MS Word not working since Acrobat install

I purchased and installed Acrobat XI Pro a few days ago. Now when I open MS Word I get a constantly running "wait" icon. I can use the program minimally, but it is extremely sluggish. I tried disabling the Acrobat Addin - no difference. I tried repairing my Word program - no difference. I tried printing to Adobe PDF printer (which worked fine) and surprise, the constantly running wait icon disappeared and Word worked normally. But the next time I opened Word the problem returned. I tried removing the Adobe PDF printer from my list of printers - no difference. I then went back to the original Acrobat installation. I can now use Word in a limited way if I select the Adobe PDF printer first, but printing to my regular Canon printer does not function properly. I'm using Windows 7 and Office 2003. I need help now please!

Well I sure waited a long time for no reply from this forum... That's disappointing. However I finally found a solution. After a great deal of sleuthing on Adobe, Microsoft and Canon websites, it turned out the updating my Canon printer driver did the trick. I'll leave this note here in case anyone else has a similar problem one day.

  • 4Gs playlist not working since iOS6 install

    Ever since I installed iOS6 my playlists won't play on my 4Gs iphone, or if they start to play (after a very long start up), they stop.  One time it kept playing the same song over and over again.  I save my music on iCloud and use iMatch.  I restored my iPhone but nothing seems to work.  If no one has a suggestion, can you please tell me how to get the previous iOS?  I had no problems on that one.

    Try putting your iPhone in restore mode. To do so you have to connect your iPhone to your mac via usb. Then press and hold the power and the home button at the same time. Now when the apple logo appears release only the power button, but keep on holding the home button until the iTunes logo with the usb cabel appears on your display.
    iTunes should now recognize your iPhone in restore mode and you can safely restore your iPhone to factory settings.

  • Apple mail not working since Yosemite installed

    I have had not new mail on my MacBook Pro laptop for several days.  I do receive mail on my iPod Touch.  The popup message on the MacBook mail states:   "Mail cannot send your password securely to the server. You can remove this restriction in the Accounts preferences by setting “Allow insecure authentication”, which could put your password at risk. " Please advise what to do - I am reluctant to allow insecure authentication.

    I am reluctant to allow insecure authentication.
    You should be, but if that's what your mail server requires, you'll have to do it anyway, or else switch mail providers (recommended.)

  • Canon Printer mx860 not working since upgrade to Yosemite, it is connected to my Mac via usb.  Any suggestions?  Thanks. LL

    My 2009 Canon MX860 Pixma printer not working since an upgrade to Yosemite on my MAC version 10.10. It is connected by USB.  Have had no previous issues with printing, scanning or faxing.  When trying to print my Calendar I only get light vertical dotted lines, none horizontal, no words and vague header colors. Checked printer image on the  on my MAC which shows the same problem.  All of the color and black cartridges are new.
    The recent upgrade to the Canon application says it is completed but it is not, image on application upgrade is a circle with an X.
    Any suggestions?  Could this simply be a compatibility problem?  I'd sure like to keep my Canon printer.
    Thanks,  LL

    Can you open System Information (Applications > Utilities) and select Printers in the left sidebar. If the MX is the only printer connected to the Mac then its information will be shown in the right pane. If you have more than one printer, then a list will be shown in the top right pane. Select the MX to see its information in the bottom right pane. Can you copy this information and paste back here for me to check.
    Also an FYI - this is the Mavericks forum. The Yosemite forum is here

  • IChat Video Not Working since PSP3 bought!!

    Hi guys,
    ichat video not working since I bought and installed a new Playstation 3. I have a BT HUB that connects wirelessly with the imac. I have BT Vision running from the HUB too via ethernet wall boost adapters. I had this problem with video when i installed the BT Vision. And turned out to be something to do with Application Sharing settings on the HUB. I resolved it by correctly sharing AIM TALK with my wireless imac. Now the same problem has arisen since the psp3 was put on. But even with all the things I've tried I am stuck as how to get the video up and running as before. The devices running off the hub include:
    1. imac (wireless via Airport Extreme)
    2. BT Vision via ethernet and wall adaptors
    3. iPod touch via wireless
    4. PSP3 via wireless plug and play
    I have checked all the ip address for these devices and have enabled app sharing for the imac wireless to AIM TALK in BT HUB manager. I have also opened my firewalls; changed the port setting to 443 in ichat preferences; re-set the HUB/Router;
    Is there anything else I can do or check? As I said it worked perfectly before the psp3 went onto the
    network. Should i assign AIM TALK to the imac wireless or to some of the other devices? (though I think I've tried that too!!)
    Help would be much appreciated as this is driving me to insanity, if I wasn't there already!!!!
    Take care, and thanks in advance for your help.
    Baz, Belfast, Northern Ireland, Europe!!

    "speedtouch modem!"
    Yes you do.
    Thomson-Alcetel who make the Speedtouch range make this device for BT.
    The Firmware is Thomson-Alcatels with BT Logo-ing.
    This Ethernet 3 connection is probably internal.
    Have you got System Preferences > Quicktime > Streaming set to 1.5Mbps ?
    If not then do and restart iChat to see the new speed.
    In Leopard the Automatic setting is read by iChat as 384K.
    This may be allowing the PS3 to have too much of the bandwidth.
    I or rather my son has a X-Box 360 which can be on-line when I video chat and it works for me, as it does when he uses his PlayStation 3
    If the AIM talk setting uses the same port here as it is listed elsewhere then it has only opened/allowed port 5190.
    This would have appeared to have been coincidental to any iChat use when you changed it.
    Are you not using UPnP in this device ?
    Which firmware is it up to ?
    Anything above 6.2.2.6 should work.
    Anything starting with 6 and containing letters is later.
    In the .telephony section does it mention which port are open ?

  • Sendmail does not work in Acrobat 9.5.1.

    Acrobat 9.5.1
    OS 10.6.8
    The Sendmail feature does not work - when I try to attach mail, I get a warning:
    "The SendMail doesn't know how to talk to your default mail client.  Please select a different mail application to use."
    1.     Surely this should work?
    2.     How do I select a different mail application?

    This does not work in Acrobat XI either for Office 64bit (Office 2013 64 bit)
    Does anybody know the fix for this?
    I called tech support today but they dont seem to know anything about the error although its a known issue with all previous versions of Acrobat for serveral years now.
    I really need to make this work, there is a random google post where I have ot make some regedits, but why can't Adobe fix this known issue since it is nothing new?
    My basic understanding at this point is that even Acrobat XI is a 32 bit app and the programmers at Adobe still dont know how to write the API to talk to a 64bit mail client?
    I really need some help on this if anybody has a real solution.
    Thanks!

  • Compressor 4 doesn't work since I installed Mavericks and I can't export a video normally on FCPX either.

    Compressor 4 doesn't work since I installed Mavericks and I can't export a video normally on FCPX either.
    Can someone help me?
    Thank you!

    Got the phone direct from the Apple website, so I assume it was unlocked, and it had been on giffgaff ever since but I don't see why that's a problem?
    The carrier was automatically selected as Free and is up to date.
    There seemed to be no problem that the SIM was being used in an iPhone 4 and my friends in exactly the same situation (e.g. arriving in France and moving over to the Free network with iPhone 4's) have had zero problems with their 3G network; it just seems to be me.
    The Free Mobile Network is included on this list which I guess means that they are Apple-approved? iPhone: Wireless carrier support and features
    How do I find out whether or not I would need to manually configure an APN? I'm not even sure I know what that is.
