Can not compare documents

Hi, I just found out that you can compare documents in Acrobat.  By problem is that I have two versions of a document that I would like to compare in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.  But when I go to > Document > Compare Documents it comes up with an error message:
“These documents have security settings which prevent comparison.  Please modify the security settings to allow editing and try again.”
In both documents I have gone to > Advanced > Security > Show Security Properties; but the both show in the Security Tab “No Security” in the Security Method and everything is “Allowed” in the document restrictions part.
What other security settings would this error message be talking about?
Thanks in advance

I have the same trouble when I compare secured documents. I have received the documents from other person who has secured the documents and I can not change the settings.
So, how to compare secured documents? I see no reason why to prevent comparison because I do not edit them, only compare.

    Since you have a roaming profile, you must be connected to a Windows server. If so then you should discuss this problem with your network administrator.

    This sounds like you are trying to edit an XFA form (created perhaps by LiveCycle Designer). These forms are not editable by the mobile Reader. You are welcome to share your form with us at [email protected] and I can confirm or give you a better answer (there are some less common reasons that the fields are locked like encryption, signatures, document passwords or disabled filling rights).

    Security Update 2012-001 Bricks Rosetta programs
    I've outlined the restore proceedure here, it covers a lot of bases and explains what is going to occur so please don't be intimidated it's a LOT easier that it appears.
    Take your time and comprehend the steps involved and you'll be backup up like before in short order.
    Restore method.
    #1 Backup your personal data off the machine.
    If you get a gray screen or some other hangup upon booting, try holding the Shift key down while booting to enter Safe Mode.
    Backup files off the computer (not to TimeMachine). If you don't have a external drive, get one and connect to the USB/Firewire port and simply drag and drop copy your User folder to the external drive, it will copy all your files. It's best to have two backups of your data off the machine when trying to restore.
    Disconnect all drives now to prevent any mistakes from occuring.
    #2 Try Restoring from a TimeMachine or hold option bootable clone
    If you have TimeMachine drive, or a hold the option key bootable clone use that to erase and restore from before the Security Update occured.
    Obviously if you didn't make a recent backup before the update, your going to have to skip to Step #3.
    Note: A TM restore can take a awfully long time, a clone restore takes under 2 hours in most cases.
    If you don't know how to restore from TM drive
    http://pondini.org/OSX/Home.html
    #3 Reinstall OS X 10.6 from disk
    If no recent TM or bootable clone then:
    Get out your 10.6 install disk and make sure it's clean and polished (very soft cloth and a bit of rubbing alcohol, no scratches) If your disk is borked, you'll have to order a new one from Apple with your serial number.
    Hold c boot off the 10.6 disk (wired keyboard, internal optical drive), use Disk Utility First Aid to >Repair Disk and Permissions of your internal drive  (do not format or erase!!), Quit DU and simply re-install 10.6.
    Note: Simply reinstalling 10.6 version from disk (without erasing the drive) only replaces 10.6.8 with 10.6.x and bundled Apple programs, won't touch your files (backup anyway)  or most programs, unless they installed a kext file into OS X itself. (only a few on average do this)
    Note: If Disk Uitlity can't repair the drive, then come back to seek further assistance and make sure you have a copy of your data off the machine.
    #4 Update to 10.6.8 without Security Update 2012-001
    Reboot and log in, update to 10.6.8 via Software Update, but EXCLUDE THE Security Update 2012-001 by checkinig the details and unchecking the blue check box.
    #5 Reinstall any non-working third party programs
    When you reboot, make sure to reinstall any programs that require kext files installed into OS X, you'll know, they won't work when you launch them or hang for some reason.
    If for some freakish reason you get gray screen at any time when booting (possible it might occur when you reinstall older programs), hold the shift key down while booting (Safe Mode, disables kext files) and update your installed third party software so it's compatible with 10.6.8.
    https://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570
    Note: For most users likley Step #3 and #4 is likley all that is needed to be done.
    That's it really.

    Unverified hacks
    Note: You may see a "hack" for this issue floating around, it has had mixed results as people's software is different.
    You may want to try it, but it's at your own risk. It has worked fast for some and not at all for others, hopefully over time it will work for all.
    The above methods I outline are Apple approved restore methods + based upon experience here and not a quick fix, but are sure to work as Apple recommends such steps themselves.
    If at any time you feel this is beyond your capability, please seek local Mac/PC professional assistance before you lose your data.
    In fact my steps above are very simple, you might want to have a family member or friend perfrom the proceedure in about a hour or two.
    If you don't have any backup, please maintain at least a TM drive, just hook up a new blank external drive and TM will ask you to make a backup, takes some time so let it work.
    If your a bit more skilled, a option bootable clone is much superior than TM drive.
    Good Luck

  • Can not open document "xy.key" in keynote 6.

    Hi
    my yosemite crashed while working on a keynote presentation, and after reboot, while opening keynote, it says "can not open document xy.key".
    Googling tells me, that in older versions your able to change the .key extension to zip, and repair that file.
    In Keynote 6 this is not possible anymore regarding to file format changes.
    How can I rescue my 30 Megabyte document?
    Thank you for your answers.
    Sebastian

    If other presentations are opening without problems, the file you are trying to open is probably corrupt and unrepairable so open a back up file of the presentation

    You are correct.  However, a document can not be opened by another computer unless the document has first been open by an iDevice.
    iwork on iOS uses different file formats ( *.tef ) then iwork09 on Mac ( *.key , *. number , *.page ).
    Uploaded documents to icloud.com must first be updated to the *.tef format and then re-written to the cloud system. The online service behind the iwork web-app does the re-conversion to Mac formats, pdf or Microsoft office. All that is happening "in the cloud", not on your Mac as he misses the engine to do the transcoding from the *.tef to the other formats. Mac simply does not know what *.tef is.

  • Can not open documents

    I recently installed Pages 09 along with Snow Leopard. Now I can not open previously saved documents in Pages. Help?

    You haven't given a lot of detail so I'm going with the most common causes for problems with iWork & Snow Leopard.
    First, use the Mac OS 10.6.4 combo updater. This fixes a problem with the Hoefler Text font that is not fixed using the delta update (10.6.1 > 10.6.2).
    Second, make sure your iWork applications are updated. For iWork '08 that is Pages 3.0.3 & Numbers 1.0.3. For iWork '09 it's Pages 4.0.3 & Numbers 2.0.3. If you're not running the latest versions & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. They must be in the iWork '08 or iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '08 or iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '08 or '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.
    Third, use Disk Utility to repair permissions.

    No, you can't open the backup copies of most files, and you can't change any of them. You must restore them to another location to be able to use them.
