How do I require a password to open an existing document?

In Word Perfect I could "lock" a document by requiring a password to open the document. How can I do this in Pages?

Inspector > Document > Require password to open
Be aware this is for .pages documents only, it will not work for exported Word/pdf docs.

I have a document that in Word required a password to open. I copied and pasted it to Pages. Put the password protection on. Now if I click on that filename in Finder it automatically opens.Why. Anyone can read it. How do I protect it again?

You saved it after setting the Password? :
Inspector > Document > Document > Require Password to Open
I just tested it and it shows up ijn The Finder with a padlock on the file icon and does require a password to open.

See if you have something in your settings that shows Profile. Settings>General>Profiles.
Important: Restrictions can also be enabled or enforced using a profile (typically installed when using the device for business or education purposes). You can check for installed profiles in Settings > General > Profiles. For additional information, contact the administrator or the person who installed the profile.

How do I add a password to a 3rd party document?

How do I add a password to a 3rd party document?
For example, if I download a bank statement and want to send it to someone, how can I add a password to it?
Thanks.

Thanks. That's a great resource, but it won't do what I want to do. Firstly, it seems that the password on that screen if for permission to modify the document. I'm only looking to prevent unauthorized viewing. Secondly, the 3rd party document is often already password protected by its creator.

InDesign (10.0.0.70) always asks to save every time I open an existing document (no legacy) even if I don't make any changes, why?

Literally EVERY time I open an existing document that I created myself before InDesign brings up the "Save" Dialog when I close it. I'm working with the Creative Suite like forever already and only had that sometimes, very rarely before (up to CS6). Now at my new job with CC set up this phenomenon appears. ALL files are saved on local hard drive!
Any idea or is InDesign now set to ask all the time?
Thanks for any tips!

I totally understand version issues, BUT I did create tons of new documents in CC2014 already and still every time I've been ask to save it only when opening and closing them! Like I said it happens EVERY time and I'm working constantly with InDesign. Up until now I only kinda accepted what it is and didn't have time to deal with that problem...

How do I create a fillable form from an existing document (PDF, Word, etc)?

How do I create a fillable form from an existing document (PDF, Word, etc)?

In Acrobat 11 you'd select: Tools > Forms > Edit
to go into form editing mode. You'll see the tools that are available, thought it may prompt you to autodetect the fields. I usually don't do this, preferring to create them myself.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

Outlook 2007 now requires administrator password to open

I have been using office 2007 since 2007 and this has never occurred. Now when I open Outlook, as a Standard User it asks for my Administrator Password. When I am logged on to my other account which has Administrator privileges and a password, Outlook
opens right up and the User Account dialog doesn't appear. This doesn't happen when I open Word; it is specific to Outlook.
I don't know how this happened and I don't know how to correct it.
When I am logged in as the Standard User:
Under Properties, Shortcut tab, Advanced, Run as Administrator is grayed out and not checked.
In the Compatibility Tab, in the Privilege Level section, Run this program as an administrator
IS CHECKED but grayed out. But when I click on
Change settings for all users in the Compatibility tab (I am asked for my Admin password) I see that the
Run as Administrator box is unchecked there (not grayed out). I have tried checking it, clicking on Apply and then unchecking it and clicking on apply again but the checked, Grayed out box in the Privilege Level section remains
checked.
In the Security Tab, Everyone, SYSTEM, Administrators, and both my Standard User and Administrator account have all privileges. I have tried changing the Owner from the Administrator account to the Standard User Account and back again with no effect.
When I am logged in as the user with Administrative Privileges:
As I said, Outlook opens right up without the User Account dialog appearing (no password security check).
In Properties, under the Compatibility Tab, in the Privilege Level section,
Run this program as an administrator
IS NOT CHECKED.
Does anyone know how to fix this? There must be a way to either change this in Policies or while logged in as Administrator. The box in the Standard User account needs to be "un-grayed" so that it can be unchecked.

This forum you have posted in is "where is" forum for direction on where best to ask a question. I cannot move your question to "answers" forum so you will need to re-ask over there where the outlook 2007 experts hang out.

How can I require a password to be entered in order to install a program/software? (NOT the MasterPassword Option)

I'm NOT looking for Master Password. I DON'T want to require a password in order to start/open Fire Fox.
I want anyone trying to download or install a program/software on the computer to have to enter a password, and otherwise not be able to complete the installation.
People visiting my mother keep installing junk on her computer and keep jamming it up with stupid programs and games.

though not really a firefox issue - create a password protected administrator account on the pc & turn the freely accessible account into a restricted user account.

How do I require a password?

Within Muse, how would I go about requiring a password to access certain content on my site?

There must be an echo in here; perhaps the third time this question asked this week. ( Please check the board and other posts )
At this time Muse does not natively support Usernames / Logins etc as this requires a CMS system in the 'background' of the site. It is something that can be manually added via code, but isn't supported by the application.

How do I require a password when the computer boots up (from shutdown)?

Hey guys,
How do I require the input of a password for my user account when my computer is off and then is booted up?
Thanks

Open System Preferences
Click on Accounts
Click on the padlock and enter password
Click on login options
There you should see an option to disable "automatic login". You should also notice some other options there that you may or may not want. They should be pretty self explanatory.
The Security panel has an option to require password after sleep or the screen saver is invoked if you need it.

TS1702 my Mac is requiring me to update pages app before opening an existing document. I "updated" but it still says i need a newer version of pages to read.

My Mac is requiring the newer version of Pages to view an existing document created on the old Pages. I updated my current Pages app and it still won't open this document I want to view.

Mac is version 5.1
ipad version 2.2 (1259)

I cannot open an existing document.

The new version of Pages is installed on my Macbook Pro but I get an error message when trying to open a saved document. It says I have to download the new version of pages to open the document?

You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Note: Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.
