What happened to being able to view links in PDFs on the iPad?

We create our board packets in Adobe Acrobat on a computer then send them to our board members who receive them on their iPads.  When we create them on the computer, we make specific words links so that during the board meeting, our board members can tap on the word and it jumps them to the pay within their packets that discuss that topic.  We also make links at the bottom of the pages of each section to take them back to the agenda page (they say "back to top").  Over the last couple months, we've noticed these links don't show up when we open the board packets in the Adobe Reader app on the iPads, but they did used to show up.  They show up in the file if I open it on my computer.  They also don't show up on a file I have uploaded to Google Drive for our board members to access.  Any thoughts or suggestions on how to get this working again?
Thanks!

Hi jcwords,
Results may vary depending on how hyperlinks are defined in your PDF documents.
Here's an example of the PDF document containing the hyperlinks that work in Adobe Reader for iOS.
http://wwwimages.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/products/acrobat/pdfs/adobe-acrobat-xi-cre ate-pdf-files-tutorial-ue.pdf
You can transfer the file to your iPad/iPhone, open it in Adobe Reader for iOS, scroll down to the bottom of the page, and tap one of the links: "Convert PDF to Word", "Convert PDF to Excel", etc.
Adobe Reader for iOS will display the confirmation dialog and open it in Safari (web browser) as expected.
What happens when you tap the hyperlinks in your PDF documents (that are generated by the latest version of Acrobat)?  Does it do anything?  Do you see an error message?
It is possible that (a) the hyperlinks for web pages in your PDF documents are not defined correctly or (b) Adobe Reader for iOS has a defect that prevents the hyperlinks from working correctly.
We need to take a look at individual PDF documents to properly diagnose the cause of the problem.
Would you share one of your PDF documents with us (Adobe)?  I can send the instructions on how to privately share your PDF document(s) with us in a separate email.  If you don't mind sharing a PDF document in this public forum, you can provide the public link to your PDF document using "Share Public Link" in Adobe Reader for iOS.
Thank you for your help.

    n mountain lion calendar, the alerts on give you a "close" or "snooze" options.  What happen to being able to select how long you wanted to snooze your alert?

    SnoozeMaster is now avaiable from the Mac App Store, for MacOS X 10.8 and up.
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/snoozemaster/id614955483?mt=12
    It addresses this exact issue. You'll be able to configure different pre-set snooze times, enter custom snooze times when an alarm triggers, etc. It's what snoozing should've been from the get go.

  • What happened to being able to shuffle a playlist?

    I seem to have lost the ability to shuffle songs when I updated my iPad recently.  What happened?

    Thank you very much but I'm not finding the any UI elements that map onto "Bookmarks -> Bookmark This Page" that you describe. However, the hot key sequence (Ctrl D) and the right context menu in the page get me what I'm after and the latter was right in front of my face so thank you for the respectful answer.

  • What happened to being able to SAVE AND CLOSE your tabs so they are there when next you bring up Firefox???

    I used this feature ALL THE TIME and now it is gone!
    WHY??

    Hi,
    Firefox automatically opens the previous session, if '''Show my windows and tabs from last time''' is selected in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Options''' > ''General''' > '''When Firefox starts'''. Even if that is not enabled, you may still be able to restore the previous tabs via '''History''' ('''Alt''' + '''S''') > '''Restore Previous Session'''.

    Before archiving you have to put the Deletion flag for the object(May be for PO, MMR etc as per your req.)...
    After that the you use the archiving procedure to archive the docs which are already flagged for deletion...
    For MMR you use the transaction SARA...and its respective object for the archiving....
    You can use the SDN search to see the many threads on it...
    Or use this link as per your req. and make the search...

  • What happen ?why can't i print a pdf any longer ?? very very frustrated uninstalled reinstalled 3 times ??????????

    What happened ? Why can I no longer print PDF on my mac pro???????? Uninstalled reinstalled 3 times very very frustrated

    I cant print anything now from my computer to my hp printer.  Never had this happen until November or December.  Then it seemed to be OK. now today I cant print one thing.  not from my gmail, or the Matrix portal I use as a realtor.  My office partner is connected to the same printer and his is fine.  Mine prints nothing.  All I get is a print screen that says loading preview... and the .. keep moving and nothing ever shows up.  If I try to to to a PDF (which is the only way we could print anything after some update last fall from the Matrix portal) it just spins ... and nothing happens .  WE use to be able to print without having to save everything to a download and that changed.  now I cant print anything.  I need help fast.... I can't get my work done at all and I'm getting very frustrated.
    I uninstalled the adobe reader and re-installed it and nothing helps.  We have 2 others printers in our office and it wont let me print to them either or allow me to save it as a PDF so I can print it out that way.;
    I need HELP!!!  Can't work this way and not sure what happened to cause this problem as things were fine earlier today.

  • HT204088 Are you able to view iTunes purchase history on an iPad?

    Are you able to view iTunes purchase history on an iPad? I am looking for purchase price as well.

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    The level of information that you seek is available in the iTunes app on a computer. You can view the invoices for your entire purchase history for both the iTunes stores and the Mac App Store from there.

  • Any new info about being able to sync my iphone 4 with the Palm Desktop on macs running snow leopard?

    Any new info about being able to sync my iphone 4 with the Palm Desktop on macs running snow leopard? Why doesn't someone take a a few hours and write a workaround so I can sync all my info including my Palm notes to my iphone via Palm Desktop without putting it in the clouds or making it complicated?  : (

    I feel your pain.  I am a long time user of Palm Desktop/Claris Organizer and have an iPhone that I really can't sync except by doing an export and import into iCal, etc.  You might try Missing Sync.  I have been working intermittently with writing a replacement for Palm Desktop, but I've only gotten as far as dumping out the information for everything (except repeating appointments) as an XML file.

  • What happens to my current Yahoo email users when I modify the domain ns?

    What happens to my current Yahoo email users when I modify the domain ns?

    Changing the name servers for a domain would require you to re-create the MX records at the new DNS provider's end to point to your existing email service provider. You might experience downtime during the transition/propagation period.

    Most of us in this forum are users who volunteer on technical issues, and not Adobe employees although they do drop in from time to time. As users we simply have no control over activation and that's why you are not getting responses.
    If you havn't done so,you might try the Muse forums and see if you can get a staff member to look into it. Have your case numbers and phone transcripts handy.
    Last option is to keep calling customer service until you get someone who will help or ask for a supervisor.
    Hope this get resolved,

    Yes! As long as you don't delete your project files/library, you'll be fine.  When you install the full version, it might create a new library, go to your movies folder or wherever your current library is and just double click it to open it.
