New to pdf... how do i make sure my document is only fillable and can't be changed when opened?

I am new to Adobe, so
forgive the ignorance!  I am waiting for my tutorial cd, but meanwhile am working on a form.
I have completed the fields (best I know how), but want to make sure that if someone has any Adobe program other than just 'Reader' that they cannot change the form, but just fill out and print it or can do a "save as" and rename it.
I know you can 'clear form' if it is saved and save it again blank, but I am wondering what options there might be to safeguard anyone doing this that I may send it to.
Thanks so much for any input!
(hope I can find my way back to see my answers)

Bobby,
Thank you!  I looked at your link and found some more help there.  I am sooooo new to all this that I don't even know what Live cycle is... I see it in my 9 pro menu, but am not sure what to do with it... it only has "refresh security properties' as a selection... all else is greyed out.
for now, I just locked all my cells necessary and made Read only... then put a security with a password only allowing filling and printing ( I selected high resolution printing.. hope that is what the majority can do) and left it at that.
All of these things like "envelopes", "certificate" and so on for security is beyone me.... I am sure I will get there when I can take the course I have signed up for in a month, but for now... it is learn on my own.... It is kind of funny, when you are not even that technology savvy to figure out what some of the explanations are even talking about!  I appreciate all the help!
Thanks so much!

  • How to make sure I'm the only one who can manage my airport base station using airport utility?

    I know we have to use the Airport Utility application to manage the Airport base station in order to create a new network, creating the SSID and chosing the encryption mode and setting the password but how I could be sure I'm the only one who have access to those settings? A user of my network can install the Airport Utility application and change those settings. With other routers like D-Link, to have access to the settings you need to know the admin password to modify the settings. I can't figure out how we can do this with Airport Extreme base station. It's maybe obvious but I'm in the cloud for the moment.

    You can set a base station administrator password in order to limit who can administer the base station. With AirPort Utility v6.x, you can set this password on the Base Station tab.

    Hello Saethwyr99,
    ''Do I just do it by copying the places.sqlite file within that XP profile over into my USB flash drive, then replacing the places.sqlite in the Winodws 7 profile with the one from the other one?''
    you are correct : [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Recovering%20important%20data%20from%20an%20old%20profile#w_your-important-data-and-their-files Your important data and their files]
    ''Also, random sites in every month scattered all over the list of URLs will just disappear, and random sites that I've only visited in the past couple days will insert themselves randomly into much older months of history, which makes it hard to figure out the URLs I've seen, this last one seems like a common problem from what I've read, and all of these problems seem to be slowly creeping into my Windows 7 as well when they were originally on only my XP.''
    from Firefox 4 and above versions there is not a time limit for the history.
    Firefox determines automatically how many pages can be kept '''without affecting the performance.'''
    ''as well as view all the old expired and/or manually deleted history on my Windows 7''
    i think this in not possible
    ''If I can only keep all my history through installing an add-on, a link to a relevant legal add-on that'll work well on both operating systems would be appreciated.''

  • Hi. how does one make sure photos have been uploaded to I cloud

    trying to update to IOS 8 on my iphone 4s from IOS 7.1.2. cannot due to storage requirements. asking me to delete items. what should I do?  most are photos  how do I make sure they are now in cloud and can be safely deleted from phone storage.

    Be very careful.
    Only the last 1000 photos maximum are stored in iCloud and for a maximum of 30 days.
    In the new version of iCloud Photo Library (which is in Beta) it will keep all photos, but you are not using that version yet as you need iOS 8 installed to do that.
    The best thing to do is connect your iPhone to your computer and transfer the photos from the photo to your computer.
    The instructions on how to do it are here:
    Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC

  • I got a new computer. How do I make this the primary pc for all of my apple devices?

    I purchased a new pc. How do I make this the primary pc for iTunes and all of my apple devices? I need to know how to take all Itunes files off old pc and put on new pc. Also, disable old pc.

    Backup your library using this User Tip.
    The same tool can be used to backup other important user data.
    Deauthorise the old computer
    Restore the library into the music folder of your new profile. (Use the same tool as for the backup)
    Install iTunes and sign in to your account.

    Here are some sites for learning html/css. Some sites are getting a bit old, I have not updated the link for the w3.org site yet. But this should point you in the right direction. And make sure your pop up blocker is on, some of these site will open a new window with an ad. I tried to mark as many as I could, but I may have missed a few.

  • I have just switched to samsung and i have removed the sim from the iphone however i am still receiving texts rather 'imessage' on the old iphone. how do i make sure all messages only come to my new phone??

    i have just switched to samsung and i have removed the sim from the iphone however i am still receiving texts rather 'imessage' on the old iphone. how do i make sure all messages only come to my new phone??

    You can turn iMessage off on your iPhone.  That's relatively easy.  Since iMessage is an Apple product/service, I have no idea how a Samsung phone will deal with an incoming one.  For that answer you should probably contact Samsung support.

  • How do I make sure when I sync my i-pod to a new computor I don't lose all my apps , How do I make sure when I sync my i-pod to a new computor I don't lose all my apps

    How do I make sure when I sync my i-pod to a brand new computor I don't lose all my data??

    You copy all your stuff from the only computer to the new computer.  This includes the iPod backup file.  You then restore the iPod from backup on the new computer.

  • HT1751 Not all the music I have in Itunes is in the Itunes library, how do I make sure all is there to transfer to new computer

    I am trying to move my Itunes Library to a different computer. When I put the Itunes library onto the external hard drive it only had a portion of the songs. Alot did not copy over. How do I make sure that all the songs in Itunes are in the Itunes Library stored on my computer?

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

  • How do I delete photos from my daughter's ipod that showed up on there when she got music from her aunt's itunes? Also how do I make sure none of my iphone pics show up on her ipod in the future (we use the same itunes account and I think same icloud).

    I'm totally new to iphone/ipod.  I need help with the following:
    1) How do I get rid of a folder of photos that showed up on my daughter's ipod touch when she received some songs from her aunt's itunes?  After she got some songs from that itunes a folder of pictures showed up with no delete option.  Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?
    2) Also, my daughter uses same itunes as myself, how do I make sure any pics I have on my iphone & icloud (itunes) don't show up on her ipod? I shut off my photostream so perhaps this is the solution.  But I noticed that a message I sent from her ipod to my sister (an iphone user) later showed up on my iphone (as if I had sent it from my iphone)! That was really odd. I'd like to keep our itunes account together simply so I can monitor her downloads, etc so I don't want to open up her own itunes to avoid automatic syncing.
    I only want to share music between our devices.  I don't want her pics nor my pics to go to icloud/itunes.
    Thank you!

    1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.
    iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
    2)
    Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
    Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Then on the iPod go to
    - Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
    - Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that under You can be reached at only her ID email address is listed
    - Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with hers
    Contnue to use the commpn ID/account for Settings>iTunes and App stores.

  • I want to delete my icloud-account from my iphone 5 and then register again, because I want to change my email-address/account name. What would be the steps to follow? How do I make sure I do not lose any information stored on/in my iphone 5?

    I want to delete my icloud-account from my iphone 5 and then register again, because I want to change my email-address/account name. What would be the steps to follow? How do I make sure I do not lose any information stored on/in my iphone 5?

    You would have to delete the existing iCloud account and create a wholly new one - you cannot change the @icloud.com email address of the one you already have.  To make a new one, you will also need an new AppleID as any AppleID can only have one iCloud account associated with it.
    Deleting the account will not delete anything off your device (if prompted for things like contacts, choose to keep them).  You will have to sync everything anew with the new account as you cannot move your sync'd content, your old backups or anything else from one iCloud account to another.  You will have to set up sync again and let it sync to the new account, and then make new backups to the new account as well.

  • When updating to iOS 5.0.1. get the err -3259, thus unable to install new iOS. The message I receive goes: "THE NETWORK CONNECTION TIMED OUT.  MAKE SURE YOUR NETWORK SETTINGS ARE CORRECT AND YOUR NETWORK CONNECTION IS ACTIVE, OR TRY AGAIN LATER."

    When updating to iOS 5.0.1. get the err -3259, thus unable to install new iOS. The message I receive goes: "THE NETWORK CONNECTION TIMED OUT.  MAKE SURE YOUR NETWORK SETTINGS ARE CORRECT AND YOUR NETWORK CONNECTION IS ACTIVE, OR TRY AGAIN LATER."
    Does anyone know how to solve this tiresome problem, please!?? The update is downloaded upto 723.5MB, and is required upto 723,6MB, then the error message pops out! Tnx.

    I have a quick wifi connection (Mac shows it as about 35 megabits) but I couldn't get the 5.0.1 OTA to work, I had to do it via cable to my computer's iTunes - and as I was already on iOS 5 it was only a small download, basically the same size as the OTA size.
    As the original poster is talking about a 730 meg download then I assume that they are still on iOS 4.3.5 or below and can therefore only download via their computer's iTunes - you need to be on iOS 5+ before you get the OTA option.

  • How do I make sure my pictures are being backed up on my photo stream?

    I kept getting notifications every time I charged my phone telling me that I didn't have enough space in iCloud for my phone to be backed up. I deleted the camera roll from being backed up on iCloud because I was told the last 1,000 pictures would automatically be uploaded to my photo stream on iCloud. I was also told that my photo streams do not count against iCloud storage because my phone hadn't been backed up for 11 weeks. How do I make sure my picture are being backed up on my photo stream?

    Photo stream doesn't back up photos, it streams them to your other devices.  Photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days, allowing sufficient time for them to download to your devices/computers.  It is true that photo stream photos don't count against your storage.
    You also shouldn't rely on your backup to save your camera roll if you're going to delete the photos from your phone.  If you delete them, then back up again, the new backup will overwrite the backup containing the deleted photos and they will be lost.
    If you want to save your photos, import them to your computer using your usb cable as explained here: iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer.
