Can no longer fill out form--what happened?

I have an important form saved on my computer that had a typo in it, so I downloaded the free trial of Adobe Acrobat Pro X, corrected the typo, then deleted the free trial.  However, when I open the form with Adobe Reader I can no longer fill out the form.  I was able to fill out the form just fine before I edited it with the free trial of Pro X.  Is there any way I can fix this?  I did not change any settings (as far as I know), I only corrected a typo in the form and now I am having the problem of no longer being able to fill it out.  I appreciate any help, the form is for an important job application.

If the document was Reader-enabled so that Reader was able to save the filled-in form, and you used Acrobat to make changes to the text on a page (as opposed to text in a form field), the usage rights were removed. The modified document will have to be Reader-enabled, which is done with Acrobat.

    Yes.  I don't have the version you pay for.  I also tried the free version
    of EchoSign.  Maybe that caused the problem.
    Any more suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • Can Reader users fill out forms created by Pro users?

    I want to purchase Pro to send forms to customers and have them be able to electronically fill them out and send htem back, but will they have to have Pro in order to do this?

    No, Reader is enough for this purpose, but if they have Reader prior to XI
    then you'll need to apply the Extended Reader Rights to the file first,
    which has some legal conditions (mainly that you're not allowed to receive
    more than 500 submissions of the filled-in file done in Reader).

  • I have OS 10.9.2 and have downloaded latest version of Reader 11. I can no longer fill in form or scroll using the side bar.

    How do I get it to work? I am thinking of going back to an earlier version.
    Thanks.

    Well, I have tried filling up the same IRS Form 1040 on my Mac machine with Reader 11.0.07 installed and faced no such issue. I even downloaded the PDF to my machine and I was still able to fill-up the form.
    How are downloading the PDF file? Hope you are using the Save as option from with in Reader plugin and not the Safari Saved as option. The detailed instructions for doing so are as follows:
    Just click on any of the buttons highlighted in below screenshots to Save a pdf at any location on your machine.
    or
    To summarize the issue, if you had opened an Internet PDF in a browser plug-in, you must use the save feature in the plug-in, not the Safari File > PDF Export, or File > Save As...

    Hi,
    you can find documentation for Designer under this website
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/livecycle/10.0/documentation.html#task=4,5&module=2
    In Designer you can use the JavaScript API of Acrobat.
    So the Devnet for Acrobat is also a good source.

  • My ITunes gift card I brought, the Reemdem code had bin wide out so I can no longer see that code what do I do

    My ITunes gift card I brought, the Reemdem code had bin wide out so I can no longer see that code what do I do?

    "bin wide out"?
    If you mean you cannot read the code on the back of the card take it back to the store you purchased it from. If the numbers are not visable because you scratched them out I don't know if the store will replace or refund that. If you can read some of the numbers you could just keep trying a combination of letters and numbers to replace the missing ones. This will take a while depending on how many inputs are missing. You will have to use 0 through 9 and I am guessing A through Z.

    Just because I have an imac pre 2007 why can I not order photo albums???!!
    I spent hours building a photo album for my parents only to find out that because my mac is earlier than 2007, even though I have 10.6.8, I can no longer order?! What is with that? This makes no sense. I can go online to various "photo shop" place and regardless of the OS and computer I am working from I can order a photo album so why can I no longer do this through iPhoto on my MAC?
    How do I order my album now? If somebody could please explain as I am going home in 1 month and really wanted to surprise my aging parents with this book.

    I found this:

  • Opening filled out forms on non Adobe programs (like Preview) causes info to not appear.  How can I fix this?

    I didn't distribute using FormsCentral, I sent my form out manually.  I have now received lots of email responses with my filled out forms.  How can I easily save these as individual PDFs that are readable and printable, and not missing an information?

    Hello,
    yes we are using Adobe Reader / Acrobat on Windows XP / 7. We don't use a third party pdf product.
    I have repeated the following YouTube video and the PDF file in the email is emty (you can see the form but without the filled in text):
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtU2mnQZlW0
    Is it possible that the Adobe Product wants to connect to Adobe server to enable the feature if I save the file? We don't have a direct internet connection - we have to use a http proxy with authentication.
    Best Regards,
    Ralf

  • Can filled out forms have their data changed?

    1) I want to use Adobe online forms to take applications for a scholarship. Can my candidates revisit their form on different occasions to add / change their entered information?
    2) Can I give a collaborator access to ONLY ONE filled out form?
    AJ Willmer

    Hi ajwillmer,
    Unfortunately, we cannot add or change the data once the form is submitted. If the user submits the form twice, you will received 2 different response.
    Also, we can give collaborator access on one particular form and it will be form all the responses received on that particular form.

  • Can I save a filled out form in adobe reader

    How do I save a filled out form in adobe reader?

    When you fill out a filled out form in Adobe Reader, it is saved automatically when you quit the app (unless you crash). You could email the filled form, and it will open correctly filled out on Reader or Acrobat on Mac or Windows. (Warning: It may not look like it got filled out if you view it in Mail, Dropbox, or another iOS app, but it will appear correctly in Reader or Acrobat.)

  • Why can't I email filled out forms?

    I fill out a form, but when I email it it sends a blank.

    Hi Posrthos,
    Your data is in the form, but Apple's email application doesn't display forms or comments in PDF properly when it shows  the preview. The recipient of the email will be able to open the PDF in Adobe Reader and see the filled out form correctly, regardless of this issue in iOS.
    We have reported this problem to Apple and are working with them to make sure that they understand the PDF specification, but do not have any info on when or whether they will fix the display in their email app.
    Thanks

  • Acrobat Pro 7, Adobe Reader 8, and Filled out forms

    My head is spinning with all the "Acrobat features" that seem to be in Acrobat, but actually aren't. At least not in the version I always seem to have. I wish Adobe would be more diligent in explaining what features are are in which version and what features are in the Windows version that aren't in the Mac version.
    I'll do a search for a particular question. Get an answer of Yes, Acrobat can do that. Only to find out (through trial and error and usually not the article I'm reading) that I can't do what I what I want in the version I have.
    To my question: We are using Acrobat 7 (CS2) to make forms for people to fill out and return to us. The people filling out the forms will mostly be in Adobe Reader 8.
    How can we get those folks to send us the filled out form? I have yet to get that to work. I have Reader 8 on my machine and when I use the Submit Button method, Reader tells me SendMail can't recognize my mail client, but then gives me no way of fixing that? Where are SendMail preferences? SendMail isn't even in the Help menu!
    Any insight would be appreciated...

    There is a New feature in Acrobat 8, that allows usage rights (you have to choose in tools menu, to allow it.
    For small companies and Non-Profits, Adobe threw us a Bone. As long as as you receive no more than 500 respondents you can do this without breaking the EULA. (License agreement).
    What you do is create your form make sure you have perfected and needs no changes. then turn on this item in Tools menu to allow Fill out and email. Then post to a website or send individually to no more than 500 people by email. They can fill out the form save the changes then send back.
    However when you do this any person using Acrobat Pro 7 or Acrobat 8, or Reader 7 or 8 can do this. doesn't work bellow version 7. But Acrobat 8 is the only one (so far Than can create these.
    If you make a mistake in the form and find it after turning usage rights on you have to save a copy with rights turn of and make your changes then go through procedure again.

  • FF 29.0.1 bug - filled-out-forms

    Hi, ever since I started using Firefox, I'd often have tabs already-open with already-filled-out-forms that would, every single day without fail, have my data retained (I'd fill out the form, hit the Back button, and the data would still be seen in the form. Every morning, I'd open the same tabs with the same data and the tabs would have my data prepopulated in the forms as I left it the day before). This was very important because I do some activity every morning and don't want to have to fill out my forms on a daily basis.
    The 29.0.1 upgrade this weekend broke the preservation of this data. Now, I have to manually fill out the forms again. I do like the UI and UX upgrades, but why is it that this critical "feature" to me has been removed? The preservation of data was a paramount part of the Firefox experience for me.
    If this is intended behavior, I'd like to hear it. If this is not intended behavior, I look forward to 29.0.2 fixing the issue. It was never a problem in versions 15+ up until 29.0, but 29.0.1 is a game changer for me.
    (And by the way, I know there are ways around it, but having to manually click on autocomplete buttons or use form filler tools defeats the purpose of this already existing up until this version.)

    tamarsaw, <br />Yes. That or something similar is easy to do. I can understand you would rather just use Firefox than have to try troubleshooting it but the effort and results should pay off in the longer term.
    It is just a matter of transferring and overwriting files in the new profile. It is also possibly worth keeping backup copies maybe put a spare copy somewhere safe such as the Desktop or Documents.
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox#Suggested_profile_contents_to_transfer
    Remember you could for instance have the current profile retained for historic reasons. A totally clean profle for testing purposes, and a clean profile but with current open tabs and history/bookmarks.
    The new sync is worth using that will keep backups on a server. However it has sometimes been unreliable and troublesome in the past it would be wise not to become over-reliant and rely on it totally for anything very important. When you start Firefox from the profile manager you choose the profile to use. Or you have icons/shortcuts that use specific profiles
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Using_multiple_profiles_-_Firefox
    <u>Open Tabs</u>
    The recently opened tabs can be kept. That is the file '''''sessionstore.js'''''
    * see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Sessionstore.js
    Firefox does itself try to keep a backup copy of those sometimes but the system may not always be 100% reliable.
    <u>History</u>
    This is kept in the same database as the Bookmarks. The file is '''''places'sqlite''''' The bookmarks do have separate backups even without you making manual bookmarks. The History does not have backups.
    * see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Places.sqlite
    <u>Sync & Firefox Accounts (FxA)</u>
    The new Firefox Accounts from Firefox29 will backup opentabs and History to the server, AND allow you to use those backups even if you only have a single machine or even stop using one machine and register another single machine. The old sync was not designed to be used as a backup or with single devices.

  • Acrobat Pro 9 Mac**Making a pdf fill-out form non-editable when it is completed.

    HELP!!
    If anyone out there can help me I would greatly appreciate it.
    I see the forums are with LifeCycle but I need direction for the mac version of acrobat pro.
    I am creating a fill-out pdf form for distribution. I would like the person who receives the fill out form to complete the form,
    and click a "lock all fields" button or "form completed" button that will make all form fields lock/ non editable when emailed back to me.
    Where would I put this script? Can someone give me step by step direction for this button?
    I am a novice to this. I don't know how to run a javascript for the button or what is needed to get this completed.
    Can someone please help me.
    Thank you so much-

  • User being able to download filled out form in pdf format

    Hello,
    I'm testing the formscentral application and was wondering if the users are able to obtain a copy of the filled out form in pdf format versus just plain text in the email?
    Thanks

    No, respondents can only get the email with text responses. There is no way for them to get a PDF copy of what they filled out.
