I cannot save data on a pdf on my tablet since most recent update

I use Adobe reader on my Galaxy Note 8 to do audits. I fill in with forms with stylus. Since the update I cannot save any data to forms. The "Save" button, previously in upper right hand corner of screen, is gone. There is only a check mark on the screen. I thought that was to save, but it doesn't work.

"Stylus mode" -- Are you referring to the "Freehand" annotation tool?  It is available regardless of whether you use a stylus or not.
In the previous version, the Freehand annotation toolbar looked like this.
The Save button above is used to commit a particular annotation change.  Please note that it does not save other changes (e.g. filling out form fields) that have been made to a PDF document.
In the latest version 11.4, it now looks like this.
Once you add a Freehand annotation to a PDF document, you can tap the checkmark icon to commit the change.  Do you see the change that you've just made on a page? 
Are any changes (not just addition of Freehand annotations) lost once you close the PDF document?
If none of the changes you've made have been saved automatically, it is highly likely that you encountered a known problem in Adobe Reader for Android.
Your PDF document is locally stored on an external SD card (not internal storage).
Your Android OS version is 4.4 (KitKat).
Adobe Reader cannot save any changes to the files on an external SD card due to the major Android OS changes to SD card permissions on KitKat.  We are still working on fixing the problems.  In the meantime, please copy the files from your external SD card to your device's internal storage (e.g. /storage/emulated/0/Documents/...) using a File Manager/Browser app or use a cloud storage service (Acrobat.com, Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.) to store files.
Please let us know if you need further assistance.  Sorry for the inconvenience.

  • Since most recent update of Firefox, I cannot connect to my printer; it says it is off-line, which it is not. HP Photosmart C5580

    A couple of days ago, I was notified of an update to Firefox. I declined because the details said it was incompatible with some features of my computer. The next time I logged on, the update processed automatically; I had no control. Since then, my HP C5580 printer is treated as off-line; it is not, works fine in test mode, and all connections are tight. I can not figure out what settings are messed up.
    I am not a computer genius, and am not able to be sure that is was the Firefox update that caused the problem. However, this is the only change that has been done to the computer. Is there a way to see if there is an incompatabilty?

    I have also noticed all my settings won't stay set, example....I removed the check mark from "third party cookies", the when I close Firefox and reopen the check mark is back, also my tool bar has screwed up....can't reset, been having trouble the up grade.

  • Why do some people get "you cannot save data typed into this form" using FormsCentral fillable PDF?

    Hello.  We're using FormsCentral extensively.  We create the fillable PDF and send it to about 80 people.  Each of them is adding content and saving and then passing on to another person for further content.  Ultimately, all parties are happy with the content and submit.  The problem is that some of the people open the PDF and get the message ""you cannot save data typed into this form".  What is causing this?  Please help as it is causing us many problems.

    Thanks for the quick response.  We distribute the form to 80 people who fill it out and create 80 versions.  They then pass the form to one other person who edits.  All 80 forms, once complete, are submitted to FormsCentral.
    I think the problem is with Mac users.  Is there anything unusual about the Mac with Adobe Reader?  If you provide your email address, I can send you one of the filled out forms that is having this issue.  It's quite odd in that the fillable fields don't show up until clicked on and the form is not saveable.
    Thanks!

  • Some able to save data in my pdf, some are not...

    I have created a pdf for company use - it's a purchase order form - and about half the company can open it, edit it, save their data, and email it back: perfect. The other half are unable to save to the document. They can open it and fill it out, but they can't save the data anywhere. Some of those having troubles are using macs, some are using PC. Help!

    This may not be an implied share issue. Check out this except from the Hyperion Planning Admin Guide:
    Caution!
    Do not design data forms in which label-only parents follow their first child member, as you cannot save data in the first child member. Instead, create data forms with label-only parents selected before their children, or do not select label-only parents for data forms.
    To see if this is really your problem, remove the label-only parent from the form. Try your save again, and it will work.
    Another way to test this is by recreating your form in the Excel add-in. If your save works in the add-in, but not in the form, this is your problem (and it's not an implied share issue, which would also affect the spreadsheet add-in).
    Hope this helps,
    - Jake

  • I cannot save data typed into an Adobe form sent to me..??

    I have been sent an Adobe Form that is a Tender Document that I need to complete.  When I open the Document is states in the top left-hand corner the following...."Please fill out the following form.  You cannot save data typed into this form. 
    Please print your completed form if you would like a copy for your records."
     

    What does the creator of the file need to do to make the form fillable? OR is there a program Bob8527 can download to fill in the form and email?
    Please advise.
    Thanks

  • You cannot save data typed into this form

    Hi,
    I created a small interactive form using transaction SFP and I included this form into a WDA application.
    The data I am pushing from the system into the form is visualized, but there is also an error message stating:
    You cannot save data typed into this form.
    Please print your completed form if you would like a copy for your records.
    At first I thought something was wrong with my credentials, but after requesting new credentials this message still appears.
    Does anybody know what is causing this message and how I can fix it?
    Thanks
    Mario

    Hi.
    1. Are you able to generate an interactive form with the save option through a report program or by WDJ or were you able to view an interactive form by any means with your current credential configuration -> i am asking this coz eventhough you have the right credential, cases can be that it is not properly installed. (check out the standard WDA examples)
    2. try using ZCI and xACF layouts. (for ZCI generate the scripts)
    3 . Check if the form properties is set to interactive form.
    4. Check if you have the generated xml in the interface of your form.
    Hope you have checked these already.
    Rgds,
    Anto.

    Hello,
    There are two different things here, an OS update and a software update.
    Mac OS X 10.5 is the version of OS while the .8 at the end is the software update (release patches)
    The most current software update for Mac OS X 10.5 is 10.5.8
    No more software updates available. You would need to upgrade the OS, which would be to Mac OS X 10.6
    Your new iPhone 5 would require iTunes 10.6 which is only available for OS X version 10.6.8 or later.
    Your would therefore need to upgrade your Macbook to this version of OS.
    It maybe brought on DVD via Apple directly (Contact Apple ) or using any good online vendor like Amazon.
    Best of luck

  • Downloading images used to go automatically to the last folder used to save images, even when reopening Firefox. In just the past few days, possibly coinciding wih the most recent updates, the folder defaults to the 'Downloads' folder. This is most annoyi

    Downloading images used to go automatically to the last folder used to save images, even when reopening Firefox. In just the past few days, possibly coinciding wih the most recent updates, the folder defaults to the 'Downloads' folder. This is most annoying. What happened? Internet Explorer 8.0 did the same thing. This was one of the reasons why I started using Firefox to download all images. I went into Tools>Options and it only lets me set another folder. I dont want to set a specific folder I want it to always go to the last folder used. So what gives?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == possibly when the most recent updates were installed, a few days ago

    Thanks jscher 2000. I guess I didn't make it clear. "It restarts with all the addons activated, and resumes with the tabs that were open before closing it." IE, it's running fine now with all the extensions activated. Everything is OK now.
    So something in the Firefox code was causing the bad behavior. It's not essential that I find out what the problem was - I'm just curious. And if anybody else has this same problem, it might be nice to have it corrected at the source.

  • After the most recent update, I can no longer access stand alone GPS services. What's up with that? I am now forced to use google location services which use up some of my data allotment.

        ddmathias, I want to make sure all services are working correctly on your phone. What GPS services were you using before the update happened? What kind of issues are you having with the services? Do you get any kind of errors? Please keep us posted.

  • I cannot open camera raw in photoshop on my mac computer.  I have the most recent updates and was wondering what I should do next.

    I have downloaded the most recent updates on my computer to Photoshop and to Bridge and I am still unable to open images in camera raw to edit them.  When I try to open the "Camera Raw Preferences" in Bridge, nothing happens.  Could this be a problem with my computer and not the software?  Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated. 

    Sorry, I cannot take your word for your "the most recent updates".  Very often users think they have the latest and greatest and it turns out they are wrong.
    Please specify EXACT version numbers.
    Also, more info is needed.
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop and of Bridge, machine specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.

  • Dynamic pdf up to 200 images, the size of pdf is larger, cannot save data and images to the form

    Hi all,
    My client would like to dynamic images up to 200 pictures to my forms. It is working fine. However, when I add images up to 35 images. I could not add images to the form any more. Then, I save data on the form. All images and data typed on the form are disappeared. I don't know reason.
    If I only add 10 images - I can save data and images on the form. The size of pdf is 15456 kb.  I was unable to  add more pictures or data on the form.
    Maybe there are problem the size of pdf? How much size can an dynamic pdf  limited?
    Can we save the information and images as much as we want?
    I have spent 2 weeks to work and try to figure out this problem. However it is not successful.
    Please help,
    Cindy

    You should ensure, that your users do not import big images.
    Therefore you can use a script on the change event of an image field which checks the data size and warns the user if the file is too big.
    function formatNumber(number) {
        var num = number + '',
        x = num.split('.'),
        x1 = x[0],
        x2 = x.length > 1 ? '.' + x[1] : '',
        rgx = /(\d+)(\d{3})/;
        while (rgx.test(x1)) {
            x1 = x1.replace(rgx, '$1' + ',' + '$2');
        return x1 + x2 + "KB";
    var sizeLimit = 200, //allow upto 200KB images
      thisSize = Math.round((this.value.oneOfChild.value.length * 3 / 4) / 1024);
    if (sizeLimit > 0) {
      if (thisSize > sizeLimit) {
      xfa.host.messageBox("Note: With " + formatNumber(thisSize) + " the size of the imported image is greater that the recommended maximum of " + formatNumber(sizeLimit) + ".\nLarge images can cause a insufficent performance.\n\nIf possible, use images with the following recommended specs:\nFormat:\t\tPNG or JPG\nColor depth:\t8 Bit (higher is not supported)\nColor space:\tRGB (CMYK is not supported)\nFile Size:\t\t" + formatNumber(sizeLimit), "Recommended image size exceeded", 3, 0);

  • Cannot save data in form create in acrobat

    We have a form created in Acrobat 9 pro and it is setup so that it can be filled out and saved in Adobe Reader 11. We use this form on our small business domain and most of the time the form will save but lately we see an error that tells us very little just "Unexpected Error Occurred" and then no matter what you do you cannot save the form data. It's setup with a master form, then they save it individually by a new name. When this error occurs we just can't save it, nor can we print it! It's as if the data isn't there any more. I'm not sure what is happening but was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this.

    Hi,
    First of all, check the PDF producer of your form. Open Form in Acrobat -> Go to File -> Properties -> Look for PDF Producer in "Description" (Tab).
    1. If your form is created by Acrobat then Reader XI should be able to save the form.
    2. If it is created by LC Designer then you need extend the rights for Reader in the form.
    For Acrobat 9 Pro --
    Go to Advanced > Extended Features in Adobe Reader

  • Ability to save data on fillable pdf within a broswer

    I am not sure if this is the right place to post, please let me know if it is not.
    I make forms for internal use at my company, and most people tend to fill in forms via browser.  Ever since my department has upgraded to CS5 from CS3, nobody could save data anymore if it is open from web browser. So in order to save the data and send forms back to my department, the end users have to Save Target as to download to their desktop then fill it in then send it to us.
    The only solution I can think of is to zip all pdfs and that forces the end users to download to the desktop for them to fill in.
    Was this changed since CS5 or updates to Adobe Reader plug-ins? Also I've come across LiveCycle extension, and I am not clear on that. I would have to install this extension on our webs erver to let the end users to save?
    Thanks
