How to unlock and remove comments in Adobe Reader X for WIN 7?

A while ago I left a comment in an adobe file and now I want to change it or remove it. The problem is that I can't do anything to the comment, because it is locked and it seems that I don't have the permission to do that. I run Win 7, 64bit.
When I select properties on the comment by right clicking on it in the Comment List on the right in the Properies window the Locked checkbox is empty, gray and unselectable. The fact that the Locked checkbox is empty should mean that the comment is not locked but there is an icon next to it that pictures a small lock. I am confused. Is it locked? Is it not? Is there anything I can do to remove or change this comment?
Next to the Locked checkbox is a Make Properties Default checkbox which is selectable but I believe unrelated to what I want to do. What do I do?

I do not know what causes this; I do not have any such problem on a very similar system. But if I did have such a problem, I would
make sure the latest Adobe Reader version is installed
make sure all Windows updates are installed
check if there is a newer printer driver version available
see if temporarily disable AV would prevent the problem
Sorry, no other ideas.

I use Safari as my browser. When on a site and I click on a PDF file I get a black screen and a notice that "Adobe Reader blocked for this website". However, this does not happen if I use Firefox.

I use Safari as my browser. When on a site and I click on a PDF file I get a black screen and a notice that "Adobe Reader blocked for this website". However, this does not happen if I use Firefox.

Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to print by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar may appear under the cursor. Click the printer icon.
Step 2
There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
Step 3
If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
and check the box marked
Allow Plug-ins
Then click
Manage Website Settings...
and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
Step 4
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
Step 5
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
Step 6
Do as in Step 3 with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

How do you search bold text in Adobe Reader XI for Windows?

We create documents electronically that contain bold text for a client. No matter what we try in Adobe Reader XI for Windows, bold text is not found. Is it not searchable? Is there a setting that we are overlooking to enable it? So far, only NitroPDF is the only program I can find that works.

I just created a small test PDF (test_bold.pdf) with some bold words in it. Reader XI (11.0.09) has no trouble finding these words.
You can download the test doc from https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/333accd7-f54b-40f4-b06f-f14a3608f120
Search for the word lazy that has been boldened multiple times in the doc.

How to streamline and remove duplicate files on my HD before I backup?

How to streamline and remove duplicate files on my HD before I backup?
is there a good program or freeware that can automate and isolate when I have
duplicate files hiding in the many folders on my Drive... Yes, in a perfect world
I should know better than having a Drive that is not perfectly organized
I think there is something called SpringCleaning for windows
is there something like this for Mac?
Time machine won't let you remove something after you realized you backed
up two of the same files... Thanks for ideas

You should back up your drive with Time Machine before you delete any files in case you make a mistake.

Click on the Time Machine browser icon on the dock. Locate the duplicate file you wish to delete and highlight it. Click on the button with the gear on and choose Delete "all backups of".

I am with a university and i purchased the adobe photoshop elements for a faculty member of mine, how can he download it when it is in my name but he is the one needing it?

i am with a university and i purchased the adobe photoshop elements for a faculty member of mine, how can he download it when it is in my name but he is the one needing it?

There is nothing to prevent him from downloading and installing the trial version (Adobe - Download free trial version Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 | Adobe). At the point all you need to do is provide him with the serial number so that he can activate it. If the intent is that he be the owner of the software then you might want to see about transfering the license...

HT2905 No Display Duplicates under File. How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library

I now have iTunes ver 11.0.4.4 under Windows 7. I lost all iTunes stuff when updating to Windows 7. I have loaded thousands amd thousands of music files from backup disks, but there are many duplicates. I am attemping to re-establish my old library. I used to be able to remove duplicates quickly with the old iTunes. The new iTunes doesn't seem to offer the same service. Is there any way to remove duplicates quickly, or must I do it one by one?

When deduping use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin. Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
(If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed)

How to stop and remove an active job.

How to stop and remove an active job.

What sort of "job" are you referring to? A print job? If so, open the queue for the printer - it should be in your Dock, or you can access it through the Printers & Scanners system preference - and click the green Pause button to stop the entire queue, or the Pause button next to a specific print job to pause just that job. To clear a job, click the "X" button to the right of the job.
If that's not the "job" you mean, please post back and clarify.

Hi, I was working on a PDF writing comments using Adobe Reader on a Mac. I clicked save and got a 'cannot save' message. I then clicked save as instead, Reader froze and my PDF disappeared. The only version saved has only my first comment. Does Adobe

Hi, I was working on a PDF writing comments using Adobe Reader on a Mac. I clicked save and got a 'cannot save' message. I then clicked save as instead, Reader froze and my PDF disappeared. The only version saved has only my first comment. Does Adobe Reader save to temporary files that I can access in order to recover my work? Is there any other way to recover it? Thanks!

Hi @Pat Willener,
since I got the same problem as pdfprincess I hope you can help me. The 'Automatically save document changes to temporary file...' is enabled in my adobe reader.
A file I worked (commented) on a lot crashed. When I reopened the file, adobe reader didn't ask if I want to restore my changes in this file, as it is written on the help.adobe.com page. Is there any possibility to restore the changes manually from the temporary file?
Thanks in advance - it is really important for me to restore these changes!!

How can detect and remove scanned white pages in an OCRd pdf file?

How can detect and remove scanned white pages in an OCRd pdf file?

Acrobat does not support an automated way of doing this directly. You can
remove completely blank pages (pages that don't have any "marking
objects"), but a scanned page does contain an image, so Acrobat won't help
you here. There are a number of 3rd party applications and plug-ins
available. Try a Google search for
remove blank pages from scanned
pdf<http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=removeblankpagesfromscanned+pdf&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8>
This will bring up a few different solutions.
Another way is to use JavaScript to find text. You say that these documents
are OCRed, so if you have a blank page, it should not have any text on it.
With some JavaScript, you can identify pages that don't contain text. This
may however fail if you have a page that contains just e.g. a photographic
image. There won't be any text, but the page is certainly not blank.
