Adobe Reader on Toshiba Thrive repeatedly freezing up for 20-30 seconds & then releases.

This is after several months of use with no problems. Is it Adobe or my tablet?

I actually meant I was using Windows 7.
Also, I use the most current of Internet Explorer and of Firefox, as well as Chrome. All of them froze up in the last few weeks when trying to download certain pdfs within them. Also, I downloaded a pdf from an instructor, and it froze both Reader and Acrobat.
I keep acceleration off, often, because laptops have a tendency to lock up with acceleration turned on. But I'll try that again.

Ever since downloading your update a few minutes ago, my computer keeps freezing up for a few seconds & then starts going again. Why? Is it the update?

I downloaded your update sent about 10 minutes ago. Ever since I did so, my computer started freezing up for a few seconds, and then it starts going again. This is annoying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do something to fix this. It started happening with your update.

Why start a new and very similar thread to your other one which you have not responded to (have you read the replies?)
I suggest that no response is made to this duplicate thread.

LaptopSatellite freezes up for a few seconds

Any suggestion or thoughts?
Solved!

Wouldn't hurt to uninstall Service Station. Most don't much like it anyway. Go to Programs and Preferences in Control Panel to do that.
You could reinstall it after that if you like it.

Adobe Reader XI 11.0.07 freezes intermittently on Windows 8.1 when doing "Save As"

Adobe Reader XI 11.0.07 freezes intermittently on Windows 8.1 when doing "Save As". This occurs when opening a file from Outlook or from the web. I have IE 11 and Microsoft Office 365 installed on a Toshiba Satellite P50. Windows and Office have the latest updates. There are no error messages. I can clear Adobe Reader with Task Manager. Opening the PDF again has the same result in that it may hang or work correctly when doing a “Save As” again. This occurs intermittently when charging the laptop or when on battery.

Some things to try...
Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
Can you open Adobe Reader by itself? If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
If you cannot open Reader by itself, try to disable Protected Mode in the registry; download, unzip, then run the attached registry script
It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

When trying to print, adobe reader 11.0.07 keeps "Not responding" for 2 - 5 minutes before finally working? I have tried uninstalling and re-installing but same problem. What is going on? I have windows 7

First of all, why did you say yes to Nero Back up before researching what it does with files already on the HDD? When I install Nero, the Back Up is the first thing I disable, it is a nagging pain, there are much better backup programs available. There are several file recovery programs out there to recover deleted files, that is, if that is what happened. Also, if you haven't overwritten the files, so you should be able to find them.

When downloading Adobe Reader, the Firefox instructions say to look for an "edit option" box. It does not appear and I am stuck.

Adobe Reader hangs after opening a PDF file for a minuet

Adobe Reader hangs after opening a PDF file for a minuet

Pat. Thanks for your promote reply. I have resolved the issue.
Closing the tools pane at the right side:
open Adobe Reader without opening a PDF file
collapse 'Tools' pane
then open some PDF
It shouldn't hang anymore

Why does Adobe Reader window open When i click on "about windows Media Player" , then click on "Tec

why does Adobe Reader window open When i click on "about windows Media Player" , then click on "Technical support information". if the file isnt a PDF file then why is Adobe Reader even summoned?

i looked at Adobe file extensions first and didnt find htm among the ones listed. but then i looked at file extensions and what program is assigned to open htm and sure enough Adobe was assigned to it. i changed it. thank you.

Hi All, Can I access Adobe reader internal variables in my pdf? for example location, file size, creator etc.

Hi All, Can I access Adobe reader internal variables in my pdf? for example location, file size, creator etc. I want to create a hyperlink in my pdf $Location/another.pdf?

Thanks Gilad.
let me rephrase my requirement. I have a group of pdf files where one pdf has hyperlinks to the other pdfs
parent.pdf
-- child1.pdf
-- child2.pdf
when I click on the child hyperlink I want the child.pdf to be displayed in another window/reader
If I have the hyperlink as file:./child1.pdf it does not work. It needs a complete path.
So when I create this file in MSWord first, Can I artificially create a placeholder for the directory and append the child.pdf?
suppose the properties say Location = /tmp/pdfs/
can I have in the hyperlink something like file:/$Location/child.pdf and when reader is used it substitutes the url
so I get file:/tmp/pdfs/child.pdf
Hope I explained this.
thanks
-Francis
OK, let me have a very simple requirement. Can I create a pdf and when I open it
there is one line that says - This File is in xxx directory.
where xxx is the directory name where the file is. If I have the file in /tmp then it should say This file is in /tmp directory
and if I copy it to /other then open it, it should say This file is in /other directory.

When I FaceTime friends in Tenerife, the video is on for a few seconds then their picture freezes followed by a blank screen with a Poor Connection message. When they Facetime back, the video is perfect. Has anybody any ideas?

I had this same thing happen to me. I was using my brand new iphone 5 (texting and listening to music through the speakers) when it flashed the apple logo, stopped my music and brought me to the lock screen.

Could the disk have failed?
Can you hear it?
Boot from the install DVD and see what Disk Utility says.

My macbookpro is freezing up for like one second each every five seconds

my macbookpro is freezing up for like one second each freeze and its about every five seconds, usually i'm moving the mouse and it stops and the mouse is way accross the screen in a different spot. really irritating.

New development. The computer works fine until I try to connect to my office network, which has always worked. Once that tries and fails, the freeze-every-five-seconds begins to happen and won't go away. Again, this connection worked perfectly until last night (around the time I did the latest software update ... I believe it was an iLife Quicktime patch).
Can I uninstall that?

Try resetting the SMC 2-3 times, if that does not work then the DVD may need cleaning. Get a dry cleaning kit from your local office supply store.
