Link to A folder View in a PDF Portfolio - feature no longer working - please advise

Hi, I am no longer able to link to a Folder View of a PDF Portfolio:
Within a PDF portfolio i need to link from a PDF to a folder view in the Portfolio. I am using Link Action - Go to Page View.
This used to work for me - very important feature that no longer works. Please advise a workaround.
Steps:
1. Start a PDF Portfolio that contains files and folders
2. Open a PDF in the Portfolio
3. in the opened PDF click Add or Edit Link
4. Define a link area and set it to Go To A Page Vies
5. In the past i have been able to target a Folder View in the Portfolio - ie. direct a user not to a file, but instead to a folder view that contains relevant files. I would do this by setting the Target Page View to my desired folder view
6. This used to work in bringing a user to the folder view i specify. Now it does nothing. If i go back to the PDF and EDIT the Link i see this. File: Parent Document Page 1. This in fact does nothing.
Please advise, am i doing this wrong, it used to work. I have tried several workarounds, with no luck.
thanks!

There's an extension or two, or a combination of extensions which seem to be causing that in Firefox 6.0.2. One that has been mentioned is TabMix Plus.

You need to figure out what is causing it, and disable that extension/s until they are fixed by their developer.

  • How to set default folder view in Outlook PDF Portfolio?

    I'm using Acrobat 9.0 within MS Outlook 2007 to create a portfolio of a folder with subfolders. I would like the initial portfolio view to mimic a typical Outlook view with folder list and reading preview pane. I can create said view in the PDF file by splitting the window vertically and clicking my way to the desired folder level. But I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to save those choices as a default under Portfolio Properties or elsewhere.  Can anyone offer advice?  Thanks.

    Can no one help me?  No one at all?

  • ITunes 12 - "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organised" feature no longer works

    Hi everyone, I was wondering if you could help me with an issue I've been having.
    Since updating to iTunes 12, the 'Keep iTunes Media Folder Organised' feature no longer works. When I add media to the library, iTunes doesn't copy it to a destination within my media library. It only works if I turn the feature off, and then back on again.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I don't use the feature myself, but it works properly in a test library for me.
    It could possibly be a permissions issue. Different processes in iTunes seem to make use of either the system or the user account for file actions and it is just possible that which has been used in that case has changed. See Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows for details.

  • How do you open link to a file contained in a PDF portfolio in a new window?

    I am making a large PDF portfolio with one main document that links to other documents contained inside the portfolio. The problem is when I select a link, it will take me to the document I would like it to but I cannot move back to the main document as easily as I would like to. Is there a fast "back" option, or can I set the link to open in a new window? I know I can move to the list view, hit the back button, re-open the main document, and find the same page again but that is not a very quick method.
    I know how to set the link to open in a new window if I am opening a new file, but that option is not available if I would like to jump to a specific page contained within the document. I tried to "open a file" and select the portfolio but it won't allow me to set the page so that didn't work either. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thank you!

    Hi fmalek17,
    Firstly, there is no such 'back' option in a portfolio. You might need to set a link in a similar way in the other document also for going back to the main document in a portfolio.
    Secondly, you need to select 'Go to a page view' option in the Create Link window to jump to a specific page. Unfortunately, there is no such option available in Acrobat via which you can go to some specific page of the same document which gets opened in another window.

  • How do you set the default view of a PDF portfolio to be the Files mode?

    I can set my personal view of portfolios to that, but if another user opens it, it shows the preview mode. It needs to be accessible, and I read Files mode is the only way. We want to load a PDF portfolio onto our internet for anyone to view, but it needs to open in the Files mode. Thanks

    I have done this.
    Have a hidden input field on form  <input name="ZoneExpiry" id="ExpiryDate" />
    Then have a function as follows:
    var dat=new Date();
                                                      dat.setDate(dat.getDate() + 365);
                                                      var monthname=new Array("Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May","Jun", "Jul","Aug","Sep","Oct","Nov","Dec")
                                                      var pretty = dat.getDate() + "-" + monthname[dat.getMonth()] + "-" + dat.getFullYear();   
                                                      jQuery("#ExpiryDate").val(pretty);
    Hope this helps.

  • Create Folder with DDX in PDF Portfolio or add files to Folder

    can I create folders in a PDF file same as we do with the Adobe Acrobat Portfolio using only DDX? I tried using PackageFiles, but had no results.

    The Assembler service in LiveCycle ES (8.2) does not provide a way to specify folders within a PDF portfolio.
    For more information about PDF portfolio capabilities in LiveCycle 8.2, see Using Assembler to Create PDF Portfolios.

  • Initial View issues with PDF portfolio

    I am creating a pdf portfolio in Acrobat 10.1.1.  The layout is Freeform, when I save it and email it to clients, it never opens to the same size, depending on their screen size or window size, it either stretches or squeezes the file folders and the become out of place (and cover up other things).  Is there a way to set the properties of the pdf portfolio so that it always opens up to a certain size?  there for no matter what size the monitor is my clients use, it will open to how its designed?  I know you can set up pdfs to open up at 100%, 500%, fit to window, actual size, etc.. but I want to take those properties and apply it to the pdf portfolio..
    Thanks

    Hi "the Conditioner",
    For a FreeForm portfolio you can set the default size of the icons ("cards").
    You may want to play around with the options to see what works best for you.
    To change the size of the cards, do the following:
    1. Open the portfolio.
    2. Ensure you are in "Layout" mode. You can click the "Layout" button to do so.
    3. Click the Edit button.
    4. On the upper right menu, click Layout to bring up the Layout panel.
    5. At the very bottom of the Layout panel is the "Portfolio Properties".
    6. Change the "Card Size".
    Your choices are Small, Medium, Large and Auto-Size.
    7. Save the portfolio. Close the portfolio (don't close Acrobat).
    Resize the Acrobat window. Open the portfolio (File > Open or from the recent files list) and see how it looks in different size windows.
    Hope this helps,
    Charlene

  • Initial View in a PDF Portfolio

    I have just started using the new portfolio feature, I have four forms that I've combined. I am using the Grid with Preview option to layout the files. When I open the portfolio it always opens to the same page in the second form, how do I change it to open to the first page of the first form?

    Michael,
    Can you explain precisely?
    Cover Sheet? In Acrobat Pro 9? Where?
    A search in the Help file returns nothing when searching for "Cover Sheet" or even "Welcome Page."
    In Acrobat Pro 8, there was an explicit command to set the currently viewed document as the start document.
    The Help files describe setting an Initial View for a Portfolio; but when you select Portfolio Properties... from the File menu, you get a Document Properties dialog, not a Portfolio Properties dialog. You only get an Initial VIew pane for a document.

  • View Word and PowerPoint in browser no longer working

    Hi There,
    I have SharePoint 2010 environment. I configured Word Viewing Service and PowerPoint service accordingly and all working perfectly. But recently it didn't work any more. I deleted services and recreate services, even stop and restart the service from Central
    Administration interface didn't make it working. I got same error message as below:
    I found some suggestions from Google, and I did check the setting, but I didn't fix the problem.
    Regards,
    Tony

    You must increase the permission on both service applications and then execute an IIS reset. Follow the steps explained in below article and you should get the error resolved.
    Fixing Office Web Apps "Network Connectivity has been lost error"
    As given in article...
    1. Run this script in PowerShell:
    Remove-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell -erroraction SilentlyContinue
    Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell -erroraction SilentlyContinue
    Write-Host -ForegroundColor White "--------------------------------------------------------------"
    Write-Host -Foregroundcolor green "Fixing Word Viewing Service Application"
    $e = Get-SPServiceApplication | where {$_.TypeName.Equals("Word Viewing Service Application")}
    $e.WordServerIsSandboxed = $false
    Write-Host -Foregroundcolor green "Word Viewing Service Application is fixed"
    Write-Host -ForegroundColor White "--------------------------------------------------------------"
    Write-Host -Foregroundcolor green "Fixing PowerPoint Service Application"
    Get-SPPowerPointServiceApplication | Set-SPPowerPointServiceApplication -EnableSandboxedViewing $false
    Get-SPPowerPointServiceApplication | Set-SPPowerPointServiceApplication -EnableSandboxedEditing $false
    Write-Host -Foregroundcolor green "PowerPoint Service Application is fixed"
    Write-Host -ForegroundColor White "--------------------------------------------------------------"
    2. Do an IIS reset on SharePoint Application Server.
    Note: Office Web Apps must be installed on a farm which uses a domain controller. For standalone installations this fix will not
    work. Before running this script please check the name of “Word Viewing Service Application“
    and PowerPoint Service Application because it may differ in your system. You can check it either from central administration site or by running “Get-SPServiceApplication”
    command.

  • Please Help - PDF File icon No longer working???

    Ok this may sound a bit wierd, but bare with me.  Ok so I just got a new laptop because my old one was going a little wonky..... long story short, it's gone.  So I was transfering some pdf files that I had backed up to an external drive onto my new system.  Both systems are running on Windows 7 Ultimate.  So in a folder I have a number of PDF's stored.  When I open the folder I see all the files, but they all look the same, they all have the default Adobe reader icon.  This is fine, but I would much rather have my old view back.  I used to open the folder and see all of the Covers of the books that are in the pdf's.  How can I get the covers to show as the file icon again as oposed to the Adobe file icon?  There has to be something that I'm missing.  Sorry to have rambled on. I look forward to hearing your sugestions.

    Thanx for the suggestion.  I did the steps that i found on google to create the enable/disable thumbnail option and changing it to enable, i can tell it has changed to enable because other file types show the thumbnails but the pdf files are still not showing.

  • Office 2013, after windows/office updates recently, pdf add-in no longer works

    We have a user who has Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit, Office 2013 (32-bit) and Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.  They used to be able to "save as pdf" from word, but can no longer do it and gets the error "word is running into problems with the 'acrobat pdfmaker office com addin'add-in.  If this keeps happening, disable this add-in and check for available updates.  Do you want to disable it now?"
    They disable the add-in and are still able to 'save as' and then choose PDF in the pull down menu in word/powerpoint, but has anyone else had this issue?  I'm not sure if this is a question for the adobe folks or the microsoft folks, but it is annoying.  We've already run the Office repair and the Adobe repair but this had no affect.

    Hey rachell71266154,
    Could you please let me know what exact dot version of Acrobat XI are you using.
    You might choose 'Check for Updates' option under the Help menu to use the latest patch of Acrobat.
    Please refer the KB doc link mentioned below and try out solutions to enable PDFMaker add-in in Word:
    PDFMaker unavailable | Office 2007, 2010, 2013 | Acrobat 9, Acrobat X, Acrobat XI, Acrobat DC
    Let me know if this helps.

  • PDF & JPEG attachments no longer work in Tiger

    I just upgraded to Tiger yesterday and now my trusty Mail application is totally useless. I send proofing PDFs and JPEGs to my clients all day long and now anything I attach is a crapshoot. Everytime I attach a JPEG, I get a garishly coloured preview in the email body which sometimes I can fix by fiddling with that new image size window in the lower right of the window frame, but my clients still get an email with the image embedded in it that they usually can only save as a bmp. Mail was working perfectly under Panther. Why the blazes did they mess it up? The most annoying thing is that there used to be a preference setting that would allow you to turn off seeing images in your emails. This is seriously affecting my business and I won't upgrade any of my other Macs until this is resolved. Has anyone else found a workaround for this?

    The most annoying thing is that there used to be a preference setting
    that would allow you to turn off seeing images in your emails.
    I've been using the Mail.app exclusively since Jaguar was introduced, thru Panther and now Tiger and there has never been such a preference setting with any Mail.app version for displaying inline or viewed in place attachments. There is a preference setting to display remote images in HTML messages which is not the same thing.
    The Mail.app displays image/photo attachments and 1 page PDF attachments inline or viewed in place within the body of the message by default which cannot be turned off but this is not the same as being embedded.
    You can control-click on such an attachment and choose View as Icon but regardless - depending on the recipient's email client and available preference settings, such an attachment may appear inline or viewed in place within the body of the message when the message is opened (as with the Mail.app when receiving such an attachment) or as an attached file only which must be opened separately to be viewed for which the sender has no control over.
    The same is true in reverse. Windows Outlook and OE shows all message attachments as attached files only but when receiving an image/photo attachment with the Mail.app, it will appear inline or viewed in place within the body of the message.
    Using Send Windows Friendly Attachments has no control over or effect on this and should be used regardless when sending attachments to a Windows recipient. This feature removes the Apple resource fork for an attached file only which is invisible to fellow Mac users.
    Although the Mail.app does not include an HTML composer/editor, RTF with Tiger Mail is really HTML. The recipients who are reporting this problem are Windows Outlook users and Outlook has a problem with Mail's RTF and image/photo attachments.
    Use Send Windows Friendly Attachments, Plain Text for message composition instead of RTF and no need to select View as Icon which has no effect on the recipient's email client.

  • Hyperlinks from email, pdf and word no longer work to connect to that webpage, though they work in IE.

    I think I recently updated firefox, in any case, I do when requested. Just in the last few days, I can no longer make hyperlinks work from email, word or pdf documents. I have to cut and paste the url. I tried doing the reset under troubleshooting, but it did not work. I tried setting the network connection to auto detect, but that did not fix it either. As I can get hyperlinks to work with internet explorer, I assume it is something with firefox. I am not a particularly savy computer user, so clear instructions would be much appreciated. Thank you.

    Try to redo the default browser (i.e make IE the default and then let Firefox do it again).
