Acrobat 9.0 Pro Help and Chrome problem

I am running Acrobat 9.4.2. Everything was working fine until Chrome was installed as part of Google Earth. Even so, Chrome is *not* the default browser (IE is).
The problem is the following: clicking on the Acrobat Help from within an open PDF document brings up the Acrobat Help within a Chrome window (in fact the usual links on the left pane are missing), even though Chrome is not the default browser (the Acrobar Help is an html file). The Acrobat Help used to show up in a IE window. Unistalling Chrome kills the help functionality altogether: clinking on the Help brings up nothing.
How do I restore the functionality, without having Chrome installed?
Thanks

Hello Bernd,
unfortunately, repair did not fix the problem.
Incidentally, there are others who have reported identical problems with the Help of other Adobe applications. The common denominator has been the installation of Chrome, which seems to be "hijacking" the Help.
I have Photoshop and Distiller installed, and both have the same problem with the Help. Unless Chrome is installed the help.html will not show up.
... would appreciate any pointers ...
Thanks
Loukas

  • Updated Premiere Pro Help, and an update on my role

    I just updated Premiere Pro Help, and now I'm in Technical Support:
    http://bit.ly/bQ9eQO
    In my new role, my job is to provide "online, one-to-many" technical support for Adobe's professional video products. In other words, I'm supposed to spend even more time helping out on forums like this one.
    So, howdy.

    > Could the help files have an indicator in the filename to show which
    is the most current.
    eg  premierepro_CS5_help_july2010  (or
    vers001)
    Putting a date in the file name of the PDF document would cause some problems, since we need to link to the files in a consistent way. But there is a date in the footer of each page other than the cover page.
    Of course, the HTML version on the Web is always up to date. When talking with someone online, I always just include a link.

  • Acrobat 8.1 Pro .mht And Some .html files Do Not Convert To PDF

    Acrobat 8.1 Pro with Windows Vista. .mht files are saved complete webpage single files similar to complete html files except they're as a single file instead of a file and a folder. When using Create From File, Acrobat does not recognize .mht files and will not convert them to PDF. Some complete .html files will not convert using Create from File, even though Acrobat does recognize them.
    Also, when I'm logged into a website and want to convert a webpage to PDF using Create From Web, often the resulting PDF document is of the login page and not the page I selected with the error message "can't locate file". These difficult webpages can be converted to PDF using the Print Adobe PDF function, but hyperlinks are not preserved with this function.
    I would like to be able to convert all files (including .mht) and webpages to PDF while preserving hyperlinks. Can anyone help me with this?

    Bruce,
    mht files are not standard html files. Acrobat will not handle those. If
    you are on a website that most be logged into, then Acrobat cannot get
    to those files since it is not logged in. You can print to pdf, since
    your browser is logged in.

  • I am running acrobat 7.0 pro - my hdd recently crashed without warning - i am now unable to re-activate my acrobat 7.0 pro - help please...thanks in advance.

    Hello - I am trying to re-activate my acrobat 7.0 pro on my new hdd after my old hdd crashed. Can anyone help: thanks in advance ...russ22

    Hi russ22,
    There's a lot of that going around lately (hard drive crashes). Sorry to hear that!
    It sounds like you've reached the maximum activations allowed, and because your hard drive crashed, of course you can't deactivate the copy that was installed there. But don't worry--Customer Care should be able to take care of that deactivation for you. Please Contact Customer Care.
    Best,

  • Acrobat 9 Pro  sizing and aligning problem

    Is there a setting for checkbox default size. when I try to select the box handels to reduce the size I can never get the all the same size. Any tips on this ?
    ALSO
    I am having dificalty in aligning the left and right edges of the Text boxes I have 7 text fields (one above the other) the "Align" function does not seem to work or is very slow.
    any help please.

    Adobe Tech support was most helpful on this.  First download the updated
    Distiller ICC profile files at:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4075&fileID= 3790
    Unzip the file and copy only the *.icc files (without regard to the subfolders that they are in - in other words, take the files out of each of the subfolders) to the followng folder in Windows 7:
    c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\color
    These new files will probably overwrite some old ones.
    This solved the problem for me.
    This is actually the best solution though I found that instead of copying all the .icc files to the windows\sys...  folder, all you need to do is copy the 3 Video files from the RGB folder (VideoHD.icc, VideoNTSC.icc, and VideoPAL.icc).  Once you add these three files to  c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\color  you will be good to go.
    It seems that this was an error on the part of Adobe in that there is no reason to include Video files for printing.  Nevertheless, the distiller will look for these and return the ICC profile error message if those files are not present.

  • Question regarding all the x58 Pro-e and memory problems

    I've notice a serious amount of issues when it comes to people not seeing all of their RAM or not getting triple-channel status.
    Before I even post my issue, I was wondering if there is a general fix for everyone experiencing these problems, because it seems I'm have the exact same issue as everyone else.

    Oh well. Its basically like I said - its the same problem most other people are having. I have 6 GB of DDR3 RAM but only 4 GB ever shows up. And it shows in Dual channel mode, when everything should be triple channel 3 x 2GB. First, here are the specs for my system, which was just recently purchased.
    Model of the motherboard: MSI X58 Pro-E LGA
    Model of the memory: G.SKILL 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) Triple Channel Kit
    Model of the CPU: Intel Core i7-930 Bloomfield 2.8GHz LGA 1366 130W
    Model of the GPU:  SAPPHIRE TOXIC 100282TXSR Radeon HD 5850 1GB 256-bit GDDR5
    Model of the HDD:  Western Digital Caviar Black WD1001FALS 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s
    Model of the PSU: CORSAIR CMPSU-750TX 750W ATX12V / EPS12V
    Type of Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
    I have tried everything. I've updated the BIOS, I've tested each stick, I've even RMA'd the board itself, but to no avail. I have 3 sticks of RAM in each of the DIMM_A slots. Each stick is 2 GB each, but the POST never counts more than 4 GBs. I've tried adding in the sticks each one at a time in different slots; in different combinations, but nothing is working. I know the sticks work and I know the board is reading them because they show up in Memory-Z in the BIOS and in fact, in a 3rd party program called Speccy, it shows 6GB! But it still says they're running Dual channel mode.
    Here is the current BIOS I am running as shown in the POST output and model of the memory as shown on the sticker AND the model of the motherboard itself:
    BIOS: A7522IMS V8.10 030910
    RAM MODEL NUMBER: F3-10666CL9T-6GBNQ | DDR3-1333 CL 9-9-9-24 1.5v | PC3-10666 2GBX3 | 10060840076833
    MOBO MODEL NUMBER: MS-7522 | VER: 3.1
    Those are exactly what are printed on the label/sticker letter-for-letter.
    Quote from: HU16E on 04-April-10, 09:18:47
    Buy the correct RAM, don't bend any CPU socket pins, install the sticks in the correct slots, don't buy into the RAM makers claims of 'rated' performance.
    You're either implying that I've incompetently bent a socket pin when I installed the CPU, placed the RAM in DIMM slots they don't belong or need to trash the $200 RAM I've just purchased.
    Ok, assuming that ISN'T the case, what exactly are you suggesting thats supposed to be of help? You say "Buy the correct RAM" but you don't tell me what the 'correct' RAM is.

  • Macbook Pro access and privilages problem

    Yesterday, without any previous warning, my Macbook Pro started giving me all sorts of problems. First, as I was trying to save files from Photoshop it gave me this error: Could not save <file name> because you do not have the necessary access privileges. Then, as I started up my Drobo it gave me this massage: MAC OS X can't repair "Drobo" You can still open or copy files on the disk, but you can't save changes to files on the disk. Back up the disk and reformat  it as soon as possible. I've never had any of those messeges appear. The Drobo has become read only and I can't save anything onto it. I've tried to repair permissions with the Disk Utility and it fixed some things, but many permissions still don't match. It didn't solve the PS saving problem nor the Drobo problem. I'm a little desperate here cause I'm not that techy...

    You need to copy all the files off the drive you can and then reformat the drive. Unless you have a product such as DiskWarrior, don't bother attempting to repair the drive at this point.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9.4 Pro / Win7 Enterprise (64bit) - problem opening pdf

    Hello,
    i got problems opening pdf files.
    when i try to open the pdf file i get the message 'access denied'. That happens when i try to open it with a standard user.
    opening that file 'as administrator' works fine.
    I tried the Win7 compatibility check and Win7 tells me that Acrobat isn't compatibel. I tried to run acrobat.exe in different compatibilty modes (XP SP2/SP3, Win NT) -> no cure . Only thing working is to run Acrobat as administrator )

    You can try to enable Admin rights on your computer.
    In start menu use the search field, type in cmd once you see that  in your search result right click on cmd and Select "Run as Administrator".
    Once the Command Prompt open's type in.
    net user administrator /active:yes hit enter after typing it.
    You should the message "The command completed successfully."
    After you try this launch the software.

  • Macbook Pro -- sleep and wakeup problems

    If I fold the screen down when leaving my Macbook pro 8,1 (ML 8.1) and then open it again within a few minutes, it will not "wake up".  If I continuously open and close it, the small LED on the front goes bright when I close it and dim when I open it.  If I leave it closed for several minutes, it will usually wake up on opening, but not always.  This particular Mac did the same thing under 10.7 and 10.6.  I've heard of the same problem from others, and I have the same problem on a Macbook 2,1, although it is less frequent on that sysem.  This does not happen on my iMac or Mini. 
    Sleep also did not work properly on a G5 from 2005, and I was told by Apple technicians at the time that Apple "broke" sleep around then, and never got it working properly again. 
    So I'm not expecting a fix, but has anyone found a reliable workaround, other than leaving the system in "sleep" mode for several minutes?   

    In regards to the trackpsd, read this Apple support article:
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203171
    Open up the MBP and inspect the battery.  It resides under the trackpad and if it has expanded, it will interfere with the trackpad,, If that is the case, replace the battery.
    Also a very thorough cleaning of the trackpad will restore functionality.
    In regards to the other issue, I suggest a reinstall of the OSX.
    Ciao.

  • Unable to view help and filter problems

    Hello,
    First of all I'm a newbie on MacOSX and really happy to use it.
    I'm having some problems using Mail.
    I have 2 IMAP accounts with a lot of folders and sub-folders. I want to create filters to automaticaly put mails into the right box.
    Creating rules is easy but when I want to choose a box in a folder, I need to open this folder in Mail before I can choose it in my filter. Example:
    INBOX
    |-Folder 1
    | |- box 1
    | |- box 2
    | |- box 3
    |-Folder 2
    If Folder 1 is closed, the filter interface don't expand it and I cannot choose box 1, box 2 or box 3.
    I try to search in the Help menu. The application launches but nothing appears. Looking into the library, I can see help for others applications but not for Mail.
    Can someone help me to debug this ?
    Thanks for help.

    Maryse,
    I don't think the size of the file should be an issue, even
    when it's 13 MB. I'm sure that other people have been distributing
    much larger files than this without problem for many years.
    You say "
    some people cannot view help", which suggests that other
    users are not encountering the problem. In other words, the methods
    that your software developers have used to connect the help file to
    the application do work properly, if not for all users.
    When users who cannot view the help press F1, does nothing
    happen, or does the help viewer open but with an error message in
    the right-hand topic pane? Is the large file the only one that is
    affected by this issue, or are all the other help files in the
    collection also affected?
    If it's of any interest to you, you don't need to compile a
    PDF file into a help file in order to display the contents of the
    PDF in the help file. Microsoft has published the following script
    for linking to an external file from a help topic:

  • Macbook Pro Screen and Graphics Problems

    I just bought a macbook pro 15" 2.53 GHz model today. I haven't even had it 12 hours and am having problems. First when I tried the screen saver it messes up, adds big squares where there aren't supposed to be any. So I just tried playing The Sims 3 to test the graphics and that played fine. Now as I am typing this the screen keeps flashing blue. Either making it seem like everything is being highlighted or going all blue for a split second.
    What is going on?
    I'm going back to the Apple Store tomorrow, this is not okay.

    Make sure to make an appointment if you want to be seen fairly quickly. They should be able to swap you out for a new one right away.

  • MacBook Pro 15" and sleep problem

    Hello:
    I have a new MacBook Pro 15". Lately, it does not go to sleep when in battery. It used to do so without any problems. My only guess is that after updating the MSN Messenger, something has changed and if I run MSN Messenger, even if I quit it, something stays running on the background that stops the machine from going into sleep mode.
    Would this be possible or could there be another reason?

    That may be the case. You can look in Applications > Utilities > Activity Monitor to see what processes are running after you quit MSN.
    You might also consider Adium (or aMSN if you want video) for chatting, instead of MSN Messenger.

  • Macbook pro screen and case problems

    I have a 2ghz macbook pro 15in.
    I have noticed dark spots and then little lines that i would call scratches on the screen. I have applecare till next year in April so i am under applecare but i am wondering if this is covered.
    I have a dented case though its dented right on the power supply port. And on the right side of the screen the case is cracked at the bottom just about an inch up fron the corner.
    Is this crack covered or will they say its from the drop that caused the dent?
    I have noticed that my case in the front pops up on either side and when looking close i noticed that on one side the screw is gone and the place the screw goes into is not there.
    Now when it fell it did not fall far and it was on carpet. But niether the case or screen turned like this untill just recently.
    any ideas?

    The only way to find out will be to ask. As you know, Apple doesn't cover damage. A trained technician should be able to distinguish between what the fall may have done and something which is a factory defect. The crack is pretty far from the dent, but it's hard to say what someone might think. And I don't know what they would say about the missing screw or what it might have affected. But you should be able to get the screw replaced.
    Check and see if your homeowner's policy would cover accidental damage. Or possibly your credit card company if you paid with one. If so, let Apple fix the damage. It's possible that if they decide the crack is unrelated to the fall, they will cover it. If you wait until Applecare is over, you know they won't cover anything. At least ask--you really have nothing to lose. At worst, they'll say no.
    Good luck!
