Default printer resets at each reboot after installing Acrobat X Pro

I installed Acrobat X Pro yesterday, and updated it after the install to version 10.1.4.  Since that time my default printer has been reset after each computer reboot to the first physical printer on my printers list - an HP 5900 series.  I want my default printer to be my HP 6940, which is local, connected by USB, and have gone into Start/Printers and Faxes on my Windows XP Professional machine to do this.  But each time I reboot, the default is switched back to the HP 5900.  The printers have been installed on my machine for years with no issues, and I had Acrobat 9 Professional on my machine until yesterday - with no issues.  I tried live chat for help, but the representative told my it was a physical printer issue and I needed to contact HP.  Can you help me stop my computer from resetting the default printer each time it is shut down?
The order of printers listed on my machine:
Adobe PDF
HP 5900 Series
HP 6940
(several network printers listed below here)
Thanks!

  • Trouble after installing Acrobat X Pro in Windows 7

    I just downloaded Acrobat X pro (upgrade) and installed on Windows 7 dell laptop. I had to uninstall ACROBAT 7.1 STD to do a clean install. After installing the product I was receiving low memory messages (4GB is installed) I also received a couple of blue screen followed by auto reboot. Dell claim that there is no hardware issues (brand new laptop). Are there any known issues with ACROBAT X Pro and Windows 7 pro (32bit) service pack 1  

    Hi LosBashBrothers,
    To investigate about this issue, installation logs help in a great way. Can you please share the installation log for this session ?
    To create installation logs, enable Windows Installer logging yourself. Open the registry with Regedit.exe and create the following path and keys:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer
    Reg_SZ: Logging
    Value: voicewarmupx

  • Anyone else having problems creating autotext entries in Word 2003 after installing Acrobat 10 pro?

    After installing Adobe Acrobat 10 Professional I can no longer create Autotext entries in Word 2003.
    It seems to specifically be a problem with the Acrobat PDFMaker plugin for Microsoft Office as if I dont install that option Autotext does work however I need that functionality.
    I've tried version 10.0.0 and 10.1.3.
    Is anyone else having this problem?

    It looks like Acrobat v7 had a similar issue preventing Microsoft Word from saving changes to the Normal.dot template which was later resloved in the 7.0.5 patch.

    the errors occur shortly after booting the system.  is there a fix for these errors?

    z solution is pretty simple. as always when users should repair Adobe Corp errors  while Adobe Corp's time of sweat dreams....
    1. download & install Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package ATL Security Update (latest VC++2005) both x86 & x64:
        http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=14 431
       this is mainly for availability of ms assembly "Microsoft.VC80.CRT" version="8.0.50608.0" processorArchitecture="x86" (and amd64) publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b" in ur Win7sp1x64;

  • Default printer resetting after reboot in Windows 7 x64

    I'm managing a domain with roughly 450 clients, all running Windows 7 Ent x64, and about 50 printers. All clients have the same desktop image with the exception of a few desktops need special additional software. I push out printers via GPO and it was
    running fine until recently. The client pc would reset it default printer every time the pc reboot or log off. First, there was only a handful and now it spreads to almost half the number of pc are being effect with this problem. I've tried different
    approaches, even completely rewrite the GPOs with no success. The pc would reset to either PDFCreator or OneNote or XPS or Fax. I found that if I re-image the client desktop the default printer would remain default but I'm keeping that as the
    last option since it involves with data migrating and probably consumes a whole lot of time (200+ effected pc). Any leads or suggestions are much appreciated, my clients are not happy and they are chewing me alive :)
     I must add that setting default printer via GPO is not an option for me since people with different groups or branches are sharing the same building/floor.

    Hi,
    I’m not able to get security clearance to send these files to public, I apologize for that, is there a particular section/part that
    I should pay attention to from that report? I went through a report just now and I’m not sure what to look for. Would you mind to give me some direction? Thanks again
    >> Please try to review the promon log. The Device value in the following Registry path contains the user's default printer:
    HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\Device.
    We can use process monitor to view what issue cause the registry key reset.
    There is a scenarios for your reference:
    One or more network printer connection under
    HKCU\Printers\Connections\<NetworkPrinterSubkey>
    are missing the "Server" registry key.
    Resolution:
    Start Regedit.exe
    Export HKCU\Printers\Connections to have a backup of the key
      View the network printer registry subkeys under HKCU\Printers\Connections if on the right hand side it is missing the registry value "Server" then delete the Network Printer subkey under HKCU\Printers\Connections
    Longer Term Solution: Remove the bad Network Printer Share from the server and/or update the print driver on the print server.

  • Fix for continuous reboot after installing Service Pack 3 in Windows XP

    After contacting HP Technical Support and speaking to a supervisor we were able to solve the problem of Windows continuously rebooting after installing SP3. Here are the steps that fixed the problem with my HP Pavilion running on an AMD processor. The steps are actually fairly straight forward and easy....
    Issue: The computer reboots continuously after installing Windows XP service pack 3
    Computer reboots continuously after installing Windows XP service pack 3 on AMD systems. The problem is that with some configurations, SP3 causes the computer to crash during boot, and Windows XP, by default, is set up to automatically reboot when it crashes. That is why you end up in the endless rebooting scenario.
    Cause:
    On HP computers, the same Windows installation disc image for Intel processor based PC's is deployed for the AMD processor based computers as well. Because the original installation image for both Intel and AMD is the same, all have the intelppm.sys driver installed and running. That driver provides power management on Intel-based computers. On an AMD-based computer, amdk8.sys provides the same functionality for power management.
    Symptoms:
    Ordinarily, having intelppm.sys running on an AMD-based computer appears to cause no problems. However, on the first reboot after a Service Pack 3 installation, it causes a big problem. The computer either fails to boot, or crashes with a STOP error code of 0x0000007e.
    You may not see the error code because the computer reboots too fast. In order to get the error message, you need to set an option during startup. To do so, open the windows advanced menu by tapping the f8 key on startup. Then select the "Disable automatic restart on system failure" option.
    Solution:
    If you have an AMD-based computer, however, you do not need the intelppm.sys driver and can disable it. There are three methods in order to do this.
    Step 1: Please try to log on the system in safe mode.
    1. While using Safe mode open the command prompt....  Start, All Programs, Accessories, Command Prompt
    Run the following command in the command prompt just like it's typed: sc config intelppm start= disabled
    Step 2:
    If the issue persists, please try to log on or boot the system in recovery console (refer to the web document)
    2. Using recovery console:
    If you booted into the recovery console, from a command prompt, type: disable intelppm
    Step 3: Please check in registry.
    3. Using windows registry:
    1. Run regedit
    2. Click on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    3. From the File menu, select "Load hive"
    4. Navigate to %systemdriver%\Windows\System32\Config on the dead system and select the file name System
    5. Name it something you can remember, such as "horked"
    6. Navigate to horked\ControlSet001\Services\IntelPPM
    7. Double click the Start value and set it to 4
    8. If you did what I did and completely messed things up by running a disk check previously, navigate to ControlSet001\Control\SessionManager. Open the BootExecute value and clear out the autochk entries.
    9. Repeat steps 6-8 for the other control sets.
    10. Reboot

    For future reference: Service pack 3 Installation steps:
    Before installing the service pack 3 update, please follow the steps listed above and save yourself much time and effort.
    To uninstall service pack 3, I suggest that you uninstall it from add/remove programs.
    Step 1:
    Uninstall service pack 3 from add/remove programs:
    1. Click Start.
    2. Select Run.
    3. Type appwiz.cpl in the run field.
    4. Click OK.
    5. Click change or remove programs.
    6. Select the program -service pack 3 that you want to uninstall or remove.
    7. Click Remove button.
    8. It will pop up the message stating that "Are you sure you want to remove the programs".
    9. Click Yes. It will help you to remove or uninstall the installed programs from add and remove programs.
    Step 2: If the issue persists, I suggest you to perform system restore and then try to install the service pack 3 after performing the steps mentioned above in regards to removing the intelppm.sys Driver.

    I hope this helps someone who is having this problem. It sure took me a minute to get it all figured out. :0)

    Still useful as of 12/30/11. Have ten Lenovo 5042 computers with downgrade licenses to run XP and have a ghosted image from another Lenovo 5042 having and Intel cpu. My target computers all have AMD cpus in them and the image would continuously reboot on
    the AMD computers.
    Used method 1 and it cleared the problem instantly, many thanks for the post and the time and effort it took to dig up the answer..

  • New imaged machines fail to complete reboot after install

    New imaged machines fail to complete reboot after install of 10.4.9 image
    Running off both 10.4.9 Server and a 10.3.9 Server machines imaged from the same disk image and different disk images fail to reboot after imaging is complete. All machines go through various stages of reboot some initial most all the way to waiting for finder to boot up on desktop. Nothing is wrong with the items, installed the entire image is installed if you looking at the machines via firewire. All .nbi sets were created under 10.3.9 (to avoid 10.4.9 problems) all disk images with Disk Utility all .nbi with 10.3.9 Network Image utility.
    Anyone any clues been driving me nuts for about a week and I have 500 ibooks to image.
    Also the reference machines for the images are same ibooks that will be imaged, so its the same platform.
    various   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    All is the same for me except I used a 10.4.9 server only to create the disk image using Disk utility, and all other work ison a 10.3.9 server. Greay or blue screen on reboot otherwise machines look fine.
    I am having this same issue....
    Order of events as follows...
    Build image on source mac (10.4.9)
    Create image on server for netinstall from source mac

    Set Netinstall image on server via netboot (10.4.9)
    Install Netinstall image on target mac via netboot on
    server (10.4.9)
    Installs fine and says successful.....Apon reboot all
    i get is the grey screen with the apple and spinning
    icon....Sits there and doesn't change....
    On further inspection I notice that there are things

  • Snipping Tool stopping working after installing Office 2013 Pro (32 bit) on Win 7 Pro 64bit - help?

    Have been looking at many forums to fix this:
    ran SFC - no errors
    rebooted multiple times
    all Windows Updates are current
    don't want to disable antivirus, as some have suggested
    Uploaded a registry fix, which several have suggested - no soap
    Note:
    all other features of this PC work great - zero issues.
    the issue starting right after installing Office 2013 Pro - 32bit.  It runs fine.
    "Paint" runs fine.  "Print Screen" works fine - image goes to clipboard, and I can paste anywhere.
    get the standard message everyone posts in forums: 
    "The Snipping Tool is not working on your computer right now. Restart your computer, and then try again. If the problem persists, contact your system administrator."
    Have tried other free third-party tools, and they are cumbersome, and I love the MS Snipping Tool.
    Advice?  Tips?

  • Problem with getting PDF Options after installing Acrobat Pro 8.0

    Hello
    I have some problems after installing Acrobat Pro 8.0 on my MacBook Pro.
    In the past I worked with Acrobat Pro 7.0.8. Then when I choose the printer Adobe PDF 7.0 I had always a pulldown menu in the Printer Settings. to decided what kind of PDF I want (Best Quality, PDF/1, PDF/3, Low Quality, etc)
    After Intallion Acrobat Pro 8.0, I had both Adobe PDF 7.0 & 8.0 availible in the Printer Menu, but either the PDF Options is not availible for both (in some programs) or for both it is visible as "AdobePDFPDE70" but it has a line through it and I cann't select it.
    Then I delete Adobe 7.0 & 8.0 from the folder "/usr/libexec/cups/backend/" and started Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.0 again. It recognised that an Adobe PDF need to be installed but again it is not availible or AdobePDFPDE70 has a line through.
    I have still installed Adobe Pro 7.08 on my MacBook Pro because their is no PitStop Professional availible for Adobe Acrobat 8.0
    Who can help me to make my PDF Options Availible. I also looked at the Adobe Site for a Solutions but I found only 4 Threads for Acrobat 8 in combination with OS X and it was regarding other problems.
    I work with German OS X and german Versions of Acrobat and PitStop
    Regards

    MacBook Pro 17"   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Hello
    I solved the problem. The files "AdobePDFPDE700.plugin" & "AdobePDFPDE800.plugin" conflict each other.
    I solved it in the following way
    - quit Adobe Acrobat
    - delete Adobe PDF 7.0 & 8.0 From the Printer Manager
    - remove the file "AdobePDFPDE700.plugin" & "AdobePDFPDE800.plugin" from /Library/Printers/PPD Plugins/
    - restart Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.0 and activate its self repair function from within the Help menu
    - quit Acrobat and re-boot your Mac
    - a Printer & "Adobe PDF 8.0" will be availible. Now the PDF Options are availible in all the Programs I working with!
    I experienced that the Acrobat Pro 7.08 is very unstabil after the Installation of 8.0, let's hope that PitStop will bring very soon a new Version compatible with Acrobat 8.0

  • Can't load previously installed Acrobat 9 Pro after my CS6 trial expired.

    Can't load previously installed Acrobat 9 Pro after my CS6 trial expired. Keeps asking to buy the trial version or license the software (in reference to the CS6 trial, even though I'm loading my own Acrobat 9 Pro from my CS4 Creative Suite I purchased and had previously installed--still installed to my knowledge...at least I never uninstalled it anyway, if that helps)
    Thank you!

    Yes. I have tried to repair it, but it still didn't work. I had to completely uninstall - reboot - then do a clean install. Works beautifully for a few weeks, then nothing.

  • After installing Acrobat/Reader on Windows 7 or Vista, icons of all applications/file-types change t

    After installing Acrobat/Reader on Windows 7 or Vista, icons of all applications/file-types change to Acrobat/Reader icon and double clicking on any icon/file launches Acrobat/Reader (instead of the native application associated to the file type). Is there an easy fix for this problem?

    I'm sorry, but I wasn't aware of a native PDF viewer for Windows.
    Nonetheless, if you want to change your default PDF application in Windows, you need to right click on any .PDF file, select "Properties",
    then "Change",
    then select the program you want to open a PDF with.

  • No Adobe PDF menu in Office 2000 after installing Acrobat 9

    Hello everybody, I have an urgent problem.
    Preliminaries: I use Windows XP (SP3), with 2 GB RAM. Until yesterday, I had an installation of Adobe CS2 Premium. Acrobat 7 professional comes with the PDFMaker plug-in for Office, so I could create PDF files directly from Word... and all was well.
    But: yesterday, I installed Adobe CS4 Design Standard *without removing CS2 first* (after having made sure this was possible -- for the time being, I'll have to run Photoshop, Illustrator & InDesign CS2 'parallel' to their CS4 cousins, as I'm in the middle of a large project). I was aware of the fact that Acrobat is a 'jealous' program, and that installing Acrobat 9 Pro (which is shipped with my version of CS4) would uninstall ('upgrade', the CS4 installer calls it) the previous version of Acrobat. OK, no problem... or so I thought.
    However, I now no longer have an "Adobe Acrobat" menu or tool bar in Word (nor in Excel, nor in any other Office 2000 application). Apparently, the PDFMaker plug-in isn't installed (or doesn't work with Office 2000?).
    So -- what should I do? There's a PDFMaker folder in the Acrobat 9 folder tree, but I have absolutely no idea how to proceed. Is there any way to install the plug-in manually?
    And, if the PDFMaker plug-in does not work with Office 2K, are ther any other Office plugins out there to help me create PFD files directly from Word?
    Any help is highly appreciated.

    Just a quick follow up; I had seen several fixes that directed the user to click on the help menu, then choose "disabled items" then enable the pdf item...the only problem was that when I clicked on the Help menu, there was nothing referencing "disabled items"! In frustration, I finally called Adobe tech support, and the person I spoke with had me click on Help, then About Microsoft Office Word...lo and behold! at the bottom right was a button labeled "disabled items". Problem solved; hope at least one person reads this and avoids the frustration of looking for something in the wrong place.
    Ok, so it wasn't a quick follow-up...sorry!

  • After installing Adobe Premiere Pro product CS6 in the program is not active PlayBack

    After installing Adobe Premiere Pro product CS6 in the program is not active
    PlayBack button setting when creating sequence.
    Windows 7 64-bit. Intel Xeon 2, RAM 12 MB. Mxo2

    Hi,
    Thanks for posting that screenshot. It appears that you have opened your Sequence Settings for a DV-NTSC sequence and have made a circle around the "Edit Settings" button.
    Since you chose to create a DV sequence, you cannot change those settings.
    Do you have DV NTSC clips? If so, these are the correct settings.
    If you do not have DV NTSC clips, do not be concerned. Just create the sequence.
    Once you drag a non-DV clip into the DV sequence, it's OK.
    You have the option of changing the Sequence Settings to match those of your clip in a new dialog box.
    Click "Change Sequence Settings" in the dialog box.
    I hope that helps.
    Thanks,
    Kevin
