Unable to turn on Advanced Search for viewing PDFs (v9.1) through IE7

Our company is currently using Acrobat 9.1 and Internet Explorer 7.
We have multiple PDF document sets set up to be searched using index files. The Index feature can only be accessed using the Advanced Search option of Acrobat Reader or Pro 9.1.
When we access the documents via our internal network, the advanced searching works fine. We can easily set the user's Acrobat Reader (or Writer) to have the Advanced Search option enabled.
However, if our users try to access these documents via our company's intranet web pages, the Acrobat Reader Interface plug-in (acropdf.dll?) of IE7 is fixed to only use the Basic Search option. Users are only able to search the active PDF. I have not found a way to enable the the Advanced Search option using the Adobe / IE7 interface.
Not that long ago, we thought this option was available.
Is there a way to turn this feature on or at least allow it to be enabled?
Thanks Much!

Hello,
This may be of interest to anyone whose had the Advanced Search Problem (or the mis-linking problem mentioned below) using the current Acrobat Plugin to IE7.
I think I have found a workaround for this problem (and another we've found). I've been having users test this out over the past couple of weeks and it's working fine.
Problem #1
Being unable to use index searching across multiple documents with the Acrobat Reader 9.1 plug-in interface running from within Internet Explorer version 7.0.    This current plug-in interface disallows setting up the Advanced Index Search feature that groups within our company use.
Problem #2
Links in PDF A are not properly linking to desired pages (link targets) in PDF B. Any links in PDF A will only take the user to Page 1 of PDF B. This occurs when any PDF links to a certain page (other than page 1) in another targeted PDF.
Solution:
Set the user's (many users in my case) Acrobat Reader (or Pro) to only open web based PDFs into the stand-alone Acrobat interface using the Accessibility Setup Assistant.
In Adobe Reader:
     Go to Document | Accessibility Setup Assistant.
     Advance through the dialogs to Screen 5 of 5.
     Turn OFF the feature Display PDF documents in web browser.
     Select Done.
     Exit Adobe reader.
In Adobe Acrobat Pro:
     Go to Advanced | Accessibility | Setup Assistant ...
     Advance through the dialogs to Screen 5 of 5.
     Turn OFF the feature Display PDF documents in web browser.
     Select Done.
Result:
Any PDFs embedded in a web page (environment) will open up in a new session of Acrobat (Reader or Pro) on the users desktop.
Searching via indexes works great and there are no linking problems between PDFs.
It may not be an optimal solution, but is working fine for our folks that access our files via our company's intranet.
The only drawback I see is that you lose focus of the IE7 session and have to work outside of it's containment. Although it is easy to set it back to the way it worked previously.
If anyone has any questions or comments, please let me know. I'm open to any improvements we can make to our process.
Thanks!
Dave

Expanded data in Advanced Search for UI

Hi Gurus,
what I wonder to know if where I can remove/change fields which compare if I click on the triangle on the left side of a promotion ID in the Advanced Search Result view.
At the present moment if I click on it I can see three sets of data: one for product of the Trade Promotion, one for Casual Product and the last one for Trade Spend.
If, for example, I want to delete the row for trade spend, how can I do it?
Full of point for an helpful answer!...
Thanks a lot,
best regards,
A.

Hi Carsten,
I will try to explain it better.
So when I search a Trade Promotion I have a little tringle on the left of the link to the Trade Promotion and clicking on it I can see the three objects I told you. I also had a look to the correspond context node and I found in the context node ADVANCEDSEARCHRESULT for TPMOE component the method GET_SUB_CNODE_DEFINITIONS the three calls to the three objects.
Is it the right path?
If I would like to hide one of them I should work in this method?
Thanks a lot,
best regards,
A.

Adobe reader does not work, what is best for viewing pdfs?

While using Safari, I keep encountering a message that in order to view a .pdf, I need to download Adobe Reader, accept the end user agreement, then relaunch. I have tried to do this many times and keep getting the above message. What program is best for viewing pdfs using Safari on an iMac

Back up all data.
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences 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. Otherwise do as follows.
Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (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, remove any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others.
If you still have the issue, repeat 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 again.

Organizer. not able to turn off "automatic search for missing files"

Organizer starts searching for missing files. files that i have deleted, and the programme just keep on forever searching for those already deleted files. When i try to turn off that function, the organizer just stops. Running the program on Imac 2010.

That's the thing with the Elements Organizer - once you start managing your media in it you must also use it for all subsequent maintenance so that it retains integrity.
To try and resolve the Find> all Missing Files crash problem go to File> Manage Catalogs and Repair your current catalog. Follow that with an Optimize. See if you can now find them without the crash.
If Find> All Missing Files is still causing a crash, you could try File> Reconnect> All Missing Files. As that searches your entire hard disk for one image at a time, and will take a very long time if you did a lot of deletions with your EasyDuplicateFinder program, wait for it to finish examining your catalog then cancel the attempt to find each image. Now in your organizer each of the missing files thumbnails will have a question mark at top left - you can then delete these from the catalog. After you've done quite a few retry Find> All Missing Files again to see if it will run without crashing.
Cheers,
Neale

Unable to turn cellular data on for apps

I'm running a 32GB iPhone 5C on 7.1.2 on Verizon.
before the last update I had gone over on my data allotment and then went into the cellular data settings and turned off the cellular data for almost every app I could. Some of these included the music app, podcast app, angry birds, google drive and documents, and just any app that I don't need sucking off my cellular data allotment.
well the 7.1.2 software update changed the settings (I don't know why Apple changes these things when there's no reason to, it's getting frustrating having to learn how to use my phone after each update) and you can no longer go into cellular data and flip the switch for all the apps on one single page. So now I have apps like the Podcasts and Google Apps that I open, am alerted the cellular data is turned off for them but when I click settings (the other option is just a confirmation of the message receipt) it takes me to a section in the settings that is no longer listing all my apps with the cellular data switch.
so my problem is that I've turned off cellular data, updated
software that for no reason neutered my ability to turn it on/off for individual apps, with no way to turn the cellular data back on for those apps. I can't imagine why Apple would do this, unless app developers were complaining to Apple that people were
turning cellular data off to avoid advertisements.
I have reset network settings, scoured the settings menu for options, tried most things suggested for other problems and still nothing. And I'm not going to reset my phone because as soon as I load my backup I'll be in the same boat. Oh I've also tried uninstalling and redownloading the apps as well.
and on a side note whoever put the . Button next to the space bar during certain keypad operations is an a hole because most of the searches I do look like this:
"What is the distance.to.the.moon"

so now I've done everything from resetting settings, resetting network settings, turning wifi off, turning phone in and off, messing with cellular data and background app refresh as well as notifications.
trying to use an app that has no cellular data while wifi is
off does not force the app to show up under Settings > Cellular Data.
it appears as though a lot of people are having this problem and sometimes the above mentioned things work and sometimes they don't. It looks like having Cellular Data turned off for
certain apps during an iO
God **** it now I have to write things in the Notes app and copy/paste them here because it's randomly not inputting my text and when I start typing it says "GGo" instead of Go, double typing the first letter. Why the **** doesn't Apple have a mobile app/setup of this?
Anyway it looks like if you have Cellular Data turned off for an app and do an iOS update it causes this bug. Sometimes the things above work, sometimes not. This is insanely frustrating.

N95 - Turn off the search for available wireless n...

Hi,
This is a strange problem - I think...
My N95, will at randon times, and not very often, automatically search for and detect wireless networks in my area, which will then prompt me to select one.
I have turned the Wireless LAN availability setting to never search for Wireless LANS - which was previously set to scan for networks every 5 minutes. (Under Tools-settings-connection-wireless LAN)
The bizarre thing about it all, is that it will often automatically search and detect wireless networks when my phone has been on charge for a long period of time, and not normally at any other period of time.
Does anybody know if there is a further setting somewhere that I could change? or perhaps point me in the right direction, but I do realise that this could well be a unique problem.
Any help on this would be very much appreciated.
Thanks.Message Edited by t2303 on 07-May-200710:58 PM

Hello. I have a wireless network at home and have connected my N95 in the past.
I did too turned off the ability to search for Wireless Networks from the STAND BY SCREEN but I have noticed that an icon with 4 squares appeared. I was puzzled and went through the manual to check what it meant. It meant that there were available wireless networks in the area close by, obviously my home network.
Note: since my N95 connects automatically to my network it never asked for a password or connection.
If the above sounds like your problem try the following:
Press the menu button and navigate to
Tools -> Settings -> Connection -> Wirelesl LAN
and set "Show WLAN availability" to NEVER.
This helped me on saving on battery.
I hope this helps. Good luck.

I would be greatfull for any help

I have managed to solve the problem.
In the end I didn't check if the values were empty, as it worked fine without. However the switch of the price didn't work in combination with the rest of the query.
I've solved the problem as follows:
$varCategory_rsgetsearch2 = "%";
if (isset($_GET['Category'])) {
$varCategory_rsgetsearch2 = $_GET['Category'];
$varMake_rsgetsearch2 = "%";
if (isset($_GET['Manufacturer'])) {
$varMake_rsgetsearch2 = $_GET['Manufacturer'];
$varColor_rsgetsearch2 = "%";
if (isset($_GET['Color'])) {
$varColor_rsgetsearch2 = $_GET['Color'];
$varPrice_rsgetsearch2 = "%";
if (isset($_GET['Keysound_price'])) {
$varPrice_rsgetsearch2 = $_GET['price'];
mysql_select_db($database_dBconn, $dBconn);
$query_rsgetsearch2 = sprintf("SELECT * FROM products WHERE Category LIKE %s AND products.Manufacturer LIKE %s AND products.Color LIKE %s", GetSQLValueString("%" . $varCategory_rsgetsearch2 . "%", "text"),GetSQLValueString("%" . $varMake_rsgetsearch2 . "%", "text"),GetSQLValueString("%" . $varColor_rsgetsearch2 . "%", "text") );
switch( $_GET['price'] ){
        case '0-500':
        $query_rsgetsearch2 .= ' AND price BETWEEN 0 AND 500 ORDER BY price ASC';
        break;
          case '500-1000':
        $query_rsgetsearch2 .= ' AND price BETWEEN 500 AND 1000 ORDER BYprice ASC';
        break;
                    case '1000-2000':
        $query_rsgetsearch2 .= ' AND price BETWEEN 1000 AND 2000 ORDER BY price ASC';
        break;
          case '2000':
        $query_rsgetsearch2 .= ' AND price BETWEEN 2000 AND 10000 ORDER BY price ASC';
        break;
$query_limit_rsgetsearch2 = sprintf("%s LIMIT %d, %d", $query_rsgetsearch2, $startRow_rsgetsearch2, $maxRows_rsgetsearch2);
$rsgetsearch2 = mysql_query($query_limit_rsgetsearch2, $dBconn) or die(mysql_error());
$row_rsgetsearch2 = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsgetsearch2);
I'm sure that you can keep the checking for values in, however for me the was no need for it anymore.
Thanks for all your help

It's so weird I can't turn off safe search for Google in new version of Firefox?

I was able to turn off the Google safe search in old version but in new version I can’t. I tried IE and I can turn off safe search. I don’t know what is wrong and it’s so weird. When I go to the page of safe search setting it shows and says (Turn on safesearch to filter sexually explicit content from your search results.) but the safe search is on already. Please somebody say something I am driving out of my mind. And the stupid thing is that I have to use IE for searching and use Firefox for other stuffs.

The problem is not Firefox - it's Google. They have changed the safesearch options.
The way round it is to add the word 'nude' or similar to your keywords. Then you'll get taken to an 'are you sure' type option before finally showing you your results.
More on these websites:

Why have my bookmarks been turned into Bing Searches for those sites? Why do I get a Bing Search when I manually type in the address?

Ever since I installed FireFox 4, I seem to have lost the function of my bookmarks. They simply open up Bing Searches for those sites. I don't even like Bing, why does it keep getting installed into my Firefox?
When I type in the address manually into the address bar (NOT the search bar), I get a Bing Search for the address as well.

I think an add-on has hijacked your browser. If this started with Firefox 4, are you sure you installed the official package from http://www.mozilla.com/ ?
In past threads similar to this, people mentioned a Zugo Search Bar, but I haven't dug into it deeply.
First, make a backup of your Firefox settings for safekeeping: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information].
Next, try starting Firefox in Firefox
[http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode]. Be careful not to "reset" anything permanently if you didn't back up.
Does running Firefox without add-ons fix it?
If so, you could disable them all and then gradually restore the ones that are most valuable to you.
If not, there might be some external software intercepting Firefox's communications.

Adjusting preferences in Preview for viewing pdfs

I would like to have the option to view the 1st page of my pdf next to the second page - not on its own (eg currently, for a 5 page document, mine only shows up as page 1, then p2+3, then P4+5. I would like it to show up at p1+2, then P3+4 then P5, etc. I know how to click between 1 page, and 2 pages and 2 pages continuous, but the 1st page is always on its own for all options.....I understand that in Adobe, you can set preferences for page set ups for viewing your pdf, which includes showig the 1st page with the next one:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/9.0/Standard/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd6151097941 95ff-7faf.w.html
However, the instruction for Apple is not working for me. My computer uses Preview and I do not see these options set out. I found another forum where this problem was discussed, but it was archived before being resolved and I am unable to find the new trail....
Any help appreciated.

Hi,
In Preview's View Menu there is PDF display.
The Two Pages option places two pages side by side.
However I have found it is not consistent with different PDFs.
(I also set the Preferences to 50% for PDF display)
Example
It seems to works once you are past the first page (Although I do have a 2 page document where it does not work).

Firefox will not use Adobe Reader for viewing PDFs

No matter how many times I am forced to manually browse the Adobe folder and select "Acrobat Reader 11" as my default application to handle PDF documents, Firefox never keeps that setting. In addition, Adobe Reader is never even a choice in the "Open with..." Browse button. When I try to let it use Adobe Acrobat (I have the CS6 Master Collection installed) with a rendered PDF, it doesn't even launch the application. I know those may be separate issues, but they are both equally frustrating PDF errors.

You can change the action for Portable Document Format (PDF) from Preview in Firefox to use another application like the Adobe Reader or set to Always Ask in "Firefox > Options/Preferences > Applications".
You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable the build-in PDF viewer.
You can check the value of the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types pref on the about:config page and remove the application/pdf part if present or reset the pref to the default via the right-click context menu.

How to search for all PDF files on my hard drive

How can I search for all of a file type on my hard drive without getting documents that happen to have the text in them? i.e. PDF or DOC or XLS
Thank you

Put the search term in quotes, and do not forget the . (dot)

Advanced Search Save View loses search criteria

I have a custom page with a table based on a simple VO in a query region with the following search properties
Construction Mode = resultsBasedSearch
Include Simple Panel = false
Include Views Panel = true
Include Advanced Panel = true
Intitial Panel = Advanced.
The AM is not being retained.
The advanced serach criteria works well however when I save the view and then subsequently use it ALL rows get returned and the query criteria seems to get lost?
Am I doing something wrong?

Hi naren, You are correct . This will solve the problem.
I made user paersonalization = true for the table and it worked.
