Edit a PDF created in LiveCycle Designer

New Here ,

I'm trying to edit a PDF that was created in LiveCycle Designer and I get a warning box that says:  "This form cannot be edited in Adobe Acrobat.  Please use Adobe LiveCycle Designer to edit this form."  I have the latest version of Acrobat Pro.  Is there something additional I need to install to edit this form?  Any help would be appreciated.

Procedure still works. I'm using Acrobat Pro DC.

I was trying to add the date to a W9 form and got this error. My workaround was to print the file as a pdf and then edit that pdf. I didn't expect it to work but it did, no issues (except that the form fields are no longer there - just the text I entered).

I just tried that and got:
"Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose File > Save."

what is Acrobat's deal? It won't let me do any of the workarounds.

Peeps! I have solved this: go to Organise pages>Extract> choose all pages, Extract all.  Open the Prepare Form menu and voila! all the fields will be there and ready to use AND you can create new fields. Just remember to save your new file.
