How can a user save more than one online form without losing their previous form?

We use Adobe FormsCentral for parent, student and faculty response at my school. The number one task we use them for is Progress Reports. Faculty members fill these out for EVERY student that they teach at our school. Many faculty members like to start the forms and return at a later time to finish them. So this year we were excited to offer the option of saving, however many faculty members have reached out with concern that they save one, receive the link, start a second form, click save receive the link and the first form is gone. I was under the impression that every SAVED form is a case-specific link.
Is there a way to make saving multiple forms possible? I know that it would be best to just tell faculty to do their form and submit it however that is not the answer they are willing to accept.
Additionally, because of the PDF not working the same on all machines due to people not necessarily updating their adobe software, that is not an ideal option.
Thank you in advance.

What you've described should work fine, assuming the user uses the original forms URL each time they start a new process.
You send the form URL to the users:
1) Faculty gets the form URL and starts filling it out
2) Faculty clicks "Save", enters email and is sent a unique link to that saved form data
3) Faculty starts the form over, using the original URL (not the link in the Saved data email)
4) Faculty saves this second version of the form, entering the same email address in the save dialog
They now have 2 unique emails that contain unique saved data URLs, either one can be opened and the data for that form will be retrieved, they have the option to continue and if still not complete save again, or to submit the form.  The other email/link will retreive the other data set and they have the same options there.  Once they have submitted the data from both of those saved forms there would be two submissions in FormsCentral.
What error are they getting that says the first form is gone?  And are they definitally starting from the original URL both times and not from a saved URL?
Thanks,
Josh

  • How can you set up more than one device on iTunes. I have an iPad, iPod, itouch and iPhone. I don't want the same on all devices.

    How can you set up more than one device on iTunes? I have an iPad, iPod, itouch and iPhone. I don't want the same on all devices. I have all my music/videos on iTunes on my mac book pro. Can you set up separate folders for each device and drop in what ever music/videos from the main iTunes library?

    In itunes it is called syncing and you can choose exactly what content to sync to all devices and it can be different for all of them

    how can I download an more than one audio cd to itunes, scramble all and then transfer all back to a R/W cd?

    Import the CDs to iTunes one at a time, following these instructions.
    Once the tracks are in your iTunes library, put them into a playlist, and get them into the order you want.  Or if you by "scramble" you mean a randomly shuffled order, use the crossing arrows at the lower left to do so.
    When you are ready, insert a blank CD, use the command File > Burn Playlist to Disc, and create an audio CD.  I strongly suggest using CD-Rs rather than CD-RWs, since the latter often have trouble in normal CD players.

    Hi, how can i open up more email accounts (hotmail)? I have accidentally merged 2 - not sure how but urgently need to access others and cannot run this risk!  thx

    Hotmail is not part of the Mac OS - I'd check their website (Hotmail or Microsoft) to see how to do it.

  • How can I set up more than one iCloud account on my pc?

    I would like more than one photo stream to save to my pc.  I have an iCloud setup up on my pc so that my pc can save the photo stream pictures from an ipad and iphone (each have the same id).  I also have a second iphone with a separate icloud/apple id, and I would like pictures from that photo stream to be saved to the same pc.  Is this possible to do?  I don't see any options to 'add an acount' in my iCloud control panel.

    Any one user account on the Mac can have more than one iCloud account signed into, but only the first one set up will sync Calendars and Contacts. You would probably be able to enter the second account's server details manually into the Mail application to that it would access both accounts: setup details here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864
    However the best way to do this is certainly for each of you to have your own user account on the Mac, setting up Fast User Switching to prevent having to keep logging in and out - then each account can set up the owner's iCloud account and do all the syncing and other facilities.

  • How can I set up more than one iCloud account on a single Mac?

    I just want to start with the very basics. My wife and I each have an iCloud account. We both want to check our iCloud e-mail in the Mail Application without user switching. Is this possible? How do we set it up? Is it also possible to each manager our own calendars (iCal) and contacts (Address Books) without user switching? Put aside all iTunes issues for now. Just worried about iCloud: two iCloud IDs. One Mac.

  • On 4S how can I delete emails more than one at a time in my Inbox

    Just got the iPhone 4S (first ever iPhone for me).  When I have emails in my Inbox and I want to delete them is there a way to delete more than one at a time?  I know when I go to the Trash it lets me "delete all".  I get quite a bit of emails and it's a huge waste of time to only be able to delete one at a time in the Inbox.

    I'm trying to find a way of clicking one box/area and it deleting all the emails in the Inbox.
    It can't be done from the iPhone.  You could use Safari, access your webmail and delete from there, if that's easier.

  • How can Unique Users show more than Sessions in Application Insights

    According to MSDN (See below), unique users is the number of sessions from a particular client machine. So how come I'm seeing 4k unique users and 1.5k sessions on my WordPress site?
    Sessions - A session begins when a user interacts with an application and terminates after a period of inactivity longer than 30 minutes. The event reports show the number of sessions in which that event occurs.
    Unique Users - The number of users who engage in one or more sessions from a particular client machine. This count uses a cookie to store a user ID. If the same user works on a different machine or cleans up cookies, they will be counted
    twice.
    Rehan Saeed

    Hello Rehan,
    At first, it sounds like a bug and should be evaluated by a product team. Can you please post a bug on
    MS CONNECT (as close to AppInsights as possible, probably VSO..)?
    An alternative explanation (and, by the way, very weird one) would be that user cookie gets cleaned while session stays active. In old browsers it could've been something like cookie limit, so that extra cookies are ignored/discarded/replaced... with the
    modern browsers, I would think of some middle-tier, like a proxy/firewall that removes certain cookies it considers unsafe/malicious...These are all theories, of course, the opened bug should help to investigate the problem sooner.

  • How can i to print more than one document from a form??

    Hi;
    i would like to print 3 document (PLD) from a order form , ie, i want to print one Order more two documents using Layout Design,
    How can i do it??
    thanks.

    This might be able to be done through PLD.
    1. Go to the Print Layout Designer.
    2. Choose document type relevant to the report that you are going to
    print.
    3. Save template with new name if you are using a system default.
    4. Open the template and go to Print Layout Designer > Display Document Properties > Paper Format tab.
    5. Set the 'Number of Copies'  to 3.
    6. Save the new template and set it as default.

  • Can a user have more than one RBS value?

    In our current environment, we have our RBS structure setup similar to our University organizational chart. Many of these groups collaborate with each other on projects and this structure does not allow for one user to see projects from multiple departments.
    For instance, our Admissions office collaborates on projects with our IT group. If Admissions enters a project in PWA, the IT group will not see the project proposal until an IT resource is assigned. But, since we are just at the proposal stage, we would prefer
    to not assign resources until the project is approved. As it stands with our current RBS structure, if a user in Admissions is the project owner, the IT group cannot see the project.
    Would like to avoid setting individual project permissions when collaborating with multiple departments.
    So, Admissions needs to have the project show on their project list (for planning and portfolio purposes) and IT needs for it to show on their project list, for the same reasons. How can we accomplish this setup?
    Thank you for any help you can provide.

    SycamoresPM,
    A single user cannot have two RBS values at the same time.
    Your best bet in this scenario would be to rather depend on the "project Team". So, whoever is part of the team could see the project, rather than the RBS itself.
    In this case, regardless of the department, the resource could be added to the schedule and once published, will be seen the team member. That should solve your issue, in my opinion.

  • How can I connect to more than one computer from external ip

    Hi
    I have been using remote desktop for some time and have a port forward set so I can connect to our mail server from anywhere else externally from my macbook pro, but how can I connect to other macs in the office when there only seems to be the two ports available for use 5900 and 3283. I can only port forward to one computer? How can I connect to multiple computers when not within the same network? are there other ports available?
    Cheers
    Tony

    If your workstations get their addresses from an NAT device rather than being "real", the ports also need to be forwarded in the router to the workstation's internal IP address.  ARD uses port 3283 for the reporting and updating function, so if your Macs are getting their IP addresses through NAT, since you can only forward a port to a single workstation, you can only get reports, push package/files to etc. for a single workstation.
    ARD uses the VNC protocol for observation and control, though, and there are a range of IP addresses for that protocol, starting with 5900. ARD uses 5900 by default, so that port would be forwarded to the first workstation. You would, I believe,  need to install third-party VNC software on the systems (since the ARD client cannot listen on any port other than 5900 while other VNC systems can be set for other ports such as 5901, 5902, etc. You would then  forward 5901 to the second workstation (and on to 5902, 5903, etc.). You can then use the following information:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=RemoteDesktop/3.0/en/ARDC715.html  to connect.
    The only other options are: 1) to run the ARD administrator on a workstation on the network, and then take control of that system from outside, either via VNC or another copy of ARD, or 2) set up a virtual private network (VPN) so that when you connect from outside, your admin system is officially part of the local network.
    Hope this helps.

  • How can I set up more than one quiz in one presentation

    I would like to be able to keep score on different types of quizes I have set up in one presentation. Meaning I have 20 multipule choice, 15 match, 17 true false, and 5 math problems in one presentation. I'd like to be about to score them seperately and set the questions up in numerical order so that if I put the multiple choice and the math as back to back quizes they are numbered as 1-20 and 1-5 and not 1-35

    To do this, you'd have to set up your own user variables to track whether or not certain quiz questions had been done, remove the normal Captivate progress indicator and replace it with your own caption displaying your custom variables. 
    Don't forget that no matter how YOU think your quiz is divided up, as far as Captivate is concerned, you just have one big quiz  (unless your on Cp6 which also now gives you the option of having a PreQuiz).

  • How can I buy in more than one Mac App Store ?

    I would like to buy in the german and irish Mac App Shop and use one Apple ID.

    Yes.   You have to remember that apps and music downloaded to a particular ID are forever tied to that ID.    Music of course doesn't get updated but apps do and that means you can only update an app using the original ID with which it was purchased.
    Just in case you aren't aware, neither can accounts be merged nor can Apps be transfered to another account.
    Thank you for the star.

  • How can I scan to more than one specific folder?

    For example, I want to scan in a document from the printer but want it to go into folder A. Next I want to scan another document but I want it to go into folder B. I know how to create a permanent destination for my scans, what I want to know is, is there a way to get the document to save to a folder if it is open an active let say (if the desktop is active it saves to the desktop or if my document folder is open and active it saves to the document folder). Thank you very much!
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Welcome to the forums MFSOUTH,
    I saw your post about wanting to change where your scans are directed to. My suggestion would be to change the scan destination through the printer software when you make a scan and want it saved to a certain folder (Folder A or B). You won't be able to send a scan from the printer and have it save to multiple folders.
    If there is other inquiries you have, please feel free to ask!
    Also, include which printer model you have:
