How can I password protect a pdf file that I intend on emailing?

Hi kimberlyb5119003,
To password protect a PDF file, you need to use Acrobat. For instructions, see Acrobat Help | Security

Hey guys, how can i password protect my files in external hard drive? I want to access those files both from mac and windows PC!

If you want a cross-platform solution that doesn't require the use of third-party software, use an external drive with hardware encryption. The device will have either a physical key or a numeric keypad. I don't have a specific recommendation.

How can I convert a pdf file that's larger than 100MB to word

How can I convert a pdf file that's larger than 100MB to word?
I have just paid $20 to Adobe to get this facility but It won't work ,
as the pdf is larger than 100MB,
I actually believe that I have paid twice for adobe but I'll take this up with them,
in the meantilme,
do you have any suggestions, I really need this material in word urgently,
many thanks
Shanna

If your files are this large, ExportPDF is the wrong tool for you. You need Adobe Acrobat, which runs locally and does not need to send your files to Adobe.

How can i password protect some files and web sites?

How can I possword protect some files and web sites on my mac air so others using my laptop can't access them?

Set a password for your user; create other user accounts for when other people want to use it. You can create a "guest" login which gets wiped after every logout, if that's more appropriate for them.

How to recover password Protected PDF Files

Hi ALL,
DO we have an option to recover password protected pdf files locked with acrobat.I didnt remember password's of some of my old pdf files
Thanks,
Mark

I would just ask the 3rd party that created the PDF if they could supply unencrypted files. If there is some reason they will not, I am surprised that they have not restricted printing. Normally when Acrobat security is set, you can not print to a new PDF, even if printing is allowed. One option is to provide the ID and password to the other folks who need to review the PDFs. On the surface, there seems to be a license issue with what you are trying to do and you may need to be careful that the company is not at risk. That is why I am suggesting to coordinate with the 3rd party.
Sorry. I don't have a solution but just the statement of concern.

How can I password protect specific files?

I have teens using my Mac and sending inappropriate photos, etc., over the internet. I'm trying to save some of the things they've mistakenly left behind on my computer to use as proof of what they're doing. Right now all I get are denials. I don't want them to have access to what I've saved, especially since I have one boy, one girl and I don't want them to see one anothers pictures. Can I set up a file, either in documents or on my desktop that I can password protect?

That would a question for a Mac support forum.

I have a Airport Extreme with a 1TB external HD connected to it. How can I password protect certain files?

I have a Airport Extreme with a 1TB external HD connected to it. I have it set up so my Macbook Pro and PC's in the house can access it. i have some files that i would like to protect(sensitive personal info.). Is there a way that can be done where as certain folders are password protected? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

Would a good workaround be to use disk utility to set up a password protected sparse image, of course being connected directly to the Mac, then connect the drive to the Airport Extreme?
Then, couldn't one use that drive and protected files as normal on the airport? It would just require one extra step of using a Mac to set things up first.
I disconnected my Airport so cannot check it out for myself.

How can I edit a pdf file that was imported?

I want to edit a pdf/jpeg file that I imported/placed in AI? Can that be done?

Steven,
Illy just sees a bunch of pixels as do the rest of us.
You may use Image/Live Trace with suitable settings, expand, and let her work with the resulting vector artwork.
Or you may draw a (set of path(s) round the part(s) you want to keep (turning htem into a compound path in case of multiple paths, then select everything and Object>Clipping Mask>Make. That will only hide the outlying parts (unless you do the destructive deed), and you only have limited ways of (further) editing.
Or you may work in Photoshop or similar.

Acrobat 8.1 and C# - How can you detect password protected PDF files?

I am modifying our existing C# code that opens PDF files. But when ever we hit a password protected file, we are prompted for a password. This is an automated process, so if we detect a password protected file, we move the file to a manual processing folder to be processed later.
We are using Acrobat 8.1 Standard.
Our code looks like this:
using
System;
using
System.Collections.Generic;
using
System.Linq;
using
System.Text;
using
Acrobat;
using
System.IO;
using
Word = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word;
using
System.Reflection;
     AcroApp app = new AcroApp();     app.Hide();
     try
          if (app != null)          {
               app.CloseAllDocs();
               AcroAVDoc av = new AcroAVDoc();
               if (av.Open(filename, "Test") == true)               {
                    AcroPDDoc doc = new AcroPDDoc();                    doc = (
AcroPDDoc)av.GetPDDoc();
                    doc.Save((
short)Acrobat.PDSaveFlags.PDSaveFull,
                    Utilities.GeneratePath(FileVersion.TEMP) + fi.Name.RemoveFileExtension() + ".PDF");                    doc.Close();
     catch (Exception ex)     {
          ErrorLog.LogError(filename.RemoveFileExtension(), ex);     }
     finally
          app.CloseAllDocs();
          app.Exit();
This works great for non-password protected PDF files, but it prompts for a password if the file is password protected. I was looking at the FileOpenEX functionality, but I can not find the reference to bring into my C# project. It looks like it is only for C++, since I could only find C++ examples.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom

There are no methods in the Acrobat SDK for C# for what you wish to accomplish.

How to split a password-protected PDF file?

There is a tutorial to let you know how to split a password-protected pdf file, check in here:http://www.kvisoft.com/tutorials/split-a-password-protected-PDF-file.html

Yup. You all are right. I ordered Adobe Acrobat today and the order is still processing. I can get to Adobe Acrobat.com but that too does not work. I guess I will have to wait until my order is processed before I get the keys to the kingdom. Thanks for your help and please forgive my ignorance.Regards,Bob

How to display in browser a password protected pdf file I created?

I created a password protected pdf file.
I want to display the file in browser so that viewers can only view it online.
It is better that viewers cannot download it.
But I donot know how to prevent viewers downloading the file.
Since the pdf is password protected, viewers don't have the password even they download it.
But how can I display the password protected pdf file in browser when I know the password?
Or is there a better to just viewers see the pdf file online and prevent them from downloading and printing it?

Any file on the web has to be copied to the local machine in order for the file content to be presented to the viewer. That's how the "www" is built. So, to make use of your web based PDF the file has to be downloaded to the local machine. This might be to the local machine's temporary internet / browser cache or (via a 'save this to my computer') to some other location on the local machine's HDD. Bottom line -- web based files get downloaded this is the case for protected file or a non-protected file.
Be well...

Can't open password protected PDF files.

As per the thread title, I can't seem to open password protected PDF files via the Mail app.
I've read that you can open them if they're synced and opened via iBook, however, this is not an option for me.
I get sent several password protected PDF for work per week and would like to be able to read them directly from the Mail app just like a regular PDF file.
Does Apple know of this issue and will they implement a fix in the near future?
