Why does 4.0.1 sometimes start acroread (no pdf) & leave running?

Sometimes FF 4.0.1. starts up Acroread32, despite the fact that no PDF documents are involved in the display.
On exit, I find that Acroread is still left running and has to be killed.
Why does it start up and
why does FF not clean up after use?
Thanks,
Les.

I've found the "problem", although I don't understand it.
If I export using Quicktime conversion, go to Options->Size and select "HD 1280x720 16:9", it does what I was explaining - trims and stretches the video.
If I select just "1280x720", it does not, and the video exported is identical to the video imported.
Don't understand why the "HD" options are different, but at least my problem is solved.

  • Why does the snmpcoll process always start up even if SNMP Statistics Collection is turned off?

    Why does the snmpcoll process always start up even if SNMP
    Statistics Collection is turned off?
    <P>
    The SNMP Statistics Collection field on the Server Status|SNMP
    Subagent Configuration form affects only the SNMP subagent, which is a separate entity from
    the collector process (snmpcoll). Currently, snmpcoll does not look
    at the SNMP configuration data when it starts up. It is started by
    the dispatcher and terminates when the dispatcher terminates. Many
    of the statistics are supposed to reflect cumulative values recorded since MTA
    initialization, such as the total number of messages sent and received.
    As a convenience, the collector process collects information in the
    background even while the SNMP subagent is turned off; this way,
    the values are available when the SNMP subagent is configured and
    turned on.

    Collections fall off on the Date of First Deliquency 7-7.5 years later; that is supposed to be reported as the first time you went late (1-30 days) on the OC (original creditor) in the chain of events leading up to it's being farmed out for collection as I underestand it. DOFD though sometimes doesn't get reported right, and by default it will be the date the collection is added to the bureaus. As an example I have an awkward collection (not sure how I got it looking at the payment history thought I'd cancelled that account but TWC billing apparently didn't think so) which I went late on in 2009, but didn't get farmed out till late 2010.  The DOFD is 6/09 looking at it, and it's expected to come off according to the bureaus 6/16 as a result. Different negatives have their own rules though.

  • Why does my itunes crash after start up with an "APPCRASH" error every time i open it?! I have been trying to fix this for weeks but all i can do it re-install it every other day which does nothing!

    Why does my itunes crash after start up with an "APPCRASH" error every time i open it?! I have been trying to fix this for weeks but all i can do it re-install it every other day which does nothing! I am desperate to get access to my itunes to get music on my phone and all of this just makes me want me to sell my iphone since there is no other way to add music to my phone. If things go get sorted soon you can say goodbye to my support.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • Why does the "Computer Name" sometimes change?

                    Not a big deal, just curious, why does the "computer name" sometimes change?
                     The name will be the same, but it will add a number....2,3,4...I always change it back so it doesn't have a numeric value next to it, but just wondering why it happens.
                                            Thanks.

    Can also occur after your computer is put to sleep and then wakes back up or after your computer is force quit and immediately restarted. Sometimes the router 'believes' the computer is still connected when it actually isn't. When that computer re-establishes a connection the router 'tells' the computer that a computer with that name already exists so it has to change its name. By default a computer running MacOS adds a number (or increments its number) when this happens.

  • Why does my Ipod Nano  sometimes lose volumn

    Why does my Ipod Nano sometimes lose volumn?

    If the Nano is not in a protective case while you are working out, there may be a good chance that sweat/moisture has found its way into the inside of the iPod causing its buttons and functions to short circuit.  Several users who used their Nano for workouts have run into the same exact issue.
    Some have been able to correct it by giving the iPod a few days to dry out and then clipping the Nano to another location on their body and/or using a protective case with the Nano.

    The utility has had less and less useful information .. it might be time to simply find a different utility.
    Fing network scanner. iphone and ipad.

    This is very popular.. I do not know of what works well on Mac OS because i have installed 5.6 utility which of course has far more info than the later toy version. Plus using an Asus router which has excellent listing of all the clients.
    Sometimes beating yourself up to make apple routers do what you want is easier solved with lateral thinking.

  • Why does Safari quit (on my Mac) when opening PDF?

    I'm on a Mac OSX 10.5.8 on Safari. Each time I first want to open a PDF, my Safari crashes. The note says, "Problem caused by Acrobat plug-in". After relaunching Safari I can open PDF files. Help?

    Subject: Adobe Reader Why does Safari quit (on my Mac) when opening PDF?
    One of the things I have loved about Macs since switching in 2003 is:
    They tell you what went wrong when something does.
    The Acrobat plugin is corrupted.
    Solution:
    Download a trial of AppDelete. Install it and open it.
    Drag the Reader X app to the window.
    Delete everything it finds associated with Reader X and empty the trash. Re-download Reader X and re-install it.
    It will install new support and preference files and plugins. and things should go more smoothly.

  • Why does all alphabets change to capital when converting pdf to word using Adobe Acrobat XI

    Why does all alphabets change to capital when converting pdf to word using Adobe Acrobat XI

    Word 2013 uses its own pdf creator engine as far as I know. The step I performed were:
    1 - In the save settings I told word to embed fonts (sorry for the language, I have the Italian client)
    2 - Export from Word -> Save As -> .pdf adding also the table of contents/index
    N.B. I cannot use PDF/A, and in any case it doesn't embed the font
    A working solution is to use Acrobat XI to convert it or print with Adobe PDF printer, results:
    The problems are 2:
    1 - It doesn't create any bookmark and doesn't create links from the table of images to the linked images
    2 - Images, also with the preset "High Quality Printing" customized using "No compression", are really ugly and if you zoom a bit more than 100% they totally be s**t. It wasn't that way with PDF created by word.
    In the end, or I find they way to open the pdf created by word and embedd the missing font, or I find a way to make Acrobat XI creating bookmarks from the word file.
    Suggestion?

    Why does my iMac display keep shutting off?  Computer still running in the background.  I've tried unplugging and restarting, to no avail.    The computer is well out of warranty - about 7-8 years old, running 10.6.8

    Checked.... the settings had not been inadvertently changed, but I did move the scroll and reset them back to the original.   Hasn't shut off again.... yet.   Will re-post with follow-up one way or the other.   Thanks.

  • Why does it take so long to convert my PDF to word.docx? It has been going for more than 30 minutes.

    Why does it take so long to convert my PDF to word.docx? It has been going for more than 30 minutes.

    There could be several reasons. It may be that Acrobat spent that time trying and ran into too many bottlenecks. As a test you might print the PDF to a new PDF and try the conversion on the new PDF. It might be there is a problem with the original PDF that the print process would fix..
