PDF Information isn't saved.

I created a PDF in Acrobat 9 with editable fields.
When I fill out the PDF using Preview or Safari and save it, none of the information that was entered is saved. When I reopen the PDF, all the text fields are blank.
Can anyone else reproduce this?

Hello,
Yes, I can. It seems to involves some fields for me; not sure why.
This occurs in Preview and also in some 3rd-party apps and when using "Print" as PDF. I suspect this is a bug of some sort in the OSX PDF library.
Still looking for a fix or workaround.
Thanks,
David

Print to PDF - using Snow Leopard (Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose

i have a PDF form that i created that is used as a custom proposal that my company sends out to potential clients. the form in its editable state is only used internally. we recently upgraded to snow leopard, but prior to the upgrade, we were able to fill the custom proposal form out using adobe reader, and, as you well know, we weren't able to save that edited document as a PDF with the custom form fields filled out. our work around using adobe reader was to print to a pdf using the adobe pdf printer in the printer dialog. with the addition of snow leopard, however, instead of choosing the adobe pdf printer, we were to choose PDF from the bottom left corner, then Save As PDF, and it would spit out an uneditable pdf that then allowed us to email it to the potential client without them being able to edit it as well as have an internal, digital copy for our records instead of having lots of paper floating around (i know this is also doable using security that disallows the client certain editing privileges, but printing to a pdf is much quicker and more efficient, and the pdf security isn't really that secure at its best).
in any case, i came across this gem of a post here on the support forums that installs another option from the PDF drop down on the bottom left of the print dialog menu that reads Save As Adobe PDF and is supposed to do exactly what i am trying to get it to do...print to a pdf file from adobe reader.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html
once i updated to acrobat 9.2 (as the link above suggests 9.1), however, the Save As Adobe PDF does appear in the print dialog menu, but it still gives me the same error that acrobat 8 - 9 gave me while using Snow Leopard — Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose File > Save — and as i've already explained, you can't save an edited pdf form in reader (as i am the only one in the office with acrobat) and still keep the fields as you've entered them in. the only work around is to print to a pdf but is apparently having some recent problems.
using acrobat, however, i know that i can save the editable pdf as a new file with the fields customized as i have left them, but it still saves it as an editable pdf and the print to a pdf option still remains the best option...that way we have digital copies internally that are uneditable that can be printed at any time or emailed to the client.
how can i do print to a pdf, based on what i've written above, using snow leopard and acrobat and reader?

A simple way is to flatten the form fields, which converts the field appearances to regular page contents. You can do this with JavaScript or PDF Optimizer (Advanced > PDF Optimizer > Discard Objects > Flatten form fields). A very nice script that adds a custom menu item can be found here: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

Firefox isn't saving my tabs

I need to start off with the warning that I have no clue what I'm doing and the work I've done so far was based on other people's advice or information I found on MozillaZine. This problem started after I downloaded the latest version of Firefox.
So... Firefox isn't saving my tabs and I think I know why, but I'm not 100% sure. (I have it saved that I want to restore my previous session whenever I open Firefox.) I went to about:config and went to look for browser.sessionstore.enabled to see if that was messed up, but the file wasn't even there. Obviously, I'm assuming that's the problem. If anyone could tell me if it sounds like I'm on the right track that would be great.

The pref [http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.enabled browser.sessionstore.enabled] is no longer used in Firefox 3.5 and later (bug 449596).
Remove that pref if you still have it via the right-click context menu and choose Reset.
Check that Session Restore is enabled.
You can look at the 'browser.sessionstore' prefs on the '''about:config''' page and reset prefs that show as bold (user set).
http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo
http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo
http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash
If you use [[Clear Recent History]] in Firefox 3.5/6 or [[Clearing private data|Clear Private Data]] in Firefox 3 to clear the 'Browsing History' when Firefox is closed then restoring tabs from the last session (e.g. "Save & Quit" or "Show my windows and tabs from last time") doesn't work.

Lync 2013 isn't saving conversation history in Lync, Saves to Outlook just fine.

So in my Lync client, I have the Conversations icon that has tabs under it for All, Missed, and Calls.
All of those tabs are blank in my program. They said "You'll see your recent conversations here", but there's nothing there. I do see my old conversations in Outlook just fine, but Lync itself isn't saving them.
What's even worse is that my Conversations icon has a '5' next to it and says I have 5 missed conversations. I click it and the tabs are blank.
Any thoughts on this? Most issues I see are when Outlook isn't logging the conversations so my issue is backwards...

Hi,
Please check your settings:
1. On the Lync main window, click Options button, and then click Personal;
2. In the Personal information manager section, select "Microsoft Exchange Or Microsoft Outlook" from Dropdownlist;
3. Checked all checkboxes under this field;
4. Exit Lync 2013 and restart it;
5. Check the result.
If the issue still persists, please try to repair this Office program:

LSO WBT: learning progress time isn't saved for otype P (but works for US)

Hello,
We're noticing that the progress time of a web-based training isn't saved for a person (otype P). However, for a user (otype US), the time is saved correctly in table LSOLEARNING_C.
The number of completed learning objects is saved though, it seems the problem is only with the time (field TTIMECRS).
What could be the reason for this behaviour? Thanks!!

Hi Dave,
There is an authorization issue with the standard "LSO_CPLAYER" role. I am assuming you have assigned this role to the Content Player communication user. I also had the same issue. I did not have a luxury of time so the immediate fix for us was to assign additional authorization to the user id that resolved the issue.
The reason it works only when there is no pernr attached to the user id is that, in this specific situation the system uses the User Ids authorization to update the data in back-end. When the pernr is attached to the user id then the system uses the Content Player user id to update the data. While doing so if the standard role "LSO_CPLAYER" is assigned then due to the missing authorization it is able to update everything except the time. Please let me know if you require any further clarification or information on this.

Use separate Apple IDs for each family member and use Family Sharing features of those things (if any) that you do want to share. https://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/family-sharing/

Help! Message "pdf could not be saved because an unknown error occurred. Try saving to a different l

I had the contents of my (dying) ibook transferred onto my emac. The tech created a new user/desktop on the emac. Now, when I try to open PDF files from a website, I get a drop down window saying this:
"Downloading - users/myname/desktop/xxxxx.pdf could not be saved because an unknown error occurred. Try saving to a different location."
Points to note: 1) The "xxxxx.pdf" part of the above message changes each time I try to open a pdf document, even the same one, and it does not show the real name of the document (e.g. CollegeApplication.pdf). The xxxxx.pdf is usually written as gibberish, like "86hgkjh.pdf" or "sdfj99f.pdf."
2) this never happened on my laptop;
3) the settings are set in Firefox to download pdf's to my desktop;
4) I have the latest version of Adobe Reader, which I already tried opening before downloading;
5) the settings are also set to open pdfs using adobe.

I had the same problem when I installed Firefox 3, but I think the problem is due to my recent hard drive upgrade. Try changing the download location from "Desktop" in Microsoft Internet Explorer and all other browsers (Safari, Firefox, etc.) to whatever default location you prefer. I never use Internet Explorer, but I think somehow my settings were corrupted when I upgraded my hard drive. I found this solution on another site also.

How do I enable a LiveCycle PDF form to be saved in Adobe Reader?

I have an interactive PDF form that I created in LiveCycle. However, when it is opened with Adobe Reader, the user is unable to save it. They can only print from Reader. How do I enable the LiveCycle PDF form to be saved in Adobe Reader?

You have to add save rights with Acrobat.
Open you form in Acrobat and then save it via File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools.

Adobe reader will not open pdf files I have saved as, or, export as pdf to my desktop (latest Maverick). The same file does open when I am on the source website (i.e. user manuals etc.). Why?

Make sure you have the latest Adobe Reader installed for your OS.

Did you try using Preview. If you control click on the PDF on your desktop you can use the "open with" option.

My Apple ID won't process because my bank information isn't matching what to do I'm new to Apple and can't download anything?

You've checked the name and address on your iTunes account and it's in exactly the same format (including spacing and layout) as the credit card that you are trying to use is registered to ? And the card was issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are ?
From http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646
If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorisations have the correct information on file.
And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
Or do you have a different card that you could try, or do you get the 'none' option on your account ? Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.

Since installing Yosemite, my iMac isn't saving Notification preferences.

Since installing Yosemite, my iMac isn't saving Notification preferences. I know it's an issue, because I've seen it in other forums. Any help?

Here are the instructions I got from AppleCare from an Apple Engineer. I'm not sure if the fix was specifically for my machine or if it'll work for someone else. Follow at your own risk.
1. Open the Library folder in your Home folder.
2. In the Library folder, open the Application Support folder.
3. Locate the folder named NotificationCenter. Drag this folder to the desktop.
4. Next, open the Terminal application.
Copy and paste each line of these commands into the Terminal window, in order. Press return after each line:
cd `getconf DARWIN_USER_DIR`
rm -rf com.apple.notificationcenter
killall usernoted; killall NotificationCenter
5. Close the Terminal app.
6. Restart your computer.
The notification preference changes won't stick until you restart a 2nd time after this.

Time Interval isn't saved

Hello,
The Time-interval on our BW system is set to an upper limit of year 2012. Since this is causing problems, I need to change this value to 9999. With transaction RSRHIERARCHYVIRT, on "General Settings"-tab, I enter 9999 and hit save. No error is generated, but it isn't saved: renewing the transaction shows 2012.
SU53 doesn't show any authorisation problems.
SAPNote 930521 looks like the problem, but our support pack is higher. The Support Package of the BW system SAPKW70018 and it was verified that the suggested correction is implemented.
The [Forum Thread|https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=930521] suggested that the value should be changed in ECC and transferred to BW. But again: the same problem arises in ECC (it doesn't save, but no error is generated and no authorisation problems occur).
But on a different BW system I can change the value in the RSRHIERARCHYVIRT. This system is on Support Package SAPKW70013.
Any clues to the solution?

See if [SAP Note 1224801|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1224801] is related to your problem

My iBooks won't sync PDF information

I've been dealing with this for a long time, for some reason my iBooks on my iPad won't sync PDF information when I update it in my iTunes (i.e. change/add the authors name). When I look in the books section of my iPad on the dropdown in iTunes, the PDFs for which I've changed information just stay gray with a that "recycle" type symbol to the left, even after the sync is done. I can still open the PDFs in iBooks but it just won't let me change the information as to better organize them. This is incredibly frustrating and any advice would help greatly.

It wouldn't with me either. In fact I lost the pdfs from my iPad after changing their names in iTunes and syncing. Then I found you also have to go to the 'books' tab in iTunes and set 'SyncBooks' to 'All Books', and they all appeared back in the right collection. However, that only worked once. I've renamed some more, and possibly some again, and nothing happens. But at least this time I'm not losing files from my iPad.

PDF Information isn't saved.
