Acrobat 9.4 takes 10 seconds for every action

I'm new to the Mac platform, recently bought a 27" iMac running Snow Leopard 10.6.4. (2.8 GHz i%, 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3)
I've had CS5 running quite happily for a few weeks, including Acrobat 9.4. Over the last few days Acrobat started this odd behaviour of taking at least 10 seconds to respond to any clicks, I've uninstalled/reinstalled it with no effect, and can't seem to find a thread, hence this question;
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance
Sperry

Yes at one time Acrobat only supported Entourage, a ver obscure program called Mailsmith, and Eudora, and Apple Mail. (Eudora was taken over by Mozilla Or rather the R&D for it was handed over to Mozilla.)
Yet most everyone on apple side of equation use ThunderBird, SeaMonkey, Even Opera.  the message I receive is That Seamonkey or Thunderbird doesn't know how to talk to your email clent. Yet in their specifications Mozilla products show they are Mbox compliant.
On PC side they will talk to just about any Email except Mozilla Products. Its as if they put in features yet don't support software that can handle the features so most people are stuck un able to use the fetaures. Why can't Adobe get along with other software vendors. Is there Software Devopment staff so out of touch or have such a low skill set That they don't know how to write code but those name applications?
I put a Bug report for support of Mozilla Products for uears do it about once or twice a year for last 10 years or so. Goes in one ear and out the other.

  • Since the last software update for mountain lion I am having a problem when moving screenshots to trash. Now a Finder box appears saying finder wants to make changes and I have to enter my password for every action.

    Since the last software update for mountain lion, I am having a problem when trying to remove any screenshots to the trash. A box appears saying "Finder wants to make changes. Type your password to allow this"
    I have checked Finder Preferences and cannot find any box that I can 'UNTICK' to resolve this. I sometimes take a lot of screenshots when I am researching something and now find I have to enter my password for every screenshot to be removed to trash.
    Anyone got a solution please, Thanks

  • Facebook and Mail both send banner alerts in notification center for every action on facebook

    So I added Facebook to my accounts in Settings.  Then I logged in to Facebook and modified my notification settings so that I would get the notifications I wanted.  Awesome. Works great.  Problem is, these notification settings in Facebook are tied directly to your email on file with facebook -- there's no way (at least that I saw) that allows you to disable getting email from FB, but allow OS X to pull in those same notification settings. 
    So now in Notification Center, everytime someone interacts with my Facebook, I get an alert from Facebook and an alert from Mac Mail that Facebook was alerting me.  Super redundant.
    Anyone find a way around the duplications?

    I'm also having this problem.
    Notifications receives alerts from Reminders app, but not Mail.
    I've set preferences in Mail for 'Inbox Only' and 'All Mailboxes', sent test mail from ISP webmail and Google (Mail is not setup to receive from this account) - still no notifications.
    I had previously used Growl (v1.4) and GrowlMail very successfully (with 10.7), but while upgrading to Mountain Lion I was informed that GrowlMail was incompatible so I deleted it.
    While testing this problem of not receiving Mail Notifications I have disabled Growl and rebooted.
    Like others here:
    Checked: Notifications setup
    Checked: Mail setup
    Rebuilt permissions
    Rebooted
    Any help would be very gratefully received.
    Many thanks.

  • Hello, i registered my visa card and then removed and again 3 times. and im realize itunes takes money at every register, so i make little research there says itunes gives back that money back but its already 3rd week and no refunds ? Please help

    hello Apple community i have little problem i didnt know itunes takes 1$ for every register visa card. i registerd and then removed 3 times so its taked 3$ so i make little researchs i found itunes gives back that money but its my 3rd week waiting and no refund pls help.

    The temporary store holding charge that is made when you add or change the card details (to check that the card is valid and active and registered to the same name and address as on your account) should disappear within a few days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3702 - it should be your card issuer that removes the hold, so you may need to contact them :
    Authorization holds are removed by your financial institution shortly after your purchase clears. The amount of time it takes to remove authorization requests varies by financial institution.
    If you have questions about the way your financial institution handles authorization requests, contact their customer service department.
    If you want to contact iTunes support then you can do so via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • Is it possible to save System preference settings for every user that logins to a Mac OS X?

    I work at a school and we have iMacs running Mavericks 10.9 in our environment.  We have them binded to our Windows domain so that way students can use their own login to access the Macs.  I have a number of System preference settings that I would like to take a effect, but I only see that these settings take effect for every user.  So even if I login as the Main administrator account and set settings in System Preferences, such as not allowing the Wifi symbol to show, the next user that logins will still see the wifi symbol because the setting isn't taking effect for their System preferences.  Does anyone know a way to get System Preference settings to take affect for every user that logins? Maybe a script?

    Modifying the user template is not supported. You can Google for people who have done it in the past. I would recommend going to official route, if possible. Here are a couple of training documents. I'm sure there is more available though more official channels.

  • Acrobat X Not Reponding for 30 seconds almost every time I open a file

    Acrobat X Not Reponding for 30 seconds almost every time I open a file
    The title says it all.
    This happens on 4 computer systems, including:
    Windows 8 64-bit desktop, FRESH INSTALL
    Windows 8 32-bit laptop, FRESH Install
    Windows 7 64-bit desktop, REINSTALLED AND PROBLEM PERSISTS
    Windows 7 32-bit laptop
    I have read long forum postings of people having this problem on many different versions of Acrobat and Reader and tried many of the purpored solutions, none worked.
    I would like some expert advice, but more importantly why hasn't Adobe investigated and solved this widely reported phenomenon that has gone on for years? There is no way I would upgrade to Acrobat XI (which some people report has this problem) unless Adobe acknowledges and fixes this.
    Where do I report this issue to Adobe?

    no idea what IPM is.  not in the help file.  any way, who cares?  this is a bug that needs to be reported.  where does one do that?

  • Tp executes 10 second sleep function for every transport step

    I am currently working on a problem related to performance of transports. In all of the environments i work with (about 50 in total), be it DEV,ACC,QAS,SBX or PRD, i have noticed considerable delays when tp is performing an import. This delay is occurring for every step that has to kick off an RDD-job. The jobs themselves finish very quickly, within 1 or 2 seconds.  I very much convinced tp is waiting for 10 seconds exactly after kicking off a job in SAP via a trigger.  After tracing tp with flags '-t' and 'tf=' i noticed in the trace references to this 10 second wait. I did debug one of the latest tp versions on a Windows platform and found the code that does this. A PUSH of the number 10 and a CALL to a sleep routine. When you execute this code and time it it takes 10 seconds before tp comes back and then start checking the successful completion of the job it kicked off. I have changed the value of 10 to 1 with a hex editor and now the delay is only 1 second and my transports are still running fine. The duration of a very simple transport with 4 steps inside a batch job in SAP dropped from 45 to 5 seconds.
    Perhaps you think, why bother at all, but when you consider that these steps are executed multiple times per transport (sometimes even 10 times or more) and that frequently bundles are imported where several thousands of transports go in you understand why i am persuing a better solution.
    There may be a valid reason why tp is waiting, but then the mechanism has to improve.
    My question is, has somebody also noticed that tp is unnecessarily delaying the imports and what have you done to investigate ?
    Can somebody confirm what i am claiming ?
    Thanks in advance, Peter van der Woude

    For those of you who are interested in speeding up their imports without having to use 'import all' version 340.16.25 will be released shortly. In this version the sleeps are reduced from 10 to 1 second per transport step. Average transport times should drop between 40 to 50 seconds. Depending on the contents the gain could also be only 20 seconds.

  • HELP!!! LOADING ICON SHOWS EVERY 5 SECONDS FOR ABOUT 3SECONDS!

    I have a BlackBerry Curve 9250 for about 7 months now. I have no problems with my phone and it works well and I love it. But something must have happened cause the black loading icon on the center of the screen keeps on showing every 5 seconds for about 3seconds and my phone freezes everytime the loading icon appears.
    I left the house in the morning, my phone's battery is fully charged. I did nothing special with my phone, just the usual calls and texts. I didn't download any apps either. But I was using wifi during the day so when afternoon came, the battery was already orange. When I arrived home around 10 in the evening, I checked my phone and the battery was already red so I plugged it in to charge. When it started charging, that's when the loading icon started appearing. It appears every 5seconds and it freezes the screen for about 3seconds. Now that the battery is fully charged, it still does the same thing. But now, it appears every 3 seconds and freezes for about 2seconds. What to do????

    Hi yenbaluyut
    Welcome to BlackBerry Support Forums
    Have you tried a Battery pull Restart on your BlackBerry ? 
    Please do it by removing the Battery while your device is Powered On then wait for at least a minute then reinsert it back, your device may take a long reboot . After reboot please check if your current issue resolves.
    If issue persists then you have to investigate it further ! That spining clock or hourglass appears when our device undergo low memory or if any application runs in the background. Sometime A battery pull restart is enough to resolve this issue, If we press and hold the Menu for a few seconds, it will pop up a screen which will show all running programs in the background ,generally five will always there ( Home, BBM, Message,Phone , Browser ) look if any other apps. are running.
    Also Check the File Free at Options > Status > Check File Free , In addition have you enabled Memory Cleaner on your device?  Options > Security > Memory Cleaner,  is it enabled ? If it is then disable it because  It is also responsible for device  freezing and clocking.
    If that doesn't help then you can follow this Knowledge Base article :

  • Adobe Bridge (CS6) - bulk action - JPEG Options must be OKed for every image

    Hi all-
    I created an action script for a watermark in Photoshop CS6. Then, I ran my script as a bulk action in Adobe Bridge (CS6) against my JPEGs. However, the JPEG Options dialog/window appears for every image in PS. Is there a way to have this automatically OK (and at the highest quality) so that I don't have to sit and click OK over and over?

    Hi, sorry, I haven't played with MPCUI yet but it we're excited about the capabilities it appears to provide. We'd like to "combine" a lot of our reports and one-offs into OEM so things are better-organized.
    That said... I dug around a bit and thought this might help. Could you add timePeriod & interval to your own c:Table id element (is that the correct term)?
    In the case of the table component, you can specify the metric directly also:
    <c:Table id="processesTable" width="100%" height="100%"
    metricName="CPUProcessesPerf"
    metricColumns="['ProcUser', 'ProcCPU', 'ProcCmd']"
    timePeriod="REALTIME"
    interval="30"

    <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn width="100" dataField="ProcUser" />
    <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn width="80" dataField="ProcCPU" />
    <mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn width="400" dataField="ProcCmd" />

  • Why does my macbook pro retina take 30 seconds for me to use it when i open the lid?

    For some reason it takes my macbook like 30 seconds for me to use it when i open the lid.  I cant move the mouse or anything until like 30 seconds go by is that normal or something wrong?  Its the new macbook retina display and never had this problem when i first got it.

    Are you running any applications when you open the lid, specifically any applications that are heavy on GPU usage such as iMovie or Photoshop?

  • G3 screen lights up every 18 seconds for 6 seconds while at rest? How can I stop that

    A G3 lights up the screen every 18 seconds for 6 seconds while at rest. How do I stop this. Have turned off all the auto update, location find, etc I can find and it still lights the screen every 18 seconds. Battery taking a beating and can't use it for an entire day without a charge. This seems to be the culprit.

  • Acrobat 7 requires admin password at every launch for non admin users?

    acrobat 7 requires admin password at every launch for non admin users?
    any one with a solution or similar problem?
    thanks for any help.

    I've been avidly following all of the threads regarding this issue...yet none of the solutions have worked for me. I've got 11 Mac users that do not use the Creative Suite..only Acrobat, Quark, etc. I've tried installing and re-installing through both Admin and User accounts, I've tried the AdobeBib XML change, I've tried enabling Root and installing, changing permission on the Acrobat folder, etc. all to no avail. I still get asked for Admin Authentication every time Acrobat and Distiller are opened (except on the Admin account side). This is happening on one particular Mac (G4, 1GB Ram, OS 10.4.3) for both Acrobat Standard 6 and 7 as well. The biggest issue that also happens in tandem with the Acrobat installs is the inability to print from Quark. I get the following error when printing: "The process "pictwpstops" terminated unexpectedly on signal 6." Because of the necessity to print Quark documents, I have uninstalled all Acrobat on the machines until we can get a fix. This resolves the printing problem with Quark. The only option left is to set up all users as Admin accounts - which I really do not want to do. Any other suggestions out there? I've got more information available if needed.

  • After minimizing it takes up to 5 seconds for home screen to load

    Galaxy S3, Android 4.3: After minimizing, it takes up to 5 seconds for the home screen to load. The screen is empty, without icons or widgets (not black - just completely empty). Seems to be Firefox specific: Chrome and other applications are not affected by this. Highly annoying. Can this be fixed?

    I have an HTC Gingerbread device, and it has a problem with several different programs that if you use the Back button to exit Firefox and some other apps to the home screen, it crashes (white screen with HTC logo) and needs several seconds to rebuild. In my case, this seems to start at some point in a session, and then continues until I restart the device.
    So I don't think this is necessarily specific to your build of Android or the Samsung shell. I'm not sure what causes it. Since you have a popular device, you might check a forum like the following to see whether anyone has more insight there:
