Problem with form created in Accrobat 9 opening in Reader 9 (Works in Reader 8.1.2)

I created a form using Acrobat 9 and Adobe LifeCycle Designer ES 8.2. It works great on my PC running Adobe 8.1.2. It also works correctly when accessed on a flash drive. Additionally, it opens correctly on my wife's PC running Reader 8.1.2 regardless of how it was transferred. (Worked via flash, network copy/paste to desktop, and as an email attachment).
The problem is, on my laptop, and work computers running Adobe Reader 9.0, attempting to open the file generated the following error window to appear, once you click "OK" on the error, the form fields are no longer accessible. The error is as follows:
"This document enabled extended features in Adobe Reader. The document has been changed since it was created and use of extended features is no longer available. Please contact the author for the original version of this document."
I re-opened the form in LifeCycle and optimized it for Adobe Reader 9.0 and higher; but the error persists. The only difference it makes is now when the form is opened on the Reader 8.1.2 machines, it generates first a window for downloading Reader 9.0, and then a compatability warning. Clicking cancel on the download and ignoring the warning results in a form that is still usable and that can be saved. On the Reader 9.0 machines, even after optimized for 9.0 and higher, the above error still persists.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance :)

No, you are wrong (Gene & Mike). First, the forms, at least my forms, have NOT been edited since being created in designer. They were created and saved directly to flash. Second, this issue has been posted on the acrobat forum as well as the life cycle designer forum and both thread were ended with adobe expert posts saying it was an adobe reader issue and to post here.
I have experimented more with this issue and it seems to be a 'trusted identity' issue within reader, but I have not wholely figured it out yet. My forms work on Reader, 7, 8, and 9. They work on all versions of 7 and 8 regardless of what the form was optimized for (my forms were optimized for 9 and higher). The only trouble is on 9.0. I have found that when updating on client machines, reader gives a prompt (sometimes) that says reader has found a set of trusted identities from a previous version, would you like to use these identies or create a new set of identities. If you choose to keep the existing trusted identies set, the form works, even when upgraded to reader 9.0
Not trying to be argumentative (Mike and Gene) but the 'experts' bail on this issue by telling people it's a reader problem and to post here.

  • Problem with forms created in Adobe 9 not saving in reader X

    We have been using fill in forms I created in Adobe 9 pro and suddenly people were complaining they cannot save the form with their information.  I have discovered that all of those people have acrobat reader X.  I looked for solution and found that original form needs to be saved with "extend features in Adobe reader".  when I did this it seems to have corrected problem.  Does anyone know another way to accomplish without redoing the form? There are many forms and they  have been widely distributed and would be difficult to redistribute. They worked fine with Acrobat reader 9.

    In order for a modified form to be saved with any recent version of Adobe Reader, the document has to Reader-enabled, which is done in Acrobat 9 by selecting "Advanced > Extend Feature in Adobe Reader". So if the forms worked with Reader 9, they must have had the rights applied through this process or by LiveCycle Reader Extensions. It would be interesting to see a form that is fillable/saveable with Reader 9 that doesn't work with Reader 10.

  • Problems with form created in muse to use in business catalyst ecommerce checkout

    I am trying to create a form to use with my BC hosted site for the commerce module checkout
    I have created a sample form - but every time I update the site it overwrites the form that I have modified in BC
    I have checked the option to not export the page that the form is placed on but it still overwrites...

    Hi,
    any webform which is not used till now, will be deleted by Muse. To fix this,
    1) Create the Purchase webform with payment details in BC.
    2) Goto Module template-> online shop-> register buy layout and place the webform .
    3) Go to test page URL and submit a test entry.
    4) Check in back end a order will be created.
    5) Then publish the site via Muse.
    Muse never deletes a webform which has been used for submission.
    Do let me know if you have any question.

  • I'VE CREATED A FORM WITH IMAGES. WHEN I OPEN THE FILE IN ACROBAT READER, THE IMAGES ARE BALCK BOXES!

    I'VE CREATED A FORM WITH IMAGES. WHEN I OPEN THE FILE IN ACROBAT READER THE IMAGES ARE BLACK BOXES.
    THE FORM HAs (extend features to acrobat reader). THE FORM WAS DISTRIBUTED.
    NON OF MY EMPOYEES CAN SEE THE IMAGES. WHAT'S WRONG? CAN YOU HELP?

    However, the view large images is an issue for a form that is being distributed. Either a note needs to be added to the PDF to tell how to enable the view or the images need to be changed so that the enabling is not needed.

  • Javascript problem for form created in Adobe Designer 8.2

    I have redesigned the form using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.2 and tried to do merging of xml values into the form. But not successful. Below is sample of the javascript
    trustedImportXFAData = app.trustedFunction (
    function (xmlfilenamename)
    app.beginPriv();
    var re =".pdf";
    var filename = this.path;
    this.importXFAData(xmlfilenamename);
    this.saveAs(filename);
    this.closeDoc();
    app.endPriv();
    This code works find with form created in previous version but not in the new version. I believe it has something to do with the privilege but I do know where I should change.
    For you information, I don't get any error from javascript.
    Thank you

    Hi Paul Guerette,
    I just remembered. I better inform you this as well so you can see the real picture.
    Desktop - OS / Vista Home
    I created the PDF form using Acrobat Livecycle ES 8.2, Then I opened the form in Acrobat Professional 9.0 to enable the save features. Then I open in Reader 9 to make I will be able to save data. Successful
    Laptop - OS / XP Professional
    I have vb.net that calls the js passing xml as parameter.
    jsCode = "trustedImportXFAData(""" + SOURCE_XML + """);"
    Fields = formApp.Fields
    Fields.ExecuteThisJavaScript(jsCode)
    In this machine I have Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional. The javascript is inside the \Acrobat 7.0\Acrobat\Javascript\.
    I wonder could this also be, because of the compatibility between 2 different versions.
    Thank you

    I assumed this would help my problem with not being able to open apps like Preview or TextEdit since I installed Mountain Lion. Instead, first I'm prompted to enter a password, then once I do that, I get an error box telling me the Library needs repairing. So I click on Repair, and once again I'm prompted for a password, which I enter, then the same error box opens, and so it goes. Can anyone help me with this problem? I'd greatly appreciate it.

    Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -Rh $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Step 1 should give you usable permissions in your home folder. This step will restore special attributes set by OS X on some user folders to protect them from unintended deletion or renaming. You can skip this step if you don't consider that protection to be necessary, and if everything is working as expected after step 1.
    Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not  going to reset a password.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • Authorization problem with VF01 "Create Billing Documents"

    Dear All,
    We face following problem with VF01 "Create Billing Documents".
    Transaction: VF01
    User: Joe
    Authorization of Joe:
         VKORG Sales Organization: A, B (authorization object V_VBRK_VKO)
         FKART Billing Type: 1, 2 (authorization object V_VBRK_FKA)
    The objective for Joe:
       Joe is qualified to create bills in
          sales org A only for billing type 1 and in
          sales org B only for billing type 2.
       Joe should not be able to create bills for
          sales org A with billing type 2 and in
          sales org B with billing type 1.
    How can we solve this problem?
    We already searched for userexits without any success.
    Any help or ideas are very appreciated.
    Regards
    Markus Wilhelm
    Project Manager ERP

    Dear,
    There are standard authority-checks based on Sales organization (authorisation object V_VBRK_VKO) and/or Billing type (V_VBRK_FKA).
    An option would be to create a new billing type, define specific authorisations and use the new billing type for these documents.
    The bad thing is that you would also need a special (new) sales order type, because the billing document type is unique per sales order.
    So maybe it is easier to have a different sales organization.
    Another option would be to create a new authorization object and check it in the billing documents.
    If you wish, you could modify program LV60A005 & LV60A006.
    Then you might check various user/customer exits.
    Some functions to check: EXIT_SAPLV60A_001/002,
    EXIT_SAPLV60B_001 - 008, EXIT_SAPLV60B_010 - 011.

  • Problem with implicitly created Oracle pipes

    Hi, I am having a problem with implicitly created Oracle pipes. I am not sure if this is the correct forum for this topic, but I could not see one which suited better..
    I am using Oracle pipes as a commiunication mechanism between processes (some are written in PL/SQL and other in PRO*C).
    The general problem I have is that if a timeout occurs during the communication process, I end up with 1 or perhaps 2 implicitly created pipes.
    The biggest problem for me is that I am unable to determine if a create is implicitly created (via dbms_pipe.send_message or receive_message). This causes problems, since these implicitly created pipes are left behind and not deleted. I'll show you the basic flow of the processes and you shall see my problem.
    server: create request pipe "req_pipe"
    server: listen for request on requests pipe.
    client: create two pipes for comms with server.
    client: send request and the names of the newly created pipes to the server.
    server: read request and pipename from request pipe (from this point all comms between the client and server are now done over the 2 pipes the client created).
    server: send ack message to client to ensure they are still there (since requests can be queued in the request pipe and clients could have timed out before the request is received)
    client: send "i'm still here" ack back to the server.
    server: process request and send result back to client.
    client: send ack back to server to let server know we have received the response.
    server: send ack back to client to show that work is now committed.
    OK thats the general event flow. I use the rule, that pipes created by a process are removed by a process. So the client always removes the pipes it created in all situations. But since this can happen at any point we can get in the situation:
    client: timeout occurs, delete pipes.
    server: send message to client (creates an implicit pipe) and therefor works (no errors raised)
    server: do a read for response from previous message. (implicitly creates pipe) (will fail).
    Now we have two implicitly created pipes! These pipes will exist until the database instance is shutdown, and in a poorly performing environment, we could get thousands of these pipes lying around... not a good situation.
    How can I either stop pipes being implicilty created, or how do I detect if a pipe was implicitly created.
    I have tried a couple of things, like using v$db_pipes to check if a pipe exists before doing send/reveive calls but this is FAR to slow to do a select on that view.
    We have also looked at keeping a record of pipes created by the client then have some process (perhaps the server) clean up these pipes after some time frame. This is a workable solution but is not favourable since it adds extra overhead having to check these pipes often, and created an extra level of complexity which is not required..
    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Feel free to email me with any suggestions on my email provided below, or just post a reply to this formum..
    Many thanks,

    Did you change any AppleID accounts or anything?  I've seen this happen when changing accounts or certain restore situations.

    i was in 4.3.1 then i do the update , but now after update i face this problem , so what i Supposed to do ?!!

    Hi There
    Had the same problem as you. App would terminate when launched.
    Solution to working You Tube app:
    -Go to playstore
    - Uninstall app (it doesn't remove the app, only removes the update)
    - "Et Voila", working again.
    This doesn't correct the problem, it's just a workaround for you to be able to use youtube app again.
    Hope it helped.
