Having Problems Seeing your LiveCycle Designer Forms on the iPAD Adobe Reader App?

I'm not a computer wize and very new to Adobe and creating forms with LiveCycle. So apologize to anyone that reads this and says "duh", but hopefully it will be helpful to someone out there who is struggling like I was.
First off - the IPad will will definitely be able to view your livecycle forms regardless of what anyone else says! These were my steps;
1. Create form in LiveCycle Designer.
2. When you save, select "save as"
3. When the dialogue box opens, and you are creating the name of what you are going to call your file, below you will see a drop down box labeled "Save As Type". Make sure you switch the file type to "Adobe Static PDF Form (*.pdf)"
And that's it!
Here is another tip for a user like me:)
I need to create a form to post to a website, where people fill it in and save it to their computers. I found that when I just saved the form straight from LiveCycle Designer and then posted, some of the free adobe versions wouldn't let the user fill it in. So this is what I did,
1. Follow the first 3 steps I listed above.
2. Next open Adobe (the full version) not the reader. I have Adobe X.
3. Got to "Save As". It will give you a bunch of options. Select "Reader Extended PDF" and then "Enable Additional Features"
Add that should be it!
One more tip for the average to low level user. We had some feedback that when someone open my form in the iPad app. they were not able to fill it in. They could, but what they didn't realize was they needed to select the icon at the top that is a little picture of a speech bubble and pencile.

Yup. I filled in the form and made a bunch of comments, closed the app and everything I had filled in on the form was still there. I also tried emailing the filled in form to myself and opening it. The comments and filled in sections don't appear when I open it in my email viewer, but as long as I open it in the adobe app everything is still there.
Now all I have to do is to convince my web guy not to be mad when I Tell him he has to repost all my files (JK) ;)

Help help...Making existing livecycle fillable form mobile(ios/android adobe reader) compitible

Hello Everyone,
I am new to livecycle designer. I have a fillable pdf form(having almost all the field types, dynamic image uploads, and javascripts). I don't know if it is possible to have fillable form for mobile devices( for iPhone,ipad,Android).
Does any one have idea how can I make my existing pdf form compatible with mobile devices??
Thank you all,
Jay

Hi Jay Lakhani,
You will not be able to use the form on mobile devices unless it is rendered in HTML format.
If you want your XFA forms to run on mobile devices, you need to do the following:
- Create a HTML render profile in CRX. A default profile comes with LC installation. Check this for more details on this (http://helpx.adobe.com/livecycle/help/mobile-forms/rendering-form-temp late.html)
- Secondly, you need to have LC Mobile workspace application present on your mobile device. This app is available in respective app stores.
This is what you need to render the forms in HTML on mobile devices.
Additionally,
This documentation (with snapshots) describes mobile workspace working (http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/livecycle/topics/mobile-ws-end- user.html)
One youtube link on ES4 describing use of Mobile workspace (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPZTXfnsMpw)

Anyone having problems seeing (any) content in movies since the software upgrade

After performing the software upgrade no longer pulling any content in to the movie channel and even though I can still see "top movies" on the home page when I click through the second page doesn't load. Internet connection seems fine and trailers are loading and streaming fine, is it just me?

I'm having the same problem. I called Apple and they gave me three options. One was pay a $19.95 fee for this one time fix & they could help me or go to itunes or apple's tech websites! Wow Apple isn't what it use to be. Also the lady I spoke with was rude. We're an Apple lover but not sure for how long!

The updated Adobe Reader App on the iPad will not flatten a PDF Form before emailing.

My iPad automatically updated and since that update, we cannot fill in PDF forms and flatten to share via email. When we share via email it shares the original file. The help section shows that option to flatten the file, but when actually performing the functions it just automatically attaches the document to the email without that security option. Has anyone run into this issue? How did you resolve it?

As an update, I am finding that I can still send documents via email (and given the option to flatten) if the document was already in my adobe prior to this update, even if I changed the document. However, If I am opening a new document right now from dropbox or some other source and editing and saving it to adobe, it will only email the original blank document.

IPad Adobe Reader and LiveCycle Forms

How do I use forms on the iPad

I am trying to create a form that I can enter the information into the fields and then email it to a customer. I would also like to save the document with each customers information. I was able to enter the information on my Mac with the typewriter feature but have not found this feature in my iPad. Pls help.

Try installing the Adobe Reader for your iPad:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/adobe-reader/id469337564?mt=8
You can use that application to open PDF documents. If those documents are Acroforms, you can fill them. If not, you can use the Text tool to "type" text on top of a PDF. To add text to a PDF with the iPad Adobe Reader, tap on the document to bring the toolbar down. Then, tap on the commenting icon (the cloud with the pen). Now, tap on the Text tool (The "T" without the line through or under it). After selecting that tool, you can tap on the document and add text.

Adobe Acrobat XI Freezes On LiveCycle Designer Form

Adobe Acrobat XI randomly freezes when filling out form fields in a specific PDF designed by myself in LiveCycle Designer 11.
The Windows Event Log sometimes records the following:
Error
11/8/2013 4:09:00 PM
Application Error
1000
(100)
"Faulting application name: Acrobat.exe, version: 11.0.4.63, time stamp: 0x52288928
Faulting module name: unknown, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x00000000
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x98006f09
Faulting process id: 0x380
Faulting application start time: 0x01cedcc3eebf5e0b

Faulting module path: unknown
Report Id: fcca7abe-48b9-11e3-b2d4-bc305bfc853b"
This indicates a hard crash, but when I've seen the issue it's the Acrobat window becoming grayed out and unresponsive (in the typical Windows fashion).
The staff member who regularly uses the PDF form indicates he's constantly having to deal with this. I've confirmed the freeze once while shadowing him for the day.
In terms of the PDF itself there's not much special-- four (4) pages filled with a lot of text, drop down and checkboxes, and three buttons that contain short snippets of code that likely never run.
What gives? How does Acrobat crash on such a straightforward PDF?

If this only happens for one users Acrobat you should try to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat.
There is a tool from Adobe Labs that will fix registry issues and other problems that can cause an unexspected app crash.

If you see the problem on different machines, it's worth to let someone check your form.

Please help my Oracle Friends
Your early help will be highly appreciated.
thanks and regards

You said, "...+I would like to install Release 2(11.1.1.2.0)+ ...". Be careful. 11.1.1.2.0 is not Release 2. The version for Rel 2 is 11.1.2.0, notice that there is one less "1". Also, there is no way to patch from Release 1 to Release 2.
In EDelivery, this is what you should find if you search on "Oracle Fusion Middleware" for "Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit)":
First look for this link then drill into it:
Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g Media Pack for Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit)
In this section you will find the following:
This is the full product installation of FMw 11 Release 2 (Forms & Reports)
Oracle Forms and Reports 11g R2 (11.1.2.0.0) for Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit) V28761-01
This is the full product installation of FMw 11 Release 1 (includes Portal, Forms, Reports, and Disco)
Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g (11.1.1.2.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit) (Part 1 of 4) V18785-01

Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g (11.1.1.2.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit) (Part 4 of 4)
This is the FMw 11 Release 1 patch set that will bring the above 11.1.1.2.0 installation to 11.1.1.6. This is NOT a full product installation - just a patch
Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g Patch Set 5 (11.1.1.6.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit) V29850-01
There are no patch sets for Release 2 as of yet.

Livecycle Designer form distribution - bound fields blank

PDF forms created in Livecycle Designer have bindings of some form fields and an XML data source (Livecycle Preview looks great). When I make user-like data entry into the form as it is displayed in Lifecycle Preview, it behaves as I would expect at the user end after distribution . When submitted from Livecycle Preview it generates an email with an attached XML document representative of the entered data. My problem is that switching back to the Livecycle Design, saving the form, closing Livecycle, opening the form in Adobe Acrobat 8, enabling usage rights in Adobe Reader , and finally distributing the document, it arrives at the user end and is displayed as it is in Livecycle Design View (None of the bound fields are visible and the flowable form is not "flowed". I looks exactly like the Licecycle Design View.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. The user community has no import capability (forms are email-attached for opening using the free Adobe Reader). I want to populate the form from my end (Adobe Acrobat 8.13). I was under the impression that associating the form as follows was sufficient fo populate the form.
File > Form Properties > Select Default Tab and at the Data File: prompt, enter the name of a local XML document that binds to form fields
Am I missing a step?

Am having problem with my iphone4s not syncing with my iPad

Am having problem with my iPhone 4s calendar events showing up on my iPad . Have turned calendar off & on in both devices, to no avail

On the iPhone, check Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar. Here be sure you have selected the calendar listed under your iCloud account name as your default. If you haven't, change this, then enter a new event on the phone's calendar and see if it syncs to the iPad now.

Import the music and photos from the memory card with your computer and place the music in your iTunes library.
Place the photos in a folder to be designated for transfer to your iPhone.
Select Sync Music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes to transfer this music and any other music in your iTunes library and select Sync Photos under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes selecting the folder where these photos are located followed by a sync.

Does Ipad adobe reader allow to fill a dynamic xml form created on LiveCycle?

The form was created using LiveCycle Designer ES3 for the purpose of being filled out on the spot at the client and then submitted as email attachment. However, Adobe reader does not seem to be able to open it giving the following error:
"Please wait... If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your PDF viewer may not be able to display this type of document..."
The form is dynamic XML, and in the description of the Adobe Reader for the Ipad, it mentions that it is capable of opening forms under the Livecycle rights.
However, if the Reader can not open dynamic XML's, how can I convert the form into a compatible fillable form for the Ipad?
Thanks.

LiveCycle Dynamic XML Forms are not supported in the Mobile versions of Adobe Reader.

Form processed by LiveCycle, but cannot be saved by Adobe Reader

Hi All,
I have an Adobe form which has been processed by LiveCycle, however, it still cannot be saved by Adobe Reader. What could be the probable cause of this?
Background:
Previously, the whole process could work alright; i.e. create form using Acrobat Prof -> process using LiveCycle -> editing and saving with Adobe Reader.
However, after some changes where made to the pre-processed form, LiveCycle can no longer make the form save-able by Adobe Reader.
Thanks and best rgds,
Kwok Pong

Hi Kwok,
The term "LiveCycle" covers a good number of products so I will make the assumption you are talking about Reader Extensions. Please let me know if this is wrong.
If you licensed Adobe LiveCycle Barcoded Forms this does not necessarily mean that you have licensed Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions (which is sometimes referred to as ARES). ARES is the technology that is used to allow the Barcoded Forms PDFs to work but does not enable save-off-line capabilities on your forms unless you licensed this feature too.
Take a few minutes and listen to this presentation, it should give you an idea of how things are licensed: http://my.adobe.acrobat.com/barcodedformsandreaderextensions
