I've been trying to find a way to create a password protected file that I can use on my iphone and ipad for sensitive information. I've tried the password protection on Pages for mac, but once the file is opened in Pages on IOS, there's no way to close it.So, now I think I have a solution by creating a pdf file and adding a password to it, using Preview on mac.
1. create a file using textedit, and Export to pdf.
2. open that pdf in Preview and Export to pdf, with a password.
3. add this encrypted file to the iTunes library.
4. sync the iphone / ipad
5. use iBooks on the IOS to open the file. It will ask for the password. To close, the file, quit the iBooks App.
It looks like this meets my needs. BTW, if you're using windows instead of the mac, you can install libreoffice and use it to create the password protected pdf, then just add it to iTunes and sync the iphone. So, my question is for those who know the inner workings of the mac and IOS, and is whether this is actually secure or is this file crackable?

how to retrieve password protected MS office excel file using Blackberry curve 9300 model. It is not opening. If no password, the excel file is opening.
I find it silly that the an option to find a lost or stolen phone isn't password protected and can be disabled with a few clicks.If I were a criminal, stealing an iphone, the first thing I'd do is disable that option.
I am using a C7 with the built in Acrobat reader LE 2.5. The application is unable to open any password protected PDFs. The acrobat reader LE 2.5 on E63 works fine.
Is there a limitation on the C7 application? Is there a workaround or any other app which will help me read pwd protected PDF?

My wife phone got stolen. She has an official unlock Blackberry Bold 9900 phone. I contacted our provider AT&T about blocking the device, they said that the can't do it because it is not an AT&T phone. AT&T only suspend the service. They were even unable to direct us to whom should we speak with. I would like to totally block the phone from being used with any sim. How can I do that? The device have important information and my wife has a password on the device. Can they hack it without formatting the device.
Like always, on previous Symbian phones I have locked my memory cards with passwords and if you were to insert that locked card into another Symbian phone, it would immediately ask you to enter the password. I did so with my old phone (Nokia C7) and now after inserting that locked card in the 808, nothing comes up.. it doesn't ask for a password input. I am now stuck with a 16 gigs locked micro SD card to which I know the password but I can't unlock it! I know for sure that password protected cards will not show up on computers and it doesn't show up on my gf's Android either. I have been to a Nokia care shop and they have tried with other Nokia phones but nothing worked. They suggested using the phone it was locked with but that's not a possibility because it was broken into pieces and sent to Finland
What else can I try to be able to unlock/input my password into this SD card?
Testing the new BB 9300 I placed my sim card into the phone. To my surprise my call history appeared on my new phone...to my even bigger surprise when I got home it connected to my home WIFI automatically even though it is Password protected. How this sort of information is getting transferred, I don't think it is my sim and I am slightly concerned it is getting stored on the BES server.
Just curious... I have my lock screen enabled (with numbers, not pattern). If my phone were to get lost or stolen, how hard is it for someone to bypass the lock screen? I was looking around on google and it looked like there were some issues in the past with the ease of bypassing it, but couldn't find if it has since been resolved with Froyo and beyond (left the phone at home, so can't test).If the built in password functionality is bogus, can you recommend any apps that you all like and are impossible to crack (or at least thug proof if I were to get robbed on the subway)? I'm really not interest in apps that locak individual applications, just the overall phone.
I want to be able to leave my Wildfire S lying around the house without worrying about someone picking it up and reading my texts. I have set it up so I have to enter a password before doing anything. This is great except for one thing. When I get a text, the first few words are shown even before inputting the password. How can I stop this? I've tried all the settings in 'text settings' .
On my girlfriends iphone it is not possible to create a backup without a password. I cannot remark the tick. All backups I create have a password. The problem is, that we forgot the password, which was set once.
I don´t want to get back old backups! I want to create a new one on my computer (not in the cloud), but without a password. Is there a possibility?Â
Seems like it should be a simple task, but is a hoop jumping nightmare on the 1020. I simply want to email a photo to my printer (Epson Artisan 730), which only prints pdf attachments (jpgs do not print with epson email connect). I've downloaded several apps that promise to be able to create a pdf from a jpg image file and then mail it, but none seem to deliver on that promise.
EDIT: Now have jpeg printing working via email. Problem was paper source and size. Unfortunately can only use 4x6 default size for photos. Still need pdf printing from the main paper cassette to get larger prints.
I'm trying to import passwords from an XML file. I exported the files and sent them to my Turbo and saved the attachments. Problem is that the app is looking for the file in a certain file.
I'm trying to figure out how to create the file name that the app is looking for.
I can't log with the Blackberry ID, I forgot the password. And I tried to create a new account with a different email and is not working. It is possible to recover a password or create a new account?
And only on boot / startup? I want to create a password when I turn on the Droid, but once its on - just requre the normal screen swipe to use the device (I don't want to have to enter a password each and every time I try to use my phone!)
why there is no way to create a shortcut to a folder or a file inside a folder in your memory card, it seems to me a very important function and yet no one complains but me.I have an office file which I use daily which is saved in E:My filesaccountshomeofficeworddaily.docIt would be great to add a shortcut to that file on the desktop. or at least to that folder.Or lets say I'm listening to an audiobook which is in: E:My filesAudioAudiobookspersonalBorn to runCD5chapter 4.mp3Every time I want to listen to this I have to dig deep in the file manager.
Would it be possible to have passcode protected folders in IOS. In other words a second layer of security to open up certain apps that you want to either keep private or restrict anyone else that has your phone or tablet from accessing. For example, I might want to have some financial apps or shopping apps on my phone or tablet and then I let my son use my phone (or tablet) to play some games. As they are kids they explore and end up accessing and maybe even buying something by accident!
