Microsoft Vista Business Data Execution Pevention Shuts Down Acrobat 8

All of a sudden every time I try to open a pdf file Acrobat 8.1 Standard opens the file and then within 10 seconds shuts down. I tried turning DEP off but the system would not allow it. It also would not allow me to add it to the excluded programs. What can I do next?

Probably does not help, but here is the MS answer: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/875351. That link basically says to check with the vendor of the software for a version that works with DEP. The basic question here is the version level of your Acrobat. If it is not the latest, you might update to take care of the problem (not sure it will). The updates are available at adobe.com>downloads>updates. Be sure to install the updates in order.

  • Data Execution Prevention shutting down iTunes even with exception added

    Well, was having this problem, it miraculously fixed itself for like a day but now it is happening again. Data Exectuion Prevention for Windows keeps shutting down iTunes. I have gone into the DEP settings and added an exception for it to not apply to iTunes but it is still happening every time I open iTunes. Today I downloaded and installed the new version of iTunes, hoping that would make a difference, but it is still happening. Also, since I installed that version about an hour ago, iTunes keeps opening itself without me telling it to--every five minutes I see it opening without me doing anything and then immediately being closed by DEP. I am getting very frustrated. Thanks in advance for any help.

    I had the same issue after my recent update of iTunes.  I didn't update Quicktime 'cuz I don't use it much (or at all).  On another thread discussing the same issue, I saw that the Quicktime installation can affect iTunes.  So I downloaded the latest Quicktime, installed, redooted - issue fixed (for now). 

  • SQL 2008 R2: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio cannot shut down because a modal dialog is active. Close the active dialog and try again

    When starting SQL Server 2008 R2 it hangs , and I cannot exit...so when  trying to logoff to reset I get the following "Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio cannot shut down because a modal dialog is active. Close the active dialog and try again"Any
    ideas?

    Big edit...
    I have 2008 R2 SP2 installed on my Windows 7 Machine which is also fully updated.  The marked answer above is clearly not the solution.
    The fix I had posted before did not work.  It appeared to work temporarily, but now I am back to the same invisible dialogue.  I have not been able to identify any pattern by which this is triggered.  I can have an entire day without this
    issue and then it appears the next.
    The invisible modal dialogue is definitely the connection dialogue.  The only way out is to hit the escape key to close it, but then I am no better off without an ability to connect to a server.  The dialogue is still invisible when I re-open it.
    However, even as I type this post, I have just gotten the dialogue to appear after restarting Management Studio, hitting escape, then clicking connect again.  That same pattern failed just minutes ago numerous times.  Again, I can't find any pattern.
    See you in the clock tower.

  • Something called Data Execution Prevention shuts Reader down when I try to print.

    I've had this problem with Reader X & Reader 9. I'm running Vista oc and whenever I try print a pdf a message comes up that says Adobe Reader has stoped working correctly and is being shut down by windows. Then another message appears saying that Adobe Reader was shut down by Data Execution Prevention in order to protect the computer from damage. I tried to remove Adobe Reader from the list of programs turned on for DEP and got a message stating that Adobe Reader has to run with DEP and DEP cannot be turned off for it. Anyone know how to work around this?

    I have the same issue with Adobe Reader X and Windows Vista Home Premium.
      Could someone please post information on this issue??

  • Solved Vista Home Premium Start up / shut down loop

    Ta Da    The  C:\windows\winsxs      ETC.       that was my solution  found it on this site and other sites and decided to try it:
    It was actually the 3rd choice of solutions on that particular page  and  I could not complete the solution as directed because the files I was supposed to delete were not there, funnily enough that is why I chose that solution as I really did not believe it was an update error but may provide me with a    "Look Inside" .  So I followed along and it would not let me delete the file as instructed but it let me rename it   I did rename 1 file and rebooted. Everything proceeded as normal but it actually finished loading the NVidia driver for onboard graphics  ( which was where it was crashing ) and that was it.
     I still dont know for sure why it would not load the driver and  I never did get any blue screens or failed update messages or error codes. On the upside I now have a working repair disk that I didnt have before, and created a backup that I didnt do before 
    I have an HP Pavilion  m 7580n   ( Media Center) that is locked in a start up shut down loop.
    It starts normally and runs up normally until the desktop flashes on the screen for about 3 seconds. At this point It is still loading things like the Internet connection , Icon indicates connected, nvidia control panel icon. It never gets any further than that.....?
    if I am  fast enough to dbl click an icon it will load whatever the icon represents but will immediately flash to the "Shutting down" screen. It then shuts down and auto starts the loop again. 
    I have  also tried   ctrl / alt / del   and I get there but it crashes instantly.
     The machine is now running   Vista Home Premium.  Upgraded from XP by an online download so I have no OEM disk.
    I dont know if it is 32 or 64 bit I would guess 32 as it was an XP upgrade
    What I have tried so far
    I have ruled out ANY Hardware problems by swapping hard drives and loading a different OS.   Win 7 on it and everything works fine for hours.  Benchmarks, stress tests, temp tests, games, mem tests
    I have made a vista repair disk and tried all of the "Non Destructive" options  available.
    I have tried every safe mode option.
    I have hooked the problem hard drive to another computer and accessed it that way, and ran virus scanners
    and clean and repair programs. No Bad sectors, clusters, nothing bad
    I have removed all "Junk" and files I can replace
    I have striped all unnecessary hardware. swapped RAM, Vid Cards  ETC.
    I have tried all of the above both connected and not connected to the Internet and everything many times and many differant combinations.
    Nothing has made any difference at all
    A little history of the machine.
    It was bought second hand with the Vista Installed and came with a paper  sticker with a hologram
     and a Key That was apparently mailed after the online update ?
    It was activated and displayed windows genuine logo in System Folder
    It received updates automatically and by request no problems.
     I mention this only because I cannot be absolute certain it is a legal copy and was wondering if this is some sort of disabling of pirated software or an expired demo?
    It was used in a cottage  where it could possibly of had a power failure during an auto update. I mention this as some update problems resemble my problem. I have shied away from trying those fixes as they involve elevated commands and such and my knowledge in that area is very limited. and I dont have any of the stages loading screens 
    It would be easy for me to format and reload an OS But the files I want are protected and I cant access them from another computer.
    I havent Listed any Hardware as I am satisfied it is not a hardware issue  However it is the  AMD X 2 64 version
     Any Non hardware related suggestions would be appreciated as I am certain this hardware all works
    I get no BSOD's no errors.
     Thanks for reading my lament

    Do this, and while it is in the open re-examine your cpu pins w/ a bight light and hd zoom or a magnifying glass.
    Thanks, xmad, I'll look at th CPU again tomorrow/next day under the glass when I take the board out.  I already checked them under magnification and was leaning toward a funky board, but it never hurts to re-check.  Eyesight is not what it used to be, for sure (I miss DOS, if that's a clue...).  Don't want to flash the BIOS if not necessary, since it runs Windows fine and everything works except that RAM.
    Bernhard, I don't have CPU-Z installed on that machine and don't want to install anything else until it's working normally.  I'd never seen Click-Bios before and just need to get over my initial suspicion of something new!  Also learn my way around it before I change anything.  I'd never encountered a board reporting a bios different than printed on it.  I've never messed with manual memory settings or done more overclocking than just a little exploratory and suprisingly successful nudge - if you could point me toward a  good basic explaination of all those settings, I could learn from there.
    Appreciate your input very much.   
    Have learned a lot just reading the threads here for the last few days.  This is the best forum I've ever encountered.  I'll report back - some suggestions in other posts resembling my problem ended with no resolution, and that's a shame because one doesn't know if it worked or not.

  • ITunes with Vista and data execution prevention

    Hi,
    I just installed iTunes on a Vista machine. But the data execution prevention doesn't allow to start the iTunes.exe. I even can't add an exception in vista, it complains that it is not possible for iTunes.exe.
    What the **** could be wrong here?
    Thanks for answers

    Thank you kindly.
    From the Start menu, click Open.
    In the Organize menu, click Folder and Search Options.
    Click the View tab.
    In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected and that "Hide extensions for known filetypes" is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now open your C:\Windows\System32\ directory. What files and/or folders can uour see in there with QuickTime in the filename or folder name?
    (In a standard QuickTime installation on a 32-bit system you should see just two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

    Should I change the settings? Will it harm my computer? Shouldn't the software be compatible with Windows Vista Ultimate?

  • Time/date resetting after shutting down.

    I have a 12" 867MHz PowerBook G4 that seems to give me the Time/Date reset error message. The display gives me a December 31st, 1969 date and after a few minutes, it reverts back to the proper time. Any ideas?

    Normally, this would be an issue with the internal PRAM backup battery, but 12-inch PowerBooks don't have one.
    Have you tried to reset your PMU? This article describes how to do it: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=14449.
    If that doesn't help, others in this forum have linked your issue to a dying battery. Have you noticed any decline in your battery life?

  • Macbookpro & Microsoft Office 2004-Entourage shutting down

    I have a 4 year old Macbook Pro running Microsoft Office 2004. Entourage started shutting down about 3 weeks ago when I would click on certain emails in both inbox and junk folder (spam emails mostly). I have latest patches, have you heard of this before?
    Is there a fix?

    Sometimes Entourage's database would corrupt.  Sometimes you can't fix its corruption.  But you can try with the Entourage Database repair utility in your Microsoft Office folder in the Applications folder.  If it won't repair, hopefully you backed up your data before it last got damaged.  The database file, is in your Hard drive -> Users -> yourname -> Documents -> Microsoft Office Data folder, if you want to dig it out from a backup and try an older version of it.  Be sure not to overwrite your old one, unless you don't mind risking losing some e-mail, contact and calendar entries.

  • Oracle forms problem-can't be run in mozilla 3.6.12  windows vista business

    Dear all,
    I have oracle developer 10g and oracle 10g database in my machine.
    I installed the developer suite 10g in my machine successfully.[vista-business edition]
    I saw Steve Cosner's thread.I installed as per the thread.
    Forms 10g installed and running on Windows VistaBut I cant succeed to run the forms in mozilla. it shows error "connection was reset". what can I do?
    Please help me.
    Regards,
    SB

    Be aware that if you are running on Vista, your Forms version must be 10.1.2.3 (meaning 10.1.2.0.2 patched to 10.1.2.3)
    If the browser is crashing it generally means one of the following is occurring:
    1. There is a JRE version conflict. This most often occurs when a plugin uses a different java version than the JRE you are trying to launch. Try disabling all the browser plugins except the JRE
    2. The JRE installation is corrupt. Uninstall ALL JRE versions which have been installed. Reboot the machine. Then, with ALL browsers closed, installed just the version you want to use.
    3. Windows DEP or UAC settings are preventing the JRE from starting correctly. Relax the UAC settings and ensure that DEP is not blocking the javaw.exe or java.exe processes. Changes to either of these settings will require reboot.

  • ITunes shuts down on startup.

    When I try to open iTunes, windows (data execution prevention) shuts it down. This just started happening.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • My iPhone Shuts Down My G4

    As many of you probably experience when the iPhone is transmitting information i get a digital distortion on any speaker that is in the same room. However, i've also had the problem that when i hear that distortion and the phone is transmitting data it completely shuts down my G4 when it's near by (not even plugged in). I've got a mirror door G4 (the last year they made them) and I'm using a 15" apple monitor. Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas why this happens?

    If you didn't see anything at all your phone has defective hardware. Connect to the charger again, and while connected hold both buttons. If the phone comes back on, but goes off when you disconnect the charger, you have a bad battery. If it doesn't come on at all you have a hardware failure of the phone. If you see any instructions on the screen, such as an image of a phone connecting to iTunes, follow them; your phone may need to be restored.

  • Audigy 2 ZS Video Editor & Vista Business installation iss

    So this is my letter to?Creative who have yet to respond, does anyone have a similar set up to me who can shed some light on this issue and fixing it. Having no sound and not being able to listen to itunes is not a good thing.
    To Engineers,
    Firstly id like to say I?m very disappointed in purchasing this $400 AUS SB Audigy 2 after looking on your website and seeing the Microsoft vista logo plastered everywhere thinking this device would be compatible, quite clearly it is not as I have installed/uninstalled drivers and disks..only to find that it is pointless..
    So here I am about to explain my situation in order for you guys to find me a suitable driver ASAP.
    I currently have a HP M777A running on Microsoft Vista Business with 3.06GHz and 2x GB Kingston Memory..
    In my office I have a 5. speaker surround which sits with my 9?LCD which I like to listen to music from and watch DVD?s.
    In my lounge room I have a 42? LG Plasma Display which also runs with my Denon AV4306 Recei'ver which also have a 5x speakers surround.
    Prior to Vista, I was able to watch DVD?s or listen to music through iTunes which was being powered through my PC, I was able to do this simultaneously in both rooms. This is what I need to achieve again very soon.
    After scouring dozens of websites and reading this products pitch lines which states that this virtually anything can be played through it, well this is why I bought it.. But I?m very disappointed.
    My question to you guys is this.
    . Is there a driver or something I can load up to fix my problem
    2. ?If NOT, then how long will it take to be released.
    3. ?If so, how do I find out about it when it is released.
    4. Etc etc.
    Please advise ASAP with a solution I can work with.

    Copied from the Video forum - (related to video operation under Vista)
    I have used the follwoing procedure to install a working configuration of the Audigy 2 ZS Video Editor in a clean install of Vista Ultimate.
    () Download from Creative Labs (US) site: http://us.creative.com/support/downloads/ the following files:
    (a) Creative Sound Blaster USB Series Windows Vista Driver .00.0060 - USBVS_PCDRV_LB__00_0060.exe (from the Vista section)
    (b) VidCap for Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Video Editor .00.000 - A2VX_PCVDE_L9__00_000.exe (from the WinXP section)
    (2) Use WinZip or WinRAR to open the file (b) and extract the folders \DrvInst and \Vidcap into your Vista Downloads folder.
    (3) Connect the Video Editor to the power supply and a video source; connect the USB cable to your PC. Ignore the "Found NEw Hardware" dialog that pops up.
    (4) Doubleclick on file (a) to install the Creative Sound Blaster USB Series Windows Vista Driver, and follow prompts as required; accept all defaults. After install is complete, let the PC reboot.
    (5) After rebooting, in the "Found New Hardware" dialog that appears, select the options to search for a driver, don't go online to search, browse for a driver and point the search at the \DrvInst folder you extracted in (2) above. The USB video driver will be installed from the \DrvInst\Video\Driver\Win2k.
    (6) After the video driver is installed, doubleclick on the Setup.exe file in the \Vidcap folder you extracted in (2) above to install the Vidcap application.
    (7) Setup the options in Vidcap, and run a test recording.
    Happy capturing under Vista.Message Edited by Dale-CL on 04-8-2007 :3 AM

  • Imove shuts down for no reason while i'm working on my project. why could this be happening?

    Imove states my project is out of date, and also shuts down for no reason while i'm working on my project why is this and what can i do to fix this please help!! working on a gift for my cousins wedding.

    ok Rebis i think this appears to fix your problem , not sure though.. they say just to reinstall mac os X , back up your stuff and format the drive, reinstall the os. In my case , it just reboots by itself , no grey screen , nothing, keeps rebooting and rebooting sometimes. Ran apple hardware test, sry dont remember error # , but it said video controller error.
    I hope Taylor posts again to see if his got fixed, cause it seems his problem and mine are really alike if not the same.
