Why doesn't Adobe Reader let me save the editable form on my computer?

Hello,
I am using Adobe reader 10.1.2 I downloaded it free from the internet.
When I download an editable PDF real estate contract from the internet and try to fill it out and save it on my desktop it doesn't let me save it. It says I can only fill it out and print it for my records.. I think it's some kind of security issue maybe?
Does anyone know what the problem is?
Thank you!

The PDF form that you are trying to fill in, does not have Reader Extended rights enabled, and hence, can't be saved onto your disk with all the data. This can be done via Adobe Acrobat but not Reader.
You can refer to http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/9.0/3D/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7e0d.w.html for more information.

  • Why will my Adobe Reader 9 not open the downloaded CA6 Beta file?

    Why will my Adobe Reader 9 not open the downloaded CS6 Beta file?

    Hi,
    If your asking about the photoshopcs6_p1_installnotes.pdf, then it should open with Adobe Reader 9. It does for me with Adobe Reader 9 (9.5.0) on OSX 10.5.8.
    The PDF is saved to version 1.4.

  • Why doesn't Adobe Reader XI load when viewing online PDFs?

    This is probably a stupid question, but I noticed something odd last night.  I have Adobe Reader 9 on my netbook and Adobe Reader XI on my main computer.  I had been browsing some online PDF files on my netbook, and in Adobe Reader 9 I get the Reader "interface", i.e., there is the border surrounding the PDF, with the page number box at the top and I can search the document for various things.  On my main computer with Adobe Reader XI, the PDF files are simply downloading and I don't have the Reader "interface" anymore, so there's no way to search for items or go to specific pages.  Is there someplace to edit my settings in XI so that I get the interface?  Thanks so much for your help.

    Open Chrome
    In the address bar, type chrome://plugins and press Enter
    Scroll down to the entry called Chrome PDF Viewer and click Disable.
    Scroll to the Adobe Reader or Acrobat entry and click Enable.

  • Why is raw opening my original picture in the edited form?

    I'm trying to open an unedited picture in adobe raw, but everytime I click on the file, raw opens the pic with an edited version of the picture.   I can see the picture in its original from as a thumbnail on my computer, but when it opens, Photoshop is reverting to an edited version.  How do I get this to stop.  Any help or adice would be REALLY appreciated.  Thanks.

    Opening in the edited form is the normal mode.  The only reason you can see the unedited version as a thumbnail is that you are using Quick Thumbnails.  If you used HQ thumbs it would show the edits also.
    If you want to delete the edits go to edit/develp settings/clear settings.  If you click previous conversion it will put them back.

  • Why doesn't adobe reader print

    Adobe Reader has stopped printing for me. I don't recall when the problem started, but until recently I could print easily. Now, every time I try to print any PDF file (old or new, including files I've printed before), I get his message: "The document could not be printed," followed by "There were no pages selected to print." That latter statement is always untrue. I should add that I have no trouble printing from other programs.
    Today, I uninstalled Adobe Reader 11.0.08 and downloaded the program afresh. No difference when I tried to printed.
    What can I do to restore the print function?

    It took me a while to find how to disable the protected mode in Security
    (Enhanced), but after doing that, I managed to get Adobe Reader to
    print! Thanks very much--both for your good advice and for your prompt
    response.

  • Why doesn't Adobe Reader open?

    When I try to open Adobe Reader it says "An Internal Error Occurred" Then it "quits" and says "Adobe Reader Quit Unexpectedly". If you select "Reopen" it repeats the "Quit" sequence all over again.
    I removed all (5, 8, & 9) Adobe Readers from my computer and downloaded a new copy of Adobe Reader v9 and still get the same message.
    I have documents to open and need advice on what I should do. I have a MacBook Pro
    Thank you

    I'm pretty sure the solution you're looking for is here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/404/kb404082.html
    If that isn't correct, then you need to dump all of the Adobe Reader and Acrobat folders from
    HD\Library\Application Support\Adobe
    HD\Library\Preferences
    Home\Library\Preferences
    Also dump:
    com.adobe.acrobat.pdfviewer.plist,
    com.adobe.PDFAdminSettings.plist,
    com.adobe.Reader_x86_9.0.plist,
    com.adobe.Reader.plist, and
    com.adobe.acrobat.90.sh.plist
    wherever you find them in the HD\Library\Preferences or User\Library\Preferences folders.
    Once you've done that, empty the trash, and install Reader 9.3.1.

  • Allow Mac Adobe Reader user to save filled-out form

    I have created an interactive PDF form for a client's website. Her patients are able to fill out the form and submit it to her. She is able to receive the form, but cannot save it to her Mac using Adobe Reader for the Mac. She says it goes blank when she tries to save it.
    I created the form in LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2. I double-checked in Acrobat 9 Pro, Extend Features in Adobe Reader, and it says "This document already has enabled usage rights in Adobe Reader".
    Does my client need to have Acrobat in order to save the filled-out forms?
    I will attach a test copy of the form.
    Thank you very much,
    Heather

  • Why doesn't Adobe Reader X start?

    I'm running Windows XP.  When I try to start Reader X, I receive:
    "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtine Library
    Program: c:\aol.exe
    This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.  Please contact the application's support team for more information."
    Any ideas?
    Steve

    1. After uninstalling did you reinstall runtime packages?
    2. Assuming that you did complete virus/malware scan after the error; could you please check and confirm in your running process (Open Windows Task Manager-> Processes Tab->Enable the check box for Show           process from all users) that anything like aol.exe is not running there.
    3. Also check there is no entry of aol in Add or Remove Programs and check if any file aol.exe exists in home directory.
    4. I found something related to this error in the following link, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/884538 see if this fix anyhow fixes it

  • Why won't Adobe reader no longer let me view previously download (from Safari) pdf's? I am running OSX 10.8.5 and have uninstalled and reinstalled latest version of Reader?

    Why won't Adobe reader no longer let me view previously download (from Safari) pdf's? I am running OSX 10.8.5 and have uninstalled and reinstalled latest version of Reader. I get this error message "Adobe Reader could not open 'OD Test Bed Proposals_0.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."  I have tried changing the 'open with' options too. Thanks

    Try this:
    Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    Trash the AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin files
    Empty the trash
    Relaunch Safari. You can now download undamaged PDFs.

  • Why does my Adobe Reader DC stop working when I click scroll down options?

    I used to use PDF Suite 2014 Standard to view pdf files.
    However, tonight a message appeared when I attempted to open files saying ..."if the document does not load then the pdf viewer may not be able to display this type of document"
    I went to the website provided to download Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.
    Although I was able to load pdf documents and fill in forms, the program repeatedly would crash whenever I attempted to click on scroll down options on forms.
    Any help is appreciated
    ....and talk/write slowly for I am not super computer literate.
    Regards,

     Dear Aedesh, Thank you for your assistance.  I did all that you instructed below, regarding uninstalling, and using the Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool.  I restarted my computer, then installed Adobe Acrobat Reader DC (for Windows 7, English and version: Reader DC 2015). I continue to have the problems: (1) When I attempt to use a scroll down option within a pdf form, the program stops working. (2) If I send the pdf to my iPhone, and I open the pdf, I receive the message "Please wait...if the message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your pdf viewer may not be able to display this type of document..." However, when I send pdf's created earlier than 4-28-15, I am able to open in my iPhone.I am able to open on my laptop the pdf's created after 4-28-15, but have the scroll option issue  (thank you in advance for your patience)Luisa

  • Why doesn't adobe just join the AAF/Turakiri/Incommon and accept Institution credentials?

    Why doesn't adobe just join the AAF/Turakiri/Incommon and accept Institution credentials?
    I'm just going through the academic purchase process. Talk about inefficient.
    Australia and New Zealand have established Access Federations which allow students and staff to use their own institutional credentials to log into web applications.
    Almost all universities and a lot of polytechs have joined these Access Federations.
    Adobe would be better off enabling federated login to prove that staff and students are who they say they are rather than use the current antique approach to validating memberships of insitutions.
    Go see www.aaf.edu.au or tuakiri.ac.nz

    Thanks for the suggestion Timu. I will pass it on.

    Why does my Adobe Reader (10.1.3) freeze-up when I down load statements from some websites?
    When I down load statements from some websites, the pdf freezes and I get a message that the website is not responding and that windows is checking for a solution for this problem. I have uninstalled and reinstalled many times. I really like the Adobe Reader, but I need answers on why this is happening and how to fix it. AN AUTOMATIC UPDATE FROM 08/23/11 DOESN’T CUT IT!!

  • Does Adobe Reader for iPad save annotations by/in itself (once uploaded from e.g. dropbox)

    Does Adobe Reader for iPad save annotations by/in itself (once uploaded from dropbox I can still see them after closing the app or switching documents)? I lost some valuable annotations while switching documents and apps over time. How do I save them? Only by sending it to dropbox for instance?

    It saves the file when:
    1) The app goes to background
    2) A share action (open in, email, print) occurs
    3) A form submit occurs
    4) You close the document by going to "Home" or "Documents", or open another document
    One issue that people encounter is that they open the file in a reader that does not support annotations (like the dropbox PDF view or the iOS Mail app). It doesn't sound like this is the case for you though, since you do see the annotations.
    There is a known issue, where on a small number of documents with specific properties, we fail to save changes. This is an issue that we have fixed and will be in our next release. The release is currently pending approval by Apple. It's possible that you encountered this issue, and if so, I apologize.
