Auto-filling every box in tiger

Help!
I just turned on my ibook this morning and it was auto-filling the login password box and will not allow me to type anything in on my own. I tried to put the tiger install disc in but will not allow me to enter my password to install on my own so I am out of ideas. I am on a PC right now Can someone please help me figure this problem out? thanks!

Each area where you can enter data into a PDF form in the normal view or non-Form Editing view is a field object. Each one of these fields has a name to identify that area or object form other form fields. If the names are the same the fields then those specific fields share many of the same values, the most important is the value of the field.
This is an issue that needs to be addressed by the form's creator.

Auto-fill text box field values based on pulldown selection

Trying to fill in address, city, state, zip text fields based on option selected in a select form field. The following code works great in Internet Explorer, but in Chrome or Firefox, after making selection, text fields are populated with the word "undefined."
I've found a PHP version of Jquery script here that would probabably fit the bill.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3657127/jquery-populate-text-input-from-table-based-on- select-value
Maybe someone has a CF version they could share?
Thanks in advance to any who can point me to a solution for this code, or a better way to accomplish my need.

<script type="text/javascript">
      function selectAddress(list) {
            // assume first item is empty
            if (list.selectedIndex > 0) {
                  var locationID = list.options[list.selectedIndex].value;
                  var locationAddress = list.options[list.selectedIndex].locationAddress;

Thanks a million for the help Steve, the array is being created in source as follows:
<script type="text/javascript">
var addresses = [
   "locationName": "Airport Park School",
   "locationAddress": "",
   "locationCity": "",
   "locationState": "WI",
   "locationZip": ""
   "locationName": "American Legion Golf Course",
   "locationAddress": "1001 Golf Club Road",
   "locationCity": "Wausau",
   "locationState": "WI",
   "locationZip": "54403"
but I'm lost at the
// reference as address[index].locationName...address[index].locationZip where index = 0-[arraysize-1]
direction, and just to double check, you named the Javascript var "addresses", so the "reference as address" s/b "reference as addresses" right?
I've tried many iterations of "onchange" adding other variables (locationCity, locationZip, etc.) but coming up empty.
Anyway, I wish I could buy you a beer or two for the help . . .
Here's where I'm at, which ain't working. If you have a minute to look over, it would be MUCH appreciated. Try not to laugh at my (what's probably ugly) Javascript code:

<script type="text/javascript">
var addresses = [
<cfset variables.fs = "" />
<cfoutput query="allLocations">
#variables.fs#{
   "locationName": "#jsStringFormat(locationName)#",
   "locationAddress": "#jsStringFormat(locationAddress)#",
   "locationCity": "#jsStringFormat(locationCity)#",
   "locationState": "#jsStringFormat(locationState)#",
   "locationZip": "#jsStringFormat(locationZip)#"
<cfset variables.fs = "," />
</cfoutput>
// reference as address[index].locationName...address[index].locationZip where index = 0-[arraysize-1]
</script>
<tr>
<td align="right" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" valign="top">Name of Destination</td>
<td align="left" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" valign="top">
<select name="locationID" class="smallforms"
onChange="var locationAddress = addresses[list.selectedIndex].locationAddress;">
             <option value="">SELECT DESTINATION ››››››››››</option>
             <cfoutput query="allLocations">
                   <option value="#locationName#">#locationName#</option>
             </cfoutput>
      </select>
Other: <cfinput name="destinationNameOther" type="text" class="smallforms" size="75">
<br />
<cfoutput>
   <input id="locationID" name="locationID" type="hidden"><br>
   Address: <cfinput class="smallforms" id="locationAddress" name="locationAddress" type="text" size="30">

Writing an Auto-Fill Script

I am trying to write a script that auto-fills three boxes based on a choice from a drop-down menu.
The drop-downs are called "LocationA", "LocationB", and "LocationC" and the boxes are called Breakfast, Breakfast 2, Breakfast 3, and so on with Lunch and Dinner. There are several options, like, if LocationA is $42/Day, then Breakfast is $10, Lunch is $12, and Dinner is $20. If LocationA is $56/Day, then Breakfast is $11, Lunch is $15, and Dinner is $30, and so on.
How do I write the script? I found an example but it doesn't work when I sub in my information.

Well, this is what I was able to find online:
I'm positive the bolded areas are wrong. The version I was able to find didn't explain where those values came from, so this was our best guess. The code is supposed to auto-fill LocationA (Location 1) but also leave availability to fill Location 2 and Location 3.

Need Help: I need a check box to auto fill a set value in separate text field.

Hi, this is my first time with inserting scripts into a PDF Form.
We have a form that requires the user to check a box regarding medical conditions they have (i.e. Asthma, Diabetes, Hypertension). Later in the form, they have to type out the same condition into a text box. (I know stupid to double document, but it is required). Is there a script that will auto fill the text box when they check the box? For example, if they check asthma, the text box on a later page in the PDF will say "Asthma, controlled." Is this possible?
In addition, if they don't click Asthma, and do click Diabetes, could it add Diabetes to the first text box, but if they check both, it would add Asthma to box 1 and Diabetes to box 2?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
I'm using Acrobat 9
Thanks!

Hi, I'm staring at the code trying to make it work for my needs, which are similar to Austin's.
I have a 16-page form with 2,988 checkboxes in the entire document (a little over 200 in each page besides the first and last page). The last page contains a textbox labled Summary, and it should provide a summary of all the items checked in the document. Theoretically only one page will be populated at a time, so there will be no more than 200 checkboxes checked in the entire document.
Is it possible to use the same code? And do I just put the code under the text in the script that reads:
form1.SummaryPage.SummaryText::calculate - (JavaScript, client)
The JS I am trying to get to work is the following from a post above.
// Custom Calculate script
(function () {
    var i, v, s = "";
    // Loop through the 2988 check boxes
    for (i = 1; i < 2989; i += 1) {
        // Get the value of the current checkbox
        v = getField("checkbox " + i).valueAsString;
        // Concatenate check box value to string if not deselected
        if (v !== "Off") s+= v + "\r";
    // Set this field value
    event.value = s;

How to auto-fill cell without incrementing it's number (a PO Box)

I sometimes need to auto fill rows of a person's identifying information which might contain a PO Box number. The PO Box number gets incremented when I copy a single line. Two lines of the same info produce a third with the correct result but if one line is auto filled (with yellow handle) the resulting cell has a box number that is 1 greater than the one above. How can I turn off the incrementing feature? I can copy and paste but would prefer to use auto fill as necessary.

Hi Charles,
Thanks for suggestion. I noticed that that problem seems confined to cell with mixed content (text & number- PO Box) but not to number-as-text (zip code). Seems like a coding oversight. I sent a note to Apple. Unlikey that I am only one with problem.
Happy Thanksgiving.

Auto fill is no longer available. Now I have to type a website to visit it instead of clicking in the searh box.

I now get "auto fill is not available for this page" consistently. I am no longer able to click on a previous search entry and go to that site.

Do you have the Google Toolbar installed?

Yahoo mail address auto-fill lists everyone ever included in every e-mail I've ever sent/received

At least that's what it seems like....
FF (29.0.1)
Re Yahoo mail: When entering a recipient for an e-mail the auto-fill drop down shows possible matches well in excess of my contacts. It includes anyone that I have ever sent/rec'd and all the addresses that were also cc'd in those e-mails.
From what I have read on Yahoo boards the suggestions are generated from the browser's stored data (ie. it's a browser problem not a Yahoo Mail problem). I have FF options set to delete all history (browse/download/cache/forms/search/cookies/logins/pwds/offlinedata) each time FF closes.
I am able to delete unwanted suggestions one at a time but as a practical approach that is beyond ridiculous.
Does FF keep a master list of part addresses? If so, how do I delete all except my current contacts?
THANKS!

Firefox doesn't store email addresses except as form data; data that you typed previously into Firefox.
See if clearing form history solves that problem: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/control-firefox-automatically-fills-in-forms?esab=a&s=clear+form+data&r=5&as=s#w_clearing-form-history Clearing form history]

I dont want in some sites auto fill the password but rather i want if i put atleast three correct entry then the password box be auto filled...plz reply asap...

dont auto fill d password in some sites but auto fill after atleast three correct entry..as gmail other member r also used this...

You can disable auto-fill (I'm using this as well), but you can't delay this by having to enter the same name more than once.
You can set the Boolean pref <b>signon.autofillForms</b> to <i>false</i> on the <b>about:config</b> page.
*You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location bar and accept the warning

How to Transfer Safari Auto-Fill Passwords to Chrome

How do you transfer all of your saved auto-fill passwords from Safari into Chrome?
It won't let me do it in Preferences/Personal Stuff/Browsing Data
The box "saved passwords" is grayed out and it won't let me select it!
Thanks in advance for any help!
HARDWARE/SOFTWARE I AM RUNNING:
2.66 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
OS 10.6.7

The box "saved passwords" is grayed out and it won't let me select it!
Are you referring to: Manage Saved Passwords ??
Your passwords are stored in Keychain Access /Applications/Utilities
Select Options (Preferences on Mac and Linux; Settings on Chrome OS).
Click the Personal Stuff tab.
Adjust your password settings in the "Passwords" section:
Select "Offer to save passwords" if you want Google Chrome to prompt you to save your password every time you sign in to a new website.
Otherwise, select "Never save passwords" if you don't want Google Chrome to ever save your passwords.

Problem with form autofilling every box in column underneath it when I type in one box.

Hello everyone,
I am doing an assignment for a summer class online. This summer class requires us to use Adobe Reader to fill out some questions that involve tables and typing. One of the tables is structured in such a way that we must fill in each row with pertinent information relating to the case that we negotiated. The problem is, whenever I fill in a box in a certain row, it will fill in every single box in that same column with the information that I had typed in only one box. Can anyone help me figure out the problem here?

If I had to guess I would say that the person that created the fields made the first one then copy/pased the addtional fields and did not change the field names. All fields with the same names will auto-fill.

My auto-fill for forms is dead

Select your card in Contacts. Then select
Card ▹ Make This My Card
from the menu bar. Also select
Contacts ▹ Preferences ▹ vCard
and uncheck the box marked
Enable private me card
if it's checked.
In Safari, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ AutoFill ▹ AutoFill web forms: Using info from my Contacts card.
If you get unclickable autofill choices in Safari, select from the menu bar
Edit ▹ AutoFill Form

Auto Fill does not work

I have a new iMac with Lion OSX. In Safari, I checked the box for auto fill to populate my demographic info in websites from Address Book. It does not work. Any suggestions?

I am still using Snow Leopard on my iMac. I've done all that with the address book and Safari autofill preferences. I've had it that way for years, but in recent times, it seems to be completely useless, as every time I try to autofill a web form, all I get is this error dialog:
"AutoFill completes webpage forms using information from your Address Book card or from web forms you completed previously. The information required by this form does not match any of the information available to AutoFill"
Luckily, I use 1Password3 and don't have to rely on the random usability of the Safari autofill feature, but it would be good to know just what happened to make it so useless.

Turning Off Address Bar Auto-Fill

I do not want the address bar to auto fill. How do I turn it off.

Tom .. No, I was just using google. Not http etc.
I really think that was enough last week. We messed with some of
the network settings lately in an attempt to set up ethernet connection
to old machine. I bet that is what changed things.
Yang .. I did what you said. No Joy! Thanks anyway.
How does this work for other tiger users?
Maybe I'm wrong about it working last week?
Typing .com every time isn't the end of the world. But
it would be nice if the Imac would do it.
Later....Johnny

Turning off contact address auto-fill

Anyone know how to turn off the auto-fill for calendar entries? Entering customer appointments into iCal for contacts in my address book takes forever when it has to predict who it might be. Plus, if I select that particular contact, it won't show the address, only show "Tom's work" as the location.
Thanx!

Is there a way to create auto fill fields in an excel spreadsheet from AB?

Hey, so I've got an Excel spreadsheet that I'd like to tweak so when I enter a name, the boxes next to it labeled Phone Number and Email will auto fill the information in from Address Book. I don't know if this is possible in Excel, I have a Address Label Widget that does it though.

Being Applescriptable, you should be able to do that in Excel. MacTech magazine has a long article on applescripting Office. You might ask around in the Applescript forums or take a look at Macscripter.net.
