FDF Form won't open

I have a link created in DreamWeaver that directs the public
to a pdf file. Once the form is completed and the hit the submit
button it is then sent via email in the fdf format. I have one user
you can not open the attachments once they have received the email.
Adobe will open up and then stop, the form will never appear.
Can anyone help me??

It's been down since at least 6:30am Pacific, which means Adobe has now wasted an entire workday for many of us that rely on their system. So, since you don't even have "a good handle on the situation" on this, I guess I can just scratch this day and go home early. Guess that planned Monday launch of the 3 last forms for an event I'm running in June gets a nice April "Rain Delay." Worst part about this too is it's not just today that's a loss, I can't even process any form data submitted over the weekend, so I'm effectively 3 days behind now. Luckily, my event is still 6 weeks away (though the dealines for submitting registrations and such are a month or less)... I feel really bad for people that are on end of April or May 1st deadlines - good luck to you guys.
Really Adobe, if you want us to work on line / in the cloud and rely on you to keep our customer's data and be able to access it when WE need it, this is a huge failure on your part. This isn't some 15 or 30 minute hiccup, this is effectively a full wasted day for everyone on the East/Central time zones. A group is running a sister event to mine next year, and has requested info on how we have done what we have - unfortunately for Adobe, I can NOT in good faith recommend they use this unreliable service. This is not the first time forms (or CC) has failed me in the last 6 months, but it HAS been the worst occurance in the last 6 months. "Happy" to hear that you understand how inconvenient this is, but that and a dollar get's me a cup of coffee. I need my customers to be able to submit their data to get MY money and run my event, and I expect many are in the same situation - what's your solution to that loss?

Form won't open - error message

One of my forms won't open saying its either a momentary problem with Acrobat or a connetion error on my end. I am able to open other forms and I am connected to the internet. I have people who need to use this form asap in another location and they aren't able to open the link either. Can anyone provide a clue to the issue?
Thanks.

Infopath form won't open from a URL, opens fine from form library.

I have built a request process using SharePoint 2007 and InfoPath 2010 and a custom workflow designed in SPD.
Everything works perfectly fine within the form library. However, I would prefer not to have my requestors go to the form library so I created a link to the form template.
The issue is that when i try the URL to the form template, the form opens but throws an error that it cannot retrieve data for the form. This process is and will only be used internally, so
I am having trouble understanding why this is happening.
Error message (company names substituted in URL).
Form template URL:
http://security.home.mycompany.com/teams/activedirectory/PSAR/PSARRequests/Forms/template.xsn
Error returned when opening form.
The query cannot be run for the following DataObject: Access Requestors (An SP List of users)
The SOAP response indicates that an error occurred:
Server did not recognize the value of HTTP Header SOAPAction: http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/GetObjectIdFromUrl.
The query cannot be run for the following DataObject: RetrieveIDs (A query to retrieve list item ID)
The SOAP response indicates that an error occurred:
Server did not recognize the value of HTTP Header SOAPAction: http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/GetObjectIdFromUrl.
The query cannot be run for the following DataObject: Workflow History (A query to retrieve workflow data)
The SOAP response indicates that an error occurred:
Server did not recognize the value of HTTP Header SOAPAction: http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/GetObjectIdFromUrl.
From what i have seen in the past, i would have expected a security pop up before the form opened. I am thinking this may be part of the problem.
Any advice would be appreciated.

This filler or the client, I don't think it makes much difference. What is puzzling me and is the root of my initial question: Everything works perfectly fine if the user (requestor) goes
to the SharePoint site opens the form library and click on the "New" button. The form opens in the InfoPath client and loads the data connections without issue. The entire process works fine from here and there is no issue.
This issue is, if I send any of the users a direct link to the form template, it opens in the (InfoPath) client as it is supposed to, but will not load the data connection. I get the error
messages stated in my original question stated above. Additionally, I have the option selected to store the data in the form. Once I suppress the error message, the data is not in the form template. There is no problem opening the form, just loading the data
connection.
I would like to find a solution to this although it is not tragic if I don't. I would rather not have the users (requestors) going directly to the form library if I can help it. It seems strange
to me that this doesn't work because all the users are in the same environment as the SharePoint site. It is only used internally by authenticated users.

After iTunes update, email won't send, only receive. Email setup form won't open all the way.

What can I do to get the add email form to open all the way. It won't scroll down enough to let me enter outgoing mail server information. When I forced it by hitting the enter button and blindly fill in each box, it seemed to work; but when I checked my email, I found that I could receive mail but mail wouldn't send. It kept telling me I have the wrong user name or password, and of course I don't. This only started after the latest iTunes upgrade.
The other problem is that I need to set it up as a pop account and the only way I can get that option instead of iMap is to fool it by typing in one wrong letter on my email which I correct when the page comes up giving me both iMap and Pop options.
Anyone else having this scroll problem. It's only on my iPad 2 and no on my iPhone of iPod touch

Form won't open in Acrobat X Pro, XI Pro or Reader XI

I am creating a lengthy for which is now 25 pages. I can work on the form in LiveCycle Designer ES3. However, we cannot open the form in Acrobat X Pro, XI Pro or Reader XI. Any thoughts on why this could be happening? Are there things I can look for in LiveCycle to fix this issue?
Thanks,
MDawn

Thanks for your quick response. There is no error message displayed. The round circle spins and the pdf never opens. It also happens in the Preview PDF tab within LiveCycle. I resaved the form and deleted a number of pages and the smaller version works fine. Can an interactive form be too large? Could that be my problem?
I was working on page 20 of 25 pages and I had to End the Program to get out of trying to Preview the form. I'm wondering if something was corrupted.
Thanks,
MDawn

Form won't open in Reader

I just created a new form in LiveCycle and now many people are having problems opening it in Reader. It works just fine for me and others in my office, but when I send it out to students most of them are getting an error message. I've designed forms before and never run into an issue. Help!

Yes...it's the please wait message. Here's the full thing.
"Please wait...

If they click on the file to open it why wouldn't it open in Reader automatically if they have Reader installed? I had my husband try earlier and he got the same message on our home computer that definitely has Reader.

InfoPath form won't open in browser

I've been searching for hours for a solution but I can't get it right..
I've a form library with InfoPath 2010 forms. The forms are browser enabled. Library settings -> display form as webpage.
But when users click on the form, Internet Explorer asks them to open or save the file. He wants to open the form in InfoPath, but I want it to show in the browser!
When I investigate the link, I found this: OpenIn=PreferClient
How can I force to open the forms in the browser?

Sorry, I missed that sentence somehow. :)
In form options of the Form Template XSN itself, under Compatibility make sure Web Browser Form is selected as Form Type.
Aside from that puzzling. If no other option can be found, script to change the property in the link would be a hack option.
I checked a form library I have here and there is no OpenIn property at all.
Can I just confirm you're opening pre-filled forms not creating new ones with this link?

Form won't open until SQL Plus finishes querying

We have Dev.6 Forms patch 5a, NT, Oracle 8.0.5.2.1. If I run a query such as select count(*) from a large table and while this is running I run a form from within form builder the runtime of the form will not come up until SQL PLUS 8.0.5.0.0 returns the result of the count(*). The form has no relation what so ever to the base table in the form.
Any ideas why this is so?

Thanks for the suggestions but I don't think I explained the situation correctly.
In sql Plus i write a statement select count(*) from table A in database TEST which would take about 1 minute.
In Forms I am connected to another database TEST2 which is totally unrelated to the database with select running above. The form is a welcome form with a menu and no base tables. When I hit the run button within the form the runtime will not show up until the SQL PLUS session (on another database) has returned its results.
This is NOT normal behaviour, has anyone else experienced this. I only have Developer 6 deployment install and only Net8.
I can open other sessions using TOAD while SQL PLUS is running.
Baffled....

I pay monthly for the cloud. I am trying to get the Adobe XI so I can make a fillable form. It won't open on my computer. Please help.

I am a cloud customer and pay for the service monthly. I am trying to create a fillable form. No luck. The Adobe XI won't open. I need some help. Thanks

Hi Olivia,
What happens when you try to open Acrobat?
I checked your account; it looks like there may have been a hangup with the order processing. Please Contact Customer Care so that an agent can help you get that straightened out. I suspect that may be why you're unable to open Acrobat.
Best,
Sara

PDF won't open in FireFox/IE on XP SP3 if Rdr9.3x and Acrobat 6.06

I've been fighting this for a few days. The platform is a windows XP SP3 domain client with Acrobat 6.0.6 and Acrobat Reader 9. (The platform was recently re-installed from scratch owing to malware infestation and is now "pristine".)
I discovered that if I install Acrobat Reader 8 PRIOR to installing Reader 9, PDF files will open in the browser windows. BUT, if Reader 8 is NOT installed prior to Reader 9, the PDF file won't open and a commonly reported error message occurs.
FireFox shows that when the viable installation sequence (as above) is followed, the Adobe Acrobat Plugins installed include support for mime types: pdf, vnd.adobe.pdfxml, vnd.adobe.x-mars, vnd.fdf, vnd.adobe.xfdf, vnd.adobe.xdp+xml, and vnd.adobe.xfd+xml. If Reader 8 is NOT installed prior to Reader 9, only the pdf mime type.
The PDFs that were the immediate cause of all this trouble were PDF forms with blanks to fill-in -- if that makes a difference.
The symptoms are reproducible.
Also, if you have Reader 9 installed and are experiencing this problem, simply uninstall it, install Reader 8, then install Reader 9. The required MIME type support seems to be supplied by the Reader 8 installation and stays around when Reader 9 is installed.
Hope this helps some folks.

Unable to load the following resource: Error: too many columns- form won't

Hi ..
Can you please suggest on the following error, which i am facing the issue while opening data form in Hyperion Planning 11.1.1.4 .
Unable to load the following resource: Error: too many columns- form won't
Regards,
Vasu

It is something around 256 if I am not mistaken, I dread to think what a form with 700 columns is like to work with.

Itunes won't open after software upgrade

I just upgraded itunes form version 4.x to version 6. on my girlfriends windows laptop.
Now itunes won't open past the licence agreement.
Actually itunes quits before i can agree to the licence agreement.
I looked at this article. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=42963
this didn't resolve the issue.
When itunes quits there are no error messages.
Any ideas
Thanks

hi Matthew!
Actually itunes quits before i can agree to the licence agreement.
are you getting absolutely no error messages whatsover? are you seeing similar behavior when you try to launch your QuickTime?
if so, check for a Qoologic adware infestation on your PC. the free trial version of Ewido has been catching and killing that for most folks:
