Can't download or open a fillable pdf with Windows 8.1   - desperately need help!

My son is working on a Boy Scout Eagle project.  He recently got a computer with Windows 8.1.  I also have Windows 8.1 on my computer.  Neither of us are able to open the Eagle service project workbook fillable pdf form he already started and emailed to himself from his old computer or to download a new form from the BSA website.  The latest version of Adobe pdf reader (11) is installed on both our machines.  Here is the page from which we are to download the form:
Eagle Scout Service Project Workbook Procedures
Can anyone help us?

Have you tried opening the PDF directly from Adobe Reader? Windows 8.1 included Microsoft Reader, which is far less capable than Adobe Reader, and can't work with XFA-based PDF forms like the one you're trying to use.

    I have a Toshiba netbook with Windows 7 STARTER.
    Are there any special procedures I should follow? A different version I need to install, or something?
    I want to find answers before I start downloading and having trouble...
    Also, Home Sharing works with laptops (in my case, netbook) too, right?
    Thanks in advance (:
    No special proccedure, just follow the iTunes Windows 7 download instructions.
    Make sure you have a wired connection and connected power (especially).
    Yes, home sharing works with laptops.

  • I can't download itunes to a new laptop with windows 7

    As usual with Apple you get in a cul-de-sac and you cant find reverse gear.  I have I tunes on a previous laptop and want to download it to a new laptop from the apple website.  It won't play and keeps telling me "thanks for downloading" but nothing has downloaded.
    Any ideas?

    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • Adobe Reader XI won't launch, can't download or open existing PDF files.

    Running Windows 7 and have had no trouble with PDF files until few weeks ago.  Now Adobe Reader Xi won't execute and I can't download or open existing PDF files using Adobe.  Interesting that I can open existing PDF files unsit PaintShop Pro X4 but not in Adobe.  Have unistalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader XI several times with no change in problem.

    You can try using Windows Explorer to navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement

  • Can't open libHaru-generated PDF with Reader, other readers work.

    Our application uses libHaru to export PDF images.  These PDFs can be opened using PDFlite on Windows, Preview on Mac and some other readers.  However, I have tried several versions of Adobe Reader on both platforms and the files fail to open with the message: "There was an error processing a page.  There was a problem reading this document (14)."   So, it seams that Adobe Reader believes that there is problem with this file.  However, from my very limited understanding of PDF structure, I have no idea what might be wrong, so I don't know how to fix it.  The file is written unencrypted.  It is about as simple a PDF as we can generate - a red-filled rectangle.  I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or help.
    Here is a sample PDF:

    You would need to post a sample PDF that demonstrates the problem.  All you posted there is text.  (PDF is a BINARY file format)

  • Has anyone run into the problem of downloading or opening an E.pdf file? I am running on 10.6.8 and am unable to open the file. Any suggestions?

    Has anyone run into the problem of downloading or opening an E.pdf file? I am running on 10.6.8 and am unable to open the file. Any suggestions?

    That crash appears to be casued by the Facebook plug-in.
    Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts or Users & Groups on 10.7 and 10.8), make a new Library in that account, import some shots  and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

    Hi LrettigMD,
    Editing a PDF requires Acrobat (not Reader). You are welcome to download a free 30-day trial of Acrobat from www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html if you'd like to give it a try.

  • Using a fillable PDF with a FormsCentral Link collection.

    I want to inport a fillable PDF and then use the Forms Central link distribution to collect responses vs sending out the fillable PDF with a submit button. How do I do that ?

    Good day,
    Our CreatePDF service does not allow you to create fillable PDF files. You can find an overview of CreatePDF's features here: https://www.acrobat.com/createpdf/en/features.html
    For this capability, you need Adobe Acrobat.
    There is no upgrade path from CreatePDF to Adobe Acrobat available.
    Kind regards,
    David

    your device should open up in iphoto so you can view your pictures. click import all and you can choose to delete from device after import or not.

  • Can I distribute the open source SWF compiler with my application?

    I'm unclear reading the documentation if there is a difference between Adobe's official Flex SDK, and the open source version?
    Can I distribute the open source SWF compiler with my application?
    I have a flash application that users can change the fonts being displayed, if they supply the fonts in a compiled SWF. I found I can let the user select a font from their computer system, and using the mxmlc command I can easily generate a SWF with the font, which can be loaded by my application so the font will be part of the run time application when played on systems without that font already in the System fonts.
    I was wondering if I could distribute the open source SDK so that I could compile these font SWFs for the user so they would not have to get involved in complicated Flash development. The audience is non Flash audience.
    I tried using SWFMill but the fonts don't seem to work as they do with the mxmlc compile.
    Thank you,
    Scott Kerr

    Moreover check also the compatibility of your open source license with MPL
