Hi Catherine34853419ol7r,

Thank you for reaching out.

Please try clearing the cache and cookies for the browser. Or try sending documents via a new incognito window in Chrome browser. Also, check if it happens when you upload the particular PDF.  

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks,

Meenakshi

I am experiencing the same issue no solution as of yet?

Thanks

my IT has sent me something to review - will advise if it works, but I will not revisit until this weekend

The issue I'm seeing is when I add an "approver" instead of "signer".  Is there a way to cc someone without them having to sign? 

[Catherine34853419ol7r]

My IT did not understand why you would suggest icognito; cache and cookies cleared, did not work; have tried 20+ documents to date

I have done all of the above mentioned. Getting the same problem. I have just signed up for pro to send E-Signatures (never had a problem with the free couple a month). Now after signing up I can't send any?

I am having the smae problem as Catherine. However the problem is happening inside Adobe Acrobat Pro for Windows 10 itself (Ver. 2024.002.20687). 

I have restarted my computer and network twice and am getting the same error. I had switched accounts, and logged out of the old account before joinging the new one. little help?

Has anyone been able to find a fix for this? I am experiencing the same issue. Was working fine last Thursday, hasn't worked since. I open the doc, select request e-signatures, it allows me to place the fields, but when I hit review and send I get the Error 403.

The exactly same error. Have not been able to use esign for two weeks. Will be looking for different product soon.

I, too, got the same error, and the only way I was able to fix it was by going through the browser rather than using the app. I would prefer to use the app, but there is no solution yet, I see.

Our Adobe Cloud Storage was full.  I cleared some space, re-tried the e-sign process and it began working again...no more 403 error.

[Nina38386084kd2a]

Same issue, no solution - cloud storage entirely empty...

Try on an icognito window the following url: https://documents.adobesign.com/public/login Complete the setup from the account. Then relauch the app.

Hello, I found a workaround to make it work from the app. Following these steps the problem is solved.

if the error is the following:

go to the top right of the application and click on your profile picture > account management:

After logging in on the following screen click on the highlighted button "View all services and APPS":

Then on "Access your apps and services" on the following screen:

Then click on "Electronic Signature" (1) and then on "Request electronic signatures" (2):

The following screen will appear, press "Cancel":

Now go back to the application on your PC and everything works fine:

Thank you for workaround. This finally fixed it for me!!

[satisfied_Whisper8397]

Thank you for this workaround - it worked for me as well!

The first time I got this error, IT resorted to canceling my license and creating a new one. There was a whole back and forth before getting to that point. When this error popped up again, I was not looking forward to having to play that game again.

Thanks.. this worked for me as well..

[gerard_1051]

I can't believe that worked but it did -- thank you!!!
