Strrange problem with Acrobat Reader 9 and power loss

Hello,
I have a Lenovo T61P (6457-A26) with Windows XP, and I have found a very strange behaviour with Adobe Acrobat Reader 9.
Sometimes I open a PDF, and I read one or two pages, and then my laptop has a problem like a power loss (remove of the batter).
I can read those PDF on other PC/MAC/Linux, ... no problem at all.
So I'm thinking about an incompatibility with my laptop and Acrobat Reader...
So for now, I've installed another PDF viewer (FoxIt), and I can open my PDF without fearing this lost of power...
Did somebody experienced something like that? If yes, are there some solutions?

1. It happens with any file i want to open in browser.
2. The Problem is specific to browser. When I open a document in the Reader application everithing works fine.
kind regards
Marcel

Problem with Acrobat Reader Browser Control (LoadFile)

Hi
I am trying to use the Acrobat Reader Browser ActiveX Control to show a PDF file in a window from my application but I am finding a problem. It all works fine, unless I have the exact same PDF file open in Acrobat Reader at the same time. If I have the exact same PDF file open, the Browser Control appears to completely fail when I tell it to LoadFile. No errors are raised, but the control simply appears as a white rectangle with no controls at all. In fact, it is the same appearance that it has if you don't call LoadFile at all.
I have Reader 9.3.4, I am using VB6, I have drawn an instance of the control at design time. I am only calling LoadFile, like this
Private Sub Form_Load()
AcroPDF1.LoadFile "c:\mypdf.pdf"
End Sub
I have read the OLE parts of the interapplication developer guide and the interapplication communication api reference and I can't see that I am doing anything wrong.
Can anyone help? Is this perhaps a known problem in Reader?
Thanks in advance
Mark

Hi everyone,
I have found a workaround, inspired by another post about LoadFile problems. Rather than LoadFile I am now using the "src" property of the control. This works even when the PDF file is open in Acrobat Reader. My code is now
Private Sub Form_Load()
AcroPDF1.src = "c:\mypdf.pdf"
End Sub
I don't understand why this should work, but it does.
Thanks
Mark

I have tried to open the documents with Reader 8.1.3 and this works fine, but i need to open the documents with Reader 9.1.0 because this is a customer preference to open the document with the newer version!
Sorry for my english but i hope my problem is understandable :-)

Problem with Acrobat Reader

I have Windows 7, after downloading Acrobat Reader for Windows 7 (I deactivated the Firewall first) the Programme starts, however does not open any file and does not react to any Input. When I run a compatibility test, I get the message: Incompatible Programme.
Can anybody provide a solution to this Problem ?

You write "the Programme starts"; is this the installer, or Adobe Reader itself?

Problems with connecting to internet after power loss w WRT54G v3

I'm having problems connecting to the internet after a power loss with my WRT54G v3 wireless router. I'm at the latest firmware version (4.21.1).
I found similar problems with the V2 version of this router.
After a power failure, I can access the http interface to the router,all of my settings are there (not set to factory settings),the unit is connected to my ISP provider,I can ping from the router, but none of my wired or wireless PCs can ping.
To "fix" this condition, I have to reset to factory settings, then re-load my saved configuration.This usually works, but sometimes I have to hard reset the unit.
Anyone having this problem? Anyone have a fix?

Sudden loss of power for extended periods of time will 9x out of 10 will corrupt the saved configurations and can only be fixed in the way you already described.
A solution for this is getting an UPS incase of a power failure your equipment will be on battery back up until either the battery runs out or power is restored (depending on the model changed the battery time)

Rights problem with Acrobat X pro and Windows 8.1

We have bought a CS6 creative suite, including acrobat X. If we use the acrobat X in cooperation with windows 8.1, then we cannot delete or amend files without needing to save them under another name ....
If we install the try out of acrobat XI, then we don't have these problems ....
Message was edited by: WouterGS

Hello,
Yes we have done all updates that were still pending.
After a few day, the acrobat XI gives the same problems ... so I uninstalled the XI try-out and installed the bought X pro version again .... also here all updates have been done ...We really don't know how to solve this ..
We had the same configuration on a Windows XP and a Windows 7 pc, and there all went without these issues.
I also have another Laptop with the same configuration Windows 8.1 + XI pro, and there we also don't have the issue ....

Problems with Acrobat Reader

I am not able to fully open all pdf docs despite downloading Adobe Reader X (10.1.4)..Some docs open - others dont, or open with parts missing such as maps being blank..

Ok, I have not been clear enough, thanks for your patience.
I can open AA6 but when I try to open a document I get a message stating, “ Adobe Acrobat has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.” There is a link I can select to view more information. The error signature reads
Error signature
AppName: acrobat.exe AppVer: 6.0.5.399 ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 00060000
I then can select to view the error report. I cannot seem to highlight to copy and paste the error report which is a pretty long document.
Hope this helps
Thank you very much!

Safari problem with acrobat reader

When I click on pdf files to view them in Safari the page shows up in black. What can I do to get the page to pop up?

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Problem with applet, popup window and focus loss

Hi all !
I've got a problem when my applet lose the focus. Let me explain :
I've got an applet embed in a jsp page. There are several buttons in it that allow the user to open modal windows.
The problem comes when the user gives the focus to another application whithout closing the modal window first.
When he tries to come back to the web page owning the applet (using the task bar), then the modal window stays behind it and blocks any action on the applet.
Does anyone know how to force the modal window to be displayed in front of the applet, even when the user plays with focuses ?
Thank's in advance.

thank you for your help, sils.
I've written that code :
* Cr�� le 31 ao�t 05
package com.scor.apricot.web.rpc.ltnp.applet.listener.ldf;
import java.awt.event.WindowAdapter;
import java.awt.event.WindowEvent;
import javax.swing.JDialog;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
public class AppletWindowListener extends WindowAdapter {
     private JPanel panel;
     private JDialog dialogWindow;
     public AppletWindowListener(JPanel panel, JDialog dialogWindow) {
          this.panel = panel;
          this.dialogWindow = dialogWindow;
     public void windowActivated(WindowEvent e) {
          if (dialogWindow!=null && dialogWindow.isShowing())
               dialogWindow.toFront();
}Is that right ?
I don't know how to add the listener, where must I put the addWindowListener method ? It seems that this method cannot be used with a JApplet object.

Collation problem in Acrobat Reader X

I have a collation problem with Acrobat Reader X and HP LaserJet M2727 nf (using HP Universal Printing PCL 6 driver)
When printing multiple copies of a PDF, the result is always in the order 1,2,3 1,2,3 etc. (for a 3 page document for example)
This is the case even when I uncheck the default collate option.
How can I disable the collation option in this version?
Thanks,
Eran

HELP! This is a killer problem. Everyone is banking on PDF documents and Adobe Reader. YOU CAN NOT IGNORE THIS ANY MORE!
There was a registry setting in Reader 8 to force host collation.. it doesn't work any more. Please respond immediately !!!!

Performance Issues with Acrobat Reader 11.0.0.2 when secure mode is enabled

Hello All,
We are experiencing sporadic issues with Acrobat 11.0.0.2 across our domain, users are reporting performance issues when opening PDF documents whether locally or from a network share.
We have found that turning off Secure Mode helps towards reducing this delay and in the cases it doesn't we are repairing the installation and/or reinstalling the application.
Due to the security implications we need to leave this turned on, I am wondering if anyone has encountered this issue and what steps were taken towards resolving it?
I also wonder whether the white list function in the new release 11.0.0.3 would be a solution to this issue?
Kind Regards,
Ryan McCarty

No probelm, so....
We had no problems with Adobe Reader 9 and 10, we encountered the issues when upgrading to 11.0.0.2.
Initially we found that turning off the Protected Mode, helped but did not resolve the issue.
We tried;
1. Turn off protected mode - issue still present
2. Clearing the recent file registry using the below registry path and deleting the keys underneath it.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\AVGeneral\cRecentFiles (this does not turn recent files off permanently). - works but needs clearing regularly
3. Turning off welcome screen by creating - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\FeatureLockDown\cWelcomeScreen - works to improve app open speed.
4. uninstall/reinstall of 11.0.0.2 - works most likley due to the recent files being cleared.
5. upgrade to 11.0.0.3 - issue still present
Following reboots the issue is still present.
When Adobe Reader is the only application open this issue is still present.
As mentioned I have no systems available which I could test this issue using 11.0.0.1 as we have fixed them, albeit temporarily using the reinstall method.
I am concious that this issue is going to reoccur once that cache (recent files) builds back up because the fix above (#2) is clearing the recent files cache NOT disabling it.

Continued problems with Adobe Reader 9.3.1

Adobe Reader stops at the half-way mark in the progress block when loading a form to print. Cannot get this fixed. Does anyone out there have a fix for this. Is Adobe even recognizing that there is a problem with this. Error message keeps telling me that there is a problem with Adobe Reader, exit and try again.

I haven't been able to print any .pdf files since I downloaded 9.3.
My message says Internet Explorer has closed it down because of data executable files. I've changed my DEF settings to allow
Adobe Reader but it still doesn't work. I never had any problems before with newer versions.
