Viewing multiple files in just one Reader window

Hello,
It seems that Reader v8 has lost the ability of opening
multiple files within one instance of Reader, with several
options for stacking, or cascading them, all within what
I might call a "reader workspace".
Now each file takes its own window, which I find *very*
annoying and unnecesarily clutters the desktop.
I have looked and looked and tried, online and in the Reader,
but I have yet to come up with the "solution".
I find it hard to believe that this kind of ubviously
desirable option could be gone... at the time when even IE7
has tabs now to help keep things organized!
Well, having tabs within Reader would indeed be a worthy
extension of the (now lost) "contained workspace" view.
Any clue?
Thanks a lot,
-GF

    Select them and press the Option, Command, and I keys at once. The resulting window will change its content based on the selection.

  • Ability to view multiple files in ONE window

    I can see here that this is not a new topic really but the thing with Acrobat 9 is so frustrating that it is just unbelievable.
    This is another pearl:
    Acrobat 9 "lost" its predecessors ability to view multiple files in ONE window. After opening four only documents I cannot see anything on the screen because the toolbars on each individual window cover all necessary view and nothing is left for the actual document. And sometimes I need to open 20 documents!
    This is ABSOLUTE DISASTER!!!
    I found some explanations from Adobe on the Web that are more than a year old.
    I was sure that by now this unfortunate mishandling of that feature (apparently it was dropped out from A9 deliberately - WHO'S IDEA WAS THAT?) would be somehow restorable.
    Would anyone happen to know if this feature can get restored to how it was working in A7 or 8 (without the need to uninstall A9 and install A8)?

    No, it can't be restored, unless Adobe decides to change the way Acrobat works (which is possible, but not likely).
    By the way, it was Microsoft's idea... Adobe were just following their example on this.

  • Can I use my Time Capsule to set up multiple networks, or just one?

    Can I use my Time Capsule to set up multiple networks, or just one?  We'd like to offer the internet to clients who are at our studio, but don't want them able to access all our computers, so a second network for them would be useful.

    Two big IFs here.
    Not all versions of the Time Capsule have Guest Networking capability, so it might be a good idea to verify that first. Can you provide the model number of your Time Capsule.  it's on the bottom of the device.....starts with an "A" followed by four numbers.
    Next, assuming that the Time Capsule has Guest Network capability, the next requirement would be to verify that your modem is compatible with the Time Capsule for that feature. 
    Basically, you need a simple modem.....not a modem/router or gateway device that is often furnished by Internet Service Providers.  If you are not sure what you have, post back with the make and model number of your "modem" and we'll see if we can find some details ont he device.

  • How do I change the start/stop time for multiple songs not just one song at a time?

    I don't think you can in iTunes.
    Multiple editing in Get Info does not offer an option to change start/stop times.

  • Show or view multiple album art for one song on iPhone 4?

    Is it possible to show or view multiple album artwork for one song on an iPhone 4, especially on the now playing screen? I figured since iTunes has this feature then the iPhone should too. Can I download an app that does this? I've searched but couldn't find any, maybe I'm using other keywords. Could anyone point me in the right direction with this?

    Darn. I hope an app is designed to be able to do this soon. From what I've seen this feature isn't really in demand so it could take a while. Thanks for replying.

    I am looking to turn my iPad into a portable device to store and view multiple files transferred from my pc. I have tried some apps but it does not support multiple sub folder transfers.  Any suggestions please?

    I use GoodReader on my iPad and use the GoodReaderUSB tool. the GoodReaderUSB tool allows you to transfer entire folders into GoodReader without loosing the folder/file structure.

  • Multiple file copies just randomly miss a few of the files

    This is something that has happened to me on all networks I've used. My home network (gigabit LAN or 802.11n), work network, and any client network I've ever been on while supporting.
    I can select say 10 files on my MBP in finder. And either copy/paste or just drag to copy onto an SMB share (windows 2003 at home for my windows home server, also 2008 and 2008 R2 servers at work and clients). And the file copy goes fine. I see the progress window, it goes and I see the files populating the network share as it progresses. It runs the normal amount of time I'd expect for the speed of the network, and when it's done I get my sound. Then anywhere from three to nine of the files just disappear off the network share as the copy finishes. So it takes the time to copy them but does not complete.
    And it's not an every time thing. And it ONLY happens with multiple files, i NEVER have a problem doing files singularly. The same files that fail in a batch go fine when I copy them one by one in the same session after it failed doing them all at once.
    No errors on the windows side of things in the logs, disks are fine. Never happens with my MBP when I do it from windows either via VMware or booting directly into boot camp.
    No errors on the mac side, for all intents and purposes it completed successfully. Yet almost every time I do group copies, only a couple actually are on that network share when all is said and done.
    No AV or firewall on the server at the moment so it happens whether I have them enabled or uninstalled. No AV on the MBP.
    And no disconnects, etc. I'm watching things in an RDP session while the copy is happening and I never lose the network, it never drops. Downloads that I sometimes have going on are working just fine, everything is just perfect in every respect as far as networking goes, except for those copying of multiple files.
    Saw someone else had disabled write caching on the windows machine to overcome an actual error they had, and i had tried that in this instance long ago to no avail.
    This has happened since I first bought the laptop in July of '09 and it was running leopard, and has continued through every single version update since. Wired or wireless...
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    hey JDThree, i'm having the SAME EXACT PROBLEM!!! i've tried restarting both my server and my MBP, and it does the job a bit, but it's so random. even doing a single file copy doesn't seem to work. i tried copying over one file, then when it finished and was on the server, i copied the next file, and it removed the first file. so strange. anybody have any ideas?

  • How to Combine multiple files into the one file?

    Hi all,
    How do I combine multiple canon hf10 avchd files into the one file with a new extension. No need to be compressed.
    Afterwards, I also want to split this combined file to original files.
    Need Help!

    Yes, angelanna. You can merge or split your video file via FCP sequence.
    ahaah, maybe I think angelanna would like to get the resulting file with MTS format because he mentioned “No need to be compressed”. Are you asking for this, angelanna?
    If so, a simple MTS files managing and editing tool  is needed. Maybe you can have a try the Mac version of Aunsoft Final Mate for managing HD camcorder footages. I just downloaded its free trial version and it offers a simple way of garping footages directly  from camcorder. And also it provides a attractive feature to join flawlessly and split accurately native MTS files for video file output with original MTS format.
    Maybe this is the tool cwhich an help you out, angelanna.
    Enjoy your video.

  • Multiple iTunes Match accounts (one per Windows profile)?

    Hi,
    Forgive me if this subject had been covered before (I did have a quick dig), but is it possible to have seperate iTunes Match accounts, one per Windows profile (on the same box)?
    Our Windows 7 system has multiple users and we don't want to merge music into one library just to get Match working.  Is it the case that it's limited by MAC address / physical hardware?  (I don't want to go down the route of having one network interface per windows profile either!)
    If somebody from Apple reads this, are there any plans to support this future iTunes releases?  It would bring you more revenue with a household willing to pay for more than one subscription...
    Many thanks,
    Matt.

    You can authorize a single copy of iTunes to up to five iTunes Store accounts. So yes, you can have both your account and one for your daughter in the same system.

  • BPEL Process with multiple file types using one FTP adapter is not working

    i created a bpel process which will fetch the files from remote location using FTP adapter.
    Now the process works for only one format or file type like *.xls.
    How can i use more than one file format in one FTP adapter.
    OR
    is there any other way to do it.
    file type assignation is 5th step in FTP adapter configuration.
    i have tried *.xls,*.csv and *.xls;*.csv and *.xls:*.csv by seperating with comman, colon, space... still not working.
    i read the documentation *.* will not work.. for one file format it's working fine.
    looking forward for reply as soon as possible.

    Are you positive that it is not working? I'm not sure how you can use one FTP adapter for multiple file types unless the underlying data is exactly the same format or you are processing it as opaque data. Sometimes when a FTP adapter chokes on a file with a bad structure it doesn't create a BPEL instance, it simply moves the bad file to a separate folder.
    So I assume you are using opaque as the data type instead of using an XSD element?
    That said, I don't think you can put two separate file types in the filter. Is it possible for you to do something like: CommonFileName*.* or do you have similar files with other extensions?
    I know the above probably isn't of much help, but I had so many problems with the FTP adapter and its lack of features that I am writing my own. Unfortunately that is a large undertaking and there isn't any good documentation of JCA resource adapter / BPEL PM integration.

  • Anyone know how to measure multiple file selections in a finder window?

    Hello,
    I have a flash drive that holds 8gbs. I have an enormous folder of images I am going to start passing to my buddy on the flash drive. Anybody know how I can select multiple files and know how big the selection will be prior to dragging them to the 8gb drive?
    Thank!
    Kirk

    Shift-click or command-click to select them, and then press the Option, Command, and I keys; the information in the window will change as the selection changes.

  • Is it possible to view "Attach File" annotations in Adobe Reader for iPhone 5s?

    Most of my annotations transfer well from Adobe Reader XI to Reader for iOS but "Attach File" annotations don't seem to carry over. I would like to be able to attach image and video files and have them function on an iOS device.
    Versions:
    iOS: 7.0.4
    Adobe Reader iOS: 11.2.1
    Adobe Reader Windows: XI 11.0.0
    It would also be nice to have the same comment tracking functionality that exists in the desktop version. Knowing when and by whom each comment was made would be helpful in the field.

    Thanks for your feedback. Adobe Reader for iOS does not support attaching of images and videos at the moment.
    We have taken note of both your requests.
