This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe reader !?

Hi there
I use LiveCycle 8 and I design forms for a target audience using Acrobat Reader 7..
My problem is whatever I put in a form, I get a really annoying message when opened in Acrobat reader 7
This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe reader, Without a newer version, the form may be displayed but not work properly etc....
This doesn't inspire confidence for the user.
I get this message even if I open a new form, add a single textfield and save as Acrobat 7 PDF form.
Is there a way around this ?
Thanks
Chris

I am not too sure, I thought that saving as Acrobat 7 pdf,would do that. Is that not the case ? Are you referring to something else ?
Thanks
Chris

Designer form prompts Reader X error:"This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe Reader"

I have a PDF form that was created using LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2. PDF version 1.6, so it's good for Reader 7.x and above.
When someone using Adobe Reader X tries to open the form, they get this javascript error message:
"This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe Reader. Without a newer version, the form may be displayed, but it might not work properly. Some form elements might not be visible at all. In an internet connection is available, clicking OK will download and install the latest version."
Is there anything I can do to the form that would make this error message go away? Is this a know issue with Adobe Reader X or Designer?

Is there any code running on the form?
Reader X has come out with additional security features that must be disabled to get any PDF form w/code to work.
Open Adobe Reader X --> click on Edit --> Preferences. Under the General Category, uncheck "Enable Protected Mode at startup" (last checkbox in the dialog box). Click OK and try to open your form.

PDF Form Requires a newer version of Adobe Reader

New at this...Created my form in Live Cycle 8.0/Professional 8. Throughout company we are using Acrobat Reader 7.0 and are not at this time looking to upgrade. When our users open this form, get "This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe Reader..." and prompts them to upgrade. Is there anyway I can get rid of this message...a way to make my form know that users will be opening in 7.0 and accept without error?
Also, I'm not able to get the Submit to Email button to work...getting "This operation is not permitted"...how can I fix?
Funny thing is I had been able to get the e-mail button to work at one time, but now, all of the sudden, it doesn't want to work...even on my machine which has Live Cycle/Professional 8 loaded?????
Thanks!

Geo,
Thanks for the quick response. Tried and received: "This PDF document contains an Adobe XML form. Such files cannot be optimized.
Help...thanks again

Wrong warning? to open with Reader (9.3.x or higher) "This PDF form requires a newer version of ..."

Hello
I have a problem with my form, when opened with Adobe Reader Version 9.3.0.148 (included) or higher Reader systematically shows the annoying message "This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe Reader ...".
I work with 3 versions of each form:
1) Dynamic PDF Form XDP: Generated with Adobe Designer ES 8.2, (target version "Acrobat and Adobe Reader 8.0 or later. "
XDP form has no "Warings"
XFA-Template:
2) PDF Form, generated from the XDP form of point 1), using Adobe LC Forms ES2 "renderXDPForm" method.
3) Flatten PDF, generated from the PDF form, resulting in point 2) value, using Adobe LC Assembler ES2.
DDX:
I have generated 3 different PDF rendering, changing only the "target version":
a.1 PDFFormRenderSpec.setAcrobatVersion (AcrobatVersion.Acrobat_6): MyForm-ES-AcroVersion6.pdf.
b.1 PDFFormRenderSpec.setAcrobatVersion (AcrobatVersion.Acrobat_7_0_5): MyForm-ES-AcroVersion7.pdf
c.1 PDFFormRenderSpec.setAcrobatVersion (AcrobatVersion.Acrobat_8): MyForm-ES-AcroVersion8.pdf
Of all that I've created a flat version using Assembler:
a.2: MyForm-ES-AcroVersion6-flatten.pdf
b.2: MyForm-ES-AcroVersion7-flatten.pdf
c.2: MyForm-ES-AcroVersion8-flatten.pdf
Attach all forms of work[zip 4 download].
Well ... I tried to open all forms generated (six) with versions of Adobe Reader from 8.1.0 to 10.0.1.434 X and the findings are that the annoying warning message is displayed only with the flattened forms and from version 9.3 .0.148 (included) or higher.
Table of test, where
OK= No message at open.
Err= Message displayed.
I do not understand or just logical that the most current versions (and higher) Reader is precisely this message to appear at what may be due? What's happening?
Why the message is taught only in the flattened forms?
How I can solve this problem?
Thanks.

I do not use the method "renderPDFForm" (at least not explicitly), instead use the "renderXDPForm (...)".
I added the XDP form the zip (I forgot): download from here!
And the only parameter that you can tell this method over the "target" of the resulting PDF is "com.adobe.idp.services.PDFFormRenderSpec. "
/* Common to all generated PDF */
com.adobe.idp.services.PDFFormRenderSpec renderSpec= new com.adobe.idp.services.PDFFormRenderSpec();
renderSpec.setLinearizedPDF(true);
renderSpec.setLocale("es_ES");
renderSpec.setRenderAtClient(RenderAtClient.No);
renderSpec.setCacheEnabled(false);
renderSpec.setStandAlone(true);
/* Target version 8 o superior: Usede ONLY to generate "MyForm-ES-AcroVersion8.pdf" */
renderSpec.setAcrobatVersion(AcrobatVersion.Acrobat_8);
/* Target version 7.0.5 o superior: Usede ONLY to generate "MyForm-ES-AcroVersion7.pdf" */
renderSpec.setAcrobatVersion(AcrobatVersion.Acrobat_7_0_5);
/* Target version 6 o superior: Usede ONLY to generate "MyForm-ES-AcroVersion6.pdf" */
renderSpec.setAcrobatVersion(AcrobatVersion.Acrobat_6);
After this, process PDF forms resulting in Assembler.
I tried also NO explicitly assign the "AcroVersion" ... and in such cases, the resulting AcroVersion indicated corresponds to the time of design (Adobe Designer, File / Form Properties / Default / Target Version), and in such cases the resulting PDF, also displays the warning message.
I do not know if I answered your question.
Any idea?

I can't open pdf's--since getting newer version of adobe reader

I am using a desktop Mac OSX 10.9.2 and my adobe reader is version 9.5.5

Version 9.5.5 is not the newer version. In fact, it's quite old so that might be the problem. It may be too old for your OS.
Download and install Adobe Reader XI.

Hi,
You may need to design the site again in older version OR may be copy and paste in place from new to old except what is new in the latest version.
Hope that helps!
Kind Regards,

Hi Frnds, Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player.

I am making my own website an
d i have inserted fla videos but i receive
" Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player" Is there any
way that i can make it. pls help me thnx......

What products did you use to create this website - Flash, Flex, Actionscript, Dreamweaver, ...? Please go to the appropriate product forum and ask there.

Dreamweaver CS4 Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player.

I'm working with the CS4 Design Premium Suite. I've done all the updates. I've followed all the steps in the training.
I've used the adobe media encoder to create FLV file from a windows media clip.
Then on a simple new html page. saved to a brand new local folder I try to insert my conent:
I use menu command "Insert _ Media _ FLV" I browse to the file, I insert & save the page
I can see a place holder in design view but if I go to live view I see the message"Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player."
If I preview to a browser I get the same thing,
If I go to the local folder and access the page directly I get the same thing.
I alse created simple SWF file in Flash CS4. Saved in the root folder.
I use the menu command "Insert _ Media _ SWF" I see a place holder.
Save it, save all the files.
Same thing. Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player.
I read online where others are having this issue, someone one said "Why are you using "swfobject_modified?" "Try swfobject.modified"
tried with no visble change.
I thought that flash & dreamweaver are supposed to be fully intergrated?
Why are these seemingly simple operations causing me so much grief?
I'm days behind in my training & on my project due to this problem.   Any help anyone could offer would be appreciated.
Thank you!

Android: This app requires a newer version of Adobe AIR - update now?

Trying to run an app on the Emulator for Android:
and I get this message.
This app requires a newer version of Adobe AIR - update Adobe AIR now?
of course when I do click on the Update button - nothing happens, it just goes back to the main screen of the Emulator.
How do I update it. I now know how to install Adobe AIR runtime into the Emulator, but I can't find how one updates it?
I only installed "adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130219" a few days ago...
thanks

Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player...What??

Hi,
I have a really enoying problem here, please help me out!
I have built my personal webpage in Flash CS3/AS3. I did some updates today, changed some pictures and stuff. Now when I upload and replace the previous *.swf on the server, and try to load my webpage my browser displays the folowing message:
Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player.
I tried exporting with Flas Player 8, and checked it using different bowsers too (curenntly I use the latest version of Firefox), but I get the same error when trying to relode my site. I have no more ideas what to do.
Please help....
Regards

I have been used to this issue for a while now so I take it for granted with the solution.
It seems Dreamweaver has issues with absolute paths when it comes to displaying SWF files correctly.
It would seem that the logical workflow would be to open the File tab and drag the SWF file into place.
Doing this works if you test the SWF file directly in Dreamweaver by clicking on the Play button when the SWF file is active.
But if you view it in a browser using the Web URL you will get: Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player.
This plagued me for ages as I ended up installing and reinstalling Flash Player until I realised this was happening on all Computers that I tested the page on.
If you drag the SWF file onto the page, in Code View you will see in two locations in the generated code: data="file:///C|/path/swffile.swf"
Noe the strange | character after C ?
This needs to be changed to the relative path data="path/swffile.swf"
It will then work in the Browser without the error message
If you go: Insert / Media / SWF and choose the SWF file, it will add it correctly.
It only seems to happen when you drag the SWF into the page.
Hope this helps.

FLV works in preview but "content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player"

I used Media Encoder CS5 to create a FLV file from an AVI file. The video plays correctly in preview (both IE and FF). After I uploaded the page, video, and the script folder (includes expressInstall.swf and swfobject_modified.js), the web page shows "the content of this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player" (in FF. IE just show a partially completed download status bar). I am already at version 10 but I download and installed the player without any success. I am new to web site maintenance so any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

you have faulty swf embed code. i don't know anything about the modified swfobject embedding except it causes problems and has no benefit known to me.

This Adobe Muse site file requires a newer version of Adobe Muse. Please update... I

The thing is, I created a site using Muse last week. Today, I am trying to open it but a message appears saying: <This Adobe Muse site file requires a newer version of Adobe Muse. Please update to the latest version>, but when I try to update the app, creative cloud says Muse is up to date and there is no option to update it. I need to solve this urgently please, I really need this file working today.
Thank you.

If you're part of the Beta program for Muse, this dialog would be displayed if the file was opened and saved using a Prerelease/Beta version of Muse. (Once saved with a newer version of Muse, a file can no longer be opened by the older version(s).) If that isn't your situation, please send us the .muse file at [email protected] (along with a link to this thread for context) so we can investigate further. If the file is larger than 20Mb you can send it using a service such as DropBox, WeTransfer, Adobe SendNow, etc. Thanks.

Are you launching Pages from an icon in your Dock? Installing the update does not change the Dock icons & it does not remove the older versions. Go to your Applications folder & launch the new Pages from there.
