cant type on adobe acrobat.

[vuther]

so i'm filling out an eagle project application and i have everything done in the first part except where i have to type in the costs of the materials of the project. for some reason  i cannot type into this field and it makes a kind of error sound when i try to. (not the windows error sound but more like the cannot type here sound)  iv'e been able to type there in the past but now i cannot and i cannot launch as administrator either. only thing i can think of is to start fresh with a new document and type the information from the old document in but i do not want to do that because obviously it would take a long time. help!

Man I remember that packet. It was the hardest part of getting eagle. Do you need it digital? I think I hand wrote most of mine. Alternatively, try editing it in chrome instead of adobe.

well its already downloaded on my computer how can i view it via chrome?

only options i have when i right click are to open with adobe reader,  Photoshop, reader, and set default program.

Is there an "other" button?

[vuther]

no there is no other option. i was able to launch via internet explorer (no option for chrome) by pressing set default program then selecting the proper program. (i unchecked the box so it wouldn't always do this.) but still am not able to type in this box.

You do have google chrome installed right? if so then in the "choose default program" box there should be an option to browse for other programs. If you click that you can go to the folder that chrome is installed in and select chrome directly.

 i had to navigate to the proper folder then select the application but i was able to launch via chrome. however i forgot that i have had problems opening this before with chrome. same as before when i tried it now it just pops up with a white screen with the following written on it.
