Need help switching from LiveCycle to Distiler.

Hey, guys.  Total n00b here.  I am having problems selecting Distiller as my default form editor.
My PC runs:
XP Pro Service Pack 3
Office Pro 2003
Acrobat Pro 9
Last week I could not print anything doe to an error with my print spooler.  Microsoft's suggestion was to edit the registry and remove all 3rd party print software.  I am assuming this created a hit on Acrobat's functionality.  In the past when I would edit fields, Distiller was my default choice.  But ever since my registry hack, when I Go to Forms >> to edit, I no longer am able to use Distiller.  My default is now LiveCycle Designer 8.2.  I would like to go back to using Distiller, but I do not know how to change back.  Is there something really, really easy I'm missing here, or do I simply need to uninstall and reinstall the entire Acrobat Pro 9 package?  I have confirmed that Distiller is still installed on my machine.
I followed this Microsoft KB article if anyone thinks this will help.

Thanks!

Michael,
Thanks for your response.  Unfortunately, I do not know a lot about the teminology associated with, or the functionality of Acrobat, but the person I'm trying to help knows even less.  I'm sure this is probably a really simple fix, but that I'm not describing what's going on well enough for someone to figure this one out.  I'll post the e-mail that I received about the situation:
Almost all seems to be running well. There is still a delay when I send a job to the printer, happens - but slowly.
The problem I do have is that now when I open a pdf, under forms drop down it only allows me to edit the form with Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.2, not thru Distiller or Acrobat as I could last week……Designer does not import or save(bring with it) any data already entered on the form. Before I could, with the click of a button, switch back and forth between entering information on the form and editing the form and its fields.
I don’t know if this is something that occurred as a default or exactly where Designer came from. I don’t mind it being there, just want to be able to choose what program I use, and at this time I prefer Acrobat/Distiller.
Please let me know what I need to do to get things back to ‘normal’
Again, thanks again for the respones.  I don't know, but maybe I should just uninstall/reinstall Acrobat and *HOPE* that it is running as it once did.
Thanks!

  • Need help switching from cable modem to DSL

    Howdy all. I've had an iMac for a few months now and I'm still clueless. LOL (PC user for years). Please list all the steps I need to do to switch from dial up to DSL. All help is appreciated and needed.
    Thanks.

    As you dont say where in the world you are it is impossible to give specific information. However this is how it works in the UK. ISP's dont install anything for you. You sign up with the ISP, you purchase a package, this varies from the speed i.e 2mb, 8mb 16mb 20mb per sec.
    You then have options such as unlimited downloads, or a monthly data cap. Then you pay for your first month usually with a debit/credit card and setup a direct debit from your bank account there after. Some contracts are for 12 months others are 3 months and some are 1 month at a time.
    But the thing you need to be aware of in the UK if you already have cable then this usually means you have cable TV and a cable provided phone line. In the UK you cannot get DSL on a cable phone line you have to get a British Telecom line.
    You then provide your BT phone number to the ISP. Then after they process your payment they inform you as to when your line will be activated and then they send you a preconfigured ADSL router. You just then follow the instruction plug it in and it works. Most boxes have WPA setup already and have the password printed on the bottom of the router. An engineer does not come to your house unless the is a problem and they detected a line fault that requires and engineer visit.
    Of course if you are a business you can pay for a engineer visit to setup the network as well but this costs money.
    edit just saw that your location in your profile is listed as 'Mo' where is 'Mo

  • I need help.  Can LiveCycle PDF Generator accept network print jobs from a PCL only source?

    I need help.  Can LiveCycle PDF Generator accept network print jobs from a PCL only source?

    More information about this game:
    The game should generate a random obstacle course for the player. The first column of the grid, however, should consist of all empty pieces, with the exception of the upper left-hand corner, which is the grid location where the player initially resides.
    Enter a loop in which the following things happen (not necessarily in this order):
    Print the current board configuration. Additionally, a key should be printed describing what each piece is.
    Get an action from the user. The player can move up, down, left, or right. Use the following controls: up = 'i', down = 'm', left = 'j', right = 'k'. The player can move at most one block at a time. Of course, if the player tries to move into a spot occupied by an immovable block, the player will not move.
    Inform the player whether they have won, or if they have lost (a player loses if they step on a bomb piece).
    If the player types 'q', the game should terminate.
    I am still stuck on this maze generator stuff.... Please help me....

    If you are not sure of what you are doing,If you are worried about losing anything when doing a major systems upgrade/update,
    Before embarking on a major OS upgrade, it would be wise, advisable and very prudent if you backup your current system to an external connected and Mac formatted Flash drive OR externally connected USB, Thunderbolt or FireWire 800, Mac formatted hard drive. Then, use either OS X Time Machine app to backup your entire system to the external drive OR purchase, install and use a data cloning app, like CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper, to make an exact and bootable copy (clone) of your entire Mac's internal hard drive. This step is really needed in case something goes wrong with the install of the new OS or you simply do not like the new OS, you have a very easy way/procedure to return your Mac to its former working state.
    Older version of CarbonCopyCloner found here.

    Older versions of SuperDuper can be found on the SuperDuper Website and Homepage.
    http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/SuperDuperDescription.html
    Then, determine if your Mac meets ALL minimum system install requirements.

    Snow Leopard upgrade - keeps Photoshop?

  • IWeb help needed in switch from MobileMe to iCloud

    I recently switched from Snow Leopard and Mobile Me to Lion and iCloud. In doing so, I seem to have "lost" iDisk, which is where I stored my public, downloadable files from my iWeb site.
    I found iDisk, but it is not listed in iWeb as a destination source. Where do I now post public files? Thanks in advance for any help.

    Singing up for iCloud automatically logged you out of MMe.  Just go to the System/MMe preference pane and log back into MMe.  iWeb will then be able to communicate with the iDisk server again.

  • I need help switching back to iPhoto

    In February of this year I switched from iPhoto to Aperture for very specific reasons. My laptop's hard drive was running out of space, as it was housing my photo library that was quickly approaching 25,000 photos and pushing about 30 Gigabytes, and I wanted to take advantage of Aperture's ability to store photo masters on an external drive.
    So why switch back? When I described why I had switched and my experiences doing so back in February I had said that I ran into many problems all of which I was able to solve save two:
    "The two things I have yet to solve, which are rather large things: 1) Spotlight can no longer find my photos since switching to [edit: from] iPhoto. I am really not sure where to start with fixing this so I think I’m just going to have to ask someone. 2) Reorganizing my keywords in Aperture (since I had them set up in iPhoto) is impossible. When I bring up the Keywords HUD, I’m greeted with all of my keywords residing subordinately to a master keyword of 'iPhoto'. When I try to access the keywords that are “below” iPhoto Aperture freezes. Perhaps I have too many keywords (I do have an awful lot). I’m not sure how to solve this one yet either. Maybe there is a raw .plist file that I can manually edit (and I am willing to do so)." -- Me.
    After using Aperture for the past 3+ months I've yet to resolve either of these issues. Recently there was an update to Aperture from Apple that, according to the documentation for the update, was supposed to help resolve my second issue with having too many keywords for Aperture to handle - but it hasn't helped much. So since switching to Aperture I've not tagged more than maybe fifty photos, which is discouraging because I know that once I switch back to iPhoto I'm going to be busy tagging photos again.
    So I suppose you could say I'm switching back for two main reasons. First, I want it to be much easier to tag my photos since that is probably the single most important thing to me and the experience with iPhoto and Keyword Manager ( http://www.bullstorm.se/KeywordManager.php ) is far superior to that of using keywords in Aperture. Second, I want my photos to start showing up in Spotlight searches again. I'm more than willing to deal with the caveat, albeit a rather large one, that I won't have my photos with me wherever I go anywhere but that they'll forever reside on my firewire drive.
    What I need help with...
    When I open iPhoto I see all of the previews for the photos that I had the day I switched to Aperture. However, the originals have been moved by Aperture onto my firewire drive - so when I click on each photo all I get is a ( ! ) symbol. The previews still reference a file that does not exist yet the iPhoto database still retains all of the relevant metadata (date/time, keywords, comments, etc) that I had worked so hard to put into iPhoto. I need to retain this information and somehow get the originals back into place so that iPhoto sees them again.
    What I thought about doing was this: 1) Somehow restore the originals for the almost 25,000 photos into the place where iPhoto thinks they should be. 2) Move the entire library to my external firewire drive. 3) Import the remaining images that I've taken since switching to Aperture into iPhoto.
    Since I have Aperture store my photos by date - importing only the images that I've imported into Aperture should be a piece of cake. I do not need to retain any metadata from Aperture since I've only tagged a few photos in Aperture and all of the other information I may need should be on the original file (like date taken, etc.). I know I'm going to lose a lot of edits that I've done like cropping, rotating, color balancing, red-eye reduction, etc. but I'm more than willing to lose all of that if it means that I can pick up where I left off and get back into the swing of things in iPhoto.
    I've Googled like crazy and haven't found someone doing exactly what I'm trying to accomplish so any help with my current situation is greatly appreciated. I've also posted this on my blog http://cdevroe.com/notes/back-to-iphoto/

    2) Reorganizing my keywords in Aperture (since I had them set up in iPhoto) is impossible. When I bring up the Keywords HUD, I’m greeted with all of my keywords residing subordinately to a master keyword of 'iPhoto'.
    Bear with me, my terminology may not be right. I'm heading in the opposite direction, and one of the advantages i see to Aperture is that I've got the same advantages in Keyword management as I have with KM in iPhoto.
    Have you tried re-organising them using the control bar: Below the thumbs there's a drop down menu, by default it shows Photo Descriptors. Click on it and Select 'Edit Buttons'. You can merrily re-organise your Keywords in this window, and even have your changes reflected in live in the HUD.
    As to the Spotlight searching, I'm afraid someone else will need to help on that one. Personally - and it's a regular on the iPhoto forums - I've never had much luck getting Spotlight to search within iPhoto for keywords, apart, of course, from using the search window in the iPhoto Window. I suspect a system-based search of iPhoto keywords is simply not possible.
    What I thought about doing was this: 1) Somehow restore the originals for the almost 25,000 photos into the place where iPhoto thinks they should be.
    That will work, but they'll need to be exactly as they were.
    2) Move the entire library to my external firewire drive.
    Easily done, after you've copied it over launch iPhoto holding down the option (or alt) key and choose 'Locate'. Navigate to the new location and that''ll be your default iPhoto Library Folder thereafter.
    3) Import the remaining images that I've taken since switching to Aperture into iPhoto.
    That should work too.
    But the key is, can you return the iPhoto Library Folder exactly as it was, otherwise you'll need to create and populate a new library - and that will inevitable mean losing your keywords in iPhoto too.
    FWIW, I need to keep iPhoto going for others in the household who are daunted by Aperture. My solution is a referenced library pointing towards the iPhoto Library Folder / Originals folder.

  • Need help migrating from Cinewave to Kona

    Our graphics department is preparing to switch from the discontinued Cinewave RT (v 4.6) to a Kona 2. The Cinewave RT is currently installed on a G5 running FCP HD (4.5). The Kona is on a G5 running FCP 5.
    Our problem is with the gigabytes of clips that were created with the Cinewave. They are in Targa Cine YUV16 codec. When we try to play these clips in QuickTime Player, we get a white screen with no audio. Final Cut Pro 5 shows the clips as black, and reports that they need to be rendered. But they won't render.
    Is there any way for us to convert these clips so that they're compatible with the Kona 2 and beyond, short of dumping them to tape, or SDI to SDI?
    Please help!!

    Talked to AJA about that today....
    That codec the 2Vuy codec is for 8 bit video...
    The codec used on this Cinewave footage (RT V4.6) was:
    Targa CineYUV16, which is a 10 bit codec.
    We kinda found a way to do it, but it involves bringing it into FCP, with copmressor setting to match input filetype, and then Saving As, and selecting the compressor format that we normally use, then starting anew with the now-converted files.
    Is there any clip conversion programs that will convert clips from one codec format into another, Say, put the files needing-to-be-converted in one folder, and having it convert those files to the same codec type (that our Kona 2 card is set for) and place them in a different folder, keeping the same filenames?
    A file conversion program would seem to be a better approach, but I'm not smart in those types of programs....

  • Need help changing from CC package to Photoshop only

  • Help - switch from entourage to mail before or after Lion upgrade?

    I want to upgrade to os x Lion. I also want to switch from Entourage (2008) to Mail with this upgrade. Should I switch to Mail in Snow Leopard, then do the Upgrade to Lion?

    Entourage will NOT work with Lion. If you switch to Lion first, you will NOT be able to easily, or perhaps at all, get your Entourage data.
    Definitely switch to Mail first. Move all of MSFT programs' data that depend on Rosetta to some other program. Only after you have done that and tested the solution should you upgrade to Lion.
    I didn't.

    You may want to rethink your plan to use a Time Capsule disk for both Time Machine backups (if that's what you mean) and other data. By its design Time Machine will eventually consume all the space on that disk.
    This Time Machine FAQ http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1964018 may have useful information for you.
