Hi,everytime I try to install CS5 or CS5.5 on the new OS X Sierra System it says, I should eject the image. Is it possible to install it with the Terminal?

I could really use some help from some kind soul out there. I have been racking my brain trying to learn this and scouring the forums/internet and have come up empty handed. I have been trying to figure this out for the last 3 months on my own with no success. Could someone please help me?I have two folders: folder "A" and folder "B".On any given day they will both have multiple PDFs in them. The number of PDFs will vary from day to day and week to week, but the number of PDFs in both folders will always match on the same day.i.e. Monday folder "A" could have 15 PDFs and thus folder "B" would have 15 PDFs. Tuesday it could be 3 PDFs in each folder. Friday it could be 1,000 PDFs in each folder. Regardless of the day, there will always be the same number of PDFs in each folder.I am currently running/using Adobe Pro 8 (not my decision, out of my control/authority) and due to the limited functionality I have to find an alternative/creative way to achieve an end result via a script.

Hi,Using Acrobat Professional DC, wondered if it is possible to create a script to get the name of an object for example as an event target (for example, on entering a page?).If I can get an object's name, then possibly I could add a script to change its fill color or some other property?Am learning scripting in Acrobat, have been reading the scripting API, correct syntax, and would appreciate any help to get an object's name based on an event.Thank you in advance.Stephen

HelloI am trying to write a simple script that will populate a text field based on another drop down field's selection. I'm getting an error but I have copied the code from somewhere and tried to make it my own with little luck. Please advise? I am adding this as a calculation script.var selectedContact person = this.getField("Contact person").value;if (selectedContact person=="Person A") event.value = "+ 44 123 456 7890";else if (selectedContact person=="Person B") event.value = "+ 44 123 456 7890";else event.value = "";I'd like to repeat the code on a "Contact Email" field where based on the selection in "Contact person" the email address is prefilled. Any help is much appreciated.

Hello All,I am in the process of developing a pdf form that will contain approximately 30 combo-boxes of employees names. I am looking to have all 30 combo-boxes reference one listing for their values as the list may be frequently updated and I do not want to have to update each of the 30 combo boxes every time a change needs to me made to the employee listing. I am looking for some input on how I can accomplish this easily. My thought was javascript or something may work. Thanks in advance for your help!

My code is fairly standard, if people need to see more I can provide but essentially I am just trying to access a field's ButtonLayout property. I know the field I am accessing is a button, b/c I Added it previously in the code and I can review it once the file saves. The last line below is the one that doesn't work. I get the error "Object doesn't support this property or method". I am using MS Access 2016 with the Adobe Acrobat 10.0 Type Library. In contrast I can access the Value, and the BorderStyle properties and set them just fine. The lines in green work, the line in red does not work. Why? I've tried not using capitals and camel case. No difference....Set pdDoc = avDoc.GetPDDoc()Set jso = pdDoc.GetJSObjectjso.getField("buttonImage1")..BorderStyle = "beveled"jso.getField("buttonImage1").buttonImportIcon CStr(photoSet!Photo)jso.getField("caption1").Value = CStr(photoSet!Caption)jso.getField("buttonImage1").ButtonLayout = "1"...

I added a third party plugin button from the Quick Tool and displayed it on the toolbar. However, if you hide the tool panel window, the tool button of the third party plugin will be hidden the next time Acrobat starts.Please let me know if anyone knows how to not hide.

When I get a PDF that needs to be filled out, but has no forum fill areas, I just use the Typewriter function and type on the line I want filles out. Then I ise my computer Pen to sign on the screen. Then I email the form to who needs it. Unfortunately anything i use with the Typewriter functun and I email mail out the PDF there is no typing on the PDF. My signature is there but what ever I did with the Typewriter function is missing. Can someone tell me why?Thanks,Steve

Okay, hopefully the last question of the day...I've simplified my problem down to the following: I have two radio buttons that, when clicked, populate a combobox with a set of options. The first set consists of the numbers 1-5, and the second is simply the string "N/A". Then down below, a numeric Cost field will check to see if the contents of the Quantity field is not "N/A", and if it's not, it will turn the quantity string into an integer and multiply it by 10. Otherwise, if it is "N/A", it will return 0.The problem is that, as soon as you click on either radio button, Acrobat gives the error "The value entered does not match the format of the field [ Cost ]". So it sounds like Cost is expecting an integer and receiving a string, but I'm not sure why it would be getting a string. Other than that, it works as expected.

How can i decline acrobat the use of my device camera?

I have tried to upload Adobe Pro XI 2x now and it keeps setting the language as Danish even though I clicked English (north americcan).  How can I change the language?  I can't read Danish!

In a mouseUp action for a radio button, I want to include some Javascript to disable another form field (a combobox). This is what I've tried, and it isn't working:this.getField("fieldName").disabled=true;

I'm new to Javascript in PDF forms. I'm trying to put a combobox (named "Additional Users") on a PDF form that populates with values from an array. According to this help page, it looks like you can use a 2D array to store the keys and values for the combobox.What I've done will populate the combobox, but once you select an option and click away from it, the value resets to the first option, which in this case is 0. In fact, even the example code from the help page does the same thing when I try it out in my form. What am I doing wrong?     var dropdown = this.getField("Additional Users");     dropdown.setItems([ ["0", 0], ["5", 5], ["10", 10], ["15", 15] ]);

Help! I have used the Basic example in the SDK as a basis to create my plug-in, it works fine on my machine so I built it to put on another machine, and discovered because it was in debug mode, it was using the debug version of the C++ libraries which aren't distributable, however when I change it to a release build then it just doesn't appear as an add-in (It is signed and reader enabled).I don't know what I am missing \ what I should be doing in get this to work, it has been ages since I have done anything in C++ so the many many options in the project properties are lost in time.  I have spent nearly 4 days this and not made any progress.  Can you help? Or at least point me some areas to check? People to ask.Thanks in advance.Danny Banks

I am looking for JavaScript that executes Tools-Pages-Insert from File in Adobe Acrobat.  I have a coversheet.  I would like to add a button to it that allows the user to insert other pages from another PDF.  I have found the JavaScript that adds another PDF as an attachment, but that doesn't accomplish my goal.  I am using Acrobat Pro XI.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
