PDF Will Not Save After Any Page Change

Large PDFs composed of scanned documents, some of which include pages dragged in from other PDFs (also of scanned pages) CRASH Acrobat versions 8pro, 9standard and 9pro after any attempt to add/delete pages, run "Examine Document" or "Preflight", drag in a new page or scan in a new page.  As soon as "removing unused objects" bar appears lower right of screen, it freezes and Adobe simply dissapears...nothing saved.   The one change it will allow and save is simply rearranging the pages in page view.
These are 100-300 page scanned medical charts. Security settings on these documents are all set to "Allow".  Running "Examine Document" reveals a ton of metadata, form field logic or actions, hidden text, and deleted hidden pages and image content.   I suspect that they were scanned with "Make Searchable (Run OCR)" turned on.  There is a huge amount of handwriting in these pages, which would make that a useless process and possibly a big mistake.
I don't know if it is relevant, but runing "Preflight" on a 181 page document reveals the following matches: 169 bitmap images on 169 pages, 1 color image on 1 page, 5 filled vector objects on 1 page, 73 image masks on 20 pages, 652 strokec vector objects on 23 pages, and 3419 text objects on 37 pages.
Does anybody have an idea of what's going on here?  Please?

A "quick" fix that worked for me was to uninstall Adobe... then download the base install for Adobe Reader 11.0.
Then download each of the individual updates and run them sequentially. 
I've installed back up to the last security update which is version 08 and have been able to do normal Save As operations.
You will have to disable automatic updates in order to stay at version 08 until Adobe resolves this issue in a later release.

  • CP will not save after Importing slides

    CP 2 is a flakey one, often requiring 10 times the amount of
    work to do the simplest of things. My project is two steps away
    from CP app-so it shouldn't be getting lost. But, after importing
    only 2 slides into my project it will not save. It just sits and
    spins until I have to crash it using Task Manager. The project is
    not corrupted-it just won't import slides.
    For $600 Adobe should be prepared to release something a
    little more stable than this. For all the problems of Camtasia
    plug-ins, I'm thinking it's still a less aggravating alternative to
    CP.
    Any ideas would be appreciated.

  • Photos will not save after upgrade to iOS 7

    Hi!
    My iPhone 5 will not save the photos I take with the camera, or other apps.
    After I take it and goes to the Camera Roll, there is nothing there.
    This was not an issue with the iOS 6. And the settings are the same.
    Everything is ok in Settings-Privacy-Photos. And in Settings-General-Privacy everything is Allowed.
    Does anyone else have this problem?

  • PDF will not save via Save Icon on Web Browser (All), but will save using Print option. How can I resolve this issue?

    Good morning all!
         I am trying to publish a fillable form to a website for users to fill out. The trouble is that I myself can fill out the form when I click the link, and save it using the disc icon. However when I have other users click it, they can fill out the form on the PDF in the internet browser, but cannot save it using the disc icon that pops up on the bottom right hand corner. I discovered that if I Save As Adobe PDF, it will save my information. When I try using the disc icon to save a physical copy, the information is completely missing from the field in the PDF, as if I never filled it out before.
    Since other users of all walks are going to be using it, I can't exactly give explicit instructions on how to use the work around for this, since it's intuitive to click the disc icon. Can anyone offer help regarding this issue?
    Some other pieces of information:
    I am using the Save as Other -> Reader Extended PDF -> Enable More Tools (Includes form fill-in and save), yet users cannot save the information typed in on the web browser PDF form.
    Thank you for your time and help.

    Thanks for your reply.
    We're using Adobe Acrobat XI Pro 11.0.10 (Latest update)
    This looks to be the only PDF with the issue on fillable forms, but we have not yet posted any others with this issue.
    From that link, you can fill out the form, but when you click the pop up Disc icon on the bottom right, it does not save your typed in information. This happens on Firefox, Chrome, and IE. However when you click the print icon and Print as PDF, it saves the information you typed in.
    Thank you for your help.

  • Fillable PDF will not scroll to 2nd page

    I have a 4 page fillable PDF.  The 2nd two pages are exact duplicates of the 1st two pages, and not needed.  When I delete the 2nd two pages, and "save as" the file, it works fine until I close the document.  Once I close and re-open the document, it will not go past the third or fourth line on the 2nd page before automatically going back to the top of the form. 
    This is not a form I created, and the person who created it is no longer here.  Could there be some type of setting that is making this happen? 
    I am working in Adobe Acrobat 9, if that matters. 

    Thank you!!!  That was it!  Form is working perfect now! 
    Thanks again!! 

  • Graphics-heavy pdfs will not printer to any type of printer.

    They send back an error message as displayed below or they do not prints. This happens in both Mavericks and Yosemite, for both Preview and Adobe Reader, our organization's primary pdf Readers. It only seems to apply to the .pdf or similar formats, as when a screenshot is taken of the individual pages, those items are able to print.

    The current workaround is based on the notion that the printers are having trouble with pdfs, and not images
    "It only seems to apply to the .pdf or similar formats, as when a screenshot is taken of the individual pages, those items are able to print."
    Adobe Reader allows us to convert the pdf to print as an image format:
    Open your pdf in Adobe Reader
    File Print
    Click Advanced, next to the printer name
    In the Advanced Print Menu, check the box to Print as Image
    Click Ok and then Print, the Document should print at this point

  • Help! PDF does not save as 7 pages, just ONE loooong page.

    Saved a document from Illustrator CS4 as a PDF, that I have been doing for the last two years, but now using Adobe Reader 9.2.  Now, although there are seven tiled pages in Illustrator, the PDF version is showing as one long page, instead of seven pages.  "Embed Page Thumbnails" is checked.  I don't see any place else to fix this. Please help!
    Should I go back to Adobe Reader 7.2?
    Using MacOS 10.4.1 on a MacBookPro

    You will want to ask your question in the Illustrator forum. The creation of the file has nothing to do with Reader.
    Good luck.

  • Numbers 09 will not save after a sort is done

    After I sort/reorganize I no longer can save the document. An error comes up says "The document XXXXX could not be saved". I've tried to save in other folders, export, tried to cut and paste to a new worksheet, everything I can think of. Nothing seems to work. I can undo the sort and it will save again.

    I suggest starting with the document where you can save.  Duplicate the document to another one.
    Now repeat your sort/save test.  So long as you cannot save undo and remove a portion of the items that are left in the document.  If all you have is a table, then remove half of the table and repeat until you can determine what the problem item is.

  • Various settings will not save after restart or reboot.

    Macbook Pro 15 Early 2011 here. I keep modifying my dock and some of my trackpad settings, but everytime I restart my computer it goes back to the default state. Safari also opens with the same webpages everytime, as if it's stuck in the past or something. Is this a permissions issue? If not, what should I do to fix it?
    Thanks in advance,
    Ryan

    What your describing with the Dock and trackpad sounds like either wrong permissions or corrupted preference files (.plist).
    Download the free OnyX here and run all the first checks, then do ALL the cleaning and maintainence tasks and make SURE to reboot when your done!
    http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/11582/onyx
    Note: for Snow Leopard or earlier operating systems, scroll down you need to MATCH the OS X version your using.
    After you do that run OnyX again and under the Verify is a preference file checker, check the box that says "show only corrupt .plist" files and run that.
    Note all the corrupt .plist files, we will have to find them and delete them using the free Easy Find
    http://www.devon-technologies.com/files/EasyFind.app.zip
    Once you do those two things, reboot the machine and try to set your preferences again in the Dock and trackpad.
    Another way is to open the Users/Library/Preferences folder and look for
    com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    com.apple.dock.plist
    and deleting those files that way.
    Far as Safari, that could be a feature to open all previous web pages, OnyX will clean that out for you when you ran it, but likely it will do it again when you use Safari as it's trying to be helpful or something should be able to disable it somewhere.
    Tell us what your OS X version is and your MacBook Pro model, it's something like MacBook Pro 3,1 or 8,2 under your Apple menu > About this Mac > More information.

  • Compressor custom settings will not save after reboot

    I am having a problem with compressor removing my custom settings after I restart the program. I will save a custom format and it will show up in the custom folder however as soon as I close compressor and restart it shows 0 in the customer folder. I am guessing this is a bug in the new version but does anyone have any ideas? Also where do I submit a bug for compressor? Thanks

    I, too, have been experiencing this for quite a while in Compressor 3.  I upgraded to Compressor 4 this week, thinking that that, might solve my problem, but no.  Same thing is happening in Compressor 4.
    I have trashed my preferences, but still no luck.
    very frustrating.

  • When I try to allow cookies, the security option of use custom settings will not save after I push the OK button.

    Am unable to get to hotmail because cookies are blocked.

    The "Use custom settings for history" setting allows to see the current history and cookie settings, but selecting that setting doesn't make any changes to history and cookie settings.<br />
    Firefox shows the "Use custom settings for history" setting as an indication that at least one of the history and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that changes were made.<br />
    If all History settings are default then the custom settings are hidden and you see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History".<br />
    "Never Remember History" means that Private Browsing is active and "Always use private browsing mode" gets a check mark.<br />

  • Photos will not save after iOS4 upgrade

    As subject says; wife's 3GS was upgraded. Did a full restore (wipe clean) then synced the backup after installation.
    Not an issue with existing camera roll pics. Those are fine.
    Camera will take pictures....you can then close the camera app, and picture is in camera roll.
    If you choose the pic you have just taken (to MMS, email) an "photos saving" message will appear and never leave. The only way to get out of this is to shut the phone off completely. Upon turning the phone back on, the photo is not in the camera roll.
    If you take a picture, close the camera app, open the camera roll, the picture is there. Shutting the phone off (either by hard reset or using the lock button) then turning the phone back on....no picture.
    I've restored twice, and resynced the backup twice. Same result.
    My iPhone 3GS is having no issues...so you can imagine the glares that I get because I have messed up her phone....
    Thanks to all who reply.

    After reading and learning more about iPhone backups than I ever thought I would...here is how I (with the help of others) solved this.
    -copied all photos and videos from camera roll using the Image capture
    -prepared a backup copy of wife's iOS 3.13
    -deleted all iOS 4 backups I had of wife's phone
    -restored phone to new with iOS 4
    -did not restore phone with backup of iOS 3
    After all of this....I deleted everything in the old 3.13 backup except the info.plist, manifest, etc files AND the files attributed to the stuff wife did not want to lose (contacts, SMS)
    -then, connected phone, instructed itunes to restore a backup...pointed it to the 3.1.3 folder that I had edited...it only had 7 files in it.
    -it restored this "backup" so wife had contacts and sms.
    -after this, resynced all her apps, media, photos, etc.
    She lost her settings and data for individual apps, but retained what data was necessary.
    After all this...what had happened was her iOS 3.1.3 backups kept getting corrupted...and this was going to continue unless a different approach was taken. All of these steps came from various postings on other forums.

  • Newly added pdfs will not display after generating primarly layout

    RoboHelp X5. I'm replacing pdf files for a Help project
    that's been in place for over a year. From the user's perspective
    the files are accessed via a link when accessing Help. I removed
    the link (a link to, let's say example.pdf rev A). I recreated the
    link by pointing to the new pdf (example.pdf rev B). All my pdfs
    are on my local drive under C:\Program Files\RoboHelp
    Office\RoboHTML\<project name>. After updating the pdfs and
    subsequently deleting the old pdfs several baggage files showed the
    red X. I deleted these baggage files b/c they represented the old
    files. After generating the primary layout none of the re-created
    links worked. Only the links I didn't touch work. The working links
    are also the only files that have a representation in the baggages
    file folder. I tried adding baggage files but it doesn't work. My
    PC is WXP SP2 w/Office 2007. I uninstalled RoboHelp (I didn't touch
    the registries). Reloaded RoboHelp and noticed that Office 2007
    wasn't listed. So I went to another PC that's never had RoboHelp
    and runs WXP SP2 w/Office 2000. The installation went fine however
    the same problem occurs. Also on either PC I can run the unused
    files report which lists all the files I need (the ones I just
    added). But I don't know how to make an unused file, used.

    thanks. I actually followed those same steps yesterday (for
    adding a baggage file). I was able to get the file to appear in the
    baggage folder but after compiling, when I click on the link,
    nothing happens. Whereas before I'd get the "cannot display
    webpage" error.

  • Safari will not load anything any page

    Other Apps load and work thru my WiFi (example: email and brokerage account) but when I select Safari and try go to a web page it loads about 10% and then just sits there.
    This is favorites or if I type into the browser bar.
    Is this a result of the recent upgrade to the iOS?

    Is there a way to restore this iPad to factory settings and reload my data from the cloud?  Am I being to impatient here? Like I expressed in another reply to my original post, ever since iOS 8 this iPad has been very slow and problematic..  Almost to the point of making me hate it.
    Before iOS 8 I loved all of my Apple products, MacBook Pro, iPad, 3rd iPhone, iPod Touch, iPod Nano and Apple TV device. But this iOS is not good for older products and I just can't run out a upgrade when a new iOS is released.
    Sorry to vent, but this is happening at a very bad time.....
