My Adobe Acrobat will no longer let me save PDF documents

I own the Adobe Creative Suite 4 that comes with Adobe Acrobat, which for years has allowed me to save PDF documents. Last month I decided to test Adobe Acrobat Pro for 30 days to see how well it converted PDF documents, and have since decided against it. I did not subscribe or buy a license for it and would like to be able to use my old version of Adobe Acrobat to save PDF documents, but it no longer allows me to do so. I re-installed it from the disk but it still won't let me save PDF files. I do not want to purchase a program that I already have just to be able to save PDF documents and would like to know how to get mine to work again. I work on a Mac.
Thank you to anyone that can help me.

Hi Sara,
the Suite comes with Adobe Acrobat, and I've had it for a few years, I paid full price for the suite. However, it seems that after I downloaded the new Acrobat Reader the old one no longer shows up for me to show you the issue. The new one works. And I think it is very odd that it did that as well. My guess is that the trial version of Pro that I downloaded to test out messed with the old version I had, and it refused to let me use it for a while, then I was able to force it to come up but the "Save" option was just NOT highlighted as an option. I was even having a difficult time downloading the regular version of Adobe Acrobat up until today, after I posted on this website. Every time I tried it said it couldn't because I already had a version in my computer. But today it allowed me. Very bizarre. A definite glitch I think. Anyhow, I don't think we can proceed because I can't get my old version up, the new one probably wrote over the old one. So...thank you again for your interest, I really appreciate it.

  • Terminal Server 2012 - Adobe Acrobat will not stay as the Default PDF Application

    Hello,
    This worked flawlessly in the past and not sure what happened and now even thought the default app for handling pdf is Adobe Acrobat, when you double click on a document it opens on Adobe Reader. not all my users use Adobe Acrobat so i have to keep adobe reader on the server as well (for licensing ). simply right clicking on the file to "open with" is not an option, users need to be able to open the file from our accountancy software. I have already tried switching the default app and switching it back with no luck. any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks

    Pretty sure that this was never tested but that being said... What was the order of installation?

  • Adobe Acrobat Standard/Pro freezing when opening large PDF documents

    Ok, I have a tough one. Adobe Acrobat X Standard/Pro keeps freezing when opening large documents that exceed approx. 50 pages. These PDF documents contain large images and graphs for mining purposes, but no links. The issue impacts multiple users on multiple laptops/desktops. We have tried the following:
    - Uninstalling/re-installing Adobe Acrobat
    - Disabling Enhanced Security in Acrobat Preferences
    - Resetting local user profiles
    - Changing Reading Preferences to view current visible pages only
    - Installing Adobe Acrobat XI
    This issue has only occurred after upgrading users to a Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit Operating System.
    The only possible solution I have managed to find is changing a registry key that permanently disables the Enhanced Security options in Acrobat. This solution however, only worked on brand new user profiles. Resetting user profiles throughout our entire company is not something we are even going to consider.
    If anyone would like more information that I have missed, please feel free to ask.

    Another possibility to check is the free space in the TEMP folder. I believe Acrobat uses the TEMP folder for temporary storage. You might even consider increasing the size of the TEMP folder. At least this is something else to check.

    the MacPro is the muscle machine and not constrained by power or cooling limitations like the MacBoo Pro is.
    OR AT LEAST BE MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR REALLY HEAVY STUFF?
    If you press the MacBook Pro like a desktop machine, it will blow fans like a hurricane but will do the job eventually.
    The longer you blow fans on a laptop, the sooner it clogs up with crippling dust and shortens the life of the machine.
    You'll need the top end 15" or better, not the 13" as it has no dedicated graphics, only CPU graphics.
    Preferably if you just now getting into video, you should be considering Avid on a Windows 7 tower, it's because Apple has been ignoring the MacPro for hardware updates to improve it and it seems like they don't want to carry it anymore. Also the last Final Cut Pro version had Hollywood up in arms as Apple removed a lot of required abilities to make it more "consumer friendly" which upset the Pro market who likes control.
    Apple is focusing on the consumer computing market and getting away from the "Pro" market which needs the heavier hardware to handle video needs. They stopped selling the X-RAID and the X-Server, so Apple really isn't a "computer" company any longer.
    Sure you can use a MacBook Pro and a external monitor for doing home movies and such occasionally, but if your into serious production you need to consdier other options now.
    There is nothing wrong in getting a MacBook Air and a Windows 7 professional video tower too.

  • Adobe Acrobat will not open

    I installed CS6 a few weeks ago and it worked fine. All of a sudden I can't open the Adobe Acrobat program any longer. How do I fix this?

    Hi,
    Since you have tried with crofix update but the file does not open.
    You might need to try out solutions 2 or 3 for the same from the link mentioned below:
    Doesn't launch after 30 days | Installed as part of a CS6 suite
    Please let me know if that worked for you. If no, then do tell me if there is any specific error.

As for the version, when I open pages from my apps and click 'about' it says version 5.1? And when I open the document it just goes grey and kind of blinks and doesnt open? No error message or any indication of why it will not open now when I for sure have opened it in the past! Andddd for the OS X I think it is 10.9.1 ??

    Hi,
    To configure your ODBC DataSource, go to Control Panel ---> DataSources(ODBC) (If you are in a Windows environment).
    Select the tab System DSN. If you have not added your data source, then do so by clicking on the Add button. If you have added the datasource, click on the Configure button to configure it.
    Give the datasource name, then the database name.
    You have to give the hostname, service name and server name. I guess, in most cases, the datasource name and host name will be the same, service name and server name will be the same. If you are using TCP/IP, the protocol will be onsoctcp.
    There will be a file named Services under C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc where you have to give the port number for accessing this server.
    It will be like this <service name> <portnumber>/tcp
    Hope this helps...
    best wishes,
    Nish

  • ITunes Match will no longer let me add my PC... Help?

    iTunes Match will no longer let me add my PC.  As it is, about 50% of the time that I have opened iTunes for the last year, I've gotten an error stating that iTunes Match has encountered an error and I would need to re-login.  This is on my main PC, the one with all of my music stored on the HDD. So, everytime, I sign out and re-sign in, and iTunes match takes a good bit of time and comes back on line.  Today, it asked me to sign in again, and it told me that I can't add my PC because I have too many devices on the account.  Right now, aside from this desktop PC, I have my work PC and my MacBook Pro. I had an old work PC, but I was careful to de-authorize before losing that computer.  Thus, I don't have many computers on the iTunes match account.  I *do* have a lot of iOS devices that I use with iTunes match, but I've had those for a while.  Is this the issue or is there something else? 
    Thanks!

    Dear ladies and gentlemen!
    I recently received on my notebook, operating system 8.1, the message "Adobe Acrobat is no longer working properly". I also found myself that I can copy from einerPDF file excerpts not without problems in another document. My Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro has released version 9.0.0. Two updates this version is not listed. Please inform me how I can fix this problem.
    Sincerely, Walter Hacksteiner
    mailto: [email protected]

    The first thing I would try is to update Acrobat 9 to the latest version 9.5.5
    The next thing would be to run Acrobat 9 in Windows 7 or Vista or XP Compatibility Mode.

  • If I can't get help quick, Adobe CC will no longer be an option. I'm currently trialing and only have 10 days until my discount offer expires.

    If I can't get help quick, Adobe CC will no longer be an option. I'm currently trialing and only have about 10 days until my discount offer expires. After that, I will no longer consider CC a valid option as it is almost twice the price.
    Premiere Pro audio slips out of sync, though it does not occur in Sony Vegas or in Lightworks with the same footage. Strangely, this is not only with the audio from within the video (.mts) file, but also from the audio I record separately and sync up in post. The frame rate and everything is, according to the sequence settings, accurately detected.
    Running my file through Handbrake is a workaround that I'm not willing to use. I've set my workflow (capture) so that this should be unnecessary, and indeed it is unnecessary . . . except for within Premiere Pro. Using Media Encoder to output an intermediate file doesn't work either; the audio still slips out of sync.
    Yes, I've already posted in the Premiere Pro forum, with no replies, but this is a bigger CC issue because the only way I'll give CC a try is with my 1 year $29.~ offer (as a CS user), which expires on the 30th. After that, I'll never give Adobe another look.

    Since you have quite a number of technical issue which needs expert guidance from the qualified technicians, please contact Adobe Support via chat or phone.
    Regarding the change in price after renewals, you can check it under "plan change" in your adobe.com if different pricing can be applied.

  • I have two 2nd generation iPods and iTunes will no longer let me delete songs (Delete in gray)?

    I have two 2nd generation iPods and iTunes will no longer let me delete music from either one. If I select a song, "Delete" is gray in the menu and cannot be selected. What's happened? New iTunes not compatible?

    In order to manually remove music from the iPod via iTunes, you need to have the Manually manage music and videos option checked from under each iPod's Summary tab.

    This was a big advantage of AppleTV1 - generally it did not need internet authorisation for synced material on its internal drive and was great for holiday/vacation.

  • Safari will not let me save pdf

    im not sure but Safari 5.1.5 will not let me save pdf?

    A couple of thoughts.  It appears there may be two issues--one is saving a PDF that Safari has loaded in the browser window, while the second (which is the one John was talking about) is saving a standard HTML page as a PDF document.
    For the PDF loaded in Safari:  Is it possible you might have loaded up a third party PDF ready (like Adobe Acrobat Reader) that might have installed itself to handle PDFs in Safari?  I've not checked, but wonder if that might disable the "normal" Safari options that would be available with Preview.
    If the PDF is displayed, you should get a black box at the bottom of the window if you place the mouse cursor there while Safari has focus.  While not perfect, if you select the far right icon it will save the PDF to your Downloads folder.  If you select the second from the right, it will load the PDF into a stand-alone instance of your standard PDF reader and from there you would be able to save the file anywhere you want using a Save As command in the reader.
    For HTML to PDF--that is controlled with the Print command, using the option at the lower left of the print dialog to print to PDF (which is the menu John showed you).  That works for all files *except* PDFs (since printing a password protected PDF to a new PDF would effectively strip the password and would also strip out other features of the PDF, you aren't allowed to print PDFs to PDF).
