Acrobat Pro XI Crashing Constantly. Tried Everything to no avail.

Hi all. I'm having mega-frustrating problems with Acrobat 11.0.10. It's constantly crashing, particularly when trying to combine PDFs.
I have tried absolutely everything (reinstalling, using the cleaner tool etc) to no avail.
I was originally using Acrobat 9 when the problem started, I thought that updating to 11 would rectify the problem... no Dice.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm Running Windows 7 64bit.

Hello.
I'm having similar problem with one of my customers using Acrobat. It keeps constantly crashing and nothing else but re-install seems to work. After reinstall it works fine for couple of days.
I have screenshot of the appcrash, logs for adobearm, amt3, oobelib and pdapp.
Is this forum good way find a solution for this quite irritating issue?

Adobe Acrobat Pro X Crashes when Trying to Scan to PDF - Epson Perfection v30 on Windows 7

I am running Windows 7 with Acrobat Pro 10.0.0
I have a Epson Perfection v30 Scanner installed. I open Acrobat, and when I select Scan to PDF, pick the v30 Scanner, and start the scan, it does actually start and complete the scanning process. However, at the moment where it displays the results of the scan, Acrobat crashes with the following Signature:

Does anybody have any ideas? Is anybody using the Epson Perfection v30 scanner?

Any ideas? there was an update on adobe dated 2/25/13. Perhaps if I uninstall it? I need advice on how to uninstall. When I view updates and click on it, and then click uninstall, it goes back to the Program Screen, in Control, for all programs. Then do I click on Acrobat and Uninstall? I am nervous about doing this. Thanks

Acrobat Pro 8 crashing when trying to combine multiple PDFs

I'm using Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.1.6. I have a folder with 17 PDF files in it. I highlight them all, right-click and click "combine supported files in Acrobat..." The wizard comes up. I click "next" and then "create" and it starts combining but during the progress it will crash and give me a "debug" "send" or "dont send" error message. I try it again and it will crash on a different spot in the progress than the time before. This happens 9 out of 10 times but sometimes it will finish and I can save the file successfully. I am having this problem on multiple machines. I installed the trial version of Acrobat Pro 9.0 but it did the same thing. I uninstalled my anti-virus but the problem persists.
Below is what I get if I click "To see what data this error report contains, click here"

Wow, Acrobat Pro XI crashes constantly ...

I accidently posted this in the wrong forum, but here's my problem:
Hey everyone,
I work with large PDF files (sometimes 1000 page documents) and I move pages from one PDF to another sometimes. I've found that Acrobat XI pro is terrible with it's stability. I am having the program crash probably 5 to 10 times per day. It's pretty crazy because I probably had 5-10 crashes PER YEAR for Acrobat X pro. I'm wondering if it's the new font flattening or whatever that constantly makes this happen?
Anyway, I've found it will constantly crash when you have the thumbnail pages on the left in view, and scroll through those thumbnail pics. If I scroll through them fast (like rolling down a web page fast) then it crashes, and I mean constantly. I have now adapted my use of the program to go slow - like "a 4 year old child might scroll down a web page" slow. And it STILL CRASHES. It's pretty shocking.
I don't mind, it's a huge pain but I can still work... BUT here's the thing. If it crashes while you are writing something in a text box then it can RUIN all of your notes on the entire document. The font is still there but it just turns into a bunch of XXXXXXXXXXX's with boxes around them. I can manually go in and edit all of these and change the font from XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX's version to whatever, and the text will come back - but doing this in a 1000 page document with 2000 text boxes is NOT possible.
Very surprised to see such an unstable product come from Adobe. I was going to let this slide until I saw that it has the ability to wipe out 30 hours of editing work via this crazy crash and turn all the font into XXXXXXXXXXXXXX. It's not really acceptable to do stuff like this because you can wreck a whole work week (or even month if you have a huge document). How is this possible guys?
Great improvements with the program as far as work flow, but it's all for naught if your program crashes multiple times per day. I would recommend others stay away from this program if you are doing anything important that you don't want to lose. Or if you are making important edits.
Want to know what I mean by XXXX's? Here you go:
Imagine you have tons of edits on your document that used to be words and they become this font. Imagine you have 100 hrs of editing work becoming this. It could literaly cost you 50 hrs of productive time... just wow.
This has happened at least 7 or 8 times, luckily I was only working with under 100 edits and it only took maybe 30 minutes to clean up. If it happened to one of my big documents I just might punch a hole through a wall.

Trust me, I use ZERO third party anything. I reinstalled the program clean yesterday too.
I think the embed commands are probably part of the whole thing. I don't 100% understand how it works, but I know that an edit eventually flattens out and becomes non editable text the normal way.
I don't always get the XXXX's, that problem is rare (<5% of the time). But the crashing happens a lot. Right now I have to use some big files because they are built to search through a huge file - so I'm kind of out of luck for that. If I can possibly eliminate the edits on the thumbnails (all the text boxes and drawings) - I bet that would help. I tried to keep the thumbnail previews closed and I think it was crashing 1/2 as often. It still is terribly unstable.
I mean, XI crashed more in 1 day than I had X crash in a whole year. That's pretty staggering. Working with similar file sizes. Maybe the trading of pages via thumbnails isn't stable, that's the only true new thing - and obviously the new text editing thing where they flatten out.

Acrobat Pro X crashes when trying to Distribute, Windows 7

It started about 2 months ago, when I was scrolling a PDF rather fast. It crashed. Then I tried to :"Distribute" a combine file and replace all the headers with new ones. After I typed in the "first" letter for the left upper header, it crashed. Does it every time now. Your help will be appreciated. Thanks

Acrobat Pro XI - Crashes when Acrobat Preferences is Opened

Hi
Brief History:
I am in the UK and run Mac OS X 10.8.2. Other Adobe products are CS3 Master Suite and Acrobat Pro 8. All installed on the Start Up Drive.
Downloaded and installed the Trial version of Acrobat Pro XI, intent on UpGrading on the basis of a functional copy of Acrobat Pro 8 running on the Mac and duly registered in my Adobe Account.
Happy with the Trial version the UpGrade Licence was purchased and the Serial Number was used in an attempt to convert the software to a Licenced version. However a message, something similar to that shown, declared:
The Serial Number entered is valid. Acrobat cannot find a qualifying product.
Whilst seeking help on the Adobe web site a ‘Chat’ system message popped up and subsequently a very helpful CS Agent ‘talked’ me through the problem. With the aid of Challenge Codes Acrobat Pro XI was made to accept the input of the Serial Number.
It seemed to be the end of the problem, gone was the nag screen and everything seemed to be working well, leaving me to get on and enjoy using XI?
For a few days everything seemed OK, then I tried to view a PDF from a web site and a message appeared:
Adobe PDF Document
There is a problem with the Adobe Acrobat/Reader.
If it is running, please exit and try again. (4.9)
This subsequently appeared at every attempt to view any PDF from the web.
Downloading PDFs from web Links to the Mac and then opening them works without any problems.
Remedial Actions:
I have trashed the Acrobat Pro XI Preferences File (.plist), used Disk Utility to Repair Permissions and rebuilt the Launch Services Database amongst other things. None of these actions have made any improvement to the situation reported.
The prospect of uninstalling Acrobat Pro XI was considered but due to the problems converting to the Licenced version I decided that being able to partially use Acrobat was better than having nothing at all.
I moved on to see if anything could be done in Acrobat Preferences.
Acrobat Pro XI Crashes:
Opening Acrobat Pro XI, either with or without a PDF displayed, Acrobat opens and a few seconds after the Acrobat > Preferences Link is hit Acrobat Pro XI crashes. This happens for as many times as you care to try.
A substantial Report is generated and is sent to Apple but not Adobe.
Acrobat does not crash until Preferences is accessed.
I am asking for help here because having had two more ‘Chats’ on the Adobe Help web site, the first Agent deferred my request ‘until the arrival of the Acrobat Experts‘. After waiting 4 hours as requested, the second Agent ignored all the information tendered asking only a few questions before informing me that ‘This Case will have to be answered by Telephone’.
The fact that I always clearly inform that using the Telephone is difficult for me due to hearing problems was apparently of no consequence to this individual.
I Telephoned and waited for an hour before hearing a human voice, thankfully the line was quite good.
Unfortunately I was committed to other tasks and needed to break off from the conversation before any real progess was made.
The CS Agent arranged for me to receive a Call Back. The time for the Call Back came and passed along with a few more hours. Whilst I was making ‘another’ cup of coffee the phone rang for about 5 ‘rings’ and cut off. Naturally it was a withheld number, this may have been the expected call?
The Case that had been opened for this problem was upgraded with a copy of the Crash Report. On the next visit to my Account Case History all of my Cases were found to be marked as ‘Withdrawn‘ or ‘Not Appropriate’. IMO Adobe taking such retrospect action is not appropriate.
I will start the ‘on-line help’ journey again tomorrow but will not be holding my breath awaiting a successful outcome and feel that it may be better to ask some questions in this Forum:
1. Am I entitled to 90 Days, or any other period, of Free Support from Adobe?
2. What is the best way to proceed toward getting a resolution to these problems?
3. Can anyone offer a direct solution to the Acrobat Pro XI Crashing problem?
Any input will be gratefully appreciated, best wishes, G

I met same problem.
I removed a plugin :
/Applications/Adobe Acrobat XI Pro/Adobe Acrobat Pro.app/Contents/Built-in/Spelling.acroplugin
then it worked.

Acrobat Pro 8 Crashes after 7 seconds.

Does anyone know which of these updates causes Acrobat Pro 8 Crashes after 7 seconds.
My OS is Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1:
Thank you.
Harry.

AA8 is not certified for Win7, and particularly the 64-bit version. Several folks have been successful on the install on 32-bit systems. I have heard of 2 folks who claimed success on the 64-bit system. To have a change, first check to be sure you have Acrobat, Distiller, and the Adobe PDF printer on your system. Since Acrobat is not opening, go to http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows and download the updates (start with the latest and work backwards. Each update screen will tell you the previous one needed for the update (you may be able to skip 2 or so). Once done start the updates from the bottom up. You should do the updates through 8.3.1. Generally speaking you only need to do a reboot after the final update installed, not for all the updates.
The updates are definitely required for the 64-bit system and may be the issue you are having. There is no way to be sure if the install will work, only the comments by others that have tried.
During the installs and updates, be sure you are logged in as the adminstrator and have anti-virus disabled.

Acrobat Pro XI crashes when 'Save As' is used for a package that had been edited?

We have a package that is opened, edited and then we try to use 'Save As' to save it and Acrobat Pro XI crashes. No error codes are displayed and nothing is logged in any event log.
Our work around - First save the package in the final distination folder then open it, edit it and save it.
Is there a known issue with using the 'Save As' option for a package?

Hi markt97800229,
If you have purchased a retail serial key, use this link - https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html
Choose Acrobat Standard DC (Classic)
If you are using subscriptions, or if your organization has purchased Acrobat DC license via ETLA or VIP program you can download the installers from this page use the link - https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-dc-downloads.html
Choose Acrobat Standard DC (Continuous)

Hi PgrimshawMVP,
You can try this. Not sure if this will definitly help but I hope this should:
Delete the following preferences folders:
a) ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/
b) ~/Library/Caches/Acrobat/
c) ~/Library/Caches/Acrobat/
d) ~/Library/Preferences/Acrobat Distiller Prefs
e) ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe/
Here ~ represents your home directory. Empty your trash, Restart the machine and then start the Acrobat.
Thanks!
