Cannot combine few PDF on network drive

Adobe Acrobat version 9 & X (Standard & Professional.)
Cannot combine few PDF files on network drive.
How to fix it ????

Does it work if the files are on your local drive?
If so, why don't you just copy them to your local drive before making the PDF?

Cant print PDFs to network drive

Im running windows 7 with acrobat pro x.
When i print pdf to the local drive it works perfectly but when i try print to a network drive it does nothing. When i go to control panel and printter and double click on adobe pdf it shows that it tried but then it just says error printing and doesnt really give me anymore information. The user full permision to the drives even logging in as administrator didnt help.
has anyone come across this before? or have any ideas.
thanks in advance

Michael is in a lot better position to help. However, such actions used to be quite common, but seemed to be dependent on either the type of network being used or on the setup. There seems to be something related to the temp folder issue that gets in the way. Being that is as much as I know about the problem, I will pass it back to Michael who should be able to do a lot better at helping.

Unable to convert files to pdf in network drives

Hi Team
Iam using adobe acrobat pro 11 in windows7 64 bit OS.When ever iam trying to convert files from text or word to .pdf iam getting the errro message in devices and printers.
one thing i observed that when i choose local drive eg:c:drive iam there is no problem.but when i given network drives path then its getting error.i have full permissions on network drive and also i can able to save any files,able create files, folders in network drives, So there is no permission issues.
Could you please provide the solution to fix it.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Siva

I don't know the solution, but at one point folks were discussing the issue of the TMP folder used for the PDF creation. It may be that there is something causing a problem with the mix of the TMP folder and the network folder. Be aware, I have no clue what I am talking about, but am repeating things I remember reading at one point. That might help you in your trouble shooting. There are others here that understand networks and will hopefully drop by to help.

Saving pdf on network drive from OSX results in damaged pdf

Hi,
I've noticed something weird.
My gf needs pdf's with forms, so the default preview app that comes with OSX does not suffice.
So I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader for OSX and she was happy to change the pdf's.
However later I found out that all the files were corrupted. The thing is like this.
The files are on a NAS device (normally copied form a linux boxed by rsync (thus via ssh).
The linux box had issues so she manipulated the pdf's directly on the NAS from an osx machine (using Adobe Reader).
The OSX machine displays the NAS drive fine, so you can navigate to the correct folder and open the pdf. But after saving the time stamp is not changed.
I saw that it created a hidden file of the original pdf of about 10% of the original size. This file cannot be opened or (damaged or corrupted message). I tried to fix / merge it with pdftk but that did not help (I later saw that pdftk is rather old).
However if I save the file directly on the OSX drive it is fine.
To rule things out I changed another file type (.xls) with openoffice and saved it directly on the NAS, this went fine.
Could this be a weird bug in Adobe Reader (as AR corrupts the file on the NAS and openoffice deals with storing a remote file correctly) or might it be something else?

Cannot combine 2 pdf files from diff pdf writers w/Pro X

I am trying to combine 2 existing .pdf files using Acrobat Pro X.
I have never encountered this before after almost a year of using the product.
The first .pdf file was created using Pro X (combining several MS word documents)
The second .pdf file was created using the export to pdf function in ESRI's ArcMap v 10.0.3.3600 software. This is the files that is skipped when creating the document.
When combining i get a fatal error on the exported map. I am confused because I have been combining these types of file combinations all winter, (the 'bad" files were generated in early feb 2012). I am at a total loss.
I do not even know what to look for in the files to find out what is not compatable.
Thanks in advance!

If there is no markup in the map (e.g., links and bookmarks), then you might try printing the map to a new PDF. If that works, then it is a matter of figuring out why the map had problems. You might check the font embedding and such, a likely problem.

MMC cannot see network drives

I have just build several PCs with Windows 8.1 Pro for my team. I have a problem with mmc.exe - it cannot seem to see any network drives. When I try to save a custom console, the dialog box only presents the local drives. If I try to open a saved file from
a network drive, I get an error box saying:
"MMC cannot open the file Z:\test.msc.
This may be because the file does not exist, is not an MMC console, or was created by a later version of MMC. This may also be because you do not have sufficient rights to access the file."
If I then move the MSC file to the local disk, it opens correctly.
I can confirm that my NTFS permissions are fine (I can open the MSC file from my Z: drive just fine on my old Windows 7 PC). No matter what I do, though, MMC on the new PCs simply doesn't acknowledge the existence of any network drives. No other programs
have problems with network drives - only MMC. The only thing I could find when searching for the problem was someone reporting the same symptom on Windows 7 after installing the RSAT tools, but there were no answers on that page. The RSAT tools are installed
on my machines, and I have tried uninstalling them, but it made no difference. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Iain

I think you are running into a situation due to User Account Control.
As you probablu know, UAC enforces administrators to run as a normal user by default, and 'elevate' to administrative privileges on a per process base. This measn that there are actually two user sessions: the user and the elevated one. each of those can
have it's own mapped network drives.
verify if this is the case by running bot a normal and an elevated command prompt and running
net use to show the mapped drives.
then on how to solve this... this behavior is by design and as expected. you should map your drives twice: once as user and once being elevated.
A possible workaround is to disable UAC, which I would not recommend as UAC is an important security boundary

Shared Review - Network Drive - Acrobat X PRO problem [Urgent]

Hello,
We have a licensed genuine product of Adobe Acrobat X PRO in a company. When user is using shared review pdf on network drive ; sending as attachment works normally, sending as message (with a path to the network drive) it says an error (profile).
The error message is shown below.
What is the solution?
We have few users with same rights, so the rights should not be the problem? registry? installation?
We also had a problem with tracker. (With Programs - and Repair option on AdobeAcrobatX solved the problem, now it works...)
This error is strange.
Thanks for any information.

Any tip or solution anyone, please?
(While AdobeChatSupport was not direct about the problem)

Network drives ejecting for no reason

I am setting up the office network and a few of the network drives keep ejecting for no reason. It's on a MAC/Windows network, and the Raid is a MEDEA brand RAID system.
Thanks

That would be either a Server and/or Router setting. The clients can only reply, (or not if they don't understand).
About the only thing you could do on yours would be to maybe make a New Location just for this, then try Gnarly's fine tip of an all off Location to help reset everything...

Moving part of a catalog to network drive.

I need some good advice for a catalog of 13k+ photos that I'm trying to clean up. I'm using Elements 7, I have purchased Elements 11, and am planning to install it soon. Part of my photos are physically located on my hard drive, and part are on a network drive mapped as J:. Elements finds these photos on J: but I don't think that the Elements Catalog is aware that J: is a network drive/removable drive. It looks for them every time I open Elements, making the program very slow to start up. Should I use the "move to removable drive" to move these photos? How will Elements treat these photos that have been sent to a removable disk? Will I still be able to see thumbnails of the photos and search through my tags for them? If I copy my photos to a new drive, but still call that drive J: will Elements be able to find them? And finally, if I perform this "move to removable disk" task, should I do it now with Elements 7 or update to Elements 11 first? Please help. Joanne

If the Organizer is slow to start and seems to be searching, you should check two things:
- that you have not set the 'watched folders' service to look at the network drive (file/watched folders menu)
- that in the preferences, files, you don't have checked automatic search and reconnection.
If you can access your files on the network drive from the organizer and see the thumbnails, no need to worry. You can move files from your internal drive to and from the network one by the file / move menu or by dragging and dropping folders in folder view. The organizer should not consider the network drive differently from an external USB drive : if such a drive is not physically connected, you'll get 'missing files'. Only the thumbnails which are stored in the catalog will show. It's different from files on a CD/DVD : if they are not connected, you'll get an offline media warning.
Only the catalog itself (the database) cannot be stored on a network drive; however it can be stored on an USB external drive.
If you want to upgrade to PSE11, be sure to make a full backup on a second external drive (such USB drives are affordable today). Note that from that backup, you are able to restore the files not only on their original location, but also in custom location, for instance in the internal drive of another computer (even if the original files are scattered over several internal or external drives).
If you install PSE11 on your present computer, you should be prompted to convert the existing catalog(s) to the new PSE11 format without having any files or folders to move or copy. That conversion does not change anything to your present PSE7 catalog, which is still working as before.

OS X + Network Drive problems

I have two usb hardrives connected to an airport extreme and it works great until i close the lid of my laptop. When i turn my computer on from sleep/hibernate mode it pops up an error message saying "Network drive interruption" then i cannot connect back to that network drive for atleast 5 - 7 minutes. What can i do to resolve this problem or speed up the process of reconnecting to disconnected network drives?

I suspect the problem may be because if you are using wireless, then Airport is turned off when you put your computer to sleep. This disconnects you from the wireless network. That may be the reason for the interruption message. If this is why the problem occurs then a solution is not to put the computer to sleep or dismount the networked drives beforehand.

Can't delete a PDF on a network drive when someone has it open???

I am trying to like PDFs and the benefit they provide, but someone please explain to me why a
file that is meant to be a read-only file, cannot be deleted if someone has it open. Everyone
has read-only access to this drive where the PDF resides, yet when someone opens it, I cannot delete the file. Why
is this, and is there a workaround? Or at the very least, the ability to see WHO has it open? I am working with Excel files, and
it seems much easier to leave it in Excel for this very reason. At least if someone tries to open it, it forces them to open it in read-only
, allowing me the ability to replace that file, rename it, delete it, whatever. Seems like there has to be a fix. If I publish a PDF to a network drive, and realize there is a mistake, and 50 people have now opened it, are you telling me there is nothing I can do?! Doesn't make any sense. Please help!

Read-only only means they can't save any changes.
Excel probably creates a local copy of the file and allows the users on work
on that, while the real file remains unlocked.
Anyway, I'm not an Acrobat engineer so all of this is just guesswork.
If you want, you can ask Adobe to change this behavior here:

PC cannot recognize iMac's external Hard Drive on network

I have a network with my PC and iMac. The iMac has an external hard drive that I recently added. I can see my PC from the Mac and I can see the iMac from the PC. What I cannot see is the external Hard Drive connected to the Mac from my PC, only the normal folders on my Mac. Can't find anything to allow me to do this.
Any ideas?
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Before I tried the software suggested I spoke with my son who finally gave me a script to enter in terminal which added the external drive as something that would be recognized. After a few tries it actually worked and I can read and write to my external drive from my PC. Thanks for the advice and assistance.
Now I just have to figure out how to get iLife 06 to load as it keeps crashing my Mac. Tried 6 times and now I have no iPhoto nor the iWeb, 2 of the 3 programs I really need and use!
Happy "Mac"ing.

I am trying to delete an XLS file from a network drive and am getting a message that says the file cannot be deleted because it is in use. I can't see where it is in use and have tried to reboot the computer to no avail.

I am trying to delete an XLS file from a network drive and am getting a message that says the file cannot be deleted because it is in use. I can't see where it is in use and have tried to reboot the computer to no avail. I can delete other files but several XLS files are giving me this message.

You said it was a network drive. So is someone else on the network using that same file or may have have left with excel still accessing it on their system?

Cannot print file to network drive.

Hello...I've searched the forum and have not seen this specific question. My company recently upgraded to Windows 7 and we use Acrobat X. When we print from something such as Outlook, Word, notepad, etc., then select Adobe PDF as the printer...then select the location to print to as a network drive, it always fails. The printer icon has a yellow sign with an exclamation point, and when you open the printer properties, it just says "Error printing". If you select a local drive, such as C:\temp, it works fine. It's not a permission issue, because I have full admin rights, and it still fails. We have multiple users trying to do this, and it's the same for everyone.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This part is not working when you choose a location other than a local disk.
opening document to print > selecting adobe pdf printer > saving file to network drive > print
The job sits in the print queue, stating an error and I not been able to determine what the error is.
What I did just find out that worked is using the Acrobat Office addin "Create PDF". I am running office 2007.

My iphone 4s cannot join a public unsecured network, but my ipad and macbook can with no problems. I have reset the network settings on the iphone twice. Both times that fixed the problem but only for a few minutes, then I get the "cannot join network" message again. Please help! What can I do?

Anyone have any ideas or information to help with this? Any help and consideration is MUCH appreciated.
