Acrobat XI pro stops working

Hi,
I am a paying user of Acrobat XI Pro. It stopped working a few days ago though.
By stopped working I mean everything: when I open na archive, it stops working. When I try to create a new pdf, it stops working. When I try to merge a new pdf, it stops working.
I tried to fix the problem, by clicking in "help" and then in "fix the installation" (translation to english may be incorrect, since I don't use the english version, sorry about that), and it worked for a few files, but the problem returned later.
I tried to unistall the Acrobat, to reinstall it, but it just made my computer to stop entirely. It doesn't uninstall.
Any help?

That means you should be running 11.0.09. If you can open Acrobat, use Help>Repair. With the uninstall issue, you may need to run http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html before rebooting and installing. Also, log in as the administrator and disable anti-virus.

  • Acrobat X Pro stop working on CS6 and requires a new serial number

    Hello all! I faced this problem several times running Window 8 Professional 64Bits. For a reason which I could not understand, in a certain momment Acrobat X Pro, installed under the CS Design & Web Premium package, stop working. It simplys could no longer be launched. I click on the Acrobat icon, or run it mannualy by the command window, and it is like it does not exist. The hard drive light blink a litle bit and stop with no error message. I have already tried to unisnstall the Acobat using the CS6 uninstall interface, reboot the computer and install it again, using the CS6 interface and under the new installation Acrobat is recognized as a stand alone software and request me a new Acrobat serial number. The new installation did not recognize the CS6 serial number.
    The only action that has worked in the past is remove completelly the CS6 and reinstall the full package again. I would not like to do it since I have my dreamweaver full loaded of servers configurations and it will take a long time to recover all environment as it is now.
    Therefore I decided to ask for help. Does anyone could give me any idea how to turn around this?

  • Adobe Acrobat X Pro stopped working again but I think I've spotted something...

    Hi Folks.
    I am one of those users, Adobe Master Collection CS6, whose Acrobat X stopped working mysteriously a few days back.  I followed the discussions on the forums here where others were experiencing it and took the advice on offer to delete cache.db and reenter my serial number.  That worked a treat.  Until right now, after only a few days of all being well my Acrobat is gone down again .
    When I followed the said instructions above, I created a backup copy of my working cache.db file and it is 16Kb in size.  Now, looking at my current cache.db file, it is 20Kb in size, so something has happened to it, it's grown in size by 4Kb and I'm wondering if whatever this problem is is related to this extra 4Kb of data which has been added to the file?
    Two questions...
    1.  Is there some way for me to send this file to Adobe so they can take a look at it and see if they can figure out what's going on?
    2.  Is there a solution to this that works!  I don't want to have to keep replacing my cache.db file every few days to keep Acrobat working .

    The growth in file size is probably just a side effect of the encryption when it gets locked. You can use the Feature Request/Bug Report Form to report your issue, but there is no guarantees anyone will follow up. Anyway, since this is a frequent issue, I'm sure one of the next updates for AAM is already in the works and will fix it.

  • Acrobat X Pro Stopped Working

    Hi Guys
    I'm running the CS6 Master Collection on Win7 64bit, which was installed during May.
    Today I tried to open a pdf document and although it shows in the browser preview pane, the document would not open. I then found the same trying to open other documents from a folder. I then found the Acrobat application wouldn't open at all either. When I click on it I get the little launch icon (which used to be an egg timer) for a second or two then it stops; I don't even get the splash screen.
    Can anyone help me please and tell me how I can get Acrobat to start opening again please (without having to uninstall and reinstall everything if possible)?
    Regards,
    Graham

    I'm thinking that your problem may be similar to the issue in the discussion titled Acrobat 10 won't start anymore. Here is the solution from that particular post:
    For all the users who have faced a problem where Acrobat did not launch after 30 days of serializing with a suite serial number, please execute the following workaround:
    Make sure you are connected to the internet.
    Launch a regular  CS6 product other than Acrobat or Flash Builder (for example: Photoshop, After Effects, Premier Pro, InDesign, Flash Professional, Illustrator, Dreamweaver.)
    Click on Help->Deactivate .
    Deactivate the application. Quit application.
    Launch a regular  CS6 product other than Acrobat or Flash Builder (for example: Photoshop, After Effects, Premier Pro, InDesign, Flash Professional, Illustrator, Dreamweaver.)
    Accept Eula.
    Register trial by signing in. Let the app launch.
    Quit and relaunch the app. Wait for UI to come.
    Click on License This Software button on the UI.
    Click on Sign in .
    Serial number screen will come
    Enter the serial number in the serial number screen and click Next.
    Quit app and relaunch the app while connected on the internet .
    After this if you launch Acrobat it will launch and run forever without trouble. In case you still face a problem , try relaunching the other CS6 app once more and then launch Acrobat.

  • Help!! Acrobat 9 Pro Stopped Working

    I recentlly installed CS4. Was working a treat, then I got a virus on my comp and had to have it wiped clean and start again. Since re-installing Acrobat Pro 9, it doesn't work properly i.e. I can't insert pages, crop pages or delete pages etc can't do anything from the drop down menus. I have re-installed and run a repair but no avail it's driving me crazy. Does Acrobat have prefs I can delete??? I'm just stumped at what else I can do. If anyone has any suggestions it would be much appreciated
    Thanks
    Maria

    It's ok peeps. I've managed to sort it out. I needed to run the updates which I had to do through InDesign as I couldn't access it in Acrobat and it has updated the whole suite. Acrobat is working perfectly now.

  • I have pluged a portable battery to the USB and my macbook pro stopped working after that, right before it shut down there was a message on the screen that said something like " USB device is withdrawing so much power, please disconnect and connect again?

    I have plugged a portable battery to the USB and my macbook pro stopped working after that, right before it shut down there was a message on the screen that said something like " USB device is withdrawing so much power, please disconnect and connect again?
    if the device I connected have caused this, shouldn't the macbook itself have some type of protection that should prevent this from happening.
    because when I took it to an apple certified maintenance shop, the guy said that now it could only run while connected to the power. it won't run on batteries. and that I have to change the motherboard.
    can I just replace the damaged part only, would apple consider this as a design issue and they could pay for it, or should I just buy a new motherboard for 800$.
    Help.

    BB1B2,
    The problem is in finding a tech shop that will/can do board level repairs on Macs. They are few. And I certainly wouldn't spend $800 on a new logic board - I would replace the computer if I had to pay that much!
    You could call around to a few repair shops and see if they feel competent to isolate the problem and do a board level repair - but I'm afraid, in the end, that your search will be futile.
    Sorry,
    Clinton

    I would do another SMC reset. If nothing changes you should take the computer in to an Apple store for a free diagnostic. You should make an appointment.

  • Acrobat Distiller has stopped working (not 30 day issue)

    I've been running CS6 on my Windows 7, 64 bit machine since at least October. I had the 30 day issue at the 30 day mark, but resolved it and it's worked flawlessly for months after that. Now,  I get an error message that says Acrobat Distiller has stopped working. My only option is to close that window. Acrobat continues to work to read, edit and save an already created  PDFs. Here are where I experience errors.
    I can create a new PDF within Acrobat.  If I click "Create PDF" then choose a Word Doc, it gives me at least two times the error message that Acrobat Distiller has stopped working. If I keep closing that message, eventually the pdf will have been created and will be in the Acrobat window and the file will be saved.
    I can't print to PDF at all. When I try from within Acrobat, I see a little window that says it's checking fonts, then the Distiller stopped working error message. When I try printing to pdf from other programs (have tried Word, Firefox), crashes.  It could be a one page document with just text, or something with pictures -  no go.  I just tested it again - now Acrobat is not responding.  I can't end the Acrobat process - have tried closing the window, and saying end process, tried ending Acrobat from within task manager, tried ending the acrobat and acrotray processes - multiple times in Task Manager and Acrobat won't close.
    I don't know how to fix this. I've checked to make sure Acrobat was updated; I've updated my Windows; I've reinstalled Acrobat.  Nothing fixes it. 
    When I run Acrobat Distiller, it freezes seemingly in the midst of checking fonts.   Here is the text of the problem details section of the error message I get:
    Problem Event Name:    InPageError  
    Error Status Code:    c000009c  
    Faulting Media Type:    00000003

    I think I may have fixed my problem...  I am no longer seeing the Distiller stopped working pop up and I am now able to print to PDF
    Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit
    My Fonts and program are all installed on the same drive  thus preventing me from gaining access to Distiller to change the settings. Windows would not let me make any changes to the Default Font folder.
    This is what I did...
    Not knowing which font(s) where causing the problem, I moved all but protected fonts (automatically labelled) from the Window's Font folder and placed them in a temporary folder.
    I restarted Distiller DC and great news...the program did not crash and I was able to change the settings to temporarily not include the Windows Fonts .No more pop ups and I can now print to PDF!
    What I am going to do..
    Through the process of elimination, I will gradually restore the fonts I removed from from the Window's folder to find the culprits(s)
    Once I am satisfied that the problem Font(s) are found and no longer  included in the Window's Font folder, I will change the settings in Distiller back (permanently) to include the Window's Font folder.
    In closing, and because so many others are having the same issues, I really do think it would be prudent for Adobe to make the necessary adjustments to their program(s) to prevent this kind of issue.
    Thanks

  • Acrobat X Pro not working, tryed to re-install and does not recognize Serial Number?

    Acrobat X Pro not working, Serial Number not recognized?

    Hi lv123321,
    Do you have Acrobat only License no or is it a part of suite. If Acrobat X pro is a part of suite then you need to use the suite setup to install Acrobat.
    Also if possible could you please private message me the serial no so I can try decoding it.
