Acrobat XI, hyphens and password issue

Hi all,
We've recently moved all our macs to Acrobat XI and other CC products.
We've got a *big* issue with Acrobat Pro XI. Several of PDF's made with earlier versions of Acrobat were protected by passwords. And sometimes, due to our naming regulations, the password contains Hyphens. We can still opens our PDF's with Preview ou any web browser with PDF reading capabilities, but, since we use a lot of Acrobat features, it's not a viable option.
So I came here for adivces our maybe a workaround for this painfull issue.
Regards,
PS: Sorry for my language, as a french speaking ppl, i'm doing my best.

Sadly the PDF's are encrypted when they are created hence the issue…
For the moment the workaround is a pain in the a**, opening the documents with "Preview.app" export the document without any password, re-open it with Acrobat, and put a new password without hyphens…
Well Devs could have easily issued that bug by asking the user which version of Unicode he wants to use…

FTP Usernames and Password issues in DW 8 for Macintosh

Hi,
I have an issues in DW8 on Mac OS 10.4.9. Every so often, my
FTP usernames and passwords in the Dreamweaver site definitions
will swap. That means that the username from one site will now be
in the site def for another site. Nothing else ever swaps, e.g.,
the local paths, passwords, and other settings are fine. It is just
the usernames that seem to move from site to site at random. If I
have a test server set up for a site, it also happens there. I've
looked everywhere and can't find anybody else who has had this
problem. I know there is a similar issue on Windows with IE7, but
haven't seen anything on the Mac. This happens on both my G5 tower
and iBook. If anyone has any thoughts or suggestions, I would
appreciate it. It's not too big of an inconvenience, but it is
annoying. Thanks in advance!
Brian

Although it may not be the solution, have you installed the
8.0.2 updater?

Username and password issue in SAP GUI logon-Please help

Hello,
Usually I download the tx.sap file from my work system it downloads and opens the main screen directly.( password is disabled for us). Now when I connect from home(home system through VPN) ,i can download tx.sap file from my company's SAP web portal ,but when I open the same through SAP GUI on my system it pops up a password screen- the issue is my employee ID is already populated in the username tab, but when I provide my domain password (i tried all my passwords),it throws an error -you do not require a password, now when i try without a password it shows fill in all required entry fields. Please assist.

If you enter just the username, the network is not sure which "AD Domain" to contact tp authenticate you as a user. So you need to specify the domain name in any of the below 2 formats. Give it a try.
Format 1 - [email protected]
Format 2 - DOMAIN\UserName
Hope this helps.

Slow startup and password issue.

Hi all...
Happy new year...!
As a little christmas present for myself I purchased a Crucial M4 256GB SSD for my MacPro 4,1 (2.26GHz, 22GB RAM, 10.8.2). I'm a semi-pro photographer and wanted a bit of a speed up for my processing etc etc. So yesterday I cloned my existing system drive to the SSD with Carbon Copy Cloner. I then installed the SSD in the spare superdrive bay (my other 4 bays are used).
Just as a background my previous startup/shutdown times on this machine where quite slow averaging around 90s for startup and around 45s for shutdown. I had assumed that this was normal and was just a slow syetm HD issue. When I changed the startup disk to the new SSD and booted up the startup time did decrease but not significantly... its now exactly 59s whilst the shutdown times go down to around 30s. In use the speed of the OS is massively improved with applications and local file copying blazingly fast. I've a few friends who upgraded MacBook Pro's and others macs with SSD's and their startups are around 10-15 seconds....!!! I'm not overly bothered by the slow startups/shutdowns but I am curious as to what might be causing these delays. In testing today I deleted everything unecessary from my user account startup items, disabled various apps and checked the /library/startupitems for anything that shoudnt be there. After a couple of hours trying I cant find anything that is effecting the startups and am lost. I'll likely just accept it and move on as in use the SSD is impressive but if anyone has any ideas it'd be appreciated!
A second thing that has happened is that whenever I try to delete/modify/move an app I am now asked to type in my user password. I have tried repairing permissions, checking the permissions of my .Trash folder etc etc but as of yet nothing has worked. Any ideas...??
Many thanks and Happy New Year yet again.

The traditional way an Operating System deals with "deleted" files is to remove ONLY the Directory information and simply add the data blocks to the free pool. Those "deleted" data blocks are not cleared.
This works in rotating drives because:
1. The logical block size is the same or larger than the physical drive block size.
2. Rotating magnetic media are block-for-block re-writable.
In SSDs physical blocks are much larger "superblocks", and re-writing a portion of a superblock is a slow and difficult read-modify-write operation. In addition, since the OS did not notify the drive what data are no longer needed, deleted data continue to be carefully maintained and re-written by the drive. Soon every write operation becomes a read-modify-write, and performance deteriorates.
In my opinion, this nearly-full condition is likley to cause drive failure. Something more than wishful thinking is required.
Apple enables TRIM on the drives they install directly. They do not do so for third-party drives, but that is likely because those drives have not been tested by Apple.
I have been using a very small SSD as a boot drive for a while, and periodically consolidate free space followed immediately by erasing free space with a third-party utility. I believe this has kept me out of trouble. My son has been using SSD in his laptop and doing nothing for maintenece, and he has killed two drives in a year.
Trim Enabler utility from groths seems to be working, and makes things simple. Your mileage may vary.
if I notice significant performance slips
You added a much lower latency drive and startup times did not improve significantly. Much of the time required for startup is needed for memory testing. The rest is largely attributable to disk Read/Write times. What more evidence do you need?

Adobe Acrobat Pro X and Mac issues

I am running Adobe Acrobat X Pro on Lion and when I go to scan from PDF, my HP Deskjet 3052 A scanner isn't showing up in the drop down menu. I also have Acrobat Pro X for Windows on my machine (VMWare) and it works fine, but it won't work with the Mac version. I have called Adobe and HP and neither have been able to help me. I bought this program with this feature in mind, and I am sick of having to toggle back to Windows to scan, as it eats up a lot of my processing power. I have downloaded the SANE and TWAIN drivers (or so I thought I did) with no luck.
Thanks for your help!

Acrobat Standard X and Printing Issues

I recently installed X on my system. I was super excited until I hit the print button. I made absolutely no changes to the print settings, yet my pdf has been shrunk to fit on half a page as well as rotated. In addition, one pdf page now prints two sheets of paper. One as described before, the other blank.
Here are my current settings
-windows 7 (64 bit)
-xerox phaser 6360 dn ps
-acrobat x
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling numerous times, adobe and the printer. As well as rolling back versions. No luck.
Any ideas, thanks.

Hi Guys,
Had the same problem at a client site and it was driving me crazy. Turns out that its a very simple fix. Under Preferences in the General tab, take a tick out of Enable Protected Mode at startup.
Once I did that on all client computers they printed fine to all printers.
Hope that helps some people.
Cheers

Acrobat 9 Plugin and Orbix2000 issues

I build a plugin using Acrobat 9 SDK. The plugin starts a CORBA (Orbix2000) instance and a call back function in CORBA. The same plugin works fine with Acrobat 8. In Acrobat 9.x (9.1 and 9.2), after the call back function in CORBA, most of the Acrobat API's are not accessable; usually I got "unhandled exceptions". All the Acrobat menu items are fine even my plugin menu items. e.g. (one example on AVAlert()):
void myCallback()
     // do the CORBA thing
void myTest()
    myCallback();
     // This is SDK Sample code
    ASAtom Name = ASExtensionGetRegisterName(gExtensionID); //ok
    const char * name = ASAtomgetString(Name); // ok get my plugin name
     AVDoc avDoc = AVAppGetActiveDoc(); // ok
    if ( avDoc != null )
          char     str[256];
          PDDoc pdDoc = AvDocGetPDDoc(avDoc); //ok
          int numOfPages = PDDocGetNumPages(pdDoc); // ok
          sprintf(str, "Number of pages = %d", numOfPages);
          // I added the follwing
          AVSysBeep(2) // ok
          AVAlert(str);     // crash here in Acrobat 9.x but not in Acrobat 8.x
It looks like in Acrobat 9.x, the AVAlert's resource handle is gone or there is no AVAlert at the location that suppose to be.
Again, the same routine works in Acrobat 8.x.
Any suggestion from anyone or from Adobe's folks?

Post your problem in the forum for Acrobat SDK.

Username and password issues in icloud

i have a ipod touch 5th generation. i am trying to change the icloud over to my new email account. my previous account was hacked and can't access it or any of the information associated with it as it seems much of the information has been changed

You have to delete the iCloud account, provide the password for the iCloud ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.

Disabled ipad and password issues after ios7 upgrade

I upgraded my iPad mini and all seemed well so I upgraded my iPhone 4s and my iTouch 5.
It asked me for a Passpwrd to restore and I never used a password for my backups or on my iPhone. I tried 0000 and 1234 as well as every PW combo I ever used--nada. I finally had to set the phone up as a new device.
Later I tried to access my iPad Mini and when I put in the PW I just set, it refused it and finally disabled the iPad. I had to go into restore and when I did the backup file would not accept my PW.
This is a nightmare. I lost valuable info not to mention the amount of time to rearrange my iPhone and iPad. I habe my backup but cannot access it because it will not accpet the PW
The really stupid thing is that trying too many PWs disabled the iPad and I suppose that is to make it a brick if you steal it but I was able to force a restore by shutting down and holding down the home button when I plugged it in so if I had stolen it it would not make any sense at all

I was experiencing the same thing. This article worked for me, hopefully it will help you.
http://ipad.about.com/od/iPad_Troubleshooting/ss/What-To-Do-When-Your-Ipad-Wo-No t-Turn-On.htm
Hold both the home button and the wake/suspend button down at the same time. You should see the Apple logo appear on your screen after holding these buttons down a couple of seconds, which means your iPad is booting up and should be good to go in a few more seconds.

Upgraded to yosemite and now having password issues and slow start up

I have upgraded my macbook pro to the OS X Yosemite operating system and now encountering start up and password issues.
Previously on start up my system would go to the log on icon within 10 to 15 seconds of pushing the on button. Now there is horizontal loading indicator bar appearing and takes about 30seconds to 1 minute to go away before getting to the log on screen and if I click on my icon the system goes live on screen without having to put in a password which is an obvious security issue.
I have tried adding a password however each time I try to put my old password in it tells me it is the wrong one.
I am operating Yosemite 10.10.2 on a macbook pro with 8gb memory with i7 processor..
The computer was running perfectly ok before this up grade so I had resisted previous prompts to upgrade due to the bad press this system was getting last year. I thought Apple would have had this all sorted by now??
I would appreciate any help if anyone knows how to resolve these issues.

How do I find out what my username and password is for my wireless network

My printer works through the wireless network, but my scanner doesn't recognize my computer. I'm thinking I have a username/password issues.

I don't think that its user name and password issue .
As you Printer is working fine with your wireless network that means the router is communicating with the Printer .
For the Scanner check the settings on your printer itself for the Scanner function .

Is the email password issue related to my canceled trial .mac account?

Guys,
I thought this might be something. My trial .mac account expired and I have been getting password issues ever since. I thought having a mac email account was indefinite, however after speaking with CS, they said an expired .mac account and password issues were correlated.
So, for those with ongoing password issues, am I assuming these people who are having password issues have an *active* .mac account? Apologies for the newb/green question.
P.S. I am able to retrieve gmail on my account.
Message was edited by: jkim2001

If you've got your .Mac account set up in Mail and the account has expired, that'd be why you're getting password prompts. .Mac email accounts expire with the account--they're not free. Remove the .Mac account from Mail (or pay for it) and the problem should go away.

I have tried EVERYTHING (well, nt everything, I don’t have the fix I suppose).
I found plenty out there and nothing directly correlates with this issue.
I searched on all parts of the errors I got.
This contains an interesting blurb about setting up access for the apppool id correctly.
That’s not the case for me. It works in dev and the same id are used there.

Hi.
You say its a multiserver farm, do you have more than one web server then?
If thats the case, have you tried accessing the site on each server directly?
