Acrobat 8.1.5 crashes when scanning two-sided documents-help!

Hi,
I've been searching for some answer to this, but I'm not finding any yet...
My problem is that I am trying to use Acrobat 8.1.5 to scan in a double-sided multi-page document using a Brother MFC-7420 with a document feeder. I'm on OS 10.5.8. Scanning in single sided works fine, but when I ask for two-sided scanning it scans the first side, prompts me for the second side, scans it, then waits a few seconds and crashes. I get the "application Acrobat quit unexpectedly" message.
No I uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat, updated my scanner drivers, fixed my permissions, shut down and restarted the computer several times and nothing seems to work. Tonight, however, I got an added conundrum when it allowed me to scan a single sheet front and back with now problem. When I loaded in another three sheets and tried to do the same thing, it died.
Anyone have any ideas?
I don't scan multiple pages double sided very often, but I'm pretty sure I've done it in the past with no problem so this has got me stumped.
Thanks!
Tim

Thanks for all the suggestions.
I have tried all these things (I've completely un-installed everything Adobe on my system, going through the App Support and Preferences, and anywhere else I could find at least three times; thanks to problems with the Auto Updater (now fixed apparently) I've had to manually install all the updates; I've also installed them automatically and am currently at version 8.2.1. I've fixed permission, I've repaired directory structure, I've started in a new user account. The problem still persists. The most remarkable thing is that if I stay at version 8.0 it works properly—flawlessly even.
Do I sound just a little frustrated and piqued?
Here is part of the error report when it crashes—it means nothing to me, but maybe this will help?

  • Acrobat X 10.02 crashes when converting Word 2007 document wiht linked Visio file.

    Acrobat X 10.02 crashes when converting Word 2007 document with linked Visio file and causes a C++ runtime error in Word and crashes Word.
    To see the behavior create a short Word 2007 document with a linked Visio file (e.g., create a Visio file with one box and text and insert it as a link into a Word docx).
    No problem in Acrobat 9

    There may be some of an issue with AA X on this, but part of the blame probably goes to MS also. I would suggest you simply clip the graphic from VISIO as a vector graphic (EMF will be used by default) and not do the link and do not embed the VISIO object. The linking and use of embedded objects in WORD 2007 seems to have been a major problem and is mostly a MS issue.

  • Scanning two sided document

    I have a two sided document that I would like to scan and reprint as a two sided document on my HP officeJet Pro 8600. How can I do this? My operating system is Windows 7
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Probably the easiest way to accomplish your goal would be to make a photocopy of one side and then scan the two pages to your computer. using the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF).  The two pages will then be saved in the same file.  When you open the print dialog box select 2 sided printing.  The output should be one page printed front and back.
    Also, remember a click on the Kudos star to the left is a quick "Thanks" for a helpful post.

  • Acrobat 9 Pro Crashes When Scanning Sets of Documents

    I am supporting a user at my site who is running a Windows 7 Pro machine (32 bit) with Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 with all latest updates applied.  She is continually having an issue when converting sets of scanned documents to PDF.  She is prompted that Adobe Acrobat Pro has stopped working and crashes out.  It does not exhibit this behavior on individual scans or smaller batches of documents. She seems to be encountering this issue when she tries to process, for example, a batch of 15 pages or more.

    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Also, your log says: Acrobat.exe, version: 9.0.0.332
    Looks like you have not updated Acrobat after install. The current version is 9.4.6. Also try updating Acrobat, Help->Check for updates

  • Acrobat 9.0 Pro crashes when trying to edit fields

    Acrobat 9.0 Professional crashes when I try to edit or add text fields. I am running Windows Vista. All other functions of Acrobat work.

    There was an update this last week, taking the current version to 9.3.2. The early versions often have little bugs like you describe, so an update is the first thing to try. If you download the updates from Adobe.com (the downloads>updates page), be sure to download all of them and then install them in order. If you use the updates under help, you can usually update the lowest number one they show and return for any further updates.

  • Acrobat Pro 9.3 Crashes when opening multiple files

    Acrobat Pro 9.3 Crashes when opening multiple files. I have not seen any solutions in forums that solves this problem. I have just done the most recent update and it still crashes.

    Acrobat Pro 9.4.2 (CS5) is doing the same thing on my Windows XP SP3 with 3.5 GB of ram and 206 GB of my brand new 300 GB hard drive free.
    It starting doing this at the end of last year before my hard drive died.  Then after rebuilding the entire system on this new drive it worked fine, until I downloaded all the updates and now it is broken again.  Anytime I open more than one PDF, Acrobat crashes.  I send the error report every time.

    Hey Zia,
    Please check whether the scanner works fine with other applications or not.
    On your Windows machine, please navigate to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat" and move ACE.dll file to desktop.
    Now, repair Adobe Acrobat from Control Panel and then try scanning PDF files.
    If the issue still persists, then you might need to update your scanner drivers and then check.
    Let me know if this helps.
    Regards,
    Anubha

  • ARD 2.2 Admin Crashes When Scanning Local Network

    Out of the blue, my ARD Admin application began to crash when scanning the Local Network.
    I deleted the application's preferences file (com.apple.RemoteDesktop.plist) and retried with the same results.
    Installed ARD admin application on a different machine with a fresh 10.4.2 OS install and it is still crashing whilst scanning.
    My Network Engineers swears that nothing has changed recently on the network.
    Wondering if anyone else has seen this.

    I was having the same problem until this morning, and one of my associates in a neighbor district discovered the problem. ARD 2.2 is VERY concerned about DNS entries.
    We are using OS X Server for our DNS, and what I did was create a bogus machine entry for each subnet. Thus, if I wanted to search our senior high lab subnet (10.136.43.x) I created an entry for 10.136.43.0. There is no physical machine at that address, but it forces OS X Server to create an IN-ADDR.ARPA record for that subnet. I found that to be a lot easier than manually editing the associated DNS files.
    It does work superbly. Three other folks in our district with ARD crashes tried doing searches and they were all successful. Adding the IN-ADDR.ARPA entries wasn't time consuming as we don't have a ton of subnets . We've defined standards for where machines should be as follows:
    (Device: Range)
    Switches: 10.x.1.100-150
    Printers: 10.x.2.1-50
    DHCP: 10.x.2.150-254
    Classrooms: 10.x.3.1-254
    Labs: 10.x.4.1-100
    Media Center: 10.x.4.101-150
    The junior high and high school are a bit different because they have more lab machines, but we try to stick to the basic scheme. This works great for us because 1) it allows us to know where devices should appear and 2) it greatly limits the range ARD must scan to pick up all machines of a particular kind (e.g. classroom or lab). We have a bit of reconfiguration to do because we should be able to have static classroom and DHCP units all within the 10.x.3 subnet, but that will be taken care of over the course of this year.
    I hope this helps some folks.

    Hi hhj121970,
    I suspect your question would be better answered in the HP Enterprise Business Community,  as the HP Scanjet Pro 1000 Mobile scanner is a commercial model.
    My technical expertise is with consumer products and software, I am sure the commercial folks would be happy to help if you re-post your question for them to answer. The HP Enterprise Business Community is an HP Forum designed for the Commercial and Enterprise customers to help one another. I am sure you will find some HP folks there to help too.
    Click here to view the Scanners Board. When the page opens you will see the option to 'Log in' or 'Register Now' on the right. The commercial forums are separate from the consumer boards, thus you will need to register if you don't already have a commercial account.
    You may find the HP Scanjet Professional 1000 Mobile Scanner supportpage helpful while you wait for somebody in the commercial Forum to respond to your inquiry.
    Best of luck.

  • When printing two-sided from my Mac on landscape A4 with 2 columns, how can I get my HP Photosmart 6520 to print the same way up?

    When printing two-sided from my Mac on landscape A4 with 2 columns, how can I get my HP Photosmart 6520 to print the same way up?

    Or, it is set the other way around (which makes more sense). Even though you are in Landscape mode, it is binding on the Long Side of the paper. Since you are in Landscape, you would want it to bind on the short side.
    Think of the Binding like a Book. How would you flip the finished pages to read the “book.” Where it would be bound in the imaginary book is how you want it to print.
