Hide Windows Digital IDs

I want to hide all Digital IDs in Adobe Reader 11 that come from the Windows Certificate Store. The users should only be able to use Digital IDs created with Adobe Reader.
Is there an option to exclude Windows IDs? I know that I can delete them from the Windows Certificate Store, but this does not help because I need them for other purposes.
Thank you for your help!

Hi,
Please post your question in Forms forum for a quick answer. This forum focuses on the sample_code section of OTN site.

Certify a Document using a Windows Digital ID in the Certificate Store

How does one reference or use an installed certificate (*.pfx) in the Windows Certificate Store rather than using a certificate on a hard drive?
Control Panel -> Internet Properties -> Content (tab) -> Certificates -> Trusted Root Certification Authorities
Acrobat -> Menu Bar -> Advanced -> Security Settings... -> Digital IDs -> Windows Digital IDs
Snippit:
var myEngine = security.getHandler("Adobe.PPKLite");
myEngine.login("PassWord", "/C/MyCert.pfx"); // use certificate in teh store, no on the drive
if (typeof strVersion == "undefined") var strVersion = "1.0.2";                   // 2011.08.01
if (typeof cerSolomon == "undefined") var cerSolomon = {};
    cerS.sigUserPwd = "";
    cerS.sigDigitalIDPath = "/C/RoggeHeflin.pfx";
    cerS.sigFieldname = "Signature";
    cerS.sigReason = "This document has been digitally signed by MyCompany.";
    cerS.sigLegal = "© 2011 MyCompany.";
    cerS.sigLocation = "Dallas, Texas, USA";
    cerSsigContactInfo = "www.MyCompany.com";
    cerS.MPDValue = "allowNone";

    if (typeof curDoc == "undefined") var curDoc = this;
    if (typeof sigField == "undefined") var sigField = curDoc.addField(cerS.sigFieldname, "signature", 0, [0, 0, 0, 0]);
    CertifyDoc(sigField, cerS);
// Trusted Functions
if (typeof CertifyDoc == "undefined")
var CertifyDoc = app.trustedFunction(function (SignatureField, CertificateInfo)
        app.beginPriv();
        var myEngine = security.getHandler(CertificateInfo.sigHandlerName);
        myEngine.login(CertificateInfo.sigUserPwd, CertificateInfo.sigDigitalIDPath);
        SignatureField.signatureSign(
                oSig: myEngine,
                bUI: 1,
                cLegalAttest: CertificateInfo.sigLegal,
                oInfo: {
                    password: CertificateInfo.sigUserPwd,

        app.endPriv();

the following is returned in the JS debugger:
[ Creation of this signature could not be completed. ] -> [ You have not selected a valid digital ID. Try again. ]
Here is my code... I think LoginParams needs to be adjusted to use an already-logged-into digital id. When the PW and fulle root (\c\roggeheflind(sa).pfx) is supplied then the certification/encryptions works... the two requirements I have are 1) avoid have the PW in code, 2) not entering the PW each time (this is part of a batch sequence)
    var myEngine = security.getHandler(CertificateInfo.sigHandlerName);
//    var policyOptions = {
//        cHandler: security.PPKLiteHandler,
//        cTarget: "RoggeHeflin(SA).pfx"
//    var policyArray = security.getSecurityPolicies(
//            oOptions: policyOptions
//    var LoginParams = {
//        oEndUserSignCert: policyArray
    var LoginParams = {
        cDIPath: CertificateInfo.sigDigitalIDPath,
        cPassword: CertificateInfo.sigUserPwd
    // Login into the security hander (*.pfx file)
    myEngine.login(
            oParams: LoginParams,
            bUI: 0
    // Set the properties for the signature
    var SignatureInfo = {

        timeStamp: CertificateInfo.TimeStamp,

Installing non-self signed software Digital IDs

Hi all,
to the best of my knowledge Acrobat allows installation of digital IDs either in software format (PKCS#12 keystores) or in hardware format (PKCS#11 HSMs). As far as the former is concerned, only self-signed certificates are allowed (PKCS#12 dows not support trustStore certificate attribute). My business case is that Digital IDs are formulated as non-self signed certificates delivered in JKS keystore. Unfortunately currently Acrobat forbids the installation of these IDs.
Does anyone know if this is going to change in the future?
Thank you in advance,
Regards,
Paul.

Hi Dom,
If you enable FIPS mode in Acrobat or Reader, then the ability to create a self-signed digital ID is disabled. You want to set the following registry entry (making sure Acrobat or Reader is closed):
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\<version>\AVGeneral
bFIPSMode=1
or
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\<version>\AVGeneral
bFIPSMode=1
This was introduced in version 8.1 so <version> will be either "8.0" or "9.0". Also, this will only works on Windows; the FIPS compliance setting was not implemented on the Mac or Linux platforms.

Sharing iTunes library across 2 Windows user IDs

My Windows XP computer is set up with 2 user accounts. iTunes is installed and all of my music is stored in my Shared Music folder (this folder is in Shared Documents, which is accessible from each user ID).
I want to be able to use iTunes from either Windows user ID. The problem is that iTunes creates and maintains 2 separate iTunes Music Library.xml files. When I'm logged on (user #1), iTunes uses the xml file in my My Documents folder. When my spouse is logged on (user #2), iTunes uses the xml file in her My Documents folder.
This is problematic. If I add a new song to iTunes from my Windows ID (and the song file is placed in the Shared Music folder), it is added to my library and xml file. If my spouse logs on and launches iTunes, the song is NOT in her iTunes library. She has to manually add the file from the iTunes Add File to Library command.
I'd like iTunes to use a single library that both Windows user IDs can use and maintain. I don't want to have to manually try to keep these in sync.
I can't find any setting in iTunes for this, and the user guide doesn't even mention this topic. Any help is appreciated!!!

TheMint,
I think it works like this:
The setting you describe is where iTunes will store the music files themselves (.aac or .mp3, etc.) However, iTunes creates an index of all of your music, and it uses that index to display all of your music in iTunes. The index file is called iTunes Library.xml
The index is stored in the My Documents\My Music folder of the user ID you log in as. Apparently, you cannot tell iTunes to store this in a different location.
So if you create an iTunes library under one Windows user ID, the index is created in that user ID's My Documents\My Music folder. If you then log in as another Windows user ID, iTunes does not see the index that was created by the first Windows user. Thus you do not see any of the music listed in iTunes.

[Flex 4.5.1] Focus on TextInput hides windows 7 language bar when in Chrome, Firefox works fine

Focus on TextInput hides windows 7 language bar when in Chrome (latest version by the time of the writting) - very odd behavior, if the user clicks away from the flex app then the language bar reappears but even if you change the language if you focus back on the application the language is back to what it was the last time the application was focused, though you can't actually see this since the language bar is gone.
This is kind of a serious bug since an avarage user probably would't be able to change the language with key combinations...
Does someone know anything about this issue ?

Actually giving focus on the entire flex application results in hiding the windows 7 language bar in chrome. I just reported this. Here is the link for the bug + an extra issue:

Use of a debugger while executing Windows Digital Rights Management (WMDRM) code is not permitted

Hi:
   I have a Panasonic video camera that records in 1920x1080 60P format and writes an .m2ts type file. I've written a filter that scales this to half size and allows me to draw on the video etc. I would like to save that video.
When I attempt to develop my program using Visual Studio 2010 I get the message "Use of a debugger while executing Windows Digital Rights Management (WMDRM) code is not permitted". Also the program blows up with a memory access error.
Since this is my camera how is DRM involved??   Is there a way to make such private videos not be involved in DRM? Finally,  and how is one supposed to develop and debug this type of application if the debugger is not allowed
to be used.
     Interestingly, if I run my application in non-debug mode it executes correctly. However as I would like to make additions to the program etc. not being able to use the debugger is extremely difficult. Can someone
shed light on this??

Adding digital IDs

I have just upgraded to Acrobat Standard v8.0. Until now I have been running Acrobat v4.0
I have been attempting to add digital IDs created in v4.0 using the .apf profiles generated by that version. However I am receiving the following error message:
Could not open digital ID file with password provided. Try again.
I have confirmed that I am using the correct passwords by running v4.0 and logging in under self-sign signatures using the appropriate passwords.
Can anybody offer any advice?
Thanks
Mike

What I found that worked is to enter the password, press the TAB key (don't click finish), re-enter the password AND THEN click finish. What appears to be happening is that the confirmation password box never appears. By hitting the tab key you are going into that invisible field and confirming the password. This has now worked for me on several documents.

There is 3 parameters in the <DevSuiteHome>\forms\server.formsweb.cfg having the same behavior.
Logo
Background
SplashScreen
By default (if you don't have specified them in you [section] they values are inherited from the [default] section) the values are
Logo=
Background=
SplashScreen=
This means you will have the oracle logo, the Forms Services background image in your applet and the oracle splash screen at startup.
*To have nothing shown then just put the value no in front of these 3 parameters*
Logo=no
Background=no
SplashScreen=noYou can also customize that with you own gif files.
For this you have to put your images in a icons.jar file
place it in your <DevSuiteHome>\forms\java where frmall.jar and others are located.
then in your formsweb.cfg :
Archive=frmall.jar, icons.jar
ImageBase=CodeBase
Logo=yourlogo.gif
Background=yourbackground.gif
SplashScreen=yourbeautifullsplachscreen.gifAnd at least if you have a small gif in your icons.jar for the window you can also defining the Icon Filename property in Forms builder. This wile replace the default forms runtime icon.
Hope this helps

Acrobat slow opening files with Digital IDs

hi! I was hoping others were having this issue. I have a client that has over a dozen Digital ID Signatures stored on our network drive.
When she tries to open a file with multiple Digital ID Signatures, Acrobat takes forever verifying the Signatures. I can disable the security end, but that's not an option because of the people we are sending these files to.
Is there anyway to speed up the performance? Or will they just have to accept it?
Thanks for everyone's time.
Alvin

Hi Alvin,
Sadly, there's not a whole lot that can be done to mitigate the problem. Even without a lot of digital IDs installed on the system any time you open a file with that many signatures it takes a long time to validate. Part of the problem is a design flaw where signature 1 gets validated, then when Acrobat moves onto signature 2 it validates signature 1 again because each signature creates a roll-back version of the PDF (View Signed Version) and each rollback version is validated independently. When you extrapolate that out to 20 signatures you can see how much signature validation is going on. We are working on streamlining this process for future versions of Acrobat, but for now it's a liability that you can't get around.
The number of digital IDs is a separate issue where Acrobat does all of the chain building at the front end (it's no longer on app open like it used to be, but as soon as Acrobat has to iterate the list of digital IDs). You don't have to open a signed file to trigger this, but that is one of the triggers. Acrobat has to test each signature to see if it has access to the private key in order to allow the user to clear the signature. It's access to the private key in the digital ID that enables the "Clear signature" menu item.
Sorry for the bad news,
Steve

Using digital IDs/SMIME on the iPhone3G

Hi all,
Has anyone tried loading/using a digital ID on the iPhone?
Our corporate policy is for all messages to be digitally signed when being sent and I want to know if this works out of the box or not.
Any confirmation or suggestions would be greatly appreciloved.
Thank you,
~Brett A. Scudder~

I tried using digital IDs for authentication via SSL mutual authentication in Safari and it did not work.
I haven't tried S/MIME or digital signatures.

Digital ids created with acrobat- forgot password

If I created a digital ID in Acrobat Professional, and forgot my password, how can I create a new one? It won't let me remove an ID without the password. I can create new IDs, but they all require the original password. Help!

Hi,
Select the Advanced > Security Settings menu item
Select Digital IDs from the tree view on the left side of the Security Settings dialog
There is a list of one or more digital IDs on the right side of the dialog. There is also a column that's labeled "Storage Mechanism". What does it say under Storage Mechanism for the digital ID you want to remove?

Hide window in access

Hello, ALL
I use the following code to hide database window :
Private Declare Function IsWindowVisible Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long) As Long
Dim dwReturn As Long
Const SW_HIDE = 0
Const SW_SHOWNORMAL = 1
Const SW_SHOWMINIMIZED = 2
Const SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED = 3
Private Declare Function ShowWindow Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long, _
ByVal nCmdShow As Long) As Long
Public Function fAccessWindow(Optional Procedure As String, Optional SwitchStatus As Boolean, Optional StatusCheck As Boolean) As Boolean
If Procedure = "Hide" Then
dwReturn = ShowWindow(Application.hWndAccessApp, SW_HIDE)
End If
If Procedure = "Show" Then
dwReturn = ShowWindow(Application.hWndAccessApp, SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED)
End If
If Procedure = "Minimize" Then
dwReturn = ShowWindow(Application.hWndAccessApp, SW_SHOWMINIMIZED)
End If
If SwitchStatus = True Then
If IsWindowVisible(hWndAccessApp) = 1 Then
dwReturn = ShowWindow(Application.hWndAccessApp, SW_HIDE)
Else
dwReturn = ShowWindow(Application.hWndAccessApp, SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED)
End If
End If

If IsWindowVisible(hWndAccessApp) = 1 Then
fAccessWindow = True
End If
End If
End Function
But ,
When i click on the icon access application in taskbar, the ms access DB window re-appears!. Is it
a solution?
thanks

You can use the hide window option of the show window fuction in the
user32.dll for windows. Docs and help at vbapi.com.
http://vbapi.com/ref/s/showwindow.html to be exact.
You may also need to hide the additional taskbar entry that labview adds by
default.
Do this by adding HideRootWindow=True to your labview or exe ini file.

Hide window without delete

how to hide window without delete in script or smart form if it is already exist

Hi,
[1]. If print program is custom build, do not call this window.
[2]. If print probram is not custom built then put the window code in between IF.... ENDIF. You have to do like this.
- First define a variable with
/: DEFINE &true& = ' '.
- Now put your all other code between this condition.
 /: IF &true& EQ '1'.
 your code
 /: ENDIF.
[3]. Or as the third option, commend your code. But in this case you will loose your formatting since you have to put comment ( /* ) code at each line.
Let me know if you need any other information.
