Acrobat X Pro - Error Message

Since updating Acrobat X from 10.0 to 10.1 - I get 'An Internal Error Occurred' message frequently appearing.
As error messages go it's ambigous at best as it says nothing more. Acrobat is not even open or running but the error message seems to fire up frequently expecially if you mouse over or near a PDF. An un-install and re-install has failed to cure the problem.
Very annoying - Percy Lawman - [signature deleted by host]

Hi Kelly -
Thanks for the tip.
The app on start up is in 'Certified Mode'
A 'Protected Mode' tab doesn't seem to be present.
For info - the error tab appears to pop-up even when Acrobat is not launched.
regards
Percy

  • Adobe Acrobat X Pro - Error Message : "Adobe Acrobat Has Stopped Working"

    I use Windows 7 - 64bit / CS6 Master Collection that has Adobe Acrobat x Pro.
    When the computer is on for a little while, Acrobat would generate the error message that it has stopped working and then shuts down. Once that error message occurs, I cannot get Acrobat to stay open. It opens the PDF document, stays open for a few seconds then the error message occurs and it shuts down.
    What helps for a short term is to restart the computer. This seems to temporarily remove the error until the computer is on for a while then the error returns.
    This problem repeats. Product repair feature does not work. This has nothing to do with the license, I tried that fix and it made no differnce. I do not have this issue with other Adobe products included in the master collection.
    It seems fruitless and frustrating to send a message to Adobe Support, the run around with pages and links is like smacking walls on every turn, it is obvious Adobe does not want people contacting their support. Service from Adobe for their products is poor.
    I hope that someone here has the answer to the problem. Anyone?

    Ok, here is the update.
    The link: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/acrobat-failed-launch-30-days.html , leads to a webpage that says to download a fix ZIP file named: "Acrofix.ZIP". It contains the file "acrofix.exe".
    I did use this "exe" file about 2 months ago and it did nothing to fix the issue. I used it again today, because the same issue of "Adobe Acorbat has stopped working", occurred again and again it did not work, the problem of "Adobe Acrobat stopped working" presists. Again the only work around, which is temporary, is to reboot the computer.
    So far these do not work:
    Relicensing or Registering the Licence
    Acrofix.exe
    Anyone else have an answer? - or am I the only one suffering this really annoying issue?

  • Acrobat 7 pro error message

    getting the following error message after installing acrobat 7 pro with the adobe link-"there is a problem with adobe acrobat/reader. If it is running, please exit and try again (0:104)." It is running on windows 7 32-bit OS. Any permanent solutions?

    Hi Michael, Thank you so much for the reply. You would think Adobe Support could have told me that so I really appreciate it. Do you know what I need to do to upgrade it ? Can I find an upgrade on E-Bay or do I need to go to COMP USA or some other place to buy the upgrade? Last, what exactly am I looking for to upgrade it to the newest version. (Name of product). I will also remove the other program so it won't have any other issues once I get the upgrade. Thanks again and God Bless, Tony

  • Cannot reinstall acrobat x pro; error message 1402

    I had acrobat X pro installed, could not update, error message 1402 popped up.  Adobe site suggested uninstalling Acrobat and reinstalling, uninstalled, tried to reinstall but with 57 seoncds left of reinstallation error message 1402 appeared and installation was backed out.  I went from not being able to update to not having the program on my machine at all.  How can I reinstall?

    Here is one suggestion: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/error-1402-error-1406-acrobat.html. What I suggest it to follow the instructions to uninstall all versions. Then run the cleaner (http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html) and remove any part left of the Acrobat folder (typically in Program Folders>Adobe). Reboot as the administrator and disable anti-virus. Then try the install.

  • When using Acrobat X Pro, error message "You don't have permission to save to this location"

    Hi, first came across this problem here...
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/797819
    But there was no solution offered except to disable some security settings. As this issue was in feb last year, i am wondering if Adobe has the solution as i recently encountered the same problem on Acrobat X Pro.
    Please advise.

    I had this problem with Adobe Acrobat X on my Windows 7 system using IE9.  (Note that I did not receive this error in Firefox as others have also reported in other forum posts.)  I spoke with a guy in Adobe support who recommended this solution...
    Click on Start, then "Printers & Devices".
    Right click on the Adobe PDF printer icon and select "Printing Preferences".
    If it's not displayed already click on the "Adobe PDF Settings" tab.
    Uncheck the box that says, "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts".
    Click "Apply", then "OK" and close all prior windows
    That's it!
    Finally, when you install Acrobat it should also install an Adobe Add-On in Internet Explorer.  It adds a two buttons ("Convert" and "Select") to the IE toolbar area.  The Adobe tech recommended using the "Convert" button rather than just printing to a PDF as it "prints more accurately".  Note that selecting the drop down arrow you can choose other options like, "Convert Web Page and E-mail".
    I hope this helps others.

  • Adobe Acrobat X Pro Error Message

    Hello there:

  • Adobe Acrobat gives an error message "The key file is missing, canceled"

    Hi,
    Adobe Acrobat gives an error message "The key file is missing, canceled" this is a direct translation of the Finnish error message. Acrobat is already re-installed. The operating system is Windows Server 2008 R2, and there is also installed Adobe Reader X.
    BR
    Heikki

    Please let us know do you see this error on every launch of Acrobat?
    Recommended is to have latest version of Acrobat and Reader. i.e. 10.1.8
    Try updating application and then see if you still encounter the error.

    After renaming my MAC hard drive, Acrobat, Illustrator and Bridge fail to launch. Acrobat returns the error message "An internal error occurred". I've checked this out and it seems related to user permissions. The version is Acrobat X. My machine has multiple user accounts. Any help would be appreciated. I renamed the drive to its original name but to no effect. RR

    I resolved the issue.
    The problem is indeed a permissions issue with the Adobe Application Support folder.
    First, in MAC OS Lion the ~/Library/ folder is hidden by default. You must unhide it in order to proceed. (if it is already visible in your ~/User/ folder, proceed to Step 4.)
    Next launch the Terminal application.
    At the command line, paste the following command line: chflags nohidden ~/Library/
    Go to /Users/youruserid/Library/Application Support/Adobe
    Get info on the ~/Adobe folder and reset your permissions to read/write and apply to all enclosed folders
    Problem solved. RR

  • Acrobat Quit Unexpectedly error message on MacBook Pro after purchasing and downloading.  How do I get it to run??

    I just purchased the Acrobat XI Pro Subscription online.  After downloading the software and receiving the message that the installation was complete I tried to open the software to no avail.  It starts to open with a "please wait while we launch Acrobat..." screen, then I get an error message "Acrobat Quit Unexpectedly"  with options to Ignor, Report, or Reopen.  I've sent the report, but no matter how many times I try the 'Reopen' or 'Ignore' options the software will not open.  I'm running a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X version 10.7.5.
    Any suggestions on how to get the software to work.  I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Ron,
    Please try the steps below and let me know if it worked for you.
    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.

  • Acrobat 7.0 Pro error message in Vista Ultimate..missing printer driver

    I use to have Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional installed on my other computer with had XP Pro as its operating system. I could convert any Word 2003 document into a PDF and e-mail it without any problems. I just purchased a new computer with Vista Ultimate 64 bit and every time I try to convert a Word document into a PDF I get an error message that says it can't find the printer driver and to please re-install Acrobat. I did what it said and I keep getting the same error message. I even installed the newest Adobe Reader like it said. I know my printer driver works. Does anyone have a solution? It seems all the money you spend on Adobe products their support staff just wants to wash their hands and send you on some wild goose chase looking for answers on their un-user friendly site instead of answering the question or making any recommendations. If I have to update it so be it. They should have told me that. This is the last time I will fork over $600 on any of their products because their service stinks. I appreciate any help from anyone who has experienced this same problem or who knows how to rectify it. God Bless, Tony

  • Acrobat 9.0 error message when trying to open

    Just got this error message when trying to open Acrobat Pro 9.0:
    Has been installed for 6 month, use 4-5 times per week, never had an issue until this. Usually I would do an 'Uninstall' 'Reinstall' before coming to the forum, but it will not allow me to do a 'deactivitation'.Any help at all, thanks.
    System Info:

    Good day,
    You can initiate a Repair installation from Control Panel > Programs by clicking on the Acrobat 9 installation, choosing 'Change' then following the prompts for a repair install.
    I missed the part where you mentioned the error was occurring on launch.  Sorry about that.
    Kind regards,

  • Acrobat 9 Pro Error 148:3 You cannot use this product at this time

    Am running XP Pro SP3 with Acrobat 9.0 Pro Extended.  Until I installed Comodo antivirus software yesterday, Acrobat worked fine.  Now when I open Acrobat I get an error message similar to this:  “You cannot use this product at this time. You must repair this problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or contact your IT . . .  (148:3).”  Then when I click OK, Acrobat shuts down. 
    I’ve tried the Licensing fixes found at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405970.html but fixes didn’t work.  I uninstalled and reinstalled.  Now when I try to install updates, it looks like it’s installing but at the end the installation says it failed.
    Any ideas on how to resolve my problem?   Thank-you.     

    Bill, you're correct and thanks for your help.  In my particular case, Acrobat Pro was working fine until I upgraded Comodo (from the green/white shield to the red shield).  Thnking it was an Acrobat problem, I uninstalled Acrobat Pro and reinstalled Acrobat Pro with Comodo turned off.  Still got the "148:3" error msg.  Solution, I uninstalled Comodo and restarted the computer.  Then updated Acrobat Pro, there were two updates.  Restarted computer.  Then installed Comodo.  Everything now works fine.

  • Adobe Acrobat X Pro Error in SharePoint 2010

    I have a group of users who are unable to access PDF Files in a
    Specific Folder in SharePoint 2010
    They are however able to open PDF Files from emails, desktop, other shared folders and
    other folders in SharePoint 2010. See the error message below.
    Error Message:
    There was an error opening this document. File open failed.
    Note the users are currently using Adobe Acrobat X PRO.  Could this be a permission issue in SharePoint?
    Regards,

    Hello,
    In addition to permission, are you able to open same PDF from other folder or library? Just download PDF file using windows explorer and upload in any library folder and open it.
    Since you are able to open other PDF files so i suspect that there is issue with specific file only. You might also try to same file in different browser.
