Acrobat Pro X no longer starts -- even after trying re-installing

OK. Opened a *.pdf file. Saw the file open a for a little bit, then the program closed by itself. Tried to re-start and it wouldn't. Re-boot the computer, no. tried to access it different ways. Nothing, not even a error message or any kind. Downloaded the program installation file, and repaired the installation. Still didn't work. When back to the CS6 installation files and tried re-installing. Still it won't start. Other CS6 programs (Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.), all still work. what's going on and how can I get it working again? OS is Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.
Thanks.

Here is what I believe to be the problem. It is not that Acrobat is broken, it is that you cannot get it out of trial mode. Even though you have a valid license for a suite of apps such as CS6 Design and Web Premium, and have activated the suite, after 30 days Acrobat stops launching because the 30 day trial has expired. You do not have to reinstall Acrobat if this happens. If you go into another app such as Photoshop and "Deactivate" the program, once you re-launch and re-activate Photoshop, Acrobat will start working again. Unfortunately this still is not removing Acrobat from Trial mode and 30 days later it will stop launching again. You then have to repeat the deactivate - reactive process of Photoshop to fix the problem yet again for another 30 days fo use. Very frustrating.

I have a DVD Acrobat Pro 9. I upgraded laptops and trying to install but the DVD is not readable. How can I get a new DVD or Download Acrobat Pro 1. The product is registered and I have the serial number. PS: Contacting Adobe on this issue is impossible..

Download AA 9 Pro from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html. Make a new backup for your archive. You might also take the DVD to your library to see if it is a drive problem. You might also carefully clean the DVD with water and soap (do not use anything that would scratch the surface or you have destroyed it for sure) and see if that solves the problem. This is particularly an issue if you have finger prints or other crud on the DVD. However, it could also be a bad drive as I mentioned. Hopefully the download solves your problem in any case (I would backup the download to CD and/or backup HD).

MacBook Pros Not waking up properly even after clean re-install

I just bought a used 17" Quad core MBP with 16gb of ram. I installed a samsung 512gb 840 Pro series SSD, transferred all my info from my old dual core i7 17" MBP. So both are 10.8.4.
The new MBP started not waking up from sleep. The keyboard would like up and the light in the front would indicate that it has started, but then it doesn't show anything on the screen.
Ultimately, I decided, i'll just do a clean re-install of OS 10.8 because maybe something went wrong in the migration. Now, with a fresh install when i wake it from sleep it seems to open as if it ran out of power and is doing a restore power up. The screen opens at half opacity and I get some progress dots and its back quickly. But it's still strange. The only thing installed on the computer at all is adobe production suite.
Odd thing is, that the OLD computer, the DUAL core i7 17" MBP is also not waking up from sleep properly now. It also has a new 128gb SSD drive It BTW. It doesn't fully wake up, so I have to hold down the power button, shut it down then turn it back on again. And again it does a recovery startup.
so now I have TWO computers having almost the same issues, and one of them has a fresh install. So what could the problem be? totally diffferent hardware. Does 10.8 not like SSD's in 17" MBP's?
any tips would be apreciated.

One last detail, connectivity through my iPhone's hotspot works completely fine. No idea if that is related / helpful in any way.

Hi Patrick,
Can you please mention the version of Adobe Acrobat that you are using and on what OS version. Also mention whether this problem has started recently and was running fine earlier or is it a fresh install and has never worked for you.
Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the product after you started facing this issue.

terminate that download and restart.
if you have a recurrent problem, use a different (wired) connection and/or a different browser and/or a download manager.

MacBook Pro won't boot after trying to install 10.7.3 update. Start up stalls at Apple logo and spinning gear.

MacBook Pro won't boot after trying to install 10.7.3 update. Start up stalls at Apple logo and spinning gear. Computer won't even start in safe mode.

My daughter's MacBook Pro was doing exactly the same thing. I don't know if it had anything to do with the latest update. She called me about a week ago saying that her MacBook began running slower by the day . She then called me Friday and told me that it wouldn't get past the gray screen and the gear just kept on spinning. I did everything I could over the phone including Safe mode which it wouldn't go into and thought maybe it was the hard drive. She took it to the Apple store. Originally, they also thought it was the hard drive. It ended up being a corrupted operating system (Lion). Apple genius simply re-installed Lion and she's back up and running. Good thing she backed up right before it crapped out. She'll be restoring everything tonight. Don't know if re-installing Lion will help your situation, but it did the trick for my daughter.

Logic Pro 8 crashing on start up after reinstalling on old mac hard drive

I have an Imac G5 1.8Ghz with 2GB of ram which I had a larger hard drive fitted a few years ago, but for some reason after not using it for a month or so, the hard drive decided to pack up, so I had the original hard drive which was smaller but still worked which I refitted to get my Imac going again. So I had to reinstall Logic Pro 8 onto that drive but after all the install was completed, tried to start logic and it just comes up with a box that say "The application Logic Pro quit unexpectedly" with options to reopen, report or quit. Well it did the same when retried many times. I dont have my Yamaha N12 connected as its on the new Imac so Im just using the internal audio inputs and outputs. But I cant even get it to start. I have tried doing updates etc, I dont have any other plug ins that I know of and have tried the help forums etc and tried everything else I can find but still no go. Please help.............cheers Mike

Macbook pro freezes for no reason even after installing 10.8 on a brand new hard drive

Macbook pro freezes for no reason even after installing 10.8 on a brand new hard drive.
Tried to reset pram, smc, nvram.
Tried installing new RAM.
Tried installing new hard drive.
You should know that my internal drive is installed in a cheap external case and plugged in a USB 2.0 port because i am waiting for a new hard drive cable.all
Yep all good things happened to me...i don't know if all these problems are linked, ahh and also my trackpad is behaving very erraticaly sometimes, it's like it is possessed by a ghost. My computer is not under warranty anymore so i'd like to avoid a trip to the Apple store but i'm close to doing just that.
Any help appreciated...

It's diagnostic software. It's supposed to help you find problems. I don't think anyone is making any software yet that fixes hardware problems.
That said, the two comments:

would lead me to think it's the logic board. On older MacBook Pro's both the USB I/O ports and the keyboard/trackpad are fed out of an integrated USB controller integrated into the South Bridge I/O controller. On newer models, the USB ports come out of an integrated North/South bridge controller and the keyboard/trackpad are handled by an SMC controller, which itself interfaces with the I/O controller. All of these items are on the logic board, and they're all unrepairable.
...unless of course the "internal drive [that] is installed in a cheap external case" is itself causing the problems. Another thing to try might be a different USB port, if you haven't done so already.
I didn't know the price for Scannerz went up. I could have sworn I only paid 30-some bucks for it. Maybe it was on sale at the time. I don't remember.
In any case, good luck.

I completely uninstalled everything associated with firefox in synaptic package manager, then reinstalled the latest version of firefox again.
Evidently one of the add-ons was preventing firefox from opening, not sure which one though. I hope this will help someone else. Firefox is working now.

Acrobat Pro X Failure to start

I regularly find that Acrobat Pro X fails to start when I double click an acrobat file or double click the program itself. The fix for this problem is to download and run Acrofix.exe. But it appears that this fix is of a temporary nature as about every month I have to run that fix again.
Is there a permanent fix for this problem?

I'd like to second that this is still a problem. Just popped up for me today. Last time I saw it was several months ago.
Running 10.1.9

Sounds like a bug in Macbook pro. May be bug in the cable? Everything bugged up on you.

Delete any items in System Preferences > Users & Groups (or Accounts) > Login Items
Same for HD > Library > StartupItems
Not enough free space on the startup disk can slow the system down.
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon on your Deskop.
Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available.
Make sure there's a minimum of 15% free disk space.
