Reader 9.3 produces Runtime error for all .pdf files on hard drive and email

Does anyone have a resource that can show me how to eliminate a runtime error with Reader 9.3.1, Windows XP w/ SP3 and IE7. I have recently had all .pdf files located on my hard drive and in emails refuse to open because of this message:
"Runtime Error!
Program C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.  Please contact the application's support team for more information."
So far, I have uninstalled and reinstalled Reader 9.3 from the website; added update 9.3.1 and tried to reopen files with no success.
My organization sends a ton of .pdf files and it is not good when you can't open them for review and action.

Hi All,
Although I don't normally post in forums, I thought it prudent to lay this matther to rest.  I have tested the following solution:
It appears that Adobe Reader likes to check access to each parent folder as well as the actual application data folder.  Apparantly there are other programs that also do similar things. As a result if you have your appdata redirected to \\server1\profiles\%username%\appdata adobe reader would first try directly access \\server1\profiles.  If the user does not have to Traverse folder permission, this fails. Typically you will need to change your permissions on you profile share from:
-                   Users - Read Attributes (Apply to: This folder, subfolders and files)
-                   Users - Read Extended Attributes (Apply to: This folder, subfolders and files)
-                  Users - Create Folders/Append Data (Apply to: This folder, subfolders and files)
-                   Users - Read Permissions (Apply to: This folder, subfolders and files)
To the share permissions suggested by Microsoft in KB 274443:
-                   Everyone - Create Folder/Append Data (Apply onto: This Folder Only)
-                   Everyone - List Folder/Read Data (Apply onto: This Folder Only)
-                   Everyone - Read Attributes (Apply onto: This Folder Only)
-                   Everyone - Traverse Folder/Execute File (Apply onto: This Folder Only)
Hopefully this helps everyone.

  • Search iPad for all .PDF files

    Hi,
    How can I search my iPad for all the .pdf files that are on it?
    Thank you

    Thanks but that doesn't work.
    A .pdf is not a name but a type of file like a picture or a video. It is an extension.
    Searching iBooks is not enough as I need to search the whole iPad, including emails, etc.
    Surely there has to be a way to search for types of files on an iPad like pictures, video's, presentations, etc.

  • HT2506 How can I turn off editing feature for all pdf files?

    The editing feature is annoying because when I read pdfs, I select randomly with mouse on the file, which creates "editing behavior". What' s more annoying is it saves to the pdf file directly without asking me, which causes sync services like dropbox to sync the file, generating unnecessary traffic and disk usage.  I never need to edit pdf files. Please give me an option to disable the feature permanently.
    See this link for other people getting annoyed:
    http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/145009/how-to-disable-pdf-editing-in-pr eview-app

    ok after another hour of playing around i might have half solved this...I turned match off via my account within the store which didn't seem to work properly, but then found another option to "turn off" via the store dropdown in the menu bar which does seem to have worked on my mac (but not yet on my iphone so still need to figure this out). Now I have turned it off on my mac it seems to offer me the option to buy it again - but as i've already paid for the year I don't know if there is the option to turn on again if I choose to later?

  • Can't print or save PDF files to hard drive after upgrading to Adobe Reader 10.1.3

    I upgraded to Adobe Reader 10.1.3 on my Mac with OS X 10.7.3. I can open PDF files on Internet, but can neither print them nor save them to my hard drive.

    I had the same problem and stumbled by accident on an odd way how to save the PDF file.
    After the PDF file is visible, press the key escape  “esc”. A new toolbar above the PDF file will appear. Press the “disc” icon next to the “printer” icon. A window drops down, and now you can save the PDF file in your download folder.

  • Can not open all .pdf files in Yahoo Mail.

    Three computers using Windows XP and Internet Explorer can open all .pdf files in Yahoo
    Mail. The fourth and newest Computer with XP Pro, Internet Explorer, and the latest Adobe
    Reader can only open some, but not all, .pdf files in Yahoo Mail. Nothing happens when
    the window is clicked to open file. How can this be fixed?

    Adobe Reader isn't my favorite, but neither are smug and uninformed assertions about Preview. There are PDFs that render only squares and marks under Preview (http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/24209/this-pdf-displays-with-question-m arks-instead-of-letters), which is a common problem in MS Windows Office generated PDFs, so you may actually need Adobe Reader for Mac.
    If you need to use Adobe Reader (as I do), then it may depend on the filesystem type where you save your PDF.  For example, our Macs are network homed.  Saving to desktop produced the error reported above no matter whether I used Safari:Save As, or the PDF save icon. 
    However, when I saved to a local drive (such as /tmp), then it worked.  I don't know why file system makes a difference, unless Adobe is doing something with extended attributes that doesn't get written correctly to some filesystems.
    Hope this helps.

  • External hard drives and Error Code -36

    Just wanted to know if anyone knows what this error code means. I tried copying a bunch of video files about 600-700 mb to my USB external hard drive, and this error message popped up and said the disk could not be read or written to. I contacted the manufacturer of the hard drive and they said it was not a manufacturing fault, but an issue regarding the operating system.
    Does anyone know why this might be? And also, does anyone know of anyway to get around it?
    Thanks.

    You can try DiskWarrior to repair the directory. If DW can't do it, you'll need to re-format the drive. I'd also suggest a zero out erase.
    Steps for zeroing the drive Disk Utility:
    1. Insert your Mac OS X CD-ROM disc or Restore DVD disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key until you see the spinning gear.
    2. Once started up from CD or DVD, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)

    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from disc to access Disk Utility.
    3. Choose the entire disk (top icon).
    4. Choose erase tab.
    5. Click on "Security Options"
    6. Choose "write zeros".
    7. Erase
    This will take a bit of time because the computer is physically writing zeros to each block.

  • My iMac is disconnecting all my media hard drives and giving "Disk Not Ejected Properly" message since updating to OSX 10.9

    Ever since I updated to OSX version 10.9 on my iMac, it is disconnecting all of my media hard drives and giving me the message: "Disk Not Ejected Properly." My hard drives are connected to my iMac through a Nitro Professional 8-port Firewire 800 hub/repeater, and a Firewire 800 cable from the Nitro hub connects to the back of my iMac. This configuration has been working fine for over a year. Suddenly, and immediately after performing the update about a week ago, the drives won't stay connected for more than a few seconds before the iMac disconnects from my drives. I've tried restarting and reconnecting many times and the same thing keeps happening.
    I have a new MacBook Pro (one month old) that I've been using temporarily to work with my photos and video on these drives as the drives are able to stay connected to this computer—I put a Thunderbolt adapter onto the Firewire 800 cable to connect to it. Luckily I had not yet updated it to the new operating system and I am afraid to do that. I've had the persistent message that Updates are available for my computer on my MacBook but I will not perform any updates for fear that I will lose access to my media drives. I am a professional photographer, so it's pretty disasterous if I can't access my drives. Please advise me what to do to keep my hard discs connected to my iMac and what to do to keep this from happening with my MacBook.
    Thanks in advance for your knowledge and assistance!

  • Setting Printer Acrobat XI Default to print all PDF files last page first

    Hello,
    I have just recently upgraded to Mavericks and also have the Creative Cloud using Acrobat XI Pro. In using Reader 9, whenever I printed a PDF the output would print in reverse order, so all I would have to do is take it from the printer and hand it off; it would be in the correct order. How do I setup Acrobat XI Pro to accomplish the same settings (print in reverse order) on not only 1 PDF, but all PDF files? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    John

    Can a print preset be created that would work for all PDF files and not just the one opened? Just trying to find out since no one has answered my question in 2 days and Tech Support wasn't much help.
    Thanks,
    John

  • When will Reader 9's Runtime error for redirected Application Data be fixed??

    Has anyone heard when Adobe will fix Reader 9's Runtime error for redirected Application Data??  It's still happening with 9.1.3 for only users who have their Application Data folder redirected via Group Policy.
    It's been going on for some time, as evidenced by the following link, and my own personal pain fighting this
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/391738?start=100&tstart=0

    Also posted here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/391738
    I haven't read through all of the posts, but the general consensus I have is that the issue is in fact related to the redir
    ection of the Application Data folder. The main issue being that the use of a UNC path causes the error described, with some mention to explicit user permissions on the root of the folder path.
    I was just recently made aware of this issue in our environment. Apparently we've held off upgrading to Adobe 9.x because of this issue. After a little research, it was apparent that simply modifying the default Folder Redirection policies is not possible because the use of a mapped drive is not supported.
    I haven't had a chance to test this yet, and may not be able to for some time, so I thought I would share this in case someone else might be able to test. The idea being to simply use a custom ADM file to force the redirection of certain profile folders. Again, I haven't tested this using a mapped drive in the path, but I have successfully used the same settings below to redirect other folders not available by default in Group Policy.
    1) Copy the text between ----- Start of ADM ------ and ----- End of ADM ------ and paste it into a text file.
    2) Rename the .txt to .adm.
    3) Load the ADM template into a GPO.
    4) Right click "USER Custom Settings", select "View", select "Filtering" and uncheck the option "Only show policy settings that can be fully managed".
    5) Configure the "Redirect Application Data" option as enabled, and enter a mapped drive path.
    6) Test.
    I'm interested to hear if this is a viable solution or not.

  • ABAP runtime error for 0CRM_OPPT_H and I while running RSA3

    hello Gurus,
         I'm having problems while running RSA3 transaction for these data sources.
    0CRM_OPPT_H
    0CRM_OPPT_I
    0CRM_SALES_ACT_1
    0CRM_SALES_ACT_I.
    I'm getting ABAP runtime error for these.
    This is the error:
    Runtime Error          CALL_FUNCTION_CONFLICT_TAB_TYP
    Exception              CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_TYPE
    I tried finding OSS notes for these, but I didn’t succeed.
    I activated the data source from RSA5, and then I tried RSA3. That time I got “Errors occurred during extraction”.
    After that I activated delta at BWA5, then I started getting runtime error.
    Even though I activated at BWA5, I am not able to see the data sources at BWA7.
    Am I missing any thing…please guide me through this….
    Thanks

    Thanks for your replay... All the DS and related tables are active..
    But wen I tried to re-generate the DS again... this is the warning I'm getting... Any idea why I'm getting this....
    The even-numbered length of the DEC field SAMPLE_QTY_ALLOW can lead to problems
    <b>Message no. R8569</b>
    <b>Diagnosis</b>
    You want to use the field SAMPLE_QTY_ALLOW in the extract structure for DataSource 0CRM_OPPT_I. This field has a field of type 'DEC' (or 'CURR' or 'QUAN') with an even number of characters.
    This can create problems since the length resulting from calculations in ABAP (for example, in extractors or Customer Exits for extraction) is too large to be inserted in the database later (PSA in BW), causing a short dump.
    <b>Procedure</b>
    This warning is only relevant when the maximum length of this field is exceeded during extraction, for example when the field is expanded in the Customer Exit through a calculation.
    More information and a remedy can be found in SAP Note 641744.
    When I search the OSS note, SAP suggesting to apply 883310 note.
    In my company we are using CRM 4.0 servie pak8. SAP suggsting to install service pak 11, but my client is not interested to upgrade to 11 as CRM people are working on service pak 8.
    By any chance we can use specific note which change the ABAP code to solve this problem... Please give me some suggetions...
    Thanks
