Adobe Pro delete pages error. One or more pages are in use and could not be deleted.

Adobe Pro delete pages error. One or more pages are in use and could not be deleted.
Hi, can anyone assit. I am compiling a pdf by inserting several documents and am unable to delete specific pages. I have used this function on a previous Adobe Pro version but have a problem editing.

I use this feature once a month to extract / delete some 200 pages from an 800 page file. I found the release notes for 10.1.4 stated that this issue was fixed. I updated my Acrobat to the 10.1.4 release and i was still having the problem. I finally fixed it by disabling the Win XP compatability feature that i had enabled in the properties of the Acrobat executable. I had enabled this feature a couple of months ago as a fix to this specific problem, now it's not necessary.
Environ: Win 7 32-bit and Acrobat X, 10.1.4.

  • Adobe standard 9 "one or more pages are in use and could not be deleted"

    I am an experience user from 4 to now 9 standard.  At work when extracting pages from a block scan I keep getting "one or more pages are in use and could not be deleted" it does not extract the pages but deletes some and leave some in the master document.  This happens on a regular basis and is so frustrating when trying to split a block document into individual ones. This is on adobe 9 professional... Process is 3500 pages document, open up the page tab to see the pages. Highlight the first and last page of the document you want to extract. Right click and select extract, tick the box delete after extracting.  Some times it works and a lot of the time I get the error above.  I have google’d this error and there seems to be no feedback to cover the reason as to why it creates this error and what does it mean?
    Thanks

  • "One or more pages are in use and could not be deleted" - AGAIN.

    Open a PDF file.
    Save it under a different name
    Try to delete a page
    You'll get this error:
    "One or more pages are in use and could not be deleted"
    I've had this billions of times now and the only solution that works 100% of the time is closing and re-opening the file. This leads me to believe it's something with "locking" the file while saving, but not unlocking it after done saving.
    GET THIS FIXED PLEASE because it's annoying LOADS and LOADS of people.
    As evident by the 7000+ search results for the exact phrase "One or more pages are in use and could not be deleted".
    And that's just the part of the userbase that actually reports the problem.
    There are several topics about this issue, some marked as "solved" erroneously.
    Note, I'm a paying customer, use Photoshop/Illustrator/Dreamweaver/Fireworks and Bridge during my daily work, and have had this issue for months and months across several different computers (two different workplaces, and at home) and have ran into this time and again, when all I want to do is cut a PDF into several smaller PDFs.
    Closing and re-opening your program because you're unable to fix this issue is NOT ACCEPTABLE. It's THE WORST kind of user experience, as this issue is the ONLY reason I use Acrobat at all, and it can't even do that.
    Cheers,

    Ps.: Sorry, I'm very frustrated running into this time and again, and then having to wade through thick mud (your site is a UX nightmare) to report this issue, which has been report oodles of times on this board before.

    Yup.  I get this problem too.  And I'm posting in April of 2015, so I see this problem has existed a long time.  Acrobat "Pro" (ha ha) is full of stupid, annoying problems.  And the interface is clunky.  I'm going use PDF Split and Merge to remove the page I'm struggling with.  Ridiculous that Adobe Acrobat Pro cannot remove one page from a PDF file.  I am NEVER upgrading this product.  I am done with Adobe.

  • Acrobat 11 there was an error opening this document. the file is damaged and could not be repaired

    we are receiving an error when opening certain pdfs saying "there was an error opening this document. the file is damaged and could not be repaired"
    i've tried a few things to fix this issue with no luck
    tried on a brand new windows 7 install without any added software like anti-virus software, etc
    tried on my home pc (I forwarded the document from my work pc to my home pc and still receiving the same error)
    don't think it's anything related to the computers, thinking it's more an issue with the pdf. i've tried the basics like deleting temp files from IE, going to %temp% and deleting that out, doing an acrobat repair, trying in reader instead of acrobat, updating users from acrobat 10 to 11, and still receiving the same issue. the odd thing is, some people can open this document and some receive the error. the other thing is i've tried alternative pdf programs with no avail, same errors from those as well
    i work on the helpdesk with one other person  for the company and not sure what else we can try
    don't think this is a pc issue - tried on pcs in the company, home pcs, personal pcs and all get this error
    got to be an issue with either the pdf, or the way its being sent
    i did reach out to OUR e-mail team here (lotus notes admin) and they've ruled out anything as far as an encryption causing the conflict may go, so notes isn't the issue either
    would it be possible it's on the persons end that's sending the file?

    Unfortunately, CR 10.5 is not supported on WIN 2012 Server. See this wiki for more details. In order to work in a supported environment you will have to upgrade to CR 2008 Service pack 7, or SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio (2010 / 2012 / 2013).

  • How to deal with "There was an error opening this document, the file is damaged and could not be"

    Hello, everyone:
    I open one pdf document with Adobe Reader 9.3, but it appeared that "There was an error opening this document, the file is damaged and could not be repaired".. and I found that another several pdf document in the same folder that I have not opened for a long time is also "damaged and could not be repaired".
    But in the same folder, other documents of different types are ok, does that mean there is something wrong with my hard drive?
    Has anyone else run into this issue or have any suggestions?
    Thank you very much

    It could be that the directory is damaged. It could be that at one time you had a virus that did damage, it is hard to say. Do you have a good backup?

  • Which version doesn't produce this error: "there was an error opening this document. the file is damanged and could not be repaired"?

    This error message occasionally occurs with Acrobat 5 on XP 2.  However the same files can be opened with Acrobat 6.0.4 on Win98(se2).
         "There was an error opening this document. the file is damanged and could not be repaired."
    I'd like ot upgrade 5 on my XP system, but have read many posts complaining about the same error with newer versions.
    Is there a version that never produces this error on files that aren't actually damaged? And has anyone figured out what produces this error? (The posts I've seen suggest solutions that don't seem to work.)
    Thanks.
    Ellen

    Thanks, Prasanth.
    I've read posts about this problem happening on all versions, and wanted to see if it was least likely to happen in one version.
    I just need the basic function - the ability to read a pdf file.
    Of course, it seems to be a problem only for some, and there's no way of knowing the extent, so I will try an upgrade or two.

    "There was an error opening this document. the file is damaged and could not be reapired"

    Probably because you aren't writing the last byte read every time through the while loop.

  • Solaris 10 wont install - One or more disks are found

    Hi,
    Hi I am new to installing Solaris on a E450 server.
    I place the cdrom and type boot cdrom
    Answering questions about network region etc.
    The installer starts the installation and comes with an error:
    One or more disks are found, but one of the
    following problems exists:
    > Hardware failure
    > Unformatted disk.
    So no installation.
    How do I solve this?
    I have tried different disks and even to format the disks.
    I have had FreeBSD running on this system without any problem.

    The solution:
    If you���re trying to install Solaris (SPARC) on a disc which previously had another O/S (*BSD) on it, you will more then likely come across the following error after the system identification stage is complete:
    One or more disks are found, but one of the following problems exists:
    > Hardware failure
    > Unformatted disk.
    The problem is to do with the disc label, at the shell fireup format with the e switch
    format -e
    select the disc which you are trying to install onto, if you are told that the disc doesnt not contain a disk label, would you like to write a lablel, say yes & specify the type as SMI Label, If youre not asked about the label & presented with a menu, goto the partition section, choose label, specify the type as SMI.
    quit & reboot & all should be well

  • Validate that one or more checkbox are ticked.

    Currently I'm checking if the user has ticked at least one of the checkboxes by using:
    if(CheckBox1.rawValue == 0 && CheckBox2.rawValue == 0){
    app.alert("Please select one or more checkboxes.");
    Is there a way to count the number of checkboxes and do a loop. If you have 15 checkboxes the code above gets a bit hard to read.
    I've also use the <validate nullTest="error"/> in the xml to flag the checkbox as being required but this is not true. As long as one or more checkboxes are select the user should not be alerted or shown that checkboxes are not selected. Is there a way to highlight the checkboxes?

    This is what I would do.....
    1. Set up a Global Variable under File>>Form Properties>>Variables Tab
         //Variable declared here are always considered string
         Example: GCheckCount and set the initial value 0
    2. For each CheckBox I would add the following code under "change" event
    if (this.rawValue == 1) {
         GCheckCount.value = "" + GCheckCount.value + 1;
    }else {
         GCheckCount.value = "" + GCheckCount.value - 1;
    3. Also for each CheckBox I would add the following code under "docReady" event to get the initail count
    if (this.rawValue == 1) {
         GCheckCount.value = GCheckCount.value + 1;
    4. When you validate do the following
    if (GCheckCount.value == "0") {
         app.alert("Please select one or more checkboxes.");

  • Error: One or more categories of approval could not be loaded

    On the Approvals page I'm getting the following message: "Error: One or more categories of approval could not be loaded".  I'm able to approve/reject work and new tasks as normal, but the message just won't go away. 
    As one of the threads suggested, I tried creating a new rule to auto accept and publish, but that didn't do anything.  Is there a way to fix this or reset the page?  Thanks for any help...

    Go to Server Setting
    -> Administrative Task
    Change Approval to “NO” for all Admin tasks
    By delegating user delete and resubmit timesheet. Now verify it in Approval Center... Revert back the Administrative time setting...
    If issue still persists, You can try to change Status manager, By dedicating user delete and resubmit timesheet. Now verify it in Approval Center of new Status Manager. Revert back the status manager.
    Hope this will help you.

  • Error: One or more categories of approval could not be loaded when user wants to approve

    Two of my PM's are getting the error shown in the title of this post  (Error: One or more categories of approval could not be loaded when user wants to approve).    The "Related Topic" issues a work around of using the rules to "automatically approve the
    offending items".   This did not work for us.   Has anyone else experienced this issue? 
    Thanks,

    Hi Marc -  Per ytour request:   
    The PM does the following:
    1. Access PWA Home page and review messages
    2. Clicks on “You have 1 timesheet from resources pending your approval” message
    3. Approval Center Page loaded with “Error: One or more categories of approval could not be loaded” and “There are no new approvals to review at this time. If you have published your plan and
    still do not see approvals, have your resources submit updates from “Tasks” of “Timesheet”” messages.
    We've made certain the Schedule is published and the timesheet was submitted correctly.
    Expected behavior: Timesheet records should be available for review and approval.   Instead, the PM gets the screen below with the error message
