Adobe Reader stop while scrolling

Hey and hello,
i don't know it is the right Fourm. There is an problem with an pdf file on Acrobat Reader 9 running on Vista and XP. I create an PDF document with Adobe Acrobat Standard with simple properties. When i start reading the pdf file on Mac OS Preview there is no problem, but when i start reading it with Acrobat Reader (on XP or Vista) there is one page where stop the scrolling process, after a while it's going on. But the stop is always on the same page.
I try to delete this special page and everthing is okay, it is strange. because there is only Text on the page. I don't know what can i do to find out the error.
Any Ideas?
Regards
René

I had the same issue and this post was the first result on Google. After seeing no replies I immediately gave up searching and instead dropped into Adobe Reader's View menu and started tinkering.
SOLUTION:
It turns out Adobe Reader changes some settings on installation if it detects certain hardware (eg. a touchscreen). In this case the offending option is 'Touch Mode.' To get to the option (in Adobe Reader Xl v11.0.07 on Windows 7) go to 'View'->'Show/Hide'->'Toolbar Items' and click on 'Touch Mode.' There's a checkbox next to it that is always checked on my system but clicking it does seem to toggle a vertical scrollbar in the bookmarks pane.
I have no idea why someone at Adobe decided it would be a good idea to disable the scrollbar at all, ever. It makes it impossible to navigate large PDFs like technical manuals and there's no notice at all to the user that settings have been "optimized" for a touch interface.
It would be nice of the program to ask before doing in the future. But instead the distinctions between malware and products like Adboe Reader (with all its many issues, vulnerabilities and shady behind-the-scenes operations) continues to blur year after year. I hope this helps someone else having the same issue and maybe someone from Adobe might read this and take my advice to heart.

Adobe pdf can not be completedly displaced by Adobe reader XI while it is inserted into a Excel2013(office 365) file

adobe pdf can not be completedly displaced by Adobe reader XI while it is inserted into a Excel2013(office 365) file

Sorry
should be “displaying”
Like when open a drawing pdf which is inserted into Excel(office 365) as an object, some lines, dimensions with remark can not be displayed and only few graph can be displayed.
But if the drawing is a separate PDF file, not inserted into Excel(office 365)as an object, the Adobe XI reader can always open it with all graphs, figures, texts, lines etc. smoothly.

Trying to open pdf and Adobe Reader Stops Working...Please Help

Trying to open PDF and it keeps popping up that Adobe Reader Stopped Working. And doesn't seem to find a solution to fix. Has been going on for a couple days. Can't access pdf files needed for my business.

With Reader XI I assume you mean 11.0.0; try updating to 11.0.06.
Also, can you open Reader by itself? If so, try to disable Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

When I print doc in Adobe Reader, it automatically scrolls down several inches before starting to print text. Therefore text runs off bottom of page. Have tried all different settings and nothing works. Help!!!!!

When I print in Adobe Reader, the paper scrolls down several inches before the text begins therefore running off the page. I have tried numerous settings and cannot fix problem. Help!!!

I have finally cracked it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The issue is definitely with Java Sun. "Uneven character spacing when printing JTextComponent"
It is raised on the http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6488219
And currently in OPEN state, and raised on 31 Oct 2006 and mentions it was caused by fix 4352983.
So where do we go from here. It's not good because I have tried all later version of the JVM and the issue is still there.
Why? Because it hasn't been fixed yet. Read the bug report above, as it gives more insight -- and mentions the workaround is NOT good for existing code.
So the way forward is to use an earlier version of the JVM 5.
I download the JVM version 1.5.0 (starting version) and works Ok... I would probably think version prior to 4352983 would be Ok too.
Please vote for this.... We have a workaround (use older version of the JVM).
So I am very happy.

Adobe Reader stop constantly Win 7 x64

I have Windows 7 x64 bits with SP1.
I download the current and previous Adobe Reader X (version 10.1.12).
I cannot operate this program at all. Everytime I open a pdf document, within 10 seconds, the screen froze and dialog panel say this program stopped executing. I have to exit.
In fact, when I google "Windows 7 Adobe Reader stopped working" or "Windows 7 Adobe Reader X stopped working" there are hundreds of entries.
But no solution. Is this Adobe Reader software such unreliable pieces of software?
So, how do I view the pdf documents?

you might have a bad Reader install

you're missing plugins (by a large margin )
chk your c:\program files (x86)\Adobe\. .. \plugins
whats in there
do a disk repair // too make sure your disk isnt corrupted
from explorer | C: | properties | Tools | Error-checking | Check now | (do NOT chk 'recover bas sectors'!) | because its C:, you will be prompted to 'schedule Chkdsk 'at next boot' | yes you do
reboot
boot | have your disk chk for bad sectors at next boot
(the better way is to reboot in System Recovery | Command Prompt | do a CHKDK /F there, but you have to know to get there)
(above wont repair Reader (but chk plugins, who knows), so, then:)
go Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Programs and Features
chk Adobe Reader X
choose "Change"
do:
"Repair installation errors in the program. This option fixes missing or corrupt files shortcuts registry etc .."
chk again: ReaderX | plugins there now?
if not
uninstall / reinstall
again chk presence of plugins

Why does Adobe Reader use the scroll wheel to zoom in/out now, rather than actually scroll?

Why does Adobe Reader use the scroll wheel to zoom in/out rather than actually, um, scroll? I can't find anywhere to change this function in Preferences, either.

I had the same problem on my Windows 8 touch screen laptop. It was driving me crazy! Every time I tried to scroll a page down, the program would zoom the page! Made reading an ebook difficult.
I finally found the solution:
Under Edit select Preferences - General
Uncheck "Make Hand Tool Use mouse-wheel zooming".

Installation of Adobe Reader Stops

I had issues with Adobe Reader so I ran the repair from the Control Panel which did not work then I uninstalled the program. Now I am unable to reinstall the application as the installation stops before completion. I went through the troubleshooting steps and am unable to resolve the issue. Does anyone have any suggestions? I am running Windows 8.1

Hi smrflwr,
1. What is the error that you are getting?
2. Have you tried installing Acrobat Reader DC (http://get2.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/) after restarting your computer?
3. Enable the MSI logging on your machine (How to Enable Microsoft Installer logging and Verbose logging to gather additional troubleshooting Information) and please share the latest MSI logs that are created while installing Acrobat Reader DC.
Thanks.

Adobe Reader Stops Responding

I have a Windows 7 64 bit system that has Adobe Reader 10.1.3 installed.   I can open a PDF file and view it, but if I try to open anothe PDF, the program stops responding and never recovers.
Additionally, if I just open the Reader software and try to open the Preferences, it behaves the same: it stops responding and never recovers.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled, but that did not change the behavior. I uninstalled and installed version 9.5, but the behavior remains.
This problem occurs on every profile of the operating system and even in Windows SAFE MODE.
Has anyone resolved such a problem?

Solution found. By enabling a lockdown feature, we prevented Adobe from trying to muck about getting online. Actually NSA provides recommendations on how to lock down Adobe Reader, google "NSA recommendations for configuring Adobe Reader XI in a Windows Environment". We only used:
HKLM\Software\Policies\Adobe\<product>\<version>\FeatureLockDown\cCloud
bDisableADCFileStore                    REG_DWORD               Set to 1

Adobe Reader Bookmark panel scrolling

We have documents with a large number of bookmarks. We would like to be able to scroll through the bookmarks but there is no scroll bar on the bookmarks panel. The mouse wheel allows us to perform this action, however we are using a smartboard to display the pdfs so that's not an option.
Is there a way to display a scroll bar in the bookmarks panel or enable clicking and dragging in the panel to make it easier to scroll through the bookmarks?
Thanks

Adobe Reader Stops Working

When I try to print using a PDF printer, I get an error message "Adobe Reader Has Stopped Working. Windows Is collecting more information about the problem". Any suggestions?

Did you resolve this problem? I am having the very same problem.
I can open a pdf fine (using adobe reader 9) but when I try to print I get an error that adobe reader 9.4 has stopped working.

Adobe Reader stop working in Window vista

I want to ask how to solve the adobe reader that has stop working in Window vista
it happen every two days, The adobe reader that is currently install is Adobe Reader 10,
Need help
Many thanks

What exactly means "stopped working"?
Anyway, try to update to Reader 10.1.8.

Adobe Reader stops working when trying to print

When I try to print something from Adobe Reader 9, I get a message saying that Adobe has stopped working. I un-installed the program, downloaded and re-installed it, but still get the same message. I am using a Medion PC running Vista, with 4GB memory. Any help would be much appreciated.

I have the exact same problem, with complications. I have Adobe 8, which was I think a pirated copy put on my laptop when a local technician uninstalled and reinstalled Windows XP. It worked fine until recently. Suddenly it stopped printing for me -- same message that it can't find the printer. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the printer, which works fine for any other kind of document. I also tried installing Adobe 9. It said it couldn't uninstall Adobe 8 and so couldn't install. I couldn't delete Adobe 8 myself, either -- Windows message said that a certain patch was missing that it would need to proceed. So now I have found the same workaround mentioned above -- open the document in Word and print from there.
This could be a new problem in printer settings for Adobe, or the issue could lie with my copy -- which is probably pirated and which has never updated. I can't even get more than a blank page when I click on "Beyond Adobe Reader."
I'd be glad to start over with a fresh copy or a fix from Adobe, even if I had to pay for it. I would need the ability to delete the bad version 8 and an aborted version 9 so that I could start fresh and install. (Version 9 install now says that now it can't proceed because it has already half installed a version 9 -- which is, however, invisible when I look for it to get rid of it.) Help!
I am stuck.

Why has adobe reader 'stopped? '

What has happened to the cloud ? I am being told it has 'stopped', or to be precise the reader has stopped when I try to access my acrobat account? Have I missed something?
You see, I use a hudl tablet and had to exchange for new one as mine kept freezing. When I signed in to acrobat on the new tablet, that's when the trouble started. I am unable to make new files.

Is this the dialog you see?
It means that Reader for Android encountered a problem and could not complete the operation that you asked to do.
There are a couple of things you could try in attempt to resolve the issue with Acrobat.com.
Make sure that you have updated to the latest version of Reader for Android. The latest version as of March 20, 2014 is 11.1.3.
Make sure that your Android device has internet access. (Open a web browser and go to any web sites.)
In Reader, tap My Account in the home screen.
Tap SIGN OUT (at the upper right corner) to sign out.
Tap SIGN IN to sign in.
If you still have a problem,
Go to Google Play.
Find the Adobe Reader app.
Tap UNINSTALL to uninstall the app.
Tap INSTALL to re-install the app.
Launch Reader.
Tap My Account in the home screen.
Tap SIGN IN to sign in.
If it still does not work, try rebooting (powering off & on) your Android device.
I'd also recommend visiting the Acrobat.com forum for help.

Adobe Reader shutdown while "Saving As" PDF from email.

Hi,
I have some annoying problem. While I'm trying to "Save as" PDF document (opened from email - Outlook) I can see "Save As" widnow for few seconds and then whole program just shutdown... I don't know what to do. I had Reader IX and the problem occurs, now I reinstalled software to XII version and for few hours it works fine but then it come back...
I tried also to accept license again and it doesn't work form me.
I have go Windows 7 32bit, Outlook 2007, Adobe Reader XI.
Thanks in advance
Cheers.

It is better to use the Outlook function Save Attachments, than opening it in Reader and save it from there.
Anyway, Reader disappearing: try to disable Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
