Acrobat 9 Pro - Forms Not Calculating on any MAC platform?

Neither basic calculations (multipying the value of two fields) or javascripted fields function on any MAC platform (so far tested MAC 10x and IPad).  Everything runs flawlessly on every PC tested.  Form is accurate, no javascript errors.  Replicating fields does work on the MAC (typing "NAME" into the field on page 1 correctly replicates the NAME field on page 2 & 3.)  Only the math seems to be an issue.  Help!!!

Wow, you are indeed correct.  Here is what we just discovered:
Snow Leopard (10.6.8)
If you open the file in READER it works fine.
If you open the file in PREVIEW nothing happens when you enter values in any QTY field.  When you close the file in PREVIEW you are presented with the option to save.  If you save the file it gets corrupted and will not display in READER.  If you do not save the file you can open it in READER and it works fine.
Lion (10.7.2)
If you open the file in READER it works fine.
If you open the file in PREVIEW nothing happens when you enter values in the QTY field.  When you close the file in PREVIEW you are NOT presented with the option to save.  The file somehow gets corrupted and will not display in READER.
I guess the bottom line is that interactive PDF forms are real challenges for MAC users.  At this point the only way to assure MAC users get a working file is to point them to a non-interactive form that they must print, manually fill out then scan or fax back to us.
Thank you so much for your help George.  This has been by far the quickest and smoothest problem resolution process I have experienced with literally any software manufacturer!  I'm less than pleased about the outcome, but your part worked beautifully and we all now know exactly what the problem is.

  • Clicking "Download now" on the "Download a free trial of Acrobat X Pro" is not working. Any help?

    Clicking "Download now" on the "Download a free trial of Acrobat X Pro" is not working. Any help?  I even opened an account and logged in and it still did not work.

    What?  I don't understand if you are asking me a question or telling me what to do.  I am using IE9 and when I clicked the "Download now" button, a new tab did not open or anything like that nor did another window open.

  • If my MAC book pro is not under warranty any more can i still send it back to apple to get it repaired

    If my MAC book pro is not under warranty any more can i still send it back to apple to get it repaired

    Yes, but you should consider this.
    A: Laptops usually last only about 4 years.
    So if you take your investment into the machine + add any software that can't be transferred to a new machine and divide that by 4, you'll get the per year value.
    Take that and estimate how many years of value you have left, then judge if the repair is going to be worth getting that remaining few years left or not.
    For instance if you have $2800 invested in a machine, that's $700 a year and it's 3 years old, that means it's likely to have only $700 of value left, so it makes little sense to spend a lot to get that remaining $700. Sell it for parts and apply the funds to a new machine.
    I suspect you upgraded a older machine to 10.7 and it likely killed it.

  • My Acrobat Pro will not open my PDF Files any suggestions?

    My acrobat pro does not open, anyone else out there with the same problem?

    Sherbear2359 (I believe that the US has the right to arm bears so I will be very nice.)
    My Adobe Acrobat stopped opening pdfs. Now in the past it was Windows 8.1 playing tricks by thinking that the Adobe software was a trial which expired
    Doesn't launch after 30 days | Installed as part of a CS6 suite Tried it and it worked.
    Tried the fix again now no change.
    I suspect that a Microsoft patch stuffed it up. They have had a few problems.
    I used Reader with open with but I want pdf to be opened by Adobe.

  • Acrobat Pro will not install

    Okay, excuse my lack of patience. But I have now called Adobe customer servic (in India, and I'm in the U.S.) three times now, and I have not resolved this issue! I am a Creative Cloud member, and my Adobe Acrobat Pro will NOT work. On top of that, the Adobe Application Manger is $%@ useless. I get errors constantly. I'm on Mac OS 10.8.1. My other Adobe software works. But Acrobat Pro has not worked at all since I purchase Creative Cloud a few months ago. At any point, if Adobe would like to fix this issue, that would be great. Like I said, I've already called three times in the last two months. And the low level tech support guys are useless. I spend an hour or two on the phone with them and the issue is NOT resolved.

    So, it totally appears as if it was a network issue. The corporate network where I work is quite likely the culprit. Where I was thrown off is that since I have admin rights on my computer, I can install software. But using Adobe Application Manager to install Adobe software wasn't working. And to make matters worse, there didn't appear to be any way to install Acrobat Pro for Mac without using AAM. The workaround that I used previously was to install the trial versions of Adobe software, and then just register them using my username and password. But the workaround for being able to install everything using AAM was to bring my computer home and download from my home network. Unfortunately, Adobe tech support didn't suggest this during the three times that I called them. But it doesn't matter now, problem is resolved.

  • Acrobat Pro XI not opening

    I am running CC Suite on a MacBook Pro ver. 10.8.5. I was updating acrobat when I got an error that the uddate did not complete. When I returned to the desktop, the icon had changed and I could no longer drop a file to acrobat. I ran Cleaner and it completed and still no change. I then decided to uninstall acrobat and reinstall. After running the reinstall, it indicated that it completed so I started the reinstall process. About 2/3rds through the install it gave an error that there was already a version of acrobat on my system. Although distiller still works, both have an icon that has chnged to a circle with a line through it. Whenn I try to execute acrobat I get the following error..."You can't open the application "Adobe Acrobat Pro.app" because it may be damaged or inconplete." Any help would be appreciated as I use acrobat everday. Thanks!

    It seems that when you are uninstalling the application the uninstall is not happening correctly. Some files may be remaining on your system. please try following steps:
    1. Quit all applications and restart your machine
    2. Uninstall the Acrobat Pro
    3. Check if any of the following file/folder is present or not. If you find any of these files/folders present delete them manually:
         a) /Applications/Adobe Acrobat XI Pro/
         b) /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat/
         c) /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat 11 AMT/
         d) /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat 11 Helper Frameworks/
         e) /Library/Internet Plug-ins/AdobePDFViewer.plugin
         f) /Library/Internet Plug-ins/AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin
         g) /Library/PDF Services/Save as Adobe PDF.app
         h) /Library/Automator/Save as Adobe PDF.action
    4. Delete the following preferences folders:
         a) ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat/
         b) ~/Library/Caches/Acrobat/
         c) ~/Library/Caches/Acrobat/
         d) ~/Library/Preferences/Acrobat Distiller Prefs
         e) ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe/Acrobat/
    Here ~ represents your home directory. Empty your trash, Restart the machine and then reinstall the Acrobat.
    you should not get any error now and it should install correctly. Hope this helps.

  • Adobe Acrobat XI will NOT read aloud any pdf files

    Ever since I upgraded to Marvericks, Adobe Acrobat XI will NOT read aloud any pdf files. How can I fix this. It previously worked fine.
    I create tagged pdf files in InDesign to be compatible with 508 accessibility standards.The files read aloud on a Mac with OS X Lion but not on Mavericks.

    no, still no resolution. It is very frustrating. I did have one 8 page document that it will read the first page but nothing else.

  • Ipod not recognized by any MAC computer

    I have a 20gb IPOD 2nd generation which has worked fine until recent itunes and tiger software upgrade. Now Finder nor utilities (ipod updater) nor itunes will recognize the ipod when connected with firewire-- even in disc mode. Ipod is not recognized by any MAC computer (several tried in Apple store). I ran diagnostics and everything checks out on the ipod. Please help.

    When I got a different charger later that night, my Ipod was charging but a message popped up saying "USB device not recognized".

  • Acrobat Pro XI not working at all in Windows7 64bit - tried everything

    I am using Acrobat Pro XI not working at all in Windows7 64bit - tried everything. About a month ago I built new computer. Acrobat worked fine.

  • Adobe acrobat pro is not supported on this architecture

    adobe acrobat pro is not supported on this architecture i have cs4 me

    I had this problem yesterday. An odd thing had happened, and a folder within the FCP had been corrupted somehow and was broadcasting that it was a .mov file, when it was in fact a folder.
    The folder in question was the "MacOS" folder within the FCP application file. I created a new folder, moved the contents of the corrupted folder into the new folder, deleted the corrupted folder, and renamed the new folder MacOS.
    And it works again.
    Thanks to Zebulun, Jon Chappell, and Shane Ross for helping find a solution...

  • Acrobat Pro V7 not opening pdfs

    Acrobat Pro V7 not opening pdfs - just started happening. are there some preferances that can be trashed etc? don't tell me this will require a full reload?

    ok I tried that but still get;
    "a required component was not found. PLease restore the Adobe Acrobate folder from your original CD."
    Thing is, I recently moved and cannot find the Adobe CD.
    AppleJack seems like a neat little application. Can it also check for duplicate files? I DL'ed a Dup Finder program once but it seems tooo convoluted to use. I couldent tell which were nesssesary files and which were simply taking up space.
