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.

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?
Elaine

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 overit worked.
I appreciate your concern,

CS3 Crashes When trying to open more than 1 file

Hi All,
My work copy of CS3, Photoshop in particular, is crashing every single time I try to open more than one file. I tried trashing the preferences when using WinXP. We couldn't get it to stop crashing upon opening more than 1 file regardless of the open method (Recent docs, File>Open, Drag & Drop, etc)
So then I actually got a new computer (bonus!) and there's Vista Ultimate on it. All was working great until this morning and now sure enough if I try to open more than one file, CRASH...
Does anybody have any ideas on how to fix this? It must not be my machine because I've tried two machines..
Any help is appreciated! Thank you!

If your still running vista Click on control and switch to classic view. Look for folder options. On the View tab look for hidden files and folders and select "Show hidden files and folders". Same tab Uncheck " hide protected operating system files". Hit APPLY then ok and close out.This will now show all files on your system.
Right click on my computer and select properties. Click on advance system properties. Click on advance tab. Look for Performance and click on settings.
On the advance tab look for Virtual memory and select "Change" If you only have on hard drive you should see C drive. what you want to do is select "Custom size". Look for recommended file size (mine reads 12285 MB) What you want to do is put that number size in "Initial size" and Also "Maximum Size" and hit the "set" button. What this does is it lets Vista set a set amount of Virtual memory that can be used as RAM. This will help Vista from wanting the same Hard disk space for Virtual Memory and Adobe Scratch Disk Space doing the same thing. You will have to reboot.
Go to start and type in msconfig and hit enter. Go to Start up tabe and uncheck any start up items that do not need to start when you start your computer. While your in that area you can click on the boot tab. Click on Advance options. Look for number of processors and check the box. If you have more then one core processor click on the down arrow and look for the number of processors you have. (for example I have 4 so I selected 4. Hit ok. Then in the other main window hit apply then OK. A screen will pop up telling you to reboot. Selecting more then one processor (if you have more then one) will allow the computer to boot using all processors and maybe notice a faster boot time.
Did you patch CS3 after you installed it on Vista? Also did you defrag your hard drive?

Some apps stay open when trying to close more than one app at a time in ios 7

I tried closing down 2 or 3 app at a time in IOS7 and there's always one or two that stay open. The icon at the bottom is still there but I've already swiped it up to close it. When I go out of the closing function and come back I see that they are still open and I need to close them again. I tried this on many ipads, iPhones and ipod touch and they all act the same way.

Syncing Issues when trying too sync more than one thing

since the 8.0.2 update syncing has been real glitchy for me lately when i try too sync my iphone and ipod. for whatever reason, i cant sync more than one thing at the same time. for example if i have my iphone still plugged in, then plug in my ipod too update it, soon after the itunes would give me a unknown error then lock up. specifically this error. http://img407.imageshack.us/my.php?image=unknownituneserrorjq3.jpg
sometimes it would say iphone, sometimes it would say ipod.. that error would just depend on which was plugged in first.
its just weird, windows detects both drives fine. and if i have them in one at a time itunes will be able to read and sync that device. unless this is a direct problem with my computer which i dont think, i dunno. both devices work in any usb port. it just doesnt like them both being in at the same time.
this happening with anyone else?

See this support doc, iPod for Windows: Only works with one iPod at a time. The title pretty much says it all. If it's worked for you before then it's more likely by luck than design.

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.

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.

I lost my @ internet browser icon and can not find it. I have looked everywhere. I even uninstalled/reinstalled my os and i still can not find it. Now I can not open more than one session unless i click a link in the existing session.

I have looked everywhere for this icon. I was looking at a video and all of a sudden my screen changed and I had a pop up asking me to hide. I thought I was hiding the strange pop but my @ icon disappeared instead. I looked in applications and do not see it anywhere.

If you mean the address field in Safari, choose Show Toolbar or Customize Toolbar from the View menu.
If you mean the spring icon in the Dock, that's not an application. Open any site in Safari and drag the little icon of it to the Dock; the preset icon points to http://www.apple.com/macosx/
rkaufmann87: The Safari Dock icon doesn't contain an @, and no other Mac web browser icon I've seen does.

Can't open more than one window in PS-CS4 - Snow Leopard

Just got CS4 and have anew iMac.
I tried to open more than one image in PS and it won't let me.
It simply replaces the image that's currently open. If I close that window,
the first image will appear in the window. This can't be right. What's happening.
Thanks

Rick,
The documents aren't replacing each other - what you're experiencing is the new "tabbed windows" feature in CS4. Next time you try to open 2 documents, look at the bottom of the "Window" menu and you'll see that both documents are actually open. Then look at the window's title bar and you'll see two "tabs", similar to what some web browsers do with multiple open windows. Just click on the tab of the window you want in the foreground.
If you'd prefer to go back to the CS3 method, go to "Preferences>Interface" and un-check the "open documents as tabs" checkbox.

My mini ipod appears off and not respond to any commands when pressed the buttons to reset, apple logo appeared and then the apple support site and it shuts down. already tried all the steps, but none worked, and when I plug it into my computer it does no

My mini ipod appears off and not respond to any commands when pressed the buttons to reset, apple logo appeared and then the apple support site and it shuts down. already tried all the steps, but none worked, and when I plug it into my computer it does not appear in the iTunes bar. what do I do?

If MacKeeper corrupted the Recovery partition then even I underestimated its potential for damage. Garbage "cleaning" apps will cause misery but I have not found that the Recovery partition to have been affected by using MacKeeper or anything like it. I doubt that it did so, but I have learned not to underestimate the potential for such things to result in system corruption.
Before concluding your Mac has a hardware failure, try booting OS X Internet Recovery by holding command option r on startup (three fingers). That will force your iMac to bypass the Recovery partition altogether, and convey the ability to create a new one.
An Internet connection will be required (wired or wireless).
At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red. If Disk Utility reports "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" in green then you can be reasonably (though not completely) assured your hard disk is in good working order.
Assuming the HD remains usable you can then use Disk Utility to erase it. Reinstall OS X, restore your essential software and other files, and don't reinstall the junk.

Adobe Reader is shutting down and won't open

Adobe Reader is shutting down and won't open, can i get some support?

Some things to try...
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

Well, I rebuilt the entire workbook... that was a few months ago and so far, the problem hasn't resurfaced. It really wasn't fun to do, but whatever glitch there was in the file, I eliminated it.
I think I should mention that I am using Office v.X, NOT Office 2004. I got a new Intel iMac this week and yesterday when I opened up my files, it opened up the test drive (a JOKE of a program if you ask me) Anyway, some of the very minor issues I had with Office v.X were solved in the 2004 version. (When opening up large multi worksheet files without Excel being already opened, the tabs have white text) Anyway, I am still going to wait for the universal version to come out, but it seems that the newer versions may have fewer glitches (as is to be expected)
At any rate, best of luck to you!

OK, kinda slooow here, I hope I'm not trying your patience!? If I understand you correctly, install dummy drivers and then the drivers that came with my printer, Designating NO default printer! Then when I need to use the printer I will have to declare which one each and every time?
Or, just intall by new printer but do not Delcare it as the Default printer, I guess in this instance there would be NO default printer?
You may not even have the problem!
Have you installed the new printer yet?
There are many more people who don't see it happen than those who do.
PS: there is always a default printer.

Since downloading the iOS on my iPad, I cannot download more than one pdf from mail to iBooks. I have to shut down y iPad and start again. Any suggestions?

Since downloading iOS on my new iPad, I cannot downlaod more than one pdf from mail into iBooks. I have to shut down my iPad and restart it to save a second pdf. Wasn't a problem with the old operating system. Any suggestions?

It seems that I have solved my issue by performing a full factory reset (erasing all content, something which I had hoped to avoid) restoring from an iCloud backup did not alleviate the issue, I had to set up as a new iPad.
Hopefully anyone else else who has this issue in the future will be able to find this.

When I open more than one tab with ikls.ru web site - safari freeze immediately.

I have a Lion OS and all updates. When I open more than one tab with ikls.ru web site - safari are freezing immediately.

In safe mode the same problem in Safari. And I couldn't enable the guest account. You can see an attached pic. It's in Russian, but I think it's clear. I took a pic in a safe mode, but in normal mode it's the same.
