Trouble With Password Encryption in Acrobat 8.1 Professional

Can someone suggest a solution or are you experiencing the same problem? Each time I g
o to password encrypt, I get an erro message saying that 8.1 encountered an error and is closing.
This happens several seconds after clicking on the passord radio button.

Not that silly; but you ideally shouldn't be trying. Although there are some rudimentary (and sometimes unpredictable) editing tools in Acrobat, (I presume you are trying with the TouchUp Object tool as well as the TouchUp Text ?) much better to get it right in the source application and think of the pdf as what it basically is...a print.
For whatever reason, v5 could edit text positioning rather more easily than the later versions.

Troubles with passwords after upgrade

Hi, we upgraded the system from 4.6 to ECC 6. and now some of our users have the problems with passwords (login).
We suspect that more users have the same password. Is it possible that in new verision users need to have different passwords?
Thanks and BR
Saso

Note: SAP ECC 6.0 password is Case Sensitive.

Trouble with Select tool in Acrobat 9

When I try to make a selection in a .pdf, the selection box is randomly sized and placed. For example, I select an area in the middle of the page, but when I let go of the mouse the selection box reduces in size and moves up/down the page. I am selecting an area with graphics, no text. This does not happen with all my .pdf documents, only certain ones that have been created within certain programs (e.g., ArcGIS 9.3 and geoPDF's).
The Snapshot tool works fine, but the resolution of the selection is much poorer than what I get with the Selection tool after I paste the selection into a Word document.
Is there a way to fix this, or change the settings on the Snapshot tool for better resolution so that I can use that tool instead?
Thanks in advance for your help.

I suspect that's not the problem, as I have no trouble selecting an area of any size I wish of images/objects most of the time. The Select tool, at least in Acrobat 9, allows you to do this.

Trouble with Drawing Markups in Acrobat Pro XI

Hello all and thank you for any help that comes out of this.
I use Acrobat XI for several forms for work. They are timesheets. I created these forms from another PDF that was given to me. Part of the use of these forms involves adding Drawing Markups and editing the Markups later. The Markups in this case are simple lines. In Acrobat 9, this was an easy task. I could easily grab the Markups I had inserted and manipulate them any way I chose.
Now, in Acrobat XI, once I insert a line, I basically can no longer touch it without doing a very clumsy work-around. Every once in a great while, I get lucky and am able to get my mouse over that one magic hidden pixel and then I can grab the Markup and do what I need.
It just seems much, much more difficult working with Drawing Markups in the new version.
Am I doing something wrong? Is there an option I don't know about?
Thank you in advance.
Dave

Gilad:
The only choices Acrobat XI gives me are the "Selection tool for text and images" and the hand-shaped "Click to pan around the document" button.
There is a "Tool Set" option under the View menu, but there is no "Interactive Objects" submenu.
Please note the image I have included of the toolbar that I am presented with in Acrobat XI. Does the button you are suggesting I use exist anymore? I haven't seen it since Acobat 9 and I have scanned through menus and see no way to add another Selection Tool to the toolbar. If it does exist, please tell me how to turn it on.
Thank you!

Trouble with windows after deleting Acrobat 9 Standard

After I delete Acrobat Standard 9, via the control Panel's Add/Remove Programs, I can no longer use any thing from the My Computer window (Windows XP). No matter what I click on the hour glass appears and the workstation freezes, I have to power down the workstation. Even when this is done the issue does not go away. I am forced to redo the desktop image. This happens no matter which 9.0 update I have installed. I have tried them all 9.1, 9.12 through 9.4.

I suspect that's not the problem, as I have no trouble selecting an area of any size I wish of images/objects most of the time. The Select tool, at least in Acrobat 9, allows you to do this.

Troubles with Windows after installing Acrobat X

I built a Windows 7 machine from scratch twice and ended up with the same issue. As soon as I install Adobe Acrobat X Standard, Windows Explorer freezes whenever I right-click on something in Windows Explorer (icon on desktop or inside folder). I disabled the Acrobat Shell Extension but still have other problems. I was unable to print anything to any of my printers. If I right-clicked on a printer, it would freeze up again. If I restarted the print spooler service, it resumed normal operation. The first time I upgraded to the latest update (10.1.13) and had the same problem. After the second reload, I left it at the default version 10.0.0. I have the same problem either way. I was able to remove all of the printers from Windows through registry and Windows System32 and recreated my printers. I also recreated the Adobe PDF printer per Adobe's instructions on their website. My initial tests proved successful. But when my user went to try it, the "Creating Adobe PDF" window came up and he got about 3 bars and it froze. I went in and tried printing some other PDFs, and it did create the files, but it would not let me delete the files. It indicated that Acrobat.exe still had the file locked. When I tried uninstalling Acrobat, it would stall part way through until I restarted the Print Spooler service. I have also tried disabling the AntiVirus (SEP).
I have spent way too many hours setting up this PC 3 different times and troubleshooting this. My gut says that there is a Windows update that may be interfering with this. But I don't know where to start. This worked fine on his previous machine (same version of all software.
I would appreciate any assistance. Surely someone else has run into this before. Thanks in advance.
Bill

HT5625 Sometime trouble with password ? So being it hard ttime.

My iPad 16GB and Model A1416 . So thank you for helpping !

OK with a little googling around I discovered the DISH DVR formats its external drives for Linux using the ext file system. Windows cannot natively read ext formatted drives. If you plugged it into a machine running Linux you could read the drive. There is also a Windows program that will allow you to read ext formatted hard drives right from Windows.
http://www.ext2fsd.com/?page_id=16
This may also be kind of a fools errand because I am also seeing that the movies on the hard drive may be encrypted and can only be read by a DVR running your account anyway. If you just want to wipe the drive right click on each of the rectangles in Disk 1 and select delete volume or delete partition until the whole box is blank then create simple volume and format it ntfs and you have a useable external drive.
You could also just delete one of the partitions like say the last one on the right which is 396.26 gb and then create a new partition in it and format it ntfs and give it a drive letter and then you would have a storage space for your laptop files. You could then keep the movies on the rest of the drive for when you get a new DVR. As I understand it from the DISH forums, when you plug the hard drive into a new DVR it will give the option to set it up to work on that DVR. Also I am not 100% clear that the external drives have encrypted movies. That may only apply to people who pull the hard drive out of the DVR and try to get movies from it.
This is an interesting project. The real easy way to see if the movies can be played from a PC is to make a Linux Live disk like ubuntu, boot the system from it and plug in the hard drive while you are running Linux from the Live disk. You could then see if you can see the movies and if they will play in the Linux media player program and it would not cost anything or change anything on your computer. Post back if you want more info on how to try that.

Trouble with passwords

Hi all,
every time I start an application like Mail or Safari which wants to fill in passwords I am asked to type my user password, but I am already logged on.
This is getting on my nerves and I don´t know how to stop this. HELP!

This is a security feature. But you can - if you choose - disable it.
if you want to allow an application, such as Mail, to access your keychain without asking you, you can select this option in Keychain Access.
To set up automatic keychain access for an application:
Open Keychain Access, located in Applications/Utilities.
Click Show Keychains if the Keychains list is not open, then select a keychain.
Select Application in the Passwords category. (Click the disclosure triangle if Application doesn't appear.)
Double-click the password in the Keychain window, then click Access Control.
To allow access to this password by any application, select "Allow all applications to access this item."
To control access to this password, select "Confirm before allowing access."
To require the keychain password instead of the application password, select "Ask for Keychain password."
To add individual applications that can access this password, click Add and navigate to the application you want to add.
IMPORTANT: If you select "Allow all applications to access this item" for an item in your keychain, you make it easy for a computer virus or other software to read the password.
Click Save.
I got this from Mac Help (click on help in the Finder and search using 'keychain'
