Copy link to clipboard

I'm a relatively new user.
I have document pages that have multiple links that need to point to the same document elswhere in a different folder.
Is there a way to choose all these links in one page, change their properties (assign the same Page x of x) all at once or am I stuck with editing each link property one by one?
TIA - Paul O.

I found a way how to select all the identical links and change their properties (....go to a page in another document) without having to change each link one at a time.
1. Open Tools menu and choose Link.
2. Hold Ctrl + left click on the links I want to edit.
3. Place cursor over one of the chosen links in step 2.
4. Right click will open up a menu window.
5. Left click on Properties - the Link Properties window will open.
6. Make desired changes.
7. Click OK (as required).
I hope this will help others.
FWIW, I tried using the method below which will not work; only the hovered link chosen in Step 3 will change after completing Step 6:
1. Open Tools menu and choose Link.
2. Hold Ctrl + left click on the links I want to edit.
3. Place cursor over one of the chosen links in step 2.
4. Double-Left click - the Link Properties window will open.
5. Make desired changes.
6. Click OK (as required).
Why it works one way and not the other is puzzling.

In Acrobat you can't edit all the links at the same time, unfortunately. I would recommend editing one link, deleting the rest, and then copy and paste it in the places, instead of editing all of them.
