  • Can't open password protected PDF files.

    As per the thread title, I can't seem to open password protected PDF files via the Mail app.
    I've read that you can open them if they're synced and opened via iBook, however, this is not an option for me.
    I get sent several password protected PDF for work per week and would like to be able to read them directly from the Mail app just like a regular PDF file.
    Does Apple know of this issue and will they implement a fix in the near future?

  • Acrobat XI Pro for OSX can't open password-protected pdfs created using Acrobat 9 Pro for Windows

    I am having problems opening password-protected files created on a PC using Acrobat 9 Pro.  I am running a MacBook Pro OSX 10.8.4 with Acrobat XI Pro.  When I attempt to enter the password when prompted, a dialogue box pops up saying that I've entered the incorrect password.  After many attempts, I am certain that the password entered is correct -- this is reinforced by the fact that i am able to open the same document using Mac's Preview software.
    Any assistance would be appreciated!
    Thanks.

    I was suddenly having the same problem in Acrobat XI Pro for Windows (recently upgraded to CC from Acrobat X).  For the past while I've sometimes had to use the "insert from file" tool to get a page added from another file.  I couldn't figure out why dragging sometimes would no longer work, but was too busy to go looking for a solution until tonight. 
    The solution was given by JoshTatum24 above. Switch from a scrolling page display to single page display.  Now I can drag pages between documents again.  THANK YOU Josh!
    Oh, and CORREAdmin,  it does not matter whether the hand or arrow selection tool is active, my mouse pointer is always an arrow when positioned in the page thumbnails panel.  Switching selection tools does not make a difference in dragging, but switching between scrolling and single page display definitely DOES make the difference.

  • I cannot open password protected PDF document with attachments with Adobe Reader on OS X. Crashes.

    I cannot open password protected PDF document having attachments on my OS X (v 10.8.4) with Adobe Reader X nor XI. The reader crashes. The same document using the same password opens fine on the laptop and Windows systems wheni it is fetched from a secure mail server. Why?

  • Unable to open password protected PDF in safari

    Dear all, I'm new in using iPhone safari. I have problem in opening password protected PDF file from safari. Do you have any solution or workaround to resolve this problem
    Regards
    BR

    You can put pretty much any character into the encryption password for a PDF file apart from control codes (carriage returns, backspaces, etc), but whether the vendor's website can is another matter!
    As you seem to have a PDF with a user password that isn't what you expected, there's nothing you can do to remove it other than perhaps trying a version without the quote characters, or with a backslash in front of the quote (it's possible they escaped the string on the login form in preparation for storing it in a database, and forgot to unescape it again).

  • Will the new iPad open password protected PDF files?

    I attend college online, and have always had a problem viewing password protected PDF files on my iPad. Will the new iPad allow opening these files?
    Thank you!

    You can install the same iOS version running the new iPad onto your iPad.
    Download the free Adobe Reader app from the App Store. It opens password protected PDFs just like thee desktop version.

  • 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.

  • Can you print password protected pdfs from an ipad?

    can you print password protected pdfs from an ipad?

    This may help, but I do note that the printer you state is NOT on the airprint list. You may need to go to the app store and see if Canon has an app that will facilitate printing on a non AirPrint device.

  • Acrobat 8.1 and C# - How can you detect password protected PDF files?

    I am modifying our existing C# code that opens PDF files.  But when ever we hit a password protected file, we are prompted for a password.  This is an automated process, so if we detect a password protected file, we move the file to a manual processing folder to be processed later.
    We are using Acrobat 8.1 Standard.
    Our code looks like this:
    using 
    System;
    using 
    System.Collections.Generic;
    using 
    System.Linq;
    using 
    System.Text;
    using 
    Acrobat;
    using 
    System.IO;
    using 
    Word = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word;
    using 
    System.Reflection;
         AcroApp app = new AcroApp();     app.Hide();
         try
              if (app != null)          {
                   app.CloseAllDocs();
                   AcroAVDoc av = new AcroAVDoc(); 
                   if (av.Open(filename, "Test") == true)               {
                        AcroPDDoc doc = new AcroPDDoc();                    doc = (
    AcroPDDoc)av.GetPDDoc(); 
                        doc.Save((
    short)Acrobat.PDSaveFlags.PDSaveFull, 
                        Utilities.GeneratePath(FileVersion.TEMP) + fi.Name.RemoveFileExtension() + ".PDF");                    doc.Close();
         catch (Exception ex)     {
              ErrorLog.LogError(filename.RemoveFileExtension(), ex);     }
         finally
              app.CloseAllDocs();
              app.Exit();
    This works great for non-password protected PDF files, but it prompts for a password if the file is password protected.  I was looking at the FileOpenEX functionality, but I can not find the reference to bring into my C# project.  It looks like it is only for C++, since I could only find C++ examples.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Tom

    There are no methods in the Acrobat SDK for C# for what you wish to accomplish.

  • Open password protected PDF in website

    Hi,
    I hope someone can help me. Greatly appreciate it.
    My website has PDF documents that's available for registered users to view online (through my site) only.
    Currently, I can't find any solutions to prevent users from downloading/"save-as" the PDF doc in their local drives, so I'm thinking of password-protecting these PDFs. This will ensure that they'd not be able to view the PDFs even though they download it and save-as local.
    However, how do I open these password-protected PDFs on my site?
    When I point/redirect to these PDFs, it will prompt for password.
    It'd defeat all protection intent if I were to give the password to the user to enter, right?
    Example:
    1. Response.Redirect("mySecuredPdf.pdf")
    2. The browser will then prompt user for password.
    What can I do in the CodeBehind to enable the server to OPEN the pdf, and at the same time, pass the correct password to the viewer to open without prompting?
    I cannot remove password, because I want to prevent users from downloading and then opening it later, or redistributing the file.
    btw, i'm using ASP.NET.
    Please help.

    There's a similar thread in the Acrobat Windows section, and the answer is the same - only a DRM system with a client UI (such as Adobe Digital Editions) can restrict the *use* of a file. You cannot prevent the client downloading and saving it, as otherwise they can't see it on their screen. The page you're reading now is not on a computer at Adobe - it's on yours.
    > What can I do in the CodeBehind to enable the server to OPEN the pdf, and at the same time, pass the correct password to the viewer to open without prompting?
    I think you're getting the flow a little backwards - the PDF is 'opened' by the client, using their copy of Adobe Reader (or whatever). The webserver has nothing to do with the process other than blindly sending the file's 1s and 0s down a wire, so can't do anything to directly control the client's desktop applications.

  • Opening Password protected PDF's

    I am using the AcrobatPDFOCX control in a Visual Basic 2005 program to open and view PDF documents.  I have several password protected PDF files that I wish to open using this control.  Here is the command that I use to open  a PDF File
    AxAcroPDF1.LoadFile(Application.StartupPath + "\" + FileName + ".PDF") 
    When this command executes for a Password Protected PDF I am prompted to provide the password.  Is there a way to pass the password programmatically from VB to the password protected PDF file thus allowing it to open.

    Thanks for your prompt reply.  I tried SendKeys.wait("Password") and SendKeys.sendwait("Password").  Neither one appeared to work.  Prompt for password showed but the string "Password" was not read or sent or went to bit heaven. I tried using WinExist("Password") but VB is saying this function has not been declared.  Can you help with the declaration I need to activate this function?

  • How can I open a protected PDF
