Unwanted Security Settings

I really hope that someone could guide me in the right direction for this.
I need to create a log in shell and I am using Adobe Live Cycle Designer 7.0 I am using a PDF template that was originally created in Corell. When I open the template in Adobe Acrobat and check the security settings of that document everything under the restrictions summary is allowed. When I open the template in Adobe Live Cycle the only modification I make is text modification and background image change. When I save it as different file name and open to view PDF, the restriction summary changes to some field becoming not allowed. I can not find where those setting are being set in Adove Live Cycle and how I can turn them off to make the form accessible to the person I am sending it to.
Thank you in advance for your help.

I asked other people too, but just in case, please allow me to post my question here as well.
I am submitting the government grant application and they specify that all the document features should be allowed (editing, commenting, document assembly, etc). It is to allow reviewers to comment on and assemble applications.
When I am working on a document in Acrobat, all these settings are allowed. When I attach the document to the application submission program that is based on the Reader (provided by the government), some settings (e.g. Document Assembly) are Not Allowed.
What does this mean? Should I be worried? Or should assume that reviewers must have Acrobat to open these files, so they should be able to assemble, comment on and edit documents?
Thank you,

Security settings for a pre-teen.. how to

Request how to set up Firefox for a 12 year old to ensure proper security.
== This happened ==
Not sure how often

Hello Jay.
In terms of local security, it's the operating system's job to ensure that a specific user account is not able to damage the computer using Firefox (such as installing unwanted add-ons and things like that). If the Windows account the 12 year old is using is not set at administrator level, he won't be able to install software that you don't want him to install.
You may want to check the security settings of Firefox (these are [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Profiles profile] specific, so be aware of that) at ''Tools > Options > Security''.
If your intent is to prevent the user from accessing adult rated websites, you may want to try using software to block the access to those sites. Firewalls usually do that (there are many available in the internet, paid or free), but there is also dedicated blocking software, or you may want to search for an extension for Firefox at http://addons.mozilla.org
I hope that helps.

Change Flash Security Settings? Security Manager Offline?

Hello
I have downloaded firefox and flash player, I have content
which when I run it, flash blocks it wisely and reports that the
page is trying to access other content etc.
I need to allow the accessing to other content but I dont
have internet at home, I understand I need the global manager
security settings panel which of course shows fine on this intenet
conencted machine but at home it just brings up a dead URL because
of no tcp/adsl etc.
I am sure this is a standard question answered millions of
times before Im sorry to bother you guys, Have a great year every
one and good luck Adobe.

The reason you can't access it offline is because adobe flash
player is effectively a trojan. There is absolutely no reason to
not have local, offline access to adjust settings to a local piece
of software, even if it is a plug-in. That goes to the heart of it
right there. The settings are stored locally, so what the hell is
the GSM doing? Well, it's doing what it specifically says it is not
going to do (on the GSM page) and modifies personal data on your
system. These settings may be benign but the method employed is
typical virus behavior. Adobe has never given a reason because they
know they have a front door into everyone's machine that made the
mistake of installing the flash player plug-in. Even microsoft had
a big deal about it because they put it in the WinXP install and
sure enough, flash player had a huge security hole. They knew it
and did nothing. Adobe knew it and didn't care.
You might look for a hack that modifies the settings locally
rather than relying on a known virus-type of access that adobe
clearly wants to your system.
Adobe should be set on fire for this kind of behavior.
btw:
check out this file: (it'll be on your local machine)
\documents and settings\(your username)\application
data\macromedia\flash
player\macromedia.com\support\flashplayer\sys\
and the file is
settings.sol (it's a binary file)
SWF should never be allowed to modify anything, it's supposed
to play animations, yet adobe's ocx (the plug-in) seems to do just
that without any notification or warning that it's going to do
something to your local system. Again, this is classic virus
behavior; performing some unwanted/unwarranted task(s) without
notice. I've play with the flash maker before, I remember you could
do some things with clickable links. But nowhere do I recall it
giving the ability to modify someones local files, that was just
too much freedom.
adobe needs to either fix this or drop flash player. I know
it's fairly prevalent on the web, but with security risks like
these that adobe doesn't want to fix it's just dynamite. Better
yet, how about make our flash swf files able to access adobes'
internal network? Sounds fair to me.
You'll also probably see a bunch (or just a few or even none)
of directories that start with # in the ...\sys directory. Under
which each one may have another settings.sol file. If you do a
little research on the web you can find a ton of people who've had
security holes opened because of entries in these files. adobe may
want to deny it but you can read about it all over the place. adobe
flash player has even been at issue with rootkits (look them up,
quite nasty) and the problems that go with them. So yeah, adobe
reached a new low the first time I saw that.
It's crap software like this that gets unleashed on the
unsuspecting public and techs like myself have to clean it up.
Furthermore, we have to try and find alternatives to what has
become too well-established. Flash became popular before people
really paid any attention to what adobe was actually doing on their
systems. That's why everytime I have to uncorrupt a system I go
looking for things like the flash player plugin. Some days it's so
bad I'd like to see a plane hit the adobe hq, that'd be some
justice.
If only companies like adobe would release trustworthy
software, yeah, I'm still looking for the pigs with wings.
And yet still more bs: while almost every piece of software
I've ever installed goes into it's own directory or under
..\program files\... look where adobe puts itself. Deep inside
...\Windows\...
Here's where I found mine
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\
with several different directories under there. Like a damn
tick it burrowed itself into the main windows directory. Which is
also typical of a virus.

When previewing my website in Dreamweaver flash crashed - I need to change the security settings but don't know how to do this

I use Dreamweaver and Adobe Bridge to create slide shows on my website. When 'previewing' the slideshow - in Dreamweaver it opens Firefox - it crashed and the dialogue box opens telling me to change my 'settings' - it doesn't do this if I preview in IE - which I don't understand. I need help in knowing where to go to change the security settings so that this doesn't happen. Incidentally, when I am on the web through Firefox, my website slideshows work perfectly>

You can set the pref dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs to to -1 on the about:config page to disable the timeout.
See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/Plugin-container_and_out-of-process_plugins
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

Security settings changing. Is there a work around?

Hello,
I work for a "Company" that has ten's of thousands computers loaded with the latest version of Adobe Reader X. Unfortunately when we create a form in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro it cannot be signed by anyone using Adobe Reader X. Some how the security settings are changing when the form is open in Reader X. When the form is opened using Acrobat 9 Standard the form can be signed...the security settings have remain the same as when we built it in Pro. Is there a work around or something I have missed? This is a rather urgent issue as it will be effecting our whole "Company" and in the meantime we have been told to use another product until a solution is found. Your input is greatly appreciated!

The usage rights must be enabled in Acrobat Pro.

How can I get a downloaded application to run when security settings won't allow it?

I am trying to run an application today that I downloaded from Safari. I run this every single business day by control - clicking to open it in Finder. Today it won't allow me to open it all because of my security settings. When I temporarily remove my security settings it still will not let me open it. How can I run an application every time, when I want to run it, regardless of my security settings?
I am using Safari, Mavericks, and MacBook Pro.

Your control is allowing the app to run or not. I'm not sure what other type of control you could possibly mean since any app, once running, does whatever it does; you can't control any app past that point.
If you prefer not to disable the settings in the System Preferences, then right click on the app and choose Open. That will allow that app to run while still leaving the basic security feature on. You only need to do this once. The app will be assumed as trusted after that.

Security Settings in Robohelp 9 PDF files

I think this is a Robohelp problem because it only happens when I launch a PDF from a Robohelp-generated site. It does NOT happen in Adobe Acrobat. It may be a conflict with Windows 7 - we just loaded it yesterday - because before that everything worked.
We created a PDF file with interactive fields, and NO security settings. The file has signature fields that populate with your digital ID when you click the red tag. It works just fine in Acrobat - you can type data into the fields, and the digital ID dialog launches when you click the red tag. If you click OK, the field displays your digital signature.
However, when I launch the file from online help I created with Robohelp 9, I get an error message stating that the security settings on the document don't allow adding text or placing a signature on it. I double checked, and there is NO security. See the attached images. Is this a bug? Should I report it?
Thanks

Hi there
I'm wondering if the following is happening to you.
When in Acrobat, you are viewing the document differently and able to make edits. When you are opening the PDF from RoboHelp (or more accurately, the browser) you are presenting it from the PDF reader and not Acrobat. Thus you have different capabiities.
Cheers... Rick

Seeing a bunch of SSL related posts today so is likely a bug in OSX 10.9 but probaby not fixable until a fix is released.

How do I deal with "StartUpItems if2k" has not been started because it does not have the proper security settings?

Whenever I turn on or restart my MBP, a dialog box appears saying --> “/Library/StartupItems/if2k” has not been started because it does not have the proper security settings.
How can I fix this?
First, I searched online and found a site with a If2k_Remover_V2.zip file, but whenever I try to open the link, a page comes up saying,
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /w/files/if2k/If2k_Remover_V2.zip on this server.
Any thoughts on this?
Also, I see the if2k folder in the Library/StartUpItems; is it something I can just drag into the Trash? Or would that be a bad move?

Did you ever figure this out? I just upgraded to Lion on my Air and I have the same issue.

There are other things that need your attention.
Your System Details List shows multiple Flash plugins.
* Shockwave Flash 14.0 r0
*Shockwave Flash 11.6 r602
You can find the installation path of all plugins on the about:plugins page.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Issues_related_to_plugins#Identifying_installed_plugins
You can check the Flash player installation folder for multiple Flash player plugins and remove older version(s) of the plugin (NPSWF32) and possibly (re)install the latest Flash player.

How to Change Security Settings on an Existing Wireless Network

I'd like to change existing network security settings to WPA2, AES or at least to from TKIP to AES.
I'm familiar with browser access to the router and with how to change the settings on the router.
My question is how to do this as painlessly as possible for the network. Step by step would be nice
I guess first I have to change the router settings using the computer running Easy Link Advisor?
Do I then have to disconnect/reconnect that computer?
Do I have to disconnect every other computer and then connect each one again with the updated settings?
Will the change in security settings affect my print server? If so, do I have to set it up from scratch in ELA?
For the record, I have a WRT-300N and the print server is a 54g.
Anyone who reads this may also want to look into recent news. May not be a big deal, but a vulnerability of WPA/TKIP has been identified.
Thanks in advance to anyone who answers.
Solved!

Do I really need to set security for my wireless connection. I searched for available WiFi in my area prior to installing my network and none were available. Does that matter?
The network never did function right from the start. My desktop is a Dell Inspiron 510n and is not wireless capable? So when I tried to add my HP mni 1000 it did not let me access the Internet.
So now I have an unsecured network. Am I vulnerable to attack?
Which leads me to my real question How do I change the security settings?
Oh yeah, my home computer crashed due to a program I downloaded, so I do not have access to it. i'm a mess....
Thanks,for any help

How to change security settings in Flash Player if internet is unavailable?

I have a local html page that has an embedded .swf file,
which is also on my local computer. The .swf file is for local use
only when there is no Internet service available. The first time I
open the html page on an internet browser, IE, I got the Flash
Security prompt window, which asks me to change the security
settings. The setting change is done online under the url:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04a.ht ml
If there is no internet connection, how then can one change
the security settings so that one can access the local swf? Any
help would be appreciated.

How to make signature field work for reader users? Security settings change when doc is extended???

I've been struggling to correct a problem all week and am at my wits end. Customer service was no help as the person I spoke with could barely speak english let alone understand the problem as I explained it to him. Hoping someone here can provide some insight, here's the issue:
I'm using a Windows 7 Professional OS. I created a Microsoft Word doc and used Adobe Acrobat XI Standard to create a form from it. It automatically detected the fields, which includes a signature field. I went through fixed it all up how it needed to be and did "save as other - reader extended pdf - enable forms fill in & save in reader".
The document is a report that will be sent to a small number of people that have to fill it out, digitally sign and return and I'm assuming that most if not all of them will open the document using the free Adobe Reader. So I thought extending it is what I needed to do to make sure they could fill it out, save it to their computer if need be, and also sign digitally. The signature field was automatically added in by acrobat for me and I did not change the properties of it at all except to add a border.
When I open the form in Reader (also XI) I can fill out all the fields, save it... but not sign it. The security settings say signing is not allowed even though I went back to the original pdf form and the security settings on it say allowed for everything. I don't know how to fix this... please help!!!
I've attached some screen shots but can include more if needed...

I don't have the Enable More Tools option under Reader Extended PDF. I just tried to download the XI Pro trial version and it won't complete installation because of the standard version I already have. Any advice or workarounds you know of? Going to the boss for $$ to upgrade to Pro is what I'll consider my last resort if the issue is truly that I have to use Pro to enable more tools for reader.... I appreciate your reply though. I sat here all day yesterday fingers crossed that SOMEONE would give it a go!

LMS 3.2.1 on Solaris 10 - Setup Center / System and Security Settings Empty

Hi All,
When I get to the LMS Setup Center / System Settings option I can a screen that shows no options. The same happens when I try the Security Settings option.
I've attached a capture of the screen.
Thanks,
Jose Ribeiro

We're starting to see more and more users install on Oracle-branded Solaris. There is a workaround to installing on newer Solaris. You can modify /etc/release, and remove the word "Oracle" from the release name. Install LMS, then restore the original file. We're still trying to get an official word from development as to what our Solaris support plans are.
