Adobe Reader X pdfs disappearing!

Hi,
I'm posting this for my wife who is having this problem with her new(ish) 13" Macbook Pro:
"I am using Adobe Reader X on my MacBook (OS X, 10.6.8). If I have a pdf open in Reader, and then put my laptop to sleep [close the lid], after it wakes up the content of the pdf is no longer visible. It's not that the window is all whited or blacked out, there is no window. There is only a menu bar. The file cannot be returned to normal by selecting it in the Window menu [though, we have learned that you can use the "zoom" function and it will reappear]. After this happens, the only way to view this file is to close Reader and re-open the file. I tried reinstalling Reader X, but still have the same problem."
We have not been able to find this problem noted anywhere online and we've posted to the adobe forum but have yet to receive a response from anyone.
So.... Anyone have any ideas about this?

Adobe Reader X is the ONLY program that this is happening with. And, just to clarify (for "suvos"), this is being run on Snow Leopard, not Lion. Also, just to forestall the obvious "have you updated" query: yes, Adobe Reader X is at version 10.1.1, and all other system-wide updates have been performed.
My wife is a scientist and really relies on some of the features/functionality particular to Adobe Reader, otherwise I'm sure that Preview would be a fix. Somehow we need to deal with this and, like I said, we can't seem to find any other folks with this problem out there.
Thanks!

Have downloaded both Adobe reader and PDF reader, but when I attempt to open a pdf from a site on safari, it starts to load, then disappears. Any way to fix this?

Try quitting the PDF apps and Safari like I describe below. Then reset the iPad. After it starts try again.
Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

I can no longer type in unlimited information on my adobe reader in pdf. At one time this was an option, it would give you an icon that would allow you to type in more information. This is no longer an option. What happen?

That is not an option of Adobe Reader, but the way a PDF is created.

Adobe Reader 7でセキュリティ設定したPDFを開けない

Adobe Reader 7でセキュリティ設定したPDFを開くと次のエラーが発生するという事象が起こっています。
埋め込みフォント「OONPKP+MS-Pgothic」を抽出できません。一部の文字を正しく表示できない場合や、印刷できない場合があります。
対象のPDFはExcel97-2003形式のXLSファイルをPDF変換した後パスワードをかけてセキュリティ設定したもので、以下のプロパティになっています。
アプリケーション：PScript5.dll Version 5.2.2
PDF変換：Acrobat Distiller 10.0.0.0(Windows)
PDFのバージョン：1.6(Acrobat 7.x)
ファイルサイズ：829.29KB
ページサイズ：210X297mm
ページ数：8
タグ付きPDF：いいえ
Web表示用に最適化：いいえ
このPDFは毎月作成していますが、先月作成したPDFは問題なくAdobe Reader 7で開けます。
また、今月作成したPDFでもセキュリティが設定される前のPDFは問題なくAdobe Reader 7で開けます。
セキュリティ設定のオペレーションには先月と変更はありません。
Excelで使用しているフォントは「ＭＳＰゴシック」「ＭＳＰ明朝」のみです。
以下に分かっている事象をまとめます。
・セキュリティ設定したPDFをAdobe Reader 7で開くとエラーになる場合がある
・セキュリティ設定していないPDFをAdobe Reader 7で開くと正常に表示
・複数のPDFにセキュリティを設定すると正常に表示できるものとエラーになるものが混在する
・Adobe Reader 7でエラーになるPDFをAdobe Reader 10で開くと正常に表示
Q、埋め込みフォント「OONPKP」とは何を指しているのでしょうか？
Q、同じオペレーションのセキュリティ設定で、どのような違いが起こるのでしょうか？（日時、ファイル名に依存するなど）
Q、対象PDFをAdobe Reader 7で正常に表示する方法はあるのでしょうか？
Q、PDF作成後にAdobe Reader 7でエラーが起こるかどうかを事前に確認する方法はあるのでしょうか？
以上、よろしくお願いいたします。

毎月PDFの作成に使用しているXLSファイル以外のファイルを同じ設定でPDF化した場合には問題は発生しますか？
新規に作成したファイルや、他の業務で使用しているXLSファイルなど、いくつか試してみてください。
ほとんど何も入力していないファイルでも発生する場合はAcrobatやExcel のプログラム内部（もしくは設定等）が破損している可能性があります。
AcrobatとExcel（およびOS）にはアップデータを適用して最新版が適用されているかを確認してください。
最新版にも関わらずエラーが発生する場合は初期設定のリセット（再設定）やプログラムの再インストールなどが必要かもしれません。
逆に他のファイルではエラーが発生せず、当該ファイルのみで発生するのであればファイル内部に問題がある可能性が高いです。
複数のページに別れているのであれば1ページずつ書き出して、エラーが発生するページを特定します。
その後、そのページ内のデータでエラーが発生する箇所を探します。
（データを1ヶ所ずつ削除していって、エラーが出なくなったところが原因と考えられます）
他の対応策として…
　・PDFを書き出してからAcrobat上（Adobe Readerではできません）でセキュリティの設定を行う方法を試す
　・PDFの書き出し設定を確認する→書き出し時にPDFのバージョン（＝開けるReaderのバージョン）を指定する箇所があります
といったことも考えられます。
また、使用しているフォントがMSゴシックやMS明朝のみで、PDFを開くパソコンもWindwosであればフォントを埋め込まずにPDFを作成する、という方法もあります。
（セキュリティを設定している場合にはフォントの埋め込みは必須かもしれません。ここは未確認です）

Stop firefox from asking to use adobe reader for pdf's.

I have already set Firefox to use the adobe reader for pdf's. It still asks what program to use to open pdf's. Is there another setting I'm missing? IE doesn't do this. I prefer to use Firefox. It would be great to remove this nuisance.
Thanks

I did not see a 'program' option in control panel in Win XP Pro

Adobe Reader 'x.pdf' dosyasını açamadı çünkü, desteklenmeyen türde bir dosya ya da bozulmuş (örneğin, e-posta eki olarak gönderilmiş ve kodu doğru şekilde çözülmemiş).

Hi,
Thank you for contacting us.
It seems that the file might have been damaged during the transit, I would suggest you to try downloading the file again. Also, you may want to ask the sender to resend the file; if the issue still persists.

Adobe Reader X text disappears

I have a user that will have open 3 or 4 PDF's in Adobe Reader X. When the user starts flipping between the PDF's. the screen starts to go dark and the text disappears on one or more document until it's closed out and reopened. The PDF's are about 300 pages each of text. I did all updates to windows and to adobe and it still happening. The computer is running Windows 7 32bit. It's a Dell 980 with 4GB of RAM. Any advice would help.
Thanks.

Is there something special about a pdf/a doc?

Adobe Reader 9 pdf printing turns text into symbols

I am trying to print a pdf file, when it starts printing all of the text turns into random symbols, I am trying to print a rebate and this is really frustrating. I saved the online pdf to my HardDrive, then I try to print it after opening with Adobe Reader 9. I have tried printing it as an image, and still the same occurs, my printer is fine, it prints word documents and notepad perfectly, I have all the latest updates, so I do not know why this is happening.

I do realize that not all printers are affected. However, the problem is clearly with Adobe Reader 9. The reason I say this is that the problem does NOT exist with Adobe Reader 8. The problem ONLY occurs with Adobe Reader 9. Furthermore, I am not sure what specific resolution to this printer you are referring to, but there hasn't been a solution presented thus far that is an actual fix for the problem. Originally, I identified that if I selected "Print to Image" the entire multi-page PDF would print as expected. Although, this solution causes the multi-page PDF to print very slowly (for the reasons noted by Mike). Another reader reported that if you install FoxIT PDF Reader, multi-page PDFs print just fine. I have verified that installing FoxIT Reader DOES INDEED allow me to print multi-page PDFs to our FS-C5015N. Again, if it was purely a driver issue, why would a multi-page PDF opened with FoxIT Reader print as expected while the same PDF opened with Adobe Reader 9, not print as expected? There also were a couple other posts about using the generic Kyocera KX driver. This is not an option for us. Finally, there was a post about changing the Post Script driver setings. We do not use the Post Script driver. And just as a side note, we have tried using the Post Script driver to see if this will resolve the multi-page PDF issue, and it does not. With that said, I implore Adobe to once again acknowledge this problem and provide users with a fix. This is a very frustrating problem.

How to stop Adobe Reader opening pdf's in Safari

I've checked all the forums for this problem and have tried all the solutions, however none work for me.
I've deleted Adobe Reader and used a program call CleanMyMac to get rid of all files, so no plug-in's, nothing left of Adobe Reader. Yet, I cannot open pdf's in Safari as it still wants to use Adobe Reader.
I've right clicked other pdf's in my documents and have checked that they are opening with my default program, which is Evernote. The option to 'change all' is greyed out.
What else can I do, other than stop using Safari?

Adobe Reader installed? If so remove Reader.
Macintosh HD > Library > Internet Plug-ins
Look for these two files.
AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin
AdobePDFViewer.plugin
Right click those and select “Move To Trash”.
Remove CleanMyMac

Adobe Acrobat X vs Adobe Reader XI pdf ownership

Hi All,
This question comes up from time to time and I am still not sure how should this really work, tehrefor I require Your help.
In case I install Acrobat X and Reader XI on the same machine,the progam I install the last, will become the default viewer for pdf documents.
1.Should this really work that way?
2.What is the best practice to set Acrobat the default program on a machine where Reader is installed too? (except if only Reader is installed)
3.Is there any documentation regarding to how pdfownership changes with installing/reinstalling Reader and Acrobat after each other?
-Forexample: first I install AdobeReader XI, than I install Acrobat X, and finally I run a repair/reinstallation for Adobe Reader. In this case AdobeReader will have the ownership since this was installed last. Is that correct so?
Thanks for your help in advance!
Zoltan

Assuming that you are on Windows, that's how it works: a program is installed, and assumes ownership of the file association for the files it handles.
There is an easy way to correct that after the installation: open Adobe Reader or Acrobat | Edit | Preferences | General: click on the Select Default PDF Handler button to select between Acrobat and Reader.

Adobe reader destroy all. Fx windows, mail, explorer and google chrome. These Ikons changes to a Ikon from adobe reader with PDF written on it

I have had pleasure of Adobe many years, but all of a sudden want to Adobe Reader does not work with Windows Live Mail, explorer, and Google Chrome.
Adobe Reader change all the aforementioned icons to an Adobe Reader icon,on which it is written PDF. I cannot open a browser, read mail or use windows.
I have removed and installed Adobe Reader many times. But nothing helps.
I have been using Norton. norton has remotely Removed and installed Adobe Reader consult the general remotely. But it changed nothing. Norton has never seen this problem before, so they asked me to contact Adobe.
What do I do now ?

Hey Grethe,
Please use the ' Fix It ' tool for your specific Windows version using this link : When you run an .exe file on a Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7-based computer, the file may start a different pro…
Once done restart your computer. Let me know if the issue persist.
