Acrobat 8/9 staple + collate defaults not sticking, odd

A customer of mine came across a odd issue. The user opens a multi-page PDF and prints using a profile with staple + Collate. Everything works fine it prints properly. If the user opens up a second multi-page PDF and goes to print the settings have changed from staple + Collate to Staple + Group. This happens even while still in the printing profile that is suppose to specify Staple + Collate. I've found that this issues appears on Acrobat 8 and 9 but not on Acrobat 10 or Reader 11.
The user in on Windows 7 and is printing to a Canon IR Advanced 4045. I've tried Canon 4045 and the PCL drivers with the same result.
I appreciate any help that can be given, my user is getting irritated by this issue.

I hear what you are saying and everyone hates IE but we have to design for all browsers.
I guess the best work round is to forget the target as _blank and wait until Microsoft stop that working in IE as well!
Just thought someone else might have found a work round or that Adobe would want to find a fix also otherwise people will stop using Acrobat Reader as well.

  • Opening EPS file,  defaults not sticking..

    I am trying to open a bunch of EPS files and when the dialog box pops up, the default is CMYK and 72 DPI.  So I have to manually type in 200dpi and change CMYK to RGB. I would like it to default at 200DPI and RGB so that I can avoid the aduous task of changing these every time. I never had an issue with this in previous versions of PS - which seemed to remeber what I wanted -  but with CS4, it aint sticking.
    How can I  make this the preference?
    thanks!

    Don't know about setting the defaults for that but i can give you a workaround: make a new action in which you open one of the files with the settings you want. Go to File->Automate->Batch, select the folder which contains the files you want to open, make sure that you select "Override action open commands" and that you set Destination to None.

  • How to set adobe acrobat 9 pro as pdf default program on mac snow leopard OS?

    how to set adobe acrobat 9 pro as pdf default program on mac snow leopard OS?

    I say to highlight more than one if you can because if the PDF you highlight was made by using Acrobat, it will change all PDF's made by Acrobat but if you have one made by some other product, it may not change them to open with Acrobat.
    So in other words, at some point you may have to do it to a PDF made by some other product.

    Can anyone help with this - do I have to uninstall Reader and then reinstall?

    I have had a trial version of Acrobat X1 Pro - I have decided not to buy at this stage - for some time it has been conflicting with opening PDF docs after "saving as" from word 2007 - I uninstalled Pro X1 and now when I "save as" PDF from word 2007 to PDF it will save the document as a PDF but will not open the document to display after publishing - I have to got to where the file has been saved to view the new PDF document - this is really annoying - do I have to delete adobe reader and reinstall it - adobe needs to look at this conflict with acrobat pro as I have even gone it to properties and tried to have adobe reader as the default PDF program - the main issue is that I cannot view the PDF after publishing it from word 2007

  • Mail preferences not sticking

    I access iCloud email via the web when I'm at work (Win XP SP3 + latest release of Chrome).  Recently (as in over the past couple weeks, give or take) my preferences (not showing images in HTML email, default email address for sending, show BCC, etc.) are not sticking permanently.  Sometimes I make/save the changes and they stay for days; other times (like this morning) they don't even stay set for an hour.  My rules are always there, but the other preferences need to be reset periodically -- and seemingly randomly -- to their default values.
    I have deleted all cookies, cleared the cache, etc.  I have not tried another browser because (1) it could be days between "resets" and I don't want to have to use another browser for that long just for troubleshooting and (2) I need this to work in Chrome, so whether it works in another browser is more or less moot.  No matter what troubleshooting steps I've taken, the problem recurs unpredictably.  It is very frustrating because I have to keep a constant eye on the "From" address when replying or sending new messages to mailing lists I'm on (which reject messages from the address that iCloud defaults to), plus with the option defaulting to "On" to show images in HTML email, I'm opening myself up to even more spam than usual.
    So two questions:
    Is anyone else having this same issue?
    Why are these preferences apparently stored in cookies rather than persisting on Apple's server?  Or if they ARE on Apple's server, why do I have to keep changing them back periodically?
    Thanks,
    Brent

    As follow-up, just since I posted this message and without reloading the iCloud tab, restarting the browser, or anything like that, the preferences have once again reverted themselves less than an hour after I changed them.

  • Changes made in the PODCAST GET INFO window do not "stick"?

    When working with podcasts, changes made in the GET INFO window do not "stick" for newly downloaded podcasts? In other words the changes are not persistent for newly downloaded podcasts. I want the changes to apply to past, present, and future podcasts.

    thats difficult to say without seeing the code in the template.
    when you dont supply any _tempate value in the url, the system by default uses
    WEBREPORTING_SELSCREEN template.
    your po_selscreen may be a copy of this and modified to change the look and feel or something like that. compare these two and see whats causing the selscreen from appearing completely

  • Adobe customization settings not "sticking"

    Hi
    We are using ProSystem's PDFlyer program. Acrobat settings does not "stick" within the program. We tested adding other toolbar elements to quick tools, and changing Acrobat Preferences in the Edit
    > Preferences menu, and none of the customizations we made were still active the next time we re-opened Acrobat.
    Other customizations within the PDFlyer program work just fine.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hello community,
    it's amazing that the longstanding problem seems to stay down to the present day and neither Adobe nor admins found a solution for that. :-(
    My plain intention was to enable enhanced security, preconfigure trust and lock down all settings. The best way would be to create a patched and transformed msi package of Adobe Reader 9 which can be deployed by Windows group policys. After applying the msp to the msi file I opened the msi in Adobe Customization Wizard 9 and made the desired modifications, in particular by adding a recursive folder in Privileged Locations Exempt. The test setup ran without any problems. To verify the modifications in Reader I checked it under "Edit / Preferences / Security (Enhanced)" and wondered why the exempt list still was empty.
    In the Adobe "Enhanced Security and Trusted Locations" Guide there is specified where the enhanced security settings are stored in Windows Registry. At least the Privileged Locations Exempt entries should be stored in HKCU. I checked this up in registry of my test installation and found these entries in HKLM instead. So it seems that Adobe Reader would ignore these entries and it is expected that all settings are stored in HKCU indeed. But in that case the settings are only recognized if the user's interface is not locked down.
    So my questions are: Did anybody managed it? How is it possible keep preconfigured settings and lock down user's interface of Enhanced Security Settings at the same time? Is it better to avoid using Customization Wizard and deploy the settings via reg files instead?
    Any responses would be appreciated.

  • Properties panel not  "sticking" CS4

    Somehow my property panel is "loose" and not sticking to the bottom. Here's a screenshot if that helps. How do I get it back in place so it's not floating and it stretches across the bottom of the working area automatically? Thanks so much in advance!

    I've had this problem, too—with the Properties panel, the Tools, or the Document window. Once they get moved by hand, they never seem to coordinate with the other panels properly.
    My only solution has been to reselect a default Workspace (from the upper-right of the screen, or at the bottom of the Windows menu), which resets the panels.

  • System Preferences Do Not Stick

    System Preferences for adding menu icons do not stick.
    Date & Time/Clock: Show the date and time
    Displays: Show Displays in menu bar
    International/Input menu: Show input menu in menu bar (even when there, it didn't actually work)
    Sound: Show volume in menu bar
    I check these in System Preferences, but they do NOT appear on the menu bar, and are unchecked after a re-boot. This all started after re-doing a 10.4.11 combo update as was suggested to speed up shutdowns which take several minutes. The re-do of the update just made everything worse. I repaired permissions, ran daily, weekly & monthly scripts in OnyX, reset PRAM, reset open firmware.

    Here's what I'd try,
    Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then...
    You've probably got a few corrupt preference files.
    Move these files to the Desktop for now...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    /Users/<yourname>/Library/Preferences>com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
    /Users/<yourname>/Library/Preferences/ByHost>com.apple.systemuiserver.xxx.plist
    where 'xxx' is a 12 digit (hexadecimal) numeric string.
    Reboot.
    This will reset your Menu Bar to the default, you'll need to go through System Preferences to reset the ones you need. (If they are already checked, uncheck them first and then recheck them).

  • Sound settings not sticking through reboot after 10.6.2

  • Photoshop and CS6 Epson Page Settings do not stick

    I am using Photoshop Extended CS6 on a Mac with OS 10.7.4 and the latest driver for an Epson 7800 just downloaded from the Epson site. In the Print Settings dialogue "Page Setup" defaults to "Roll Paper - Banner" and any other selection such as sheet does not stick when saving a printing preset. Once selected, it appears to stay for one print, but returns to roll paper so that it needs to be reset with every print.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem and if so, have you found a solution?
    Thanks,
    Ed

    Ed,
    I noticed the same thing with the margins, however, as I use mostly large sheet sizes (I had the paper curl of rolls) that does not affect the lack of a sticky setting for "sheet" when I save a preset.
    I had three conversations this week with Epson Technical Support. The last one being today with Ron who took control of my desktop and found out for himself exactly what I was saying. He then spoke to others in his department and came back with the response, "apparently this is an issue we are aware of and it will be fixed." "When," I asked. He didn't know and said to just keep checking for an update their drivers page.
    Personally, I will not hold my breath. I would suspect that in the grand scheme of things, this bug is of very low priority.

  • Energy saver settings do not stick when set in system preferences

    For some reason when I restore the default settings for the energy saver settings, the settings go back to a custom setting I set months prior of Display Sleep at 1 minute.
    Here is what I am doing:
    Going to "System Preferences"
    Going to "Energy Saver"
    Pressing the button "Restore Defaults"
    Everything goes back to the default settings of Computer Sleep of 10 minutes and Display Sleep of 10 minutes and I close the window out.
    Problem happens: A bit later I come back to my iMac and wake it up, the setting is back to 1 minute of Display Sleep (which I did months ago, I no longer want that).
    I have even locked the setting to prevent further changes. Which locks the settings in place like it should I believe. However, once the iMac sleeps and I wake it up in a couple of hours it switches back to the old setting I made months ago, 1 minute of Display Sleep, which I no longer want.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance!

    i have the opposite problem... i would like to use custom Energy Saver settings but they will not "stick." instead they keep returning to the default settings. i followed the advice on this thread, thinking it might solve my problem too. but it did not. any suggestions?
    i had one hunch - that it might have something to do with the file of same name but with ~orig at the end (see image below). should i remove the other file as well?
    thanks!

  • How can I make Acrobat Pro XI open by default to thumbnails view (Pages Panel & Pages)?

    Not possible. This is a file-specific setting, not an application-wide

  • Issues with Finder - window 'view type' not sticking, picture backgrounds

    Since my upgrade from Snow Leopard, I've noticed a few minor problems with the Finder in Lion.
    Can anyone confirm if these are known bugs in Lion?
    1. At random, certain folders will not remember their view type anymore. Some do, some don't. Logging in as root and changing them there has fixed some, but others keep reverting back to a "default". It happens at any point while I am using the system, even without logging out or restarting. I've changed folder view types and come back 10 minutes later and they've changed on me! I used to have this problem with Tiger and Leopard, but not Snow Leopard. Seems it's back with Lion 10.7.0.
    2. Under Snow Leopard I had various JPG and PNG photos used as backgrounds for various folders in icon view. Under Lion, almost all of these backgrounds now only occupy one small corner of the window. They are not being displayed at their full size. The fact that they worked in Snow Leopard indicates there are no problems with the photos themselves.
    3. Various problems with grid layout in icon view. Dragging an icon to it's proper position in the grid will often not "stick". i.e. I line it up perfectly with the grid yet the icon goes flying off half way across the screen to another position. The Finder seems a lot less forgiving than Snow Leopard in this regard.
    Since everything was runing perfectly for me in Snow Leopard I assume these are bugs that will hopefully be ironed out in future system updates.
