Acrobat 7 document goes blank after digital signature

Secretary creates document on network drive. When a manager digitally signs the document it goes blank. Acrobat Pro 7.1.4. After multiple tries the document will work. Can automatic saving be disabled during the signing procedure so that the document does not have to be recreated to be signed again.

Finally I found the solution.
The file size increase is a result of the embedded information used for long-term signature validation.
If you do not need this feature, you can turn it off:
Preferences > Security > Advanced Preferences > Creation tab
disable "Include Signature’s Revocation"

Screen goes blank after a few mins, no matter what I do

I have a slight problem: I ran an update, which brought me a brand-new shiny kernel and a brand-new shiny xorg-server. It took me a few days until I bothered to reboot my computer and after that things got hairy.
After a few minutes, screen goes blank.
I set a screensaver of my Gnome desktop to 2 hours, no effect.
Power manager sliders have exactly to positions: 2 hours 1 minute and never, neither one has any effect on this.
I said 'xset dpms force on', no effect.
Even when I try to watch a movie with mplayer, screen still goes blank after a few minutes (usually mplayer inhibits this kind of stuff).
Now, I find it really hard to believe that this could be any hardware issue, after all, if video card or display would be faulty, I would probably either get a picture on the screen or don't get a picture on the screen, not some unwanted screen suspend every few minutes.
So I have to assume it's a software thing. Kernel doesn't seem very likely to be the guilty one, so I guess it is that steaming pile of crap we know as xorg-server, which got upgrade from 1.6.1 to 1.6.1.901 (sounds like wannabe-1.6.2), to be take the blame here.
There is no 1.6.1 package in the cache or in any repos I checked, so hard to downgrade. Of course I could hack some pkgbuild from AUR and install that, but somebody told me that I would probably also have to compile drivers against that so if that's correct (is it?), then I would consider that as a last option.
Any ideas?

Screen goes blank after 10 secs when i access hotmail

my screen has been going blank after 19 secs when I open Hotmail or the farmville game. The audio however is fine but the screen turns blank (grey).
This problem started after I downloaded IOS 5 for my iPad on the imac and then synchronised my itunes from iMac to iPad. I alsoactivated i Cloud.

Yeah, I think it must just be an insanely infrequent occurrence, since no one on here has replied in a couple days besides you. I know the screen is supposed to stay on the entire time that there is an incoming call from the lock screen now, since I had a chance to ask a few friends that just got iphones as well. I'm thinking a restore would fix the problem, although I think I'm just going to wait until there is an update, which I would assume would be soon, before I do the restore, since its just an annoyance and not a problem.

When i open the itunes store, the screen goes blank after 2 seconds so I cant order music

When I open the itunes store, the screen goes blank after 2 seconds, so I cant order any music?

IPhone 4 screen goes blank after lock screen

My iPhones screen works perfectly on the lock screen but as soon as i enter the passcode it goes blank.
Its still fully functional in terms of recieving calls, vibrating, screenshotting etc. but what could i do to fix it.
I've already tried reseting the settings by holding the home and sleep button at the same time.
What else can I do?

I'm sorry, but this makes no sense. What do you mean by "screenshotting"? How can you tell anything is working if the screen goes blank after you enter the passcode?
If a reset didn't fix it, try a restore. If that doesn't fix it, restore it as a new device.

Please help - my N82 realplayer goes blank after 3...

now i know that the N82 may be considered a dated model by todays standards, but bear with me because i finally got one (and a used one at that too). two weeks into owning it and i love it already.
the firmware says:
v31.1.0.16
09.12.08
RM313
i've spent days checking out available add-ons, installing and uninstalling them (also hugely due to the advice i only discovered about installing to the phone memory for better performance). so i've pretty much got it up to the kind of phone i can be proud to carry around.
i face one problem - realplayer goes blank after 3 seconds of playing any video.
i did all these:
- dragged and dropped videos from my pc to phone storage (My Videos)
- copied videos to phone memory (My Videos also)
- converted the videos to mp4, and also 3gp using xilisoft converter before transferring
- tried using Nokia Nseries Video Manager. gave up because it was so user-unfriendly. i could only copy back to pc; i could not find any way to convert and transfer to phone in there
none of these could make realplayer play videos past 3 seconds. i could hear audio though.
the strange thing is realplayer plays when i click on a video in file manager. it does not auto rotate to landscape mode, and does not play more than the file i click on.
can someone help me? sorry i had to post here. i googled for answers, saw a lot of posts from n95 users saying the same thing but didn't see any solution posted. i could not find anything in the boards here either. i would much rather fix this single issue than to perform an update for fear of losing everything i have done in my phone so far.
thanks in advance

Thank you guys for all your solutions. Problem solved on my own (again).
Despite being smartphones, Nokia phones (well, mine anyway) behave erratically when loaded with applications and games, but most expecially with too many themes onboard.
Install one theme too many and you'll start seeing how badly the N82 copes with performing as it did out of the box.
I've had these few nagging issues, which I solved on my own without having to resort to a soft reset or a hard reset or a firmware update or a reformat like everyone suggests without thinking, THANKFULLY.
1. Realplayer doesn't display video in landscape mode
- Bring the number of installed 3rd party themes down to a minimum
- start uninstalling applications, beginning from the most recent one, and check realplayer each time.
2. Multimedia button won't bring up Gallery
- Bring the number of installed 3rd party themes down to a minimum
- Restart phone and see if it does the second time around
- Uninstall the most recent application/s and check again
3. "Help" is not accessible from the menu. It says "Memory full" every time
- Bring the number of installed 3rd party themes down to a minimum
- Start uninstalling applications again, and recheck.
4. Camera recording works fine for 10 seconds, then it stutters every 5 seconds
- If you are using a new memory card like I did, just perform a format from the phone and not the computer before using it. I used it without formatting it so it was my fault.
(but I cannot believe I had to find this solution outside the Nokia boards)
Do I hate my N82? No, I love it.
Do I hate encountering problems on my phone? Of course I do.
It's a great phone, capable of delivering more than other phones if you exploit it like I do, but I wish the developers have the decency to put up a list of common problems and fixes for the phones they roll out, not leave it the hands of discussion board "wizards" and "gurus" to solve your mistakes.

My screen goes blank after I see the white start up screen

What kind of iMac do you have? A PowerPC G3, G4, G5, or an Intel-based iMac? What OS are you using? OS 9, OS 10.2.x Jaguar, 10.3.x Panther, 10.4.x Tiger, 10.5.x Leopard, 10.6.x Snow Leopard, 10.7.x Lion, 10.8.x Mountain?
This particular forum is for older PowerPC G3, G4, G5 iMacs running OS 10.5.8 or older. If your iMac was made after 2006, then you have an Intel-based iMac.
That being said, here are a few tips to try:
Option 1
Restart the computer while holding down the Option key. This will tell the computer to look for bootable drives. If it finds your normal startup disk, select let, then click the right pointing arrow to boot up the computer. Now open up System Preferences> System> and select your normal Startup OS as the default startup disk.
Option 2
Reset your PRAM. Press and hold down the Command Option P R keys while starting your computer. You will hear the startup chime. continue holding down those keys until you hear the startup chime a second time. Release the keys. If the computer restarts, you will need to reset your Date and Time. It might be time to replace your PRAM battery.
Option 3
Reset the SMC by removing all cables (USB, Firewire, Ethernet, Modem, Power cord) from the back of your computer. Let it sit for one minute. Press and hold the power on button on the back of the iMac while plugging in the power cord. Release the power on button. Count to five, the press the power on button again.
Option 4
Place your original, came with the iMac when purchased install disk, into the slot on the iMac, press and hold the C key while pressing the power on button on the back of the computer. (If you have upgraded your OS from when you purchased your iMac, example your iMac came with OS 10.3 installed, and you're now using OS 10.5, then use the OS 10.5 Retail Install disk that you had used to upgrade your OS instead of the original, came with the iMac disk.)
Continue holding the C key until you see the OS starting to load. DO NOT do an OS installation. At the top Menu bar, select Utilities or Utility, and pull down to Disk Utility. On the left side of the window that opens,select your normal OS drive. Click First Aid at the top middle of the window if it isn't already selected. Click Repair Disk from the lower right area of the window. When that is done, click Repair Permissions to the left of the Repair Disk button you clicked earlier.
When that is done, quit Disk Utility. From the top Menu bar (I think its under Utilities) select the Start Up Manager, and choose your normal boot volume as the startup disk. Restart the computer. If successful, and you've rebooted from your normal startup disk, eject the install DVD/CD, and you're good to go.
Good luck.

How can I save PDF document after Digital signature ?

I am using adobe reader and after signing the document (Digital signature) I can not save the document.

What is your operating system? What is your Reader version?
I probably won't have an answer for you, but the information may help somebody else who might.

Acrobat 9,10 failing to validate digital signature while Acrobat 8 validating it.

I am facing an issue while validating a digital signature. I applied a certified signature with “Annotation, form fill-in, and digital signatures” but
when I apply Redaction “find and permanently remove” on a digitally signed document, Adobe Acrobat 9 and 10 complains that signature is Invalid But Adobe 8 is validating it. I have analyzed that Adobe Acrobat applying Redaction in append mode and original content of signature remains unchanged after Redaction.
Can someone let me know what should be the actual behavior?
Why Adobe Acrobat 9 and 10 failing to verify the signature even Adobe Acrobat keep enable Redaction which means it is allow to apply in a certified signed document with “Annotation, form fill-in, and digital signatures” option.
Prompt responses are greatly appreciated!!

When you sign, you should see where you can select the signature appearance name from a dropdown in the dialog.

Creating Documents to Support Multiple Digital Signatures

I am currently working on creating a paperless business process utilizing Adobe Acrobat's Digital Signature Feature. However, I'm having a lot of problems utilizing it.
Can somebody please explain the entire process from document creation in Word to creating the digital signature fields to distributing the document and receiving signed versions back?
Also, how can I enable this feature so coworkers with Adobe Reader can sign and send back to me?
Thank you very much,
Jeff

A tip: if you want "multiple signatures" to mirror a paper workflow
where someone signs a document in more than one place, this does not
fly in PDF. In PDF, a person does not sign the same document more than
once (except perhaps to countersign after they signed, then someone
else changed).
Also bear in mind that if you have the idea that you will send out a
document, that it will be signed separately by multiple people, then
you will merge the signatures back into a single document, that this
flies even less well.

IBM Thinkpad Monitor goes blank after a few miniutes

Hi,
I have aT43p with an ATI Mobility FireGL V3200 running XP Sp2. For the past couple of weeks the screen goes blank (Black) after several minutes. I can use the Fn-F7 to toggle the monitor between LCD and external monitor (which is not attached) and back to LCD (or dual display) and the LCD works again!, but alas only for several more moments and then it goes blank again and I have to re-toggle. I find that if I run on only battery power I get several extra minutes before Blacks-Ville. The same effect can be achieved by putting her to sleep and then waking her.
I should mention that there is a slight pink tinge to the display during the initial splash screen (while the option to enter the Bios via blue Access IBM button), but this goes completely for subsequent screen displays.
I can connect across the LAN using VNC and can see windows (as one would expect).
I have gone to the support area and downloaded all drivers and reinstalled to no avail. I have also checked the Monitor connections, but there is no obvious loose connection. I have also run a in-depth virus analysis (using ESET NOD) and an Adaware sweep, again with no positive result. I have also gone into MSCONFIG, disabled as much as I can and I have also rolled back using System Restore to a time before the issue presented.
Nothing that I have done to date has made the slightest difference.
The screen Blacks even if I go straight to Bios which inclines me to think that the problem lies outside of Windows.
If anybody has any ideas or suggestions I would really appreciate it.
Thanks
Dave

Hello ddempsey,
I can confirm all your problems (except the "slight pink tinge"- sure it is not
a reflection or so?), I've got them on my a21p since a couple of years as well.
I am using an external monitor after I tried all software possibilties and was
fed up with the toggling. colours are still excellent, I contradict a dying
as such, a digital display is either on or off, not fading away.
in desperation I replaced the inverter card (part number 12P3053) as a
last resort but without any success.
so I was happy to find one with exact the same problem and I hope
by jumping on your train that someone comes up with a solution.
have you tried this:
if you do not boot windows, leaving a plain start screen
either by pressing pause or later f8 the display shuts down
in the same way, thereby proving that the problem
is beyond an explanation due to a higher resolution task.
this arouses a suspicion whether the ATi Rage Mobility graphic card
(messing up in all brands of notebooks - see copious complains in the www)
might be the cause. unfortunately ATI been bought by AMD
but the support of its successor for old cards is a disgrace compared
what Lenovo still delivering for ancient IBM users!
regardsDamian

Acrobat Standard 8 - why is the digital signature not responding?

Using Acrobat version 8 and it is fully updated.
When I try to insert a digital signature, it freezes and when I eventually close the digital signature window, it says it is not responding and the program shuts down.
This is using a document that I use frequently and only recently started having problems with the digital signature.
Why is this happening and how can I fix it?
Thank you!

Hi,
I'd like to clarify some points. You use a digital ID to create a digital signature, not unlike how you use a pen to create (what we refer to as) a wet ink signature. When it comes to applying a digital signature to a document, you can sign just about any blob of electronic data. You can sign your e-mail or a MS Word document as well as a PDF file. The signature itself lives either in the document (that's how Acrobat does it when signing a PDF file), or it can be an external attachment (that's what the smime.p7s file is you might see attached to some e-mail messages).
Here is where I'm a bit confused. How many digital IDs do you have access to? If you only have one, does it cause Acrobat to lock up when signing a specific PDF file or when you try to sign any PDF file? Same question if you have more than one digital ID available to sign with, they all cause Acrobat to lock you when signing just one specifc file or any file? When you try to sign, are you signing an existing signature field, or are you creating a signature on the fly, be it either visible or invisible? If it is just one file that is causing the problems then that file is probably corrupt. If it's any file then it is a more systemic problem and I don't have an off the shelf answer for you.

"Save As" requested instead of "Save" after digital signature of my PDF

Hi all,
I use Adobe Reader XI.
I have a PDF file configured with a set of fields to be filled in.
One of these fields is a digital signature field.
Everyting is working fine: I can fill the fields and sign the document with my ID card, as you can see below :
The problem I have is that when I sign my document with my digital signature, Adobe request a "Save As". I would like to know if there is a way to only use a "Save" ?
That requirement is very important since we will deploy the solution to more than 5000 users in an environment which is integrated with other tools, and for the whole stuff to work, the users can't change the file name nor file path... In that scenario, you will understand that proposing a "Save As" by default is not the good way to go.
Ciould you please tell me if a solution exists for this ?
Thanks already
Benoît

Never mind, I found the answer.
A matter of setting the Firefox options so that PDF files open in Reader or whatnot rather than prompt to save.

Satellite A100: Screen goes blank after a while of no action and can't be reactivated

Hi all
I am after a bit of advise/help. I have a satellite A100 & after its been on for an extended period with no keyboard input (like burning dvds), the screen goes blank. It doesn't matter which keys I press I can't make it come back on. The only way out of it that I have found is to restart the machine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Gary

Hi,
normally this means the machine is in standby mode (power LED is blinking orange). To reactivate you have to push the power button. Then it should bring back all opened windows as before going into standby.
You can deactivate standby function in the power management. (Start -> control panel -> power management)
Bye
