  • Zip file will not open

    How do I open zip files?

    You can't open them with Adobe Reader.
    Do a Google search on "Unzip files iPad".

  • How can I Unzip files on Ipad

    I have just started playing with my ipad and opened a mail with a zipped file attached. The Ipad would not unzip so I went to Maczip and tried to download, everything looked OK, but then I got a message saying Safari could not open the file

    Yes, you can unzip files on an iPad. get the app Airsharing HD, and you can open zipped files in airsharing from email, or from safari.

    Sorry, should have said you can't unzip without an application

  • Why can I not open an unzipped keynote file folder on my iPad or MAC?

    Why does my keynote file get converted into a folder and get zipped when I try and e-mail it?  It didn't used to be like this?  It used to be just a .key file.
    Then as a result this creates a problem in trying to transfer the keynote file to another iPad.  The other iPad cannot pull the newly converted folder into Itunes because Itunes only allows you to upload a single file and not a folder.  Plus, I can't open the file on a Mac either.  It says keynote file not supported.
    Any suggestions?

    There was an option in the Old Keynote "Save new documents as packages". If it's off, the document would be automatically zipped. As a result, you couldn't "Show Package" on it.
    if you selected it, it would save as a package and you could "Show Package"
    This second one is what the new Keynote is doing and there's no option otherwise. SO, I believe you'll have to .zip the file yourself before emailing in order for it to send successfully. However, I'll have to play around a bit more specifically with the iPad interactions.
    OH, just thought about another option. Have you tried sharing via iCloud instead? It provides a link that can be pasted in an email and loaded from both Mac's and iPads (and PC's if they have a recent browser, it'll load in iWork for iCloud).

  • Step by Step guide for upload iPad only apps

    Please note that this is not derived from me alone.
    This Knowledge is derived from three forum members, DutyFarm, ChoosingNameCanBeSoXXX & Dei_Machiavelli.
    I just add the solution for generate the .xcent file.
    [Atleast enough for me to make it work.]
    Welcome that if anyone find that this step by step guide not detail enough, you can copy and add more points and post again.
    Step 1:
    Make sure that all the Icons for the iPad are accounted for because if you don't, Application Loader will Scream
    [For some strange reason, you have to add the Old iPhone Icon Size as well]:
                             Old iPhone: 57 by 57 [Icon]
                 Start Up Icon for iPad: 72 by 72 [Icon-iPad.png].
    SpotLight Search for iPad Must Have: 48 by 48 [Icon-iPad-spot.png]
    Step 2:
    Load the Mac, unzip your *.ipa file, place the *.app file on your desktop and modify its internal Info.plist file.
    Change 3.0 to 3.2 here:
    <key>MinimumOSVersion</key>
    <string>3.2</string>
    Step 3:
    Because after you change the Info.plist file by your own way, the file will changed to wrong codesign.
    So that will need this step to change it back to right codesign which can success upload to apple store.
    Create this weird NameOfYourApp.xcent file on your desktop:
    That strange 10 digit is the App ID:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
    <plist version="1.0">
    <dict>
        <key>application-identifier</key>
        <string>APP_ID_Letters_&_NUMBER_HERE.com.whatever.YourAppName</string >
        <key>get-task-allow</key>
        <true/>
    </dict>
    </plist>
    Step 4:
    Now Type this in Terminal:
    /usr/bin/codesign -f -s "iPhone Distribution: Yours Distribution Cert Name" "--resource-rules=/Users/ABC/Desktop/YourAppName.app/ResourceRules.pl ist" --entitlements "/Users/ABC/Desktop/YourAppName.xcent" "/Users/ABC/Desktop/YourAppName.app"
    iPhone Distribution: Yours Distribution Cert Name  << This you can check back at your Cert in  Keychain.
    /Users/ABC/Desktop/ : here is assume that your username in you Mac OS is ABC. But more easily, you can put all the file at any path you want.
    I just put all files at the iPad folder at system disk root. so that the path just /iPad/ .
    OK, if no error come out, congrats that you are done. You can upload the app by Application Loader. (Assume that you know what is it, and need to zip you .ipa before upload)
    BUT, LIKE ME and some member here, we see two error after the Step 4 command as below:
    /Users/kevs/Desktop/MyApp.xcent: unrecognized blob type (accepting blindly)
    /Users/kevs/Desktop/MyApp.xcent: invalid length in entitlement blob
    After few night try..... finally I found out the solution and just successfully submit the iPad App!!!
    The main problem was we used a wrong method to create that stupid MyApp.xcent file!!!!
    I used many many method, use Mac text editor, Window notepad, Mac/ Window Dreamweaver as .xml......
    but all facing the strange "invalid length in entitlement blob"
    why invalid length?!?! so I try to search for what is .xcent..... finally I found the following webpage
    http://www.246tnt.com/iPhone/
    it's talk about codesign and entitlement files.
    then..... I FOUND .xcent NOT ONLY A SAMLPE TEXT FILE!!!!!
    in the middle of the link above, there are a highlighted simple script , which is a python script to help us generate a .xcent entitlement file!!!!!
    Here is step by step solution to solve this error:
    1) just download the .py file here: simple script
    2) put the .py file anywhere you like, or just simply put in the root of you mac
    3) turn on the Terminal (in /Applications/Utilities), goto the folder where you put the .py
    4) TYPE: python gen_entitlements.py 5C297XXXXX.com.yourdomain.MyApp myApp.xcent
        Where 5C297XXXXX.com.yourdomain.MyApp is your AppID with BundleID,
        myApp.xcent is the file will be generate to you
    5) Finally you can see the .xcent which make me nearly crazy for a week!!!!!!!!
    6) Use this .xcent file to run that codesign script (Step 4 above)
    7) Congratulation the codesign changed and you can zip your app and upload it
    I have spent many hours for this simple stuff.........so sad........>.<
    Hope this post can help all guys who still mad on this error when trying to upload a iPad only apps.
    Good luck!!

    I think I followed everything very closely, but I am getting these errors when trying to run the codesign script
    here is my script command:
    /usr/bin/codesign -f -s "iPhone Distribution: Nethercottage Games, LLC" "--resource-rules=/Users/BATC/Desktop/book1.app/ResourceRules.plist" --entitlements "/Users/BATC/Desktop/book1.xcent" "/Users/BATC/Desktop/book1.app"
    Here is the error I get:
    /Users/BATC/Desktop/book1.app: replacing invalid existing signature
    codesign_allocate: object: /Users/BATC/Desktop/book1.app/book1 malformed object (unknown load command 9)
    /Users/BATC/Desktop/book1.app: object file format invalid or unsuitable
    Any help on this please?

  • My Pages app for iPad tells me I can't open a document and even iCloud won't let me download it to my Mac, how can I recover my document?

    I really don't know what happened to Pages. First I was using the app, working on a document and everything was fine. I updated it a couple of times and there was no problem. Then, when I tried to open it once more snd continue to work with it, a message appeared telling me that the document had been modified in other iPad. Usually this would make sense but not this time because this file was only used on my iPad. So I chose to keep the document version created on my iPad and **** got loose since then. The document could't open, every time I tried, a message told me "The file cannot be open", so I read A LOT of what to do in this horrible case and tried to open it via iTunes but the option withbthe little arrow that usually works for send the file via e-mail, or to dropbox, or to print appear like I can't use it for anything so most of my options and hopes died. Then on a Mac I tried to dowñoad the file to see if there I could open it or at least change the file code from .pages to .zip and then unzip it but I can't even dowload it form iCloud so you see, I'm desperate. I need help, please! The document is very very important so could you tell me how can I recover it?

    Having the same issue, can someone please enlighten us?

    Hi,
    If your OS is Linux you can update Firefox using the Package Manager / Software Center. After opening the Manager type '''firefox''' in the search area, tick '''firefox''' in the results and apply. You may also be asked to accept additional new dependencies.
    or
    You can directly download the latest version for Linux here: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
    It is a zip package and you have to unzip it and run the script file named '''firefox''' inside the unzipped folder. You have to go inside this folder every time to run this file or you can create a link to the '''firefox''' file on the desktop. In this case please note that the old Firefox installation will still exist and the usual links will open that instead of the new one.

  • How to show a blank or clear cell for the first entry in a numbers pop-up menu on a mac. I can do it on the iPad but not on the mac. Thank you.

    Can you please advise how to show a blank or clear cell as the first option in a pop -up menu on a Mac, I can see how on an IPad but but not on the Mac.
    Thank you.

    Hi grm,
    Yvan Koenig wrote an Applescript to create an popup menu with a true blank menu item. You can find it in Yvan's Box Account public area. Click on for_iWork'09, then for-numbers'09, then look for and download popup_with_nil.zip. Unzip the file, then open it with ScriptEditor.
    Yvan's scripts include instructions (in French and English) on how and where to save the script and how to use it. I haven't read this one recently, so I can't give you any further details on it.

    You can find many themes at https://github.com/hdoria/xcode-themes  There's a download zip button on the right side of the page.
    Unzip and and copy the .dvtcolortheme files into /Users/YourUsername/Library/Developer/XCode/UserData/FontAndColorThemes Create the directory if it doesn't exist.
    If you can't find the Library directory you can get to it by using Finder's "Go to Folder..." option under "Go" or press shift + cmd + G then type the path.

  • Why do some videos from some website stop working after seconds or minutes on a new iPad

    I subscribe to some website posting videos. The videos will start as it should and then stop after, sometimes seconds, and sometimes minutes after the beginning.
    The iPad is less than 3 weeks old. it is already the second. The first was a 16 GB this one is a 32 GB. no difference. This issue does not happen with only one website but other posted videos from other websites.

    This and other answers helped me to understand better why I cannot view these videos and search for answers. I found that the videos posted by this website end in .cfm, and doing research cfm is Adobe and is not compatible with apple software ? why this is not resolved is surprising to me - Several other people experience the same issue as I (dating 2007-to 2013) I am not computer literate but I know how to find information on the web and know +or -  how to use the programs. There seems to be nothing that will convert these videos into a format that the iPad could process and allow. should I buy quicktime for my windows device and transfer/sync it to the ipad (?)(3 weeks old I paid $900) will this work. I have tried to upgrade the firmware to my router but no luck there either; even following all the steps religiously. the unzip is not working? I get a file the upgrade button rejects.
    if it is this cfm format that is doing that, then there is no reason to spend x$ into a new router : the issue will remain the same- is this statement correct ?
    your help is greatly appreciated.

  • I made a photo book in iPhoto and would like to transfer the book to my iPhoto on other macs and iPad.   How is this done and can it be synced between devices like photo stream.

    I made a photo book in iPhoto and would like to transfer the book to my iPhoto on other macs and iPad.   How is this done and can it be synced between devices like photo stream?

    You can create a Quicktime movie slideshow of the book's pages and share that. Here's how to get your book into an iPhoto slideshow and then export as a Quicktime video:
    1 - While viewing the book type Command+P to start the print process.
    2  - click on the PDF button and select "Save PDF to iPhoto".
    Note:  If you don't have any of those options go to Toad's Cellar and download these two files:
    Save PDF to iPhoto 200 DPI.workflow.zip
    Save PDF to iPhoto 200 DPI.workflow.zip
    Unzip the files and place in the HD/Library/PDF Services folder and reboot.
    3 - select either of the files above (300 dip is used for photos to be included in a book that will be ordered).
    4 - in the window that comes up enter an album name or select an existing album and hit the Continue button.
    That will create a 200 or 300 dpi jpeg file of the item being printed and import it into iPhoto. Immediately select all of the photos in the new album and sequentially renumber them as "Page  " using the Batch Change ➙ Title to Text with the option to add a sequential number to each title.  This is to let you put the pages back in the correct order in the event they get sorted incorrectly.
    Now you can proceed as follows: create the slideshow in iPhoto and export it out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar.  Select Size = Medium or Large (480p with iPhoto 9),
    Happy New Year

  • What will happen if I compress my Itunes folder? will it cause the information within to be unusable with syncing and such? Or will i have to unzip this folder everytime i want to sync my i phone or i pad?

    If I compress my entire iTunes folder, will it make the information in that folder unreachable for syncing my iPhone, iPad 2, etc.... Or will compressing this folder and turning it into a zip file make it that whenever I want to sync something I would need go in and unzip the zip file if there is an update to an older application, or if I wanted to add music to my iPhone from my library which is not already on there?
    any information would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    yes. you won't be able to use iTunes at all.
    if you're running low on space on your boot drive, get an external HD and move your library there.

  • Can I unzip the .ipa file and edit the application.xml file

    I want to modify the below info to also have an additional string value of 2, which somewhere along the line tells something somewhere that the app can run on the ipad. Is there some info in the compiled application that will error out if I modify this document?
    <InfoAdditions>
    - <![CDATA[ <key>UIDeviceFamily</key><array><string>1</string></array> ]]>
    </InfoAdditions>
    into this
    <InfoAdditions>
    - <![CDATA[ <key>UIDeviceFamily</key><array><string>1</string><string>2</string></array> ]]>
    </InfoAdditions>

    you can change the file extension to zip, unzip it, find the application.xml file in one of the subdirectories, edit it, rezip the files, change the file extension to ipa and install.

  • Adobe Reader 10.2.0 (58582) on iPad 2 with iOS 5.1.1 (9B206) dies rendering USGS topo maps

    I downloaded Adobe Reader today from the app store because I wanted to look at some high resolution, multi-layered topo maps with Cub Scouts on my iPad 2 and I figured that Adobe Reader would be the best app for the job.
    Example: http://ims.er.usgs.gov/gda_services/download?item_id=5258723&quad=Boone&state=NC&grid=7.5X 7.5&series=TNM%20GeoPDF
    The link above is to a zipped copy of a PDF... Safari will not open it directly. So, I unzipped it and put a copy of it on a web server: https://www2.ecrsoft.com/boone.pdf
    Safari will download that, but when I open it in Adobe Reader, the app disappears (presumable crashes) after rendering the first few layers. I really wish it'd work, because Safari is really slow to render the graphics when you zoom in.
    The device has 512 MB RAM... it should be able to handle these files. I know the PDF file is OK. It works in the latest Windows version of Adobe Reader.
    Help me Adobe.

    Hi Matthew,
    The issue appears to be that the file takes quite a bit of memory to render. We're continuously making optimizations in how we manage memory during rendering. I have some good news and bad news. I tested the boone.pdf (an awesome file that I'll keep for testing) in our upcoming release (10.2.1) and it opens there (on my ipad 2 with ios 5.1.1). It renders considerably slower on my iPad 3 since the resolution is doubled there, but still doesn't crash. We're awaiting approval from apple on that 10.2.1 release, so please keep on the lookout for updates. Thanks for the file!

  • Bought HDMI adapter to play movies from my iPad but it will stop every few minutes, Bought HDMI adapter to play movies from my iPad but it will stop every few minutes

    Once I begin to play a movie from my iPad to the TV using the HDMI adapter it will pause and lose sound every few minutes.  I am using the video app and the movie plays fine if not connected.
    I have also checked to make sure that everything is connected properly.

    Well, I thought it was solved... or at least solved enough to live with. I had originally installed 2.6.31 from testing to try and fix this issue, and it substantially improved, but now it's gotten worse again. At home on a WPA network, it drops maybe once or twice a day. Here on this unencrypted network, it's going out once or twice every half hour. Same error messages as above.
    I tried reinstalling, but ended up with the same errors almost right away. This bites!
    Anyone have any other ideas to try?
    Thanks,
    Scott
    EDIT: I tried rebuilding rt2x00-rt71w-fw from source. PKGBUILD has the incorrect source link. So I actually went to the ralink site, downloaded the (hopefully correct) driver package, unzipped it and copied rt73.bin to /usr/lib/firmware --overwrote the existing copy. I haven't got any errors yet, but it's only been 20 minutes so far. We'll see. I'm not sure if it's the identical rt73.bin that's currently in the repos or if it's different. Forgot to compare the two before I overwrote the old one.
    EDIT2: No luck with the different rt73.bin. Also tried the new Ubuntu karmin beta and got the same errors -- and a freeze when I pulled the adapter out when it stopped working.
