'Replace pages' not modifying form element positions - is there another way?

PDF form design in InDesign, bring pdf into Acrobat to add field validation JS. All good.
Modify form in InDesign, 'Replace pages' in Acrobat to get new design changes in without losing JS. 
Good, except Acrobat won't bring across any altered positions of form elements, only non-form elements like text and images.
Adding the JS to the PDF created by InDesign each time the form changes is time consuming.  Tried adding the JS in one go via "Edit All JavaScripts" but Acrobat won't retain. It seems to want each form field's JS added to it individually.
Is there another way? Thanks.

That is exactly the point of the Replace Pages command. It replaces the underlying page while maintaining the objects on top of it in their place.
If you want to insert a page with all of its objects in tact then you should delete the old page and then use the Insert From File command (under Tools - Pages) to add the new pages. I believe that will do what you're looking for.
The 'Insert From File' I expected would lose any script I've applied to an element previously on the page, which would be totally understandable. I guess the form elements are in a tricky position, being both an intrinsic part of the design (InDesign) and Interactivity (Acrobat).

    Sorry Glen, but there is not. And you don't have to upgrade to 10.6 (Snow Leopard).  You need at a minimum of 10.5.8 (Leopard).

    I hope there is a solution to this problem note that I can not use the iPad now

    Your question makes no sense and I'm not sure if you typed very quickly and autocorrect went nuts on you, or if you are not a native English speaker and Google Translate didn't work properly. If you are saying that you forgot the passcode to unlock the iPad, follow the instructions here.

  • Hello, when I tried to restart and diagnose my computer it would not catch my wifi. Is there another way I can do it?

    I tried to do diagnostic test on my macbook pro mid 2012. But when I got to the internet connection screen it would not catch my wifi. Is there another way I can do it? Also, when I click on about this mac it does not open up.

    you can try signing out and back in.  if you are on mac i've seen posts here where they had to do something to fix, but i cant remember what exactly.
    you can also try direct download from here

    I am one of those people who will not allow intrusions into personal information (will not accept permissions). Is there another way to download Firefox for Android other than through Google Play?

    Please note that that file does not have an updater. We generally point users to the Aurora build of Firefox for Android as it has a self updater. http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/mobile/aurora/

  • I recently had my hard drive replaced and now iTunes won't allow me sync my iPhone without deleting all the media contents and replacing it with the existing library. Is there another way without erasing everything?

    I have already backed up my iPhone, yet it still will not allow me to move the contents of my phone onto my computer. Rather, it wants to delete everything off of my phone and replace it with the contents on my iTunes. Is there a way I can integrate both my iTunes and iPhone? There used to be autofill on iTunes, but I can no longer find it.

    Hello there, DollyVong.
    The following Knowledge Base article has great information and steps to follow on getting purchased content from your iOS device to your computer:

  • I lost my Iphone and do not have icloud activated. Is there another way to track where my phone is?? its a 4s

    I lost my Iphone 4s and I do not have the Icloud feature activated.  Is there another possible way to track where my phone is?

    If you enabled Find My iPhone, you may be able to track it by logging in to icloud.com, click on Find My iPhone and seeing if the phone's location is listed.
    If you did not enable Find My iPhone, there is no way to try to track your phone.

  • HT1539 My computer shut off during the download and now it says my code has been used but it did not download to my iTunes, is there another way to download it?

    Can someone please tell me what to do if I was downloading a digital copy of a dvd from and website and my computer turned off in the middle...now it tells me the code has already been used but it did not download, ugh.
    Thanks

    You may need to put the iPad into recovery mode for it to be recognised by your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad and re-sync your content to it.

  • Since upgrading to 10.8 I've had alot of issues burning DVD's. I've had the drive replaced and now I can burn from a new user account but not the old one. Is there any way of making the old one work?

    Just want to avoild spending hours migrating everything across....

    Yes, I can read but just can't write DVD's. I get:
    This disc can’t be verified and might be unreliable. Try again using a new blank disc (error code 0x80020063).
    Originally I thought it was the old Moutain Lion DVD drive issue (but have had the drive recently replaced by Apple), so I tried creating a new account, which worked.
    In the old account I have reset SMU, Pram... but no change.

  • In contacts there is the possibility to add a new event, as the birthdays, but they do not appear in iCal. Is there any way to make that possible? It is normal to have a person with his birthday, anniversary and others key dates you want to link to him.

    In contacts there is the possibility to add a new event, as the birthdays, but they do not appear in iCal. Is there any way to make that possible? It is normal to have a person with his birthday, anniversary and others key dates you want to link to such person, but the only one shows up is the birthday. How to be able to show all those dates linked to people in the agenda in the iCal?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I sugggest you try my application, Dates to iCal. It is shareware with a 2 week trial period.
    Dates to iCal 2 is a replacement for Apple's birthday calendar for iCal. It has a range of features to allow the user to choose what, and what not, to sync to iCal from Address Book.
    As well as automatically syncing birthday dates from Address Book, Dates to iCal 2 can sync anniversary and custom dates. It can set up to five alarms for each date in iCal and can also set different alarms for birthdays and anniversaries. It allows the option of only syncing from one Address Book group. This application also allows for the titles of the events sent to iCal to be modified to the user's preference.
    Best wishes

  • Besides a PDF Portfolio is there another way to add Pages to a PDF that have fields of the same name and still have them Unique?

    Besides the PDF portfolio is there another way to add pages to a PDF file that have the same name in form fields and still keep the different pages unique

    ■ Use '''Tools -> Options -> Applications ->''' <br> then look under content for Adobe Acrobat forms etc;
    <br> note a choice of options is usually available
    * see [[Options window - Applications panel]]
    Firefox is of course a web browser. <br>Acrobat reader is Adobe's program used to read and display the pfd files on your computer. Other programs may be used instead of Acrobat reader. You would normally have the Acrobat program and the pdf file present on the local computer, often both on the same hard drive, if you were opening individual pdf files directly with Acrobat.
    Firefox uses a plugin so that it may use Acrobat to open pdf files and display the results within a firefox window or tab. If you do not have that plugin installed, or it is not enabled firefox may be unsure what to do with the file and offer to save it to whatever your default local download location is, without attempting to open the file in firefox.

  • I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?

    I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?
    Let me explain a little more. I had downloaded a lot of free books in the past as a trial when iBooks was first released and since then I have decided I no longer want them, because of this I hid them from the purchased section of the iBooks store. The 5 books left are ones I decided to keep as seen in the following picture.
    This is how it appears in iBooks on my mac. There are 4 books downloaded and 1 book that I have decided not to download at this time. I would still like to keep this book available in the cloud incase I want to download it again in the future. You’ll notice that hide iCloud books is not selected, if I wanted to hide the book that I have chosen to keep in the cloud, but have not downloaded yet I could.
    This is exactly how I think this feature should work. If you have hidden a book from your purchases it should not show up in the mac Ibooks app. (I am aware you can never actually delete a purchase, just hide them and that hidden purchases can be restored to your account from within the account management section of the iBooks store).
    The iOS app is working differently for me. Here is a picture of the purchased tab on the iBooks store in iOS Ibooks. Again notice that pictures of Lilly is still yet to be downloaded. This is how I expected it to look.
    If we visit the front page of iOS iBooks the view is very different from what I expected. Here we can see the 4 books I wanted to keep on my device and have downloaded. We can also see the 1 book I wanted to keep, but did not want to store locally on the device and left in iCloud (Pictures of Lilly). However we can also see all the books I had hidden from the purchased section of my iTunes account and which I believe should no-longer be visible, Dracula, frankenstein etc…
    I am aware of the hide iCloud books button within the iOS app, but I did not need to use this to hide the books I had removed from the my purchased section of the iBooks store on the mac, why are they still appearing in iOS?
    I’m still not sure if this is a software glitch or not. This article suggests to me that books can be hidden, but I had already completed these steps.
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201322
    A browse of google also suggests people may have been able to hide past purchases from the front page of iBooks on iOS in the past.
    In case there was an issue with syncing I tried logging in and out of my iTunes account via settings in iOS. Force closing the app, disabling automatic downloads and removing my device from iTunes in the cloud. Syncing with iTunes on the mac did not correct the issue either.
    Interestingly I have the same issue on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3 as I do on my iPad mini suggesting that this might be an issue either with my account or with iOS iBooks software in general.
    If there is a way to remove the already hidden iBooks in your account from the front page of iBooks on iOS without using the hide iCloud downloads button? Please help community!

    Not in Acrobat unless your image is already in the PDF format.
    This is a feature of forms created with LiveCycle Designer.
