Adobe Acrobat Professional X - shows blank dialog boxes with vertical bars

The file and print screen and the file and properties screen both show mainly blank screens with vertical bars only on them, no text at all.
Looking around the forum I found it may be a font problem. Is there a way to know which font or if that is actually the problem and how do you resolve that?
This is on a Windows 7 - 64bit system with Adobe Acrobat Professional X (10.1.12) installed.
Thank you.

Blank Dialog Boxes with PUSH ME blue buttons

Greetings All,
I'm a fairly experienced Mac User and have been a bit surprised recently to be getting blank dialog boxes with buttons. Could it be some sort of spyware hoping I'll just push the blue buttons?
It seems to come up once my Mac has been on for a while.
Today I clicked a link at a website I frequently visit. I did so in FIREFOX and it's one of the few sites I allow for pop up windows. The link doesn't lead to a popup, but it did in this case: a blank window with blank buttons.
http://www.screenplayhouse.com/temp/blank.jpg
I quit FIREFOX and won another such window. I logged out, logged in, and it's gone.
Is there some utility I can open-- like Activity monitor-- and find out what these windows are attached to?
Just curious,
Me
(I have two similar Macs but only this one seems to do it.)

I would look in Console and see if anything is being reported as you're experiencing this. (Console is in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder). If something is, post it here.
When the window is visible, switch to the Finder by clicking on its icon in the Dock. Then click onto the dialog to activate its window. See if the application name in the upper left corner changes when the dialog window comes forward. If it does, then it would most likely be the name of the application that's created the dialog. If it doesn't change, then it could be created by either the Finder or by an invisible background application whose LSUIElement is set to 1 so that it doesn't appear in the Dock or in the Force quit window (it should show in Activity Monitor though). To determine which one it is, do the following. Switch to another application, like TextEdit, by clicking on its icon in the Dock. Then click on the dialog window again to bring it forward. If the application name shown in the upper left still says TextEdit, then you know that the dialog is being created by a background application.
If it is, Open Activity Monitor and change the scope to All Processes. Quit as many open applications as possible, and then bring the dialog forward again. A pulsating button should use a small amount of CPU usage, try to use that to help narrow down what process might be causing it. Also, most likely any application that's drawing a button will have the "/System/Library/Frameworks/Carbon.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/
HIToolbox.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Extras.rsrc" file listed as an open file in the Open Files and Ports tab of an info window of Activity Monitor. (You can open an info window for an application by double-clicking on it in Activity Monitor).
Hope this helps....

Blank dialog box with button "Fix" at startup

Hi! It happened like this: I was searching for a .jpg with spotlight. I found the one I wanted. I clicked on it, and up came a dialog box "You are opening the application "Picture Viewer" for the first time." Without thinking, I clicked on it. Then I noticed that the Hard Drive was working away, but "Picture Viewer" was not listed as an active application. I got worried that maybe some unknown bug was working away at erasing my HD, so I powered down by holding the power button on my G4 12" Powerbook.
When I restarted, everything seemed to work. Except that a blank dialog box came up after startup, with only one button: "Fix". I don't know whether to click on "Fix" or not....
thanks for any help you may be able to give!

Do you still have Classic installed? Picture Viewer is a very old Classic application. I would guess that you still have it installed somewhere, but deleted the Classic System Folder, and the jpeg in question is rather elderly and still registered with LaunchServices as belonging to Picture Viewer. If that is true, then what happened is things thrashed around since the program couldn't launch. By powering down with power button you may have damaged some files. But I don't know what the Fix button is. Have never seen it.
Anyway, find the file again, do GetInfo and change the Open With to Preview, then click the Apply to All button.

Opening a PDF and I get a blank dialog box with a ? in it.

Sometimes when I click on a link that is supposed to open a PDF I will get a dialog that appears in the upper left part of my screen that is blank except for a ? mark. This dialog has an "OK" and that is it.
I am on the latest version of 9.. any thoughts?

As an update the work around is to have Adobe open in the background and you wont get the error.
The software in question calls the registry to launch adobe calling HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT > .pdf > AcroExch.Document

1. Restart your computer to stop any Adobe process that is running.
2. Click on the following Adobe link. Go to the bottom where it says "Still having problems?". Click on the version of Flash Player for your browser.

How to uninstall the Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0?

I can't uninstall the Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0 from my computer. It shows saying "C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Adobe\Acrobat\7.0 Get last Error:5." It also can't be re-installed. How to do it?

If you still want AA7 running, then open Acrobat and use Help>Repair. If you cannot open Acrobat, then in Windows go to Control Panel>Programs & Features, select AA7 and repair. If you do uninstall AA7, it is likely you will not be able to successfully reinstall it without a new download. Check https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/creative-suite-2-activation-end-life.ht ml. If you are to the point you have no choice but to complete the uninstall, then use http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html.

Enable User Rights using Adobe Acrobat Professional 7

I created an editable PDF form using LifeCycle Designer 7.0. My goal is to have users fill out the form and email the actual filled out form not the XML code. I added a regualr button with the following java script.
event.target.submitForm({cURL:"mailto:[email protected]?subject=Submitted Form&body=Please find attached the completed form.",cSubmitAs:"PDF",cCharset:"utf-8"});
Show = Click
Language = JavaScript
Run At = Client
When I test the button in Adobe Professional or in LifeCycle the button works fine. However when I open the file in Reader 9, it does not work. I do not encuonter any error messages. Nothing happens when you click on the button. I thought that users rights need to be enabled in order for it to work. Unfortunately I do not see how to do this Adobe Acrobat Professional 7. I do not have Adobe Acrobat Professional 8. Any ideas on what I can do to correct this issue?

For Reader users and AA7, your only choice is to have the XML file submitted. Then simply open the form in Acrobat and import the XML data file to fill the form. This will be exactly what the user saw when they submitted it. Thus there is no need to submit the entire form.

File Info just gives me a blank dialog box

I am just starting to use PS CS4. I am using a PC with Windows XP 64, 8 GB of RAM etc. The problem I am having is that when I try to add a caption to an image by going to File Info, I get a blank dialog box. It gives the filename at the top but just plain white blank inside the box. The same thing happens in File Info within Bridge. In the metadata panel in Bridge, I can see the metadata is there, including previous captions. But I cannot access them in File Info and I also cannot activate the caption within the metadata panel to edit the caption text.
Has anyone else had this problem and if so, how can it be fixed?
Thanks,
Roberta O.

Hi Roberta,
Create a new text file named XMP.cfg (make sure the extension is cfg and not txt).
The only text that needs to be in that file is as below:
C:\
Copy the file to C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\FlashPlayerTrust (create the directory if not already there).
Restart the Adobe application and check the File Info panel again.

Problems Installing Adobe Acrobat Professional

Hi,
I am new to Windows Vista 64. I am trying to install CS3. All of the programs will install except Adobe Acrobat Professional. I get the following error message:
The file 'Adobe.PDF.dll' on Windows Vista CD-ROM is needed.
Windows Vista was installed on the computer when I bought it so I don't have a CD. Any suggestions on what I need to do would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi PrepetrolLtd,
Acrobat XI is not recommended for windows Vista and that is the reason it wont show up in Adobe Application Manager.

Hi, I have Adobe Acrobat Professional. I need to know how to create multi-links on 300 page docs

I need to know how to create multi-links on a 300 page document, showing "return to main Menu". Ideally placed on the bottom right of each page. I have adobe acrobat Professional.

Import a picture to be a button, place it, activate HYPERLINK tool, draw a rectangle around the whole button, in the window popping up select the link behaviour, submit with OK.
Then copy & paste the button object to every page. I don't know whether pasting it on every of the 300 pages can be automated, but if not, it is still done quite fastly.

Viewing issues with Adobe Acrobat Professional 8

We have Adobe Acrobat Professional 8 installed, and we are having some issues when viewing pdf documents. Once a Word document is converted to a pdf document, some of the hyperlinks are appearing thicker (almost bold) than others, and some of the text appears lighter/darker than the rest of the text. There is no pattern to this, it is all very random.
When we print the pdf document, everything looks correct, so this only happening when we view the document on the computer.
Can anyone provide a suggestion on how to fix this issue?
Thanks!

Sorry, I forgot the attachment!
Hi Bill,
I am attaching screen shots of 1) a page where the hyperlinks appear thicker and 2) the document properties pages showing the fonts.
We have tried creating it with both the Adobe PDF Maker and the MS PDF tool and it happens using both. I am thinking that this really is a viewing issue, because it prints out fine. Also, it looks the same no matter what the zoom setting is.
Please let me know if you have any other advice.
Thank you!

Scaling Photos in Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0

Using Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0 - Adobe Designer
When creating a form:
Is it possible to scale a photo within a designated box (Position Content) so that it fills the box without distorting/stretching the photo?
If so, can you then move the photo within the designated box (Position Content)to position it?

You can name them all Check Box 1 but you must assign a different Value to each on. Like a "Yes", "No" value in the Options Export Value. This will force the user to check only 1 of the boxes.

Adobe Acrobat Professional 8 Problem

I installed CS3 on my MacBook about a month ago. When I try to view something using Adobe Acrobat Professional, it comes up but then it goes away and a box says I need to open up at least one more Adobe program for it to work. Even if I try opening Photoshop or Illustrator or something, it still won't work. Any help would be appreciated!
