I'm applying outland for PR, Family Class

I'm having real trouble validating form eimm5669e (Schedule A Background/Declaration).

I'm using a Mac with Adobe reader 11 and have validated other forms and got the barcodes successfully.

The highlighted problem is a year in the personal history section. It's not got an issue with the overlaps or use of the ongoing checkbox. I know these aren't a problem because if I change the 'from' date from 2011 (highlighted red) to 2010 (which isn't true and creates more overlaps), the form will validate just fine. The dates all match up as they should and there are no gaps.

The error message says: 'Review the Personal History section, it seems like some information is missing. Enter the most recent information first. Don't leave any gaps in time'.

The section of dates goes like this (I have highlighted in red the year that gets highlighted on the form):

2011-10 > 2013 07 Employed
2011-07 > 2011 10 Studying
2008-09> 2011-07 Studying

I have tried downloading the form afresh and entering the information from the beginning again and it still gets stuck at the same point.
 
**I FIXED IT**

So I had an overlapping between the studying section listed in the third row that I listed and the row below. When I fixed that overlap, the form validated. I want to note the following:

1) I didn't have to change the box that was highlighted as a problem in order to fix the validation. So even if you're getting a highlight in one part of the history, the problem could be elsewhere.

2) I still have other overlaps in my history which the computer is fine with and I don't know why it's okay with some and not with others. Maybe because there was an overlap between activities in different countries? (I was an exchange student abroad so technically a student at 2 universities in 2 countries at once. I added an extra row to remove the overlap - 1 line for my first year in home country, 1 row for my study abroad year, 1 row for my final year in home country (obviously in reverse order).

Hello All - I am filling up the eimm5669e form. I completed the form and validated it successfully. I closed the form and opened it again and saw that the DOB fields of my parents did not contain values along with value of all the check boxes in section 4 and the form showed it is no longer validated. Not sure what the problem is. Can someone please help?
