Dynamic populate works in livecycle, but not in reader

When I'm in Livecycle, my dropdown list is dynamically populated from my XML file when i preview it, but when I open the PDF in Reader 8.0, it does not auto-populate. I've specified where my XML file is, so it should be able to find it.

The free version of Adobe Reader (i.e. the one that's freely available for download from Adobe) doesn't allow 'data import' - which is what I think you're doing with your XML file - unless the PDF has been magically 'unlocked' via LiveCycle Forms ES or Reader Extensions ES.
But, if the version of Reader you're using is the one that comes with Acrobat Professional (which also includes LiveCycle Designer), then the above doesn't apply, and as far as I know 'data import' should work.
I should point out that I'm not an Adobe expert, I'm just sharing knowledge I've struggled to obtain via the same route as you - i.e. having to rely on message boards and blogs.
If only there was an equivalent of MSDN for Adobe....

Dynamic spelling works on PC but not on Mac CS5.5

I have a simiar issue as ebookaficiando in a previous thread. in our group we use indd file cs5.5 on a pcs and macs, when we open the file in a mac the dynamic spelling does not work. If we make a file from scratch on the mac, the dynamic spelling works normally.
We need dynamic spelling to work on both PC and mac since we work on these same files on both PCs and Macs.
Any ideas?

Thanks Peter
Yep - Checked the prefs and all the usual suspects and suggestions from a few previous threads, also updated to latest the version.
The problem seems to be on all the files that were originally created in a PC environment. When we open the file in our Mac environment the Dynamic Spell check function no longer works - checked all the settings, the charcter language tab is on (US English), we're not in overprint preview mode etc. The dynamic spelling works fine in the PC environment. I guess not so many users are working in groups with a cross-platform environment.

Dynamic text works in preview but not when uploaded

ah ha sorted - seems to have something to do with relative
links. Changing site root relative links to document relative links
has done the trick.

.pdf works in Acrobat Pro 8 but not Adobe Reader 8

I have a dynamic .pdf that I created in Livecycle Designer.
It works perfectly in Acrobat Pro 8 but not Adobe Reader 8.
There is a function that highlights a form field orange. It is called from the enter event of every form field.
There is another function that highlights a form field red if the field contains an invalid value. This is called from the exit event of every form field.
When I enter a field in Reader 8, it highlights orange as it should but does not allow me to enter a value and it adds an additional blank page to the .pdf. Also, it does not highlight red as it should on exit.
If I remove the enter script, the exit script works fine.
I sent the .pdf to somebody to test and it worked perfectly for him in Reader 8.00 but not for me in 8.00 or 8.01 which makes me think maybe it is just a problem with my settings.
Can anybody help?
Thank you.

Okay, I just upgraded to Acrobat Pro 8.1 and the .pdf fails there now too.
So my problem is not an inconsistency between Acrobat and Reader, it is that the .pdf works in the earlier 8.0 but not the latest 8.1.
I am happy to send the .pdf to anybody who wants to see it. Hopefully the problem is with my code and not the update.
Thanks.

Why does the counter work in MAX, but not Labview?

Please help, I have been away from Labview for over 3 months, and I am quite rusty....
Last year, I successfully configured NI9401 to measure period (seconds) by counting the rising edges of my sensor signal. Since then, I have aquired a new PC, and loaded all my software into it, including the Labview VI's that successfully worked on the old computer.
I can see the digital signal using MAX and the test panel for the NI9401, so, I know my wiring and my TTL signal is OK, but, when I try to run the attached VI, nothing happens except the error below.. How do I tell this VI to look for the signal on MOD3/CTR0 and channel 14?
Thanks. I am sure it is a small adjustment...this worked fine a few months ago...not sure what is wrong now.
Thanks,
Dave
Solved!

OK, now. Resolved the issue. The vi is fine, but, some shaky wires were identified...worked in MAX but not in the vi. Now that the connections have been tightened up, it works for both. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hello,

Thanks in advance.

Edit: I succeeded to solve it accidentally. I did the following: Sign the jar in Netbeans, clean and build, the jar didn't work, I wiped out the .ks from the jar and clean and build again. Now it worked.

Wifi works at home but not when away from home

My Wifi works at home but not when away from home, what is wrong? I thought with a phone plan I didn't need to have a wifi connection.

You either need WiFi or Cellular (or both). If you have neither, you can't connect to the internet.
Most people use WiFi at home and Cellular while away from home, or connect to public WiFi networks where there are some.

Can't FaceTime anymore? iPad states wifi connected and iPhone 4 states not connected? I have wireless in my home? Not sure what happened. Password works for iPad but not on phone?

iPhone won't connect to wifi. iPad is connected. Password working on iPad but not on phone. Can't upload software update of IOS 7.1 because phone not connecting to wifi?

Connect iPhone to computer and open iTunes. You will be prompted to update to iOS 7.0. Keep your phone connected until the update is finished.

Album Art works for most, but not all

I was reading previous forums on the subject, but no clear answer was given..
The album art shows up fine in itunes and my library and works for most of my music on my ipod, but how come some album's art does appear? I have it set manually and select 'Get Info' then 'Artwork' and add it from there, then drag in the finished product to my ipod. I've been doing that and it works fine for most of the albums, but every so often, the album art will not appear on my ipod. Am I doing something wrong? I take them all from the same source (amazon.com) but it makes no sense to me how some randomly don't appear.
I tried deleting the artwork and re-adding it, but nothing happened again. If you could answer why it works for most but not all or how I can get the album art to appear for the ones it will not by re-doing something, it would be appreciated. thanks.

I encountered the same problem in the beginning. When I compared the size of the original images, the working ones seemed to be smaller in general, so I reduced the size of all covers I intended to upload on the pod to 300x300 pixels.
This seemed to work - for 2 days. I bought the pod on friday, had pictures on sunday, but on Monday (after the first time the pod was fully discharged) none were left left.
So I ended searching this forum for related problems...
And decided to join my problem to this entry.

Medical app from Intuit works in IE, but not Firefox.

Encrypted medical app works in new IE, but not Firefox. Everything works down to the end, and click on "continue" and nothing happens. A tech and I have spent hours on this. Did not work on FF5 or 6. Did not work on old IE, but did on fresh new version with no data files copied in.

If it works in IE but not FF, then it has nothing to do with the mp3s. More likely it's because of the HTML on the page.
To start, page is missing DOCTYPE declaration... a MAJOR problem. The DOCTYPE declares which set of rules the browser will use to display the page. Without it, different browsers go crazy or do not work at all.

You will have to fix all the errors if you want this to work in all browsers.

Flash Player works in Safari but not Internet Explorer 9

I've installed Flash Player 10.3 and it works in Safari but not Internet Explorer 9. When I look in Manage Add-Ins I see Flash Shockwave but not Flash Player. My operating system is Windows Vista Ultimate (32bit). Safari is 5.0.5 and IE 9 is 9.0.8112.16421. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing Flash Player and uninstalling Norton 360. Nothing has worked so far. Can you help?

Thank you for your reply. Shockwave is loaded and enabled.
The files in flash directory are: a folder called FlashPlayerTrust: file, flash10q.ocx: file, FlashInstall.log; file, FlashUtil10q_ActiveX.dll; file, FlashUtil10q_ActiveX.exe, file, install.log.
There is no file: NPSWF32.dll.
When I test the browsers I get no spinning logo in either Safari or IE9. Safari says: missing plug-in, where I think the logo should be. IE-9 says nothing at the same location.
Thanks.

Navigation works in IE but not Firefox or Safari!

Hi guys
Why do my nav links on the hompage work in IE but not in Firefox and Safari? http://www.jasonkieck.com/
Any help would be appreciated

The main reason is you have a <div id="bg_grid"> at the end of your html that is essentially over the top of everything else on your page, including your links. All clicks go to that <div> rather than your links undeneath it. I'm kind of surprised it works in IE to be honest.
You do also have a ton of errors as Gramps points out, but that particular issue is not technically an error, so I have a feeling you could fix the ~100 problems shown by the validator and still have the issue.
You could use z-index to "order the stack" as it were. Changing the z-index attributes for the css of those elements will allow you to change their order, regardless of their location in the html. A higher z-index number, the "closer" it is to the viewer (higher on the stack).
Right now, they are both set to 1, so the one that comes later in the html is on top.
Adding z-index:999 to the menu <div> should do it,
