Acrobat 9 (CS4) Freezes when pressing 'Print' button

Hi all,
I am having a problem with Acrobat Pro 9.0.0 in that when I go to print (with any setting/printer etc) selected, the dialog freezes after pressing the 'Print' button. Therefore I must force-quit to start Acrobat again.
I have tried trashing the preferences, removing Acrobat 9 altogether & re-installing and nothing seems to be helping.
I have also tried all sorts of different PDF files both created by myself as well as random PDF's from elsewhere.
What also seems to happen is that the blue 'Print' button pulses while waiting to be pressed and then when pressed goes blue and stops pulsing and that is where it stays frozen.
Please let me know if you need any more information or details of the configuration I am using.
ps. I have Acrobat Professional 8.1.3 also installed which works fine including printing.
Regards,
Ross

Hi Mike,
I do have some startup items;
EyeTV Helper
AdobeResourcesSynchroni
I Love Stars
GrowlHelperApp
NikePlusUtil
EEvent Manager
EPSON Scanner Monitor
I don't have any haxies on anything.
I made a new user account and tried to replicate the problem but it seems to work fine when logged in as a different user which leads me to think it is a preference in my current user>library

Acrobat 9 freezes when I print a filled in form

When I click on the print button in Acro 9 the app often freezes. I have to force quit, and then try again. Sometimes it takes 5 or 6 attempts before things print normally

OS X 10.5.5
Dell MFP Laser 3115cn (I have no trouble printing in any other application)
I don't know whether it is a "raster" or "postscript" printer. How would I figure this out?

Illustrator CS4 Freezing When Loading Print Option

Computer Specs:
Dell Dimension 3000
Windows XP (SP3)
750 MB of RAM
Pentium 4 (2.80 GHZ)
40 GB HD / 20 GB Available
** Security patches up-to-date.
Illustrator Version:
CS4 v14.0.0
Problem:
When I am go to "File > Print" the print screen begins to load and then completely freezes. The default printer is set to "Brother GT-541". This is a digital garment inkjet printer. If I switch the default printer to something else, the print screen will load without issue. If I then change the destination printer in the drop-down menu to "Brother GT-541" it will freeze. Once Illustrator is frozen, I need to force quit in order to get back into Illustrator.
I contacted the company we purchased the Brother GT-541 from - to see if they were aware of any issues. There were none - but they explained that they have no customers who use CS4, most all of them use CS3 or prior. They advised that I update the Brother GT-541 printer driver, which I did - and it turned out to be no help.
At this point I do not know what to try. Any advice you could offer would be greatly appreciated.

i have the same problem, but I can't print anything out of AI 4. Not even as a PDF. Amd I can't change the printer. Was exporting it to the hard drive but printing was not good-can't adjust the layout on the page,and weird thing, there was 2 color in the latest thing I designed and it only printed b&w. Customer service told me to go elsewhere (I am being polite here). I have found the only workaround I could do which is save it as a pdf and print from the bridge. I real pain but at least it prints. I am not a computer genius to do all these other workarounds people have suggested. If there is a bette,r easier solution I would love to hear it. I have Mac osx 10.9.

Malfunctioning printer call to DLBAPRP,DLL FOR DELL PRINTER A940, ERROR 126. This error occurs when pressing properties button. Is there a patch to fix this?

This error does not occur with any of my other programs employing this printer when pressing properties button. The complete error message I get is as follows:

I've found a new way .. I restart the phone manually. And it works. But sometimes , the Problem reappears and sometimes it doesn't . But when it does , its just too annoying. Therefore, restarting the phone manually is a temporary solution. But what's the permanent solution for it? Let's wait and hope that someone comes up with one.
And I hope this restarting hint solves your problem too.
P.S- instagram or any other app won't make a difference. That's what i think .. Cz I don't have that app on my iPhone.

Acrobat X freezes when I run a JavaScript Action after about 200 files.

Acrobat X freezes when I run a JavaScript Action after about 200 files, batches with less than 200 files work well. I can watch the Acrobat.exe process in the resource monitor and when the Threads reach about 2000 and the Working Memory reaches 500mb, Acrobat freezes. The JavaScript creates 2 redaction areas, applies the redaction, then saves the file to another location. I've tested it on both Windows Server 2008 and Win7 32bit. I'm running Acrobat X Pro fully update to 10.1.10.

It is possible to have the Redaction tool search for a text string across multiple PDFs without using the "Action" wizard or batch processing. You will have to learn the exact steps to properly set the properties for each string of text. You can also review the items marked for redaction and either accept, remove or adjust as needed each one.
There are 3rd party tools that can also redact PDFs and they existed long before this feature was added to Acrobat. Appligent Document Solutions Redax..
Appligent even has a server based product for large amount of files or using watched folders.

My mini ipod appears off and not respond to any commands when pressed the buttons to reset, apple logo appeared and then the apple support site and it shuts down. already tried all the steps, but none worked, and when I plug it into my computer it does not appear in the iTunes bar. what do I do?

If MacKeeper corrupted the Recovery partition then even I underestimated its potential for damage. Garbage "cleaning" apps will cause misery but I have not found that the Recovery partition to have been affected by using MacKeeper or anything like it. I doubt that it did so, but I have learned not to underestimate the potential for such things to result in system corruption.
Before concluding your Mac has a hardware failure, try booting OS X Internet Recovery by holding command option r on startup (three fingers). That will force your iMac to bypass the Recovery partition altogether, and convey the ability to create a new one.
An Internet connection will be required (wired or wireless).
At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red. If Disk Utility reports "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" in green then you can be reasonably (though not completely) assured your hard disk is in good working order.
Assuming the HD remains usable you can then use Disk Utility to erase it. Reinstall OS X, restore your essential software and other files, and don't reinstall the junk.

Indesign CS4 freezes when I export to InCopy or when I update an InCopy CS4 File.

Do you have any capture cards in the computer? For example, Blackmagic, Aja, Matrox, CineForm, etc.
If so, it's software might be causing the problem. Go to "Programs And Features" in the Vista Control Panel to remove the software for the capture card. Restart the computer and then try again.
Did you install any plug-ins for Premiere?
If so, remove them and see if the problem goes away.
Also, where are you saving your projects? Try saving one to your Desktop and see if you still have the problem. If you don't, then it could be a problem with your save location.

Submiting requests when pressing a button.

I have a button that when pressed should fire an HTMLDB After Submit process and just after the process has finished, it should trigger a javaScript function to call a pop-up page.I've tried to do that in three different ways:
1)Using the button optional URL redirect, and as the URL target I send first the request to run the After submit process and then the request to open the pop-up window.
The problem with that solution is that the pop-up window opens before the
process is completed, which is an inconvinience for me.
2)Running the After submit process when pressing the button and running an after processing braching to call the javaScript function. It didn't work as HTMLDB redirect the application to an error page saying that no branch is specified...
3)Inside the After submit process after a call to a procedure that resolves the logic of the process I've tried to call the pop-up using webtoolkit's tag htp.p as follows:
htp.init;
htp.p('<script language = "javascript">');
htp.p('callMyPopup2("480",'+l_aux+');');
htp.p('alert("entre");');
htp.p('</script>');
But it didn't work neither.
The HTMLDB version I'm using is 1.5.0.00.33. Is there a way to accomplish that when pressing a button a process is ran and just after its execution is finished call a javascript function that opens a pop-up page?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards.
Larissa.

Vikas,
The question is interesting. I remember trying something similar without success and would be interested in an answer. I could imagine the following situation:
1. I start a process that runs a procedure which fills in a table with values
2. after the process is completed a pop-up window opens and runs a report on that table...
This could be practical since a user that started the procedure doesn't have to wait for it to complete in order to click another button to see the result. This is just one possible example.

I have recently started having this problem in PSE8. The Adobe workaround
did work, but I don't fancy having to re register each time I use it.
What I have discovered is that it's nothing to do with the image metadata as it occurs before any image is opened.
It SEEMS to only occur if you use file/open with to open an image in the editor - IE start PSE with that command.
If you close elements down, and start it using programs/PSE/Elements (or your desktop shortcut) - the panorama feature magically works.
Each time I've opened the editor 'automatically' using image/open with, it seems to create the problem.
Hope this helps

Adobe Acrobat Pro freezing on duplex printing

In adobe acrobat pro X when printing 2 or more pages duplexed on a Canon iR-adv c5045/5051 adobe acrobat freezes and crashes and the job never makes it to the printer, on adobe reader x free edition this is not hte case and prints without a problem. any information on this would be great. thanks

You mean there is an entry in the dock that doesn't work but it works OK from LaunchPad or Applications? Sounds as if you have an old or out of date thing in the dock. Just remove it and put the working Acrobat back. The dock is ENTIRELY under your control; Acrobat doesn't put itself there or remove itself.
