What would cause a single user not to be able to edit the fields in a form? All other users are able to edit the form.

I have a user who is unable to edit his time sheet in Adobe Reader XI. It worked fine in Adobe Reader 9.6. I recently upgraded his reader to version XI and he lost the ability to edit the fields. I re-imaged his machine and re-did his profile. He was able to edit his time sheet. A week later he's back to where he was. He was able to go to another machine with Adobe XI and edit his time sheet but he can't do it on his normal workstation. His time sheet shows the purple bar at the top telling him to fill out the form and that he can save data typed into the form. We're running XP SP3. How can I troubleshoot this?

My guess would be keyboard related.  I'm guessing the field you're trying to fill has a keystroke event allowing only certain types of character.  If the keyboard is faulty OR if the keyboard's layout (English, french, numLock, capLock) have been changed, allowed character could be someplace else.
I would first verify the presence of a particular format or a keystroke event in the format tab.  I would then test my layout by typing charaters in another application such as notepad.  Any chance the maximum character allowed would have mistaken be set to 0?
Also, I see you mentionned:
He was able to go to another machine with Adobe XI and edit his time sheet but he can't do it on his normal workstation
By Adobe, I'm guessing you mean Reader.  Is it possible the default application on this other machine is Acrobat instead?  If it is the case, the problem would probably be the way the file was created and maybe it would require to enable Extended features.......

  • What would cause iPad to suddenly not connect to wifi

    all of a sudden both iPad and ipad2 will not connect to wifi.  have matched everything up and also reset modem

    There have been many reports here of the wifi failing on ipad2's that are running ios8. It has been speculated that ios8 is the culprit but I've not heard anything definitive. Since both of your devices have failed I would check the router first by going somewhere that has free internet or friend or family that has one. Staples and stores like it generally has free internet access if you have something of the sort around your area. It will help to point you in the right direction in telling you if it''s the router or your phones if you don't have luck with basic trouble shooting.  Good luck.

  • What would cause my computer to not be able to "all of a sudden" not be able to download videos?

    I've always been able to download videos from You Tube, using it's You Tube Downloader HD. However, yesterday when I tried I would get an error saying I couldn't download the HQ version  and did I want to try the AVI normal version.. If I click on Yes, it said unable to download the AVI normal did I want to try the 240p version. When I click on yes it says unable to download video.
    I updated the You Tube downloader, did two system restores and still not able to download any videos.
    I've never had any problems before and haven't downloaded/installed any new software.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on why this happened all of a sudden, or, where might I start looking to find a a solution?
    Any info appreciated.

  • IPad mini not recognised by iTunes after updating to iTunes 11.1. All other devices are recognised...

    After upgrading to ios 7, adn iTunes 11, I had some problems with both airplay and having my ios devices not recognised by iTunes. After a few fixes (re-installing Apple Mobile Device support ) manually, all is now looking good, apart from my iPad mini.
    Windows recognises it when I plug it into any of the USB pports on my PC, however iTunes does not see it. The device is recognised by iTunes onother windows and Mac computers I have.
    Is it posible to isolate which driver is being used by the mini, and uinistall it? I guess that if Windows sees the device as a "new one", it will re-install the device driver, and probably fix this issue.

    Hey there BeakyGB,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    Great troubleshooting done so far. I would next try this article named:

  • DPS: pinch and zoom function not working on all pages within folio (v30 tools using the pdf setting). What would cause some pages to pinch and zoom fluidly, while other pages appear a bit sticky? Could it be a button on the wrong layer?

    What would cause some pages in the same folio to pinch and zoom fluidly, while other pages appear a bit sticky? Could it be a button on the wrong layer that's not allowing the pinch and zoom to work?
    I do have a "go to state" button that enlarges graphic to full page on the page. Could this be cancelling the pinch and zoom functionality? Would a box with text wrap ON affect the ability to pich and zoom? What else may be causing this?

    I do  not see a Photo streaming icon when I open iCloud.  What would cause that?

    The cloud icon means you've already downloaded those Apps in the past and they are in your purchased history.
    For payed apps this would allow you to redownload them without having to pay again.
    Just tap on the cloud icon to start the download.

  • What would cause an IMAC to recognize one printer on a wireless network and not recognize another printer?

    What would cause an IMAC to recognize one printer on a wireless network and not another printer?  I have a smaller HP and a an HP 4600.  The computer recognizes the smaller printer but not the bigger printer even though the printer in Settings and shows up on Settings, but I cannot print to it. 

    Do you have a printer driver installed for it? When you open the Print dialog have you selected it from the Printer dropdown menu at the top of the dialog?
    Do you know that the printer is working and is properly installed (Added?)

  • What would cause the flash not to fire?

    What would cause 580ex not to fire?

    Can you be more specific?
    When you power it on, you should get a red Pilot light when it's ready to fire.  If you press the light (it's a button) it should test-fire the flash.  That will confirm the flash actually works.
    You can tell the camera to disable the flash... this is useful when you just want to use the flash's focus-assist beam to help the camera lock focus, but do not actually want the flash to fire.  Check your camera menu... probably under "External Speedlite Control" -> "Flash Firing" and check that it is set to "Enable".

  • What would cause the original I Pad shut itself off while playing games or online? it is not a battery issue or time issue. When I turn it back on it goes to were I was  when I was online ,but have to start games over.

    What would cause the original I Pad shut itself off while playing games or online? it is not a battery issue or time issue. When I turn it back on it goes to were I was  when I was online ,but have to start games over.

    The original iPad has a slow processor and only 256 MB of memory so it often runs into low-memory failures.
    Double click the home button and dismiss all of the recents - I do that weekly.
    Then reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider - I also do that weekly.
    Both seem to help to reduce the low-memory faults that occur.

  • What would cause iphone to not turn on?

    Recently my iphone 5 started freezing up when left charging overnight. I must hold home and power button for ten seconds to wake up. What would cause this?

    Standard troubleshooting...
    Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider if, it comes up. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    Remove all apps from Recently Used list...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
    - Press the red (-) to delete all apps from this list.
    - Press the home button twice when done.
    If still a problem restore with your backup.
    If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
    If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.
