Acrobat Reader crashes with patch 108652-40

Hello,
I just installed Solaris 8 on a sun4u machine. After that I installed the recommended patches cluster. When trying to start Acrobat Reader 4.05 the CDE session crashes. After deinstalling the patch 108652-40 Acrobat Reader is working well again. Any hints where this behaviour comes from or what to do?
TIA
Guido

This has been going on for ages. From my understanding v9.0.0 has an issue running on a domain with redirected folders, in particular the appdata folder. For some reason, if this folder has a UNC path not a drive letter then version 9 (Reader and full version) crash on launch. There have been a number of posts around the web about this since v9 came out. I'm surprised that Adobe havent sorted this out, cant be that hard a fix and I would assume that Adobe corp HQ run a windows domain with folder redirection in place
We're still running 8.1.3, and waiting patiently for 9.0.1

Acrobat reader crashes with C++ runtime

When i downloaded Acrobat Reader 9 i am getting a C++ runtime error. The problem happens because we are redirecting the Application Data on all of our machines. If i temporally map application data to c:\whatever it does not bomb out with the C++ runtime error. I can not stop the redirection because in our environment we use citrix and we want the users experience on the citrix servers and there desktops the same. Has anyone else seen this and is there a fix.
Thanks,

Acrobat Reader crashing alot

Hello,
My Acrobat Reader crashes frequently. I've uninstalled it, confirmed my system exceeds the system requirements, and installed it again. When it crashes, I receive an error message about something called Data Execution Prevention (DEP). Does anyone know if Adobe has a DEP-compatible version of Acrobat Reader X? Or how I can ask Adobe directly? Has anyone experienced similar issues? Do you have any other light to shine?
Thank you; I am just finding my way around here, so please forgive me if these questions are really basic and/or ought to be unnecessary.
Thank you. ~ Anne Marie

I appreciate the response.
Operating system: Windows Vista Home Premium (copyright 2007, Service Pack 2)
When it crashes, the message is "Adobe Reader has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
The next one is: Adobe Reader was closed.
Then, a longer message comes up near the program icon at the bottom strip across my window, about the Data Execution Prevention (DEP) -- it is one of those that is only there fleetingly, and I cannot copy it down in time before it disappears. However it contains a link to an FAQ about Data Execution Prevention (DEP).
I gather that Windows feels obligated to close the program for one of two reasons: either security has been breeched (I ruled that out) OR there's an issue with how/what part of my system's memory is being accessed.
Thank you!

Why does acrobat reader crash upon opening in iMac os 10.10.1

why does acrobat reader crash upon opening in iMac os 10.10.1

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if Safari crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
          DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

Acrobat Reader 9 with an Acrobat 5-8 Created Form?

Hello,
I am new to my job working with a ASP application that provides a PDF form (created in Acrobat 5) to users with free form fields the user can fill out. Users have been complaining that when the users upgrade to Acrobat Reader 9 the begin to see a message that "Some features are no longer supported..." and the ability to save a local copy of the file is no longer available. I have 2 questions.
Was the ability to save a local copy of a form with user-entered data ever a feature of Acrobat Reader?
Is that an issue that can be corrected by creating the form with the Acrobat 9 Life-Cycle engine or is that a feature that has forever been removed from Acrobat Reader for security or other reasons?
Thanks in advance!
- Yohancef

No I was referring to filled in forms.
So to be clear, the ability to save user filled in information in a form to your local machine as a PDF through Acrobat Reader IS possible, but has to be enabled by opening the form in Acrobat (9 for example) and enabling some feature to allows Reader users to save the information to the PDF file. This feature is limited though and has a 500 use limit per form.
Does that sound correct? Do you know the name of the feature?
Thanks!

Subject: Acrobat Reader 9 with an Acrobat 5-8 Created Form?
There may be some features that are not supported any more but you may not be using them. That message is just a general warning.
As far as saving the filled in form, Reader on it's own has never been able to do it. You would need the newer version of Acrobat to open and enable these forms so that Reader users can save them. Be warned that this feature is meant for small-time use and has a usage limit of 500 submissions per form. You'll want to read and undestand the EULA before planning on using it.
Or do you mean that they cannot save the unfilled form either?

Acrobat XI crash with Referenced pages

unfortunately the latest version of Acrobat XI (and also previous Acrobat X version) could crash when opening a PDF file which have reference pages. For example a PDF/X-5g complaint PDF. The following conditions must be true:
Acrobat and Adobe Reader X and XI (tested up to 11.0.9) crash with nested Form XObjects if the innermost Form XObject contains a /Ref entry to reference an external page.
The crash does not happen if the /Ref is used in the outermost Form XObject.
The PDF contain more then 1 page.
Is there a way, to avoid the Acrobat Crash (except avoid nested FormXObjects?)
The sample PDF could be found here. In order to display the sample document it is important to properly configure Acrobat as follows:
Edit, Preferences, General..., Page Display, Show reference XObject targets: set to Always (the setting Only PDF-X/5 compliant ones doesn’t work due to a bug in Acrobat X/XI).
Edit, Preferences, General..., Page Display, Location of referenced files: enter the name of the directory where the target files live.
Edit, Preferences, General..., Security (Enhanced), Privileged Locations, Add Folder Path: add the name of the directory where the container documents live. This must be done regardless of the Enable Enhanced Security setting.
Please let me know, when you have any further questions or need further details.
Thanks in advance!
Rainer

Acrobat / Reader Crashing When Editing Form Values

I'm supposed to be designing an interactive PDF form for a client using InDesign. They have sent me their current one but I found whenever I try to enter a field value into a text field, it crashes whichever app I'm using to view it.
I thought maybe the PDF was corrupted, so I created a new document from scratch with just one text field on there… and still they freak out just when I try to enter a value into it!
I then opened it in Apple Preview, and they work fine. Both PDFs in fact.
But in Acrobat / Reader all I get is the spinning wheel for ages and I have to force quit.
I'm running the latest version of Acrobat XI Pro on Mac OS X Lion with Adobe CC
Does anyone know what the problem might be? This issue is making the job hard to work on

It looks like you may not have the latest update (10.1.2) installed, so you might want to check that.

Acrobat reader X with thunderbird under windows 2008 server

Hi,
i use acrobat reader X under windows 2008 R2 . My Mailclient is thunderbird.
I get an error when trying to send an E-Mail. "Acrobat could not get a connection to your e-mail programm".
I defined thunderbrid as the standard mailprogramm under START->CONTROLPANEL->STANDARD-PROGRAMMS
I already tried to google the solution, but the only one i found was for Windows VISTA and Windows 7. There, you have not only to define the STANDARDPROGRAMM, you either need to make a change on "default programms and computerstandards" which is missing in windows 2008 R2
Can anyone please tell me how to use acrobat with thunderbrid in a windows 2008 environment????
Thank you

Hi Michael,
sorry for using the wrong forum. I'll post my question to the Reader board ...
To answer your question. That was my idea too, but it is not possible to copy a whole profile. They are a lot of other problems if you do that. I didn't find the settings only. may it would be enough to copy the settings for the reader.

Reader Crash with DRM Offline Lease

Our client is having a problem when opening PDF files secured with LC Rights Management. This problem only happens in older versions of Reader and we've been able to reproduce it in Reader 8.0 and 9.0.0. There is no problem in 9.5 and X.
After entering credentials and authenticating, Reader renders the PDF. But after about 5 seconds, an error message pops up which reads: "Adobe Reader 9.0 has encountered a problem and needs to close....."
This is reproduced as follows. When you first open a new file and Reader prompts you for your credentials and then asks if you want to be able to view secure documents offline. This is obviously for the offline lease. If you respond “No” then the file opens fine and there’s no error. If you respond “Yes” then Reader crashes and pops up the error message. Then each time you reopen the file, you don't get the option for offline documents but Reader crashes after a few seconds.
Files are being rights managed using ADEP.
Is this a known problem and is there any workaround other than upgrading to a later version of Reader?

Hi Mark,
It is highly recommended that you always use the updated versions of Adobe Reader i.e. 9.5.2 or 10.1.4 which have all the bug fixes and addess various security related issues.

Acrobat Reader XI with Acrobat 8 Pro on one machine

I want to install Acrobat Reader XI on a machine that has Acrobat 8 Pro installed. I need the Acrobat 8 for my old version of AutoCad but I also need to use Acrobat Reader XI. Is it possible to have these two on one machine? Is there any special setup to make them compatible? Thanks

It would either be Acrobat or Reader, not Acrobat Reader (that went about after AA 5). Reader XI can be run with AA 8, but you may periodically have to tell it which to open a PDF with. Using both can mix up the OS as to which it should use. That is the main problem I am aware of. If you meant Acrobat XI, then there may be an issue with the print drivers. You may have to play some file name changes and such for Acrobat 8 before you install Acrobat XI if that is the case, but the name changes may cause other issues based on how you are using the software. If it is AA XI, I would check to be sure that this version is not compatible with your CAD before trying the 2 version route.

Adobe Acrobat InDesign Crashes with intel iMac

I have been having numerous InDesign crashes with no apparent pattern (sometimes it happens when I use key commands and other times it just shuts down). Any ideas/help? Thank you.

Hi!
Not sure which version of InDesign you are using; and some applications
had issues when they were not quite ready for use in both Intel and PPC
Macintosh computers. An older version may cause a problem in a new Mac.
There may be several things not quite right; but there are several things
that you failed to mention (best stated in forum linked below) and those
could be: model, processor, RAM installed, OS X version (10.5.x, etc.)
[Something as basic as using Disk Utility (see folder in apps) and choose
it to run "repair disk permissions" may help; but it may be more involved.]
The question you have may be better and more accurately addressed in
this Intel® iMac forum: http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=189
Hopefully someone there more acquainted with these issues specific to
your hardware and the software you are attempting to use, has detailed ideas.
Best regards!

Acrobat Reader X with MAC Server based User Profiles

Hello Forum,
I'm a bit in trouble with Acrobat Reader X (10.0.0.3) on my Mac. We are using server based user profiles for the whole network. (SL Sever and SL Clients 10.6.7)
Installing the Reader X has finished successfully. If I'm starting my Reader, a requester is popping up, asking me if Acrobat should be the default application for PDF files or not. Pushing any button causes the application to terminate after some seconds.
Due it's working with a local profile without any errors I think the problem is the server based user profile.
Any ideas how to solve this problem? Switching to local profiles is not possible ...
Best Regards,
Markus

Adobe Reader Crashes with OS Yosemite

Did anyone find a solution for the Reader crash? even when everything is updated, I reinstalled Reader to make sure... still crashes (random reasons: opening files, scrolling through document, just jumping between browsing and reading the document on reader does it as well). and what's worse? it cancels all the recently opened documents and goes back to some other date. so i can't finish my reading on the ones I had open, and have to figure out which ones they were.

Hey ym10541482,
Could you please uninstall Adobe Reader and then again install it from the link mentioned below:

Please disable all the anti-virus programs (if any) temporarily from your computer.
Let me know how it goes.
