    The blue box looks like it might be a comment. If that is the case, choose Comments to get the commenting tools. You should then be able to select and delete the box.

    Hi All,

     

    Thank you for your patience so far.

     

    The issue has been resolved. Please reboot the machine and then relaunch Acrobat.

    Then wait for some time and try again to fill the forms. 

     

    Let us know how it goes.

     

    Thanks,

    Meenakshi

    To resolve the issue with the blue box hindering typing in GB WhatsApp Pro, try adjusting the app settings. Look for options related to input or chat settings. You may need to disable or modify a feature causing this interference. If the problem persists, consider reinstalling the app or checking for updates to ensure compatibility with your device's operating system.https://goldwhatsappapk.com/

    Has anyone figured out a real solution to this?  This is absolutely HORRIBLE and makes just editing or copy/pasting from a pdf a nightmare.

        I hope this shows up... I have lost so much work time trying to fix this problem because i used acrobate for almost everything in my line of work.  I logged in online and went to my settings and i unchecked "DISABLE FORM FIELD DETECTION" - then opened my acorbat app on my computer and the horrendous blue boxes are not there and I am able to fill my forms in finally. I'm afraid this won't last because of all the drama this recent update created and I feel like I'll junx myself. But, it's working now!

          I was able to revert back to the old interface and it fixed the problem but it's in the old layout.  I don't care.  I just needed it to WORK.  Here's a link to a video that explains how to revert back to the old version.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvJtKiMVz8M

            Thanks Kirk B  - I'm with you, dont care if it looks like the older layout as long as it works.  Come on Adobe, we pay for this program and there is obviously something happening - its the general public that are solving your problems.  I haven't seen Adobe offering any advise how to fix !?!

              It's frustrating. It's so obvious that there's a problem with their last update.  Many of us rely on these products to earn a living.

                  Shoot, that wss the only thing that worked for me. I uninstalled just the acrobat and then went to adobe cloud and had to wait forever for it to redownload.

                    I am having the same issue and I was not having this issue yesterday. Very frustrating and setting my productivity back.
