I have an apple computer and I saved the electronic forms and now I went to go back to finish them up and now I can't fill them in...it says they can not be modified. I have tried everything and no luck. I hate to have to re do them all. Has anyone had this problem or if so, been to resolve it. Perhaps I am doing something wrong...thx

I had the same issue...also on a Mac...what I did was print them off so I could re-enter the info later...a bit of a hassle, but it worked well for me...the only forms that I was able to save without issue were 1344 and 0008.

Same problem. But it's not just Mac related, samething on XP, Abode does it on purpose. They want you to buy Adobe Reader Pro. With the pro version you can edit and reedit as many times as you want. With the free version it only allows you 1 edit. I bought it just for that function.

try using mac's default application "Preview" instead of "adobe" to open and edit the files.
