I keep getting the error message "Missing PDFMaker files. Do you want to run the installer in repair mode"

I keep getting the error message "Missing PDFMaker files  Do you want to run the installer in repair mode"when I try to convert a file into a pdf.  I have tried uninstalling then reinstalling but I continue to get the message.  I am able directly print file, but there are some errors in the pages, but some of them have font errors. Please advise.

Hey Suzanne,
Could you please let me know what Acrobat version are you using and what kind of file are you trying to convert to PDF.
If you are using an MS Office application, then PDF Maker has to be an active plug-in for the PDF conversion.
Have you tried using Print to PDF option from the File menu for the same?
Please check and then let me know.
Regards,
Anubha

  • Acrobat X bug - stuck in cycle - "missing pdfmaker files" "do you want to run the installer"

    Hello,
    I just installed Acrobat X on a Windows 7 X 64 with office 2010 x 64 install.    I can print from within office to PDF, however if I right click on a document in explorer and attempt to convert to PDF without opening office, I get "missing pdfmaker files" "do you want to run the installer in repair mode" right after I give it a file name.   If ignore, it won't print.   If I try to fix by running the installer in repair mode, it does some install process but it still gives me the same error.   Nothing shows up in the event viewer.  I tried to run an acrobat update but is says no updates are available.  I have tried uninstalling and downloading the trial version - it has the same issue

    Acrobat X PDFMaker supports 32-bit Office 2010.
    With 64-bit Office 2010 you should be able to use the Adobe Printer; but, for PDFMaker functionality you'll need Office 2010 32-bit.

  • HELP! ERROR MESSAGE: Missing PDFMaker Files

    Hello-
    My Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0 has been running perfectly fine for over a year now. However, today I went to create a pdf. and I received the following error message:
    Missing PDFMaker Files
    Do you want to run the installer in repair mode?
    So I said yes, and then restarted my computer. That didn't fix it.
    I uninstalled Adobe Acrobat Professional and re-installed it. That didn't fix it.
    I really have no idea what to do. It's extremely frustrating because I have CS2 and the phone support people said they couldn't help me because I don't have the newer version. I'm looking for any sort of solution to this problem because it makes this program virtually useless.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • I've only had my iphone 5s for a week. I keep getting an error message of "Server has stopped responding."  I need the server to work. Does anyone know if there is a "fix" for the problem? Other wise, I probably best return for a refund and get a Samsung.

    Unlikely.  Based on the complete lack of detail of the issue provided it is entirely possible the same issue would occur.
    Unless and until the user provides some actual details of the problem, there is nothing the indicate that the issue is with the iPhone.

    I too added 2nd apple ID when I tried to get Free app from apple store just to get to NONE on the credit card needed. It said it sent confirmation email to my new apple ID email that I have to confirm. Problem is I can not get to the new apple ID email account.  On my ipad it logs into my original email account and I see no where to log into another email account.  If I go to my laptop, the new apple ID I created does not let me log into email where apple said it was sent to.  It did not send to back up email account either.
    Can I log into 2 email accounts on my ipad where it says mail at bottom?
    Can I have 2 apple ids?
    If I created a 2nd apple id to get to NONE on credit card needed, can't I log into it also on another laptop in gmail?
    (won't let me)
    If I used my original apple id I created when I got my new ipad, it will not let me get free app without credit card, there is no where it says NONE needed. I am too new to apple to start with credit cards etc until I get use to it.

    Hello:
    I am very much a novice with Final Cut.  I am trying to import some video files from  my desktop but keep getting an error message that says, "File error  1 file recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown".  The file type is .mov, 35MB, 1920 x 1080, Codec MPEG-2 video linear PCM timecode, color profile HD (1+1+1).  Can someone help?  Thanks, Paul

    You can't import MPEG-2 files directly to FCP X.
    Can you play this file in Quicktime Player? If so, then you can use the free program MPEG Streamclip to convert this to Quicktime. Use the ProRes codec.

  • I keep getting a error message when I open iTunes asking me to reinstall the 64 bit version. I have reinstalled but still get the message.

    When I open iTunes I keep getting a error message asking me to reinstall iTunes 64 bit version. I have reinstalled but still get the message. Does anyone know a fix for this?

    This is obviously a problem apple! Please look at your community boards and see that a number of people have issues with the latest update and sort out.
    I have tried a number of times to install the update and have failed getting the same message as you. Tried with the 32 bit instead & no luck. Ive come on here to see if anyone else has a solution & found we all have the same problem. Someone else tried the old uninstall reinstall trick to no avail. Please sort this out apple!!

  • TS1702 When I try to reload The Sims FreePlay (sister deleted accidentally) from Apps Store I keep getting an error message "There is not enough avaiable storage to download "The Sims FreePlay". I check my settings and I do have enough available storage.

    When i try to reload The Sims FreePlay (sister accidentally deleted) from App Store I keep getting error message. There is not enough available storage on my device but there actually is enought storage. Not sure why I cannot get App to reload. I have synced to my computer. Help!

    To download/install an app directly to the iPod you need available storage equal to about three times the file download size. Syncing the app to the iPod requires a lot less. Thus you either have to free up more storage or sync the app from your computer.

  • I keep getting an error message and redirected to yahoo, despite having been in the site briefly using my default browser. any ideas?

    Google is my default browser. I type in a search, click on the link, and go to the site, Sometimes I get re-directed immediately and other times I am able to navigate for a few seconds before being re-directed. I've tried changing the settings in the "about.config" area to make sure that Google does not appear anywhere. I've removed Yahoo from my applications (since doing that Bing now comes up anytime I open more than one browser window). I've looked for malware from Spigot and I can't find You Tube Downloader. In short, I've followed every suggestion that I can find. It hasn't fixed the problem, and has created a new one with Bing. Any other ideas??

    It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or even add / mal-ware.
    Look thru your add-ons list and make sure you know what each one is
    and what it does. Also, check the programs that are on your computer
    '''Windows:''' Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs.
    '''Mac:''' Open the "Applications" folder
    '''Linux:'''

    * Xfce: Applications Menu category sections
    * options depends on the package manager and the desktop environment
    Go thru the list. If you find something that you don't
    know what it is, use a web search.

    Yes, the website works fine on my PC computer.
    It was working fine on my iPad too until the message showed up. The website took a long time to load and when it finally did.. That message showed up twice. The site works now but at times will stop loading.
    I do feel like my Internet connection on my iPad is spotty today. One minute it is loading super fast, the next, the page won't load at all. Could be my connection though.
    I do not have the debug console set to on. Should I set it to on?

  • CS3 Error Msg: Missing PDFMaker Files...

    Hi,
    I installed CS3 and when I tried to use Acrobat Pro I got the following error message:
    " Missing PDFMaker Files.  Do you want to run in the repair mode?"
    If I say "yes" nothing happens.  If I say "no" nothing happens.  What can I do to use my software?
    Thanks in advance for any ideas!
    Kathy

    As Bill stated, you can print to PDF using the Adobe PDF printer. No "interactive" features with this. Just page content painted to the PDF.
    Or, with Office 2010, try the Save As PDF capability.
    If you desire the use of PDFMaker you most change to Acrobat X. Update it to 3.1.0.
    Acrobat X (3.1.0) PDFMaker supports Office 2010 64-bit.
    See: See: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/333/333504.html
    n.b,. Don't know, but, there may be possible issues with Acrobat X integration (if any) with the other applications of CS3.
    You'd want to ask about this in the CS forums.

  • I keep getting this error message when i try to install the latest version of itunes, the program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer. try reinstalling the program to fix this problem??

    I am having trouble reinstalling my Itunes on my desktop which uses Windows 7 and I can download it but once it's complete i keep getting this error message...The program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem. Please help me.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.
