How do I deal with "Acces Denied" error when trying to print to Adobe PDF printer driver

Windows 7 64 bit OS (updated)
Adobe Acrobat XI (11.0.06.70)
I am unable to create a PDF file from within the Windows 7 print dialog. Each time, I receive a terse "Access Denied" error followed by the display below (the progress bar never advances). I thought upgrading to Adobe Acrobat XI might fix this but no such luck. It seems that others have experienced similar issues. I noticed in the display below that Adobe is trying to create the file in a folder which does not exist (at least I can't see it even after setting my preferences to display hidden files). I have the hope that, if the folder were present and accessible, Adobe would create the file without trouble. Is there a way to instruct Adobe Acrobat XI to create this temporary file in a different location? One of my frustrations is that I used to be able to print Adobe Acrobat files without trouble on the same computer. I wonder whether the use of a registry cleaner may have contributed to my problem.
What are the best practices for addressing the Access Denied and inability to print problems I've encountered?
Thanks for any help you can provide in sorting out this problem.
Best,
Matt

I have been having the exact same problem with Adobe Acrobat X. I have uninstalled and reinstalled numerous times and applied all the latest updates. Every time I try to print ANTHING to the Adobe PDF print driver, the software hangs (MS Office, webpage, or other programs). When I finally kill the process using Task Manager, I find the little "Access Denied" box. This has been happening for nearly one year. I have limped along since I have other computers to use. I have attempted to find answers on this forum in the past, and no one seems to have a clear answer to the problem.
I, too, was tempted to upgrade to XI, but Matt's post settled the matter, since it did not help him.
I am using Win 7 Home (64 bit) and until this issue started, I have had no problem with AA X.
Where are the Adobe experts when you need them? Please help us.

How do I deal with a Runtime Error on Adobe Acrobat 9.5?

How do I deal with a Runtime Error on Adobe Acrobat 9.5? The instructions say to contact the support team but I have to pay in order to do so.

What operating system and what is the statement of the error. Typically you would first run a repair on Acrobat from the help menu (or in Windows you can do that from the Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs).

I would merge them before the migration. Also, spend some time doing any batch changes of names and dates beforehand too.
iPhoto Library Manager has good merge and duplicate search facilities.

Acrobat X Pro v10.1.9: Cannot print to Adobe PDF Printer (access is denied)

Hello.
Suddenly I was not able to print Office 2013 files / Autocad files / Internet Explorer pages directly to Adobe PDF Printer anymore on my WINDOWS 7 Ultimate x64 sp1 computer.
I have tried to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat X Pro, but the issue was not resolved.
Neither after updating to the latest version (10.1.9).
When I try to print from any software (Office 2013 / AutoCAD 2012 / Others), are displayed two windows:
a) the first one named "Printing (not responding)", with the information: "now printing the file..."
b) the second one named "Save PDF File As", to where I do not have access to the filename fied to insert it neither to click the "cancel" button to abort the print dialog. It seems that this window is not active.
I have to click on the red "X" button on the first window to shutdown the application. Here is the error dialog I got:

When I try to print a webpage in Internet Explorer using the same printer, I get an "Adobe PDF" window stating "Access is denied".
Can anyone help me restoring this feature?

The reinstall is typically the last ditch effort to do. The first step is Help>Repair and Help>Updates. As far as Office 2013, the PDF Maker of AA X is not compatible and you can only print. In your list of errors it showed a problem with AcroTray.exe. As a first step, go to the print and select print-to-file. The file will be a PS file (maybe with a PRN extension). Once the printer if finished, open the file in Distiller to complete the process. If that is successful, then the problem is with AcroTray. Check your running tasks to be sure AcroTray is indeed running. If not, that is likely the problem. If it is, then restart it (it is located in the Acrobat folder). AcroTray provides the interface between the PS creation and Distiller to automate the process of creating the PDF.

Publishing cancels with "access denied" error when publishing updates to desktop layout

Hello, all,
Wondering if anyone else has run into this issue: we update and republish our help projects frequently. We're currently using a layout based on the desktop layout (colors, fonts, and some other screen elements have changed). The project generates successfully. We publish via file transfer and have the "republish all" setting selected. Sometimes when we publish our multiscreen HTML5 layout, it cancels about halfway through the estimated time with a "publishing cancelled - access denied" error. If we delete the layout folder ("desktop" in this case) from the publishing location and retry publishing, it succeeds.
Has anyone else encountered this issue? If so, what fixes (other than deleting content and republishing) have you found?
FYI, we also publish the same projects to the WebHelp Pro layout without any issues.
Thanks in advance for your help.

This problem used to occur with Publishing from Rh but I have not seen it for a long time, either myself or in posts.
Maybe Item 5 at http://www.grainge.org/pages/snippets/snippets.htm#webhelp will help.

Access Denied error when trying to print over the network

I just upgraded my Internet service and leased a new modem. My laptop is connected to the network and is able to browse the Internet. I have file and printer shared tuned on on both the desktop and the laptop. The printer is listed on my laptop, but I cannot print over the network to my HP PSC 1401 All In One. I get an Access Denied error even though the printer should still be connected to the network.

Getting error when trying to append to existing pdf.

Hello. I am using Acrobat 9 Pro to save emails. When using Internet Explorer, I press print and when the document print window opens up I right click on the document and select "Append to existing PDF" or "Convert to Adobe PDF." This used to work for me. Now all I get is an error message "An error has occurred in the script on this page" with "res://C:\Program Files(x86)/Common Files/Adobe/Acrobat/ActiveX/AcroIEFavClient.dll/AcroIEAppend.html." It doesn't matter if I select yes of no to the message "do you wish to continue running script" question. It just closes the window and does nothing.
I am running Acrobat 9 Pro, Windows 7 Professional (64) Service Pack 1, Internet Explorer 9. I also have Acrobat Reader X on my computer. I think it was automatically installed before I put Acrobat 9 Pro on.

You don't mention which version of Acrobat, but I doubt it is fully compatible with MSIE 9 which was released after Acrobat X no less Acrobat 9. Adobe doesn't support anything but Reader X with Acrobat X. Any other combination of Reader with Acrobat is known to cause problems. So you have two avenues to explore. First uninstall Reader X and then re-install Acrobat 9. Then upgrade to Acrobat 9.4.5. See if everything works ok. You may be good to go. If it still doesn't work, then you may have a compatibility issue between Acrobat 9 and MSIE 9. Maybe if someone is running that combination successfully, they can chime in here.

How can I Deal with this 2 errors?

I'm so desperated I can't even run the HelloWorldApp, because it has this error in the interpreter (I compiled it and Zero erros):
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundErros
and in other program I have this
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: detail.number () at Factorial.main
But I DO have a method named number which has been inclosed in the object detail.
Please Help Me! I'm really Frustrated (hey, you may be like me if HelloWorldApp doesn't evev runs!!!)

I'm so desperated I can't even run the HelloWorldApp,
because it has this error in the interpreter (I
compiled it and Zero erros):
Exception in thread "main"
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundErrosYou did compile your file using "javac" correct?
And you are not using "package" in your source code correct?
Once compiled you need to be in the directory where the class file is.
and in other program I have this
Exception in thread "main"
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: detail.number () at
Factorial.main
But I DO have a method named number which has been
inclosed in the object detail.No you do not. What that error says is that at that particular point it can not find a method that matches the way you are using the method.
That could be because the method doesn't exist. Or because the signature is wrong. Or because it is private and it needs to be public. Or because it is not part of "detail" but is part of something else.

Access denied Error when trying to run Tomcat that came with JWSDP

Hi fellows,
I went through the forums and found same error posted by someone but no soultion to that.
So hope this time i get lucky.
I am running this on win 98(it really sucks)
After I try to run the startup.bat i get the error:
Using CATALINA_BASE: C:\JWSDP-1_0-EA2
Using CATALINA_HOME: C:\JWSDP-1_0-EA2
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: C:\JWSDP-1_0-EA2\temp
Using JAVA_HOME: C:\JDK13~1.1_0
Access is denied.
I don't know where to put the build.properties. Any helpful comment will be greately appreciated.
Regards,

Folks
Obviously the EA(Early Access) is just that! I've managed to get around the problem, and run a sample (ConverterBean) using JWSDP with Tomcat on Win98. Here's the workaround:
1> In the startup.bat, replace "start" with "run". Type "startup" from cmd line. This will start Tomcat in the same window.
2> Create the build.properties file in the same location as build.xml. For the Getting Started example, this will be in <jwsdp-home>\docs\tutorial\example\gs.
3> Once you build the sample files, copy the classes directory and index.jsp to <jwsdp-home>\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF
4> Update setclasspath.bat in <jwsdp-home>\bin directory to include <jwsdp-home>\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\classes.
5> In the browser, type http://localhost:8080/index.jsp
BINGO!!!!
Cheers!

How do I fix the "Expected handle" error when trying to transfer a file with FireFTP?

I'm trying to upload a ZIP file to my FTP folder with Blackbaud and cannot do so. I've entered all the parameters exactly as instructed by Blackbaud and all connections look good but when I go to transfer the file, I get the following message: "Expected handle: /users/B67E610BAA01/"H:\Downloads\BUMFS RE7 Database.zip" "BUMFS RE7 Database.zip"." All I can do is click "OK" and nothing happens other than seeing a repeated loop in the log that alternates between "noop" and "ok."

Make sure your account has the proper permissions to write to the location. I ran into this exact same problem, and that was my solution, anyway...

Access Denied Error when trying to do a Search

Hi,
We are using the BP for CRM 5.0 and we are facing that the iviews are working but when we go into ie. a new Service Order and in one field we click on the icon to do a search of the value to fill in the text field, we are getting this error:
Access denied (Object(s): portal_content/com.sap.pct/specialist/com.sap.pct.crm/com.sap.pct.crm.roles/com.sap.pct.crm.core.defaultservices/com.sap.pct.crm.core.valuehelp).
Exception id: 09:51_13/09/07_0001_3889050
See the details for the exception ID in the log file
When we add Administrator permisions to the user this is resolved but the consern is why other iviews of the BP are working but the portal_content/com.sap.pct/specialist/com.sap.pct.crm/com.sap.pct.crm.roles/com.sap.pct.crm.core.defaultservices/com.sap.pct.crm.core.valuehelp is not working with the user profile?
has somebody suffered this?
I was trying to go into the log to find the error ID but can´t find the log that has to be analized, I didn´t find a log that has that ID or some ID´s like that one, can somebody guide me into this one to?
Thanx In Advanced!!
Kind Regards!
Gerardo J

Hi Ahmet,
The issue was solved assigning permissions to the Role CRM Default Services, try giving Read permisions to your users on this role, I did this assigning the Role where my users are to have permisions into CRM Default Services.
I hope this can help!!
