Multiple recent files open when opening Preview.

When I launch preview with10.7.3, the app opens multiple recent files. Why? And how can I stop this?

Hold down the shift key when launching, or the option key when quitting, or simply close all windows before quitting.

Acrobat 9.5.5 multiple .pdf files open without toolbars displaying

Recently, I noticed that, when I open one .pdf file, all toolbars I have selected as customized are displayed. But, upon opening additional ,pdf files, those files do not display my toolbars at the top - only the file menu shows up. If I try to close the limited toolbar files, I get the error "Adobe Acrobat 9.5 has stopped working," and the programs aborts. I've searched the web to no avail for a solution. My work requires I have multiple Adobe files open, but these additional files have extremely limited functionality without the toolbars.
Event Viewer indicates the following errors:
Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe
Faulting module path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.dll
I'm running Win 7 Pro 64-bit, on Intel i7, with 14 GB RAM, 224GB SSD/68 GB free. My system should more than amply support the application.
My thought is a recent Adobe update or Windows update caused this anomaly. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Please advise - I'm desperate for a resolution. Thanks.

Update - when you select View -Toolbars on the additional files, all the customized toolbars are check-marked, so they should be displaying. But, they don't.

Bill@VT,
Thank you for your reply. Your recommendation is not the issue for sure. I had tested by opening numerous files on my system, which I know are not secure. The first file opened with all toolbar functionality, and the rest of the files opened in limited view. These are files I've created and opened numerous times in the past with no issues, until recently.
I've since installed Adobe Pro XI Trial, as well as a couple other .pdf maker apps. I had already remove Adobe Pro 9.5.5, so I can't reinstall while I have XI on my system - the installation aborts. My assessment, after spending hours researching it, is that there's a conflict in my OS and 9.5.5. At this point, I have to cut my losses (time & billable hours) and move onto a more stable, dependable application. It's probably not going to be an Adobe product, sad to say. Too many issues, too little accessible and timely support.
I am grateful for your input in my scenario. Have a splendid day/evening!

How to recent file open

How to Recent file open in Reader

You're missing a verb there... Did you mean: How to open a recent file in Reader? If so, just click its name in the Recent Files list and it will open, provided it still exists under that name and location, of course.

"File New Photoshop File" opens Preview instead

Hi there!
I am posting this question, because i couldn't find any solution in the FAQs or within PremierePro CS5.5. Plus i trust, that there's someone out there that knows the answer...
Thing is, in a normal sequence I choose File > New > Photoshop File and Premiere asks the normal question about filesize and so on. BUT instead of opening Photoshop (I have PS CS4), it opens the Program "Preview". Which doesn't help much since in preview you cannot even draw anything. I checked if i can just change that setting somehow to open Photoshop but no success...
Anybody familiar with this? Would be great!
Thanks,
Syrtah

Ok, then a little bit more precise:
I am inside PremierePro CS 5.5 and there exists a function in the file menu (Link as above: File > New > Photoshop File...) that directly opens a photoshop document with the size, pixel aspect ratio and framerate of my current Premiere sequence. So i click on that and Premiere is supposed to open Photoshop. Instead it opens a program, that is called "Preview" (i'm working on a MAC, i forgot to mention that before, sorry). Now Preview is only good vor previews and not for editing images.
To put it in other words, my problem is, that Premiere should open Photoshop and generate a new file fitting to my sequence, but instead it opens Preview.
Of course, I could open a new PSD-File in Photoshop but then i would have to manually type in the size of the image and so on. And since there is a built-in feature in Premiere, i would like to use that instead of going the long way.
So basically i am searching for the place where i can "tell" Premiere which graphics program to open.

Multiple unknown files created when working in Illustrator CS4 on Windows 7

Hi there,
If this has been addressed before, I apologize. I've been googling and searching this forum for a mention of this but haven't been able to find anything.
Whenever I'm working with a file in Illustrator, multiple unknown files are created. When I close Illustrator or reboot my computer, they remain. They have no file extension and their file size is almost always in the same range. In the screenshot below, each file ranges from 7MB to 7.99MB. I've previously had 100+ 14MB to 14.99MB files created. They can be deleted with no consequence.
I'm currently on the most recently released Windows 7 build that you can download from Microsoft's Website. This problem seems to only occur with Illustrator.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Either auto-save files from Illustrator or some sort of security backups created by the operating system for indexing purposes while the main file is still open. Check the respective prefs in AI and possibly your indexing settings in W7.

Writing to Multiple Data Files Only When selected?

I am building a system that is measuring the CO2 content of 12 vessels but only 1 CO2 gas analyzer. So, my system has a series of valves that only lets one valve open at time so that only one vessel is being measured at a time. What I would like to is have a measurement file for each vessel so I don't have to worry about determining which data came from each vessel. Also, I only want to write measurements to each file whenever its corresponding valve is turned on. The third thing I would like to do is to be able to read the data file and plot the trend data as the test is running. These test will run for 14 days. So what would you recommend to do this? Would you recommend using a Write to Measurement File Express VI, Write to Spreadsheet, Write to Text File, Write to XML?
Requirment Summary
1) File for each vessel
2) Only write data to file when corresponding valve is selected
3) Ability to read the data files and plot the trend data over time for the 14-day test.
I am using a Consumer/Producer design with two consumer loops one for processing and writing the data and the other to control a pump for a waterbath that was made inhouse.
Thanks!

This is such an open ended question...but I will give some advice.
If you plan on reading and writing to a file, dont use the write to measurement, you want to use the open/create/replace and close file functions. The particular file you write to can be either of those listed, but the text file will require all numeric values to be changed to strings, which is just more overhead to take care of. If I could recommend a type, it would be datalog files. They are great to organize your data. I don't see any reason to use XML. Do you want to be able to open and review this data later? Do Post-Analysis in Excel? Maybe write to spreadsheet is what you are looking for then.
Also, how fast are you gathering data? At high speed, maybe you want to use binary files. Downside is that you wouldn't be able to easily open the file for viewing outside of LabVIEW. For a 14 day test, make sure you have enough resources for your sampling rate, as any ASCII files, such as .txt, can grow large very fast depending on how you sample and how many digits you store.
For example, if we only store a 5 digit sample from one channel at 10 hz for 14 days:
5bytes/sample*10Samples/s*60s/min*60min/hour*24hour/day*14days = 60,480,000 bytes, or 60MB.
Are you wanting to show all of this data on a chart at once, and update live? This will use a lot of resources(RAM), but should be doable. I would obviously have to know more about your engineering requirements to make any more suggestions, just wanted to give you a feel for the ups and downs of some of your options. If you have the LabVIEW DSC module, then Citadel would be great for logging this data for you.

You mean it crashes?
We can't tell you why it's crashing without seeing the detailed crash log.

Mac hangs on file open, Mac hangs on file open

I am using Stata, a statistical analysis program. Recently, when I try to open a file, using File Open, the program hangs and I have to force it to quit. I can open files easily if I use Recent files. When the file gets open, I can do everything I should be able to do with the program. Analysis, graphics, etc. It is JUST when I do File Open that it hangs, and it seems to be ONLY with Stata.
Any suggestions?
Don

Hi Don,

ACROBAT 8.0 VIEWING MULTIPLE PDF FILES

Hello,
I've just installed Adobe 8.0 Professional and am having issues if I have multiple pdf files open. When I move the mouse the window will toggle to a different pdf file. This was not an issue with Adobe 7. Is anyone else experiencing this same issue?
Thanks,
Tina

Tina,
You'll have better luck if you post this on the Acrobat User-to-User forum. This Acrobat 3D forum deals specifically with 3D issues.

I have a brand new macbook pro 15" with latest Lion. Can anyone tell me why, when I open word or preview etc that multiple files open?For eg if I open a word doc, the last 1-3 docs that I have worked previously on all open. Can anyone tell me why?

You have a choice as to whether or not applications in Lion like Word or Preview (or even Safari) save and re-open previous documents or windows... just hold down the option key while quitting a program and when you re-open it you won't get the previous documents or windows when you re-open the application. You can see this by selecting the open program in the menu bar and when holding down the option key the quit function will change to quit and discard open windows. This feature in Lion is referred to as "Resume" and is great if you want to restart an app and return to what you're doing (for example in Safari re-opening existing windows and tabs from your previous session). You still have the option to close individual windows within an app before quitting and they will not re-open when the app is launched again.
This Resume function is not related to saving your work (a word or text document for example). This is handled by Lion's "Auto-Save" and "Versions" functions. See http://www.apple.com/ca/macosx/whats-new/auto-save.html
Hopefully this is the complete answer you're looking for.

Bug in Preview in Snow Leopard when opening multiple pdf files at once

I receive 50-200 pdf files by e-mail each day. I have historically saved the pdf attachments to a folder, then selected all the pdf files in the folder (CMD A), then opened all the selected files in Preview (CMD O). After updating to Snow Leopard, downloading 34 pdf files to a folder, selecting them all, then attempting to open them all in Preview (using both CMD O, then File/Open, then File/Open With), the effort first opens 6 of the 34 files. Closing all then trying again results in 7 files being opened, closing all then trying again results in 8 files being opened, etc etc. Earlier today I had the same results, but eventually got a message asking if I wanted to open all in separate windows (I did) or a single window, and it opened all the files at once as I wanted. After shutting down, moving home, and receiving additional pdf files, however, back to the same open 5, then open 6, etc. problem. Anyone else having this problem or a suggestion on how to resolve?
Thanks for suggestions,
B

More info - apparently the bug isn't related to Preview, but to the attempt to open all pdf files in the folder with ANY program. After having Preview open 25 of the 34 files I was attempting to open, I then tried opening all 34 with Adobe Reader. It opened 26 (after Preview had opened 25). Tried again with Preview - it opened 27, then 28 with Adobe Reader. It doesn't necessarily open the FIRST 25 (or 26, etc) either, so it's difficult to work with the open ones, then go back and work with the remaining ones later.

Save multiple files opened in Preview as one combined document

Is there a simple way to save multiple files, opened concurrently in Preview, as one document? The situation is that I opened all my on-line, pdf, monthly cell phone invoice files for 2012 at once, and want to save them in one file as "Cell invoices 2012."
Even though Preview shows them as one file with 12 booklets in the Sidebar, I can't see a way to save them as one big file.
Thanks!

Jeffrey and Karen ... I've used Preview for years but recently upgraded to OS Snow Leopard (I am reluctant to change software!). I used to freely drag and drop pages from the sidebar one pdf file open in Preview to the sidebar of another - as you recommend - without problem. Now if I do that, the caption in the bar at the top of the document says "2 documents, 5 (or whatever) open pages", and I can't save the whole thing as one document - Preview wants to save the tranferred pages as their own document. What has changed? What am I not understanding here?

Losing Add-Ins When Opening Multiple .DOCM Files

Our engineers are opening some 2003 documents with macros and converting them to 2007 .docm files. When they open up one file, the add-in toolbar is there with all the dropdown items and macros. When they open another file, the toolbar is there
but no dropdown and macros exist on the toolbar. Anyone can reproduce the issue on another computer. We also tried turning on and off trusting the macros and the same thing happens. Here is some of the different ways the engineer tried:
In Word 2007:
I disabled the trusted location I added (My Documents).
I disabled Trust access to the VBA project object model.
I set macro security to Disable all macros with notification.
Observations:
When I open the first document (*.docm) and enable the content the calculation toolbar menu items are present.
When I open the second document (*.docm) and enable the content the calculation toolbar is present with no menu items.
It doesn’t matter how I open the files (i.e., from Windows Explorer or recent files).
It doesn’t matter the order the files are opened as long as the macros are enabled in the order the files were opened.
If the first document is a *.doc and the second is a *.docm then this behavior is observed.
If the first document is a *.docm and the second is a *.doc then this behavior is
not observed.
I tried the following sequence:
1.
Open file A:
a.
Toolbar present, menu items present, macros disabled.
2.
Open file B:
a.
File A - Toolbar present, menu items present, macros disabled.
b.
File B - Toolbar present, menu items missing, macros disabled.
3.
Enable macros in file B:
a.
File B - Toolbar present, menu items missing, macros enabled (can run the macros manually).
b.
File A - Toolbar present, menu items present, macros disabled.
4.
Enable macros in file A:
a.
File A - Toolbar present, menu items
missing, macros enabled (can run the macros manually).
b.
File B - Toolbar present, menu items
present, macros enabled.
5.
Close File A:
a.
File B - Toolbar present, menu items present, macros enabled.
6.
Re-Open File A:
a.
File A - Toolbar present, menu items present, macros disabled.
b.
File B - Toolbar present, menu items present, macros enabled.
7.
Enable macros in file A:
a.
File A - Toolbar present, menu items missing, macros enabled (can run the macros manually).
b.
File B - Toolbar present, menu items present, macros enabled.
8.
Close File B:
a.
File A - Toolbar present, menu items present, macros enabled.
9.
Re-Open File A:
a.
File A - Toolbar present, menu items present, macros enabled.
b.
File B - Toolbar present, menu items missing, macros disabled
10.
Enable macros in file B:
a.
File A - Toolbar present, menu items present, macros enabled.
b.
File B - Toolbar present, menu items missing, macros enabled (can run the macros manually).
I stopped after that…

Are the files all based off the same template and has that template been converted?
Click on Developer Tab, choose Document Template. At the top under Document Template, see what the template name is.
If the template is still it dot format, try converting it to the new format. Make a backup of the dot file first.
Under the developer tab, try attaching the converted template to the files and see if this makes a difference.

Hi MIXAYA,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. In OS X, by default apps will open with any previously opened documents opening as well. To disable this feature, select "Close windows when quitting an application" from System Preferences > General. To learn more, see this article:
OS X Mavericks: General preferences
http://support.apple.com/kb/ph13803
Close windows when quitting an application
If you quit apps with windows still open on your screen, selecting this checkbox prevents the windows from reopening automatically the next time you start their app.
Cheers,
- Ari
