Acrobat Security Warning W7 64

After upgrading to W7 64 I am getting a securty warning from
Acrobat 8.1 whenever I open it. the warning us do I want to allow Acrobat to make changes to the computer. I click yes and everything is fine. However when I open PDF from the web, I get this warning at least twice and often the download fails.
I installed Acrobat as an administration, I have tried "run as administrator") neither of these work. Anybody else get this issue?
Is this an 8 issue that will be resolved if I upgrade to 9? Do I need to reinstall?

Something to consider.
Acrobat 9.2 is where Windows 7 support begins.

Importing fdf with js always get security warning

Hi, I have a form with some options (1 category as text with drop down and 5 radio button). The selection get the name of the fdf file to import. On import I get every time the security warning. I select the "Remember this action..." and I click "Allow". In the Settings/Security (Enhanced) the path and the file doesn't appear, so I set it manually, but I still get the security warning everytime. Files are stored locally in a different partion as the system. This happens on 2 machines (Mac 10.7, Mac10.8, Acrobat X, ACrobat XI, Reader XI).
this is the script
var A = "/Volumes/Data_Sharing/Projects/.../.../.../";
var B = getField("Category").valueAsString;
var C = "-okom-data.fdf";
var D = A + B + C;
var E = this.getField("Text1");
E.value = D;
this.importAnFDF(D);
The field Text1 is only a string visualisation for controlling
If I set an Import Data Event without js I don't have any security warning with fdf (but always with xfdf, xml and text files).
If you know what I miss, thanks for any suggestion

Unfortunately i dont think its possible.
You'd think a deployment could restrict warnings for a local intranet, or have an exception list.
There was another answer i did see but i would not recommend this at all. Even the person who put the post up does not recommend it.

You have two options, do not have java 1.6 on the desktop as this is the version that brings up the security warning. Or you can try the new
application with java 1.6 (As long as all functionality is tested). This will satisfy your new app, but not the applications that run of the older
java runtime environments. (we are going to test the application under 1.6 even though its not a supported certification by the vendor.)

Opening a pdf from a link in another pdf shows always security warning

Next time I open same document, i get the same Security Warning.

Why doesn't it take my command for the next time
We use Windows 7 and the newest Adobe Reader 11.0
Thanks for helpful feedback

Hi same problem here but only on Windows 7 in Acrobat Reader. Full Acrobat on Windows and Mac ok, and Reader on Mac works fine too. I've got a pdf with links to other pdfs. On windows I have to click 'Allow' each time I reopen the document. Very annoying, especially that Mac versions seems to work just fine. Tom

Security Warning on submission of PDF

I have an XDP form that acts as a user interface for a database in a Workflow Server process to gather information, and then is submitted back to Workflow Server to continue the process. It is rendered as a PDF. If the database functionality of the PDF file is used, i.e. to repopulate a list or validate entries, the following dialog box appears:
"Security Warning
This document as accessed more than one site and might be trying to share data among different locations. This could be a privacy concern. Are you sure you want to continue?"
I'm running Acrobat Pro 7 in IE6, with LiveCycle 7 products. The only thing I can say with any amount of confidence is that it's not a browser issue, as I get identical messages when viewed through either IE or FireFox. I believe it's an Acrobat issue, but I can't find anywhere in the Acrobat settings to disable it. This is a major annoyance for the users, since more and more forms are going to need this functionality as we progress, and the average user does NOT like to see a "Security Warning" every time they submit a form.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Clifton Cline

edit: The Security Warning appears when the user submits the form, not when the ADBC JavaScript is running.

How do I avoid the recipient of my Indesign PDF receiving a security warning when clicking on links?

I create PDF's out of Indesign to send to new clients. They contain links to external websites. They do not contain any javascript or videos or hidden links. If the PDF is opened in Adobe Reader, when the recipient clicks on a hyperlink in my PDF they get a security warning asking if they trust the site. How can I avoid the recipient receiving this Security Warning as it would scare people into thinking I had sent them something malicious when I haven't?

You cannot avoid it, that's part of the PDF security system to make the user aware that he is entering non-trusted area, as it is with every web page when it is opened the first time in Reader or Acrobat on this computer. ThatÄs an unchageable fact. You have to live with it.

"Security Warning" dialog box when click script set to Run at Server

I am rendering a PDF form using the renderForm component. I'm setting the Target URL. I have a script on a button set to "run at server". I can render my form in a browser and fill it out, but when I click the button I get a dialog box with a title of "Security Warning". It says "Acrobat is attempting to connect to [target URL]" with options to Allow or Block. Is this the expected behaviour for server-side execution of scripts?
I'm thinking that maybe I should just use a submit button instead. The problem with that though, is that I don't want to run the mandatory field rules and validation rules. As I understand, you can't submit a form with a submit button unless all the mandatory fields are completed.
Here's the requirement. I need to have two "submit" buttons. One checks all the mandatory field rules before submitting a "final" version of the form. The other button submits a "draft" version without the mandatory checks. I was hoping that the second button could be implemented as a normal command button with a script that executes server-side. Sure enough, it attempted to submit without checking the mandatory fields. Unfortunately I ran into other undesirable side-effects including a distressing "Security Warning" dialog box.
Ideas?

Reader security warning message on pdf page linking

Hi All
I am building, for the 5th year running, an archive of a publications years magazines in pdf format. The pages are linked so that when for example an issue magazine cover is clicked in an index page I have created, it takes the viewer to the appropriate magazine pdf, all of which are stored as seperate files.
This has worked fine up until the introduction of Adobe Reader XI. Now a security warning message popup is generated every time a link to another page is clicked.
"This document is trying to access - page.pdf - if you trust this document then choose Allow if not choose Block"
We can't have this so:
Option One: Combine all the pdfs into one file, thus avoiding the problem but making a 400Meg file which may be a little unwealdy to edit
Option Two: Certify all the pages with a third party validated digital signature.
Question does any know if the Option Two will solve the problem?
I have aqured a test certificate from GlobalSign but it is maked as a test certificate and not to be trusted (not sure what the point of it is then!) and this does not work.
We don't want to pay $400 only to find that this does not solve the problem.
Anybody?
Thanks
Keith

In Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro I use the MArquee select Link Tool. It looks like a chain on the Advanced Editing toolbar.
Then the pages are linked using Open a file , or Go to a page view.
I am beging to think that this ia a bug. Because in edit / prefferenecs / security advanced / Add folder path. When you do this for a particular folder it makes no difference, you still get the Warning message.

Security warning 'access more than one site..' - URGENT HELP

Hi All
(USING: Reader 707 + Reader extension 702 or Acrobat 707 )
I am having big trouble with this Acrobat/reader security warning:
Security Warning
'This document as accessed more than one site and might be trying to share data among different locations. This could be a privacy concern. Are you sure you want to continue?'
I know it is more an acrobat/Reader issue than designer, but hope that one outthere has ideas.
Problem:
We have 4 servers sharing the load for a webservice. I have coded webservice connection in javascript in Designer 7.1 using SOAP.
The webservice look up data, but i recieve the security warning each time I perform the look up. I have added all sites to Trust Manager, so that is not the problem!
I think the very problem is that Acrobat/Reader request to a DNS alias, but later recieve response from ONE of the specific servers!
Acrobat/Reader request webService on:
http://ck/web/services/FormularWebservice?wsdl;
Acrobat/Reader recieve answer from (for example: da1650 - one of the 4 servers)
http://da1650:9081/web/services/FormularWebservice?wsdl;
So Acrobat/Reader shows the security warning because it suddenly recieve a response from a server that is does not know it has requested against - This is what I think happens!
Have anyone experinced a similiar situation? any ideas? All comments/ideas/solutions are appreciated. As the warning is very anoying to the user I cannot launch my LC forms so I need a solution...

just a note:
WebService URLs are only internal, so cannot be reached!

How do I turn off Security Warning?

I have a fillable pdf form that I created with Acrobat 9 and distribute via my website. The form has ‘more info’ links that point to informative html pages on my website. The problem is that clicking the ‘more info’ links pop up a Security Warning on the user's computer.
How do I turn off the Security Warning? My website IS safe! Do I need a security clearance from Adobe to turn off the Security Warning?

Nope. That's all on the users end and beyond your control.
They can allow it once and have it remember from there on out or they can add you to their trusted sites.
If you could bypass it on your end, there wouldn't be any reason to have that feature.

How to disable security warning while printing(Silent Print) from Javascript?

We have a webapplication through which, we are creating a pdf document and trying to print it sliently ("Silent Print").
Users who are having latest Adobe version, were getting javascript warning message. However, those with older versions able to "Silent Print", without any warning messages.
How to disable this security warning while printing from Javascript?
Warning message: "A script has requested to print an Acrobat file. This could print an entire document. Do you want to proceed printing?".
Appreciate for your kind help.
Thanks.

It's a security warning so it can't be bypassed by anything within the file.

How to disable IE Security Warning on opening a "local" visio file with Visio Viewer ActiveX?

Hello all,
Everyone knows that Microsoft released ActiveX based Visio Viewer for free and allow the users to open Visio drawing and view/print via IE browser.
The problem that I am facing is that some users are complaining about IE browser's security warning on "active content to run in files on My Computer".
It means that opening .VSD files from the network, internet, intranet would be all OK but if the user wants to open .VSD files from the local hard drive (or open it as a mail attachment, which will extract it to a temp folder), it prompt the user to select "Allow Blocked Content" EVERYTIME they open them.
I know that I can GLOBALLY disable this warning by going through Tools - Internet Options - Security section and enable "Allow active content to run in files on My Computer" but I hope that there is a way (or workaround) to allow them by file type or location, etc.
Questions:
1. Is there any way to disable those warning for all .VSD only while we still UNCHECK the option on Internet Options?
2. Is there any 3rd party Win32 based viewer which wouldn't have those restriction?
3. Is it safe assumption that McAfee VirusScan and Host IPS protection is sufficient enough to remove the IE's security warning feature?
Thanks in advance?
Young-

Are you able to host/launch the VSD file via an HTM page? In that case you can format the HTM page as shown below. This will trick IE into thinking it is loading the file off of a website. Commonly called 'mark of the web'.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

Removing the "Security Warning" dialogue box on default when a PDF is opened

Hey
I have created a pdf document with a specific data written using iText Libraries. I have actually created a beacon that generates a notification sent to the owner's email when the pdf is opened.
The code is under OpenAction. The problem I am facing is that as I open the document, a dialogue box is opened saying "Security Warning" The document is trying to connect to : URL. How do I get rid of this dialogue box. ? I don't want this dialogue box to appear and allow the connection by default. I have tried playing with the Trust Manager - but that doesn't seem to be the solution, as am trying to execute my PDF document at a remote machine.

There was a lot of media fuss years back when it was found out that PDF files could "phone home", i.e. do what you want to do. So Adobe put this warning in. It wouldn't be much good as a warning if the creator of a PDF could choose to turn it off!
Document creators like to track people opening documents. Privacy advocates consider this a breach of privacy. The latter group shouts louder. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoning_home

How to stop HTTP Security warning message in transactional iview

When I am trying to access ECC through transactional iview then I am getting HTTP security warning message i.e. This page contains both secure and nonsecure items. Do you want to display the nonsecure items?
I think it is because portal is accessable using HTTPS protocol and when we access ECC then it uses HTTP Protocol.
Pl help to resolve.

Hi AshuGrover_in,
First, welcome on SDN!
> I think it is because portal is accessable using HTTPS protocol and when we access ECC then it uses HTTP Protocol.
> Pl help to resolve.
This might very well be the root cause of the issue, and if it is, you know the resolution - make all systems accessible via https.
Anyhow, to examine the exact cause creating this message you could use tools like HttpWatch or something similar and record the client accesses to the server. If you originally have a GET to a https address, the first http request caused by the original request will throw this message.
Theoretically, on client side, you can switch off this message: Search for "switch off http https warning" on google and you will get all possible instructions for the different clients. Anyhow, a clean landscape design with complete https connections is the aim you should have.
Hope it helps

Desktop and startup shortcuts produce security warning

I have a laptop running Windows 8.1 Pro with all updates installed. It's a domain member and the primary user was using redirected folders which worked well. Due to other reasons, the user's account was removed from the OU linked to with the redirected folders
GPO. open file security warning The GPO was setup for Desktop and My Documents so that when the policy was removed the files would revert to the local PC. For some odd reason the Favorites was not that way but configured to leave them on the server. I discovered
that only after the user's account had been moved out of that OU and the laptop rebooted and the user logged in.
So the user got her desktop and documents folders back just fine. But even though I changed the GPO to revert the Favorites back to the local PC of course it didn't even after I rebooted a few more times. So when the Favorites icon in IE was clicked,
favo0rites were still pointing to the server. I had to go through the registry and change the entries for that user's profile to point to the proper folder on the local PC.
However after I did that then something else showed up. Now when she clicks on the IE shortcut which is pinned to the taskbar or any application shortcut on the desktop or when she logs in and the startup program run, they all produce the Open File - Security
Warning box so she has to click OK for each one. I've tried looking up this problem but none of the fixes work for this case or I'm not going to lower the IE security.
Oddly, the Microsoft Office shortcuts pinned on the taskbar don't produce the security window but open up the program. It only seems to happen with shortcuts to programs that I create. Also I can take those shortcuts, copy them to another folder outside
of the user's profile and there is no security warning. So it's only within the profile that this happens.
Anyone have an idea what is wrong and how to fix it? I don't see how my changing the path to the Favorites folder in a few places in the registry could have done this but I don't see what else since it didn't occur until after I made the registry changes.
Jonathan

Why not use RegShot to capture registry changes after favorites folder was modified.

How do I get rid of the security warning for disc based Flash product

I have a project that use a program called Articulate to turn
powerpoint shows into a more rich flash product with audio, search
capacities, quiz etc. There are multiple sections from multiple
powerpoint files that generate a dozen or so flash files. The flash
files reside in an html shell to allow for navigation. The whole
thing is delivered on disc as a browser based training product.
The problem is that viewing flash from a disc results in a
security alert every time the viewer goes to a flash file. There is
an Articulate theme blog that suggests using a product called
server2go to make the disc function as a server to kinda fool
browsers on the local machine into thinking the disc is a web
server. My client wants the product to allow the users' default
browser. So far, although server2go is supposed to allow this, it
doesn't with the latest version of firefox (client's preferred
browser). I can only get it to work on a select machine or 2 in my
office with IE (server2go default) but it takes forever to launch.
I haven't gotten it to work on any of the client's machines. The
disc (auto launch) just freezes the machines.
Can anyone recommend a better server emulation product, or
tell me another solution to delivering a disc based flash product
without getting the security warning and without making the viewer
change settings on their machine to allow flash to play?
I understand security issues but this makes flash virtually
unusable for this application and I'm dead in the water if I can't
fix it.
