Odd Acrobat Problem - Fill Boxes in Indd show in Preview, not in Acrobat

HELP!
I've never seen this before. I often use InDesign to create presentations. I set a master page with a black background, then do my document and print to PDF and show as slides/full page preview.
Yesterday I followed all my normal steps and the black boxes set as background on the master page didn't print. I removed them and added them to the page itself, didn't work. I finally had to create a black box in illustrator and copy it into InDesign to get it to work properly. I have no idea.
The weirder thing: the black box shows up in Apple Preview but not in Acrobat.
HELP. I am running 10.5.3 and CS3

Search and delete these two files:
com.adobe.acrobat.80.sh.plist
com.adobe.Acrobat.Pro_ppc_8.0.plist
And see how it works for you. You'll need to reset your preferences when done.
Just had that same issue this week with a gray box on a master page. It was visible in Reader 8, Preview and all older versions of Reader or Acrobat but not Acrobat 8.

Most likely your phone is carrier locked to a different carrier than the SIM card you're using. It will activate and operate only with the carrier to which it's locked.

Hello, Oliver Chu.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are experiencing an issue with the performance of Safari. I would start with clearing Safari History and Website Data. If the issue persists, you may need to take a look at the troubleshooting steps in the second article.
Reset Safari
Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues

Am using Adobe acrobat for iPad and pictures are showing JPEG and not PDFs

I Am using Adobe reader for iPad and converted pictures from camera to ipad and pictures are showing JPEG and not pdf

Hi bsmigs23,
I'm not sure that I follow. You have the Adobe Reader app for iOS, and converting photos to PDF? Where are the photos showing up as JPEG? Do you see the converted PDFs when you look at the Recents List?
Best,

'show icon preview' not working, Icon preview no longer visible

I have lots of folders full of jpg files. The preview icon do longer appears and all i get is the genetic icon. This happened randomly yesterday and I don't know how to fix it. I have the 'Show Icon Preview' enabled yet I only get the generic icon. Any ideas why? (OS X 10.5.8). I have tried a restart, permissions fix, and reindexed my hard drive with spotlight. No luck. Please help!
Simply: I don't know how to get the preview back even after selecting the "show icon preview" box on the options. HELP!

There probably are some hidden probable causes for this behavior;
while not knowing if you perform any general maintenance in a
preventative way for your OS X system, some of the suggestions
I could provide here may mean little or nothing to some users, or
to others, who have done them for years as a matter of course, to
suggest those could be the same as an insult; or a laughing matter.
You could try rather basic things, a few steps above 'repair disk
permissions' in Disk Utility. That's been around since OS 10.1.5.
And it has a place among other steps one can do to help out.
Sometimes, you can start up into SafeBoot mode; then choose to
run Disk Utility, and repair disk permissions. When done, quit D.U.
and restart the computer normally. - Other repairs to the system may
be performed by booting up from the OS X installer and run Disk
Utility from the menu drop-down options in the main Installer window.
You can repair disk, verify disk (SMART verify), repair disk permissions
and verify disk permissions. Plus other aspects of Disk utility that are
tools to set up partitions and other things beyond a basic simple fix.
SafeBoot mode, basic:
+Hold the Shift key down on start-up, keep holding it until you get a login+
+screen, enter admin password, then when desktop appears, you can+
+use GO in menu bar to find Utilities folder, and run Disk Utility's repair+
+disk permissions. When done, quit the Utility and restart.+
There probably may be some .plist file controlling the view of image icons
and since I haven't followed that issue (experienced it in the past, forgot
what I did to fix it) I am not sure what preference file to suggest trashing.
But you can be very selective, when knowledgeable, and do that. Then,
later on, when you restart the computer the default setting would return.
You could set that to whatever (if not the default) & that may fix the matter.
{One preference file location that probably would contain your user account's
.plists would be in the Macintosh HD> User folder> Library> Preferences>
...Now, the correct one among these becomes important. There is a desktop
plist, a finder plist, and others. Since each user in a Mac with their own setup
account can change these, yours should be in your booted user account.
However, some time has passed since this kind of issue occurred and I didn't
need to delete a .plist to resolve it. Yet that may be a short fix.}
These issues usually have a cause; sometimes it may be due to other items
not quite right in the user interface and symptoms of that sometimes show up
in odd places and they may not be directly related. Subtle and dismissed, a
few of those quirks are not show stoppers in OS X. A 'safeboot' & disk utility
may resolve some; to find a correct .plist preference file & trash it may, too.
If the computer's hard disk drive is getting full of content you have added, it
may be time to archive image libraries and/or music libraries off the Mac's
internal hard disk drive and then thin out content on the computer. That can
help a computer run better. Damage to data on the computer drive may be
a result (or outright is) of over-filling the hard disk drive. Overwriting content
is sometimes an issue; it could be subtle, too, for awhile. Checked into it?
For some preventative maintenance chores, I have and use OnyX which is
a free running utility tool (which I refer to as a utility interface tool) that pulls
the strings in OS X that some users would not think of the Terminal utility
ways of making them work; this gives you a GUI format, an application to
run various sets of items rather easily. If done without concern, these tools
can do bad things (same as booted Disk Utility, drastic tools are onboard.)
OnyX is a free-running downloadable app from Titanium Software; and since
I only use it maybe once every several months (or sooner if bored or if active
in using one computer more than usual) & have it run in Automation selection
having chosen all the check-box choices, so it will do those. I also have OnyX
set in its preferences, to restart the computer after it is done running those.
This may do more than you need in this selection of Automation. I have never
had any issues with this; but some preference choices system-wide may need
to be set back to your choice, as it can be also set to wipe caches or other old
logs and misc stuff. A few settings won't make much different to default from.
Usually, I prefer not to shut off or restart my computer until such time as when
Activity Monitor shows some issue with virtual memory and swap files or space
on the hard drive being excessively allocated as Virtual Memory. At times, a
restart may be required. My Mac can run a few months without restart, but it is
left to sleep or I will put it to sleep. Even so, some basic background OS X items
may not automatically run as they should. You can force the maintenance cycles.
If the 'show icon preview' does not work even after performing catch-up maintenace
and including OnyX, SafeBoot, and others; and if you have at least 30% of the total
hard disk drive capacity open or free from use, then you may have to consider a few
other ideas. (Removing the plist file may be the only thing you'd need do.) Another
idea in a few cases of more severe odd behavior, and if you updated your Leopard
10.5 to your current/last level through use of the Delta or small update file, would be
to get the larger Combo (last version) and after repairing disk permissions, install it
over the similar system in your computer. 10.5.8 over 10.5.8. Then restart and go in
and repair disk permissions again. Perhaps later on, safeboot and do them.
That much effort is seldom needed. Preventative maintenance and care to not over-
fill the hard disk drive, helps to almost never see such a problem in your Mac OS X.
{In a few cases, people who have upgraded from an earlier OS X version (Tiger-to-
Leopard, for example) and had a problem, may still have a similar problem later. So
it is best to fix issues and not hope to upgrade over them. Unless it is a totally new
bare-bones secure zero-overwritten drive, correct partition map, reformat, new install.
Then, there should be no doubt if there was an odd problem in the software, only.}
Hopefully some of this late night rambling may be of some help.
+Answering a question in these forums can be like replying to a+
+statement thus, "why won't my car go?" And an answer starts+
+out by asking dozens of questions about the car itself and the+
+status of the car, if it has fuel, tires, if it's been in a flood, or if+
+there is an engine, fuel, battery... At least I know yours runs!+
Good luck & happy computing!

Exported PDF looks beautiful in Pages and Preview not in Acrobat Reader

Hi, I need a little help. I created an eBrochure in Pages which looks beautiful. When I export it to PDF, it looks amazing in Preview but not in Adobe Acrobat Reader; pictures doesn't look so bright and shiny, they loom more opaque. Also fonts look kind of weird. I went to Photoshop and tried to do it there, it looks better in Acrobat Reader but texts don't print as nice as the Pages one (photos do). So my problem I guess is with the photos on Pages... What can I do to ensure that my document created in Pages and exported to PDF can have the same quality in the Reader as it has in Preview?
Photos are in JPEG format and have a decent resolution I guess:
File Size 1.4 MB
With: 1200 pixels
Height: 1800 pixels
Resolution: 300 pixels/ inch
Pixel Dimensions: 6.18M
Pages computer is a MBA, 1.6 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, OS X 10.5.7, Pages '09 4.0.2
Thanks.

As far as I know, there is no provision for such settings in these programs.
Developer documentation for ICC colour management in Firefox 2, Firefox 3 and Firefox 3.5, see below. Firefox 3 has ICC colour management disabled by default. Firefox 3.5 has ICC colour management for images within which there is embedded an ICC source colour space profile. It is possible to set Firefox to colour manage the application windows as well as images with embedded ICC profiles. The developer documentation discusses how to do this in what sounds suspiciously like a command line / terminal tool, and also how to point Firefox 3.5 to the display profile. This in turn sounds suspiciously like Firefox 3.5 is unable to talk to the system level service and ask for the display profile automatically.
Camino and Opera ... I'll pass. I suspect it's more of the same mess.

Video connects but only shows local preview, not buddy

May be coincidence, but, ever since going to 10.5.6 on other Intel machines I have, this G5 machine will not show buddy video feed. I only see my feed. It takes the whole video window, not just the usual smaller preview in a corner. Audio works as expected. The 10.5.6 Intel machines seem to work normally. Connection doctor shows that video is being received and connection is 100%, I just cannot see buddy feed. Buddy's see me, I don't see them.

I am using iChat 4.0.7 on a G4/1Ghz Dual with no problems.
I see you are using an External iSight.
The Update for the camera was included in an OS update that followed the initial Firmware Update which means that it has been done.
(you can check in System Profiler > Hardware > Firewire and click on the iSight to bring up the Driver info and the like)
IS the Camera daisychained with anything ?
The iSight External doe not run at 400Mbps and will be effected by faster data streaming to other devices that are faster like Drives.

Generic Icons Everywhere, EXCEPT the trash?? Trash shows doc preview.

For some reason my new 20"iMac with 10.5.1 will not show the document preview as it's icon on the desktop, or in any normal folder. This stinks cause it's a neat feature that I would really like to use...
However, if I move the files to the trash, live icon preview works just fine?!?! The link below is a pic of the situation at hand - anyone have any ideas?
http://www.stormcell.com/desktop.png

You need to go to View Options and click on the little box next to "Show Icon Preview" then click to Use As Defaults. Then click "Always Open In * View* at the top and that folder will be fixed with those preferences.
Then keep in mind that a lot of file types will not show previews. Do a Google search for Quick Look plugins to expand your options, if it works in Quick Look it should also work in icon previews. And even then some files that are supposed to show them won't, it's a bit finicky. But just select the file and hit the space bar to see it in QL
If you try Cover Flow it will have a different set of files it will preview. A TIFF file will preview in Quick Look and in icon view, but will show up in Cover Flow as the generic app icon that saved it.

Adobe Acrobat Reader XI v11.0.07 shows grey boxes

Having downloaded the Free reader on a new install of Windows 7 Pro I am finding that most of the PDF's that I have and could view before are now showing as grey boxes.These are PDF's that I have saved on my PC and they are viewed on my PC. I do not use IE at all - never use it... I use Google Chrome as my browser and this is set to use Chrome PDF rather than the adobe add-in.
Any help would be appreciated.
Acrobat Reader XI v11.0.07

Pat Willener,
Good morning,
I used only the "ADOBE READER XI (11.0.07) - Portuguese" (1).
Commented on the ACROBAT (2) only to illustrate that, like (1), do not
change the original (confirmed by you).
If I have spreadsheet templates and documents to use and change data,
could not use pdf.
This program (1), it seems that is only in one direction without reversing.
Sorry if I insist, it is very important for me to know.
Grateful for the willingness to help.

Acrobat 6 filled form fields show up empty in Acrobat X

I've been using Acrobat 6 to create fillable forms some time back and now I'm having some issues trying to correct some fields they are showing up empty in Acrobat X. Is there a way to still view or edit my saved Acrobat 6 filled forms in Acrobat X?
Any help would be appreciated

Hi,
Would you take a look at Darrell's reply #4 in the following discussion to see if it answers your question?

Problem filling forms in Acrobat 8, was working with Acrobat 7

I have written some code to fill in PDF forms from an other application.
The code is working with Acrobat version 7.
If I run the same code with Acrobat 8 installed I get an error message, that there is no open document.
Code:
Set objAcrobat = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")
objAcrobat.Hide
'create document based on template
set objPDDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")
if (objPDDoc.Open(sDocument)) then
'Get the AVDoc object for saving the document at a later time...
set objAVDoc = objPDDoc.OpenAVDoc(sDocument)
'Get the Forms object for changing some fields now...
set objFormApp = CreateObject("AFormAut.App")
'Loop over the Fields...
set objForm = objFormApp.Fields() ==> BRINGS UP THE ERROR
'replace bookmarks
tsCCDBReplaceAcrobatBookmarks objForm

There are form fields in the document. As I just wrote it was working with Acrobat 7.
I'll try to fill in the forms with unhidden acrobat app.

OSX preview not showing acrobat-created table of contents

I built a nice pdf bookmark tree/table of contents in Acrobat Pro. This has worked fine in the past. However oddly on this occasion while the table of contents looks fine in Acrobat, it does not show up in Preview. It's a 90 page doc assembled from MS Visio.
What's going on?
Anyone else coming across this issue?
Thank you!!

I'm running into a similar problem. In my case, I'm trying to add some bookmarks into an existing document using PdfBox 0.7.3. The original document was created with FOP 0.9.5 and Preview displays the bookmarks just fine. But after having added some bookmarks, Preview no longer shows any bookmarks!?
Oddly, Gnome Evince 2.22.2 and Windows Acrobat Reader 9.1.1 have absolutely no problems with the modified document. It might still be a problem with PdfBox, but then I would expect other viewers to fail as well.
If anybody has any ideas, I would very much welcome your feedback. Thanks!

Trying to get into the app store and it asks for my password. The problem is that it is showing an Apple ID I don't use ghosted in. I can't figure out how to use my correct ID.

Trying to get into the App Store to update some apss. It asks for my password but the problem is that it is showing ghosted an Apple ID I don't use. Can't figure out how to fix it.

You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, if the App Store says you need to update "Twitter," the hacked app may be "Angry Birds" or something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you have to carry out a systematic search.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
File ▹ Find
from the menu bar. In the search window, select
Search: This Mac
from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu initially showing Kind. From that menu, select Other...
A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select Raw Query and click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of popup menu. Click in that box and paste (command-V).
The search window will show all the App Store products you've installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
At least one of the items listed in the search window is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Test.
