Adobe XI "Not Responding"

I am running Adobe XI on Microsoft 7. After opening/downloading a PDF file the adobe program opens but then almost immediately quits responding. I am unable to complete any tasks other than closing the program. I have searched multiple discussion and tried all posted solutions but am still having the same problem. I also tried to unitstall/reinstall the program to no avail. Is there any solution to this problem?

You have tried this?

If you have, and it didn't solve your problem, you can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:
http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.
(I am asuming that by "Adobe XI on Microsoft 7" you really mean "Adobe Reader on Windows 7")

Same thing is happening to me. Adobe has not responded to anyone about this error. It appears that Abobe XI is not compatible with IE 11. I do not get this error when I use Chrome or Firefox. Only IE 11 does this. I have tried clearing cache and cookies.

I am surprized that a company like Adobe would just ignore our posts and leave us hanging this this.
Error message is FAILED TO GET DISPATCH FROM IBRWSR2. Then when you click on it the next error message says: PHTML IS NULL. You have to click this error message twice and then the PDF finally loads. Happened every time
Does anyone have a solution since Adobe will not respond?
As a last resort I will try uninstalling the Adobe Reader XI and install Adobe Reader 10 instead. It seems to work ok. But when I try to install version 10 the Adobe site tries to install XI. Any ideas?

It worked just fine for me.

Adobe reader not responding after uninstall , reinstall, etc. recent problem

Adobe is not responding. This occurs always and if I try to closed a PDF it will not closed for a long time.

I open a PDF and when I want to closed it, it does not close until I closed various times. This happens: Adobe is not responding. And then this statement " The Organizer database is damaged and will be reset the next time Acrobat is launched. Quit the application and close any currently opened web browsers." What can I do.

Hi willie ramos,

Adobe photoshop not responding or wanting to close

i had a lot of pictures in adobe photoshop album 2.0 and it started freezin g up, i had to restart my computer every time i scrolled down to a certain spot.i have deleted all of my pictures,i want to know what happened before i decide to put pictures back in adobe photoshop.i don't want to go through this again.it said adobe photoshop not responding and adobe photoshop is trying to close.does anyone know what the problem was,i had 765 pictures in adobe when this happened.

Hi,
I guess 765 pictures are not the problem because I usually have much more pictures in my catalog. I doubt if some video files are causing problem. If you have video files in your catalog and try upgrading your QuickTime version.

When I open a document in Adobe XI Pro Windows 8.1 I get a white screen and the document does not appear to open, Adobe is 'not responding'

I purchased a computer with Windows 8 and installed the 8.1 upgrade. I installed Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and have had error messages about specific fonts not being present but the document opens just fine. Other times (about half the time) the document will not open or opens as a blank screen, and eventually Adobe Not Responding appears, with the usual choices to close or look for a solution. If I look for a solution it tells me that no solution was found. I have not found any information online about this problem. I have used Adobe Pro in previous versions in a Windows 7 and Windows XP environment and not had any problems. Is there a simple solution to this? I have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe, and still no luck.

Hi nausm,
Is this issue specific to the pdf files or do you face the issue with any pdf you try to open?
Which application was used to create these pdfs?
Have you updated Acrobat to v11.0.7 and checked?
Are you able to launch Acrobat standalone app without clicking on any pdfs?
You are getting error related to specific fonts because the document might have the fonts that are not available on your computer.

Adobe Flashplayer not responding even after the download says the installation is complete

I have tried to go on several websites and view content - Youtube, Slacker, and some websites that I need for educational purposes. When I try to view contact or upload a song, I get a message stating that I need the latest version of the Adobe Flash Player to do so. I have been through this process several times today, but each time that I download the Adobe Flash Player, it tells me that the installation is complete; however, I am still unable to view content or listen to the songs. I have restarted my computer several times and that hasn't worked. I can see that the Flashplay is listed on my add or remove programs in the control panel, but it is not responding when I enter into these websites. I have called technical support a couple of times today with no resolution to my problem. PLEASE HELP!!!! What can I do? Thanks

Hi td, So glad that worked for you. That is always the first thing to look for as the SWO must be there and be the correct version, it is an absolute! Without that, FP will not work and you can take that to the bank:-) A lot of users get in trouble by trying every suggestion and dig a deeper hole and then it takes a lot of time and effort to recover.
The process of a successful uninstall of the old FP and the install of the latest version, if followed is really easy. Most problems occur because some steps aren't followed.
Adobe has the next FP update in Beta now, when it will come out I don't know, but post back if you like if you have any questions at that time. Preventive action is always easier than the cure, believe me. But with yours it appears you did a
good job of installing the FP update.
Thanks for marking this thread answered, it helps those looking for similar issues.

Someone has an idea to help?
The problem is for illustrator, adobe reader and adobe pro. For all of them, when I run it with a locl account, it works, but when I run its from the same workstation but with a network account:
- illustartor freez

Only photoshop works.
Do you have an idea how can I make it working with a network account but only from the same workstation?
Many thank for your help

Adobe Reader Not responding on Mac

I recently downloaded the Adobe Reader and the Adobe Digital Editions thing for school....everytime I try to use them they freeze up and do not respond...any suggestions for getting them to work?

Click the little apple on the top left of your screen and choose "about this Mac". It will tell you the version of OS X you are using and whether you have a PowerPC or an Intel.

Downloading Adobe Assistant Not Responding on Windows XP

Hello All,
I am trying to use Adobe Assistant to download Photoshop CS5 Extended trial on Windows XP but the program freezes everytime.
I have upgraded to Internet Explorer 8 and ugrades to Window XP Service Pack 3. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the
Adobe Download Assistant several times, and every time I attempt to download, the computer freezes. I have 2GB of RAM, and
a 250GB HD, Pentium 4 computer. I believe the computer is strong enough. What else should I do?

I end up restarting the computer after it freezes because it does not respond the to the task manager
to end the program. The Adobe Download Assistant asks the question about what type of user I am,
novice, intermediate, or advanced. After I select novice, a url appears at the top of the Adobe
Download Assistant window and then program freezes and does not respond to the
task manager to end program.

Why is my adobe reader not responding then disappears

I have been having problems with the adobe reader XI. It will go to the download screen and then open the document. But when I try to print it it tells me not responding and then closes. really getting exasparted. This has been going on for two weeks. I have called my companies and they were looking into it but no luck. So I did what the site said and uninstalled it. then I reinstalled it as directed. Still won't work.

Try disabling Protected Mode in Adobe Reader [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

Adobe Reader 'not responding' after bringing up document

It works for about 10 seconds and then goes opaque. Nothing happens after that. It is a new laptop, using Windows 8. I tried the repair through the control panel but got an error message 'wsearch' will not stop running. The only thing I have done to this laptop is uninstall Norton and install AVG 2013. The adobe did not work before I messed with the antivirus programs. I need simple instructions!!! Any help would be appreciated!

I have this issue as well. Protectd mode is disabled.... and once I actually get the PDF open it disabloes the print spooler. I have to go into the settings and resart the spooler... but it will never print the file... keeps disabling. I can print any other file.... Word, Excel etc. Just not the PDF. Im running Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit

I received a Case number (#0213127897) by email sating I would receive further info from a customer services representative. But I have not had any response yet. How can I chase this up with Adobe?

Adobe Captivate 'Not Responding' when properties tab is used.

Hi
Thought I'd share my revelation with you all in case anyone else is having the same problem.
I have just spent the past 2 days trying to figure out why Adobe Captivate 5.5 freezes whenever I try to use most of the options in the properties tab. I have a fairly robust system running windows 7 x64, incorporating a quad core processor, 8gb ram and 2 x 8gb graphics cards. I had tried everything including a complete re-instalation of all my Adobe software, only to discover that I have been a bit daft.
You see, eventually, I came to realise that it only froze when I was trying to adjust the properties of objects that had text in them. Upon checking my 'Fonts' folder I realised that I had over 4000 fonts installed. Initially I tried hiding all but the system fonts but this seemed to achieve nothing so I moved all of the non-system fonts to another folder and 'Hey Presto' Adobe Captivate now works like a dream.
Don't know why it froze when I tried to adjust any of the properties (not just the font) but it did. Now I just need to figure out how I am going to manage all of my fonts.

Hi there
You might consider trying a freeware application called Font Frenzy.
