  • Acrobat Reader 6.0.6 will not start up

    When I try to open any PDF file, Acrobat Reader attempts to start up but then immediately shuts down. I get a black splash screen that tells me to restart my computer. I am running OS X 10.4.11 on a PowerBook G4 1.5Ghz with 1.5GB on RAM. No printers or external devices are attached. Does any one know what is causing this. Need some help. Thanks

    There is no uninstaller for Acrobat 6 Pro. I did find somewhere in these forums that someone had written a script to uninstall Acrobat Pro 6 which worked great. However, that link has been taken down. Maybe someone out there still has a copy. I did find a TechNote on how to remove Acrobat 6 manually. Looks like a monumental job, about 2 pages of items to delete. If you find a better solution, sure would like to know about it. Thanks.

  • My Mac Mini was not sending a signal to the monitor. I powered down using the power button and now it will not start. When i power up I get a strange 2 tone sound, like a warning alarm. The fan starts, and the light comes on, but no screen

    My Mac Mini was not sending a signal to the monitor. I powered down using the power button and now it will not start. When i power up I get a strange 2 tone sound, like a warning alarm. The fan starts, and the light comes on, but no screen.
    I have tried with a wired USB keyboard and mouse using a single screen. Powered up with option pressed. No change.
    Reset SMC  no change

    Run the Apple hardware test to see what it tells you. Run the extended test when prompted, which can take awhile.

  • Netlogon and Workstation Service will not start.

    I have a Windows 2012 R2 Standard guest installed on the HyperV Machine running windows 2012 R2 with SCVMM2012 R2.
    When I install the server the Workstation and Netlogon service will not start. I have only made a clean installation with no extras. I keep getting this error in th system event log:
    The Workstation Service depends on the Browser Support Driver service which failed to start because of the following error;
    Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be a malicious software from an unknown source.
    Event ID: 7001
    I have searched forums and I have not been able to locate a solution that worked for me.
    I have tried to install from another media but the result is the same every time.
    Have anyone some suggestion to what I can do to get this working?
    Thanks

    Hi Jacob,
    In addition to Tim’s suggestion, although the following article focuses on the SBS 2008, we can refer to the method it provides to see whether it can be helpful for us to
    fix the issue.

  • Firefox will not start and profile manager will not start

    This has happened on two accounts on my laptop. I am running windows 7, 64 bit and firefox 18.0. Firefox had been running on this machine for several years without incident, but suddenly when I try to start firefox, it will not start. The little wait icon spins for about a second then disappears without starting firefox. Other browser will start and run. I reboot and when I click on the icon to start firefox nothing happens. I tried to start the profile manager as seen in the knowledge base, but nothing starts either. I switched to another account on this computer and firefox started and ran for about a week, until today where it just stopped working. I have not tried to reinstall firefox as the message boards say this will not help. Any ideas?

    Thanks for your help. I had tried starting Firefox in safe-mode before I posted this request, but it did not work. I tried to restore the system to an earlier version, but that made everything worse. Two accounts were unusable and one sort of worked, so I reloaded the operating system and now firefox works, for how long, I don't know. But thanks again for your suggestion.

  • Firefox was working and now ir will not Start. When I click on the Icon nothing happans.

    I have been using Firefoz for several months. It will not start now. I click on the icon and nothing happens. I'm running Windows 7.

    Did you reinstall from backups, or www.Mozilla.org?

  • Settings (and other Apps) Will Not Start (Metro)

    This morning most Modern Apps will not start on my system, including the Settings app. It seems to be a DCOM failure and seems directly related to this old thread.

    This is a current Windows 8.1 installation, full up to date on patches, and the problem still occurs after rebooting. I checked for newly installed patches, etc. and the only thing recent was the Windows Defender definitions update.
    It's an i7 with 32 GB of RAM, fast SSD's etc. I don't believe this is a hardware problem in any way.

    That matches almost exactly with the referenced thread. But that thread never seemed to give a set of steps to resolve the issue (other than doing a Refresh which would be a catastrophic waste of time, reinstalling my whole development environment).
    I really would appreciate some help resolving this issue. If I'm in the wrong forum, please move or suggest a more appropriate place.
    Thanks,
        Mike

  • Just updated to 11.2.2 and now itunes will not start up

    Just installed itunes 11.2.2 update and now itunes will not open.

    Have a similar problem, in that in both get info and in size column, iTunes.app shows "0bytes." The app initialy would not open using either "double click" on icon or using "open" in drop-down command menu.
    The app has now decided to function, apparently correctly (have not checked all functions, thus apparently correctly is based solely on playing two music selections and one music video), but still shows no disk space usage, This cannot be true or the app would not open.
    Am very concerned that the entire iTunes app will crash, in the process, destroying over five years of music, videos, apps, podcasts, movies, etc.
    Have tried removing this "0-bytes" iTunes - which cannot be trashed as it's part of system and reloading new over old .app from just-downloaded 11.2.2.dmg file.
    Any suggestions?

  • Adobe Reader and Internet Explorer will not load the lastest version of a PDF off a website.

    Even after trying to force a refresh with Ctrl - F5 the newest version of the PDf will not load.
    We have tried clearing IE cache and restarting, and this does not fix the issue.
    This issue is showing up on mutliple user accounts.
    This is happening on IE 9 and 10, and several different version of Adobe read 9 and 10.

    Okay.  If you can provide an external example for me to look at I will know more.  In the meantime, let's start by determining if this really is related to a locally cached file.  Instead of clearing the IE cache, use the Windows Disk Clean-Up tool (in Start > All programs > Accessories > System Tools) to clean up as much as possible.  With IE and Reader closed, I would certainly check "Temporary Internet Files" "Offline Webpages" and "Temporary files" and you can clean-up more if you want.  See if this solves the problem (it should).  If this solves the problem then at least we will have confirmed that there is something on cached locally that it causing the problem.

  • Rescue and Recovey Rejuvinate will not start

    Hi,
    I have a T500/
    My webbrowser and adobe reader open very slowly.  This started about 3 weeks ago.   I thought I might try the rejuvinate option in Rescue and Recovery.  I started the process, and it makes a backup, then it reboot and goes ot the R&R boot area, then it tries to begin the recovery process but the status bar will not move past 0%
    What  might be causing this?
    When this process properly completes,  will I be at risk for lots of unexpected issues? Or does it work pretty well most of the time?
