Filling out form and suddenly it closes

I created a form using LiveCycle ES. The purpose is for members of our staff to simply access the blank form on our network, fill it in, print it out and submit to the office. However, many of our staff members are saying that they get about half way through the form and suddenly it just closes. Another issue is one particular text field goes blank after you tab to the next field.
Any ideas???

I've read the article at the website provided. Can you provide specifics on what to add where. I'm working in Adobe Designer 7.0...are the changes to be made there or in the Adobe Prof 7.0 for the Client?

You could try opening the file in Adobe Reader, then from the Comments pane use the 'Add Text Comments' tool.

How to change security so its locked but can fill out forms and then save?

Hey there, i want to know how to make a PDF document locked (so you can't change anything) but you can fill out the forms and them save then with the edits in the forms done? Is there anyway to do this? Or do i need to take some settings off. So far I have made it so someone can write int he box, but then they can't change the edits at all.
Thanks in advance.

Create your form.
go to advanced menu
choose the item about Reader Rights
when open set what you want Reader to be allowed to do.
Once set and saved the can fillout, save, email but they can not change the actual form itself just the contents they added.
Not there is a cap of 500 hundred instances per different PDF.

Newbie - Adobe 7 Prof - How do you automatically clear fields after filling out form and printing

A form housed in a database displayed on the web, allows the user to open, fill out some information and then print using the "Print button". How can I have the form automatically reset the fields to blank after the form is no longer being viewed on the screen or even after printing? If user goes back to the same form later without rebooting or cacheing, the information that was entered is still there. I'm new to this and have very little scripting experience. Your help would be VERY appreciated.

How to save PDF with fields so someone can fill out form and send it to printer

Using Adobe Acrobat X for Mac, I built a pdf template with fields for
sending an assortment of Business Card files to the printer to print.
How do I save the file so my brother/client can start typing in different
names, job titles, and contact info and send them to a printer.
Thanks,

Acrobat Pro 7, Adobe Reader 8, and Filled out forms

My head is spinning with all the "Acrobat features" that seem to be in Acrobat, but actually aren't. At least not in the version I always seem to have. I wish Adobe would be more diligent in explaining what features are are in which version and what features are in the Windows version that aren't in the Mac version.
I'll do a search for a particular question. Get an answer of Yes, Acrobat can do that. Only to find out (through trial and error and usually not the article I'm reading) that I can't do what I what I want in the version I have.
To my question: We are using Acrobat 7 (CS2) to make forms for people to fill out and return to us. The people filling out the forms will mostly be in Adobe Reader 8.
How can we get those folks to send us the filled out form? I have yet to get that to work. I have Reader 8 on my machine and when I use the Submit Button method, Reader tells me SendMail can't recognize my mail client, but then gives me no way of fixing that? Where are SendMail preferences? SendMail isn't even in the Help menu!
Any insight would be appreciated...

There is a New feature in Acrobat 8, that allows usage rights (you have to choose in tools menu, to allow it.
For small companies and Non-Profits, Adobe threw us a Bone. As long as as you receive no more than 500 respondents you can do this without breaking the EULA. (License agreement).
What you do is create your form make sure you have perfected and needs no changes. then turn on this item in Tools menu to allow Fill out and email. Then post to a website or send individually to no more than 500 people by email. They can fill out the form save the changes then send back.
However when you do this any person using Acrobat Pro 7 or Acrobat 8, or Reader 7 or 8 can do this. doesn't work bellow version 7. But Acrobat 8 is the only one (so far Than can create these.
If you make a mistake in the form and find it after turning usage rights on you have to save a copy with rights turn of and make your changes then go through procedure again.

Problems with filling out/going back and editing filled out information and signing forms

Users cannot fully fill out, edit and save forms--
the forms were set up in InDesign CS6, then edited in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 for all the form info and after that was set up the forms were saved as extended pdfs to allow adobe reader users to fill them out and sign.
The users are having all kinds of issues with the forms and its been difficult to pin point the exact cause.
Here are 2 errors:
This document enabled extended features in Adobe reader. This document has been changed since it was created and use of extended features is no longer available. Please contact the author for the original version of this document.
The security settings on this document prevent adding text and/or placing a signature on it from Adobe Reader. To fill out and sign this document you need to print it out.
---I've checked the security on the form and there is no security not allowing them to fill it out and I believe that originally they were able to but the form was saved and then they went back and were unable to edit it. I need to know if its something I need to do on my end or an instruction I need to give to them--steps to filling out and saving programs vesions to use etc..
sorry for some of the holes in the info. the form was created for a client and they sent it out to their employees so I do not have direct contact with the people having the issues just two screenshots, and I have not been able to find an answer that works--this is what I thought would help but it didnt:
It should solve the signature/adding text issue—From : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/987256
Your user should go to Extended pane in Reader to apply a digital signature to the Reader extended PDF.
The user is probably trying to use the Sign pane in Reader which has some options disabled according to the document permissions. The new Sign pane in Reader is an integration with Adobe EchoSign service in the sense that it enables an end user to fill-up documents, electronically sign and then send a PDF document, without having the need to print them. The Sign pane provides two options to the user:
1 - Fill and Sign: Here the user can place text using 'Add Text'. Users can add arbitrary text to a PDF, eg. in documents where Reader cannot interact with the document even though the document looks like a form, in forms where user cannot save the filled-up form. In such cases the only option a user has is to print the form, fill it and then fax or fedex the filled up document to the author or scan it and send it electronically. Using the Sign pane in Reader, a user can add text and also electronically sign the document (this is not the same as digital signature) using an image of their signature. He can create a 'signature' from a scanned paper which has user's handwritten signature and place it on the PDF.
2 - Send for Signature: Here the user is sent to EchoSign for collecting signatures from others.

You will get that first message when the document has been changed in a way that invalidates the internal digital signature that's applied when a document is Reader-enabled. Certain changes are allowed (e.g., filling fields, commenting, signing) and will not invalidate the signature, but others are not. The exact cause of the change is often hard to track down, but it can be due to font problems, some type of file corruption, or something that Acrobat/Reader attempts to correct when the file is opened/saved. You will also get the message if the users system time is not correct and is currently set to some time before the document was Reader-enabled. It seems best to use the most recent version of Acrobat to enabled the documents and recent versions of Reader to work with them.
It problem is probably not related to the user using anything in the Sign pane.

If I want to fill out estimates and have created a fill and sign form;

If I want to fill out estimates and have created a fill and sign form; do I have to access formscentral everytime or is there a way to save the fill and sign form that is readable on my tablet?

The clouds you see next to your music on the device and iCloud are two different things. When your music is not on your device it is in iTunes in the Cloud. Not the same thing as iCloud which is used to sync information between devices and house backups of your device contents. So that little cloud you see next to your songs is telling you that the music is not on your device. That's why it is giving you the message - because when you click on it, it is attempting to download it to your device.
What may have happened is when you imported your photos to the PC, you may have sync'd your device via iTunes, and you did not have the Sync Music option checked in your device Profile screen.
Hook up your device to your PC and open iTunes. Make sure the sidebar is showing (Control+S if you cannot see the sidebar with Devices listed), and click on your device to open the Device Profile screens to the right. Click on the Music tab, and make sure that the Sync All Music or Sync Selected Music box is checked. If you have Sync Selected Music checked, then below that, make sure you check all music that you want on your device. Then click on SYNC at the bottom (or APPLY).
Once you have successfully sync'd your music to your device, you will no longer see the cloud next to the songs, and you also will no longer get a message since you will have the songs physically on your device and not in iTunes in the Cloud.
Cheers,

Assuming that you can send email on the iPad, Maybe something is corrupt in Safari that is causing this. Try clearing Safari and see if the sites will accept your email address.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

I am low on the techy food chain and need help. Why does my g-mail address get rejected when I fill out forms on line. I do not have this problem with Safari :(

When filling out forms or needing to give my g-mail address on Firefox, my address is always rejected. It comes up as an non valid address. I then have to switch to Safari to complete all forms. :(

You don't download apps from the iTunes app store with Safari.

Can no longer fill out form--what happened?

I have an important form saved on my computer that had a typo in it, so I downloaded the free trial of Adobe Acrobat Pro X, corrected the typo, then deleted the free trial. However, when I open the form with Adobe Reader I can no longer fill out the form. I was able to fill out the form just fine before I edited it with the free trial of Pro X. Is there any way I can fix this? I did not change any settings (as far as I know), I only corrected a typo in the form and now I am having the problem of no longer being able to fill it out. I appreciate any help, the form is for an important job application.

If the document was Reader-enabled so that Reader was able to save the filled-in form, and you used Acrobat to make changes to the text on a page (as opposed to text in a form field), the usage rights were removed. The modified document will have to be Reader-enabled, which is done with Acrobat.

FF 29.0.1 bug - filled-out-forms

Hi, ever since I started using Firefox, I'd often have tabs already-open with already-filled-out-forms that would, every single day without fail, have my data retained (I'd fill out the form, hit the Back button, and the data would still be seen in the form. Every morning, I'd open the same tabs with the same data and the tabs would have my data prepopulated in the forms as I left it the day before). This was very important because I do some activity every morning and don't want to have to fill out my forms on a daily basis.
The 29.0.1 upgrade this weekend broke the preservation of this data. Now, I have to manually fill out the forms again. I do like the UI and UX upgrades, but why is it that this critical "feature" to me has been removed? The preservation of data was a paramount part of the Firefox experience for me.
If this is intended behavior, I'd like to hear it. If this is not intended behavior, I look forward to 29.0.2 fixing the issue. It was never a problem in versions 15+ up until 29.0, but 29.0.1 is a game changer for me.
(And by the way, I know there are ways around it, but having to manually click on autocomplete buttons or use form filler tools defeats the purpose of this already existing up until this version.)

tamarsaw, Yes. That or something similar is easy to do. I can understand you would rather just use Firefox than have to try troubleshooting it but the effort and results should pay off in the longer term.
It is just a matter of transferring and overwriting files in the new profile. It is also possibly worth keeping backup copies maybe put a spare copy somewhere safe such as the Desktop or Documents.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox#Suggested_profile_contents_to_transfer
Remember you could for instance have the current profile retained for historic reasons. A totally clean profle for testing purposes, and a clean profile but with current open tabs and history/bookmarks.
The new sync is worth using that will keep backups on a server. However it has sometimes been unreliable and troublesome in the past it would be wise not to become over-reliant and rely on it totally for anything very important. When you start Firefox from the profile manager you choose the profile to use. Or you have icons/shortcuts that use specific profiles
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Using_multiple_profiles_-_Firefox
Open Tabs
The recently opened tabs can be kept. That is the file '''''sessionstore.js'''''
* see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Sessionstore.js
Firefox does itself try to keep a backup copy of those sometimes but the system may not always be 100% reliable.
History
This is kept in the same database as the Bookmarks. The file is '''''places'sqlite''''' The bookmarks do have separate backups even without you making manual bookmarks. The History does not have backups.
* see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Places.sqlite
Sync & Firefox Accounts (FxA)
The new Firefox Accounts from Firefox29 will backup opentabs and History to the server, AND allow you to use those backups even if you only have a single machine or even stop using one machine and register another single machine. The old sync was not designed to be used as a backup or with single devices.

Can I save a filled out form in adobe reader

How do I save a filled out form in adobe reader?

When you fill out a filled out form in Adobe Reader, it is saved automatically when you quit the app (unless you crash). You could email the filled form, and it will open correctly filled out on Reader or Acrobat on Mac or Windows. (Warning: It may not look like it got filled out if you view it in Mail, Dropbox, or another iOS app, but it will appear correctly in Reader or Acrobat.)

Filling in Forms and Saving in Acrobat Reader

Hi, i have created form fields in a PDF document created in Acrobat 8, but when i open the document in Reader, it will not allow me to save the file with the form filled out, it will oly allow a blank document to be saved. Is there a way around this so that anyone opening the documet in reader can save the filled out form? There is no security setting and comments are NOT enabled. Any insight into this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
t

If you're using Acrobat 8 Pro, you can Reader-enable the document, which allows Reader to save a filled-in form. In Acrobat 9, the menu item to do this is "Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader", but I think it was something different in Acrobat 8. Check Acrobat's Help doc if you can't find it.

Acrobat Pro 9 Mac**Making a pdf fill-out form non-editable when it is completed.

HELP!!
If anyone out there can help me I would greatly appreciate it.
I see the forums are with LifeCycle but I need direction for the mac version of acrobat pro.
I am creating a fill-out pdf form for distribution. I would like the person who receives the fill out form to complete the form,
and click a "lock all fields" button or "form completed" button that will make all form fields lock/ non editable when emailed back to me.
Where would I put this script? Can someone give me step by step direction for this button?
I am a novice to this. I don't know how to run a javascript for the button or what is needed to get this completed.
Can someone please help me.
Thank you so much-
Katy

Maybe this will do the trick...
