Does Adobe Acrobat Pro or Reader mount all listed network folders in Mac OS X 10.6?

I administer several Macintoshes on a managed network. Recently, we migrated most machines to Mac OS X 10.6. Now, when users navigate to a network folder to open a document from Acrobat Pro 9, Acrobat Pro X or Acrobat Reader X, any folder shown in the "Open" window from Acrobat is mounted on the user's desktop. The protocol doesn't matter - the server could be accessed via smb or afp. If the file is held in a network folder near the bottom of the alphabet, all folders that are exposed in the "Open" window mount. Not only does this create clutter and confusion for the user, but sometimes it crashes Acrobat.
This behavior is present only in Acrobat Reader, Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and X. No other application, Adobe or not has this affect navigating through the open file function.
This behavior is present after complete uninstall/reinstalls of the applications.
This behavior is present in any account – local or network.
This behavior is present on any Macintosh running Max OS X 10.6.
This behavior is NOT present in OS X 10.5.
Can anyone else in this forum duplicate or explain this behavior?

Hi Onewizard,
I tried and checked this on different version of Acrobat and Reader however not able to replicate this behavior. I am on MAC 10.6.8

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro and Reader Freeze

    Everytime I open Adobe Acrobat Pro or Reader I am unabe to open the preferences menu.  Program freezes up.  Also when I hit print the program also freezes.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times with no success.

    Which version (and sub-version)? Why do you have both Reader and Acrobat installed? Before AAX this was not a recommended combination at all.
    You should be able to delete the Reader and repair Acrobat. If you do not have the most current version of Acrobat, you should do an update(s). If you uninstall and reinstall again, before the reinstall, deleted any left over parts of the Acrobat folder and run a registry cleanup utility (the MS one if you can get it -- MS quit distributing it -- or CCleaner). Then reinstall. Typically the repair and the updates should take care of things unless you have gotten a corrupt plug-in included somehow.

    Creative cloud do not need a serial number. it will be using your Adobe ID on which you have purchased the creative cloud membership.
    So you need to login with your Adobe ID and password to activate the cloud membership.
    Log out & log back in of the CC Desktop App.

    What exactly is happening when you try to update.
    How are you trying to update it, using patch or doing a check for update from application itself.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro to Reader. HELP pls :(

    ... i open with pro:  secure settings for 2 users WORK
    ... i open with reader: secure settings dont work (both users can only read and not read / read-print

  • Why does Adobe Premiere Pro offer more effects for the windows platform than Mac?

    Every time I find a cool new effect that I would like to use it seems it is only offered on the windows platform.  I am a mac user and wondering why this is.

    A lot of that is inertia, though. 3 or 4 years ago, I would have laughed in your face if you'd told me that we were going to move to a PC-based workflow. Then everybody stopped using FCP, Apple refused to update their Pro towers for, like, 3 years, and released a completely redesigned MacPro that has caused us more headaches than it's worth. PPro makes it super easy to bounce projects back and forth between our Macs and PCs. Mainstream computer hardware has become powerful enough that you don't need a professional workstation to edit video and do basic motion graphics. This is totally anecdotal, I realize, but our PCs are every bit as stable (or unstable!) as our Macs, and we've yet to have a single virus on either Mac or PC (mostly because I don't let warez anywhere near our boxes...). At this point, I literally can't think of a single reason to stick with Mac as a platform; if I can put together a $2000 PC that'll perform more-or-less as well as the $3000 MacPro, why would I choose the more expensive option? I guess you could say "ProRes", but I've never really been a fan of ProRes. Besides, DNxHR will be out in a month or two; that'll be the final nail in the ol' ProRes coffin.
    I honestly don't mean this to come off as an insult, but I think that in 2014, anyone who tries to tell you that Macs are somehow superior to PCs just doesn't know what they're talking about. Aside from the price, the playing field is pretty level... I hope I don't come off as being an anti-Apple, pro-PC fanboi; I'm just a big fan of rational, informed decisions.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro X and Adobe Reader 9 compatibility with Mac.

    Does Adobe Acrobat Pro X version 10.0.0 and Adobe Reader 9 version 9.2.0 work with Maverick or Yosemite? I don't mind to have a Maverick OS (though may not be easy to get unless old stock).

    Hi Novetan,

  • Device does not appear in list - Adobe Acrobat Pro X on Windows 7

    I recently had a scanner device replaced on my system.  We uninstalled the old one and installed the new one.  All drivers are up to date on the new scanner.
    When I go to Create PDF From Scanner - Custom Presets - the device list still shows my old scanner and my new scanner is not listed.  I have re-booted my system and still get the same problem.  How do I get Adobe Acrobat Pro X to refresh the list of available devices?

    Hi Todd,
    I haven't heard other reports of this (though there was an issue quite some time ago where deleting pages on this combination of Acrobat/OS was challenging).
    Can you please tell me what happens when you try to replace pages? Do you get an error message? Are you able to manipulate pages otherwise (delete, extract, and so on)? Is this issue unique to one file, or does it happen with all PDF files?
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Just purchased the "Adobe Acrobat Pro" but now I cant download the software

    I just paid $180.00 to purchase the "Adobe Acrobat Pro" After I provide all necessary information and set up an account, I was then instructed to download and install the software, however when I click on the software download button, it does NOT download the software. Why will it not download the software?

    Assistanttolindsey the Adobe Download Assistant will download the installation files for Adobe Acrobat Professional XI.  By default they are saved to your download folder.  You can begin the installation process from there.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 quits

    Why does Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 quit unexpectedly while I am making corrections on a document? I get an error message that says "Application Adobe quit unexpectedly." Then I have to relaunch.

    You have to provide mroe info for sure.
    In most instances I find that PDF document that is either corrupt or does not have embedded font crashes.
    Check fonts and PDF.

  • How Do I Drag Select Multiple Comments or Annotations in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9

    How Do I Drag Select Multiple Comments or Annotations in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9

    Hello Sara,
    Yes, command+click will work to select multiple comments. However, I'm working with some PDFs that have a substantial number of comments and this is taking quite some time to select them all. Additionally, it is tricky to click some of them, and if I mis-click, all the selection work is undone and everything becomes deselected. I'd like to know if there is a simpler way to select many multiple comments, such as a simple drag selection in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.

  • Does Adobe Acrobat 6 support PDFFILENAME as did as did with version 5?

    I posted a question earlier to ask how to remove "save pdf File as" dialog.
    It turned out that the ExtEscape function not working right and return 0 with adobe acrobat 6 even though the same code return 1 (success) with adobe acrobat 5.
    "The return value is zero if the escape is not implemented."
    I did a complete adobe acrobat 6 install. How did this could happen?
    I am using an older version of pdfwctrl.h with copyright Copyright 1994 - 2001.
    Please help.
    Here is the code
    static int PDFWriterInit(

    PDFINPUT pdfInput;
    PDFDocInfo pdfdocinfo;
    ZeroMemory(&pdfdocinfo, sizeof pdfdocinfo);

    strcpy(pdfdocinfo.subject, "my_subject");
    strcpy(pdfdocinfo.keywords, "my_keywords");
    // Although it is possible to set the following fields, we do not suggest that
    // you do so. If you leave these blank PDF Writer will fill in appropriate values.
    // If you set the date yourself and it does not meet the PDF specification it may
    // cause trouble for readers of the PDF. PDFWriter will set the appropriate date
    // using the system clock, use the application name from the DOCINFO struct and
