Acrobat 9 Pro has started showing incorrect black areas

My Acrobat 9 Pro (Win 7) has started displaying black areas where normal content should be, The same PDF files display correctly with Adobe Reader. This same
Acrobat worked fine for a long time, but a few months ago began displaying black instead of some content.
Sorry, but I couldn't find a "community" that fit this issue so I put it under Installatiohn & Update. Feel free to change the secton.

Hey,
With the end of support for Acrobat 9, it might not be possible to find updates there.
You can access Acrobat 9 updates for the version 9.5.5. via the following link:
For Windows: "ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/win"
Hope this helps.

My adobe acrobat XI Pro has been constantly freezing when I open documents.

My adobe acrobat XI Pro has been constantly freezing when I open documents. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the program, changed some settings based on community threads, nothing is working. I have to close the document, open it back up and wait at least 60 seconds before I can do anything. I use Adobe pdfs for everything this is very bad. I am using MS Office 365, and Adobe CC on Windows 8.1.

Hi Kate,
Please refer to this KB doc. for the solution Application, file icons change to Acrobat/Reader icon

My macbook pro has started running slowly! Any ideas?

My macbook pro has started running slowly. Particularly the internet (firefox and safari). I have tried repairing the disk / verifying the disk and the permissions via Disk Utility, and have also tried uninstalling and re-installing firefox, and updating the software (all up to date). None of this has helped.
The old Dell laptop we have is running faster than my mac!
I also have Parallels Desktop Installed with Windows 7, although this has never caused a problem in the past...
I am running with Mac OS X, Version 10.6.8, processor 2.66Ghz Intel Core Duo, and 4GB memory (it's normally lightning fast!).
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

This is a known problem with Parallels and the recent update for 10.6.8. You do not need to actually have Parallels running to experience the problem and there is nothing in Activity Monitor that would indicate the issue is related to Parallels. You can find the explanation on Parallels site. They have put out an update to correct the problem:

After updating the iphone 4s's software it has starting showing 'no sim'.

After updating the latest software IOS 5.1 for iphone 4s, it has started showing 'no sim'. Not getting any service now? Please help!!

To be honest not being able to send or recieve messages and data is a carrier issue, not a phone issue since u said that your calls are working, if i were you my first course of action would be to get a new sim card from virgin mobile, or to restore the device as new one more time, if you restore the device as new AND get a new sim card from your carrier and those features still dont work, i would take the device to an apple store

Licensing for Acrobat 9 Pro has quit working - How to fix this

I just subscribed to the Photography plan that gives me access to Photoshop CC and Lightroom 5. I already own Design Creative Suite CS3 and Adobe Acrobat Pro (9). When I downloaded the application manager and began to download PS & LR it showed all applications and most listed as the option "Try" and on Acrobat XI Pro it indicated "Up To Date." Once I downloaded and installed the PS & LR applications I tried to open a .pdf to do some research. I got the following message as Acrobat Pro tried to open:
Licensing for this product has stopped working.
You cannot use this product at this time. You must repair the
problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or
contacting your IT adminstrator or Adobe customer support
for help.
I uninstalled Acrobat XI and Acrobat 9 from my computer, restarted it, then re-installed Acrobat Pro 9 from the CS3 installation disk. When done I tried to open a .pdf and got the same message. I restarted the computer and tried again and got the same message. I then did a Verify Permissions & Repair Permissions and Checked the Disc. (BTW this is all on a Mac with Snow Leopard 10.6.8 o/s. I have the 10.8 Mountain Lion o/s disk on the way, so I can't install/use LR 5 until that is done. anyway...)
Since it is Sunday and there is NO Adobe Customer Support and there is no IT department in my house, what do you think I should do? As an aside, the initial download/install for Photoshop CC hung at 44% installed. I did online chat with Bhartha at Adobe and he managed to do nothing but make my system worse. So I got away from him and repaired the damage he caused when I did the "screen share" operation with him. IM not so HO, Adobe's support system, what's the technical term?, SUCKS. If I had any good options to Photoshop and Lightroom I would use them, but for now I'd be stuck with something worse, like GIMP and Aperture. Okay, that's my rant about the sub-standard approach Adobe has to support. Apparently they feel that once you have their product then you're stuck with it and if they give you crappy service, so what? I hopefully await the day when Adobe gets bought and ruined by Microsoft. Like the old days when the phone company was one big corporation. Their motto: We Don't Care. We Don't Have To. Adobe seems to have adopted that idea.
Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem

Everything was fine until I downloaded & installed PS CC. I had a copy of Acrobat 9 I had purchased. There was also a folder for AA XI I had previously downloaded as a Cloud member, but had cancelled that and did not use AA XI. Everything in CS worked fine for the last 2-3 years, until this download. As I stated, the download "hung" on install the first time at 44% install & I contacted Adobe via the chat line. Why a download of Photoshop CC would wreak havoc on my functional Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro (or XI Pro, for that matter), is something they couldn't explain, and they couldn't fix. They provided no help whatsoever...in point of fact the tech guy didn't actually seem to know how to navigate on a Mac. First thing he did, using the "Screen Share" process, was open the Parallels partition and boot Windows. And since this problem had nothing to do with my Windows/Parallel partition it was clear he didn't have a clue. Everything he did after that just confirmed his ineptitude, right up until I turned the computer off to get rid of him.
At any rate, I used the step-by-step procedures delineated in 3 other forum discussion threads which all said do the same thing. I did. It did not help. Of course I will call Adobe tomorrow and I'm sure they will not have any solution either. Which is why I unsubscribed to the Cloud account. Every time they had updates for any application the installs would fail and then the previously installed programs wouldn't work and I would have to uninstall & reinstall EVERYTHING. That was their solution. The brilliant minds of Adobe Tech Support in action. "Did you try powering if off and then back on...?"
At risk of being seen as a person with an actual opinion based on experience, I will say that ADOBE TECH PERSONNEL ARE MORONS. Of course they're in Kuala Lumpur or some other seemingly exotic place (unless, of course, that's where you are, in which case Des Moines, Iowa seems exotic), so maybe they don't get very good training on the products they are supposed to support. Adobe doesn't care about good support. They already have your money and they pretty much have a monopoly on a few of their niches (Photoshop, Lightroom). Any place you can find another manufacturer's product that competes with Adobe, for example Corell's Painter vs. Adobe Illustrator, the other manufacturer's product is ALWAYS BETTER. ALWAYS. So I am stuck with Adobe products due to occupational need, and stuck with their sub-standard support. Whether by design or omission, ADOBE DOES NOT SUPPORT THEIR PRODUCTS. In point of fact, I DESPISE these clowns. I just am forced to deal with them against my desires and better judgment. Probably why homicide is illegal.

Cannot Get Acrobat X Pro to Start

I've istalled Adobe Acrobat X Pro on my Dell Precision T7400 with 20 gigs of ram running the 64 bit version of Windows 7 Ultimate N edition. When I click on the icon to start the program, I get a momentary hourglass icon and then nothing happens. I've updated to version 10.1.3, I believe it is, but the problem has not changed. Thanks for any help that can be offered.

Can't pin Acrobat X Pro to Start menu

My version of Acrobat is 10.1.0, installed in early July. I find that Pin to Start menu is not listed as an option on either the Acrobat X Pro entry or the Acrobat Distiller X entry in the Programs menu.
With my prior version I had Acrobat pinned to the Start menu. It is an available option for other programs including Adobe Photoshop Elements.
The Properties of the Acrobat X Pro entry say Target type = Application, Target location is blank, Target is Acrobat X Pro grayed out, Start in is blank, Shortcut key = None, Run = Normal window, Comment = blank, Find Target and Change Icon are grayed out, the Advanced Properties box says "Choose the advanced properties you want for this shortcut" and both options are grayed out but "Run in separate memory space" is checked.
Added:
I notice that for Elements in the Programs menu, Norton Security is listed in the right-click options, but not for the Acrobat entries.

Dave, since you have been kind enough to try to help, can you tell me how to take advantage of the information that I see above my posting in the Adobe forum? I'm not seing it now as I compose this, but to the right of the dark magenta text that says the question status is still not Answered, there were two icons with notes. One said that there is already 1 correct answer (somewhere in the database I assume) and the other said that there are 2 helpful answers. Neither one of the icons or captions was a live link, so I didn't know what to do with them.
Thanks in advance.

My 2011 13'' MacBook Pro has started to run really slow.

I have a 2011 13" MacBook pro and this week it has started to run really slow. Specifically it takes about 3 to 4X longer to do just about every task. The only thing ive done recently was update from Lion 10.7.3 to 10.7.4 and a Safari update. Are there any suggestions on what I should do to fix it or on what could be the potential cause?

Things That Can Keep Your Computer From Slowing Down
If your computer seems to be running slower here are some things you can do:
Boot into Safe Mode then repair your hard drive and permissions:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions Pre-Lion
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
Repair the Hard Drive - Lion
Boot from your Lion Recovery HD. When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Restart your computer normally and see if this has helped any. Next do some maintenance:
Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
For situations Disk Utility cannot handle the best third-party utility is Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible.
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or Lion and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems. For more about malware see Macintosh Virus Guide.
I would also recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc.
For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion.
When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand.
Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
Carbon Copy Cloner
Data Backup
Deja Vu
SuperDuper!
SyncTwoFolders
Synk Pro
Synk Standard
Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
Additional suggestions will be found in Mac maintenance Quick Assist.
Referenced software can be found at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate.
Additional Hints
Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
Add more RAM. If your computer has less than 2 GBs of RAM and you are using OS X Leopard or later, then you can do with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion work much better with 4 GBs of RAM than their system minimums. The more concurrent applications you tend to use the more RAM you should have.
Always maintain at least 15 GBs or 10% of your hard drive's capacity as free space, whichever is greater. OS X is frequently accessing your hard drive, so providing adequate free space will keep things from slowing down.
Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Often this problem occurs because of a corrupted cache or preferences file or an attempt to write to a corrupted log file.
If nothing here seems to help, then reinstall Lion:
Reinstalling Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

My MacBook Pro has started to shutdown by itself recently, what could cause this?

I need some help, please. My MacBook Pro {running on 10.7.5} has started to become sluggish recently, and just yesterday it shutdown itself twice. I have noticed that when am surfing the web, openning another application or especially using Yahoo Mail, the cursor turns into the color wheel and just spins for a while. I ran Sophos Anti-Virus and nothing was found. I did have a problem with memory a while ago, but then I just moved things over to the external HD, and everything ran smoothly again. My first thought is that it is a problem with the memory again, but the self-shutdown got me worried. Any thoughts? Thanks

Nor will it, so abandon that line of thinking.
After it restarted, did you see a dialog box resembling this one:
If so, next time it occurs click Report...
Before you send it to Apple, copy the text of the report. Paste it in a reply.
Remove or obscure any personal information, should it appear.

My 17" macbook pro has started to shut itself down or restart for no reason. Can anyone tell me why?

Today for no apparant reason, my macbook pro has been restarting itself.
Has happened 8 times so far, very frustrating since I keep losing whatever I was working on at the time.
L/top runs windows xp because 2 programs I use for work ( CAD and Mapinfo ) don't work on Macs.
Anyone got any bright ideas why this is happening.
Annoying for a PC that cost me best part of $4k.
