"Import Error" opening password-protected .pptx document

Hi,
It seems Keynote '08 has some difficulty opening a PowerPoint 2007 document which has been password protected. Unhelpfully, it only suggests 'import error' rather than something more meaningful.
I've saved the same document without its password, and Keynote opens it just fine (albeit with the usual warnings about missing fonts).
Is this expected behaviour, or a bug to be fixed? Password-protected documents (however weak the protection) are the norm around here, so Keynote is going to be a bit of a handbrake...
Cheers,
Simon

No, unless there is a third party viewed which can handle the passwords. The in-built viewer is a simple viewer and doesn't support password protected documents at all.
Have a search through the Appshopper website to see if there is something better.

  • Password protected PDF document not opened with E7...

    Dear all,
    Password protected PDF document not opened with nokia E7-00. Previously I used nokia N79, that time I was able to open Password protected PDF file such as bank email statement etc. Now I can't.
    It is quite disappointing with this phone !

    hi mateys,
    you may want to search under "PDF" in the Nokia Store, as some solutions such as Picsel Smart Office exist, where they do open password-protected PDF's.

  • Acrobat XI Pro for OSX can't open password-protected pdfs created using Acrobat 9 Pro for Windows

    I am having problems opening password-protected files created on a PC using Acrobat 9 Pro.  I am running a MacBook Pro OSX 10.8.4 with Acrobat XI Pro.  When I attempt to enter the password when prompted, a dialogue box pops up saying that I've entered the incorrect password.  After many attempts, I am certain that the password entered is correct -- this is reinforced by the fact that i am able to open the same document using Mac's Preview software.
    Any assistance would be appreciated!
    Thanks.

    I was suddenly having the same problem in Acrobat XI Pro for Windows (recently upgraded to CC from Acrobat X).  For the past while I've sometimes had to use the "insert from file" tool to get a page added from another file.  I couldn't figure out why dragging sometimes would no longer work, but was too busy to go looking for a solution until tonight. 
    The solution was given by JoshTatum24 above. Switch from a scrolling page display to single page display.  Now I can drag pages between documents again.  THANK YOU Josh!
    Oh, and CORREAdmin,  it does not matter whether the hand or arrow selection tool is active, my mouse pointer is always an arrow when positioned in the page thumbnails panel.  Switching selection tools does not make a difference in dragging, but switching between scrolling and single page display definitely DOES make the difference.

  • Open Password Protection

    If I create a "Full Text Index..." on a group of pdf's and then go back and set open password protection on one or more of the files and try and search from the indexed file password protected file(s) are not accessable.
    The links to these open password protected files linked and opened in version 7 but no longer do with Acrobat 9 or X, on OS X or Windows.
    Any suggestions?

    Emac1 -
    Open firmware password protection is something to keep the honest person honest but it won't stop someone with a little knowledge and physical access to the inside of the computer. There's also that slight inconvenience when you want to boot off an install disk (to run Disk Utility), or boot into open firmware or single user mode.
    Removal of RAM to zap the PRAM is a commonly discussed method of defeating the open firmware password protection.
    For real protection of your documents, consider inserting sensitive files in an encrypted disk image, just don't forget the password, I've never heard of a hack to defeat and encrypted disk image.

    How can I use my orapwmydb file?

    Hi Marco,
    as far as I know, you have to use the REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE = SHARED option in your init...ora file.
    In this case you have one password file for one or more databases. It can only have the entries for SYS and INTERAL.
    I'm sorry to cannot answer your question of having different password files for different databases %-)

  • Is there a way to password protect a document in the app Pages

    Is there a way to password protect a document in the app Pages?

    I'm using iOS 7.1 on my iPad - and yes, you can click the little spanner (wrench) icon when you're in the document you want to protect, and there's an option "set password" towards the bottom of the menu.

  • Is there a way to password protect iCloud documents?

    Is There a way to password protect iCloud documents on my Mac and on iPad?

    Roger not so fast. Check this out: I own a studio with about 8 staff ranging from accounts, editors, creative directors and client services. Sometimes, there's even an intern or an outside contractor present for a period of time. So far we use pages and numbers to handle all the scripts, schedules, shot lists, etc and I'd like to also store some of the admin contents (again, files generated in pages, begging for iCloud), proposals, budgets... They should at the very least, let you password protect a folder.
    It's so surprising that Apple doesn't simply extend their now FANTASTIC App/iCloud/Device integration ever so slightly in the direction of the SMALL PRODUCTION HOUSE. I have thouroughly investigated everything from Studiometry to Rule to Evernote. Bloat. Bloat. And more bloat!
    Apple while you're at it, offer domain name resolution so we can actually use the email service. Right now half my setup is tangled up with google apps and gmail. I shudder at the thought.
    Ps I'd have separate apple accounts for each employee but nothing beats the single integration of iCal and contacts etc.

  • Unable to open password protected PDF in safari

    Dear all, I'm new in using iPhone safari. I have problem in opening password protected PDF file from safari. Do you have any solution or workaround to resolve this problem
    Regards

    You can put pretty much any character into the encryption password for a PDF file apart from control codes (carriage returns, backspaces, etc), but whether the vendor's website can is another matter!
    As you seem to have a PDF with a user password that isn't what you expected, there's nothing you can do to remove it other than perhaps trying a version without the quote characters, or with a backslash in front of the quote (it's possible they escaped the string on the login form in preparation for storing it in a database, and forgot to unescape it again).

  • Can't open password protected PDF files.

    As per the thread title, I can't seem to open password protected PDF files via the Mail app.
    I've read that you can open them if they're synced and opened via iBook, however, this is not an option for me.
    I get sent several password protected PDF for work per week and would like to be able to read them directly from the Mail app just like a regular PDF file.
    Does Apple know of this issue and will they implement a fix in the near future?

  • Password protecting a document

    How can I password protect a document in Pages so that only I can access it when I provide my password? Thanks!

    p,
    In iWork 09, we can apply a password in the Document Inspector, Document Tab. In iWork 08, we use Disk Utility.app to create a secure folder to save our work in. So, the file itself isn't protected, but access to the folder it is stored in is very secure.
    To make a secure folder, start Disk Utility and click on New Image on the Tool Bar. Name the folder, select a Volume Size that's larger than you might ever need, leave the Volume Format on the default, set the Encryption to the lower number of bits (recommended), Single Partition, Image Format > Sparse Disk Image.
    Don't forget your password because the encryption is such that you'll never crack it and your work will be lost with the password. If you use a secure User Account password to access your account on the computer, you can have Keychain remember your disk image password for convenience. If you carry your work around on a flash drive, you won't have to worry about anyone reading it if you lose the drive.
