The enTourage sites undergo maintenance periodically, so it could be they cleaned up something, fixing your problem.

The same problem with the blank page is there again. Only with native browser. Dolphin works okay.

PDF file names
PDF files appear with other names in the library then the names I give them. Sometimes the name a pdf has in the library is only a number, whatever I do to change the name to the name I want them to have. A very annoying problem.

I think, it's not a Dingo issue. Like in MP3s there are also tags in PDF files for document title, author etc. Often, these tags are not set accordingly, but the data of these tags will be shown when you add the PDF to the eDGe's library. To set these tags, you need Adobe Acrobat (not the reader) or other similar tools.
I've just tested these free tools:
http://jpdftweak.sourceforge.net/ to set the tags, and
http://jpdfbookmarks.sourceforge.net/, http://flavianopetrocchi.blogspot.com/ to add bookmarks (as table of contents) to PDFs.

Many pdf's I purchased are password protected, so I can't change anything inside it. I just want Edge to show the name I assigned to the pdf. Just like it is shown on my pc, where I can change it to anything I want. Sometimes it's no problem at all and the name I give the file just shows up, sometimes it does not. So there must be something inconsistent in hoe the Edge handles the file names.

I believe szegan is correct, based on my own observations.

To change the name displayed in the Library, tap-and-hold the PDF item and select "Info", then "Edit". You can now edit the "Title" and "Author" that the Library displays.

Is there any way to do this with your PC and Adobe reader before you transfer to the EE? It is taking a long time for me to rename every file I transferred

Not with the Adobe Reader, but szegan listed some free tools in his post above (http://www.entourageedge.com/forums/...ll=1#post10446).

Here is another tool to edit the metadata in PDFs before you upload them to the eDGe's library:
BeCyPDFMetaEdit http://www.becyhome.de/becypdfmetaed...iption_eng.htm
It seems to be more handy for this purpose than the jPDFTweak tool mentioned before.

I suppose, these tools will only work for unprotected PDFs, but I've never tried it. For protected documents, you have to change the information as described by borisb before (on the eDGe library: Info->Edit).
