How can I keep PDF files from closing spontaneously?

When I open a PDF file in Adobe reader it closes spontaneously in about 6 seconds. How can I fix that?

I've also been having the problem of spontaneously closing PDFs, since installing Reader XI. The problem is not systematic. Sometimes PDFs do not open at first attempt but do eventually open after two, three or four tries, then spontaneously close after anywhere from one second to several minutes to an hour (while I am annotating them). The files seem to stablise after some period of working on them. Some files do not crash at all.
I thought it might be embedded links to a server in India that cause the problem, until I had the same thing happen with a PDF I was looking at as a result of a web search. It does not happen with old PDFs, saved to my disc before Reader XI.
No one yet has been able to diagnose the problem...

  • How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?

    How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?
    I have made a LabVIEW program where I have possibility to read a PDF document.  When I made this LabVIEW program it was Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 that was installed on the PC. Lather when the Acrobat Reader was upgraded to version 6.0, there was an error when VI tries to launch the LabVIEW program. And Later again when we upgraded to Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 I must again do some changes and rebuild the EXE files again
    It isn't so very big job to do the changes in one single LabVIEW program, but we have built a lot of LabVIEW programs so this take time to due changes every time vi update Acrobat Reader. (We have build EXE files.)
    The job is to right click the ActiveX container and Click "Insert ActiveX Object", then I can brows the computer for the new version of acrobat Reader. After this I must rebuild all the "methods" in the Activex call to make the VI executable again.
    Is there a way to build LabVIEW program so I don't have to do this job every time we update Acrobat Reader?
    This LabVIEW program is written in LabVIEW 6.1, but I se the problem is the same in LabVIEW 8.2.

    hi there
    try the vi
    ..vi.lib\platform\browser.llb\Open Acrobat Document.vi
    it uses DDE or the command line to run an external application (e.g. Adobe Acrobat)

    Yes you can definitely do this. You'll need an app on the iPad that handles PDF viewing and editing. There are many around - two of the best I've seen are GoodReader and PDF Expert.
    In iTunes when you iPad is connected to your PC, go to the Apps tab and scroll down and you'll see the File Sharing section. You can drag files to there to share them to your iPad.
    You could also look at online file sync services like PDF to ePub Maker if you prefer not to have to connect your iPad to a PC

    How can I upload a .pdf file from my mac to iPhone 3G?
    Or is there an app that will allow me to that?
    Thanks in advance

    The app called "Air Sharing" allows you to do that. Connect to a wifi network, run the program and you can mount your iphone as a drive using Finder. Upload all the PDFs you like, and you can open them from within the Air Sharing app. Also, you can view most image files, most office files, etc.

    On your iPad open your PDF in the Adobe Reader app

    Select 'Save to Acrobat.com'
    Select the 'Get Started' button
    Enter you Adobe ID and password
    Your file should be saved up to Acrobat.com
    Go to your PC
    Launch your internet browser
    Open https://files.acrobat.com/
    Log into Acrobat.com with the same Adobe ID as you used on your iPad
    Your file should be available
    Select the file and select the Download icon
    You can download the file to your hard drive
    Another option is
    Go to you PC
    Launch Adobe Reader
    Select File > Open
    From the Open Dialog select the dropdown arrow beside 'Open from online Account' - select Acrobat.com
    You will be prompted to enter your Adobe ID and Password
    You should then see your PDF in the listings
    Select to open
    Once open you can save to your desktop

  • How can I transfer PDF files from my Apple to my iPad?

    I can transfer "Word" documents from my Apple to my iPad by adding, within iTunes, the required files to the App. Pages and then sync.
    I can also add PDF files to my Pages App in iTunes using the same method, BUT I can't open them in Pages - only the Word documents open.
    Do I need a different to read PDF files in iPad or am I just doing it wrongly?
    Help - please

    I don't have the Pages app (but I think that it may only supports exporting as PDF, not reading them), but if you have the iBooks app then you can sync them to that via iTunes : add the PDFs to your computer's iTunes (File > Add File To Library) and they should then appear in the Books part of your Library, and you can then sync them to the iBooks app via the Books tab that appears on the right-hand side of iTunes when you've selected the iPad 'device' on the left-hand side.
    There are also other free PDF apps e.g. Adobe Reader

  • How can transfer my PDF file from my Computer to my iPad ? Ps: my computer not Mac .

    I have books and files in my computer I want to relocate it to my iPad to read it, what should I do? Step by step please .
    My PC is not Mac.

    You first need one or more apps on your iPad that support the types of file that you want to copy over to it, the iPad doesn't have a file system link a 'normal' computer, everything has to be stored within an app.
    For PDFs there are free apps such as Apple's iBooks app and also Adobe Reader - and paid-for apps such as GoodReader (which also supports read-only of word and excel documents). For documents the options include Apple's Pages app for Word documents, Numbers for Excel spreadsheets and Keynote for Powerpoint. And from third-parties apps such as Documents To Go ('premium' version) and QuickOffice Pro HD. As to how you then get the file to your chosen app will depend upon what the app supports - different apps will have different ways of copying their content to/from a computer e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via your wifi network, email, dropbox etc.
    For iBooks, which supports PDFs, you should be able to add the PDFs to your iTunes library via File > Add To Library, and they should go into the Books section of your library. You can then sync them to iBooks by connecting your iPad to your computer and selecting it on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you have iTunes on your computer then you can enable the left-hand sidebar via control-S), and on the right-hand side use the Books tab to select and sync them to the iBooks app.

  • App or podcast downloaded to iphone is deleted from iphone and transferred to iTunes 11.  How can I keep the file from being deleted from the iPhone?

    I recently updated iTunes from version 10.x to 11.  In version 10, I could download a podcast or an app to my iPhone from the app store, then the app or podcast would co COPIED to iTunes during a sync.  Now with version 11, when I sync, the app or podcast is deleted from my iPhone and MOVED to iTunes.  How can I get back the old feature of making a copy?  This is a very dumb thing that happens in iTunes and I can not believe that I am the only one to complain abou this.  Please help me.  What do I need to change in iTunes to keep my copy on the iPhone.
    Thanks to all you geniouses out there!

    Not 100% sure of your question.  If you are wanting to delete apps from itunes just right click then delete then empty recycle bin.

  • How can i open pdf files from the web without saving them

    Windows 7
    Firefox 5
    Adobe Reader 9
    when i want to see a web based pdf file i have to save it before opening it instead of it just opening in a pdf window.

    You can't.
    Those PDFs are only accessible on the Mac.
    They can not even be accessed by iOS.

  • How can I keep Adobe Reader from closing 30 secs after I open it? Windows Vista

    My Adobe Reader closes after 30 seconds or so of being opened. I've been making changes to some of my windows settings in an effort to reduce risk of viruses and malware, etc. I don't know why it affected the time Adobe is allowed to stay open and so don't know how to fix the problem. How can I fix this?

    Three things to try:
    Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

  • How do I transfer PDF files from PC to IPAD using Itunes 12.1.2.  Previous versions let me drag file in Itunes to Ipad and files appeared under Ibook but can't get it to work in latest 12.1.2 version.

    How do I transfer PDF files from PC (Windows 7) to IPAD using Itunes 12.1.2.  I would like to do files manually rather then auto synch.  Previous versions let me drag file in Itunes to Ipad and files appeared under Ibook and then I could move them to an appropriate collection title.  The interface appears to have changed in the latest ITunes version and I am not sure what the proper procedure is.

    King_Penguin - Thanks it worked perfectly.  I had my pdf files copied into ITunes on my PC but when I clicked on a pdf file to copy it I thought the sidebar would appear with my IPAD name and then I would drag it over.  I didn't realize that I needed to click-and start dragging it towards the left-hand side for the sidebar to appear.  It worked like a charm - THANKYOU!!!

  • How to create a pdf file from multiple images ?

    Dear All,
    I want to create a SINGLE page pdf file from two or more page size images that are combined to make a single page pdf. Again, this question is on pdfs that are made out of several, atleast  two color images and a black-and-white mask for one of them.
    I have such pdf files from an unknown source (the producer is edited out) whereby there are three tiff images, obtained using the well known pdfimages extractor.
    When I want to make a pdf out of tiff or png or other image formats, I right click and tell Adobe Acrobat to make a pdf.
    However, I dont know how I can give a command to select say,  three tif images and specify which is the mask for which and then join  them in a way that I get the pdf from the composite of the two color images and a mask for one of them.
    Please help me out.
    I am a little familiar with the pdf structure skeleton and when necessary, fixed xref tables in one of my favorite editors. A few years ago, I also wrote a bunch of javascripts to make some annotations and needed some automation and used some itext type libraries. However, I need your help in this problem as I am now rusty and forgot some of what I studied to solve my earlier problems. This is a new problem for me. Gentle hints from you would be very nice to help me in this problem. Please specify if necessary what manual and pages to read. in the pdfspec.
    Best Regards

    I would gladly mention that I am working on windows platform, preferably XP.
    I can also work on linux for free products that come with it.

    But adding other products, for the help of an adobe products user,
    even if it outside adobe, shall add greater prestige to your company
    and give impression of user-centeredness.

    Well, just add the few pdf stanzas since you are proficient on it and
    I am presently a little rusty as I mentioned. Just asking a little
    extra yard, not even to go an extra mile.

    Well, ascii format or uncompressed format that is human readable. I
    know its a binary file, but human readable ascii version of it.
    I hope you can give me some stanza and various other approaches
    possible so I can select or combine things for myself. I see only a
    miniscule number of posts claiming to have written masks in this forum
    and then with no details.
