Find password protected Documents
I have many, many PDF files; password protected and others not. Are there documents protected anyway I can get just the password? Jerry.
Which version of Acrobat you have? It may be that it was not an option in your version. Preflight is one of those areas that seem to have a lot of additions with each new version, at least for scripts that are already available.
I just went through the process in AA9 and this is the kind of confusion. Once you have created the new profile (but still in the editing window), expand the list in the left window:
This is perhaps where you can't find the Document. Note that the "PDF document is encrypted" is now in the right window. Hope that helps. It might be a little different in new versions of Acrobat, but the same concept should apply.

Help! Need to enter a password protected document
My friend's husband died suddenly. We try to find all documents with respect to a will or anything. We
found a document on his computer that is named forms_legal, and it is password protected. We have no idea of what is the password, and
It seems to break, you will pay $$ for software, which we do not know yet will work. !!! I tried about 1/2 dozen without software and came to nothing. Can anyone else? Adobe will help us if we provide a death certificate?
Check out pdfpirate.net and will remove the password. The site seems dangerous, but I have run that several PDFs through it and immediately checked for malicious bugs and have been clean.

Adobe DC / problem with password protected documents
I downloaded Adobe DC on my Tablet for school work. When I try to open my book it is password protected and I can't enter my login details... Please help?
Hello
Do you have a user name and password field or just a password field to enter your login information? Is your PDF file, "ProtectedPDF" by Vitrium? Currently, Adobe Acrobat DC on mobile devices does not support third-party pdf files protected by DRM. You will need to open the same on the desktop.
Thank you.

Signature &; protection Documents
I have two questions related to the XI:
1. I can sign documents with a certificate, I can password protect documents to avoid being content copied, however I don't see how to do both?
2. is there sort of to the batch to sign several documents?
Hi spastikmonkii,
Using the option of signature Place under fill & sign, you can create the signature with the certificate, which you can apply to the documents. To refer to this article:- https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/certificate-based-signatures.html
To secure PDF files with password, please refer to this article:- https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/securing-pdfs-passwords.html
Would like to inform you that it is not possible to multiple PDF documents in Acrobat XI batch, you must manually sign the documents one after one.
Kind regards

I create documents using MS Word and Publisher, then save them as PDF files. I now want to password protect documents to prevent having read them by those who did not have the file. What version of the software ADOBE should I buy to get there? Standard or professional?
I see the Adobe site is an add-on for MS Word ' built in ' but it does not say what version of ADOBE, it is supplied with.
What I'm buying?
Thank you

But want to be able to say to the 'management' I have a cost-effective solution, that protect a casual surfer documents rather than the pirate.
In this case, Acrobat will probably be fine. Once again, if they want, they can get it.

However, there is another product that I should consider, which could allow to raise the protection?
There are really not many options short of a digital rights management solution. What it sounds like, it is more that likely will not be good investment on your end.

How can I password protect my Reader 11 document?
I have recently been upgraded to Player 11 and I can not find where I can password protect a document as I could in previous versions.Adobe Reader has never been able to set a password. So I guess that until you had Acrobat Standard or Acrobat Pro, allowing you to set a password.

That's what I had to do what I did:
http://www.AddictiveTips.com/Windows-Tips/how-to-lock-and-password-protect-folder-in-Vista/
Clearly, I clicked too much / the wrong thing, because these very important issues (for my work) are now completely inaccessible for me. This is not correct. I need them to work. Can someone help me please? (I feel like such a fool!)
I tried restoring the system (twice) and nothing has changed. I have google and google to try to find a way to fix this, but so far have gotten nowhere! I'm a sort of panic... hoping someone can help me!
So what (s) you refuse permissions on this folder? If deny you permissions to everyone, then of course your own username has been included in this group. Out of this is to start the computer with a Linux Live CD or USB key and the copy of the data in the files to external media such as a disk external hard USB or USB key. Linux will not honor Windows permissions. Then delete the files while in Linux. If all goes well, they are not system folders but are only folders you have created yourself. Then start in Windows, create new folders, copy your data to them. If you explain what and where are the files and what restrictions you want to give, we can help you to do this properly.

I tried to insert a password to protect a document that I send. He told me to add a service that I paid for. I'm still not able to protect document and install a password. I went to tools-Protect but he always tells me that I have to pay for this service after I did. How can I add a password to open my document?
Hi cj47163119,
You need Acrobat application to secure your document with password. It seems that you use Acrobat Reader.
Acrobat Reader is a free service and do not have this option.
If you have Acrobat subscription, you can download it here: Download Adobe Acrobat products. Standard, Pro | DC, XI, X
For more help, see this KB doc: Security with passwords, Adobe Acrobat PDF files
