Acrobat Pro hangs on sign in

Using Windows 7
Acrobat Pro XI trial is just installed, day 1.
I double click to open Acrobat Pro.
It asks me to accept a trial user agreement.
I accept.
It asks me to sign in with my Adobe user ID.
I enter it and sign in.
Acrobat hangs on the loading swirly.
I wait, must close it through Task Manager.
This is my first time installing and using Acrobat Pro.  I tried restarting, then I tried using Run as Administrator.  Nothing changes.
I only need Acrobat to save a form I made through FormsCentral for an unusual specific job, hence a trial and not license.
Help is greatly appreciated.  If I figure this out, I will post the solution.
Thank you.

I left the loading sign alone and after 15 minutes it finally started doing something.
Lesson: Let your program output some sort of log of activity or show delay expectancy, else it just looks broken.  15 minutes on a wait animation, seriously.

  • Acrobat Pro 9 e-sign and SharePoint 2010 integration

    Hello,
    I cannot get an Acrobat Pro 9 created document with electronic signature fields to open in SharePoint 2010 so it can be checked out, signed, saved and checked back in. I have seen discussions on this subject from 2011, but have not come across any solutions. Has there been a fix to this yet?

    There are several different scenarios that happen. I am testing the document before I send it out the links again to have users esign. Not every user has Pro 9. Some only have Reader 8. I am uploading the unsigned document created in Pro 9 to a SharePoint 2010 site. There are 10 different signature fields – none of them are locked. When I go to the document to sign under the “edit” function in SharePoint I get an error that says object label badly formatted when trying to save, or I am able to sign once and save, and when I got to test signature number 2 it cannot open the document. Every time I upload it to SharePoint I have to enable Reader 8 usage rights. Sometime it lets me do it, and sometimes it says “this document could not be reader enabled.” It does not seem to be stable. Sometimes it works and then just a few minutes later it has problems. Please advise. Thanks.

  • Acrobat Pro hangs up when opening files

    When opening any pdf, Acrobat Pro displays page 1 but then becomes unresponsive for a minute or more.  I run on a laptop and find that turning my wireless off returns program control.  Manually checking for updates tells me there are none available.  Please tell me how to stop this obnoxious behavior.

    Thank you for that answer.  I checked, and mine were turned off.  However, I ran a program earlier today that may have turned it off.  I’ll wait a few days and see if the problem persists before marking this problem corrected.  But I really appreciate your email!  Thanks.

  • Does Acrobat Pro 9.5.5 work with Yosemite 10.10.2

    I am running an iMac (20-inch, Mid 2007) with a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, and 4GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, with an ATI Radeon graphics card. After upgrading to Yosemite 10.10.2, Adobe Acrobat Pro hangs when it is asked to do anything other than display a PDF.  Is my Acrobat incompatible with Yosemite?  Things were working so well...

  • Download acrobat pro

    I purchased the acrobat pro subscription and when I originally installed it when I tried to open it the program would crash.  So I thought I would delete the program and try to start over.  now I get the error of the program being a trial.  So how do I download the program under my subscription and make it work.

    You don't need to download the app again. Just SIGN IN to Acrobat Pro. Once signed in, it knows you have subscribed, and the trial is unlocked.

    Hi higi97,
    How are you connected to the internet? Are you behind a particularly secure corporate firewall? Are you on Mac or Windows? Do you have any anti-malware software running on your machine that may be preventing applications other than your browser from connecting to the internet?
    You may try to follow the steps below:
    1.Close the Creative Cloud application.
    2.Navigate to the OOBE folder.
    Windows: [System drive]:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
    Mac OS: /Users/[user name]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE folder
    3.Delete the opm.db file.
    4.Launch Creative Cloud.
    Let us know if that helps,
    Regards,

    I have upgraded to CS5 and acrobat pro 9....
    When I print a test page from the PDF printer it starts fine but then hangs when checking fonts?!?!
    I have removed the software and reinstalled twice now and the same occurs...
    Any advice anyone?

    Bernd,
    thanks for the input... It helped a lot!
    I tracked down a few corrupt fonts and now things seem much better but not quite perfect yet....
    Distiller now opens fine but when I ran the test page from the PDF printer I got the follwoing error in the log file:
    Does it give any clues?

  • Enable Adobe Reader to Digitally Sign PDF created with Acrobat Pro 9

    Hi All,
    I am trying to figure out how to enable adobe readers to digitally sign PDFs I create. I currently have Acrobat Pro 9.
    Customer Support said that I need to save it as a "Reader Extended" format, but I cant find this option anywhere.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Matt

    Thanks Ben,
    Unfortunately, that video is for acrobat X or above and I cant find the "save as reader extended" option in Acrobat Pro 9.
    Can this be done from this version?
    Thanks again

  • In Acrobat Pro XI, can I limit the form I created to "fill in and print," with no saving or signing?

    I created a fillable form from a word doc using Acrobat Pro XI. 
    When I look at the form in Acrobat Pro, I see the following at the top of the form:
    If I look at the form on a computer running just Adobe Reader, this is what displays at the top:
    I just want users to fill out and print this form.  The instruction that Adobe Reader is giving is confusing.  Can I modify those instructions, or change the file properties of my form somehow to limit to "fill out and print?"
    I don't recall encountering this before in earlier versions of Acrobat.

    Finally figured it out -- if I view the form directly in Adobe Reader (over our network), I see the confusing message about "Click 'Sign' to fill out..."
    BUT, if I open the form within a web browser (IE, Firefox, etc.), I see the usual message: "Please fill out the following form. You cannot save data typed into this form. Please print..."
    It is doing what I expected; I just wasn't viewing it in the usual manner.  Users will be seeing this form via a web browser, so problem solved.

  • Acrobat X Pro hangs when making PDF. Using on Windows 7 64. Just started hanging. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Installed update. Once it hangs, must go into crtl, alt, delete to force close.

    Acrobat X Pro hangs when making PDF. Using on Windows 7 64. Just started hanging. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Installed update. Once it hangs, must go into crtl, alt, delete to force close.

    As a debugging step, try printing to the Adobe PDF printer. If that fails, repeat with print-to-file selected. Assuming the print succeeds, open the file in Distiller to complete the creation of the PDF. If you get the PDF, then check to see if AcroTray is properly working as a background task.

  • Mac Acrobat X Pro hangs after InDesign CS6 form export but opens in Preview

    Anyone else having this issue?

    I guess no one can understand this... I just had the worst tech support "chat" form Adobe I have ever had... theu guy started steering me to make an EPS file to distill. That won't help for interactive. I can export to PRINT PDFs. I can export to INTERACTIVE PDFs. Today, for the first time I had to make a form in InDesign CS6 using the new form tools. I can export the file but Acrobat X Pro hangs trying to open it. I just mentioned Preview to say that I CAN open the file in Preview. I'm just trying to eliminate things. I KNOW Preview is not the right tool...

  • Can't sign Acrobat Pro 6 PDF with Reader 8

    I have many documents created with Acrobat Pro 6. Some have signature fields (forms). My manager has Reader 8. When she opens the documents, the "sign" capability is not available. She clicks in the signature fields and nothing happens.
    From the File->Properties view, Security tab, Reader 8 shows "Signing: Not Allowed". From the same view in Pro 6, I see "Signing: Allowed".
    Is there something (short of buying Pro 8 ) I can do to my PDFs so my manager can sign them using Reader 8?

  • Doc Signing disabled in adobe reader but enabled in Acrobat Pro X1

    Hello there,
    I have used Acrobat Pro X1 Trial to create a PDF document with a Signature field.  When I view the Properties and Security of the doc I can see that Signing - Is Allowed.
    When I open the same document in Adobe Reader X the document security properties allow form fill & printing but not signing.
    http://tv.adobe.com/watch/acrobat-x/how-to-digitally-sign-a-document-with-adobe-reader/ 
    This tutorial shows how to change settings using Acrobat Pro 10.  The same File Save As options are not available in X1.  Am I missing something in Acrobat Pro X1?
    Your help would be very much appreaciated!!
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Tim,
    There are a couple of things at play here.
    First, adding a digital signature is always allowed in Acrobat, but only allowed in Reader if the PDF file has been Reader enabled for signing. To use Acrobat XI to Reader Enable a PDF file for signing you would:
    Select the File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools menu item
    Click the Save Now button on the Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader dialog
    Select a file name and location, and then click the Save button on the Save As dialog
    That would allow the file to be signed when opened in Reader.
    However, I did mention that there are two items of consideration. If you are using a Pre-release (beta) version of Acrobat then signing will not work in a release version of Acrobat or Reader. When you said you are using a "trial" version I just want to make sure you mean the released version of Acrobat XI being run under the trial license where you don't have a serial number as opposed to a beta version that made available prior to the release date.
