Unable to Edit PDF Forms with Acrobat XI

Please let me know how I can edit a pdf form created years ago with Acrobat Pro XI.  When I open this particualar form, which by the way took hours to create, and try to 'Edit' I get a text box stating that I have to use LiveCycle Designer to edit the form.  I have never used LiveCycle Designer and this form was not created with LiveCycle Designer.  I have a valid license key/serial number for Acrobat Pro XI so this product has been purchased.  I realize the product is old and not supported, but why take away my ability to edit this form??  I do not want to purchase Live Cycle Designer so please tell me how I can get LCD so I can edit this form that, again took hours to create!  

 

Frustrated Customer,

Chuck White

Yes it was made with LiveCycle Designer. This isn’t a mistake. Designer was bundled with Acrobat X (not XI) and clicking create form would run Designer. Then Adobe gave it up, leaving this mess. Franky I’d look into HTML forms, PDF forms seem doomed.
