Repeat information in a form - is there a one step process?

I have a form where the last name would need to be entered about 6 times by the person filling it out.  Is there any easy way of asking for that information once and having it populate all the areas that I need filled in or would the user just have to enter that several time??

Yes, just give the fields the same name and they will automatically have the same value.

    Hello, how are you? On September 13 I bought an iPad and in October bought a game on the app store problem is that when informed the card number dropped normally, but then went on to ask for a new form of payment because one had given any errors, and so not lowered any other game and not upgraded the already downloaded. I do not know what exactly I have to do, because if informed a new payment method continues with the same problem, checked the card bill and really had given an error, because there was no billed the game. I ask you to verify what happened and explain to me what I need to do, because my single card is Visa's and do not intend to return others to use the services of the App Store.
    Thank you for understanding.

  • Adding Dynamic information to a form

    I am attempting to populate a designed form using data from a database (MySQL) using a ODBC connection. How do I add the dynamic information to the form to autopopulate it when the form is called using a ID number?
    Is there any place to read up on this?

    You just want to be look-up info based upon an ID number ? This is not very hard to do. you could use some wonderful XFA javascript and send the ID back to the DB and use a select where statement and pull up the info. You may want to read the designer help I think it mentions some of this.

  • Information regarding Adobe forms

    Dear Gurus,
    I need some basic information regarding adobe forms to be used in ESS MSS portal for doing some basic actions by managers like hiring/maintenance of data for his subordinates.
    Are there any specific system requirements so that adobe forms display in browser without any problems?  Is there any specific internet browser which works without any problems?
    What time is considered to be best time in which an empty form can be displayed?
    In one line what is the acceptable time for a form to load which is not considered as slow and is it linked with network connections or individual systems of end users?
    Need your kind inputs on this topic........
    Regards,
    kitchlu

    Form works in IE 6, 7, 8  and Firefox
    Make sure you have adobe products above 8.1 (includes all adobe products)
    In Reader -> Edit -> Preference -> Internet - you have setting to display pdf in browser.
    For a small form with limited fields, 5-10 seconds launching time can be achieved.
    Performance depends on number of fields, User events, no of backend calls, number of dropdown boxes, Servce size, Network etc etc. Optimized code is another aspect to look into

  • Problems with filling out/going back and editing filled out information and signing forms

    Users cannot fully fill out, edit and save forms--
    the forms were set up in InDesign CS6, then edited in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 for all the form info and after that was set up the forms were saved as extended pdfs to allow adobe reader users to fill them out and sign.
    The users are having all kinds of issues with the forms and its been difficult to pin point the exact cause.
    Here are 2 errors:
    This document enabled extended features in Adobe reader. This 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.
    The security settings on this document prevent adding text and/or placing a signature on it from Adobe Reader. To fill out and sign this document you need to print it out.
    ---I've checked the security on the form and there is no security not allowing them to fill it out and I believe that originally they were able to but the form was saved and then they went back and were unable to edit it. I need to know if its something I need to do on my end or an instruction I need to give to them--steps to filling out and saving programs vesions to use etc..
    sorry for some of the holes in the info. the form was created for a client and they sent it out to their employees so I do not have direct contact with the people having the issues just two screenshots, and I have not been able to find an answer that works--this is what I thought would help but it didnt:
    It should solve the signature/adding text  issue—From : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/987256
    Your user should go to Extended pane in Reader to apply a digital signature to the Reader extended PDF.
    The user is probably trying to use the Sign pane in Reader which has some options disabled according to the document permissions. The new Sign pane in Reader is an integration with Adobe EchoSign service in the sense that it enables an end user to fill-up documents, electronically sign and then send a PDF document, without having the need to print them. The Sign pane provides two options to the user:
    1 - Fill and Sign: Here the user can place text using 'Add Text'. Users can add arbitrary text to a PDF, eg. in documents where Reader cannot interact with the document even though the document looks like a form, in forms where user cannot save the filled-up form. In such cases the only option a user has is to print the form, fill it and then fax or fedex the filled up document to the author or scan it and send it electronically. Using the Sign pane in Reader, a user can add text and also electronically sign the document (this is not the same as digital signature) using an image of their signature. He can create a 'signature' from a scanned paper which has user's handwritten signature and place it on the PDF.
    2 - Send for Signature: Here the user is sent to EchoSign for collecting signatures from others.

    You will get that first message when the document has been changed in a way that invalidates the internal digital signature that's applied when a document is Reader-enabled. Certain changes are allowed (e.g., filling fields, commenting, signing) and will not invalidate the signature, but others are not. The exact cause of the change is often hard to track down, but it can be due to font problems, some type of file corruption, or something that Acrobat/Reader attempts to correct when the file is opened/saved. You will also get the message if the users system time is not correct and is currently set to some time before the document was Reader-enabled. It seems best to use the most recent version of Acrobat to enabled the documents and recent versions of Reader to work with them.
    It problem is probably not related to the user using anything in the Sign pane.

    I get my iPhone 5 from UAE AND no one inform me that no FaceTime there and I am living in lebanon I am lebanese so who will except my iPhone 5 here in Lebanon with out FaceTime I lost my money in this and Mac should replace our iPhone pls

    Why you bought from the UAE .
    The phone has NO international warranty and its the UAE and Saudia Arabian authorities that have instructed the function (facetime) to be removed not Apple.
    Your best option is to return it to Dubai when next there.
    OR contact these companies and see if you can trade to a Facetime friendly model from Europe

  • Pass users information throughout the forms

    I am using ASP VB script (Access). Users will first register
    and then will log into the site. They will then take a pretest, do
    a lesson, take a posttest, and leave some feedback. My first
    iteration of this had them filling in their name, instructor, class
    on each form. WIth the login page, I think I can get them to log on
    once and have that information passed from form to form.
    I don't really hand-code. I use the regular bindings pannel
    and the ADDT to develop the site. I feel like I am on the verge to
    getting it done...just missing a few pieces.
    Thanks for the help!

  • My 5 year old MacBook Air is telling me it "cannot save information about your mailboxes because there isn't enough space in your home folder.  Quit mail, delete files you don't need, then reopen mail."  What is "home folder," and which files to delete?

    The home folder is where all of your personal files are kept.
    Best candidates to delete are movies, videos, music and photos since they generally take the most space.
    Don't forget to empry the Trash after you delete the file because the space is not returned until the Trash is emptied.

  • Forms with more than one page

    I have a form page that I am creating, an application which
    consists of seven pages. Normally I would link my continue button
    to page number two, etc. to connect the pages. Page 1 has a form
    and I want to be able to press the submit button at the end of page
    seven and have all the information within the form pages (1-7) to
    be submitted to my email simultaneously. Is that possible to link
    the form pages? Thank you. If not does anyone know of a good form
    program?

    Hi
    Catch the values of page one on page two in the form scope
    and you could
    then set them as a session variable value, repeat this
    process for each
    page and on the final page you submit your page and use the
    session
    variable values to do with whatever you need them to do.

  • There was an error processing a page. there was a problem reading this document (110)?

    hi
    my name is kapil and i am trying to open one (which is downloded) pdf document.which giving me an error as there was an error processing a page. there was a problem reading this document (110) for some page only. i am using acrobat reader x. is it any 3d setting or any thing else please give me an idea. i am waiting for replay as soon as possible...........
    your sincerely
    KAPIL TRIVEDI

    When I encountered an error "there was a problem reading this document 110" in Acrobat Pro 11 on 28.7 MB CS6 file, it indeed was very frustrating.
    I solved my problem, but since I don't know which step benefitted me, I've to enumerate all the steps I took:
    Read below:
    1.1. I could copy the file anywhere on the drive, but couldn't 'save as' from Acrobat Pro.
    1.2. No document security was applied of any sort on the file.
    1.3. Still in the first tab of the document properties, all details under advance section were empty. No 'PDF Version' 'location' 'file size' etc were populated. Nothing.
    1.4. I couldn't change and save anything in any of property dialogue. I could comment on the text, but as soon as I tried to save, it gave an error (some sort of 'File reading' error).
    1.5. When I tried to extract a page (I tried many), it gave 'reading error'.
    1.6. I didn't try 'splitting error'. Since I was 100% sure, it'll give me same reading error.
    1.7. I opened the file in Firefox and tried saving it as pdf from there. But no error, but no save either.
    1.8. I ran 'Remove Hidden Information' from protection panel without any errors.
    1.9. I tried 'sanitize document' from the same tab, but didn't succeed.
    1.10. Then (here I think the problem was resolved), from Document Processing panel, I did some commands. 1st, 'Export all images', successfully. Then 'Remove all links', it found 0.
    1.11. Then in 'print production' panel, I clicked/tried to open acrobat distiller. The same opened, did some processing. But I don't know if it did something in solving the problem or not.
    1.12. Although I think my problem was resolved till now, but the last step I did was 'Saved As' the file (from the file menu) as a .ps file. Though I've not yet reopened/used that ps file (to convert it into a pdf file again). But around here I wanted to close the file and it asked me whether I wanted to save the file, I said yes. And it saved the file correctly. And I checked that in properties dialogue, the missing information was populated too.
    1.13. Sorry for so lengthy instructions, but I had no choice.

  • Is there a one click save all edits to copies of photos option?

    HI,
        Assuming... I have this correct... is there a way to export and merge all your "edits" with your photos and save them as copies with one click rather than individually / one at a time? 
    Why?  Ultimately so I can save my resulting good photos... thousands... as copies that I can use with other apps... or NO apps.
    But why?   OK, I am new and uncomfortable with the file system in lightroom.  The way I understand it is you create a catalog, basically thumbnails of your images on your drive.  Then any edits you do become part of a metafile, which is a large database of all your edits for all your photos in one file.  When you pull up an image from a "catalog" (assuming you have not moved it) LR pulls up the image and combines it with the edits you made from the "metafile" to show you your edited photo.
    OK, but why?   Because I use other software and AFTER my year is up, I may not renew. 
    The file system seems geared to make you dependent on Adobe and frankly, if that is so, it bothers me greatly.  (Wait till SharePoint catches up to us.)
    1) do not want my modified images locked up or my edits inaccessible.
    2) I would like to try and learn it Adobe's way, and not have multiple copies all over the place.
    3) but I am going to have to give up my hierarchy and easy way to find and save pics to do it Adobe's way  (which I still do not completely understand.)
    4) There are some things I do very easily with Photoshop and Cannot use Adobe until I figure them out... if at all possible.
    SO before I commit to a years purchase.   Can someone answer my rather direct question as stated in the first two lines.
    Thank you,
    Kevin
    I am old school, been using computers since before the 286's and the catalogs and this proprietary stuff is confusing because I have not found an explanation that helps me ask the right questions or explains it the way I need it.  So, aside from the intro training videos... if anyone knows a information source that is useful, direct, to the point (that does not make you sit in your chair going ... My God, I have other things to do today, get to the point... Please share.  I will consider every link.  (I am used to being the Go To guy and this is frustrating.)

    Because I use other software and AFTER my year is up, I may not renew.
    In which case, all parts of Lightroom except develop and map are still available to you, indefinitely, which allows you to export your edited photos from Lightroom after you stop paying the subscription.
    Is there a one-click way to save every edited photo? No, but you can do it with multiple clicks (Select All Photos, File->Export, set the desired options, click on Export), and even given all of your misgivings about Lightroom (which many people share and many people don't share), that seems to me like overkill. Worst case scenario: you stop paying your subscription and then you can still perform this export at that time.
