Problems to open more than 1 PDF file simultaneously

Hi, Please I don't get to open simultaneously 2 ou more PDF files using Adobe Acrobat Reader or Adobe Acrobat Professional.
If Itry to open a second PDF file it show the follow message: "you can not use multiple instance of program at the same time".
And more: my computer (with windows xp system) start to spelling the physical memory if I try to open a second PDF file through the command Open in the File Menu of Adobe Acrobat.
I had try uninstall and install again the these programs, but the problem persist.
What can I do?
It could be necessary format my computer?
Thank you,
Diego Pinheiro

It's a problem from Adobe!!!
If you deinstall Adobe Reader 9.1 and install the older version 8.1.3, then you can work normally and you can open more than one document from an email or a directory.
So: Good bye to Adobe 9.1 !!!
And nobody else has this problem ???? Only me ????

  • Opening more than one PDF file at a time causes corrupted rendering

    For one of our users, opening any PDF file by itself works fine.  If any PDF file is open and he tries to open a second PDF, the computer hangs for 15-30 seconds and then when a second Adobe Reader window comes up, the document display incorrectly with lots of graphical artifacts.  The first PDF file opened continues to function normally.  If we close Adobe Reader and open the second PDF from before, it displays normally without problem.  Opening a second PDF (any PDF at all) again causes a brief hang and then it displays incorrectly.
    We have tried uninstalling Adobe Reader, deleting the Adobe folders from Program Files and Program Files\Common Files, deleting the Adobe registry keys from HKCU\Software and HKLM\Software and reinstalling version 9.4 from scratch, but that has not corrected the problem.  The user indicated this didn't occur in Adobe 8.x but has been a problem since updating to 9.x.  I am not willing to install such an old and vulnerable version of the program on his computer just so it will work as expected.  Please let me know if there are any specific causes and/or resolutions for this problem.

    It turns out that it was the 2D graphics acceleration feature in Adobe Reader.  The problems would go away when disabling the acceleration but went away when the video driver was updated.  It would be easy to assume it was a problem with the original video driver, but it's not always such an open and shut case.  It could be that Adobe Reader just doesn't properly identify what acceleration is supported before it tries to use it.

  • CS5 Will not open more than one photo/file simultaneously

    In CS5, when I select more than one image to open together, only the last image in the selected group opens. Also, when I select "new" to open a new page on whitch to paste multiple copies of an open image, the open image deletes. Have never had this problem in previous versions of PS and version CS3 that I have kept until I get CS5 to function, works fine completing these functions. I couldn't find any setting in preferences to resolve this issue.
    I am using CS5 on a Mac running Snow Leapord OS10.6.8

  • Reader X shuts down when trying to open more than one pdf, or when clicking certain categories in settings

    Until a few weeks ago I have never had a problem opening more than one pdf at a time. Now Reader just shuts down when I try to do so. The same thing happens when I click on the yellow highlighted categories in settings. All the other categories open fine.
    Appreciate the help of anyone who can help me solve this.

    I guess you didn't know, but yes you can close more than one app at a time. You can close up to 3 apps at a time in the new IOS7 on the iPhone. Try opening at least 3 apps and then double click the main button to see what apps are opened. Then swipe to the left to see the three of them on your screen. Your not gonna see the ones on the side entirely but you can still put all three fingers on them, then simply swipe them up and it closes them up.
    The thing is, when you have let say 10 apps open, and you start using this trick, some of them will stay open meaning you swiped them up to close them down but the bottom icon stays there. When you come back to your main IOS desktop and then go back to close the programs that you have opened, you can see that those apps are still opened. There is only like 2 or three out of all the 10 you had opened that stayed open, but none the less it's a bug in the system I presume.
    You also asked about the icon at the bottom. When you are seeing what apps are opened, there is always a small icon at the bottom and on top you have a representation of what you were working on, and that is the part you swipe up. But often time the bottom icon will stay opened after swiping 2 or 3 of the apps to close them.

  • How to open more than one RAW-File by drag&drop/doubleclick with CS2?

    Hello,
    is it possible to open more than one RAW-file from iPhoto with Photoshop's RAW-converter in just one single step? If I drag&drop my selection to my Photoshop-Icon, PS opens just the iPhoto-created library-JPGs of the RAW-files but not the RAWs itself (I've turned out the copyying of the imported photos to the iPhoto-library. Instead iPhoto seems to create a JPG for the library from every RAW I import). If I doubleclick a selection of RAWs in iPhoto just the doubleclicked RAW-File will be opened in Photoshop. Is it possible to select more than one RAW-file in iPhoto and get Photoshop to open all the selected RAWs but not the JPGs? It would make my work a lot easier... thank you.
    rockenbaby

    hello
    try selecting the photos that you want however many- go, File then Export.
    you can make all your file selections image size etc and then save them direct to your PS file.
    hope this helps.

  • Adobe Reader XI won't open more than one PDF

    The latest Adobe Reader (11.0.02) won't open more than one PDF at a time. Seems to require continual re-install for each open. And each time I install, it says the application is already present on my machine, yet I cannot find it anywhere. Any suggestions out there?

    Thanks for getting back to me, Pat. I need to go back to wherever I was and
    remove the question. After I posted my question, I decided to delete all of
    the Adobe applications on my computer and start overŠit worked.
    I appreciate your concern,

  • Can't open more than one InDesign file at a time.

    InDesign CS6
    Sometimes, when I try to open a second or third InDesign file I get this message:
    [Cannot open "file-name.indd" please close one or more Adobe InDesign documents or books or libraries and try again]
    If I close all open files, it lets me open one file.
    If I quit, and restart Id, I can open more than one file for a while, then it starts to show this error message again.
    Interestingly, it was doing this same behavior in Id CS 5.5.
    I was hoping that upgrading to CS6 would cure it of this.
    Any ideas?

    As a general comment, most users don't have a problem opening multiple files, so this is probably something local on all of your systems (though not necessarilty the same thing).
    Standard things to try for troubleshooting are removing all third-party plugins, including any font manager auto-activation, creating a new user account and try that, trash your prefs (see Replace Your Preferences) and start your machine with background programs disabled.

  • Can you open more than one ER file at a time?

    I was wondering if you can open more than one file at a time in ER?
    I attempted it, however, it does not appear that I can do that like other Adobe products.  (If not, it would be  nice to have the ability of working, or opening more than one file at time within ER.)

    Thanks for the suggestion!  We definitely agree that having multiple files open is a key enhancement and have it in our roadmap for future updates.

  • Problems with opening Acrobat Pro 9 PDF files

    Hi. We use Acrobat Pro 9.0.0 to convert our product documentation Word files into PDFs. During the last weeks our customers report more and more problems with opening these files. We usually deliver those on a DVD with Acrobat Reader 5 or another older version. (Please don't ask me why we're still on these old versions!) Did anyone experience similar problems with Acrobat Pro 9 PDF files and older versions of the Acrobat Reader? Does Acrobat Pro 9.0.0 work smoothly with the newest Acrobat Reader 9.1 download?
    Please post your comments. Thx a lot - Kay

    I would recommend distributing higher version of Reader as version 5 is just too old but looks like you can't go there.
    Acrobat 9 PDFMaker and Adobe PDF printers by default create PDF 1.5 compaible files. PDF 1.5 compatible files can be opened only in Acrobat 6 and above. That's probably the reason why your customers can't see the contents.
    What you can do is to change your conversion settings to produce PDF 1.4 compatible files:
    - In Word, select Acrobat tab or Adobe PDF menu (depending on your version of Word), select Settings
    - Select "advanced settings" in the dialog that comes up
    - Choose compatibility as "Acrobat 5", PDF 1.4
    IF you print to Adobe PDF printer, you'll find a similar setting in the print dialog.

  • Cannot open more then one PDF file at a time without crashing

    Started having a issue where if I try to open multiple PDF files Acrobat Reader closes. The most I can have open is one. If I go to open a second pdf file it looks like it will open but then it closes and takes the first window down with it. Installed 9.3.2, Uninstalled and Reinstalled along with running a repair. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    It turns out that it was the 2D graphics acceleration feature in Adobe Reader.  The problems would go away when disabling the acceleration but went away when the video driver was updated.  It would be easy to assume it was a problem with the original video driver, but it's not always such an open and shut case.  It could be that Adobe Reader just doesn't properly identify what acceleration is supported before it tries to use it.

  • Cannot open more than 1 PDF

    I have Windows XP Pro SP3 32-bit.  I am able to open a single document without problems.  However, if I try to open another PDF, a Reader window opens that is blank, my computer freezes for about 10 seconds, and the entire screen flickers about every 3 seconds.  Once this is over, the blank window remains and I can then close it.  After closing it, I can continue working with the first PDF without any problems.  This is the first time I have experienced this, and it happened shortly after the latest Adobe Reader update.  Any ideas on what is going on and how I can fix it?  I have already tried uninstalling everything Adobe in Add/Remove programs and reinstalling, but I'm still having the same problem.

    When I try opening a second PDF it goes back to the first PDF which is already open and the new one does not open. I have to delete the already open PDF to open a new one.
    My friend has the same issue with his but originally he also could open up to 5 PDFs.

  • Cannot open more than one PDF at a time

    Hi, when I open a PDF my laptop automatically closes any other PDF's open - I have uninstalled & reinstalled all Adobe products but still have the same issue - help!

    What has changed (a few versions of Reader ago) is that instead of each PDF opening in a part of one window, Reader opens a separate window for each. (A lot of people don't like this, but it's the way Microsoft recommended at that time).
    Now, each of these PDFs-in-a-window can fill the screen, or can be smaller. You can use Window > Tile for example, or resize so you have a bit of an overlap. You should also be able to choose between the different windows right in the task bar by holding down the mouse on the Adobe Reader icon.
