Delete signatures in Adobe X (Password issues)

A few months ago I was having problems with Adobe so it was deactivated and re-installed.
I'm assuming this is why I'm having issues now, however, I was able to sign until now.
I am unable to sign any documents due to "password incorrect".
I did not change my password.
When I go through the steps to delete the existing signatures to create a new one, it again prompts for the password and does not allow me to move forward "password incorrect".
I do not want to have my list full of signature ID's that is not valid. I have one for work, professional organization and two personal.
I'm finding that the password protection is not such a good idea since I'm not using a shared computer. However, I do like the option of having the extra security.
Should I uninstall and re-install or will it still remember my past information. Again, I'm thinking this is why I'm having the problem now due to uninstall/re-install a few months ago.
Any insight is greatly appreciated!
Make it a great day!!

The password it needs is the password for your digital ID, which you haven't changed, but cannot recover. Reinstalling will not get it back.

Problem creating PKCS# 12 Digital Signature in Adobe Reader X - where do I confirm the Password?

I cannot create a PKCS# 12 Digital Signature in Adobe Reader X. It says the passwords don't match when I create it. The problem is, I never was asked to confirm the P/W when I created it. It asked once for the P/W and then the only thing I can do is click "Finish" and then it says my P/W don't match. I am able to create a DS on my other computer using Reader 9 (and it did ask me to confirm the P/W when creating). I have re-booted my computer and still it will not work.

You'll need to ask in the Acrobat Pro forum. There are people there with expertise who can answer this. I use Acrobat myself, but I'm a novice when it comes to signature settings.

Adobe 9.0 Pro deleting signature field

How do you delete a signature field in adobe 9.0 pro or standard? I can clear the signature, but not delete it entirely. I need to show engineers how to do this in case they create it the wrong size or in the wrong place.
In adobe 7.0 pro and standard you get the "delete signature field" option when you right click over the block.
Please help.

same problem here, since i installed the 9.2 update...
when i launch acrobat 9.2 pro it opens all the last used pdf's and then it crashes!
please help
tom
this seems to work:
open acrobat by holding the shift key
clear history
close acrobat
open acrobat again
Thanks Tom for this! I am glad I found this thread.
I installed Acrobat Pro 9 two weeks ago, and used it fine.
This morning, logged in, automatically started installing updates.
Then, opening a file in Acrobat, it opened the four I used yesterday.
Some of them are pretty big, and when I tried to close then, it crashed.
I tried to delete history, and then open them.
But, following your advice, I:
Opened Acrobat
Deleted history
Closed Acrobat
Opened Acrobat
Opened file in Acrobat
Seems to be working okay now. Thanks!
Still, seems to me that the latest update installment may have a bug.

Digital Signatures in Adobe 8 Professional

I have 2 questions regarding digital signatures in Adobe Acrobat Professional
1.) Is it possible to digitally sign a document multiple times without having to resave the document each time you sign? This would be really helpful in dealing with contracts in adobe where multiple signatures are required.
2.) If you email a pdf with digital signatures is it possible for the recipient to delete these signatures? Or to not be able to view them?
Thanks a lot!

Regarding #1, the short answer is no. Every time the file is digitally signed it necessitates it being saved. That's what allow "View Signed Version" and signature roll back to work.
As for # 2, it depends on the version of Acrobat. Versions 6 and 7 allowed anyone to remove a signature as long as it wasn't a certifying signature. In the case of the certifying signature on the signer could remove. Beginning with version 8 you can only clear if you have access to the digital ID that was used to create the signature.

Appearance of Digital Signature in Adobe Acrobat 8

I am creating a digital Signature in Adobe Acrobat 8 and am having difficulty getting all the information to appear clearly. The first example below shows, the signature, name and date. I would also like to include the name of the Company. The only way I have been able to do that is by clicking the “distinguished name” box in the appearance section of the digital signatures. An example of this signature is also shown below. However, additional information such as the name (again), email and country are also being listed. There are numerous abbreviations and equal signs now appearing as well. Ideally I would like the signature to look like the first one with the company name appearing just above the person’s name. Can anyone help me do this?
Thank you!

Hi,
For the first problem (word wrap). The problem you are encountering is if "Maryanne Doe" is too long to fit in half of the signature field, the text wraps to the next line. The signature appearance that is written into the signature field consists of two halves. The left half contains the graphic properties and the right half contains the text properties.
You need to lengthen the width of the area where the graphics portion of the signature is contained. You can do this one of two way. Either lengthen the physical dimensions of the signature field before you sign. Or, you could create a custom signature appearance where you turn off all of the text properties, which has the effect of giving the whole signature fields over to the graphics portion. To play with custom signature appearances:
Select the Edit > Preferences (Win) or the Acrobat > Preferences (Mac) menu item
Select Security from the Categories list box
Click the New button in the Appearance group box
If you select the No Graphic radio button you give all of the space to the text portion. If you deselect all of the checkboxes in the Configure Text area, you give all of the space to the graphics portion.
While you are in the Preferences dialog, select Identity from the Categories list box. Go ahead and fill in all of the editable fields. This is where the data is procured during the creation of a self-signed digital ID. I think that will fix the second issue you raised.

Digital Signature problem : Adobe forms

Hi Experts,
I am facing one issue in Adobe forms while implementing Digital Signature in one of the Custom Adobe form. I am following some steps as mentioned in the below link
<link to blocked site removed by moderator>
The problem is when I execute my Adobe form I am not getting SIGN button in my generated form as mentioned in the link.
I am using Adobe Live cycle designer 8.2 and Adobe reader 9.
Please help me out on this since I am new to Adobe forms as well.
Thanks

Moderator message: this is the wrong forum, please have a look in the forum for "SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe".

Apart from the above question can anybody guide me whether do we need Adobe Acrobat instead of Adobe reader to implement Digital Signature in Adobe form.
Looking forward towards some useful suggestions!!
Thanks

Email password issues

Why am i having email password issues? This is the email from [email protected] "Your account (email) could not be authenticated. If you have recently changed your email password, please enter the most current password in settings to continue receiving emails. You can enter the password 100 times a day and still will not receive emails.
Anyone have an answer?

Delete and re-add the account. I just had the same thing happen, and that fixed it. I think it was some error on Verizon's end.

Possible solution to wi-fi password issues in OS X Lion

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to read this forum post.
In this post, I shall be outlining the possible solution to the wi-fi password issues that have surfaced in Lion, and will no doubt be fixed by Apple in an coming update. This is sort of a temporary thing that I found to work.
To backtrack in regards to the previous operating system, Snow Leopard, if you wanted to password protect your Wifi connection for example, in regards to sharing the internet connection between, for example, between your Mac and your Ipad, you were able to go into Sharing, Internet Sharing and click on Airport options and set a password.
For the moment this appears to be absent.
Instead, you now have to click on Wi-fi options and what now appears is something along the lines of asking to input a ASCII/HEX password.
At first this seems puzzling and at first, I reinstalled Snow Leopard due to this obvious ommision in regards to the previous method, and like everybody else has said, Internet Sharing worked perefectly well in Snow Leopard.
However, I decided to install Lion once again and try to figure out a solution and as such, I came across this website
http://www.andrewscompanies.com/tools/wep.asp
What the above website allows you to do is get a WEP key, which can be used in the Wi-fi options settings within Internet Sharing.
You simply click on the middle option on the webpage (which I did), to select 128bit key and copy and paste the HEX key, which appears under the section marked Generated Keys, into the password input section of Wi-fi options
This is where another problem arises. If you are sharing the internet connection between your Mac and your Ipad for example, the following steps need to be taken in order for this connection sharing to work
1.When you boot up your Mac, go to System Prefrences, Sharing, untick and tick the Internet Sharing checkbox and click Start on the dialog that appears.
2.Now on your Ipad, go to the Wi-fi tab, find your wireless network and click on the arrow next to it, click on Forget this network, go back to the Wi-fi screen again and tap on your Wi-fi network once again. It will now ask for your password. TYPE IN THE KEY. The connection between the Mac and the Ipad is established.
THE ABOVE STEPS WILL NEED TO BE DONE IF YOU TURN YOUR MAC OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON AGAIN.
As I've said previously, this should be a good temporary solution until Apple comes out with an update that can solve this issue
Thank you for your time

Had the same problem (random WiFi disconnects), but AppleCare solved it.
Delete Macintosh HD/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration.
You'll have to reconnect WiFi, but pswd etc should still be there.

Can I create PAdES signature using Adobe Acrobat 8.0 or 9.0?

Hi
Can I create PAdES (PDF Advanced Electronic Signatures, Technical Specification ETSI TS 102 778) signature using Adobe Acrobat 8.0 or 9.0?
ETSI Technical Specification (TS) 102 778 contains five parts:
• Part 1: PAdES Overview – a framework document for PAdES
• Part 2: PAdES Basic – Profile based on ISO 32000-1
• Part 3: PAdES Enhanced – PAdES-Basic Electronic Signatures and PAdES-Explicit Policy Electronic Signatures Profiles
• Part 4: PAdES Long Term – PAdES-Long Term Validation Profile
• Part 5: PAdES for XML Content – Profiles for XAdES signatures of XML content in PDF files
All five parts were published on 31 July 2009.
Thanks for answer.
Dragan

Hi,
The short answer is yes.
Acrobat 8 and later support all of requirements of PAdES such as serial signing, long term validation (time stamping and embedded revocation responses) and signatures in the PKCS#7 format.

How do I delete documents from Adobe Reader?

I frequently edit bulletins and such for church, that I then no longer need to have taking up space on my computer. How do I delete them from Adobe Reader?

Reader does not contain files, it only opens them. You need to find where the files are located on your computer, browse to that folder (via My Computer), select them and press Delete, just like with any other file-type.
