is the solution here?
Thanks,
-Patrick

Not a stupid question at all, I fought with the same concept coming from sendmail. The concept is that it's simple to redirect mail using the aliases file (/etc/mail/aliases) and it only took one line to do it.
Under iMS you need to expand your mind and accept that ldap is <insert deity> and everything is done differently.
Alias entries need to be adapted to one of -
individual accounts (mailalternateaddress)
or
a new ldap entry with it's forward settings going to your other addresses.
or
a mail list, for local one to many distributions.
This applies to direct ldap and dirsync mode, however if you're running in dirsync mode, ensure you run the dirsync after making changes.
Finally, if you create an aliases file in -
<msg-home>/config/aliases
and you are thorough on the addresses, they still work.
Just my experience, search for "aliases" in the forum.

What is workflow minimum? (stupid questions from rookie)

Guys,
we are evaluating Oracle workflow. If you could help us to answer some of the stupid questions we have - it would help us a lot.
1. There are two parts of Workflow installation - DB and midtier. Is it possible to use workflow without installing midtier? Our understanding - midtier is used for providing web access for the users to the workflow engine: they can approve/reject, check workflow status etc. But is it possible to perform all these tasks via email only or by building some simple user interface in our existing webtier (which is not based on Oracle webserver, though is using Oracle for the DB layer)
2. We were not able to configure other schema to have access to workflow successfully - though it looks like this schema has all possible privs set. If we are trying to call wf_engine.LaunchProcess - we are getting privs error. If we call it from the workflow schema - everything is working fine. Does anybody have any successful experience in doing this?
Thanks a lot everybody for help!

Hi,
I do not consider myself an expert at Workflow, but I will attempt to answer your questions (which are not stupid questions by any means)...
I will answer question 1 in two parts as it is essentially two questions.
1. "Is it possible to use workflow without installing midtier"
Workflow is a module inside the Database that is an optional installation.
No middle-tier needs to be installed as such.
The middle-tier I believe you are referring to is the Workflow Monitor, this is viewed by configuring either the:
- Database HTTP server DAD to display the Workflow Monitor
or
- Application Server HTTP Server DAD to display the Workflow Monitor
Configuring the Workflow Monitor for the Administrators is a very good idea.
Normal users do not normally need to view this page, but read-only acess can be setup (ie. the users connect as a user without the ADMIN role)
1. "But is it possible to perform all these tasks via email"
Using Workflow Notifications, emails can be sent to users where they can approve/reject.
2. We were not able to configure other schema to have access to workflow successfully
I am not sure why you are not successful here... have you granted execute on wf_engine.LaunchProcess to the other schema?
Cheers,
Degan.

Stupid question re iTunes match and family sharing

So, here is my dilemma...we have a large family and a ton of os devices--iphones, iPads, apple tv's, iMacs, MacBooks, etc. Up until now, we have set everyone up on the same apple id, which has been crazy--my and my wife's phone ringing with the kids' FaceTime calls, me not being able to sign into iTunes match because there were too many devices associated with our account, and so on. Now, wit the upgrade to iOS 8, my wife's phone is ringing when I receive calls and vice versa. So, I was looking into the family sharing, but am not sure how that affects iTunes match. I want to keep my iTunes match, because I have a huge music library and enjoy being able to listen to my music anywhere. I guess my questions is, what is the best way to set up my accounts now? Keep my apple id for my iOS devices, and set everyone else up as a "family member" under sharing with them having their own apple id's? If so, what does that do to my iTunes match library? can I keep iTunes match and still have family sharing on? I don't care if I can share my music library with everyone in my family, but what I do care about is that I don't want to lose my access to iTunes match and my entire library, some of which consists of songs downloaded 7 years ago. I know it's a stupid question, but as much as I've read and searched, I still haven't found the answer to my question. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Sounds very bad... you can try this, create a account for each member of the family, delete all products (leave all your devices as new) and put the accounts in the devices again, for example, this iPad is from the kid, put the Apple ID of the kid in her iPad, after, this iPhone is from your wife, put the Apple ID from your wife in her iPhone. But remember, the purchases save in the Apple IDs when the family use before, for change the purchases contact with Apple.

Probably a stupid question about cropping a video..

OK, so I shot an interview with a black background and once I went to edit it, I noticed a red object in the far right corner. Is there a way I can add black over this object or crop it out? I know this is a stupid question, but I'm new to video and editing in general so I thought it wouldn't hurt to ask.

There are several ways to accomplish what you want.
KGCW has talked about the Crop Effect.
Depending on exactly where the object is, and whether the camera was locked down, it might be possible to duplicate your Clip, place it above your initial Clip, then offset it a bit (Motion>Position), with the Fixed Effect>Motion>Position, and then apply the Garbage Matte to that offset duplicate, effectively Cropping out everything, but a small "patch" from the existing background. Note: if the edges of that Garbage Matte are too hard for you, you could create a soft-edged Track Matte, and use that to hold out the rest of the offset duplicate.
Another method, and depending on where, and how large the offending item is, would be to go to the Fixed Effect>Motion, and use Motion>Scale to increase the size of the Clip (do not do too much Scale, or quality will suffer). You might also need to do a bit of Motion>Position, to get that red object behind the Video's Frame Size. This will effectively Crop the object.
Good luck,
Hunt

Probably a stupid question

just got a macbook pro and want to be able to use the webcam to chat with my hubby on his PC when he is out of town on business. he does NOT have a webcam so we need to know what kind he can get that will allow us to talk and see each other. i know this is probably a stupid question but we are new at this.....

Welcome to Apple Discussions, bevs
Any PC webcam that is compatible with your hubby's PC system, (Windows?) OS, and chat software will work. Best suggestions will come from the "Help" pages for his chat applications software.
For you to be able to video chat with your hubby, it is important that you choose applications software that offers "cross-platform" (Mac to PC) video chat capability. There are several choices available, but Skype probably currently offers the best balance between ease of use and reliability in free cross-platform video apps.
Whichever apps (and camera) you and hubby choose, everything must be compatible with your respective computers and operating systems. I mention this because your posted system info shows macbookpro Mac OS X (10.0.x). Mac OS X (10.0.x) is now five major upgrades old. No MacBook Pros shipped with Mac OS X (10.0.x), so I expect that your system info just needs to be updated. However, if I am wrong, you will need to upgrade your Mac OS to use Skype, because Skype's System Requirements show you must use Mac OS X v10.3.9 Panther or later. I do not know any video chat apps that work with Mac OS X (10.0.x).
In order to use Skype, both you and your hubby will need to download and install your respective versions of the Skype software. Skype offers free AV connections between computers (although its website seems to concentrate on its for-fee telephone connection service,) it is easy for most users to configure and set up, and it offers cross-platform audio with its video chat. (Not all video chat apps offer simultaneous audio.)
Your iSight will work with Skype, as will most PC webcams for your hubby. For more information now, or for help if you encounter problems using Skype later, Skype offers comprehensive support that includes a dedicated Skype Forum as well as technical support directly from Skype in addition to its online FAQ and Knowledge-base.
If you decide to go with Skype, your hubby can get Skype-specific suggestions for PC webcams here.
Please let us know if you need any other info before you can mark your question "Answered." We will be happy to try to offer more focused suggestions for your specific questions.

Why does Acrobat 11 open cached or "ghost" versions of my PDFs?

Here's my work flow...
Save a PDF from an Illustrator doc/open PDF in Acrobat to sanitize/email PDF
-get revision request-
Revise same Illustrator file/save as a PDF/open PDF in Acrobat and it views as the original PDF!
When I "quick look" on the desktop the PDF displays the revised comp. So my question is why does Acrobat 11 keep the cached image of the PDFs and how can I prevent this? Quitting Acrobat will fix the issue once so if I go to revise the same file for a 3rd, 4th time it'll show the cached version every time.

If you choose 'Preserve Illustrator editing' when exporting from AI, it actually embeds the entire AI file inside the PDF as a hidden attachment. Opening the PDF in Illustrator it will ignore the 'real' PDF content and open the AI object instead, so you never see the changes from Acrobat.

Stupid question: Does Acrobat X1 exist as a standalone product?
