Acrobat 9 Pro shutting down after install

I just purchased Acrobat 9 Pro upgrade. The install goes smoothly. However, when I go to open up the program, it opens and then shuts down. I have tried reinstalling after unstalling and still have the same problems. Does anyone have any suggestions? I need to get to open several pdfs and I can't.
Thank you!

Do a search for others with this problem. It is being reported a lot right now and seems to be related to a MS issue. Of course, Microsoft says the vendors need to ensure the compatibility. Bill

    After having shut down after installing updates, when I restarted and tried to open a word doc, it started opening ALL the word docs and the only way I could stop it was by"force quit"  . This is REALLY annoying!!

    May be it is the Resume feature.

    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.

  • MacBook Pro shuts down after periods of inactivity

    I had a 6-year old MacBook Pro.  Besides just being a bit old and tired it would attempt to shut down after periods of inactivity.  I tried setting it to never sleep.  I tried the whole reset thing where you take the battery out and hold the power button for 5 seconds.  I bought new memory for it.  Eventually I used it as an excuse to buy a new machine.
    Of course I copied my image over to the new MacBook.  Now I know its not a hardware issue because it still happens!
    I also have other quirky issues (probably not related, but who knows). 
    I just cannot get my remote (or any apple remote to work).
    I have an empty folder that I can't delete–it crashes the system.
    Aperature hangs up all the time
    VMware hangs up all the time
    Firefox and Chrome both hang up
    Sometimes I have to force quit Mail
    Is this a good time to do a clean install?

    Resetting the SMC doesn't seem to have done anything. The progress bar hasn't reached the end to shut down yet, but so far, it's displaying the same behavior.

  • Mac Pro shuts down after setting up RAID (HELP!)

    So, I recently purchased a rev 1 Mac Pro and decided to setup a RAID using 4 750gb WD drives. I am not using a RAID card, simply using Disk Utility.
    I first combined drives in bays 1 and 2 (striped) and then combined drives in bays 3 and 4 (striped) to give me essentially two 1.5tb drives.
    I then created a mirrored RAID using the two striped raids so that I would have the speed of a striped RAID with the safety of a mirrored RAID.
    Once I did this, it showed up as one hard disk on my desktop (I was booting with an external). I then cloned my external drive to the new RAID disk on the desktop, and did so successfully.
    However, now when I try to boot from the RAID, it chimes, the Apple appears, and then the Mac Pro shuts down. I tried holding down option and all 4 drives appear. I tried booting from a different drive, and the same thing happens. I should also note that the firmware bar flashes on the screen before shutting down (looks like a really long pill).
    Any ideas? Does it sound like I did something wrong? I hate to start from scratch, as it takes all night to clone my external drive to the Mac Pro. Thanks for any help.

    Hello, Hatter. Thanks so much for the information. I went with the information from the Macworld article (I believe) "RAIDing the Mac Pro" and according to it this setup was supposedly a great idea. But, yes, it's not working out so perhaps not in this case.
    So, I have four brand new 750gb Caviar Black drives installed. If I understand you correctly, I should stripe 3 disks together, then use a 4th as backup (using Time Machine?). So, if I use the drives I have, I'll have a striped configuration that gives me 2.25TB of space, and a 750gb hard drive for backup. That technically would work for now, as I have about 660gb of data on the system (although in the future I'd need to swap out that 4th drive for a 2TB.
    So, if that is what you're suggesting, would you mind telling me exactly how I do that? I think I understand, but just want to make sure as this is my first Mac Pro and first time setting up a RAID. Thank you so much for your response.
    p.s.: I'm guessing I'll need to do a fresh start and clone my external drive all over again, correct?

  • My Macbook Pro won't shut down after installing Lion.  Anyone have a suggestion to fix this?

    Just installed Lion, and it won't shutdown!
    The only way it'll shut down is if it drains the battery.
    Help!
    J

    Lots of other people are complaining about their Macs taking long times to shutdown. Some solved it by reinstalling Lion from scratch (without using a Time Machine backup and simply copying all their files on to the new install).
    Others discovered old software that is no longer compatible with Lion (I found Mac The Ripper in mine, plus many others on day 1). I uninstalled some apps using App Cleaner (google it, it's free and it's awesome).
    I was having a hard time shutting down my macbook pro, now it's back to normal.
    Try finding applications that are not compatible with Lion. Their icons should be greyed out and with a diagonal line crossing it. Make sure you erase these applications and library related files, which is very simple if you use App Cleaner. And make sure you look into sub-folders inside the Applications folder, as I missed a couple because they were not immediately visible.
    Hope it helps. If it does, let us know.

  • Final Cut Pro 7 shuts down after installing OSX 10.8

    Recently upgraded to OSX 10.8. Initially Final Cut Pro 7 was working but then suddenly crashed. All it does is runs through scripts like its opening but then shuts down.
    I thought it was a problem with disc space so I cleared my hard drive. This did not help.
    I tried to troubleshoot but could not find the things the troubleshooter mentioned: ~/Library/Preferences; com.apple.finalcutpro.plist; Final Cut Pro User Data; /Library/Receipts; FinalCutPro.pkg.
    Tried uninstall/reinstall but I still have same problem. Any ideas/suggestions? Thanks!

    Thanks... I just figured out how to do the repair disk, but unfortunately not solve my problem. So my next step is doing a clean install of my OS. I'm currently using Time Machine to backup my computer just in case I run into any issues. So I've never done this before and I'm not very computer savvy AT ALL. lol
    So I want to make sure I understand things correctly before actually doing it. Essentially I will go to Disk Utility and erase the drive? I'm guessing then restart the computer? Will I be able to open up the App store to get my OSX10.8 reinstalled?
    Thanks

  • Macbook pro shutting down after I installed new RAM

    I recently installed 8 GB of new RAM (purchased from Best buy). and a few times since I did that (yesterday morning),  my laptop has shut down and a grey screen has popped up with something saying  "Your computer has shut down because of a problem, please wait a few minutes for it to restart"  Or something like that.
    I've installed RAM before and this was super easy and quick.  The machine says both RAM sticks are "OK" when I go to the system report.   Yet I cant help but think thats the problem.    
    Does anyone know what that could be?   The ONLY thing I am a tad unsure of, is the little "pop" or "click" the sticks should make when you put them in.  I don't remember hearing that.
    Any ideas?  I really don't want to have to go back to my standard 4 gigs or RAM.
    system specs.
    2.8 C2D Mid 2009 Macbook Pro, 

    Either your RAM is no good, of poor quality, the wrong specs or it's not installed correctly or it got subjected to static electricity when you put it in.
    Best Buy isn't as Mac centric, thus the quality of RAM that Mac's require may not be there.
    You should have purchased from Crucial.com or Other World Computing or similar that tests the RAM to make sure it works the first time you put it in, as it costs everyone money to ship bad RAM back and forth.
    I put in 16GB a couple of days ago, took five minutes and it works perfectly.
    Nothing like top tier RAM for a top of the line machine, especially with all those tiny, easy to lose screws Apple uses.

  • The first generation mac pro shuts down after start up suddenly

    I have had mac pro since 2006 and have used it so many times without any problems starting up/booting successfully. Recently it was not booting well and i done pram clearance and worked for a while. Once after going into the desktop the screen just froze and i could hear a repeatitive clicking sound from the computer. I was able to shut down and did not use the computer for some time. i have tried to switch it on today and it goes through the normal dong sound and apple logo appears plus a grey bar underneath which fills to a bit and then there is a change in sound in the computer as if something coming to off and then there is the same repeated sound of faint clicking and the computer shuts down. can please anyone help me how to sort the problem out?

    how do i carry this operation out?
    Your machine info has changed from 10.6 to 10.3. No MBP ever shipped with 10.3, so I'm including directions for 10.6:
    Repair Disk: Boot from install disc (insert disc>restart>immediately hold down c key and keep holding it until you see “Preparing Installation”)>at first screen select the language and click Continue> click on the Utilities Menu in the menu bar>open Disk Utility>select your HD in the panel on the left side>click Repair Disk at bottom of main window. Run this at least twice, and keep running it until it says “appears ok” twice in a row. If that doesn’t happen, you may need a stronger utility such as DiskWarrior or if the directory is damaged beyond repair, you may need to reinstall the OS, or you may have a damaged HD (repair utilities can only repair the directory structure, not the HD itself). When this is finished, quit Disk Utility, quit the installer, and restart. Once booted normally, go to Applications>Utilities>Disk Utility and run Repair Permissions.
    how do i open up the disk drive?
    Not sure what you mean by this.

  • IMac keep shutting down after installing OSX lion

    Hi,
    I have a mid 2010 27 inch i5 machine and after I had installed OSX Lion last month the machine randomly shut itself down while I'm using it.  At first I thought it was because of a software problem with Final Cut Pro X, since I installed that at the same time and it would shut down while I was using it.  Then it start to shut down while I'm just browsing the net.  Restarting is not a problem but a pain to loose unsafe data when it crashes.
    Does anybody else have this problem?  Again the machine was working fine before OSX Lion so I don't think it's a hardware issue.  On average it would shutdown once or twice per usage day sometime a few minutes after turning on the machine, still cool, and sometime after a while, not excessively hot.
    Appreciate any help and thank you in advance!

  • Adobe CS6 Apps Shuts Down After Installing Creative Cloud.

    I can't start my Photoshop, Illustrator or InDesign CS6 anymore, it just shuts down as soon as it's done loading, without any errors. Only Bridge CS6 will start.
    I tried launching with Ctrl+Alt and Ctrl+Alt+Shift but it did not work.
    Then I tried uninstalling it (With all the preferences as well), and install it again, that did nothing - still the same issue.
    I updated windows and my gfx drivers (GeForece 332.21 - NVS4200M) after the issue started.
    I tried both the 32bit and the 64bit version.
    I have manually removed the preferences file.
    I have disabled the firewall and my AV.
    I have logged out and back in of the Creative Suite Utility.
    My hosts file is not blocking any sites.
    I am running Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit.
    I tried to open a issue on superuser but that did not help, nobody has awnsered it yet.

    Nicoar do you receive any specific error messages?  I would recommend starting with the steps listed in Error "Failed to Install" Creative Cloud Desktop application - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/failed-install-creative-cloud-desktop.html.

  • 8.1 can't shut down after installing itunes

    I recently reformatted and did a clean install of window's 8.1
    I have done all updates, both windows and drivers and the machine is very smooth and stable.
    After installing iTunes the computer will no longer shut down, it displays the logging off / shutting down screen but then just reboots.
    I have attempted numerous resolutions to no avail, i.e. disabled NIC as bootable device, disabled the hybrid boot feature & flashed and tweaked some BIOS settings.
    The computer will not even shut down when I give the command "shutdown /s /t 0"
    I only had Windows Office and iTunes installed on the computer and suspecting that iTunes may be the culprit, I uninstalled it and now the computer shuts down without any issue.
    I have since read several threads about iTunes and shutdown/restart issues with 64 bit versions of Windows although I have not found anyone else with my exact issue.
    Is anyone aware of a resolution for this?
    For now I will need to install iTunes so I can sync my phone and then uninstall so I can shut down!

    Fingers crossed there will be an update for this, I was lucky that my install so was new that there weren't very many things that could have caused it because I don't think it would have ever occurred to me that iTunes was the issue.
    I literally tried every other possibility before waking up in the middle of the night and realizing that the problem started right after I installed iTunes.
    I have had issues with Apple software in the past where I attempt to disable it from launching automatically when I boot the computer and it will simply create another entry for itself in the startup list.
    If I disable that one it makes another, and another and another.... It's like the freaking Apple hydra.
    The want me to know how much I need them! lol
