What's The Point Of The Documents Switch In iCloud Preferences?

According to the help pages on iCloud.com, OS X users must manually upload and download documents as they wish to edit them. This is different from iOS devices as they get the latest version automatically pushed to them.
What's the point of the of the Documents switch in iCloud preferences if nothing happens automatically?

It's a pain uploading and downloading from iworks.com
To me it's a step backwards from using iDisk, Apple needs to sort it out really

IWebBrowser2.Type="Adobe PDF Reader". What is the Document?

Hi,
I'm displaying a PDF within the ActiveX IWebBrowser2 container and looking for a way to access (parse) the text. When displaying Excel files, Type is "Excel" and Document is a Workbook reference. When displaying PDFs, Type="Adobe PDF Reader", but what is the Document? I've come across threads that suggest it might be of type IAcroAXDocShim or CAcroPDDoc, but when trying to use their methods receive "class not registered". Re: "class not registered", is it necessary to install Adobe Acrobat? Why? Reader is installed. Seems to me there ought to be a way to access the text with the tools at hand, no?
Any help is appreciated!

Adobe don't offer such a facility in their controls, not even with Acrobat. If you want to find out more about the very rich programming interface to Acrobat, and the tiny programming interface to the free Adobe Reader, you should download and install the Acrobat SDK - many thousands of pages of documentation and a few examples (for illustration, not cannibalism).

Can I load JPG, PDF documents into the Document section of iCloud

I am concerned about the Document section of Icloud. I used Idisk for storing documents to readily have accessible. It appears that I can only store Iwork, Inumbers, Keynote files that are made from Apple's applications. That doesnt seem really customer friendly - a major step back from Idisk. I don't h

What is the silent switch for ver 9.x adobe_updater.exe?

I simply want to update all of my 750 PC's to current versions of adobe reader and acrobat. I have version 9.x of both. My clients don't have admin rights so I'm hoping that someone at adobe or in practice can pass along the switch to run the updater via the Windows Task Scheduler. I've seen one example, but I can't get it to work silently. Also tried /quiet
"%commonprogramfiles%\adobe\updater6\adobe_updater.exe" -AU_LAUNCH_MODE=1 -AU_DISPLAY_LANG=en_US -AU_LAUNCH_APPID=reader9rdr-en_US
I can run the updater but not silently.
Also hoping that adobe will update their customization wizard to support ver X. thanks Dennis

Exactly what I want to do, I've about given up on adobe, I've posted the same type ? on their web site 2 months ago and no one from adobe replied. I've had our software reseller try forwarding the same ? to someone in adobe, if I get anything back I will pass along. Thanks Dennis
===============================================================================
Subject: So the ? of the month is, can we actually find a real person at adobe that can answer some very basic ?'s
I’ve given up on their overseas support and tried posting a ? on their web site (which no one from adobe would answer), that was in the e-mail that Charlotte passed along to you.
Does adobe have a method to provide unattended SILENT updates to their reader/acrobat. i.e. they have a method in place if you have admin rights called Acrobat-Reader Update. So since 90% of my clients don’t have admin rights, my thinking was if they have a silent switch on that update process I could run a weekly job to apply updates. So far getting anyone to either say yes or no has been futile (normal for adobe).
So to be clear, my goal is to install reader 10.x and acrobat 10.x on all my 750 MIR desktops and I am looking for a way to easily update those PC’s as updates/patches come out from adobe, but I have to do it in a batch job running with admin rights silently. So can we find anyone from Adobe that can either say yes here is the silent switch or say no the only method is as follows!
After 9.2 the following is installed on desktops:
cid:[email protected]
The AdobeARM.exe updater works fine, but you have to be logged onto the PC with admin rights, it then downloads the updates, but then you have to again be logged on with admin rights and double click and apply them via the GUI screens. That would make sense if you had 10 PC’s and each person had admin rights, but that is not at all the corporate world. I have 2 people maintaining 750 PC’s and very few clients have admin rights, so our focus is how to make these updates happen regularly without having to physically access the PC’s.

If you want to set up a iphone plan in store, what are the documents you need ?

when doing a instore setup what are the required things needed. Say this is your first iphone ?

Credit card & picture ID should be all that is needed. If you've never had cell service before, they'll run a credit check.

HT204074 What is the advance email under icloud settings on an ipad 3

I Added the wrong icloud.com email address under the advance option under the icloud section on the ipad, but I used the correct apple I'd on the first page that shows daa plans and such, but at the bottom of the page it has an advanced option, I added my friends email address that I gave the ipad to, he is my roomie. Everything will go to my apple I'd, that's the way I want to keep it, but what is the advanced option for anyway, a backup email address? I logged on to apple and my account and deleted it from my profile but it is still on my ipad a gave to my room mate. I have been looking for information on this option and can not find out anything good that helps explain this feature in the new iOS 6.
CAn some help explain ths please before I mess something up...to be clear, I am using my apple I'd for everything, it's just the advanced option I might have messed up, it has an icloud.com address. Should the icloud.com be my apple I'd with the icloud.com added to it?
i Hope this explains my screwup, got a little thrown off when the setup screen for the new iOS started. I guess what is important is what is the icloud.com for anyway, besides replacing the .me and the .mac.
will it be ok for my room mate to keep it, I have his emails added and my apple I'd everywhere else.
any info would be great guys...thanks

The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
and the iTunes Match services.
(I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
and
iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

WHAT ARE THE SETTINGS FOR AN ICLOUD EMAIL ACCOUNT

I am trying to create an iCloud email account on my iPad with IOS 6.0.1
what are the settings for Host name in incoming and outgoing mail servers?

the information on that link doesnt work. my icloud address is [email protected] not [email protected].. although i tried both on my galaxy note 2. either way the server information is not verifying.

What is the advantage of an iCloud mail account?

I recently updated to iOS 5 on my 64GB iPad 2 +3G. I signed up for iCloud using the same Apple ID I have been using all along.
I was also able to create a new iCloud mail account using @me.com. What is the advantage of having this new email account?
I kind of understand the function of iCloud. It enables me to access the same content via all my iOS devices. If I have a photo in my iPad 2, for example, iCloud could push that same photo to my iPhone if I had one. (It is not much use to me now as I have no other devices besides my iPad 2. I guess I could use the computer at the library and access stuff at iCloud.com.)
The two email accounts I already have are already accessible using other devices.
I can access the same Yahoo account using my iPad 2, an iPhone, or a computer at the local library. So, why do I really need this iCloud account?
I have seen postings from others who have had prior Apple IDs, @me.com accounts, and something called MobileMe. My head spins when reading those posts.
I am new to the Apple world, so luckily I don't have those problems concerning the use of previously established stuff.
I used the same Apple ID I already had to set up my iCloud, but I used a slightly different variation of that email address to set up the iCloud mail account.
Was that a mistake? I am now wondering if I should have kept it all the same. It tells you you cannot change the @me.com address once it is established anyway.
Also, the iPad is considered superior to other tablets because of the wealth of apps available (140,000). Isn't that a little hyped?
There seem to be a lot of duplicative apps that are not too useful. For example, there are tons of calculator, alarm clock, and reminder apps in the app store.
Thanks for any insights you can provide.

"What is the advantage of having this new email account?"
It is simply an extra email if you wish to use it. You don't have to.
"Also, the iPad is considered superior to other tablets because of the wealth of apps available (140,000). Isn't that a little hyped?"
No. It is actually +600,000 apps.
The 140,000 is iPad specific apps. You can also run iPhone apps and universal apps just fine.
Sure there are lots of duplicates and a bunch of apps are lame but there are definitely plenty of very good quality apps.

HT201342 What are the benefits to using @icloud account over @me. account?

Do I need to change over to @icloud account for email and what are the benefits over @me account?

It's not a separate account. It's simply an additional address on your existing account and you can use it or not use it at your own convenience. Your @me.com address will be unaffected.

What is " The Request for account "iCloud" failed. The server responded with "400" to operation CalDAVUpdateShareesQueuableOperation

My wife and I have synced calendars that have stopped working. She gets my updates but I dont get hers, when we try to sync on her laptop we get this message.

Hello Kirkdasilva,
It sounds like one of your computers is not syncing correctly to a shared iCloud calendar. I recommend the troublehsooting from the article named:
iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3999
Try each of these steps, testing after each to see if the issue is resolved:
Make sure that you are using OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later. Learn how to verify the version of OS X you are using.
Make sure your computer is online. Attempt to view www.apple.com. If you can't connect to the Internet, your iCloud calendars and events will not update in Calendar or iCal. Learn how to troubleshoot your Internet connection.
Open a secure website to test if ports 80 and 443 are accessible. Calendar requires port 443 access to iCloud in order to push and fetch updates to and from the iCloud Calendar servers.
Choose Apple () menu > System Preferences, then click the icon for iCloud. Make sure that you're signed in to the same iCloud account that you're using on your other supported devices.
Make sure that you enter and update calendar information in the iCloud section of Calendar or iCal. Only calendars and events in the iCloud section of the Calendar or iCal Calendar list are updated in iCloud. Both Calendar and iCal for Mac support the display of and interaction with multiple accounts and datastores, such as iCloud, On My Mac, Exchange, and Google. This makes it easy to create or modify events or calendars in a section of Calendar or iCal that may not be updating iCloud. Learn more about moving local calendars to iCloud.
In some cases, you may find that you have data duplicated in both the local On My Mac and the iCloud sections of Calendar or iCal. Learn more about resolving this issue.
You can make the iCloud calendar your default calendar for all new events. In Calendar, choose Calendar > Preferences, then click General. In iCal, choose iCal > Preferences, then click General. Locate the Default Calendar setting and choose one of the Calendars under the iCloud heading. Close the Preferences window to save the change.
Turn iCloud Calendars off and back on:
Quit Calendar (or iCal).
Choose Apple () menu > System Preferences, then select iCloud.
Deselect the checkbox next to Calendars (or Calendars & Reminders in Mountain Lion and Lion).
Close System Preferences and wait about a minute.
Open System Preferences and select iCloud.
Replace the checkmark next to Calendars (or Calendars & Reminders in Mountain Lion and Lion).
Close System Preferences.
Open Calendar (or iCal) and test to see if the issue is resolved.
Restart your computer. This may sound simple, but it reinitializes your network and application settings and can frequently resolve issues.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling
