I was able to create a digital signature for someone else and use it. How is that protected??

I was able to create a digital signature for my boss who's on vacation using his email address. I figured when I used the signature he would get some sort of email confirmation letting him know, but he got nothing. So it seems like I could create a signature for anyone and use it on any document without their knowledge. What's the protection against anyone creating a signature for anyone else and using it whenever?? Am I missing something??

A digital signature can not be used to verify someone's identity. I can create a signature using anyone's name and email address. In fact, those things are irrelevant to the signature. The only thing that matters is the key used to create it, and therefore to verify it.

Create electronic-digital signature for data

Hello
As possible create electronic-digital signature for data, referred through HTTP form internet explorer?
Thank you very much for your support.

George,
Thank you for your submission. It was helpful. This allowed me to create the signature block without having to place my own digital signature in the block. However, when I send it to my client (who has Adobe Reader but not Acrobat) she is unable to input her digital signature … I’m now half-way there but I continue to pursue a solution.

What are the tools to create a digital magazine for ipad version and how can be place it in newsstand?

Hello..
"what are the tools to create a digital magazine for ipad version and how can be place it in newsstand?"
I am very tired after done a week of R&D on this issue..
But i doesn't get any fair solution for this one..
I hope this is best option to place my issue here to get quick solution..
Thanks and Regards..

We are all users here.
There is no one here from Apple.
In order for you to develop and distribute content for the iPad, you need to become an apps developer.
Not sure where you sign up for this or who you have to call.
There should be a place on Apple's site that refers to a section of the site if you want to be an Apple iOS content developer.
It cost, I believe $99 U.S. to become an Apple apps developer. You'll agree to Apple's Non-disclosure rules. You'll receive Apple's app/software developers kit,and access to Apple's app developer site.
No one here is going to be able to help you.
Good Luck.

Yes, you can. Sites published with BusinessCatalyst or to an FTP host can be edited by clients. Here is a short tutorial about the new In-Browser Editing feature: In-browser Editing | Adobe Muse CC tutorials

Digital Signature for Inspection Plan and Routing

Hi,
Can someone please help me on the topic of how to activate Digital Signature for inspection plan changes. I need to activate Digital signature functionality for inspection plan or routing. Please guide me to any link or shared documents on this topic.
Thanks
Vineeth

Hi Vineeth,
Standard SAP does not support this. Though I came across similar situation for maintenance plan, where we used BADI for this.
Try to go through DIG_SIGNATURE_MAINT_PLAN. Consult with a good ABAPer if he can modify it some how for inspection plan.
The links below may help you to understand the functionality [http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SAPMDM/E-SIGNATUREforMaintenancePlants-MasterData(ECC6.0)] & [http://www.consolut.com/en/s/sap-ides-access/d/s/doc/YN-IF_EX_IPRM_DIG_SIGNATURE~~~~~~DIG_SIGNATURE_MAINT_PLAN]
In SAP, check BADI_DIG_SIG_RES_REC_PROCESS, if anything can be done here.

Any ideas on a good way to create a digital album for photos, videos and text info?

I would like to create on my iMac an electronic album that has pages that allow me to place text, a thumbnail that would activate a video, and some text to explain the contents? I have looked at a variety of multimedia software like Powerpoint and am testing Googles Picaca but so far none look to do the job.

True that no two monitors ever match ... that's why engineers claim that NTSC really stands for Never Twice the Same Color. But the point of NOT using a consumer set for critical monitoring is that almost all consumer sets are designed to "correct" the incoming image somewhat (depending on model). So what you're seeing isn't necessarily what you really have in FCP.
On the other hand, a properly calibrated and aligned pro monitor doesn't add or take away from the image so what you see on the screen is going to be pretty darn accurate.
The same applies with audio monitors. Don't use consumer speakers that "color" the sound. Use reference monitors that are design to output the real sound as it was intended.
Once all the color grading and audio tweaking is done, then feel free to view on any consumer set that you want. Or view both at the same time while editing. That's why I use the Samsung 36" LCD.
if you are a male you have some color blindness. All males do, that's why the colorists at the BBC are all female.
Now that I know that, I finally understand why women know so many different color shades while most guys only know the typical Crayola 12.

Can I create an iTunes account for someone else?

I just bought an ipod for my parents, who are not exactly techno-savy. I was wondering if it would be possible to create an iTunes account on my computer, get their music collection started, and then mail the ipod to them with all the account info so they can just log in and go. Is this possible?

Yes.

I have a iPhone, and iPad. I just got a iPod. I want to create a new account for the iPod and use the same credit card information. Is this possible?

I have an iPhone, and IPad. I just got a iPod. I want to create a new apple ID for the iPod so I can access face time and messages separately. However can I use the same credit card account?

Just do it. You can use the same credit card for multiple accounts.

Create an excel template for a report and open it always in that template

Hi,
I've a question. I have a report in BI Answers. I would export it in BI Publisher and create for it an excel template which contains any text and a macro. Then I would associate report to the template so that when i open report in BI Publisher, it appears in my template document and i can apply macro.
It's possible?
All regards

With a new account, you'll need to rebuy the games.
Each user should have their own icloud account, otherwise they end up getting the same emails, contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc. - usually not what you want. But if all have been sharing the same itunes ID, keep it that way, you can have different IDs for itunes and icloud.
If you already have another icloud account, and want to set it up on a device, then go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account. This only disconnects the device from that account, no data is lost on icloud. Then enter the account ID that you want to use.
To create a new icloud account, go to

How do I create a digital signature on a TCP or a UDP flow?

I am trying to convert samples of a voice signal, which is intercepted from the microphone, into fixed length digital signature bytes (using Hash, or) and attach these fixed length bytes to a communication session between two terminals (UDP or TCP "HTTP"). The other receving end should be able to identify the person at the sending side.
Any thoughts how I could do this?
Any help is most appreciated.
Sam

Sam,
If you have the Sound and Vibration toolkit it may make some things easier for you regarding the voice-recording aspect, but if you aren't recording and playing back the actual sounds, just using this for detection and digital signatures, you shouldn't need to worry about this.
1. For this you are going to be doing some form of Analog Input. Then you will be storing this data to a file. There are examples for both of these aspects in the NI Example Finder from within LabVIEW.
2. If you are going to be doing the FFT, there is a VI under the Mathematics Palette that performs this operation. Again you can use the same example for saving data to the file.
3. You would need to figure out what needs to be done to create a digital signature for this. There may be something in the Sound and Vibration toolkit for this, but I do not know.
4. For the UDP or TCP transfers, there are several examples for doing this and they cover how to create the connection and transfer / receive data. These too are in the NI Example Finder
5. This goes back to number 4, this would indeed be a separate program, but everything else would just be one project and one program.
6. This would depend on how the ID was created in step 3, again whether you do the algorithm on yourself or not. For comparing to the table, you would use a Search Array and some comparison functions, all depending on how you stored the data initially.
7. Graphs are all available on your Front Panel of your VIs and you would just wire up the data that you'd like and have it displayed on the graph.
There will not be an example for everything that you are wanting to do. The examples are meant to help you get started. Have you used LabVIEW before? I would recommend doing the 3 Hour LabVIEW Introduction Course to help you get started. This will cover some of the basic concepts that you will need to know in order to create your application.
Unfortunately I cannot write the code for you, only guide and direct you. LabVIEW is a programming language and does require the user to lay out and create their own program. You will not be able to just find three or four pre-built code-snippets and connect them together to get your appliction working the way you want it. You will need to develop the applications yourself.

How can I create digital signatures for my users using Windows 2008 Active Directory Certificate Services?

Hi,
I need to create local digital signatures for my users. How can I do that using W2k8 Active Directory Certificate Services? We are gonna sign Office 2010 documents.
What company offers cheap digital signatures solutions?
Thanks in advanced

Consider the following:
if you use your local CA server to issue digital signature certificates, there is no cost, because you are eligible to issue so many certificates as you need. However, documents signed by these certificates will be considered trusted only within your AD
forest and other machines that explicitly trust your local CA. Any external client will not trust your signatures.
If you want to make your signature trusted outside your network (say, in worldwide), you need to pruchase a certificate from trusted commercial CA (VeriSign, GoDaddy, GlobalSign, StartCom, etc) according to respective vendor price list. In that case you
don't need to have your local CA server, because it is not used. All certificate management is performed by the external CA. A most common scenario is to purchase signing certificate for particular departament principals (head managers) or few certificates
for a whole company (all documents are revised by a responsible person or persons who holds signing certificate and sign them after review).
so, it is not clear from your post what exactly you need.

Can I create digital signatures for other people?

I am trying to determine if there are rules/software limitations that prohibit me from creating a digital signature for other people on my PC. As an example, I support a Vice President-can I create his digital signature and store it to use on his behalf? I would also have my own signature created and stored. Thanks.

Digital Signatures for mutliple company code

Hi,
Our client have multiple company codes & they want to use digital signature for all the company code and there be individual authorised digital signatory for each comp code.
Now the question is , whether we have procure different digital signature for individual company codes & if so how system will identifies which authorised ditigatl signature should be assigned to respective company code...?
=> We are not able to download Adobe Form local & aslo is it mandatory to have digital signature to download Form 16 on a local system.
System details : ECC 6
SP Level : 38
Thanks & Regrads,

Digital Signature is person specific
You have to take the Digital signature ( A number assigned for each signatory with the tool),from an authorized services provided by NSDL
In a single company code if you have 2/3 signatories , first you need to make groups based on the signing authorities, in combination of PA/PSA/EG/ESG/BA etc
The form 16 is to be generated on the above criteria applicable.
3 file of form16 will be generated and send accross to 3 signing authorities
The signing authority can open the form using the tool ,digitial signatory software install and can authenticate the form16.
As per NSDL form16 is now not an statuory doucment. Its just an Tax Information of an Employee.
which is not required to be attached with your ITR's also
So why do you require the Digital signature to be printed on the form16 . Pls check this up with your finance team
Thansk & Regards

Digital signatures for calibration inspection (inspection type 14)

Hi,
I want to use digital signatures for results recording and usage decision (ud) when performing a calibration (inspection type 14). Normally you'd set-up the material authorization for digital signatures. But this can't be added to maintenance plans or equipment. Is there any way to set-up digital signatures for calibrations?
