Please Help--Can't fill out or submit/save .PDF forms

Hi-
Running Safari 5.1.2 on Mac OS 10.6.8 (the latest updates according to software update) and using the Schubert PDF browser plugin. http://www.schubert-it.com/pluginpdf/
Before updating from Safari 5.0.xxxx I could fill out and submit .PDF forms in Safari without any issues. Now, I cannot. The form comes up but I cannot enter any text into the text fields.
About a month ago I went through this and had to revert back from a time machine back up because the ability to fill out forms in browser is an everyday necessity for me.
Does anyone know how to fix this issue?? Please help...

Ok.. I still cannot get this figured out. I'm baffled and frustrated!!
I did a deep cache cleaning using Snow Leopard Cash Cleaner, all of your reccomendations, and about an hours worth of reading. I had the schubert-it plug in uninstalled and have gone back to reinstalling it with no luck. I was thinking after all the cache cleaning it might work. Nope..
I can't beleive this is an issue after an update.. Apple is normally so great with this stuff.
The com.adobe.reader folder does not exist on my computer.
This problem occurs with any online form, not just the ones I need to access and submit, and it occurs with the native PDF support in Safari as well as the schubert app.
Any other ideas? I read on one post where someone fixed it with quicktime, but the video he put up to show how he fixed it was no longer available.
Carolyn, or anyone else, .. any ideas??

What do I need to fill out and print a PDF form?

I need to type on this form save and print it, how do I do that?

Hi nette7,
To fill in, save, and print your form, you can use the free Adobe Reader. You can download the free Reader from here: PDF reader, PDF viewer | Adobe Reader XI.
Of course, if you have a full version of Acrobat, you can use that as well. But Reader will definitely give you the tools you need to get the job done.
Best,

Issue with being able to fill in data and save pdf forms in adobe reader

Hi All,
This is my first time posting on this forum so not sure what way to go about it so i'll just start by explaining my problem.
I purchased adobe acrobat xi standard to create pdf forms(fillable forms) so that the receipents of these forms can open them in adobe reader, save them on their local drive and fill them in.
However, when I uploaded them online(as they will be downloaded from an internal website) - when the forms are opened in the browser this error appears
Currently when this error appears the client canno fill in their data or save it.
Any help on this issue would be appreciated!
Noel

Thanks for replying pat - that was another question I have. Is there a way I can get a dialog box to pop up when they click on the forms button?
Like the following;
As at the moment, they would have to click the actual "save" icon - and the same error will appear on their local disk?

How to fill out and submit a web form using LabVIEW

Almighty Forum,
This question will require knowledge not only of LabVIEW, but also of HTML, JavaScripting, and possibly more. I don't know about you, but I have an on-line account for pretty much everything: Bank, Credit Card, Savings, ETrade, 401K, Roth IRA, etc. About once a day I want to go and check on everything (because I'm an anal engineer), but it takes so freaking long to navigate and login to each site. Even after favoriting all the links and using cookies to save my "username", I still have to type in my password, hit enter, and wait for each site. This takes time, time is money, and money is why I'm doing this in the first place; so, I need a better solution. And since I stand by LabVIEW, I want a LabVIEW solution.
The solution in my head is something like this. I have one front panel with an embedded IE browser (in an ActiveX container). On the side of the browser I have my "favorite" toolbar. When I click on a button in the toolbar, it takes me to the site and automatically logs me in. Simple. Now once that is working I could make a single app with no browser interface that simply went out and queried all my sites for the important values and displayed them on the front panel. But not to get ahead of myself, I'll stick with my first goal for now. Baby steps.
So here is what I have now. I can load www.bankofamerica.com into my browser and automatically enter my "online ID" and "passcode". I just can't seem to figure out how to submit the form. I realize that I could just simulate a mouse click on the coordinates of the Sign In button, but that would not be nearly elegant enough for me to have pride in this application.
If you run the VI that I'm posting, and click Submit Info, you are taken to a error page saying something along the lines of "We're temporarily unable to process this request. Please try again." Now this would probably make sense with the "dummy" ID and passcode that is being used in this VI, but I get the same thing when I use my real information. I'm beginning to think that this is something BOA has done to prevent people from logging in programmatically. That would probably make sense to deter potential hackers.
There's got to be a way... can you help? This might take some time, but think how it could help streamline you in the long-run
PS: I down-converted the VI to 7.0 format for anybody stuck in 2003

Bank of America Login - test.vi ‏179 KB

Simply stated, you want to hit some button on your app and instantly see all your accounts no matter where from, is that correct?
Hi Otman,
Actually, my first goal is to be able to hit a single button that automatically logs into a single account. For example, when Bank of America Login - test.vi (attached above) is run, it should automatically:
1) Navigate to www.bankofamerica.com
2) Programmatically enter the "Online ID" and "Passcode"
3) Submit the form and log in
Its step 3 that I'm having trouble with. Again, see the VI attached to my first post for a good example of what I'm talking about.
Thanks,

Create a Form in Acrobat Standard that can be filled out AND SIGNED using Free Reader

I am tasked with creating forms that can be read, filled out and signed and submitted electronically by users that have only the reader software. I am using Acrobat 5 standard. I have not yet found a way to successfully create a form field that would allow users to insert a signature of some sort. This signature does not have to be encrypted, or use the digital signature system Adobe Acrobat has where you create a profile, log in, etc. It could be as simple as the ability to insert a jpeg or other image of their handwritten signature. This is to avoid having to have them fill it out, and then print it and fax or scan it in. It would be great if they could fill it out and then just save it and email it. How would I do this, or is it even possible?
Thanks,
JOhn

With AA5, there is no capability to submit a signature - even electronic. You can create a form that can be filled out, signed in the sense of adding a name and date, and submit to a web site.
Insertion of images is not part of forms with AA5, but I think has become possible recently. Even so, they reader would also have to be compatible with the feature to be able to use it. If the typing of the name and the date would do, then you can add those fields - sort of the limit with AA5.
With AA5, they can not save the form with the data. They can submit the data as an FDF file to a web site. If you have control of the client machines, then you can consider e-mail since those issues can be worked out locally. Without control of the clients (like a general form on the web), don't bother with e-mail since there will always be some that have problems.

Post the PDF files to a web site. The browse to them in Safari on the iPad. When you Open the files specify the Open to occur in Adobe Reader. Then you can have/Save them in your Documents folder on the iPad. An iPad has limited access to files otherwise.

Hi
I am in dilemma.
Recently i have joined a new organization which is a world leader in its field . The company name is very popular around the globe. But the thing is its almost 4 months , and as an Oracle DBA , i am not getting chance to work on something interesting / challenging . The thing is , i studied the environment here and i think most of my work involves only preparing DB docs , attending meeting and raising support tickets once a while. So very minimal technical work.
To be honest, in last 4 years of my career i haven't worked in such a large organization before so during interview i didn't ask for type of work ,and i just wanted to join this organization as it will have a dramatic impact when i mention the name in my resume . I do not want to quit this organization so early because it will have a bad impression . Also , i think speaking to my bosses will not work because they cant help it in any way .
I am happy with every thing else here , but i want to leave this company for doing something challenging as an Oracle DBA , but want to stay here because every thing else is damn good and also when i switch to a new company after 2 years , people will be dying to hire me ;) , am i contradicting ?
Please help me to come out of this dilemma.
Thanks

Well, joining a big company from a small company and then leaving it just in few days would actually backfire. Next hiring people would think that since you were in capable to handle the workload in a big company(because you never worked in such environment before), you were thrown out. You won't be able to justify your reason that you left because you didnt' find enough challenge there because it can be completely blown away by a simple counter that how did you know that there was no challenging work there as you never stayed there even for a year too! So IMO, you would do more harm for you than anything good be quitting now. Its a mistake not to ask about the work but you have committed it already . What you should n't do is to do add another one and that is to leave the company now.
Since you are not having much work, why don't you use it learn more about the company, its various works, other divisons and above all, to learn oracle database in your spare time. There is no place where you would be given challenges for your sake. If there is work it would come to you else you would be remaining free. You are working as a normal dba I believe not in support or something like that for you, every time, a new issue ticket is ready. If you have spare time with you, use it wisely to understand how things are working , both in your organization and with oralce db. Spend time doing trainings and learn more about the product, complete at least and then leave.
Just my 2 cents.

How do I create an online PDF form that can be filled out by recipient?

I have Create PDF Online and am wondering how I go about creating a document that can be filled out by a recipient. This would be regarding a questionaire type form where I would ask questions and the recipient fills in the answers. I know I have received these in the past from other people, but do not know how to do this myself. I don't know if this is even possible with CREATE PDF ONLINE or if I need to purchase a special Adobe software package in order to do this.
Thank you in advance for any information that any of you can give me.

i'm afraid i can't help you. i've never tried to create a document that can
be filled out. hopefully, someone else can help you.

The enter key is not working in firefox but it has working fine in chrome and IE so please help me to rid out from this.

Hello gokulaan, '''try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Hi, nportillo,
The next time you attempt to reach Skype Customer Service, try again using a different web browser and choosing a different path through the various drop-down menu options presented. Do not choose the obvious - you have already established that path is not working. Also, look to approve a pop-up dialogue box which would connect you to start an instant message chat with a customer service agent. If you have pop-ups blocked in your browser settings, this will also impede reaching an agent.
Skype is aware of problems reaching their customer service unit via the website, however people are getting through. I have flagged your report for follow-up by those to whom I report.
Regards,
Elaine

I am asking this for my friend, who was using iphone 4. He lost it one week back and couldnt find it so far. He is having his IMEA number of the phone. Could you please help me in tracing out this?

If he has not previously set up Find My iPhone, there is no way to
track the iPhone. Apple does not and will not track phones.
Immediately change all passwords. Hopefully he was using a passcode
to get by the lock screen. If he was, his data is protected; if not, anyone
who finds the iPhone can access anything that was on it.

I checked and it does not appear in the Applications folder.
I tried yesterday on an ethernet connection with a download speed of 2 Mbps but, unfortunately the connection died(It happened from the ISP end, which is out of my control) in between after which there was no trace of the download that happened for so long(till the internet connection death).
One more serious query which I am unable to understand. If the internet connection, dies in the midst of the download is in progress why is it so that the state does not persist and one has to restart the entire process again. Is there no solution for this?
I tried so many times and its the same case after some amount of download it vanishes. So many unsuccessful attempts. I am ****** off now. Is it not possible to see Mavericks? Why does different machines of Apple behave differently? Somewhere it goes smoothly and somewhere like my mine. Why did not Apple release a non apple store version? Is this not a bad sign of letting the users struggle when something is being offered for free?
The reason I asked as whether we can download the .app of Mavericks is that, there are so many applications that I have downloaded web and have installed. All that works fine. Can't we do the same here? You download a copy of Mavericks installer application and upload it for me in Google drive or like online storage places which can be downloaded and used by me? Help me understand.
Thanks again.
