Acrobat X prints PDF's - but only to desktop unable to Print direct to Folder - Error No Permission

Just installed Acrobat X and since installation I am able to print PDFs however am only able to print to my desktop and am unable to print directly into existing or even newly created folders.
System advises there is no permission to allow the print in the folder and to see the system administrator.  As I am the only user,thus administrator, am having a hard time rectifying the situation.
Also noticed that the print window when it first appears is minimized and you need need to use a few clicks to open through "More.... "  to get the computer or destop settings.   Is there a way to have this print window default totally open to allow immediate access to all options.
Is becoming a bit tedious to go through this process to print PDF and then move from the desktop into the folders, which seems to be no problem at all.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

  • Exporting pdf "acrobat distiller printer description not found" ERROR!

    I just upgraded my g4 to tiger and I am running quark 5 on it. I can no longer export pdfs. I get an error saying "acrobat distiller printer description not found." I am stumped and I NEED to get this working!!
    Anybody who knows how to fix this please let me know!
    Thanks

    You may need to re-install Adobe Acrobat Pro, assuming you need the functionality of Acrobat to create PDFs. To create simple PDF's there is a PDF menu on every print dialog box that does not require the Distiller printer description file.

  • HT201514 Trying to back up Time Machine to My Passport Air external hard drive, which is supposed to be compatible with my iMac and Mountain Lion, but get the message: Unable to complete backup.  An error occurred while creating the backup folder.  Help!

    Hello, I've just bought a Mac compatible Passport Air external hard drive, which is supposed to be compatible with the OS I am using (Mountain Lion) but I keep getting an error message saying Unable to complete backup.  An error occurred while creting the backup folder.  I've tried all the help suggestions, but nothing with this actual message comes up - it appears to be partititioned correctly etc, so don't know what I'm doing wrong - any help would be greatly appreciated thank you.

    Were you not plugged in via USB to begin with?
    I would recommend performing some resets just to be on the safe side. Unplug the external HD, and try these steps:

  • I am trying DWF files to a PDF format but only half of my drawing is converting.  Can anyone help?  Is it a setting?  The original file is an autocad file.

    How do you convert AutoCAD DWF files to a PDF format.  These are blue prints and I was told by Adobe to use the Acrobat DC program so that's what I did but now I am only getting half of a drawing on a page.  Is this as simple as a setting?

    Hi subscription question,
    I've checked your account; it looks like you tried to place two separate orders this morning, but it doesn't appear that either went through. However, it does sound as though you've been able to convert a file successfully. What happens when you log in to your account at https://cloud.acrobat.com/files? Do you see your converted file there? All converted files are automatically stored in your online account, even when you convert from within Reader.
    Best,

  • HT3924 Target display mode connects but only displays desktop background, no files or command lines

    I have connected my early 2014 MacBook to a late 2012 imac and connected them via Thunderbolt cable.  Pressing Command F2 causes the screen on teh iMac to change to teh MacBook background screen, but does not display any desktop files or command lines.  Any ideas how to fix this?

    Hi tdmone,

    The table below shows iMac computers that support TDM, the required cables, and the port of the computer to which you are connecting the iMac.

    Are you connecting via the Thunderbolt ports on both computers?
    How do I enable TDM?
    Make sure both computers are turned on and awake.  
    Connect a male-to-male Mini DisplayPort or ThunderBolt cable to each computer. 
    Press Command-F2 on the keyboard of the iMac being used as a display to enable TDM. 
    Note: In Keyboard System Preferences, if the checkbox is enabled for "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard functions keys," the key combination changes to Command-Fn-F2.
    Can I use a third-party keyboard or older Apple keyboard to enable TDM?
    Some older Apple keyboards and keyboards not made by Apple may not allow Command-F2 to toggle display modes. You should use an aluminum wired or wireless Apple keyboard to toggle TDM on and off.
    I hope this information helps ....

  • Purchased ringtone but only in playlist unable to attach to a contact

    How do I move the ringtone from playlist to sounds so it can be used on a contact

    I don't understand ... a ringtone cannot be in a playlist!
    If you purchased a ringtone, it is a ringtone, and cannot appear in a playlist.  If it's in a playlist, then it is a song, and not a ringtone.

  • TS1424 I am trying to download an app but i am getting unable to connect to itune store error message.

    I know alot of people got this error message while trying to download app. Any solution yet?

    Most often a connection error.  Since you are (I assume) seeing this on your iPad, the solution that often solves this is to reboot your iPad.  Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.  Once back up, try again and see if there is still an issue.

  • For PDF documents the "archive as" button do not appear but only the "active" button. Please help me?

    Hi all,
    My "achive as" button do not appear when im trying to save a scanned PDF document but only the "achive" button. Do anyone know why?
    I have tried seraching the internet for answer but without any result.
    A solution to the prblem is to press doublicate and then "archive" then i get the option to save in a specific loaction (notice that even after doublicating i don't get the option to archvie as). This is a quick fix but would like to know how to fix the problem probably.
    Here is some background
    -The problem also appears on exsisting pdf document and documents from other users.
    - i open it in apple standard preview program
    - The problem appaered 6 months ago after and general apple software upgrade.
    - I don't have any "download" folder in my finder menu ( I don't know if this is a relevant information but could have somthing to do with the settings i.e. as administor even though it is my own mac).
    Please help me before i will go completly CRAZY, it is super frustrating.
    Happy weekend to all.

  • What do I do when he only thing on my screen is a flashing folder with a question mark.

    I had a few browsers open on my computer. I accessed my calendar and it froze. The mouse would still move, but I could not click on anything. Then the screen went grey with a flashing folder with a question mark. I turned the power off and turned it back only but only see the grey screen with the flashing folder. I tried resetting the PRAM but it still will not work.  Can this be fixed? Please help!!

    You may have a disk error - could be an unrepairable physical problem with the drive, or a repairable file structure problem.
    Hold down cmd-R (both keys together) as you start up the Mac, and keep them held down until you see the Apple menu. When it boots to the recovery partition, click Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk on the Macintosh HD. Let us know if you see errors there and whether or not DU can fix them.
    Good luck!

    My Acrobat 8 Pro is failing to print to a pdf from multiple software.  I get an error message that a repair fixes but only for a little while.  Pretty soon the trial version of 9 that I installed pops up telling me it has expired but it would take me to a way to buy a valid serial number and then 8 stops working again.  I’d be happy if the 8 I paid for worked right or I could get 9 for a small cost but I cannot afford $450 or $20/month.  I need a permanent solution that I should be already paid for with 8 pro.

    After multiple repair procedures with reboot in AA8 I was eventually able to restore the printing to pdf function from various software.  However I have again lost my Acrobat tab in Outlook 2007.  I need that back, but today an even bigger problem arose.  AA8 has stopped printing to fax.  It faxes a blank page.  The only fax printing option is “Microsoft Shared Fax Driver”.  My fax software is “Windows Fax and Scan” and it was working fine just a couple weeks ago.  My OS is Windows 7 Professional.
    I have tried doing the updates you referred to but I get error messages like these:
    “No qualifying products found to apply this update, or update has been already applied”
    or
    “The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing , or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program.  Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch.”

  • Adobe Acrobat Standard v 8 works, but print-to-PDF does not

    I've been trying to migrate my main computer usage from an XP desktop to a Windows 7 laptop. I've had Acrobat Standard v 8 on both computers for years but have rarely used the laptop. (I mostly used the laptop as a dumb terminal to reach through the internet to my desktop.) Now I'm determined to make the laptop into my daily WORKING computer.
    I see that Acrobat Standard works on the laptop (opens files, deletes pages, etc.) but I cannot print anything to PDF. When I try to print (from Notepad, Word, or anything) the "Adobe PDF" printer shows as my default printer. But nothing happens. It doesn't ask for a filename and the printer window (?) shows error on printing.
    I uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat Standard 8 in January 2013 when it had stopped working altogether (opening a PDF would flash open then close/crash) which was probably caused by "a friend" installing an unlicensed (or wrongly licensed) version of Microsoft Office 2010. I uninstalled all of that mush and put a new version of Office on (2013, licensed). I don't recall if the print-to-PDF has worked since; but I suspect not.
    Does anyone know how to fix it?
    I'm afraid to uninstall and reinstall the whole Acrobat again. Someone once told me that you can only re-activate your license so many times and then one day it won't reactivate. And since my version is so old and has been reinstalled after virus cleanups (reformatting system disks), I don't know if Tech Support will fix that sort of activation problem. That last thing I want to do is use new software, or have to go to a non-Adobe PDF editor when I already have software paid for. And yes, I have the original Acrobat Standard v 8 CDs.

    1. I don't care about the button in Word; just trying to get a PRINT-TO-PDF function going.
    2. The CD installed 8.0.0 even though I have 8.1.4 on my other computer (the XP desktop I'm trying to make obsolete). I will try to find upgrade downloads somewhere.
    3. I tried to use the original CD and do a "Repair" option (not remove nor install). It went through the motions and would come up with an error. So I googled and found the article titled "Error "The file AdobePDF.dll is needed" | CS3 | 64-bit Windows" (http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-file-adobepdf-dll-needed.html) and applied the directions for Windows 7 64-bit version (which my laptop is), but the fix didn't work.
    Still researching, and #2 above looks like the best next course of action.

  • When downloading a pdf, the print command show a document in the preview but only prints blank pages

    When downloading a pdf and using the print command, it shows  the correct document in the preview but only prints blank pages.  If I use the save command and try to open with Acrobat 11.0.07, it says it wasn't correctly decoded and can't open it.  If I do the same thing on my old Macbook (10.6.8) all works fine from the same website with the same document.  Any ideas?

  • Acrobat Pro XI Mac won't print a .pdf file, but Apple Preview will print correctly

    Hello,
    I have Acrobat Pro XI for Mac.  recently I've run into pdf files that will show the document on screen ok, show up on print preview screen ok, but when I send it to a printer I either get:
    1.  no printout... the document passes through the printer queue ok, but nothing comes out (no blank paper, nothing).  no data seems to even reach the printer/print server.  no error.  the print job basically vanishes into thin air like the job was never sent
    2.  prints out with all the characters of a text substituted with squares (again, no error. just prints squares instead of text)
    But when I print the same document using Apple's Preview program on the same machine, the file prints out fine.
    I experience this problem with two different Macs, with two different OS versions.  Again both machines will print the .pdf file fine using Apple Preview, but not with Acrobat Pro XI.
    I've searched for this problem, but no one seems to have this problem. I've tried just printing one page, etc., and no difference (won't print, or print wrong using Acrobat, but prints fine using Preview)
    the files are typically sent via e-mail from a vendor, or a web downloaded form (invoice, forms filled out.  some are secure, some are not).  and these are from multiple sources.
    Any ideas what might be the problem, and how to fix this?
    system:
    Mac Pro (early 2008) and MacBook Pro (mid-2011)
    MacOS 10.8.4 and 10.6.8 (multiple computers have this same problem)
    Acrobat Pro XI, 11.0.04
    printer: HP LaserJet 5MP (yes.. old.. but it works) via HP JetDirect + print server on  LAN

    I just found this solution on another board, I tried it  (I removed the same file listed below) and it worked for me.... 
    Safari won’t save or print PDFs: how to fix
    :: Tuesday, January 29th, 2013 @ 5:29:46 am
    :: Tags: Computers
    If Safari won’t save or print PDFs (but views them without any problems), you probably have an Adobe PDF plug-in installed. In Safari, go to Help->Installed Plug-ins and do a search for “PDF.” If you have anything with “PDF” in it other than “WebKit built-in PDF,” that is probably the culprit.
    On my computer, the problem was “AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin”. To remove it, I quit Safari, did a Spotlight search (Command-Option space) for that file name, and then dragged it to the trash. When I restarted Safari, I could print and save PDFs again. You can also manually find the plugins by going to the system “Library”  folder (the one at the root of your hard disk, not in your user folder) and looking in the “Internet Plug-Ins” folder.
    I’m on OS X 10.8.2, running Safari 6.0.2 (8536.26.17).
