Acrobat X Pro will load one file, but crashes when loading a second file

This problem has existed since upgrading from Master Suite CS5.5 to Master Suite CS6.
It will open a new file, but not a second, any attempt to do so causes it to crash. Hence, requires it to be exited and restarted and only then will open the desired file. This occurs with either PDF files loaded on a drive or viewed in Internet Explorer.
In addition to the latter, when converting a file from Internet Explorer (i.e. for printing) it will convert the first attempt, but not any ensuing ones and again requires Internet Explorer to be shut down and restarted.
Again, none of these issues existed prior to installing CS6.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Cheers,
Michael

The version is 10.1.4. Also, I've run the repair, as well uninstalled and reinstalled it to no avail.
The operating system is Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.
This computer is build for video editing and has 24 Gb of ram and an i7 Extreme 990X processor...
Cheers,

I bought Adobe® Acrobat® XI Pro Subscription Edition (one-year) but not able to edit any PDF. Please advise

I went through the tutorial and the problem is when I click on "Tools" the edit option does not come. Only "Export", "Create" or "Send" pdfs.
I think must be a technical problem.

Acrobat X pro will show as installed but will not be present

The Application Manager says that Acrobat X Pro has been fully downloaded and installed, but my Applications folder only has a folder with an "Acrobat Uninstaller" alias.
Resolution:
1: Trash the Acrobat X pro folder from the applciations location.
2: Later navigate to MacHD>Library>Application support>Adobe>Caps and rename the Media_db and Pdb files.
3: Later log into the Creative cloud account and then redownload Acrobat X Pro applciation and install it and it will be shown up in your applications.
You can go ahead and launch the product :-)

Hi murraydavis,
Try this to find Caps folder.
Open Finder click on Go > Go to Folder and Type in /Library and click on OK
Then open Application Support\Adobe.

Textbox shows xml text in working file but now when loaded into another SWF

Hi all,
I have downloaded an xml gallery (as2) as we needed one for an old as2 file. Now I mostly use as3 but thought as I only needed to tweak it there would be no probs. Of course, it rarely works out that way. The problem is, text loaded from the xml file is displayed with its corresponding image. This works fine in the file. When I load the SWF into another SWF however, it all works EXCEPT the text doesn't show at all?? Whoever made the gallery used 'device fonts' in the textbox, I don't know if this has anything to do with it. I tried changing the textbox to dynamic and embedding characters but still nothing.
This seems the key line -
_root.descmc.desc.htmlText = XMLdaten[number];
I have also tried
_root.descmc.desc.htmlText = XMLdaten[number].firstChild;
This traces out the correct xml data when tested so it is finding it okay.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

The problem might be in the use of the "_root" You probably need to set _lockroot = true; in the loaded swf, otherwise the _root is that of the loading swf, not the loaded one.

Acrobat X Pro 10.1.12 under Yosemite crashes when trying to use arrow keys to navigate.

Acrobat X Pro 10.1.12 Mac
Yosemite OS X 10.10.1
Acrobat now crashes when attempting to use arrow keys to navigate. This is true on both MacBook Pro 15 retina and Mac Pro.

I ended up upgrading to Acrobat XI. This works, but Adobe is up to its old tricks changing the interface from what we're used to using. They now have decided to hide all the tools. You have to delve deep into the program to find the tools, then set up your own tool menus. Lord help you finding a tool that you use too occasionally to put on a custom menu.
Adobe has been doing this for years now. In Photoshop of olden days, it was simple to set up a brush, say, that you used frequently. Quite a few updates ago they made that vastly more difficult. And they've replaced words with happy little icons, that are not at all intuitive to use. I challenge you, too, to look at the icon for the airbrush and tell me whether it is on or off. (Sorry, this is mainly about Photoshop, but what they've done to the latest Acrobat is just as bad.)
Of course, their ultimate cuteness in making things difficult for the user is their essential abandonment of a Help system. You can't do a simple look-up of a function -- you have to go to an internet site and sort through a bunch of forums and user comments to get any information.
JEEZ Adobe!

Safari opens but crashes when loading any page

I recently upgraded to Safari 6.0 (7536.25) on Lion 10.7.4. Now Safari opens but crashes as soon as I try to load a page. I've tried most of the fixes that I could find in the recent posts:
different pages to be sure it isn't page specific
disabled all extensions
renamed the extension folder so it wouldn't be accessible (even though all were disabled)I noticed that Safari recreated the folder still with all extensions disabled but just in case I clicked the Off switch at the top of the Extension list
renamed cache.db to get a new one
renamed webpageicons.db
Reinstalled Safari from the link in one of the forum posts
Please help!

InDesign CS6 saves file, but crashes when I try to open this file

Hi,
I am having a huge problem with Indesign since yesterday. It worked fine before.
I use Adobe Creative Suite CS6.
Since yesterday, I have problems with files that I just saved. I can open older files (from before yesterday), but I cannot open any file that I saved recently. Indesign crashes every time I open the file (the file is visible, but right before all the palettes are loaded, Indesign closes down).
I already saved several files (under different file names) since yesterday, the problem stays the same.
I already uninstalled and re-installed CS6, it didn't solve the problem.
This is quite a nightmare. I am thankful for every effort to help!
All other programs in the Creative Suite work fine!

It is puzzling indeed. And quite a desaster for me, since I have a deadline to meet.
No changes, no new installations (not known, maybe updates in the background??).
InDesign started crashing in the middle of the workprocess. Since then the problem persists.
When I open an old file and start working on it, InDesign also crashes after a while during the workprocess.
So I can't work, I can't save files ... booo!
This happened with an update of a document that I work on all the time, a monthly magazine.
Maybe it is a Windows problem, although it is strange that all other programs work fine. (I use Windows XP)

Hi Marketing Haskin,
Are you facing downloading issues or installation issues?
Are you getting any error message?
Are you downloading the installer from Adobe official website or from any third party website?

Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro will not load on new Windows 7 Home Ultimate PC

Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro will not load on new Windows 7 Home Ultimate PC

When I double click on the AA9 icon to initiate installation, it whirls away for a while then asks if I want to allow "this program to make changes to his computer?" I click Yes and it begins to process again for a few minutes. Then it displays the following Invalid Unicode file error message...and simply stops processing or installing. In that last process, it also reaches out for whatever reason and activates the magnifier tool in Windows.
I have thought that perhaps upgrading to a higher version of Windows might help, but who knows for sure?
P.S. – This is a brand new HP Pavilion dv6 series computer that is more than adequate to this task.
Thanks for your interest in helping!

Acrobat 9 Pro will NOT install (CS4 Design Premium)

Acrobat 9 Pro will NOT install (CS4 Design Premium)
Acrobat Pro 9 will not install (FAILED), although every other program on the CS4 DVDs did install properly.
I have followed the instructions, and have tried with no programs running, not even virus protection (which is an insane thing for Adobe to demand of a product being installed where the installation routine is expecting an Internet connection): FAILED.
I uninstalled my Acrobat 6 Pro, (a standalone Pro version that I had to have a few years ago.) I uninstalled that working program knowing I had no idea where my original Adobe Acrobat CD is located, so I was essentially cutting myself off of Acrobat Pro if the Acrobat 9 Pro install continued to fail.
I reported this to Adobe support online.
I have followed the instructions to disable startup items and services, then tried the Acrobat 9 Pro install: FAILED.
At that point, I gave up installing Acrobat 9 Pro. I didn't have any more time to screw with it - I would re-visit the installation failure later.
Lo and behold, a client sent me a PDF file of a brochure, in an email, and I had to grab some text from it to put on his website (Done in Dreamweaver CS4.) Well, damn, now I'll have to go back and get that install to work...FAILED!
Suspecting a problem in the installation routine on the DVD, I decided to download the trial version of Acrobat 9 Pro. So, I did. It downloaded and installed without a hiccup, and I had Acrobat 9 Pro working for 30 days...
I did what I had to do, using the trial version, then figured I would re-visit the installation issue later, when I had a few hours to dedicate to all the hell of calling Adobe software support, handholding, maybe registry edits, multiple reboots, and multiple attempts at doing everything again, just so the support person would know that I did follow all the steps correctly to prove thw outcome is sill FAILED!
Oh crap, I got another PDF file. No problem, I thought, I don't need to edit the PDF, just read it. When I tried to open the file, Acrobat 9 Pro plastered a screen over the program - the screen saying my 30 day trial version has now run out, demanded a serial number, or quit. My CS4 serial number would not activate it, and so I had to quit, not even being able to read the PDF file.
So, I un-installed the trial version of Acrobat 9 Pro that had installed without a hitch and had worked flawlessly for 30 days.
Now I'm going to have to visit hell, and get the software that I paid hundreds of dollars for to work...
Please STOP and NOTE: Acrobat 9 Pro installed perfectly from the downloaded Internet version. What does that tell you? There are no operating system issues, no hardware compatibility issues (which I knew anyway, as the OS and hardware is up to date.) Even more significantly, there is no issue with the Windows registry, or other versions of Adobe Acrobat that had been installed before in the machine. My conclusion was that it has to be a problem with the installation routine on the CS4 disks.
So, I spent an hour on the phone with Adobe personnel: software support, to customer service, to sales, to customer service, and back to sales. After software support came to the conclusion that I needed to UNINSTALL ALL OF CS4, and run a clean-up utility, I knew I had to try getting a new set of DVDs and hope the installation routine problems/bugs had been worked out.
After being batted back and forth by Adobe Customer Service and Adobe Sales, I finally got someone to agree to send a set of DVDs to me.
I got the DVDs. I tried to install Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro: FAILED
As I told the software support person, I do not want to un-install the entire CS4 suite. I have all of those programs working fine, and have about a dozen web sites within Dreamweaver CS4 painstakingly set up and active, and some of them are current projects that I am working on daily. I also have multiple extensions installed, and spent quite a bit of time getting all of those programs set up for my preferences and my work flow. I DO NOT WANT to uninstall the entire suite of applications to get Acrobat 9 Pro to install.
And the conclusion of the "sophisticated" Adobe Support Advisor as to what specifically was the instalation issue?
Adobe Support Advisor
The module found no solutions to report for the selected log file.

At this point, what I want is to know what registry keys to edit and which folder(s) to delete to eliminate previous traces of Acrobat. In other words, just exactly the tiny piece of the "clean-up utility" that I need to run in order to allow the *Y#^%@#&#(& installation routine to work for Acrobat 9 Pro. I have no intention of uninstalling Dreamweaver CS4, as that is my business livlihood, and I know that my Dreamweaver CS4 client files/sites could not be read by earlier Dreamweaver versions. Asking me to uninstall Dreamweaver, Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, InDesign, and Fireworks is insane. Your bad installation routine is not my fault, and you cannot expect me spend countless hours getting all those programs set up the way I want and with all my client/work files working correctly and all the extensions set up properly. So, if Adobe software support refuses to tell me what registry keys need to be changed, then I want Adobe Sales to send me a new, standalone version of Acrobat 9 Pro on disk.

I hit the same problem except I had a Reader X installed not a pro version. For me the solution was to really make sure that nothing else was running. I followed the steps from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2438651#reso2 the link is goofy so here is the pertinent text:
