Editing form issue
I created a form in Adobe Acrobat XI Standard and am no longer able to edit it. It isn't secured or protected so I do not understand why I can no longer edit it as I have been able to do so in the past. Any suggestions?
Has the form been setup for Distribution or has had Extended Reader Rights applied to the form?
If so you need to save the form without those features.
Also do not use the Windows Explorer preview when opening a PDF file or any file you want to edit.

SharePoint 2013 July 2014 CU - People Picker fields empty in Edit forms
After applying the July 2014 CU for SharePoint server, I discovered that Person or Group (People Picker) fields are not populated with server values in list item Edit forms. However, the field values can be viewed in list views
and in Display forms. I examined the client side code and determined that field data is not being returned from the server for Edit forms.
In a test environment, I uninstalled SharePoint 2013, reinstalled SP 2013 with SP1 and the issue went away. I then applied the May 2014, June 2014, and July 2014 CUs. The issue did not exist after applying the May and June CUs. It
did exist after applying the July 2014 CU.There is a workaround for this issue. It's a little convoluted, but hey, it's SharePoint. First, you must have a list that has at least one entry in it.
To begin with, you must first
have a list with at least one item in the list.
Next you edit the item with a role that has at least Design privilege, but don't save your changes.
Instead you Edit the page so you can then edit that web part. You can edit the page by clicking on the cog icon and selecting Edit Page
Edit the web part itself
Under “Miscellaneous” section on the just exposed web part window, select "Server Render (Server Render)" in the drop down labeled “CSR Render Mode
Click on “Apply” button within the web part
Save
I was told also the Sept CU would fix the issue but it is under review and to wait until the first of October. Incidentally we found that if you put the entire list into Quick Edit mode, the issue does
not appear.
I hope this helps someone. -
Error with Provider Hosted App on Edit Form of a list item
We have an error on the Edit Form of one of our pages.
We have developed a SharePoint Online Provider Hosted app which replaces the standard edit form of a list item and has some further events behind the save button. Since this is rather new territory for us, we're using a roundabout way of achieving this by
using a script editor web part to display an iFrame of our app. That way we can pass the Url through to our app and retrieve query strings from them.
Our issue comes quite intermittently in that we sometimes get a "web page cannot be found" error or sometimes a "resource cannot be found" error, however, when we load another app on the site (from the same app project, but using an app
part), then go back to the Edit Form, the information in the iFrame suddenly renders.
Any ideas on what might be causing this issue at all? Ideally, we should be rendering the app to the Edit Form is the proper manner, rather than scripting an iFrame that points to out app in Azure. Would this be the cause of the problem?
Thanks
TomHi thumper, if you have access to InfoPath, you can add the form to a page using the InfoPath web part. Otherwise, use SP Designer with instructions below:

I created a calculated column "Expiration Date" in SharePoint 2010 with formula, =IF([Contingent Hire]=TRUE,(Created+90),(IF([Contingent Hire]=FALSE," ")))
This works in the SharePoint list but when I go to edit the Edit Form in Designer. I get the error specified in the title of this post. I'm trying to make it so the Expiration Date is blank when another column, "Contingent Hire" (a YES/No
column) is FALSE.
The Edit Form is essentially a DataViewWebpart. If I remove the " ", like so, "(IF([Contingent Hire]=FALSE,))" from the calc column, the error goes away; however, the Expiration Date field does not
remain blank like I want it to.
Does anyone have any suggestions? (Below is the error generated when I open Designer and then try to open the Edit form for the corresponding list containing the calc column)
JackSki123Hi Jack,
Could you provide a screenshot about this issue?
As Dimitri suggested, you can install the update for your SharePoint Designer and check again.
And you can also check if you can display "NA" instead of " " in your calculated column per the following post.

Failed to get value of the "Attachments" column after my Edit Form customization in share point 2010
Hi,
I am trying to customize the Edit Form in sharepoint 2010 .After my customization when i click on save it is giving below error.
Failed
to get value of the "Attachments" column from the "Attachments" field type control. See details in log. Exception message: Guid should contain 32 digits with 4 dashes (xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx) "
Every thing works fine if i uncheck the Attachments property of the custom list.But i would need user to allow add attachments to the list.Could you
help me to resolve this issue.Hi,
It would be better if you could provide the steps in details about how you customize your Edit Form.
Anyway, you can take a look at the similar thread below, there is someone stuck with the similar issue before:

Post Migration from SP2010 -Attach File Button not working in any list new/edit forms
Hi,
We have migrated the SharePoint 2010 farm to Sharepoint 2013 on last saturday and we are noticing an interesting issue after the migration .
On any custom list on any web application ,When we create a new item,if we click on attach file button in the ribbon,nothing shows up on the screen.
In the browser Dev Tools its showing an error message as "Cannot read Property style of null".
This is happening on a javascript (form.debug.js) on line No : 5276
(document.getElementById("partAttachment")).style.display = "block";
There is no element rendered in html with id "partAttachment",which is causing this error to happen.
Solutions tried are
1) Modified the List Advanced Settings to disable and enable the attachments ,which did not work
2) Ran the Sharepoint Configuration wizard which did not fix
3)Tried reset the site definition for all pages in the site from site settings
4) Deactivated and activated all the activated features in the site collection
Its an OOB List New Form,no customizations has been done.
Similar error occurring with List Edit form as well
when you click on the List Item in the List default view when you navigate to the list and when you click on attach file,a popup dialog to upload attachments appearing,However its not working when you
navigate into the list item and tried to upload attachment.
Please help if any Solutions / thoughtsHi Christopher,
Thanks for your reply,

Editable Form: Reader Extensions
I created an editable form with a digital signature field using Adobe Acrobat Pro X on a Mac and posted that form online. I enabled Reader Extensions.
A user trying to fill out the form is consistently having problems where she can save the filled in form to her computer, but when she emails it, the content she entered in the fields is gone.
I downloaded the form and tested filling it out and emailing it, and it worked fine. I also had a colleague who only has Acrobat Reader test it by downloading the form, filling it out and emailing it to me, and the content was there.
Does anyone know what would be causing the issue for this one particular user? The form has a rapidly approaching deadline, so I would like to help her ASAP.
Thanks!This is a known issue when the file is filled-in in Preview instead of in Adobe Reader.

Editable forms typed in Acrobat display odd in Apple's Preview
I've been creating editable forms in Acrobat and typing information into those fields. The resulting PDFs look great in Acrobat (text is aligned, etc.), but when I open a PDF in Apple's Preview, all the text I typed in the editable fields is misaligned both onscreen and when I print the document.
My solution is to view the documents in Acrobat, but I'm worried about clients opening up the PDF when I send it to them and getting wonky results
Is this a known issue? Solutions?
Example of what I mean:.
PDF viewed in Acrobat - correct
http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=1CtqhC2b1MAEgYaxaQKNBQspRv9AFo
PDF viewed in Preview - incorrect, misaligned text
http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=19gesQJw88nbKyXryJq63Sv2Rcj1
Thanks!Non Acrobat (Adobe) readers will have difficulties viewing form files correctly. Since Preview, Skim and other PDF reader type do not have a form function built into them, they cannot distinguish the javascript field properly from other graphic elements on a page, hence the misalignment of the fields.
Your clients will have to use Acrobat Reader 7.0.9 and up to take full advantage of the form features.
Cheers. -
Interactive report's data not displaying on the edit form.
I have an interactive report that contains 3 rows. When I click on the edit button next to one of these rows, the edit form displays the data from that row.
But when I click the edit buttons next to the other 2 report rows, I get an error message that states: "ORA-01403: no data found. Error Unable to fetch row."
I do not see why this is happening. The PK of the table involved is "Request Date", so the report's "Link Column" region sends the value "Request Date" to the item P54_Request_Date in the form page.
Any idea why this would work correctly for one of the report rows but not for the other 2?
Clearly, each of the report rows must have a value for the PK, so why would the form not be able to find the same row that the report displays? Is it a problem with the form's "Fetch Row from" process?
Thanks.Hello:
Your problems are primarily related to in your choice of a 'Date' type as the PK for your table. The Automated Row Fetch (ARF) process uses a SQL statement similar to the one below to retrieve a record from a table select c1, c2, c3 ... from tab where PK_col = :page_item_containing_PK_value . This would work find if the the 'page_item_containing_PK_value' were of the DATE data type. However, all APEX binds are done using varchar2. This means that the 'page_containging_PK_value' needs to have the char representation of the date that matches the default date setting on your database. So the page-item needs to be something like 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI'. In your case the PK item is probably being set to 'DD-MON-YYYY' and therefore the fetch fails.
Now, for the 'issue with the :' in the character representation of the date.The link on the report page uses the standard APEX URL syntax to construct the link
f?p=App:Page:Session:Request:Debug:ClearCache:itemNames:itemValues:PrinterFriendly
As you can see, the ':' acts as the separator that delineates the components that make up the APEX URL. So, having a ':' in the 'itemValues' component will make the APEX engine treat whatever follows the ':' in the value passed as a delimiter as opposed to being part of the value being passed.

Pass Values to Edit Form thru Query String and Save in List
I have developed a custom Edit form from SharePoint Designer and I am passing values thru Query String as below;
http://<>/cli/acc/Lists/GIInfo/testEdit.aspx?ID=262&com=POD_Send
And, user supposed to save the form directly without changing the values came thru Query String as below.
Now, issue is, when user saves the form, values is not getting saved. It saves when we change the value in text box or when we do a text change event in form. Becasue data binding says Text Change even in data binding property.
__designer:bind="{ddwrt:DataBind('u',concat('ff22',$Pos),'Text','TextChanged','ID',ddwrt:EscapeDelims(string(@ID)),'@Actions')}"/>
Kindly guide me what is the issue, or correct approach to do that? I want to pass values to Edit Form thru Query string and save in List without changing those.

Custom New/Edit Forms not mobile supported
Hi All - I have created custom New/Edit Form in SPD. When I am trying to browse these in mobile view - It is giving error: The following error is not mobile supported: /lists/<listname>/<customnewform.aspx>
In PC view it opens the same URL properly with no issues.
Also,
In mobile view - When click on New Item opens Default OOTB New/Edit Forms and not the custom forms.
In PC View - Since I set CustomNew/EditForm as default. Click on New Item opens Custom forms.
How can I set the default - my custom form for mobile view?
Please suggest.
Regards,
Khushi
KhushiHi Khushi,
SharePoint will detect the device you are using to access SharePoint site and determine the view it displays. By default, you are using mobile view in a mobile device.
On mobile device, please go to site settings > switch to PC views, see if custom list view works.
If it works, we could disable mobile view by executing command :
disable-spfeature -identity MobilityRedirect -url
http://sp/sites/sitename
More options to deactivate mobile view:

Please also refer to how to customize mobile list view and form pages:
