Embedded files 'disappear' when viewing signed version of a document

Hello,
We've just come across a weird issue when viewing signed documents containing embedded files in Adobe Reader. If we use the 'Click to view this version' link in the Signatures panel, the embedded files are not shown in the Attachments panel, even though they are covered by the signature.
I've uploaded a sample document that illustrates the issue to Google Drive, here is the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1wk9toh5e7AZVBIb2V6a2lDMWM/view?usp=sharing
Thanks,
Ken

"View this version" comes with a disclaimer in the top bar that most functions are disabled in this view. If attachments are shown in the "Attachments" panel, then they can be opened
(otherwise what's the point to show them at all), and Acrobat uses a default app for this MIME type (i.e. Notepad for .txt files) to open it and has no control what the user could do there. User could definitely copy this file to a different location and this is akin to copying some of he PDF's content which is a prohibited operation in this view.
You can treat the disclaimer in the top bar as the Adobe official statement along with my read on what it means with respect to annotations.
IMO to "View this version" for the last signature when there are no changes after the file was signed is meaningless because both versions are identical. It is only when some changes were made after a signature that you may want/need to view the signed version.

  • Iphoto and itunes files disappeared when i upgraded to os mavericks. How can i access these files?

    iphoto and itunes files disappeared when i upgraded to os mavericks. How can i retrieve these files? Time machine is not opening my backup files on an external Lacie HD.

    Apple keeps books for a short time (used to be 40 days. I've not seen a recent time frame)
    What version did you have?
    Books do nor exist except in the iPhoto database so you can not "find" a book vista TM. You restore a previous library (be sure NOT to overwrite your current library) and switch to it

  • An issue whereby Photoshop .PSD files disappear when saved to a network file share

    It has been reported and reproduced by Support, an issue whereby Photoshop .PSD files disappear when they’re saved to a network file share.
    Upon initial investigations Support have observed the following behaviour when saving a Photoshop file.
    The document is initially saved as a new file on the file share.
    The original  .PSD file is deleted on the file share.
    The newly created file is renamed to the same name as the original file.
    An issue often arises when steps 1 and 2 complete however step 3 fails. When a file is reported by users as having disappeared, the new file created in step 1 can be renamed from  .00_ to the original *.PSD file name on the server as the *.00_ files are normally hidden by the desktop operating system. This allows people to see and open the file from both PC’s and MAC’s using AFP and SMB protocols.
    A related issue often reported by users is that they receive an error message “Could not save as” when trying to save a .PSD file. Troubleshooting the issue confirms that the user is able to save the file if they perform a “Save As” operation in Photoshop.
    From the reported problems and observations there is clearly an issue with how Photoshop performs a file save operation further exacerbated by the fact the process doesn’t fail safely.

    Sounds like you're hitting one of the known MacOS filesystem bugs - worst when working with SMB volumes.
    Apple knows about this, and we are pursuing workarounds to the OS bugs.
    Yeah, if you value your files, don't save directly to servers, especially on MacOS.

  • Folio images disappear when viewed in content viewer

    Hi, I am currently having a problem with most of the pdf images in the folio disappearing when viewed in content viewer on the iPad.
    I'm using Adobe CS5.5 in layouting the folio.
    Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Thanks.

    If the images are visible when previewing through Folio Preview option, try reinstalling Folio producer tools and Folio builder Panel and reinstall Adobe content viewer. That might fix this.

  • Pages is sending my documents in docx format, but windows unable to open them. They arrive blank or can only be read as a single line at a time. When view prior to sending the document is divided with black lines after each sentence.

    Pages is sending my documents in docx format, but windows unable to open them. They arrive blank or can only be read as a single line at a time. When viewed prior to sending, the document is divided with black lines after each sentence.

    Windows will only be able to open these if you have Word 2007+. Older versions of Word, for example Word 2003 would require a compatibility pack.
    Perhaps you can try 'Saving As' a different file type instead?

  • Import warning when sending Word version of Pages document as attachment in Mail

    when sending Word version of Pages document in email, says character borders not supported so were removed, so email didn't have all of the text of the Pages document

    Not that I know of. Would be less practical than the option coming from Pages -- everyone using Pages probably has some default email client, but far from everyone using Mail would have iWorks and Pages. So building in the feature to Mail not so practical.

  • Files disappear when creating a new folder

    I'm new to mac....got a macbook this week. I'm in Iraq so I have very limited access to anything. No internet for my mac at the moment...so I can't update even if there are ones. I assume I have the currenct version of everything though. The question...
    While switching over my files I decided to reorganize them. I'm working on my external HD and creating many new folders for all my files. On numerous occasions now (4) I have created a new file the standard way...right click>new>file...then named it. On these occasions I have done this it has renamed the previous file I had worked in (even though it was not selected) and then the contents of the file disappeared. This leaves me with the new file I created and another identical file of the same name...now with nothing in it. Some of my files I have backed up, but the last one deleted many videos that I didn't. Happens randomly at no particular time. If I select the file and view its contents often it will briefly change its name back to the original name, but still nothing in it. Then next selection of anything will switch it back. Have not been able to fine the files anywhere. Tired of losing my files. Any ideas??? Thanks.

    Hi Craig and Welcome to Apple Discussions....
    First of all, thank you for all you are doing. It's so appreciated! Just be safe and come home soon.
    Now... I have a feeling your external hard drive is the culprit. Read here:
    Changing the names of items
    You can easily change the name of a file, folder, or disk on your computer.
    IMPORTANT: To avoid problems using Mac OS X or applications on your computer, don't move or change the names of folders that came with your system (such as the Library folder or your home). You should also not change the names of applications or items associated with specific applications. If you accidentally change the name of an installed item and you experience problems, you can change the name back.
    Locate the item you want to rename on your desktop or in a Finder window.
    Click the item to select it, then click the name. The name is highlighted and you will be able to edit it.
    Type the new name and press Return.
    Some document names have a file extension, such as ".txt" or ".jpg." If you change the name of a file and delete the extension, some applications may no longer recognize the file. To ensure the file can be recognized by the application that created it, change only the part of the name that comes before the extension, or open the file using the appropriate application, then save the file with a new name.
    You cannot change the name of an item in the Finder window's sidebar. You must locate the item on your desktop or in a Finder window to highlight and change the name.
    And more here:
    Getting information about files and folders
    You can view and modify information about files, applications, and volumes in the Info window. This information can include:
    Comments that Spotlight can search on
    Who can view and modify the item.
    The applications that can open it.
    Metadata that describes a file's contents and how it was created. For example, a photo's Info window may contain the picture's dimensions, exposure time, and the make and model of the camera.
    To see information for one or more items, select the items and choose File > Get Info. An Info window opens for each selected item.
    To see a summary of information about several items, select the items then hold down the Control key as you choose File > Get Summary Info. A window summarizes information on all selected items, including their total size.
    To see information about each item as you select it, select one of the items then hold down the Option key as you choose File > Show Inspector. An Inspector window displays information on the selected item. When you select another item, the Inspector's contents are replaced with information on that item.
    I realize that's a lot to digest and your time might be limited. This is something that only takes a few minutes and might help immediately.
    Go to MacintoshHD/Applications/Utilities and locae Disk Utility. Launch DU, select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left and then click: Repair Disk Permissions. Depending on the size of your drive, it should only take a few minutes. When it's finished, Quit Disk Utility from the Menu.
    Here's how to find out exactly which Mac OS you are running. Click the Apple logo top left of your screen then click, About This Mac. A pane will open. Just under "Mac OS X" will be the version number. ie., 10.4.x
    Reboot your MacBook and see if this helps.... I'm retired and have time... if you need one on one help e-mail me: [email protected]
    It's the least I can do

  • Why do windows source directory files disappear when their folder is added to iTunes?

    I just got a new Windows 8 computer and installed iTunes. I then copied all of my music to my new computer from the old one into a similar \data\music directory organized by artist and album.
    On the old computer (XP)when I add a folder from \data\music to itunes the source album music files remain inplace.
    On the new computer (W8) when I add a folder from \data\music to itunes the source album music files disappear.
    However, although the album directory is empty, the "parent MUSIC directory" hasn't changed in size. Is iTunes encrypting the source files? Itunes Help does have anything on this happening.
    How do I access my source files if I want to do something with them?
    This is scary stuff. Luckily I still have a copy on my old computer.
    Any clarification on this would really be appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Here are typical layouts for the iTunes folders:
    iTunes 11 also adds a Home Videos folder...
    Your library is obviously in the newer layout, the designated media folder (red outline) is C:\Data\Music and the option Keep iTunes Media folder organized is enabled, so music goes in C:\Data\Music\Music\<Artist>\<Album> etc.
    If you're interested you could probably "normaiize" your library with a few carefully chosen steps...

  • Why do my pls files disappear when doubleclicked?

    Someone asked me how to make an alias of a streaming radio station that they could just click, have it open iTunes and play.
    While experimenting I found I could drag the radio station off the iTunes playlist to the desktop and it would create a URL. Doubleclicking the URL usually opened a browser, went to the site and downloaded a .pls file to the desktop. Doubleclicking that file opened iTunes and started playing the station.
    Fine, I thought, I'll just rename the .pls file and use that as an alias to quickly get to the station. But alas, the .pls file disappears from the desktop once clicked, even if renamed and/or put into a folder.
    I explained what I did to the person who originally asked and they were able to rename the files and not have them disappear on their Mac like mine did. Both of us are using 10.4.11.
    Can anyone shed some light on this?

    Try showing the import options and make sure the crop option you want to use is one that is not grayed out.

  • Stroke/Border Disappears When Viewing on HTML File

    Hello -
    I am using Flash CS5.5. 
    I am working on Flash banners and I want to place a 1 pixel stroke/border around each banner.
    I did the usual, created a new layer, used the rectangle tool, put in the correct stroke number (1 pixel), matched the size to the banner and aligned it correctly, etc.  The stroke is the exact dimensions of the banner/movie and the stroke is on the top layer.
    When I Preview/Test the banners within Flash the stroke/border looks fine.  However, after I publish and I view the published SWF and also separately on a HTML page, the border/stroke does not show up on the right side and on the bottom.
    If I change the stroke to 2 pixels (from 1 pixel), then the right side shows up but the bottom still does not.
    Any ideas why this is happening? 
    Thanks!!!

    Well I found the answer here:  http://furizu.net/blog/2009/08/the-myth-about-flash-border/#more-312
    Not sure why it has to be done this way but it works.  If anyone else has other solutions I am still interested.
    Thanks

  • Objects in InDesign files disappear when exported to PDF (CS5.5)

    I have some text that was created to outlines, filled and has a drop shadow applied. When I export the document to pdf, part of the text (the fill) disappears, and all I get is the drop shadow. I tried changing to a non-spot color, I tried removing all attributes, and nothing seems to work! I also tried copying that artwork to the clipboard and pasting it into an Illustrator file (says it is too big to fit the pasteboard, which I verified sizes - and it should fit. I tried copying the paths and pasting them in Photoshop as a smart object... no luck either. What am I missing? Thanks in advance for any help!

    FYI - in the "Adobe InDesign Component Infirmation" dialogue box I learned all kinds of info - are you looking for something in particular? I learned that the document was created in InDesign version 7.0.4.553 (which is what I think I was using before I updated my InDesign earlier today)
    There aren't particular obvious signs, no.
    Generally at this point the right way to track this down is to work with a copy of the document, and delete pages or objects in the document until you find the cause of the problem. Then look at it closely, perhaps look at the IDML file, or make it available so we can look at it.
    It sounds like you have a workaround, but if you have time, it might worth trying to find the real problem.

  • Pages disappear when viewing and printing

    On our Windows 7 Professional (Service Pack 1) 64-bit computer, using the Reader application directly (not through a browser), we have been frustrated with blank pages appearing while viewing and printing.
    This happens in Adobe Reader 9.5.0, 9.5.3, and 11.0.06.  (We had been experiencing these problems with 9.5.3, so uninstalled and installed 9.5.0, then updated to 11.0.06.  Same problem appears in all versions, but now is exceptionally bad in 11.0.06.   At one time we had updated to Reader 10, but reverted to Reader 9 because Reader 10 would not center pages correctly when printed, especially when Fit to Page was used.)
    When we open a file, pages initially display correctly.  But when we begin to scroll back and forth from page to page, the page images start disappearing. When we print, pages may display correctly just before the print button is pressed, and then may disappear after pressing the print button. If it disappears before the print function has completed, blank pages are output.   If a multi page document, the first few pages may print correctly then blank pages. 
    Once a page goes blank while viewing or printing, it does not restore.  One must close the PDF file and open it again.
    We have over 200 documents of 30 to 50 pages each, which are printed on a frequent basis and then bound.  It is extremely annoying and costly to have blank pages output when there should be info on the page.    We have been printing these documents for eight years.  Two years ago started using a brand new Windows 7 computer for printing PDF files, but the blank page issue started surfacing about 6 to 9 months ago and is getting more frequent.

    The system has 4GB of memory.  The processor is Intel Core i5 - 2400.
    As per your suggestion, I updated the driver for the integrated graphics
    card (Intel Graphics HD 2000).  The new driver is dated January 2014.  The
    old driver was dated June 2011.
    I tried to replicate the blank pages situation, and none went blank.   Will
    continue to test over the next week or so, but this looks very promising.
    Many, many thanks, Pat!

  • Files locked when viewed on Mac, not locked on PC.

    I'm creating files on a PC that are not locked, yet when I view them through the network, SOME of them are labeled as "locked" in Get Info and I have to go through the minor task of holding down OPTION when emptying the trash if I use the Mac to delete them.
    Small annoyance, but wondering why this is the case? Does anyone happen to know why?

  • File disappears when trying to export with "share" in FCP X...

    I have FCP 10.1.3 running on a macbook pro running 10.9.4; attached to an external 8 tb drive with over 6 tb of free space.
    When I try to export a project using "share," the file will start to save to my destination, but then just disappear at exactly the 50% mark. I've shared previous versions of the same file with no problem, and I have enough space to hold the file. I've tried restarting the app and the computer; I tried saving to an external drive and to my hard drive; the file will simply disappear from either destination at 50%.

    This is weird. Before we proceed with other possible tests, did you try this with just one project, or with other as well? If just this one, create a new library, a new small test project and export that. Does it work? If it does, then the problem may me in the specific project or library.
    A few other ideas:
    1) Delete application preferences (almost always the first thing to try, as corrupt preferences have been known to cause strange malfunctions). Hold down the command and option keys while starting the application and confirm the deletion of preferences when asked.
    Note: deleting preferences does not delete the application nor your media and libraries
    2) Open the Console application (it is in /Applications/Utilities) and look for messages that appear around the time the export fails.
    3) Try running the program from a pristine new user account and see if it exports correctly a small project there
