Viewing all pdf's (or .mov etc) by SIZE

hi guys.
i am new to mac and seem to have run into some kind of problem where printing to pdf creates 40 or 50 or 60 MB sized pdf's even if these are only 10 pages or so?!
is it possible to restrict Finder or something like WhatSize to show me only pdf's or 'mov files etc WITH THEIR SIZE?
i would like to look at these while also seeing which ones are taking up the most space and I can't find out how to do this in Finder/Spotlight.
thanks
p.s. is there a Spotlight Forum?

Hi bellingenbob,
Please let me know what version of Adobe Reader you are using.
You might need to choose 'Check for Updates' option under the Help menu to use the latest version of Reader i.e. 11.0.10
Also, tell me whether you are viewing the PDFs through 'Preview' or first download the files and then open with Reader.
Try disabling protected mode from Edit> Preferences> Security (Enhanced) and check.
Hope to hear from you.
Regards,
Anubha

HT204382 Help! I just followed all instructions . . . downloaded DivX on my MacBook Pro so that I can view all of the avi movies but it still won't let me see them. When I bring down the file and get info I can view it in the little box that only that.

Okay so . . . just bought a new Mac OS X because my last MacBook Pro burned up. I was luckily able to put everything on an external hard drive. But when I try to play my movies from the hard drive or any other DVD that were downloads that are AVI it says "QuickTime Player can't open "Genetic Roulette_(360p).avi" because a required codec isn't available." So I went ahead and followed the instructions and download the DivX but it still will not play. Can anyone out there help me?

Download and install VLC. http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html and get rid of DivX.

I recently had to switch with my sister from Mac to PC, and I have all my songs, apps, movies,etc. on my iTunes on my mac. How do I transfer the contents of the other library to my new computer?

I really want to transfer all my content of my iTunes library like apps for my iPhone and also music to my new library on my new PC computer. Is there any way that I can do this?

Copy the entire iTunes Media folder in My Documents>My Music>iTunes and put it in the same location on your new computer. Then open iTunes and go to File>Add to library, and select all the stuff there that you want to add to your iTunes.

How do you run to Drives on the same screen. I installed a ssd and a hhd to my mac but i can only view the content of the drive only if i boot of that drive. Im try to have my ssd for fast boots and hhd for my music,movies etc. Please help.

I installed a samsung 840 pro SSD to my primary slot and relocated my 1.5 TB HDD to a data double where my optical drive was. I transfered my apps and Mac OS X to my SSD for fast boots and all my itunes movies, music, Iphoto etc to my HDD. I rebooted off my SSD then seen all the data on my HHD itunes movies, music, iphotos etc i cannot view on my SSD. So my question is how do you view all the content on both the ssd and hdd on the same screen with having to boot off one or the other?

No, what I'm saying is that once you boot into OSX, you should be able to see both drives listed. If you don't then either OSX is hiding the other drive because it sees it as a boot drive and is trying to protect the contents from novice users or there's another problem. If it's the first thing (i.e. it's a protection thing), then your only option would be to boot into the old drive, copy off all your personal data to an external backup drive, then reboot into the SSD and go into Disk Utilities and wipe/reformat the second drive so that you can see it as a regular secondary drive. Then when you see it as that, you can copy your data back to it.
Be carefull poking around in Disk Utility as you can easily lose your data. It's possible the Mac just isn't mounting that second drive because it sees it as another boot drive. Whatever you do, don't accidentally erase it without getting a copy of your data off of it because you obviously don't have that on your SSD now.

Hi - just using the new iMovie for the first time - apparently there should be a sidebar containing tools like "Content Library". Not on mine - even in Window view, Content Library features like text etc are all greyed out - obviously it's me - help?

Sorry - I should have added that I have imported a Quicktime movie, originally created as an iPhoto slideshow.
I want to create rolling credits at the movie end and apparently you can only do this using iMovie - can you help please?

How do I view all Components the page of a PDF doc?

I'm using the text touch-up tool to make a correction to a document which is auto-generated through an internal system as a very complex pdf document.
The text disappears behind another component as if it's being pushed below another panel.
Is there a tool which would allow me to view a PDF document in much the same way that Word has a tool.
I'm not so much wanting to edit the document now but more would like to understand how these components are being placed together.
Something that would allow me to see a document and see whether an item was text or whether an item was some type of graphic which cannot be edited.
Thanks,
Mike

Not able to view Stamps in all .pdfs

Hi Adobe Community!
I'm not able to consistently view stamps in pdf's I have to review, both directly on the browser and on the application.
Before understanding stamps were an Adobe feature, I uninstalled and installed different version of Java (currently 1.6.0_41), Internet Explorer (currently IE8). When I understood it was Adobe, I installed the latest version (11.0.2), but still it does not show in all pdf's. I have Windows 7 Enterprise 32-bits SP1.
I know stamps are in a certain pdf because a colleague of mine can see them displayed once he opens the file. Opening the exact same file, I don't see them. On another pdf, I can see stamps. The only difference I find between both pdf's, is that the one where I can see stamps is "PDF Version: 1.6 (Acrobat 7.x)", and the one I can't is "PDF Version: 1.4 (Acrobat 5.x)".
Is there any Acrobat compatibility plug-in I'm missing? What can be the reason?
Thank you!

I faced same kind of problem some time back & found JInitiator as the cause. Try unintalling older Installation of JInitiator & reinstall it & it should work.

I'm wondering if there is any way to view the results of the form other than in a table? Is it possible to print responses one by one in PDF format, or word, etc? I'd like to create a form for proposal applications, and the spreadsheet format results are nearly unusable for this type of form.

Hi Nalani500 ,
Yes, you can print the response in a PDF by following the steps suggested below.
1) Go to the response file
2) Select the response you want to print
3) Click on Save as PDF button and it would save the selected response in PDF format.
Thanks,

I just updated my Mac Mini to the newest version of itunes and itunes no longer reconizes my external hard drive as my storage for itunes. All of my music, movies, playlist, etc. are found on my itunes. Help I'm about to punch something!!!

I had some updates for my mac mini and so I updated and when it reboot I checked iTunes and all of my data was gone. I have a 2TB External HDD that contains all of my iTunes data and before the latest Sept. 2012 iTunes update I had the folder located in the advanced tab of itunes located on my external HDD. After the reboot and the new iTunes software was installed it defalted to my HDD on my mini and nothing that was there before the update was no longer there. All of my music, playlists, podcasts, folders, movies etc. was gone. I have redirected the library file locating back to my external HDD but it still is not working. HELP!!!!

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
Windows images, but you get the point. Depending on the age of your library the library file might not include the .itl extention. Make it match the file you are replacing.
See MusicFolder Files Not Added and Super Remove Dead Tracks for tools to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.

You copy it from one computer to the other.
Type "move itunes library" into the google search bar.
You have posted in the iphone forum.

Unable to view all the pdf menu bar in internet browser

We are working on a web application where we have to provide options to users to edit pdf directly(like changing the text) and save to the server again. I installed acrobat professional on my machine to develop the code. But when i open the pdf in my web application(i.e Microsoft Internet Browser..) it is just showing few tool bars, but i need to load all the menu bars so that user can use all the menus which is available for adobe professional. Thanks for your help.

When viewing a PDF in a web browser, one is using a special plugin for the web browser to read PDF files. I have the same problem when I have an Excel file opened in a web browser, there is no Excel menu bar or toolbars. You might be able to add some JavaScirpt to the PDF to display the necessary tool bars.
I always wondered why they call these internet viewers browsers.

Is it possible for me to transfer the purchases from my old itunes account to my new one? I would like to keep all of my music, movies, tv shows etc.

I just created a new Apple ID that is different from my old one. Is it possible for me to transfer the purchases from my old account to my new one? I would like to keep all of my music, movies, tv shows etc.

It doesn't matter what your AppleID is - you can just change the email address associated with it at http://appleid.apple.com/ as mentioned numerous times above.
Okay, my former Apple ID = my former email address and the latter is dead because I moved out of the geographic area.
If you just updated the email address associated with your AppleID you wouldn't have to sign in twice.
I guess Apple Inc is wrong because that is EXACTLY what they stated when I called yesterday afternoon. SIGN IN TWICE when I activate Apple TV and want to watch/listen to my legitimate purchases when my iMac is OFF.
Your only problem is the fact you didn't safely store the password to your account and subsequently forgot it.
Wrong ... my only PROBLEM, SIR, is that my bride, my wife of over 51 years died in my arms at 4:16 AM on December 27, 2012. As a direct result, I decided to get the **** out of the city where my Nancy and I lived for **** near 20 years.
On the outside chance it is of interest to you, she is buried at Arlington National Cemetery, Section 66, based on my faithful military service during 1961 -> 1981 ... including Vietnam during 1967.

Part of this PROBLEM, SIR, is that Apple Inc refuses to merge my old purchases with my new one.
SHAME ON YOU!!!

Is there a way to Quickly organize, consolidate & save the Original (Pictures, Movies, etc.) yet delete all duplicate (Pictures, Movies, etc.)?

Is there a way to Quickly organize, consolidate & save the Original (Pictures, Movies, etc.) yet delete all duplicate (Pictures, Movies, etc.)?

I wanted to first thank you for this, as this is the only workaround literature that seems to be floating around out there. With that said, I know it is a big ask, but is there any way that you could create a video showing step by step how to do what you do? I have several tracks that are stuck in waiting mode, and if left in itunes, will never upload or match...they only cause the upload process to hang up and restart. I've tried leaving it for days...I've tried converting the files, signing in and out of itunes (and itunes match), updating itunes match, and I tried your technique...unfortunately to no avail. Perhaps I didn't do your technique correctly. I used audacity to reverse the audio.
ANY help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!
Thanks
