Adobe Reader for iOS cannot open IRM-protected PDF documents.

Hi,
trying to open IRM-protected documents on an iPhone or iPad.
(Reader-version is 10.1.0 (49458) - on iOS5 final).
When X509-authentication and anonymous authentication is switched on,
there is an error-message, that the connection to the IRM-server failed.
When only "Username/Password" authentication is switched on,
there comes an different error like "Error opening the document".
In this case, LiveCycle-WWW Server only shows two successful calls to server/info/ , but the next POST to /rmws/rest/secure/license/consume is missing
2011-10-20 12:27:33 192.168.0.42 GET /rmws/rest/secure/server/info - 443 - 192.168.10.10 HTTP/1.1 Adobe%20Reader/10.1.0+CFNetwork/548.0.3+Darwin/11.0.0 - lcrm.devrms64.local:443 200 0 0 389 1647 15

which authentication-methods are supported for IRM-docs on iOS?
what could be the problem?
Thanks,

I have tried testing this and have had mixed results... I was able to successfully open an RM'd PDF from one server, but receive a connection error when trying to access a document protected by a second RM server that I have access to. The error reads...
"Access to this document is restricted by this remote server: xxxx.xxxx.com, however we are unable to connect to it at this time. Please try to open it later. If you continue to see this message, check whether your device is supported by the server."
Is this the same error that you are seeing?
What version of Rights Management (LiveCycle) are you using? Can you access the server that LiveCycle is running on over HTTPS from a browser? This will help determione if the SSL certificate is trusted on the device.
I am testing using Reader for Android version is 10.1.0 (49458)

Cannot open password protected .pdf files?

I have an ebook for school that requires a username/password combo to open. It of course opens on my computer, but when I try to open it on my Galaxy III, it says there was an error opening the document. It also will not open with my Galaxy Tab 7.0. I have the most updated versions on both devices.
Can I not open this type of file with Adobe Reader?
Please help!! I need to be able to open this ebook on the go!
Thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Michael for your speedy reply. I have been reading on the Adobe site and I figured that much. I buy knitting patterns and crochet patterns at a cost and I download and print them. I 'save them to My Documents', some of the older ones I can bring up and print again but it has been just recently that the new ones will not allow me to view them. I know you can get password breaker software. Do you think it is a good practise to have such software in your computer? Thanks again. JenonDenman.

Will the new iPad open password protected PDF files?

I attend college online, and have always had a problem viewing password protected PDF files on my iPad. Will the new iPad allow opening these files?
Thank you!

You can install the same iOS version running the new iPad onto your iPad.
Download the free Adobe Reader app from the App Store. It opens password protected PDFs just like thee desktop version.

Password protected PDF document not opened with E7...

Dear all,
Password protected PDF document not opened with nokia E7-00. Previously I used nokia N79, that time I was able to open Password protected PDF file such as bank email statement etc. Now I can't.
It is quite disappointing with this phone !

hi mateys,
you may want to search under "PDF" in the Nokia Store, as some solutions such as Picsel Smart Office exist, where they do open password-protected PDF's.

Unable to open password protected PDF in safari

Dear all, I'm new in using iPhone safari. I have problem in opening password protected PDF file from safari. Do you have any solution or workaround to resolve this problem
Regards
BR

You can put pretty much any character into the encryption password for a PDF file apart from control codes (carriage returns, backspaces, etc), but whether the vendor's website can is another matter!
As you seem to have a PDF with a user password that isn't what you expected, there's nothing you can do to remove it other than perhaps trying a version without the quote characters, or with a backslash in front of the quote (it's possible they escaped the string on the login form in preparation for storing it in a database, and forgot to unescape it again).

Adobe reader 11 cannot open in protected mode due to incompatibilty with your system configuration

I have deployed Adobe reader 11 is our IT Enviorment using SCCM 2012 and the following warning Adobe reader cannot open in protected mode due to incompatibilty with your system configuration. Would you like to open Adobe reader with Protected Mode disabled is being displayed. When tried opening PDF files. Is there any way to isolate the cause without needing to disable the protected mode without needing to disable protected mode from Adobe reader settings.

To the best of my knowledge: no.

I cannot open a downloaded PDF document, why? I

I cannot open a downloaded PDF document, WHY?

My MacBook Pro (2.5 Ghz Intel Core i5) is running OS X 10.9.4. Here is what happens when reading an online user manual that I want to save to the Desktop and read later as a PDF file on my iPad or phone. With Safari I will select "Export As PDF" and the file shows up on the desktop. Even after multiple trials, there will be a dialogue box indicating the file cannot be opened. If I check the file info, the size is "zero." Trying to save the file as a pdf using the Print menu yields the same results. I have tried both of these methods using Preview, Adobe Reader, and PDF Pen Pro. This strange behavior also occurred several weeks ago and I finally abandoned the effort. But when the same thing happens twice, it becomes an issue that needs to be resolved.

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?

Open password protected PDF in website

Hi,
I hope someone can help me. Greatly appreciate it.
My website has PDF documents that's available for registered users to view online (through my site) only.
Currently, I can't find any solutions to prevent users from downloading/"save-as" the PDF doc in their local drives, so I'm thinking of password-protecting these PDFs. This will ensure that they'd not be able to view the PDFs even though they download it and save-as local.
However, how do I open these password-protected PDFs on my site?
When I point/redirect to these PDFs, it will prompt for password.
It'd defeat all protection intent if I were to give the password to the user to enter, right?
Example:
1. Response.Redirect("mySecuredPdf.pdf")
2. The browser will then prompt user for password.
What can I do in the CodeBehind to enable the server to OPEN the pdf, and at the same time, pass the correct password to the viewer to open without prompting?
I cannot remove password, because I want to prevent users from downloading and then opening it later, or redistributing the file.
btw, i'm using ASP.NET.
Please help.

There's a similar thread in the Acrobat Windows section, and the answer is the same - only a DRM system with a client UI (such as Adobe Digital Editions) can restrict the *use* of a file. You cannot prevent the client downloading and saving it, as otherwise they can't see it on their screen. The page you're reading now is not on a computer at Adobe - it's on yours.
> What can I do in the CodeBehind to enable the server to OPEN the pdf, and at the same time, pass the correct password to the viewer to open without prompting?
I think you're getting the flow a little backwards - the PDF is 'opened' by the client, using their copy of Adobe Reader (or whatever). The webserver has nothing to do with the process other than blindly sending the file's 1s and 0s down a wire, so can't do anything to directly control the client's desktop applications.

Opening Password protected PDF's

I am using the AcrobatPDFOCX control in a Visual Basic 2005 program to open and view PDF documents. I have several password protected PDF files that I wish to open using this control. Here is the command that I use to open a PDF File
AxAcroPDF1.LoadFile(Application.StartupPath + "\" + FileName + ".PDF")
When this command executes for a Password Protected PDF I am prompted to provide the password. Is there a way to pass the password programmatically from VB to the password protected PDF file thus allowing it to open.

Thanks for your prompt reply. I tried SendKeys.wait("Password") and SendKeys.sendwait("Password"). Neither one appeared to work. Prompt for password showed but the string "Password" was not read or sent or went to bit heaven. I tried using WinExist("Password") but VB is saying this function has not been declared. Can you help with the declaration I need to activate this function?
