Update fields when opening a document

Hi,
fields like REF or Formulars (SUM, PRODUCT, etc) are not automatically updated, when values change they refer to.
The easiest way is, to press Ctrl+A to select all, and then press F9.
But perhaps customers are not aware of this functionality and wonder why some values are not correct. May be the document is automatically generated by other Software with those fields, which are then not uptodate, when the document is opened the first time
by the user. He may not even realize that a field is behind a certain value unless he change the flag to display fieldcodes.
I know there is the setting in the options Dialog, where you can force an update before printing, and I wonder whether there is no way to do this during opening the document, is it ?

Hi,
I'm marking the reply as answer as there has been no update for a couple of days.
If you come back to find it doesn't work for you, please reply to us and unmark the answer.

    Pages crashes when opening any document on iPad 3 Latest version. I tried everything I could find on the net and finally deleted Pages from my device and reinstalled it. Still when I try to create a new document or open a document it just crashes out.

    Try this:
    Make sure IOS is updated to latest version
    Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings

  • InDesign cs3 crashes when opening CS2 documents

    ID cs3 crashes when opening CS2 documents, not when open dialog appears, but after I choose file and it "starts" opening it. (core duo, xp, clean install, all updates)
    If i open ID by opening file, it crashes with standard windows dialog, if I open ID first, it does not crash, but rather behaves strangely, nothing is opening, if I move a mouse it turns to sand clock.
    Same thing happens on all machines with ID cs3 in my office.
    All other apps works fine. I did read every single forum about ID crashing and nothing helps. Files resaved in interchange format opens well. There must be something in the files that ID cs2 did and what id cs3 cannot open :( Any ideas?

    1. Is there any reason to use eps? Avoid it use AI, PSD or PDF instead.
    2. Are all used fonts ok? What kind of fonts du you use?
    3. Which Mac OS X do you use?
    Does it crash with alwayst the same files?
    What does the file history tell you? Hold down the command key and got to InDesign > About InDesign… Does it tell you somewhat more specific, like missing plugins, severly damaged files and restored files, when (in which version) the files have been created first (helps often to export to IDML and open this again and save it as INDD and work with the new file.), has the problematic file been converted from another application (Quark Xpress or PageMaker), etc.

  • Why do I keep getting an error "insufficient data for an image" when opening a document

    why do I keep getting an error "insufficient data for an image" when opening a document in Adobe Reader XI 11.0.06

    I am also having this problem, especially with scanned documents. Since I need to download scanned documents in my work this is a big problem!Sometimes I can read but not save the document, sometimes one or two of the pages will be blank from the start. I have the latest version of Adobe Reader XI (11.0.10). I tried reducing the page zoom, a suggested workaround on this page: Acrobat: “Insufficient data for an image” error after updating to 10.1.4 or 9.5.2,  but that did not help at all. FWIW I use a Windows 8.1 PC with 4 GB RAM. I usually download PDFs from the internet using Firefox.

  • Pages 5.5.1: When opening a document created with Pages '09 (Version 4.0) with Pages 5.5.1 the page header and the page footer are deleted. How can this be prevented? Or is this a bug in Pages 5.5.1?

    Pages 5.5.1: When opening a document created with Pages '09 (Version 4.0) with Pages 5.5.1 the page header and the page footer are deleted. How can this be prevented? Or is this a bug in Pages 5.5.1?

    Same problem here (no graphics in header or footer) and the problem has been reported months ago. It is another bug/feature lost when Apple moves from 09 to the iCloud-compatible versions.  Complain to Apple, you may have better chance than me and they may finally listen to their users....

    I would recommend releasing and renewing the IP lease on the affected computer. The following article provides further information and details the process of doing so.

  • Sort order of files when opening a document within a program

    When opening Explorer, files are correctly sorted in alphabetical order.
    When opening a document (say within Word), if I search a folder then the files/folders are in a strange sort order - something like last used or modified. I don't know how this happened. I want them sorted alphabetically like in Explorer.
    What do I need to do? I'm fed up of having to sort every folder each time I open it within a program.

    > Is there a way to change the way DW sorts the dirs and
    files in the file list
    > window (other than reversing it)?
    have you expanded the Files Panel, made the sort by clicking
    on the
    headings, then collapsed it?

  • I'm getting an error message "There was an error when opening this document. Access denied" on some PDF's that I was able to open in past. Uninstalled XI and installed X but same problem. Any thoughts?

    I'm getting an error message "There was an error when opening this document. Access denied" on some PDF's that I was able to open in past. Uninstalled XI and installed X but same problem. How can I access these files?

    I have exactly the same problem. The interesting thing is that the file opens when I attach it to an email and open it out of the email. I already saw the advice you provided in  similar post from Aug last year and checked the security settings of the file and the folder. But according to that I have all rights.
    My OS is Windows 7 Enterprise.

  • HT202879 How do I fix "the required index.xml file is missing?" when opening Pages documents?

    I can't open any documents from my son's iPad.  Error message: the required index.xml file is missing.  How do I fix this error so that I can open his Pages documents?  Before I ran the latest update as prompted when I opened Pages, I WAS able to open and view the document.
    I did try restoring Pages using my Time Machine, but it still won't open the Pages document.
    I have a brand new iMac that I just set up last week. 
    Son uses iPad at school, so we update when the school asks him to update.  Will doublecheck his version of Pages but it should be pretty recent.
    In general I don't like using Pages because it lacks a lot of the backwards / forwards compatibilty of Microsoft Word. 
    However, it is what my son uses with the iPad. 
    Most of the time I have to export his files as WORD files because we never seem to have compatible versions of Pages between the iPad and the desktop iMacs. 
    Where can I recommend that Apple improve its compatibility issues with Pages?
    This week I am going to receive a new iPad at my school (I am a teacher) but I am 100% certain that it will not be compatible with the older version of Pages on my classroom iMac.  I also avoid using Keynote for the same reason.  I have 15 year old Power Points that I can still open, but I am hesitant to switch over to Keynote because I want to be able to open my files any time, any where.
    Please advise.

    Not sure what v5 is. Someone helped me and opened it through Pages 5.2, through the program, rather than the Finder. Thanks for making a suggestion!

  • Office Web Apps Issue - "Sorry, something went wrong" message when opening a document (any MS docx,ppt etc) in IE. With Chrome, it pops (Microsoft Office needs your permission) message and on RUN, it opens the document.

    When opening any Microsoft documents ( docx, ppt etc) in SharePoint 2013,
    Internet Explorer behavior : "Sorry, something went wrong" An unexpected error has occurred message and then nothing happens. 
    In Chrome : Pops (Microsoft Office needs your permission) message and on clicking RUN, it opens the document.
    In Firefox : the documents opens, after asking which application do you want to use to open it.
    The feature (Open Documents in Client Applications by Default) is not activate.
    Why the MS documents are not working in IE 10?

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you failed to open Microsoft documents in SharePoint 2013.
    I recommend to Run the following PowerShell in OWA Server :
    Remove-OfficeWebAppsHost # To Remove any restriction
    Or
    New-OfficeWebAppsHost -Domain <String> # To allow specific domain Name
    In addition, you can allow OAuth via HTTP using the following commands:
    $config = (Get-SPSecurityTokenServiceConfig)
    $config.AllowOAuthOverHttp = $true
    $config.Update()
    Here are two similar articles for you to take a look at:

  • Acrobat Reader 9 Crashes PC When Opening 2 Documents Simultaneously (2D Graphics Acceleration Relate

    Hey all,
    Weird issue. I noticed my Adobe Acrobat Reader 9 crashes when opening two PDF's simultaneously. The first one opens just fine. The second one, a new window opens, but there's only black inside the 2nd Reader window. It finally (after way too long) begins to show the document, and then I get a blue screen of death with a fault in nvlddmkm.sys, the nVidia display driver for my video card. It says it was unable to reset the display drivers, dumps the memory, and reboots. One interesting note is that if I close the "black" window before it blue screens, I can continue using the computer with no crash. It's only if I give it time to try to display.
    I already found the temporary fix for this, which is disabling 2D Graphics Acceleration in the Acrobat Reader (Edit -> Preferences -> Page Setup). Fortunately I'm on a fast computer, so this doesn't affect performance much, but it still obviously isn't ideal, and I'd like to see the problem resolved.
    I don't experience this problem with any other programs at the moment, so I'm thinking it's an issue with Adobe's product or possibly the nVidia drivers, but thought I should mention it and see if anyone has any other possible fixes where 2D Graphics Acceleration can remain enabled.
    Thanks all!

    I am having the exact same issue... it's so frustrating! Does anyone have a solution to this?
    Running CS4 on a Core i7 workstation w/ Win 7 64-bit, latest BIOS and video card drivers (ATI Radeon 4890). Acrobat is version 9.3 with all updates. It freezes for 30 seconds just as described, every single time you launch it.

  • Pages & Numbers crashes when opening a document ,no documents found when iCloud is turned off

    I have just upgraded my iPad to IOS7 and my MacBook Pro to mavericks running the latest iTunes and also update pages and numbers.both crash when old documents are opened and the programs will only function if iCloud is switched off in settings but only when creating new documents .I have upgraded for more storage space and have 6GB free, many of my documents are invoices and are now unavailable to me so the situation is becoming quite desperate.
    Any help would be useful .

    Hi Amy
    Welcome to the forum.
    There are a few bugs in Snow Leopard.
    You need to upgrade using the downloadable Combo OSX 10.6.2 upgrade.
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosxv1062updatecomb o.html
    Do not upgrade using Software upgrade.
    The principle cause is a damaged Hoeffler Text font.

  • Remember size and location when opening saved document (CS5)

    Greetings,
    It would be nice to have a preference to remember screen rendered document size and location when saved, then the document opens at the last used size and location; I now reposition and resize every time I open my documents, which is often.
    Perhaps this feature has not been forgotten or omitted, maybe I just haven't found it yet?
    Garrett

    "I now reposition and resize every time I open my documents, which is often."
    Yeah, you said it... Which means that 100 times a day I curse Adobe for not including such a basic, fundamental capability.
    It's hard to believe that they do any testing by real users at all... How could they have missed this? And why haven't they immediately fixed it in a point update?
