URGENT: Interactive PDF some buttons not working

Hey,
I am having a big problem with interactive PDFs at the moment, evrything has been working perfectly until this morning it decides to go pear shaped - the day before the PDF is needed at a show tomorrow. I have made many interactive PDFs so I know what I am doing but this time I have tried everything and still not getting it to work.
The document is a 61 page, sectioned PDF with a mixture of buttons - go to destination and also next/previous page.
The next/previous page buttons work fine, but the go to bookmark buttons will not work anymore!
I have re-built all the buttons and bookmarks, but still having this problem. This was all running perfect for the last 2 weeks but now it won't work.
Any ideas?
Details:
2013 27" iMac on Mountain Lion
Creative Cloud CS6 (Indesign and Acrobat Pro)
Edit: Exporting to SWF works just fine

SOLVED
The problem was the document source name, has to match the document you are using. I was saving 3 x different files for 3 different purposes, and the bookmarks were getting confused.
Yay

  • Interactive PDF book buttons not working -?

    I have an InDesign book containing 14 files/chapters with a total of 417 pages set up to be interactive. I've exported this many, many times without issues, but now when I export, the buttons on the first page that link to other chapters no longer work. I've tried reassigning the link but it still doesnt work.  Any ideas what could be causing this?
    Could packaging the files have caused something to be lost? I did recently package the files and I'm not sure if its been exported since then. I have tried on multiple computers. Any ideas for fixes or even how to fix it in acrobat?
    Thanks for any help!

    I found that if I convert the button back to an object, then into a button again, they work. But this creates a lot of extra work with rollovers, I'm still interested if anyone has any other solutions.
    thanks

  • Interactive e-mail button not working in Acrobate X

    I am having a problem with a PDF document that was created for me a while ago. Ever since I have upgared my reader from 9 to X(10) the interactive 'email' button that appears on every page of the document no longer launches my email client. This is a text button that launches my email client and attaches the PDF for emailing.
    I have completely uninstalled X, re-installed 9 and everything works fine. Upgrade (or clean install) back to X and the buttons no longer work again.
    Anyone know what gives?
    Also, the inteactive close button has never worked - Always just comes up with a dailog box saying 'this action cannot be performed'??? Any ideas????
    Cheers.

    Not that I have any hope of getting this addressed, but I was also having a problem with the "close" button function and get the oh so helpful "this action cannot be performed" message. However, oddly, after doing the exact same thing — creating a button in InDesign with a rollover "look" but no function, exporting to interactive PDF and opening in Acrobat — about a dozen times, all of a sudden it worked. I have no idea why and I did NOTHING differently. Buggy. Just like many of the other things about interactive PDFs. Seems like Adobe has backed off promoting the whole thing somewhat and I'm assuming this kind of thing is why.

  • BB Curve slow to react and some buttons not working

    This are my Blackberry Curve 8520 specs:
    Signal: -65dBm
    Battery: 100%
    File Free: 106342756 Bytes
    V5.0.0.681 (bundle 1168, Platform 5.2.0.67)
    Carrier: TIGO
    Apps installed:
    Dropbox
    Bible
    Evernote
    Free Chat for Facebook
    Google Maps
    Google Sync
    Handylogs Money
    iLock 2.1
    Laterdude
    Memory Booster
    Multialarm
    Navita Translator
    Role Call Reminders Lite
    Now my problem:
    My blackberry fall directly faced down, the blackberry turn off. Then I pressed the restart button and nothing. so I remove the battery and then put it back again. The BB started, but It got hang up at the screen you could see the little clock working but never start properly so I pull off the battery again and waited like 5 minutes then I put it back.
    Now my BB starts but when I left it idle and some sms arrives or call or simply if I want to use it, I have to maintain pressed any button like 7 seconds if not my BB doesnt react.  I can press repetedly buttons to make it work but nothing works and the only way to make it work is maintain any button pressed.
    After that BB works normally!, but now the "del" button doesnt work, I tried to remove the battery several times but every time gets the same result.
    I made a hard reset twice and restored my contacts only, then I tried to make the BB work normally and guess what........ nothing!!!!!!!
    so I have those two Big problems
    Please anyone with a great idea? or any recomendation to get this thing working again!!!

    I am not using "Clear Recent History". I have read about the session data, as you mentioned it when others had this issue. However, I'm not sure what I'm suppose to do with that. Does it mean the App Tab isn't working as promoted? I got the impression they should load with my Home Page every time I start Firefox and that's what I wanted. I don't want it to load every tab I had open during my last session FireFox. Just the App Tabs and Home Page. That's how it's described in the "What is App Tab" page.
    If I select When starting FireFox... "Load Home Page & Last Session Tabs", it works, but it also loads all the other junk I have open. I don't want all of that to load every time I start, but I also don't want to have to repin all those tabs every time I start. That's annoying. I tried selecting "Use Current Pages" as my Home Page, when I had it set exactly as I wanted it, but it opened all my App Tabs as App Tabs and regular tabs, along with my Home Page. Not quite what I had in mind.
    Am I just misunderstanding how it works? What's the point if you can't just keep the App Tabs and Home page on start up and not all the other junk you have open on close?
    Thanks for answering so quickly!

  • Some buttons not working

    In settings-> Display-> select wallpaper button is not working(need to goto pictures to change wallpaper)
    In settings-> Notifications->Cutomization->contacts->customize for contact button is not working(need to goto contacts to customize anything)
    help me regarding these issues.

    Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner:
    Restart: Press and hold the upper edge power button about 20-30 seconds, ignore the 3-2-1 timer and hold until the screen goes black and you see the red LED.
    Now, after the reboot is complete, give it a few minutes and allow all the data syncing to subside and try again.

  • I purchased I phone 5 from USA covered under Apple care  . I'm in India now. Wake/sleep button not working. Apple care here have refused to replace or repair it though it is still under international warranty. Feeling harassed. Can some one help.

    I purchased I phone 5 from USA covered under Apple care  . I'm in India now. Wake/sleep button not working. Apple care here have refused to replace or repair it though it is still under international warranty. Feeling harassed. Can some one help.

    Is there an "APPLE STORE" in India or you just went in a reseller store?
    There is a replacement program for sleep/wake button for free. Just look for an Apple Store and make a reservation at Genius Bar.
    I have an iPhone 5, bought in Dubai U.A.E.
    It is a US model (model A1428) which is different of the model use here in Italy/Europe
    My serial number is qualified for battery replacement program.
    I thought the Apple Store wouldn't repair my phone because I bought it from another country , a different model and it is already out of warranty.
    The Apple store's staff just checked if my iPhone's serial number is eligible for the program and he replaced the battery for free today.

  • Pdf buttons not working when pdf loads in browser

    hi
    I have a pdf with buttons which work fine. Once pdf is put on our website and you click on it, it opens in firefox ok but none of the buttons work.
    Safari, chrome - work

    The road to hell is paved with good intentions... FF wanted to provide their users an easy-to-use, built-in PDF viewer, which is good. Problem is that developing a fully compatible PDF viewer is a very complex task that requires a lot of time and effort, so they decided (it seems) to settle for something that's "good enough". So now users are stuck with something that usually does an OK job when it comes to just displaying a simple PDF file, but as soon as you have a more complex file (for example, one with form fields) it breaks down entirely and either fails to load the file at all, or does so incorrectly, and the developers are left sorting out the mess...

  • Show hiide Buttons not working in andorid OS and windows mobile OS

    Hi,
    I made a file in Indesign CS6. This file has a map with dots on it. When a user clicks a dot, an info box pops up giving info about that dot. He clicks the box to make it dissappear and can click another dot for the next info.  I achieved this using the hide and show feature of buttons and exported using interactive Pdf. The file works fine on a windows Pc but it does not work on andorid or windows mobile platform. How can I make it work for both?

    I assume that you're talking about Show-Hide Fields in an interactive PDF. It's not likely that it will work given the limitations of most PDF readers on mobile devices.
    I'm a user of an iPad and iPhone, and haven't worked with Android or Windows devices but I think the issues are the same on all platforms. Some PDF readers are better than others. You didn't say what PDF reader you were testing on.
    Here are two articles I've written about the frustrations of getting interactivity to work on mobile devices, in this case, an iPad:
    http://indesignsecrets.com/for-interactive-pdf-not-all-readers-are-equal.php
    http://indesignsecrets.com/navigation-button-tricks-for-interactive-pdf-on-an-ipad.php
    The best PDF reader for iOS devices is PDF Expert, but I don't believe that exists for Android or Windows devices. I can view interactivity that Adobe Reader doesn't support.

  • Pdf object postMessage not working in FF 22

    Hi,
    After updating my FF to 22, i seen pdf object postMessage function does not working. We used adbove livecycle intraactive pdf forms to collect the data from the user.
    When user click the save button from the pdf, postMessage function called, but after update this not getting execute.
    For your reference i include the URL which also had the same problem. I also tried without addons.
    Refer: http://www.windjack.com/WindJack/Browser2PDF/brwsr2acroJS.htm
    HTML to PDF => works
    PDF to HTML => not working (in earlier versions it worked)
    Thanks n Regards
    Mathan

    This is likely the fault of Livecycle Interactive. Most likely, Adobe has not yet provided an update for supporting Firefox 22. I would recommend informing adobe support about it.

  • Iphone 4 volume buttons not working

    iphone 4 volume and mute buttons not working, checked all settings they are all fine and when headphones in it works??? When I take out headphones the volum buttons do not work, when phone rings or text receives only vibrates???? HELP!!!!

    This could be due to some debris or dirt inside the  headphones jack that makes the iPhone think that the headphones are connected even when they are not.
    Try to see if you can clean the jack being very careful, with canned air as sold in electronics store.  Some people have been successful by introducing and withdrawing the headphones jack several times in a row to displace whatever is in there if it is lodged in.
    Avoid introducing anything else like a pointed object.  You could damage the jack.
    If all of this does not work, I would try first resetting the phone by holding the home button and the power button together for about 15 seconds or until the whilte apple appears, then waiting until the phone resets.  If the problem continues after this, take it to an Apple Store to see what they believe should be done.

  • TS3694 No sound and ringer button not working. I cannot play music but when I put my Iphone 4 on the dock it plays music. This happens when I updated my phone to IOS 6.1.3..The phone doesnt have any carriers we only used this just like Itouch. Please help

    Please help. Since I updated my Iphone4 to ISO 6.1.3...The ringer button not working, can't play any music (but ok with the dock), headphone sound is muffled. What can I do? I tried restoring and downgrading but it won't let me.

    Hi there,
    Thanks for reaching out to the community.
    Please help. Since I updated my Iphone4 to ISO 6.1.3...The ringer button not working, can't play any music (but ok with the dock), headphone sound is muffled. What can I do? I tried restoring and downgrading but it won't let me.
    It appears like you may have a hardware issue with your ringer button and internal speaker that came to light after the update. If you have already restored your iPhone back to factory settings using iTunes, you may need to have your phone serviced.
    Some potential good news... Check your headphone jack for lint. There may be enough to cause a muffled connection. You can try to blow it out with compressed air or very carefully pulling out any solid objects that may affect the connection.
    Best of luck!

  • Music buttons not working in lock screen on my iPhone 4 after iOS7 update.

    After I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS7, the music buttons like PLAY, REWIND and FORWARD are not working in the locked screen as well as on swipe up menu. Any resolution please?

    hi there
    i had a problem with my wifes iphone 4s, today morning while travelling to work i changed a setting on repeat option and changed it to repeat artist, it was fine until when i finish my work and on my way back i found songs are not playing anymore, lots of stop signs next to my song list, play/pause button not working, album arkwork keep moving from one to another on its own, so after i reach home i try to do some research on Apple support communities, try to soft reset my phone closing all the apps on background didnt work, also note that control centre music player was not working as well. none of the solutions worked. after trying for two hours i found out that the trouble is in repeat options , so i changed it from repeat artist to repeat off. and the music start playing as usual, but i still have those stop buttons next to the songs i tried to play earlier. At least it fixed temporarily. please also note that in the meantime i tried to sync my phone with the pc and suddenly its start syncing all the songs again assuming there were no songs on my iphone.  so guys i think soft reset might not help all the time but try to remember what settings you changed recently and change it back to the original option, not sure ,but it might help.

  • PDF Portfolio does not work with iOS Reader 11.3.2 on iOS 7.1.2

    Well this is upsetting. I created a PDF form with several pages of the same form (it's a travel log).
    My hoping to use Adobe Reader to complete the form and save back as a week at a time won't work.
    I created the form using Acrobat Pro 9 from CS5.
    Does anyone know if a PDF form in a Portfolio should work with Adobe Reader on the iPad2/
    Also, what can I use that works with forms as a portfolio?
    Ken

    Ken,
    please could you describe your workflow. It might help to find some solution. Also it would be great if you can share a sample of your document. Please email it to [email protected] with the reference to this discussion "PDF Portfolio does not work with iOS Reader 11.3.2 on iOS 7.1.2"
    thank you.

  • Why can't I get some buttons to work on websites? Need to enable something?

    Recently, I am not able to use certain portions of 3 websites that I used to be able to use. I can get to the pages, and some buttons/links work within pages, but when I try to click on some buttons on some pages, nothing happens at all. The computer is not frozen, I can do other things on the page. Example #1 - I was trying to access my photo albums at Snapfish.com but I cannot access my albums, or select albums to which I will download photos. #2. I was trying to create a gmail e-mail address. When I tried I had a message about enabling something. Didn't know what it meant or how to do that. Any ideas on what to adjust on my computer so that I can do what I used to be able to do?
    PowerBook G4 Titanium   Mac OS X (10.2.x)   768 MB Ram

    Which browser are you using? Do you have Enable Java checked in it's preferences? When you get a message it's a good idea to write down exactly what it says rather than dismiss it and wonder later what it said about something.
