2. Select Digital IDs > Digital ID Files in the left-hand tree
3. Highlight a digital ID file in the right-hand panel.
4. Do one of the following:
Choose Detach File. The file is removed from the list but still remains on your file system.

Choose Attach File. Browse to the file, enter the file password, and choose OK.

2.3.4 Changing an ID File's Password

Passwords and password time-outs are unique to PKCS#12 IDs. Since a file can contain multiple IDs,
passwords and time-outs are configured at the file level rather than for individual IDs.
To change the password:
1. Choose Advanced (Acrobat) or Document (Reader) > Security Settings.
2. Highlight Digital ID Files in the left-hand tree
3. Select a file in the right-hand panel
4. Choose Change Password.
5. Enter the old password.
6. Enter a new password and confirm it.
7. Choose OK.
Detaching a file does not remove it from your system, and it may be reattached later.
Note: If the file is read only, then the Change Password and Password Timeout options are
disabled.
