PC Error: Raise without Handler!

I have a PC, Windows 7. I cannot open PDFs at all and receive the error message of "Raise without Handler!" I have uninstalled/reinstalled Acrobat and Reader. I have used the Clearner tool. I have also been on the phone with our company's IT support team for 2 days. No one knows how to fix this! Everyone says this is a MAC issue but I have a PC. Please help!!!!!

I have never seen this message on Windows before. But it could be just another form of Adobe Reader malfunctioning and closing, in which case I usually start with these three suggestions
Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
Can you open Adobe Reader by itself? If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

Raise without Handler error when printing pdf files in Outlook

At work sometimes I'm asked to print emails with tons of attachments, but when I attempt to print the email with the attachments through outlook, anytime there is a PDF attached, I get the "Raise without Handler!" error and also the following window:
The only way I'm able to print the PDF file is by opening the file directly and then printing it from the actual Acrobat program. At work we use Acrobat 7.0 Professional.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as it's pretty time consuming when I'm printing an email with 20+ PDF attachments.

Hi Hisami,
Hope you are well.
Latest adobe & chrome versions. IE is an older version.
OS Windows home premium 7
Adobe Reader X1
Does adobe have chat?
Bit of background:
I have a monthly subscribtion with adope create and everything was working fine. Then I downloaded a free trial of I think acrobat so I could edit pdf and around the time I got a redirect virus on google chrome. So I deleted all adobe and used Norton power cleaner.
Then tried download (reinstall) adobe create. Now I can't open any of my many pdf files. Just get 'Raise without handler".
Thanks for looking into this,
Andrew

Raise Without Handler

I was having trouble printing the latest iPad user manual (pages 16 and 35 wouldn't print correctly although the other 126 were ok), so I downloaded the latest Reader. It corrupted my home screen and I couldn't open anything. Every time I tried to open something, I would get the error message "Raise Without Handler" whatever that means. Can anybody help?

My home screen is the first screen I see when I switch my laptop on. You know, a favourite photo in the background and all your shortcuts spread around the edges.
When I download Adobe Reader all my shortcuts change to the Adobe Reader logo in just white, leaving the name of the shortcut below, Google, Facebook etc.
When I double-click on any of these I just get an error message "Raise Without Handler".

When I try to open Adobe Reader XI I get a note saying raise without handler. ??

When I open Adobe Reader XI I get a note saying "raise without handler" WTF is that ???

Don't know. You might want to try the Reader forum.

Raise without Handler Mac - Help

I can not open PDF on my mac through our shared drive for work.
There was a RAISE without a handler. The application will now exit.

I was not aware that I did. This forum is foreign to me. I could not figure out if my original post was showing. My sincere apologies.

HELP!! Raise without a handler error! Reader 9, Mac WTF!??

Yikes! I've just finished weeks of work on my project, using Acrobat Pro 9, just tested it in Reader 9 (Mac), and it crashes on page 5 with this error:
There was a RAISE without a handler. The application will now exit.
The page that brings this up, and all similar pages that I've tested (several out of 50+), includes buttons, links, hidden fields, and a .swf file. All work perfectly in Acrobat, and earlier tests have worked fine in Reader, and when opened from online in Safari.
Now, on the eve of the project deadline (of course), I can't get any of my versions past this error, including the local files and an uploaded sample viewed in Safari (3.1.2).
I googled the error and find nothing recent except an unresolved thread here, from 2007, that mentions Pitstop; I don't have, and have NEVER had, Pitstop.
PRAYING somebody has some clue
Thanks!

Try downloading and installing AppleJack instead, which only works in single user Mode (Cloverleaf-Apple key) after a restart. Follow all steps in order. Two items 3 and 4 you do for system the you be asked if you want to check individual user in those case you type
Y and hit return/enter. Then you type the user directory and its run again. That way you clean caches files for system and user. Then preference files that are bad. the last is to dump memory cache files that are written to Hard drive to speed up Code access.

Raise without a handler error

Running Adobe Acrobat 8.12 Professional. Whenever I attempt to use the text edit tools or the redact tools, I receive an error message stating that "There was a RAISE without a handler. The application will now exit." The only posts I've seen on this issue involve the program 'Pitstop," which is is not on my computer. I've uninstalled, repaired permissions, and re-installed, with no success. It's running on a 15" MacBookPro running Leopard. Thank you.

you're in the wrong forum.

There was a RAISE without a handler. - Adobe Reader 9 Mac PPC 10.4.11

Hi, just recently everyone has been getting this error at my place of work. After searching around this seems to be a pretty rare problem with not many solutions. Everyone is running Adobe Reader 9 and is accessing these files from a share on a server. The odd thing is if I access the server and copy the pdf from the server to a mac it works fine when its on the actual machine, but opening it from the share gives this error "There was a RAISE without a handler. The application will now exit."
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I am not sure, but I got the same error on my macbook pro with Mac OS X 10.5.8 and Acrobat 9.2 (CS4). I never had any problems before until I tried to install the suggested update to version 9.3.0 with Adobe Updater. The Update didnt finish the installation and since then I have this error message.
I must say that I lately updated/installed the free utility "PDF Browser Plugin v.2.2.3" from Schubert IT which brings full Acrobat functionality to Safari. Acrobat 9.2. and PDF Browser Plugin were running without any problem before I tried to run the update. (I am not sure if the PDF Browser Plugin was running on my MacBook Pro System before - but I didn't experience any problems with the Plugin and Acrobat Pro on several other Macs at work)
But now I am not sure if the Browser Plugin has brought up the Updater to fail - especially because it is just a Plugin for browsers located /library/Internet Plug-ins)
I now try to fix this issue and let you know if I was successfull. I was just thinking, if you maybe also have this plugin installed. It runs in the background and is normaly not buggy, and that why most users don't even recognize wheter its installed or not...

There was a raise without a handler

I'm using Acrobat Pro 9.3.1 on a Macbook Pro OS X 10.6.7. Every time I click the Comments menu or the Help menu, I get this error: "There was a RAISE without a handler. The application will now exit." Despite my best efforts to find a solution online, I'm coming up empty. Any ideas?

This seems most often to be related to corrupted cache or preference files.
Here are a couple previous threads which discuss the problem:

There was a RAISE without a handler. The application will now exit/

Can someone help me figure this out, I can open Acrobat and run it for about 5 seconds, then this message pops up "There was a RAISE without a handler. The application will now exit." and Acrobat Pro closes.
I am running Mac OSX 10.5.8 and Acrobat Pro 9.3.3. I have tried going back to a previous version of Acrobat but I get the same error. I am using Firefox, someone suggested it is a Safari thing, but I have never used Safari, not sure why it would be associated anyway, but trying to give as much info as I can.
Help please?

I'm having the same issue. Again, unfortunately. And of course you will find through various searches that it is a reoccurring issue, one that Adobe seems to have failed to acknowledge.
You can delete your preference files. Same thing. RAISE blah blah crash.
You can even go and do a restore from an uncorrupted backup from over 4 months ago, and yet it still doesn't solve the problem, thus there is a compatibility issue.
The program is battling with another program (of which there really is no telling) and therefore crashing the moment you open it. The software itself is clean and uncorrupted, yet somewhere deep within OSX there is a problem that won't allow the software to open.
The only temporary solution i've found to solve the problem is a clean adobe install. Just delete and uninstall all and any traces of Adobe Acrobat, then reinstall to find a working adobe product. For a small while, at least.
I've never tried creating a new account, but from what others say it works. Not worth my time though.
If anyone was wondering I have zero third party plugins. Its straight from Adobe CS4. Pro version.
Someone above mentioned using the drop down menu in acrobat to reset the software. I can't even do that! The "RAISE" window pops up before that actual software! Its ridiculous!
Its really quite peeving to know that this issue has been around for years and Adobe seems to just ignore it. I know I don't want to pay for a company that fails to meet their customers needs. This is your problem Adobe, not ours to deal with. Fix It.

Every time I download a PDF I get a message that says There was a RAISE without a handler. The application will now close. What does this mean?

I work on a Power Mac G5 running OSX 10.5.8.
We recently had to upgrade Java.
Now every time I download a PDF I get the message "There was a RAISE without a handler. The application will now close."
I downloads the PDF OK, but then Safari closes and I have to start it back up to get to my email.
What is the message telling me? It did not do this before we upgraded Java.

Error Handling in BODS - Capturing errors raised due to Undefined Parameter

Hi,
It seems that TRY/CATCH blocks are not able capture the errors related to Undefined Substiture Parameters. This kind of errors are leading to the failure of the BODS JOB.
Is there any way to capture the errors raised by undefined Substiute Prameters by using TRY/CATCH Blocks?
I hope I am clear with my scenario. Please let me know if I need to provide any other details.
Regards,
Sudhakar

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
I dnot think that we can capture any errors related to "Mssing Substitute variables" through TRY/CATCH" blocks.
Could you please let me know if you know any other alternative to handle this one?

RAISE without a handler ... ??

The person in front of me pushed their seat back and crushed the hard drive of my laptop. I had it replaced and restored it with time machine, but now Adobe Acrobat delivers the following message, and then quits: "There was a RAISE without a handler. The application will now exit."

I take it you mean just use the installer disk, and one of the menu options is to repair Acrobat? I'll look for it now.

"Error Message" without interrupting the transaction

We use a VB application to insert/update records in a Oracle database.
Any user is allowed to see all fields, but not every user is allowed to update all fields. We check the right to update in a database trigger and raise an error if a user wants to update a field for which he has no rights.
User X has the right to update field A, but he has not the right to update field B.
Now we want to change the application
If X tries to update fields A and B, we want to accept the new value for A, leave B unchanged and inform the user with a message like an error message without interrupting the transaction.
Has anybody an idea how to implement this?

In the project it's presented:
1) how the servlet can send JSON data depending on the request's parameter
2) how to obtain this data on the client side and show in on the page using jQuery without refreshing the whole site
What You need to do is just to send the error (as JSON data) insetad of the values that are passed now and display this error on the page.
