Acrobat Pro 9 will not print to printer in OS X 10.7

I have a new MacbookPro that came with Lion already installed. I installed a new copy of Acrobat 9 Pro from the OEM CD. All functions including printing to my Brother Laser printer and Canon inkjet worked. I installed the Lion 10.7.2 update and I can no longer print pdf on either printer. Other apps print fine. I get "Error" message under "Status" in printer dialogue box. I now have OS X 10.7.2 and Acrobat 9.4.6 installed. I cannot print pdf files to my printers. Latest drivers for both printers. Printers work fine with all other apps. I tried several combinations of Acrobat and Lion reinstalls. Nothing works. Any insight will be greatly appreciated.

I've been having a similar problem with Acrobat Pro 9 and 10.6.8, using a Brother MFC 3240C inkjet. This has been going on about a week, since the last ink change. As a half-remedy, I can print pdf's using the "Print As Image" option, reached from the Acrobat print window under Advanced options. I can also print pdf's using Preview.
Are you able to Print As Image or print with Preview?
I had been thinking of upgrading to 10.7, but I don't want to make the situation worse.
In any case, with Acrobat Pro 9 and also Acrobat Reader 10, the 3240C print window and display shows everything normal and data moving to the printer, and it makes noises like it's printing, but it spits out blank sheets.
I had the same response you did out of AppleCare. They said they didn't think it was an Apple problem.

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.

Windows 7 Pro will not restart if printer on.

Hello,
When clicking restart, Windows 7 Pro will not restart with either hp printer (L7680 or C309a) powered on. The screen just stays on 'Starting Windows'. Windows will continue to load after powering down which ever printer is powered on.
This problem just started. Never happened before. I could always click restart with no problem before.
Any help?
This question was solved.

Hey joe_do,
I see you are having an issue with the boot sequence of your Windows 7 Pro computer when either of your 2 HP printers are powered on. How are these 2 printers connected with this PC?
It sounds like the devices may be connected USB and somehow the boot sequence for the computer has set priority for USB over the internal HDD.

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.

2014 MacBook Pro will not connect to printer/scanner

Hello All,
My 2014 MacBook Pro is not picking up my wireless printer (HP LaserJet Pro MFP M127fw). Even when I connect the printer to the computer it doesn't pick it up so that I can scan documents. Printing is fine - I can't scan anything.
Thanks in advance for the help,

Acrobat Pro will not install on my PC..

Error Msg. "Acrobat Installer encountered an unexpected failure. Please try again. If it continues to fail, contact Adobe Support."
I've tried several times over the past week to install, but still the same result. Is there a number I can call. I'm paying for software that I cant ultimately use at this point. Thanks in advance. SuSheela

Hey,
Anti-virus software can sometimes slowdown the installation process. If you disable your anti-virus during installation, you can re-enable it on completion of installation process.
Please try disabling it and also let me know from where are you trying to download Acrobat pro (what version)?

Adobe Acrobat Pro will not open

I recently purchased and installed some programs from the creative suite on my computer. All worked well for a few months but now for some reason adobe acrobat refuses to open. I have tried using the "Open PDF with..." option as well as opening from the start menu. Nothing seems to happen; no error message or anything it just does not open.
I am running windows 7 64-bit os on a lenovo w530 laptop. The computer is almost new and lighting fast so it's not an issue of just being really slow.
I would uninstall, clean, and reinstall but I'm not sure where the install file is and I believe I installed all of the creative suite at once.
Anybody have any ideas?

Acrobat Pro XI Mac won't print a .pdf file, but Apple Preview will print correctly

Hello,
I have Acrobat Pro XI for Mac. recently I've run into pdf files that will show the document on screen ok, show up on print preview screen ok, but when I send it to a printer I either get:
1. no printout... the document passes through the printer queue ok, but nothing comes out (no blank paper, nothing). no data seems to even reach the printer/print server. no error. the print job basically vanishes into thin air like the job was never sent
2. prints out with all the characters of a text substituted with squares (again, no error. just prints squares instead of text)
But when I print the same document using Apple's Preview program on the same machine, the file prints out fine.
I experience this problem with two different Macs, with two different OS versions. Again both machines will print the .pdf file fine using Apple Preview, but not with Acrobat Pro XI.
I've searched for this problem, but no one seems to have this problem. I've tried just printing one page, etc., and no difference (won't print, or print wrong using Acrobat, but prints fine using Preview)
the files are typically sent via e-mail from a vendor, or a web downloaded form (invoice, forms filled out. some are secure, some are not). and these are from multiple sources.
Any ideas what might be the problem, and how to fix this?
system:
Mac Pro (early 2008) and MacBook Pro (mid-2011)
MacOS 10.8.4 and 10.6.8 (multiple computers have this same problem)
Acrobat Pro XI, 11.0.04
printer: HP LaserJet 5MP (yes.. old.. but it works) via HP JetDirect + print server on LAN

I just found this solution on another board, I tried it (I removed the same file listed below) and it worked for me....
Safari won’t save or print PDFs: how to fix
:: Tuesday, January 29th, 2013 @ 5:29:46 am
:: Tags: Computers
If Safari won’t save or print PDFs (but views them without any problems), you probably have an Adobe PDF plug-in installed. In Safari, go to Help->Installed Plug-ins and do a search for “PDF.” If you have anything with “PDF” in it other than “WebKit built-in PDF,” that is probably the culprit.
On my computer, the problem was “AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin”. To remove it, I quit Safari, did a Spotlight search (Command-Option space) for that file name, and then dragged it to the trash. When I restarted Safari, I could print and save PDFs again. You can also manually find the plugins by going to the system “Library” folder (the one at the root of your hard disk, not in your user folder) and looking in the “Internet Plug-Ins” folder.
I’m on OS X 10.8.2, running Safari 6.0.2 (8536.26.17).

Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro do not open when printing a pdf document. Can anyone help?

Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro do not open when printing a pdf document, instead I open it with Adobe Reader X to be able to print.
Can anyone help?

Hi Edna,
It sounds like Adobe Reader X is your default PDF file handler. Launch Adobe Reader X. Choose Edit > Preferences > General. Click the 'Select Default PDF Handler' button at the bottom and choose Acrobat 9 from the drop-down menu. Click Apply, then OK.
Restart your computer. Acrobat 9 should now be your default PDF file handler again.

Adobe Pro - will not print word documents to pdf.. keeps crashing

Hello,
I have Acrobat Pro and when I try to print Word documents it says printing... and then crashes. The window to select the name of the pdf to print to never pops up. The Word program crashes and reopens. The print icon appears on the system tray and just says spooling.
I am using Word 07.
Acrobat Pro was working fine to print PDF's on this version of word for a few months then for some reason it just stopped.
When I print PDF's from existing PDF's it works fine.
I have tried to repair the program but it did not help.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Miguel

If you are having problems creating a PDF, there are two steps you should do FIRST
Go to the appropriate vendor web site and apply all updates to the program you are using (several recent messages have concerned problems with MS Office conversion, with the response that different versions of Office have different BUGS that must be fixed by a download from Microsoft - and MS Office products are not the only ones which may, from time to time, need to be updated to work properly)
Apply all updates IN NUMBER ORDER
