Acrobat 7.0 Professional file disappears after loading

Recently my co-worker ran into the following problem: every time she opened a PDF file, the file would load, display on the screen and then disappear. Acrobat would still be open and the title bar would still display the file name, but the file would no longer be visible. This happened to all the PDF files she accessed.
She's rebooted and the problem seems to have disappeared for the moment... (but, like all problems, I'm sure it's lying in wait until we have a deadline to meet...)
Suggestions?

Heh...maybe there is easy explanation for this :)
You are saying Acrobat is still running, file is still opend (can the file be seen under the Window option?)
Acrobat remembers the position of last opened file, so it is possible that it is opened somewhere outside the visible screen.
This is common when having two monitors e.g. and you extend Acrobat to both of them, open some document on secondary monitor, then resize acrobat back to first monitor, so actually last file was opened on second monitor...

    No. You just can't use Acrobat on your computer anymore (unless you buy it,
    of course).

    aperture 3.2.4, macbookpro lion: image disappears after loading from any project; repairing everything on starting app doesn't fix it. Only restarting the computer works. Any help, please? ... in non-technical language please. Thanks

    “Hi Kirby, thanks a lot for your answer.
    I got one answer, from DMoore, saying:
    “Try Safe boot and then restart with only Aperture open.  Still doent work write back with more details like Ram, HD capacity/free space.  Are these thumbnails or Previews? Have you turned off building previews in AP preferances?
    Safe boot   http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564
    Starting up into Safe Mode does several things:
    1  It forces a directory check of the startup volume.
    2  It loads only required kernel extensions (some of the items in /System/Library/Extensions).
    3  In Mac OS X v10.3.9 or earlier, Safe Mode runs only Apple-installed startup items (such items may be installed either in /Library/StartupItems or in /System/Library/StartupItems; these are different than user-selected account login items).
    4  It disables all fonts other than those in /System/Library/Fonts (Mac OS X v10.4 or later).
    5  It moves to the Trash all font caches normally stored in /Library/Caches/com.apple.ATS/(uid)/ , where (uid) is a user ID number such as 501 (Mac OS X v10.4 or later).
    6  It disables all startup items and login items (Mac OS X v10.4 or later).
    7  Mac OS X v10.5.6 or later: A Safe Boot deletes the dynamic loader shared cache at (/var/db/dyld/). A cache with issues may cause a blue screen on startup, particularly after a Software Update. Restarting normally recreates this cache.”
    As I don’t know much about the technical aspects of computers, I don’t really understand the first answer, and it sounds like following it might produce unwanted changes.
    But I understand your questions, so I’ll try to answer them;
    "loading from any Project" means that I encounter the problem when I’m using a project, possibly after/because I’ve left the Mac on overnight, and/or  I’ve made a lot of adjustments, and, once the problem is there, it happens in any other project which I open – the images load then disappear.
    I can see images in the Browser, so it only happens in the Viewer(s).
    I’m afraid I don’t understand what you mean by: “If you select "Photos" from near the top of the Library tab of the Inspector, does it show you all of your Images?”. I am a newcomer to Aperture, so I don’t know what some of the buttons are for yet, but when I want to look at and adjust my pictures, I import them, as referenced images, then Aperture creates a folder/project in the Library. When I click on that Project (when it’s working properly), all the images appear in the Browser or the Viewers  – without me needing to “select Photos from near the top of the Library tab of the Inspector”. I selected it and looked at all the items in the dropdown menu, but none of them seems to offer the option to ‘show all the images’. So I’m not sure how to answer your question except to say that – yes, I can see all the pictures in the Browser or the Viewers (when it’s working properly), but I don’t seem to need to use the Photos button to achieve this.
    Did Aperture work before?
    Yes it worked ok for a while, but I only purchased it on 24th May.
    If I understand correctly, the difference between thumbnail and preview is that the thumbnail is what I see when the “Loading” wheel is turning, and the disappearance of this wheel after a few seconds means that I am now looking at the preview (also, the thumbnail cannot be adjusted).
    So I think the problem occurs when the thumbnail has finished loading; the viewer going blank/grey might mean that it is not showing the preview.
    But I have not changed the default Preview settings in Aperture Preferences.
    My macbookpro details:
    2.7 Ghz Intel Core i7
    Memory: 8 Gb 1333 MHz DDR3
    Hard Drive capacity 499.25 GB
    Available 387.36 GB
    I have noticed another problem: I cannot apply the same rating to multiple images: following the instructions, I select a group of contiguous (or non- contiguous) images, choose a selection eg “5stars” using the keyboard, but the stars only appear in the last selected image – even though all the images are still showing as selected.”
    I hope this helps you to understand more.
    Thank you for trying to help me.

  • Export file disappears after exporting

    Export file disappears after exporting
    Tried dataexport(calc script), report script,need du=ynamic calc members too..
    its urgent now....please help
    But I have lots and lots of dynamic calc members...its huge...will take hours together to change...so I planned to make stored for only those members which are required in export file...but now...It seems that default calc is not getting executed... may be that happened because I changed few member properties...
    Any thoguths why now dynamic calc is not working?
    Thanks a lot for any help..its really urgent now...

    Regardless of which limited export process you are using (dataexport calc script, report script, or MaxL/Esscmd export) I can't imagine the export file disappearing if it in fact gets written out at all.
    As rinku wrote, if it's a true Esssbase export it's either in the app folder or where ever you wrote it with MaxL/Esscmd.
    There are known issues with dynamic calc and dataexport. I've seen this myself and ultimately gave up on exporting the dynamic members. Yes, your changes could cause your exising aggregation scripts to give different results.
    How about this:
    1) Reduce scope of export process and remove dynamically calculated Accounts/Periods (a guess on my part, but likely right)
    2) Export to known location (app folder under Essbase folder or some server-addressable folder). Btw, how are you doing the export? It wasn't clear from your post, but I guess it doesn't really matter.
    3) See if that works, and if so, expand until failure. That will tell you what is and isn't going to work.

  • Quicktime X file disappear after convert it.

    I have a video on .mp4 format, open it on Quicktime X then use the "save as" option to convert this file to an iPod format. Usually takes about 30 minutes. The weird thing is that if I leave the computer running the process and get back later, the file disappears.
    When the conversion starts generate an icon on the desire destination. But apparently if you don't manipulate the file right after the conversion is done the file just disappear.
    Does anyone had the same problem before? Any Idea how to solve it?
    The thing is that I don't want to sit in front of my computer to wait until the conversion is done, just upload several video and used them once they are all ready.

    Hi Brian
    thank you so much for your help !
    I still don't fully understand waht really happned...
    But I think the problem was solved...thanks to you.
    I firstly tried to do exactly what you suggested: Exported the project as QT, then quited FCP, dragged the file into Compressor's Batch window, told the compressor to make a MPEG2 frm it... and here it stoped working...Submit ws subdued and I could not make it work...Then I took a look at the file QT had exported...it was a 303Mb FCP movie, not a QT.mov file, and the sequence was about 4.5 Gb !
    Here I tried something else:
    First, from FCP, Printed the sequence to video. Then captured it to FCP again to a new project, through Log and Capture, this time it did not need rendering and in the Capture Scratch folder after saving the new project was a QT.movie file; Dragged it to Compressor and made a MPEG2 file...
    On the phone with the project's author I heard for the first time the original QT.mov files he gave me were in fact exported from iTunes under MacOS 9.2...I don't know if this can mean anything, since I have worked before with QT files exported from iTunes with no problem...
    Can you please give me your insight about all this ?

  • Downloaded files disappear after download finishes

    I downloaded a file from several locations. Mozzila backup, evernote and other downloads
    The download finishes, but the file disapears afterwards from my system and can't be found back.
    The download should be on the location as requested.

    I have this problem too, I have selected the downloads folder, when the download is finished it disappears, I have done a search of the files, and they simply are no longer on my computer. How do I fix this. I looked at the above articles and all that was suggested was to change the strings, but didn't say what to change the strings too. I have already deleted firefox and then redownloaded it and reinstalled it. How do you fix this?
    I have reset everything to default, I have eliminated cleared the database, cleaned the registry, reinstalled and the files still disappear after they are downloaded
    I have done the steps here: http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
    and this one and still nothing: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_save_or_download_files

  • .Exe file disappearing after use Windows 7

    So I have a .exe in a folder that after opening the .exe and closing it again, (It's a Ren'Py game), the file disappears.
    If I try to extract the game again (It's in 3 zips) into the same folder I get Access Denied from the .exe. It is not a virus, my antivirus hasn't reported doing ANYTHING to a file or folder (I even manually scanned it and it said it was fine). I've set the
    permissions to full access, and I'm the owner.
    I have no idea why it is doing this. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Can you try a different product and check ?

  • PDF files disappeared after upgrade to Win7

    Copied folder with XLS, DOC, PPT and PDF files to a shared server.  Upgraded workstation to Win7. Copied folder to new Win7 workstation. All the Office files are there, but none of the PDF files. Help! Tried to ReIndex, no change. Why would just the PDF files disappear?

    yes, but hopefully you deactivated your previously installed adobe programs. 
    if so, you can install your upgrade programs using your original serial numbers and activate your programs. 
    if you cannot activate your new installs (becaues you failed to deactivate your previously installed programs), you'll need to contact support. 
    i've found the help via chat is easy-to-use and quick.

  • Premiere Elements 9 window disappears after loading project

    Hello all,
    I've been having issues with Premiere Elements (9) lately. I have read other threads similar to my problem and followed some of the instructions (deleting the Pref file, for example).
    Whenever I open a specific project (that has worked before until recently), the loading progess bar goes from 0-100 and then it stays there. After that, the entire program disappears. It doesn't crash (as it's still in the task bar), but when I click on PrE9, nothing comes up. When I mouse-over the icon on the task bar, it's just the window buttons (minimize, expand, exit).
    The reason I started this thread is because none of the problems I found were really similar to mine.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    (Also, please pardon me if this thread is in the wrong place.)
    Thanks!

    Have you looked at any possible involvement of the antivirus program in the way of recent updates for it? Recent Windows Updates? Can we assumed that you have not added, subtracted any programs that would coincide with the onset of the issue?
    Have you checked to make sure that your video card is up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the video card?
    Recently, with Premiere Elements 10 and NVIDIA video card, answers have come from rolling back the driver.
    I guess you tried the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file deletion. But, did you try deleting the whole 9.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists?
    Do you have the Premiere Elements 9 installation disc for installations files in case a deactivation, uninstall, run through of ccleaner, reinstall is indicated?
    But, let me backup for a moment. Is this issue confined to one previously created project or to all your Premiere Elements projects either new or old?
    Let us start here and then move forward according to your answers.
    Thanks.

    Add On...Usual...confirm that you have the latest version of QuickTime installed, you are running the program as the 9.0.1 Update, and you are running the program Run As Administrator or from a User Account with Administrative Privileges.

  • Images suddenly disappear after loading. how can I fix this?

    Recently I had a problem with my proxy setting and I reset my Freegate settings.
    After that something bad happened. Whenever I search something is Google image and load an image in new tab, it takes a little time to load the image completely but right after that the image disappears.
    Sometimes suddenly a tab opens and says that my player setting should be updated; but when I download the "player-setup.exe" file, it quickly disappears from that folder! Once I could copy it before disappearing, but when I clicked on it, an error occurred that "it's not a valid application".
    My Firefox is the latest version. But I also have other problems with it and I don't know why.

    This smell like you were trying to safe malware, so it might have been your AV software that noticed this file and removed it to prevent infection.
    If you get a pop-up message asking to update Firefox or plugins then such a message is likely a scam and you should never respond to such an alert to avoid getting infected with malware.
    *Only update Firefox via "Help > About" or by downloading and installing Firefox from the Mozilla server and never via a pop-up or link on a web page.
    *Plugins should only be updated via the plugin itself or by visiting the home page of the plugin.

  • Files disappeared after running disk utility disk repair but still space still remains. how do i recover the files?

    stupidly repaired my external hard disk without backing it up via mavericks's disk utility repair option.
    After the repair, all my folders disappeared but at the same time I noticed that the disk space still remained the same. Is there anyway to get these files back? My thesis is on it.

    General File Recovery
    If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten by using recovery software such as MAC Data Recovery, Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro.  Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive.  Two free alternatives are Disk Drill and TestDisk.  Look for them and demos at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads. Recovery software usually provide trial versions that enable you to determine if the software would help before actually paying for it. Beyond this or if the drive has completely failed, then you would need to send the drive to a recovery service which is very expensive.
    The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.
    Also visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on Data Recovery.
