Acrobat Pro XI on Mac forget default printer.  How do I fix this?

I just updated and now Acrobat Pro XI seems to go present the printers in alphabetical order rather than the one I have chosen as my system-wide default.  I can cleaned all cashes, repaired permissions and deleted and re-selected my default printer.  I am running Mountain Lion 10.8.2.  Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hello Atui,
I have the same problem.  I've read this thread and then checked to make sure I had the most recent software.  The software says it's version 11.0.0.  So I went to the creative cloud updater to update the software and it says my software is up to date.  How can that be?  And what should I do?
Thanks,
Maureen

    Hi there Rlong50,
    You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

  • Why can't I open and retrieve my files from iPhoto and my address book after importing the files from my Power mac G5 to my new Mac Pro? I get a warning that says the new OS on my Pro doesn't open files from a Power Mac. Any idea how I can fix this?

    For your addressbook, export the files to vCard on the PowerMac, then bring them over to your Mac Pro. For your iPhoto, copy the Users -> yourname -> Pictures folder to your Desktop on the Mac Pro, and open iPhoto on the Mac Pro holding the command and option keys.  Select the library file from that Pictures folder and open it.  It should import all the pictures into iPhoto as part of the rebuild process.  Other PowerPC to Intel migration issues are covered here: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2295

    Eric-
    FYI, this is a forum for storage and sharing...photoshop.com and revel. If you have acrobat issues you might want to make a note of the other forums:
    http://forums.adobe.com shows a list of all of them, and specifically http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat  this one for Acrobat
    But, since I have had this same issue myself...
    On Windows, locate your pdf document. Right click it and select "open with". Select Adobe Acrobat. That should do it. On MAC, I'm not sure but I'm guessing there is a similar setting.
    Good luck.

    This is what worked:
    "In iTunes, I signed out of the store. I exited itunes and restarted it, logged back into the store (with my apple id), then I pulled down the iTunes menu in the menu bar and selected Check for updates.
    At this point it said that iTunes 11.1 was available and I'm downloading now " Quoted from a fellow user.
    It fixed my problem.

  • I keep getting the spinning wheel, and macbook pro seems to be slowing down.  How do i fix this without buying software?

    I keep getting the spinning wheel, and macbook pro seems to be slowing down.  How do i fix this without buying software?

    Go to system profiler and report back the amount of RAM that you have.
    Make sure that you have at least 20% of your hard drive free.
    Make sure you don't have a lot of items on your desktop as that can slow things down.
    Quit applications that aren't responding or you aren't using and won't be using for a while.
    ~/Library/Caches Quit all applications and delete this folder. Do a regular delete then do a secure erase on all the items that won't delete.
    If it only happens with a certain application (Safari for example)...
    1. Quit the application (Safari)
    2. Open ~/Library/Preferences and find the file for safari (com.apple.Safari.plist).
    3. Put the file in the trash. Do NOT empty the trash yet. Open the application and make sure everything's ok. Now you can delete the file. In Mail if you trash the file, you will get rid or your setup.
    Make sure that your dashboard doesn't have too many widgets and use Activity Monitor to see what it's using.
         There are ways to disable if you want to.
    Make sure that all of your software is up to date.
    Repair permissions (it can't hurt)
    Don't have a lot of login items.
    Your internet browser shouldn't have a lot of extensions.
    I hope this helps

  • My printer is stating it's off line and won't print, how do i fix this?

    My printer states it's off line ( which I did not request this) now I can't print anything. How do I fix this?

  • PDF files created in Acrobat Pro X for Mac will not print correctly on Windows - text is missing

    I recently created a PDF file with pictures and texts in Acrobat Pro X. However, when I send it to my coworkers (who work on Windows computers), the printed file contains only images, and no text. I am using Century Gothic - a font that is installed on these Windows computers. When they open the files, they can see the text and everything exactly as it is meant to be. However, upon printing, the text disappears completely.
    We are using a Konica Minolta Bizhub printer to complete these printouts. When I print from my computer (the Mac), the files print perfectly on this printer. However, when using the same printer, a Windows user cannot print the text in the PDF's.
    Has anyone else run across this problem? I am thinking of trying to embed fonts, however it doesn't seem like it would make much of a difference (since the fonts show up fine on a Windows computer anyways). Is there a known issue with printing PDF's on a Konica Minolta printer?

    The archive format you used embeds all fonts, as does Press and Print type job settings. The standard job settings does not embed all fonts and that might be where the problem was.

  • Mac Acrobat X opens then crashes after 8 seconds, how do you fix this Adobe?

    I am trying to use Acrobat Pro X 10.1.3 on Mac 10.10.2.
    Every time I open either the application or a pdf file, Acrobat Pro X crashes after about 8 seconds.
    From looking at the forums, it seems many people have asked a similar question, however there does not appear to be a solution that works for Macs.
    Acrobat Pro X is part of CS5.5 suite. Reinstalled on a new iMac and all Adobe products updated including Acrobat X.
    Older version of Acrobat works on my old Mac but not here.
    I have resorted to Acrobat Reader, however I need to use Acrobat Pro X.
    Any solution or work around for Mac would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    Please try the following steps and let me know if that worked.
    Delete all the files from following folders:
    [Home]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/SLStore
    [Home]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/SLCache
    And, delete all files from following folder except cache.db
    [Home]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AdobePCD
    Then launch Acrobat and try to activate and check.

  • My simpletech external hard drive shows up in disk utility on one macbook pro but not my other one.  how do i fix this???

    I have two macbook pro computers.  My external HD was reformatted on one of them from a PC to MAC.  It shows up just fine on this macbook.  The other macbook, I cannot find it.  Ive tried in disk utility and Ive tried to see if it was hidden.  Cannot access it.  What can I do to make it show up?

    Mac's with OS X 10.6.4 or earlier can't read exFAT, so if it was formatted with that (or OS X Extended J) ) and the other Mac is running 10.6.4 or earlier or is even older, it can't read the exFAT format or HFS+ format, perhaps only HFS.
    You'll have to settlle for FAT32 (MSDOS) with a MBR Partiton map to be fully compatible with all computers, but you can't have over 4GB sized files with FAT32.
    You can try OS X Extended, no journaled, just for the Mac's, but MBR with FAT32(MSDOS) would be preferred. PC and Mac of all types.
    Before you change anything, remove all the data off the drive first.

  • Acrobat freezes when I OCR pdf files.  How do I fix this?!?

    I just downloaded Adobe Acrobat 11 yesterday onto my MacBook Air. When I try to OCR documents Abobe semi-freezes, meaning that it won't let me save what it has just OCR'd, it won't let me close, it won't even let me minimize the window.  I say "semi-freezes" because it actually does ask me if I want to "save," but trying to do that, or trying to decline to do that and close, is futile. The only way I can get out of this is to shut the computer down completely and then turn it back on again.  This is a disaster because 90% of my job involves working with PDF files and I can't work unless I can OCR these documents.  They are numerous, voluminous, and use many complex terms.
    Please give me step-by-step instructions as to how to fix this, and please assume I know absolutely ZERO technical things about computers.  Many thanks.  Pete

    Moved to https://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat/scanning_%26_ocr.
    I have used Acrobat 11 on a Macbook Air using both OX X,9 and X.10 without issue. Can I ask which version of Acrobat 11 you are using and what version of OS X? Additionally, are you seeing a freeze or a spinning pizza wheel of death. I have an older machine in which the spinning pizza wheel occurs whenever it feels like and I can wait for minutes before it returns control to me.

  • Acrobat scans each document twice - does anyone know how can I fix this?

    Hi Everyone!
    I'm using Acrobat 9 Standard and when I click on Create and select PDF from Scanner it always scans the page twice and then I have to manually delete the second page. It's kind of a pain because it takes twice as long, and when I have several pages it's really annoying. Does anyone know how I can change this so that it only scans each page once instead of twice?
    I'd really appreciate any help anyone can give me!
    Thanks,
    chellie 

    Hi Ravish!
    I am using a CanoScan N1220U, and I believe it's a TWAIN driver.
    I haven't had any luck using another application because they will only scan an item as a jpeg and for this project I need .pdf files. The applications I tried were Roxio Creator 2009 and Adobe Photoshop Elements 6.0. The only solution I've found so far is to stop the second part of the scan so I only get the one page.
    I hope this info helps you come up with some kind of answer for me. I really appreciate your help with this!
    Thanks,

  • Firefox is not compatable with my thermal printer, how do I fix this?

    When I print my UPS labels using Firefox, it always prints 2 labels. I called UPS to fix this problem and they said it is a problem with my browser, not the printer. I was wondering if something could be done to fix this-because I really hate wasting so many labels.

    Sorry, I don't have access to a UPS thermal printer to be able to test that situation myself, but I am curious which preferences are set in Firefox for that printer.
    There are two places where you can get that information, the first is Help > Troubleshooting Information - Copy All to Clipboard, then paste to a text program ''(not an option in 3.5.x versions and earlier versions, was new for Firefox 3.6)''. The other is through '''about:config''' and use '''''printer''''' as the Filter at the top.
    I would suspect the printer plugin is sending the second command to Firefox, resulting in a 2nd label being printed - especially with that 5-10 second delay being there. My "gut feeling" that Firefox would spit the second page out a lot faster, if Firefox was causing that to happen.
    Have you tried opening any of the files for that plugin to see if there are any plain Engilsh prefs that can be changed, or are those files all "machine language" like DLL's appear to be when opened in a text program?
    IIRC, the UPS supplied terminal which contained a label printer that we had in the retail chain I worked for in 2000-2004 always printed two labels and we either tossed the 2nd label out or put it one another of the 6 sides of the box.
