Acrobat 9.4.1 - Saving issues

We are receiving the following error when trying to save a file, that has been downloaded from a website: The file may be read-only, or another user may have it open. Please save the document with a different name or in a different folder.
I've found other solutions in this forum and have tried what's been suggested, however nothing seems to work.  The file has only been open by the one user and no other user and is being saved to a network location.
Here's what we've tried so far:
- turned off Windows Explorer Preview
- turned off Acrobat security
- Saved to another location on the network and even on the user's desktop
Environment:
- Windows 7 Professional (32bit)
- Acrobat 9.4.1 Standard
- Office 2010 Professional
Any thoughts?

I loaded reader only after I started having this problem. I needed to open the
file and reader has no problem opening the file.
The reader install did recognize that acrobat was
installed asking me which one i wanted as my default reader

  • Acrobat/Reader, PDF/FDF saving issue.

    I am trying to get an "Email Application" button to work on my form. I have added the button, set it as a "Submit a Form" button, added the email link, and the export type as PDF. The button does as it should when using Acrobat on my computer, but on a different computer that only has Reader, the form will not save.
    The form that inspired me to add this Email button saves just fine as a PDF in Reader. The only way I can get it to save is to set the export type as FDF, and that's not what I want.
    How can I make this work?

    However, if you simply have the FDF sent, then you can import the FDF data file into the form and have the same result as if the entire form being sent. The advantage of the data submission rather than the form submission is that you avoid any issues of the limitations in the license agreement. I admit I have not checked the AA XI license agreement, but in the past there has been a 500 use limit on the form submission if reader enabled.
    If you are using e-mail submission as mentioned, be careful about any personal data included in the submission. E-mail is not a secure method of submission. Even with a web site, you may want to use a secure site if personal information is included.

  • Acrobat 10 has stopped saving ANY PDFs, old or new, scanned or downloaded

    Help! Recently my Acrobat 10 has stopped saving ANY PDFs, old or new, scanned or downloaded.  When I try to save a PDF a popup occurs telling me "The document could not be saved. There was a problem reading this document (8)."  What can be done to fix this issue?

    Hi rdabel,
    This is a generic error message, while saving a file which has some corrupt data.
    Can you please open the file, click on 'File - Properties', and under description, please check who is the PDF producer for a sample file.
    Also, please share the exact version of Adobe Acrobat 10 (Help menu - About Adobe Acrobat 10). The latest version of Adobe Acrobat is 10.1.12. You can also try updating your Acrobat to the latest version (Help - Check for updates) to see if that works for you.
    Thanks,

  • Acrobat X Pro ouput preview issue

    I have recently upgraded Acrobat from version 9 to 10. I frequently use the separations preview in the Output Preview tool to check the black separations on PDF files I receive for printing. When I try to click the black separation on and off again, I have to hold down on the mouse button for about half a second otherwise the separation checkbox doesn't toggle. It's not the end of the world but a pain when I have to check many multiple page PDF files. It didn't have this problem with the previous version 9. Has anyone else noticed this? I was wondering if it's an Acrobat bug or just an issue with my installation.

    Thanks for checking that Steve. After poking around I tried changing the Double-Click speed in the Mouse preferences to as fast as it will go and it seems to make a big difference when toggling a separation on and off and back on again. So I'm happy.

  • Acrobat x Pro / Word 2010 issues

    I have been using Acrobat 9 Pro for quite sometime.  I just downloaded Acrobat X Pro to try it out hoping I get better results with WORD 2010 than I did with 9.
    I am using Office 2010 32bit, Windows 7, and Acrobat X Pro.
    My issues are that When I try to convert a Word 2010 report to PDF, some of the graphics and text end up missing.
    I have found that the quality is better when you just go to SAVE AS > (select) PDF.
    The Acrobat Ribbon button, the SAVE AS ADOBE PDF, and printing using Adobe options give less than acceptable quality.
    Has anyone had the same issues and is there a resolution?  I am no reason to upgrade to "X" otherwise...

    Hi there,
    Could you provide some more detail about your file(s)?  Are there any common elements between the files you've been converting to PDF via the PDFMaker Ribbon or the Adobe PDF printer that are disappearing?  Is the text that's disappearing all of a certain font?
    I'd like to try to help if you could upload a sample file or provide some additional detail!
    Thanks,
    David

  • Ultrabeat Saving Issues

    Greetings,
    I did a bit of searching on this and other forums, but found very little on this subject. When saving Ultrabeat presets, sometimes the sample OSC has none loaded and sometimes, it loads a completely different drum (Taiko for example). Has anyone else commonly seen this error within Ultrabeat? I noticed that this only happened with my previous custom template, "pre" Time Machine + Airport Update. Also, I noticed that if my template already has an Ultrabeat loaded on Logic Startup, the same weird bug happens again.
    In short: Does anyone else have Ultrabeat preset saving issues, and if so, what did you do to work around it?
    I know this problem is elsewhere on this forum, and somewhat forgotten, but I want to start fresh on this topic, and hopefully get to the bottom of this.

    We can only hope that Apple solves this issue as well. But when you think about it, where do they begin with so many problems to address?
    The Apples will need all the luck and coffee this side of the World. I don't even know what to expect from their ever so popular "update". I'm calling apple today, but they'll tell me the same thing they always say......which is not much.
    Oh well, less crying, more producing.

  • Numbers saving issue

    This message pops up about every 10 minutes. Can you tell me how to correct the issue?
    I'm running a MacBook Pro v 10.9.2 and Numbers v 3.2.
    The Numbers spreadsheet is on my local hard drive and no one else is using it.

    This Numbers document has always been in my Documents folder. But I copied it to my Desktop, then moved it back and I have the same "Saveing Issue" as shown above. It is really hard to believe that anyone using Numbers does not have this problem.

  • Day light Saving Issue

    Hi,
    I am facing an issue with Date and Time objects. This looks something to do with the daylight-saving (UK).
    I have a date field in the database where a date is saved with time as 00:00:00, say for example 23/01/1999 00:00:00
    Upon querying and getting the result set, I am getting the Date and Time objects using rs.getDate() and rs.getTime().
    Date is obtained correcting as 23/01/1999 and the Time object is 00:00:00. But when I do a getTime() on Time object
    to get the milliseconds, it returns as -3600000 which is an hour back. This is causing an issue here.
    Can someone please suggest me if this is a daylight saving issue as we have moved ahead by 1 hour here in UK.
    Or is this issue fixed in any of the latest jdk, I am using jdk1.5.0_12?
    Many Thanks

    Hi,
    Please find the below code. Consider the date stored in the db is 23/01/1999 00:00:00
             Date dateValue = rs.getDate (COLUMN_NAME);
             if (dateValue != null)
                   dateValue = new Date(dateValue.getTime() + rs.getTime (COLUMN_NAME).getTime());
             }Here, the dateValue obtained in line 1 is right which is 23/01/1999. Also rs.getTime (COLUMN_NAME) gives the time as 00:00:00 which is correct.
    But when I do a getTime() on it to get the milliseconds it returns -3600000 which is one hour back.
    So finally when i add the date milliseconds and time milliseconds to get a new date value, it goes back one hour because of the -ve value. In this case since time is 0, going back one hour will switch the date back by one day. Hence the dateValue which I get after executing this code is 22/01/1999 23:00:00 which is wrong.
    Could you please help me on this?

  • Excel saving issues error: Someone else is working right now, please try again later"

    Excel saving issues  error: Someone else is working right now, please try again later"        
    I am running W8.1 with Office 2013 and accessing a shared drive, When I try to save an excel document back to the shared drive - I get the error msg
    "Someone else is working in "servername\share\filename" right now, please try again later"
    I can see that there is no one else accessing this file at all. I created a brand new file, added content, saved and got the same error.
    When I use a W7 with Office 2013 accessing the same share drive, accessing the same file - I am able to save the document without issues.
    Does anyone have any ideas what this could be.  Both of these situations are while working from home using a company vpn connection. It does not happen when in the office using either W8.1 or W7.
    Peter.

    Hi,
    Saves when saving locally. Its looking more like W8.1 on a VPN connection that is causing the issue. What can I look for
    I mean you can try to save it to local drive(like drive c:) and then copy it to shared drive.
    If you gain the access to the shared file server, you can check the file status when you open this file.
    Also you can check your event log to see which process causes this error.
    Since I'm not familiar with VPN, I'd suggest you post your issue to the following forum:

  • Illustrator CC Command and Saving Issues

    HI,
    My colleagues and I updated to Illustrator CC this week. We were hoping that the upgrade may fix an issue we have(in a seperate thread) and while it hasn't fixed it, it does seem to have created a couple more bugs as follows:
    1. Certain commands such as cut, group/ungroup, zoom etc.. dont seem to work all the time by using the keyboard shortcuts. If I try a command and it doesnt work, I need to scroll the page over using the mouse slightly and then the command seems to work for a few moments. Sometimes I am needing to do this 3 or 4 times in one job which can get quite infuriating.
    2. Sometimes when after openeing a file and adjusting the artwork, it is not giving the option to save(it is grayed out and the keyboard command doesnt work) and the file can only use 'Save As'
    Stangley it doesnt seem to be happening on all our machines, we have 5 Macs running CC and only 2 have the Command Shortcut issues and only 1 seems to have the saving issue
    Has anyone else had either of these issues or are aware of them? If so do you know of a solution or reason to the problems.
    Any input would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks

  • Acrobat Saving issue or Product Question

    I am developing a .net c# software to be used in house. I have Adobe Professional 8. I am able to put the pdf file into a form using the acrobat.dll file that comes with professional and this allows me to save the filled forms locally and also print them which is exactly what I need except for one thing. I'm going to have about 20 users in the building use this program and it's my understanding that distributing the software with the appropriate dll's won't work. Every user will have to have a copy of Professional on there machine in order to make it work. This would be very expensive and I doubt if I could sell it to upper management.
    The reader activex module works perfectly except you can't save the files programmatically you have to use the damn save button on the toolbar which is unacceptable. I can't have users saving and naming forms anything and anywhere they want to.
    I understand the need for Adobe not allowing people to have access to local hard drives on the internet, but my software will go no where near a web page.
    My question is, is there a product that Adobe makes that would allow me to save filled pdf files locally.
    I could even use the ability to save just the data, if I could read it in later. (Anyone have a clue or a bright Idea).
    I would rather not use a third party control, but I may be forced to.
    Robert

    It may be possible to setup a save button on the screen that uses JavaScript to do the job. I am not sure, but it might be a solution to your problem.
    Before you go too much further, it might be worth taking a bit of time to read the EULA with regards to the user rights to be sure your use is within the limits of the EULA. The EULA does not look at forms in the sense of web distribution, but in terms of using the form. I think it also is in terms of number of uses.
    Purchasing the extended rights server is probably not a reasonable solution for you at the price that it typically costs. For a small office, it would probably be cheaper to buy everyone Acrobat.
    As long as the EULA is not a limiting feature, then look at alternatives such as JavaScript for saving the forms. I am a bit concerned about the automatic nature that Acrobat may have some issues with. Also, depending on the network saving to a network drive may be an issue - several folks have had problems with that.
    I probably am not helping in understanding you need either, but at least it is another twist to consider.

  • In Acrobat reader X -default saving location do not funcion.

    In previous versions of Acrobat reader the application would remember where I usually save my files and would by default suggest the same location next time I attempted to save a document.
    For employees that recieve hundreds of pdf.attachemts that needs to be saved its is huge effort to keep browsing to the folder of prefrens. This will be especially time requiring with a huge file structure that we normally have in companies.
    If pfd attachments are openned trough outlook for example upon trying to save them adobeb suggests to save it in a outlook cash folder under internet temporary map.
    This problem started with the latest version of Adobe and was not an issue with the ninth version. The X version always suggest to save the file to where it was oppened from and does not remember where I usually save my files.
    My question is:
    Are you awear of this problem?`
    Will there be a update with fix for this?
    I have seen many asking the same question here but it has been remained unanswered.
    Thankful for anykind of feedback.

    This circumstance annoys me, too.
    I already looked into the registry but couldn't find a matching key to edit this adjustment.
    Is there any way to get rid of that and to recover the old behaviour?
    Would be very appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!

  • Adobe Reader X Saving issue

    After converting to Adobe X we are having issues with "save as" or "save" feature.
    In 9 you could save a scanned pdf into a directory with a click of a button - after the first save when you save the second one it defaults to where you saved before.  Now you have to do a file save as and then each save requires you to drill down into the directory you were at before.  Pain in the neck....we have reverted by to 9 until this is fixed.

    Thanks for the info. Maybe that would be nice to build into the Reader and/or Acrobat a function to check any existing installed Adobe versions on the PC and warn the user if there would be any incompatibility issue during the installation of a new Adobe product. Many no-name programs can do that............ The great Adobe no would be able to do that???????

  • Weird saving issue with subforms

    I have a strange issue going on when a form is saved.
    If you open this form:
    https://acrobat.com/#d=CyR7W1v3MGBCkNI*QCCRkw
    ...and enter data into the "Hotel Reward Accounts" section, save the form, then reopen it, the data entered now shows up in the "Frequent Flyer Account" section. I've gone through this with a fine-toothed comb and cannot figure out what is causing this. Can someone take a look at it and see what I'm missing?
    Thanks so much!
    Jo

    Did you copy-and-paste the hotel name and account number from the airline name and account number?
    The bindings are duplicated.
    bene_FirstName  $record.beneficiaries.beneficiary[*].bene_FirstName
    bene_LastName  $record.beneficiaries.beneficiary[*].bene_LastName
    HotelName          $record.beneficiaries.beneficiary[*].bene_FirstName
    HotelAccNum      $record.beneficiaries.beneficiary[*].bene_LastName
    I changed the attached so HotelName and HotelAccNum use name for binding.

  • Illustrator CS6 saving issue!

    Hi,
    I(and my colleagues) am having an Issue with CS6 when saving files. This has only happened over the past week or so yet we are unable to find a solution and need some help.
    When saving a file using the 'Save' option (not 'Save As') the file is not staying at the size of the artboard as it should, it is however being aurtomatically cropped down to the actual artwork size. This is causing issues with the Process we work with as we need the file to stay at the artboard size.
    If I click 'Save As' and change the Adobe PDF Preset to 'Press Quality' then this works, however this means that every file we save(which is quite alot in a day) means we have to go through the 'Save As' option and manually change each save.
    Does anyone know why this has suddently started to happen with our Illustrators and do you know how to fix this so that it stays at the Artboard size when 'Save' is used?
    I appreciate any help anyone can give on this.

    Having the same problem with artboards and pdf's.  Here is a screen shot of the issue.
    PDF in Illustrator CC
    Same PDF opened in Acrobat.
    Any ideas?
