Acrobat 9 Pro Portfolio Editing Tools Disappeared?

Hello, I created a portfolio in Acrobat 9 Pro. I saved the file. When I reopen the file, all of my editing tools which are usually in a menu bar on the top of the document, are no longer available to me, ie. the "form", "multi-media" tabs. There is only one tool menu with a "modifiy" tab, which I set to "edit", but the only tools that become available to me are the "edit portfolio tools" that show up on the right hand side of the screen. How do I get back to a point where I can edit this document and add multi-media files?
I attached a pic of what the program looks like now, without the tools I need.
Please help
Robyn

What you are seeing is correct. The tools you are looking for (form, multi-media, etc) are all PDF document editing tools. However, a portfolio file isn't actually a document. It's a collection of files pulled together in a sort of a PDF wrapper.
The official definition from the help documentation:
A PDF Portfolio contains multiple files assembled into an integrated PDF unit. The files in a PDF Portfolio can be in different formats and created in different applications. For example, suppose you have a project that includes text documents, email messages, spreadsheets, CAD drawings, and PowerPoint presentations. You could combine all of these documents into a PDF Portfolio. The original files retain their individual identities but are assembled into one PDF Portfolio file. Users can open, read, edit, and format each component file independently of the other component files in the PDF Portfolio.
You can add multi-media files to the portfolio a number of ways, most commonly this is done via drag/drop, clicking on the buttons at the bottom of the portfolio window when it's in edit mode (what you have pictured), or selecting those same options (add files, add existing folder) from the modify menu in the portfolio toolbar.

  • Acrobat Pro 6 Commenting tools disappear

    Hi.
    One of our big clients are experiencing some, for me at least, strange problems.
    A while ago the two tools, Commenting, and Advanced commenting started to disappear from the Tools menu.
    When they reinstall Acrobat 6 it is there again , but after some days it is gone again ??
    Everything else in Acrobat 6 pro still works just fine
    we are talking about more than 50 users, it has been working fine for more than 4 years,
    the clients are installed via Microsoft SMS.
    Does anybody have any good ideas about what the problem can be
    Best regards
    Niels.

    Right-click the toolbar and select Quick Tools... There you can select
    which tools to place on the toolbar that appears at the top of the
    application, including the Commenting tools.

  • Acrobat Pro 9 Link Tool

    Hi,
    I am using the link tool in Acrobat Pro to link certain parts of a pdf document and then have the pdf accessed from a web browser
    The links work fine on the browser, but it want the linked document to open in a new browser window. (ie: target=_blank)
    It is currently opening it up in the same browser
    Any ideas how to achieve this ?
    Thanks
    Geoff

    Thanks for your suggestion. I've worked with one file at a time. So this is not an exactly answer. I'm afraid it's not possible to find a right solution: my problem has disappeared after another restart... So I'm confused now once more time. Maybe I should reinstall Acrobat - I've got upgraded version. But on the other hand: this software have worked fine for a couple of months.
    Conlusion: the problem is magically resolved and normal solution remains unkown. I'm curious about it.
    Greetings

  • Do I have to install Adobe Acrobat Pro to edit PDF files?

    I am subscribed to Adobe PDF Pack.
    I want the ability to drag and drop to insert, delete, and arrange pages. So it appears I need Adobe Acrobat Pro. Is that correct?
    If I upgrade to Adobe Acrobat Pro, do I have to install anything on my PC? Or can I simply drag and drop to insert, delete, and arrange pages online (in my browser) using the same login I use now for Adobe PDF Pack?
    I don't want to install anything. Hence my question.
    Thank you!
    Bob

    Hi robertm33760217,
    Yes, You would need Adobe Acrobat Pro to insert, delete, arrange pages.
    Yes, You would need to Instal the Acrobat software on your pc as Acrobat software won't work with your browser.
    Do you have any other query?

  • Acrobat Pro XI comment tool severe lag with rMBP

    Acrobat Pro XI on 15" rMBP works okay (still blurry, very frustrating), but when I try to use a "comment", everything slows down dramatically.
    I need to know if this is an issue with my settings, my computer or with the Adobe product?  If the product, is this a known issue that is in the works for resolution?
    If not, I need to search for a different product for my workflow.

    Hi,
    we have exactly the same problem. Try to measure something. It will work. Try again to measure again and again and at some point it will fail and Acrobat crashes. Ich have the latest Update v11.0.09 installed.
    I have recently setup a brand new PC. It worked for a few weeks, but now we have again the crashs. I will try to delete the preferences and see what happens.
    This is very annoying....
    Kind Regards

  • Purchased Acrobat Pro Subscription Edition (month-to-month) can't find it?

    When I try to download the program it uses Adobe Application Manager.  I see many Adobe programs to "try" but I do not see Acrobat in the list.  This is all I want. 
    I also have tried using Creative Cloud.  I have tried Explorer and Chrome browers.  I have unistalled Creative Cloud and tried again.  Am I supposed to be in Creative Cloud?  Am I supposed to be using Adobe App Manager?
    It seems like this should be very easy...  Adobe is anxious to "chat" to make a sale...
    Thanks in advance for any help

    You may want to ask in the CC forum. There may be better information from those who are doing exactly what you are doing.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro won't edit document created by Illustrator 2 and saved as PDF

    I've tried multiple things, but can't get Acrobat Pro to edit text within a PDF file which was created by Illustrator cs2 "Accumulated text within the attempted selection area is rotated other than horizontal or vertical.  Touchup cannot create a text selection area.".   I've searched google, read help....
    Fix was to download NitroPDF.   It quickly and easily edited the text.   So why won't Adobe do it...

    The same thing happens with pdf files that are not zip files even if saved from Acrobat Pro on my computer.

  • How can I manage to install Acrobat Pro XI in Safari ?

    Pascal Guernier May 5, 2014 8:26 AM
    Hi,
    Someone can tell me how I can manage to install Acrobat Pro XI as the default PDF reader ?
    Before I tried to remove Acrobat Reader XI from my MacBook Pro retina under Mac OS.X.9.2. With the help of Apple's phone support.
    We did clear all caches in libraries and in other places. But, rapidly perhaps, I've deleted a folder name Reader with The XI version ? Was it Acrobat Reader or Acrobat Pro ? I don't know ?
    Thank you for support because I'm in the french's taxes declaration...
    Best,
    Pascal

    Thank you for your question.
    First because I was unable to save a document with a right click. Just able to print, rotate and nothing more. And a mini left screen's menu. Except thumbnails and page number, no option.  And all the Acrobat Tools were not proposed. Such edit, remove a page. Optimize And so on.
    So I did believe it was a reduced version of Acrobat pro : Acrobat reader. A good tool too.
    The possible solution suggested by an another user was to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat Pro.
    In fact I succeeded by unistalling Acrobat Pro XI with the appropriate tool : an uninstaller. Located in the an adobe folder in Utility Tools. So I uninstall Acrobat Pro correctly. A cleaner is proposed for windows system at labs.adobe.com
    And I erased by throwing it, in the TrashCan, Acrobat READER.
    Then with Creative Cloud tool and my account I reinstalled Acrobat Pro XI.
    And then I followed Adobe's manual tips. First I chose a Pdf file. With a right click. And in the contextual menu I chose Informations. Then I selected Acrobat Pro XI as THE défaut reader. With an option named Complete too. In order that any PDF file will be opened by Acrobat Pro XI.
    And it seems to work.
    But your question is pertinent. Because if I had after a way to save the document with a Save icon, this doc. was a sensible one : my income taxes of 2013 provided by the french ministry of finance...
    So I was able to save this doc. And after in Acrobat Pro with usual tools I did compile all the compulsory others pdf docs.
    Thank you and Best regards

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro and Livecycle

    Hello,
    just recentlty purchased my Adobe Acrobat Pro to edit (especially my interactive calculations), which I created in LIvecycle on Windows.
    Unfortunately, I always just got the error message "This form cannot be edited in Acrobat. Please use Adobe LiveCycle Designer to edit this form."
    Unfortunately I am not using Windows any more, so was wondering, if there is any other way to edit my documents ?
    Thanks a lot, Marc

    No. You can only edit LC forms in LiveCycle, and it is not available on a
    Mac. Also, even on Windows it's no longer bundled with Acrobat. You have to
    purchase it separately (or request a download link if you had a previous
    license).
    I would suggest converting your files to "standard" Acrobat forms, if
    possible.

  • Can I convert a PDF to a Microsoft Word Document in Acrobat Pro?

    Does Acrobat PRO have the tools to convert an existing PDF to a Microsoft Word Doc?

    Yes, but the quality of the conversion depends on the structure of the PDF itself. Be prepared to recognize that the conversion may not be perfect if the PDF structure is not proper. You may also want to try the option to retain the format versus the text flow.
