How can I overwrite PDF files without saving in a new location?

Hi,
I have recently purchased Acrobat X.
Everytime I make an edit to a pdf file, I cannot overwrite the old version. I keep getting an error message saying that another user has the document open, and am forced to save with a new name or in a new location.
Can anyone help me to fix this? I deal with 100s of PDF files in a day and re-saving in a different location or renaming with every change is a real time-consuming hassle.
Thanks!

Hi inasravanim and Gilad D (try67)
Sorry to hikack the thread....but I have the same issue.
Windows 7, saving to network drive. If I overwrite the pdf on the desktop it does so fine. However, not on the network drive. The user has full control permissions on the network drive. So at a loss as to why this is happening. It only happens with PDF files too (as have tried other file formats with no issues).
Don't think it is a Acrobat problem - this was happening on Acrobat X and now on Acrobat XI. But again shouldn't be a permissions issue either...??
Any ideas?

  • How can I open pdf files without saving?

    I use Windows Vista and Firefox browser. Until recently I was able to use the Reader without first saving. I think I may have inadvertently clicked an auto-save option in a dialog window. That window no longer appears when I try to download.

    Hi,
    Please try following steps:
    Open Firefox
    Windows: - click on 'Tools' manu  > Options and Mac:- Click on 'Firefox' menu > Options
    Click 'Applications' tab
    from the list, find : Portable Document Format and select 'Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)'
    This should solve the problem for you.

  • How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?

    How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?
    I have made a LabVIEW program where I have possibility to read a PDF document.  When I made this LabVIEW program it was Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 that was installed on the PC. Lather when the Acrobat Reader was upgraded to version 6.0, there was an error when VI tries to launch the LabVIEW program. And Later again when we upgraded to Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 I must again do some changes and rebuild the EXE files again
    It isn't so very big job to do the changes in one single LabVIEW program, but we have built a lot of LabVIEW programs so this take time to due changes every time vi update Acrobat Reader. (We have build EXE files.)
    The job is to right click the ActiveX container and Click "Insert ActiveX Object", then I can brows the computer for the new version of acrobat Reader. After this I must rebuild all the "methods" in the Activex call to make the VI executable again.
    Is there a way to build LabVIEW program so I don't have to do this job every time we update Acrobat Reader?
    This LabVIEW program is written in LabVIEW 6.1, but I se the problem is the same in LabVIEW 8.2.

    hi there
    try the vi
    ..vi.lib\platform\browser.llb\Open Acrobat Document.vi
    it uses DDE or the command line to run an external application (e.g. Adobe Acrobat)
    Best regards

    Yes you can definitely do this. You'll need an app on the iPad that handles PDF viewing and editing. There are many around - two of the best I've seen are GoodReader and PDF Expert.
    In iTunes when you iPad is connected to your PC, go to the Apps tab and scroll down and you'll see the File Sharing section. You can drag files to there to share them to your iPad.
    You could also look at online file sync services like PDF to ePub Maker if you prefer not to have to connect your iPad to a PC

  • How can I open PDF files?  The usual procedures don't work for me.  Thanks.

    How can I open PDF files?  Until a couple of months ago, I had no problem.  Now I can open none of them.  I have Adobe Reader X.  Yesterday I uninstalled Adobe X, restarted the computer, and then reinstalled Adobe X.  No success.  Thanks.

    What happens if you open Reader first then use File>Open like Bernd suggested?
    Are you sure you are opening them in Reader and not a text editor or MS Word? I ask because Reader will not prompt you for a language.

    As has been mentioned Adobe Reader cannot export PDF page content. Nor can it create PDF or manipulate PDF page content.
    What you can do is use one of Adobe's online subscription services. Two provide for PDF  to Word export.
    There's ExportPDF and PDF Pack.
    Be well...

  • How can i edit pdf files ?

    how can i edit pdf files ?

    What kind of "editing" operations do you have in mind?
    You can add/delete/change annotations (such as Sticky Notes or Highlight/Strikeout/Underline text markups) or fill out forms in Adobe Reader.  Some people (mistakenly) call it "editing".  But, strictly speaking, it is not.
    Because Adobe Reader is a PDF viewer, you are not able to edit the content of PDF documents.  For example, you cannot
    add/edit images or text
    insert/delete/extract pages
    convert PDF from/to other formats
    You need a PDF editor such as Adobe Acrobat Pro or Standard, which is not a free product.

  • How to compress a pdf file without quality loss

    How to compress a pdf file without quality loss? Please help....

    With the way you worded the question, your only option is to zip (or equivalent) the PDF. There are options in terms of graphic compression (this is generally a loss of quality in reducing the pixels) and nonstorage of fonts (likely making the file unreadable to some). So there are techniques, but with a tradeoff. It all depends on what you mean by loss of quality.
    The other techniques that do not lose quality, but give up on some functionality are to remove links, bookmarks, and tags. The tags are often necessary only for converting a PDF back to another form and maintaining accessibility - important in some business situations. These are all tradeoffs that give something up.

  • How can i attcah pdfs from anotehr email to a  new email

    How can i attache pdf file from an existing email to a new email . I do not want to forwrad this email as is .

    My suggestions is to download iBooks from the app store. It is made by Apple, it is free and you can store and email PDF files from it - amomh other things - such as downloading and reading books.
    After you download iBooks, open the email that contains the PDF that you want to email. Tap and hold your finger down on the PDF icon. A window will pop up with an option to "open in iBooks". Select that option. The PDF will open and now be saved in iBooks. Then when the PDF opens in iBooks, tap the curved arrow icon in the rectangle at the top and select email. Your mail client will open up, Type your email and hit send like any other email.
