Can I create a new document with a locked PDF file, add new pages, and lock it all again?

I published a PDF document ten years ago and now want to add Creative Commons licensing language to the copyright page.  But I forgot the password!  I gather from the Forum that there is no way to recover the password.  However, I wonder if I can take the locked PDF file, create a new document (adding a new page for the licensing information), then lock the whole thing up again.  Will this work?  Thanks for your help!                                                                               

To create an unprotected file you would need the password.

  • Can you create a new folder and put several documents in it in Adobe?

    Can you create a new folder and put several documents in it in Adobe?

    Thank you for your help. Now I just want to expand on this a bit. To use the Applescript you have supplied me, how do I tell it to name the folder other than by date, and where to put it?
    Let me say, preferably, is it possible to make an action like this right-clickable? Instead of having to pick a script. Anything that slows this process down means I might as well do it all by hand. What I'd really love to do is this:
    Select a number of items. Right click to an action saying "create a new folder and put this items in it. Name the folder with the first item's name". Very simple and quick.
    Could this be accomplished? Through Automator? or something that can appear in the contextual menu? Folder actions?
    I'm just getting started with using these tools.

  • Can I create a new account and keep all of my purchases and downloads?

    Can I create a new account and keep all of my old content? Recently got divorced and share the itunes account with my ex. I want a new account but do not want to lose all of my old content. Is this possible?

    Kmiller, 
    Get a copy of the entire iTunes library and copy it to the computer that you will be using from now on.
    iTunes Plus songs will still be playable, as will any "normal" MP3s that were purchased from Amazon or ripped from CD. 
    Any "protected" content from the iTunes Store, such as movies, shows, or pre-2009 songs, will not be playable.  If you need to replace any such items with playable copies, a cost will be incurred.  Make sure to account for this in the property settlement.

  • How can I create a new page in pages, without creating a new section?

    how can I create a new page in pages, without creating a new section?

    Good morning graywright,
    It sounds as if what you are wanting to do in the Pages application is to insert a Page Break. Follow the steps in this article -
    Pages '09: Inserting a Page Break
    In a word processing document, click where you want the break to occur, and then choose Insert > Page Break. 
    To remove a page break, click at the beginning of the line that follows the break and press the Delete key.
    In a page layout document, to insert a new page in your document, click Pages in the toolbar and choose from the template page options available.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • How can I create a new name and itunes acct

    I want to give my old 2nd generation ipod nano to my son.  Can I create a new device name and itunes for the ipod?

    Yes.  I would suggest creating a separate user account for him on your PC to use to store his own separate iTunes library.  See Method 1 from this Apple support document for more information and assistance.
    How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer
    When he connects the iPod to this new iTunes library he'll need to Erase and Sync (or restore) the iPod allowing him to set it up as his own iPod and everything just as if you had just taken it out of the box.

  • How can I create a "master" document with multiple variations?

    I designed a map that will be posted at a few dozen junctions with a "you are here" symbol.  Every one will be identical with the exception of this symbol.  I don't know if there is any way to do this while preserving a "master" map that can be edited all at once.  For example, I may need to change the location of the paths and it would be a real time saver if I didn't have to edit 20+ files (each with an arrow in a different spot but otherwise the same) separately.  Also, I will be sending the file over email to a professional printer, so I am very uncertain about what would be a standard way to format something like this and really wouldn't want to clog their email.
    I haven't been able to figure out an easy way to do this.  I'm wondering if it involves using multiple artboards, a feature that I'm not very familiar with, or if the easiest way is to have a layer for each symbol location and just save twenty files (whew) and send them to the printer as separate documents - which seems super clumsy.
    I have tried copying the artboard multiple times.  This was my best attempt at editing all at once: I created whatever I needed on one artboard, then dragged it to the symbols panel, then cut, then went to edit > paste on all artboards.  However, this doesn't allow me to simply fiddle with a path or object that already exists and I can't figure out how I would delete the same object from all artboards.
    If anyone has some thoughts, I'm pretty novice, so please keep it in simple terms. Also, I am in a bit of a time crunch, so speedy answers are much appreciated!  Thank you!

    Alright, that makes sense.  And yep...I've never worked with a professional printer so I wasn't sure if it is standard to have something that will require that much involvement in the set-up on their part, but I guess it's preferable to sending a bunch of separate documents.  Thanks so much for your help, Larry!

  • Can I create a new account and transfer purchases?

    I originally set up a family account, but since my sister got an iPod she has been spamming the account with pop songs and apps. Is there any way that I can transfer the £30 odd purchases made with gift cards that were given to me to a new account exclusively for me, and re register my iPad iPod and iPhone to this account without disrupting any of the data on them, and then change the registered account on my computer to the new one? Thanks for your help

    Can I create a new account
    Yes.
    and transfer purchases?
    No.  Items purchased from the iTunes Store are permanently associated with the account from which they were originally purchased.

  • I was upgrading to iOS5, backed up files on my iphone4, when relaunching the iPhone, I decided to create a new profile (and then copy all contacts from the old profile). The old profile then got erased, together with all contacts. No old profile in iTunes

    I was upgrading my iPhone 4 to iOS 5. The old files in my profile backed up. When relaunching the iPhone, I decided to create new profile on the iPhone, thinking I could copy my old contacts from the old profile (as iCloud seems to merge all contacts). When the ne profile was created on the iPhone, the old profile on iTunes disappared without a trace.  Please help restore my contacts.

    Did you use the Profile Manager or did you use reset to create that new profile?
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems
    A reset tries to import some data from the old profile and then moves the profile to the desktop, but if you use the Profile Manager then you need to copy that data yourself to the new profile.
    If you've deleted the old profile before making sure that your data has been recovered then you've lost that personal data.

  • What's the easiest way to create a new VLAN and then move all existing devices to it?

    One of our locations was implemented using VLAN1 as the main (native) VLAN. My goal is to create a new sub-interface on the router and then move all the existing switches (all Layer 2) into the new VLAN, without disrupting the network (and remotely). I am trying to determine the best way to proceed. Thanks.

    I wanted to shed a little more light on the situation. The "new" VLAN has actually been in existence since the network was initially setup. The network runs VTP and the new VLAN already has an interface on the router and already shows up on all the switches when you do a "sh vlan" command. We have about 10 VLANs in all. In reality, I am simply trying to migrate about 8 switches from VLAN1 (which they never should have been on) to the new VLAN. I know that I need to create an interface for the new VLAN on each of the switches and then swap the management IP to that interface. If I could connectly directly into each switch via the console port, this would be a simple task. However, the switches are in extremely remote locations with special circumstances, thus I have no physical access to them. This fact has me a little reluctant to making the changes, as we can't afford any mistakes that would potentially cause network downtime. I am looking for some guidance on exactly the steps to take to achieve my goal. Let's call the new vlan, VLAN2. During testing, I logged into a local switch that was on VLAN1 (that's where it had it's management address). It did have VLAN2-VLAN10 as well, via VTP. I created an interface for VLAN3 on the switch and then accessed it via VLAN3 to swap the main management interface from VLAN1 to VLAN2. The changes took, but I couldn't access it via VLAN2. I am assuming this is because the router still has VLAN1 listed as the native vlan and the VLAN2 IP address is still assigned to VLAN1 on the router. What would be the best way for me to make the required changes on the 8 switches that need swapped, without losing remote access? It wouldn't hurt if the network went down for 5 minutes or less, but we can't have a big outage. Thanks.

  • Creating a new page and new layout in a Parent/Child report.

    Hi,
    Currently I have a Parent/Child Report in Oracle Reports 6i. The report shows Contracts as the parent and the detail of the contracts are the Ads. Sometimes there are many ads which extend the contract to another page. Just a normal Parent/Child report. This report can display many contracts at once. My problem is that at the end of each contract I need a new page with a different layout, for a disclaimer page. I've tried many different scenarios using Anchors and page breaks. Is this even possible with Oracle Reports 6i, to have a new page with a different layout in a contract level repeating frame? Any suggestions would help.
    Thanks.

    You have 2 repeating frames: R_contracts and R_ads. Create a frame M_disclaimer after R_ads, within R_contracts to hold the disclaimer page. This page will print after all the ad records have been printed, and before the new contract starts.
    You can set Page Break Before on M_disclaimer to print this frame on a new page.

  • Adobe PDF Pack - Can I create a Table of Contents in combined PDF files I am creating?

    Can I create in Adobe PDF Pack a table of contents for PDF files I am combining? 
    If the answer is YES do I name each of the PDF documents name the name I want the page to be named in the Table of Contents?
    Thank  you.
    Michael

    Hi Michael,
    When you combine files into a single PDF, each file you include will have a bookmark in the Bookmarks panel in Acrobat/Reader. So, I suppose you could treat that as a Table of Contents. (It doesn't, however, create a separate TOC and append it to the file.) The bookmark names reflect the filename of each file you combined.
    I hope that answers your question.
    Best,

  • Printing document with table to PDF - file disappears

    When I print a document to PDF from either AppleWorks or MS Word, it is saved to the location as PDF and works as would be expected. If the file contains a table, the PDF file initially appears where saved but disappears when I attempt to access it.
    The document was initially created in AppleWorks. The MS Word document was translated from AppleWorks.
    The PDF file quite literally disappears from the screen. All routine Mac software maintenance is on schedule and all Apple updates for my OS completed to date.

    The solution is logical, if annoying.
    My Print to PDF problem has been solved. I complained about not being able to save documents containing tables created on AppleWorks as PDF, but the tables were not the problem. The problem was a font within a table. I discovered this when I could also not print the document to a printer. Despite saving as PDF being a print routine, I cannot get out of Save As mode. The document did print to PDF on my mother’s iBook because another font was substituted in the table.
    There are several fonts on my PowerBook that will not print, even on a postscript printer that has them on board. That is a separate and largely ignored problem. One of those is the Bookman family. Too bad. I like that family and use it frequently with older operating systems, but OS X refuses to print anything containing that font. I have never taken the time to troubleshoot the problem.
    I had already performed the searches suggested to no avail. The point of all this is that font problems that prevent printing a document to a printer will also prevent a document from printing to PDF. The icon initially appearing then going away seems odd to me but probably not to a MacGeek.
    Thank you, Mask, for giving thought to this issue. Now, maybe I should invest in a font troubleshooting application.

  • How can I create a one-click download for a PDF file?

    I want to have several PDF files on the website ... for downloading. How do I create a one-click download button? for those who don't know about control-right-clicking to download something?
    Does such a possibility exist?
    Ben

    Hi Quicktime Kirk,
    Thank you. And that leads me to another question: I've used the zip function before, with the idea of making a smaller file for transfers; but the PDF I get from Pages doesn't seem to compress any more when supposedly further compressed by .zip. Meaning, same size files.
    Is this supposed to be like this? And, just so I understand, the file needs to be a .zip file for this one-click function to work? Have I got that right? Or will it work just as well with the .pdf file? Given there is no difference in the compression.

  • Since upgrading to FF 7.0.1 I can no longer view .pdf files from web pages and there is no plug in..

    The .pdf viewer plug in for FF3.6 worked fine but upgrading to FF7.0.1 has caused the problem. There are no such plugins for this version. I must go back to FF3.6 with the plugin and then if one for FF7.0.1 doesn;t exist by the time Mozilla stops supporting 3.6 I will go back to Safari as my browser I guess.

    I already reinstalled the Adobe's and it didn't solve anything. What I did find is that when faced with a pdf I want to view, I have to right click "Save Link As..." and then I can view the resultant pdf. Cumbersome perhaps but I guess it works.
    Thanks though for the snotty tone in your response; indeed I realize its not FF's job to ensure my machine is updated. However I'm a business guy not an IT guy and my guess is the business guys at Mozilla would want to be aware of things that would impact the use of their product. And if moving forward with new iterations and updated versions of their product changed the users experience in a negative fashion, however caused, I'm sure they would want to consider what actions they may or may not want to take.
    Furthermore its unfortunate that you mistakenly interpreted my words to mean that I expected them to rectify the issue for me. I simply stated that currently it doesn't work for me and if that doesn't change, I would have to move in a different direction. Simple as that. It's not a big deal.
    So perhaps your typical IT guy "users are so dumb" mantra was misplaced here.
