Acrobat Forms for iPad end user

I am creating a multipage selection document for a client. My client would like the form to work with Acrobat Reader on the iPad. I have several features that work on my computer but not on the iPad. I have a few buttons set up to perform actions that don't function.
1. The submit button doesn't appear at the top of the form (neither does the highlight fields button). I placed a secondary Submit Form button. The function of this is to submit completed form back to my client.
2. How do I make the text flelds show up once typed in? Right now, you can type in them but once you are finished, the text field seems empty when you click off of it?
Anyone have any ideas on fixing these issues?
Thanks for your help!

The Adobe product is Mobile Reader and the Adobe product and all PDF reading processing apps are dependent upon the capabilities of the mobile device. Since the Apple mobile devices and the android mobile devices have limitations as to main and secondary storage space support applications like JavaScript and Flex/Flash might not or as is the fact is not available. Not only is the UI different but also the support for many interactive features are no longer available and developers need to test forms on each platform and app to see what works and does not work. Did I mention that not all apps provide JavaScript emulation? Well there are apps for which form calculations do not work or only partially work. So again you need to test.

I get a message saying: "Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User License Agreement". HELP!!

Hi i have an iMac with 10.9.3 and when i tried to open a PDF link or a PDF document in Safari 7.0.4 this message appears: "Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User License Agreement". What can i do to solve this?

Back up all data before making any changes.
Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
Step 2
There should be a setting in the preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
Step 3
If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
and check the box marked
Allow Plug-ins
Then click
Manage Website Settings...
and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
Step 4
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
Step 5
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
Step 6
Do as in Step 4 with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

"first open Acrobat and accept the End User Agreement License" with black window? Cannot open downloaded PDFs

I have CS5 installed and operating in my MacBook Pro since 2012.
Several months ago, I ran not an issue where by, when trying to download PDFs from any website, I get the following back screen and message"
"Before proceeding, you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User License Agreement"
The screen gives me no options to do this and, regardless of what I do, the same window with the same message opens…….
Does anyone know how to address this? FYI. I can use Acrobat Pro 9 to assemble and create PDFs, this is the ONLY problem that I am dealing with.
Thanks so much!
Steve

Hello Rave!
Thanks for remembering me!
No, I was never able to get this to work.
What I found, however, is that I can view the pdfs normally if I use Firefox instead on my default, Safari…….not much of a fix BUT at least I can access the pdfs now……..I just don't understand why this seems to happen in Safari only………Safari is updated to the latest version via Software Update in Mac OS 10.7.5….
Thanks again!
Steve

Query regarding the fields details in particular form for all the users in

Dear All,
I have one query regarding the fields details in particular form for all the users in company.
Let take an exapmle if i had created Purchase Order having fields in content tab as 1.Item No. 2.Quantity 3.Unit Proce 4.Total 5. Location.
While Login in User manager i set these fields only for Purchase order , but when i login from other user and open the similar purchase order the defaults fields are also seen including above 4 fieds .
Now my question is how to set the User choice fiels for the particular form that are common to all users.
Means whenever i login in any user and opens the same document the same fields should be seen....Thanksssss.........

You have to login with each and every user and do the Form Settings of every forms, so that all the forms look same for all the users.
This is a manual job and you have do do it with every user login.
Alternately, you can try out this link that explains

Repeated message "Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User

I am now getting repeated pop-ups of a dialog box that says:
Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User License Agreement.
However, there is no menu command or preference to do so in either Adobe Acrobat Reader X version 10.1.6, or Acrobat Pro X 10.1.6 CS6 (I'm a CS6 subscriber)
How can I make this annoying dialog go away? What caused it to start appearing?
I'm running OSX 10.8.2 on a recent iMac, Safari 6.0.2 (8536.26.17)

There seem to be at least two different problems.
Some people need to run a copy of Acrobat/Reader and accept the agreement which appears (just pops up).
Some people have something worse.
I recommend checking in Applications to see if there are any other Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader apps shown, and start them.

Questions for the end users in Building an application.

Questions for the end users in Building an application.
Hello,
I am assigned a project in building a CF application. As far
as the business requirements, I have an idea from the MIS people.
However, I have a meeting with direct users and I have to ask
questions to add to my requirements. I am still a beginner in this
but I need to ask questions.
Can anyone give me tips? what basic / important questions?

For starters,
DO:
Ask them to discuss what they want to do with the application
Try to understand their level of computer literacy
Keep your conversation non-technical
Continue to interact with the users during the design and
development process
Try to identify a "champion" with whom you can interface as the
project progresses
DON'T:
Use technical terms or discuss technical issues
Talk down to them
Promise delivery dates until you have documented their
requirements and they have approved them

From acrobat 11.0.07 before proceeding you must first launch adobe acrobat and accept the end user license agreement

Whenever I try to click on a link to open a pdf file, I receive the following message "before proceeding you must first launch adobe acrobat and accept the end user license agreement"
However, my adobe acrobat is working well and I just recently uploaded it. Any ideas?

Hi stephendubai,
What browser are you using? Please see the last post in this thread to see if the linked document resolves your issue as well: Re: Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept EULA

Is it possible for an end user to change application Theme?

Hi
Is it possible for an End user to change the theme or Font of the application.
We have a requirement where End user should able to change color or font of application (like we do theme change in some social networking websites)
Please provide some suggestions.
Many Thanks
--Vijay

You could:
1. export your current theme
2. change the exported file using a good editor and change the path
#IMAGE_PREFIX#themes/theme_10/
to
#IMAGE_PREFIX#themes/theme_&THEME_NUMBER./
and do that also with all strings related to that theme number.
3. crete an application item THEME_NUMBER
4. create an application computation for THEME_NUMBER to set it to a value (10) in case the value is null
5. import the theme and make it the current theme
6. create a link in your application which will set the value of THEME_NUMBER to whatever - 1 to 20 for the standard themes - and submit the change
This will change the template as you specify.
This explanation is of course simplified. Depending on the design of your application it may require considering some other details that need to be adjusted.
Something like in this example:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=25882:1
The assumption is that all of your referenced classes in all css files have the same name for the same class with a leading theme number (which istn't the case in standart themes). However, this can at least give you an idea on how to proceed. I have done that with some custom themes I created and it works very well.

Apple, please allow downgrade to iOS7 for iPad 2 users. iOS8 is vera slow!

Apple, please allow downgrade to iOS7 for iPad 2 users. iOS8 is vera slow!

I had the same problem with my iPad 2 after upgrading to ios8. I went to Apple Store to ask and confirmed that it is a very common problem to ipad2 owners. I asked the techician why didn't we get a "warning" from Apple, and he said Apply was not responsible and simply not in their agenda for that. I was very disappointed as I thought essentially Apple wanted to push older iPad owners to buy the ne, because my iPad 2 is basically a piece of crap after the upgrade. I understand, our machines get old and not powerful enough to take newer updates. But what is unreasonable and unacceptable is the fact that Apple did not provide any guidance on this before owners decided to upgrade iOS or not.

Forms application not opening for the end user.

I have an Oracle Form that works fine when I copy the url into the browser and user the login credentials of the schema owner. But when I use the credentials of the end user, it does not open the form. I receive no error messages.
To troubleshoot, I opened the form in Forms Builder, log in as the end user and Compile, but I get no error messages.
I also took a call to a server-side procedure that is in the Form, and ran it in SQL Developer, once again while logged in as the end user, and it ran successfully.
I’m not sure what could be wrong. Any suggestions on how to debug this?

To troubleshoot, I opened the form in Forms Builder, log in as the end user and Compile, but I get no error messages.What happens if you run the form from forms-builder with that credentials.

I have an apple computer, I have downloaded adobe reader and acrobat, but now I am asked the following,Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch adobe reader and accept the End User License Agreement and relaunch browser<<<<<<But how you accept the end user license, when you can not even find the agree button

Did you do that: launch the standalone Reader (not the browser plugin) and accept the EULA?

Creating fill-in-able forms for iPad

I've created (in Acrobat X) a fill-in-able form for a multiuser iPad which is emailed upon completion. Is it possible to have this form not be automatically saved by Adobe Reader in the iPad? I would like to preserve the original form intact on the iPad.

What the users need to do is first create a duplicate and then work with the duplicate. This is the opposite procedure from what you'd do on Windows/Mac with a Save As. You do this in the Document list by clicking the Edit button, select the file, and touch the Duplicate icon.

Fields in fillable form truncated by end-user

My fillable .pdf is working fine here in our office. But, when I send it to an outside end-user, some of the fields are being truncated. One of the fields is a phone number field, that I have set-up with the 'phone number' format. It is not defaulting and auto-fitting by the end user. Another field is a simple 4 character limited field, with auto font fit (I hope I am using correct terminology here). With the end-user, they are inputting the info, but the font is staying large and not fitting in the field. The end-user is using Acrobat X, the same as I am.
Any clues?
Julie

Okay, George... Looks like your original thought about it being a Mac was correct. :-) Although, the end-user was not using the Mac... the person from our office that *sent* it to the end-use was using the Mac. Thus, it somehow 'corrupted' (not sure that is the correct verbiage) the file. So, when I sent the file to the end-user through my PC, it worked just fine... or so it seems. I have received back forms from two of my 'test' end-users and they say it works great! :-)
Thank you so much! It was very kind of you to work on emails with me, as well!

Acrobat form on Ipad - form field to open camera and use photo in field?

If I am using a acrobat form on an Ipad can I set a required field to open the camera, take a photo, and place the photo in the field?

It's possible, but not with Reader for iOS. The only PDF viewer for iOS that I know it can be done with is Readdle's PDF Expert. You can set up a button with a layout other than "Label Only", and use the following JavaScript in the button's Mouse Up event:
// Mouse Up script
event.target.buttonImportIcon();
It will allow you to take a picture or use an image from a photo library.

Minimal access for the end users to access a page sharepoint.

I have a list Projects which i have put in a different aspx page by the name ProjectPage.
I have end users accesing that page where i have applied certian styles for dsplaying in a customized way.
However, i need to configure their permissions in such a way that they should be able to access any page other than the project page.
They should not even see the site actions bar and should not be able to access the _layouts/viewlsts.aspx page as well as settings page form the address bar.

Hello,
To restrict application page, either you can hide them from UI (but still be accessible by putting direct url) OR create a custom permission and uncheck "view application page" option. Refer this link for more info:
