Using old G4 to submit CT600 company tax return to HMRC, unable to submit

This is an odd one, was wondering if anyone else has come across this problem
I'm nurturing an old G4 as my main computer, as I still want to use the old Cinema Display monitor.
Last year (April 2012) I prepared my Company Tax Return CT600 for the HMRC, was able to  download the HMRC document (designed for Adobe Reader), change the Trust settings as instructed in the HMRC leaflet, and complete the form. I made a number of attempts to submit it - there is a link to click on the last page of the return to submit.  I got the rainbow wheel for several minutes, then a "submission failed" message from the HMRC "helpdesk".  Repeated calls to the Helpdesk produced no help, but the comment that they were looking at some problems with the software and compatability with old MACs.
I should say that I'd used their online service on the same computer for all the other company tax affairs, and my own self assessment tax, with no problems at all.
Because they were unable to solve the problem, they offered me the chance to submit a paper return, for that year only.  However, I went to my neighbour who runs Windows Vista, and he was able to submit the form for me with no difficulty after he had changed the Adobe Trust settings as instructed.
I assumed that HMRC would have addressed the compatability issue - if that's really what the problem is - by this year. But no - tried to submit for the current year, and same problem, rainbow wheel, followed by the "submission failed" message from HMRC, timecoded, so presumably the form at least tried to submit itself it to their servers.
So before I go round all my friends' computers with the file and try again, I just wondered if any vintage MAC enthusiasts who run small companies might have come across this one and found a work-around?  Or could it be an ISP issue, though never had problems submitting any other kinds of forms online to any other organisations.  I'm interested in finding out if there is a solution!

  • Signature/trust/cerificate/HMRC corporation tax return

    Hello,
    I am trying to complete a CT600 corporation tax return via HMRC website but I am unable to progress through the form because of an autosave error message which arises due to trust settings which have not been activated.
    I followed adobe help which stated I would need to amend the certificate settings and validate the signature. I followed these steps and validated the signature. This did not resolve the issue.
    I checked the support forums and found that there was HMRC advice on the issue.The HMRC guidance states that certain settings must be applied to the certificate or signature before validation. I did not apply the correct settings and now I am unable to amend the settings (the settings I am referring to are those which are illustrated by the red and green ticks on the manage certificates screen.
    Please help by confirming how I can change settings once a signature has been validated.
    Kind Regards
    Michael

    The links you have posted are for the HMRC guidance I referred to in my original query. If you refer to step 12 in the guidance you have posted (for adobe reader version 10), it shows an image of the "trust" tab on "certifcate viewer" which has been accessed by going through "signature properties." In the image there are green ticks for "Execute high privelege Javacripts..." and "Perform priveleged system operations." On my version of the document there are red crosses for these two items, because I did not follow step 8 correctly (I did not check all of the appropriate boxes because I was using Adobe help on managing trusted identities rather than the HMRC guide). I have validated the signature but I am unable to go back and amend the privelege options because the option to "add to trusted identities" (see step 7) has been greyed out. Details on how to amend the information is not included in the HMRC guidance.
    Can anyone help further?

    How do I replace numbers with text in tax return pdf using Adobe Acrobat X Pro? The tax return was created using CCH software. Thanks for your review.

    Thanks Bill for your quick reply. CCH software is one of the major
    suppliers of tax return software. I found an internal source that helped me
    make the changes from numbers to text i.e. "$123,456" to "See Schedule O".
    I am not sure if I am working in form or final text. Thanks again! Kelly

    Hi,
    if you start report via SE38. program name RFUMSV00 you can read the program documentation. In here it states what is needed:
    ...In addition, the report provides data for the electronic advance return
    for tax on sales/purchases. The administration report for electronic tax
    returns (FOT_B2A_ADMIN) then directly sends the return to your relevant
    tax authority.
    To use the electronic advance return for tax on sales/purchases, make
    the necessary settings in the screen area Posting Parameters under
    Electronic Advance Tax Return.
    For more information, see the SAP Library under Financials -> Financial
    Accounting (FI) -> Financial Accounting  General Topics -> Taxes
    (FI-AP/AR) -> Taxes on Sales/Purchases, Sales Taxes, and Additional
    Taxes -> Electronic Advance Return for Tax on Sales/Purchases.
    Hope this gives you a beginning.

    I,m having problems trying to file my SARS tax returns via SARS efiling on their website sarsefiling.co.za .They use adobe reader to open their documents ie EMP201 PAYE and EMP501 VAT returns

Thanks linda Desperate now ...........

    I think I found a Windows setting that is causing the issue. I'm using
    my LCD HDTV as the monitor for this computer, and in order to see the display easily, I have the following setting in Windows 7: Control Panel > Appearance and Personalization > Display > Make text and other items larger or smaller > 150%.
    When I change this to the default of 100%, the problems with Reader X in Firefox and IE disappear. Reader 9, however, works perfectly at 100% and 150%.
    Is this a known bug in Reader X? Since the problem only appeared when moving from Reader 9 to Reader X, it seems it's not an unsolveable incompatability or something that's too difficult to work around.
    Do any others with their displays magnified have this problem? Or does it work perfectly? Would anyone (preferably with Windows 7 64-bit) be willing to set their display magnification to 150% and see if they can replicate the problem?

  • Using AR Invoice but for Inter-company but with Workflow Approvals

    My client is using AR invoices (FV70) for inter-company transactions for other businesses that are not yet on ECC.  They also utilize workflow for their normal manual journal entries which can go through up to 4 approval paths one of the latter which requires an inter-company approval.  Does it make sense for inter-company transactions that will begin with the AR invoice to go through the same approval paths from the beginning similar to how they wish to do it for regular journal postings (FV50)?

    If the location of the companies is the same then Approval Paths does not make sense, however depending upon location changes and more importantly if their are different indirect tax liabilities on the two participating companies then the system might be required.

  • PCI-MXI-2 Using old drivers on new OS

    I have a PCI-MXI-2 card that is currently in a Windows Xp computer.
    The windows xp computer is using the driver  NI VXI 2.1.1 (Windows 9x/NT/2000).
    This current setup works. I would now like to move to Windows 7.
    The card is connected by VXI to a VME-MXI-2 card, which is configured with three measurement cards from an outside company.
    Because of the hardware that I am using, I believe I must keep the orriginal driver in order for it to work. I have not been successful with newer NI drivers.
    Does anyone have advice on using older NI drivers on newer operating systems?
    I have not been having much luck with this approach so far.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Update:
    - I removed all the national instruments software
    - I installed the old drivers on Windows 7 in compatibility mode (ni vxi 2.1.1, VISA shared components 1.6, IVI shared components 2.2.1)
    - I made sure that all software was the same version as on the old machine
    - I then configured the boards with T&M manager
    Success. Everything now works.  This is a very valid approach for those using old hardware that can't handle the new drivers.

  • Is it possible to use old Apple Flat Panel Display (62 watt power adapter) with MacBookPro 13" Mid-2012 running 10.8.4? Tried mini display to VGA cable

    Is it possible to use old Apple Flat Panel Display (62 watt power adapter) with a MacBookPro 13" Mid-2012 laptop?  Would like to use larger screen when working at home.  I have a mini display port to VGA cable and have tried to hook up the old display but it seems not to work.  When I try to activate the screen on the old display-- a window comes up in the MacBookPro and asks me if I want to shut down the computer.  What little I have read it that the MacBookPro had Thunderbolt and the old display may not be compatible?  Any assistance would be appreciated.

    11.09.12 22:16:06,148 ClamXavSentry[286]: I will quarantine infected files
    This doesn't have anything to do with your problem, but it will likely cause other issues with your e-mail.
    Here's my standard recommendation concerting the use of A-V software to deal with potentially infected messages:
    Never use ClamXav (or any other A-V software) to move (quarantine) or delete e-mail. It will corrupt the mailbox index which could cause loss of other e-mail and other issues with functions such as searching. It may also leave the original e-mail on your ISP's e-mail server and will be re-downloaded to your hard drive the next time you check for new mail.
    So, if you choose to "Scan e-mail content for malware and phishing" in the General Preferences, make sure you do not elect to either Quarantine or Delete infected files.
    When possibly infected e-mail files are found:
    Right-click/Control-click on either the infection or file name in the ClamXav window.
    Select "Reveal In Finder" from the pop-up menu.
    When the window opens, double-click on the file to open the message in your e-mail client application.
    Read the message and if you agree that it is junk/spam/phishing then use the e-mail client's delete button to delete it (this is especially important when the word "Heuristics" appears in the infection name).
    If you disagree and choose to retain the message, return to ClamXav and choose "Exclude From Future Scans" from the pop-up menu.
    If this is a g-mail account and those messages continue to show up after you have deleted them in the above manner, you may need to log in to webmail using your browser, go to the "All Mail" folder, find the message(s) and use the delete button there to permanently delete them from the server.
    To fix the corrupted mailbox index(es), highlight each one that was corrupted and choose Rebuild from the appropriate menu.

  • I have an iPad 2 and used old Apple ID for iBook app; now it wants to upgrade but I have a new Apple ID, how can I make certain I don't lose any data in my iBooks?

    I have an iPad 2 and used old Apple ID for iBook app; now it wants to upgrade iBook but it is "stuck" on my old ID, yet I already created a new ID but it won't let me update the App.  I have everything backed up on my MacBook so if I delete iBooks on my iPad and retrieve the App under my new ID and then sync with my MacBook, will I still have all of the books, etc.?

    Your purchases are tied to your Apple ID. If you bought all of the books with the old ID then AFAIK you will have to continue to use that ID in order to continue to sync those books to the iPad.
    You have to update the app with the old ID so I don't see how you could keep the books with the new ID. Maybe I am wrong about this, but someone else will chime in I'm sure and correct me if I am wrong.

    How can I block all other mail account just to only use the exchange mailbox of our company? This is to prevent the user to setup his on company iPhone.

    I don't know if I'm asking this all in a way that can be understood? Thanks ED3K, however that part I do understand (in the link you provided!)
    What I need to know is "how" I can separate or rather create another Apple ID for my son-who is currently using "my Apple ID?" If there is a way to let him keep "all" his info on his phone (eg-contacts, music, app's, etc.) without doing a "reset?') Somehow I need to go into his phone's setting-create a new Apple ID and possibly a new password so he can still use our combined iCloud & Itunes account?
    Also then letting me take back my Apple ID & password, but again allowing us (my son and I) to use the same iCloud & Itunes account? Does that make more sense??? I'm sincerely trying to get this cleared up once and for all----just need guidance from someone who has a true understanding of the whole Apple iCloud/Itunes system!
    Thanks again for "anyone" that can help me!!!
