Trouble with Reader Option Screens

I have Windows XP SP3 32bit. I have completely uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader with no errors. I can open pdf files, read them and even fill in forms. When I try to print, change preference or settings, I get strange looking DOS like screens with very large block letters which have strike marks through them. This is driving me absolutely bananas. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Strangest thing, another response to my question pointed out a German
version with the same problem. A corrupt Tahoma TTF font. I checked the
font first with my word processor with no problem. I uninstalled and
reinstalled it anyway and my Adobe Reader problem was fixed.
Go figure.
Thanks for your response.

Often a Restart and a Reset will resolve these issues...
iPhone Reset

Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Turn the Phone On...

Trouble With a Gray Screen

Today I ran into a bit of a problem that soon eliminated almost all troubleshooting possibilities. This morning I was playing on World of Warcraft when the computer pinged me to plug in the power. I did so, and the light turned on indicating that it was charging. But ten minutes later the computer froze and repeated some sounds until I shut down the laptop. I then restarted the laptop and it gave me a blank gray screen. I have tried almost everything in order to try and get a hold of the hard drive. I've tried resetting the RAM with command-option-P-R while starting up. I've tried holding down the option key while starting up to get to the volume select screen. I've tried holding shift while starting up for a soft restart. I've tried running the computer on the install disk and holding down C, and THAT didn't work either. And I can't even have my target volume (through a fire wire) show up on another mac to see if I can move my data in case of having my hard drive replaced. I do have a warranty that will still work for at most 2 more weeks. I want to know if anyone has any suggestions or ideas on how I can solve this problem before resolving to the physical repairs. Thank you.
Model is MacBook Intel Core Duo 10.5.7.

Could be any number of things, but if the computer still boots even to the gray screen, then most likely it isn't the computer itself. The hard drive may have failed or system files are corrupted preventing normal startup. Try the following:
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
If the drive is OK but you still cannot startup then it may be file corruption that requires you to reinstall OS X as follows:
How to Perform an Archive and Install
An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer.
2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

Trouble with Reader

Having trouble with Adobe Reader 9.5. Cannot open program; and cannot open a .pdf file. No error messages, just nothing happens. Tried to delete software and re-download. Cannot delete it - message says patch package could not be opened.

What is your operating system? If Windows, use http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html and reinstall Reader.

Loading trouble with reader

In trying to load reader from the online store, it gets about 80% finished and then gives an error saying I need a registration key. I have had Reader on this computer before and it worked fine but one day it stopped coming up automatically on the list for opening attachments. If I could load an older version that is simpler that would be the best. Any ideas? Running windows XP pro. Thanks

I just wanted to say I was "searching" for answers to my own trouble with Adobe Reader 9, when I came across your post and "graffiti's" answer!

I clicked directly on that link ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.1/enu/AdbeRdr910_en_US.exe and it did WORK!!! I'm so grateful because for days I've been unable to access documents that require Adobe Reader!

Trouble with Reader 9.3.0

Having trouble downloading 9.3.0. Erros 1304 and 1310 keep coming up. I don't know what to do.

Hi,
we have exactly the same problem here and I also figured out, that the GUID seems to be the one from Adobe Reader 9.1. Is there any chance to update an administrative installation to 9.3.1 without uninstalling installed 9.3.0? In my opinion, an administrative installation will be made to avoid uninstalling on the client side, so hopefully Adobe will soon publish a patch which can be used with an administrative share.
Thanks,
Stephan

Trouble with iPod setting screen

Right, Ive got all my music on my 5G 30gb iPod, the problem is, I also have a movie I want to put onto my iPod but Im not having much luck with it. I successfully coded the movie using HandBrake, and its currently under "movies" in my library. However, when I connect my iPod to my laptop, the iPod settings screen only brings up the Summary, Music, Podcasts and Contacts tabs. Also under the devices, it only has my iPod and its music. This does not give me the option of adding Photos, Movies or Games. I have iTunes 7.0.2 and Im sure the iPod is up to date because I only recieved it yesterday for Chrismas. Any ideas why and how I can get the Movies, Photos etc. under my devices and on my settings screen when the iPod is connected? Your help will be appreciated.

Trouble with amazon and screen locking the app with voiceover

Hey,
This is really bugging me, when I want to listen to a book in my amazon kindle app. I can't seem to screen lock my ipod touch, so that I can put it in a pocket or something instead of carrying it around, does anyone know how to screen lock or screen curtain the screen, so that it doesn't go weird. Thanks for your time.

Yes, I agree with this 100% - when listening, I can be doing other things, not looking at the screen. I figure 100% of the people using kindle portable devices are in agreement. My iPhone has a cover, but now I have bought yet a second case to put the first case in so that it covers the screen. But this is certainly not the optimum solution.

Trouble with Parameter Option - Show Value or Description

First off we are on BI 4.1 SP01 Patch 6. I have a Crystal Reports 2013 report with a lot of optional parameters some of which are based on dynamic lists of values which I created using Business View Manager.
My hope would be that whatever values I select would be shown in the Prompt Panel on the left side of the screen.
Rather than displaying the value of "Limited Liability Company" for the Organization Type I get the code of "06".
That is the correct code and it works from a functional perspective, but I want to see the description. To get to this point in my Crystal Report I created a parameter based on a Dynamic List of Values created in Business View Manager called OrganizationType with the following settings...
That in turn creates something in Business View Manager called "OrganizationType - Prompt Group". If I edit my Organization Type paramter in Crystal Reports I see that it is now based on that OrganizationType - Prompt Group and not Organization Type LOV I had just selected. When I look at the OrganizationType - Prompt Group in Business View Manager the Show on (Viewer) Panel and Show Value or Description options are not what I set them to be in Crystal Reports.
My expectation when choosing the "Show Description" setting for the Show Value or Description option would cause the Description to be shown in the prompt panel. Is that correct? If so, then why isn't this setting sticking. If not, how do I do that?
I realize that I could create my LOVs based on just the Description rather than the ID and Description and filter on the Description rather than the ID, but I shouldn't have to. This should work shouldn't it? What I am doing wrong?
Thanks,
Noel

I now understand that the "Show Value or Description" option will have no impact on my situation.
As you can see in my screenshots I have the "Prompt With Description Only" option set to "True". Within Crystal Report I am seeing the Description as expected in the Parameters panel...
However, when I run the report from the BI Launchpad I see the code ("06") rather than the description ("Limited Liability Company")...
Is this a bug?
Noel

Trouble with iMac G5 screen resolution

My wife has an iMac G5, running Snow Leopard; ATI Radeon HD 4670 video.
She was downloading pictures from her Nikon D60 and looked at one of the pictures, when suddenly the screen resolution changed.
I restored the default .icc profile from Time Machine from about a month ago (although it appeared to already be using the factory default).
Screen resolution won't work under any of the options shown under System Preferences / Displays. Any option leaves the screen too large (requiring scrolling to see the menus and the dock at the bottom) or else has strange characters / colors / boxes on part of the screen.
After restoring the .icc profile, I rebooted in Safe Mode (held down shift key while booting) and the display looks fine in 2560 x 1440.
When I reboot and don't go into Safe Mode, the display isn't right even though it's still in 2560 x 1440.
Since it works in safe mode, seems like it can't be hardware.
Any ideas what to do or try?
Thanks.
Keith

Sounds like maybe the Display is Zoomed in?
Try holding the ⌃ (control) key and scrolling down or alternately use the ⌥ ⌘ - (alt command minus) key command and see if that doesn't return to normal view?
The mouse scrolling feature can be disabled in the Mouse Preference and the key command feature can be disabled in the Universal Access Preference.

Having trouble with reading hex from an input file - please help

Hi, I have a txt file with rows of hex, and I need to read each line and add it to an int array. So far I have:
BufferedReader fileIn = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("memory.txt"));
                int count = 0 ;
                String temp = fileIn.readLine();
                int file_in = Integer.parseInt(temp) ;
                while(temp!=null) {
                     data[count] = file_in;
                     temp = fileIn.readLine();
                     file_in = Integer.parseInt(temp,16);// Integer.parseInt() ;
                     count++ ; /* increment counter */
                } memory.txt:
4004000
4008000
3FDF4018
4108200
3C104001
FFFFFFE8
4010C6C0
FFFFFFE8
94000000The above code crashes on the third input (my guess is becuase there are letters in and it can't parseInt letters.
I think I need to parse it into an array of chars instead, however I don't know how to get from the string (temp) to the char array.
can anyone help?

ok turns out it's just a null pointer exception on the data[count] line, becuase I've only initialised the first two slots of data. i didn't see it before becase it was just throwing an error and i never printed it out.
here's how I've defined data:
in the class
int[] data;just before the code to input the file data:
for ( int i = 0; i < length; i++ )
                data [ i ] = 0;thinking this shoudl go through all the array and initialise it. but it gives a NullPointerException on the data=0; line.
any ideas?

Trouble with reading from partitioned drive.

Hi guys.
A family member has entrusted me with trying to sort out her laptop. Her internal hard drive was full and was not letting her do anything.
I found out that the drive was partitioned in half 80GB/80GB.
I then proceeded to clean up the laptop as it hadn't had any cleanup done to it in the 4 years of owning it and it was very slow.
I got to the iTunes folder and moved it to the partitioned half. I then looked into getting the iTunes program to read the files from this drive b changing the folder location through Edit> Preferences> Advanced> Change iTunes Media folder Location.
I changed it to D:\iTunes Media\Music
At first this worked and all the library was listed. Then after the family member got it home she opened it up and there wasn't anything in the library.
It had reverted back to :C drive where there wasn't any media anymore as I have deleted it. Currently it is still in the : D drive and also on an External HDD backed up.
I would like to know how I am supposed to get iTunes to read the media from the Partitioned drive and also use this drive as its storage drive all the time when purchasing media.
I am not all that good with this kind of thing as there is only so much I can understand from the internet

anyone?

Still having trouble with reading text file into array

Hi, This is from another post, I have tried one of the solutions that were provided, but got the following error at runtime:
C:\j24work>java Test7
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException
at java.lang.StringBuffer.deleteCharAt(StringBuffer.java:681)
at Test7.main(Test7.java:26)
My code is attached. My text file reads as follows:
7 5.5 15 5.35 30 6.5
The first , third and fifth numbers should ultimately be int values representing the term of a mortgage. The second, fourth and sixth numbers ultimately need to be doubles representing the rate on a mortgage. Do I need a 2d array??
import java.io.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.text.*;
public class Test7 {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        String line        = null;
        int count   = 0;
        StringBuffer Term = new StringBuffer();
        StringBuffer Rate = new StringBuffer();
        BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader (new FileReader ("MortgageValues.txt"));
        while ((line = input.readLine()) != null) {
            if(count%2 == 0) Term.append(line).append(",");
            else        Rate.append(line).append(",");
            count++;
        Term.deleteCharAt(Term.length() -1);
        Rate.deleteCharAt(Rate.length() -1);
        System.out.println("Term>>>" +Term);
        System.out.println("Rate>>>" +Rate);
       // input.close ();
    }

Okay, modify the code as below:
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Test7 {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        String line             = null;
        StringTokenizer strTok = null;
        int count          = 0;
        StringBuffer term = new StringBuffer();
        StringBuffer rate = new StringBuffer();
        BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader (new FileReader ("MortgageValues.txt"));
        while ((line = input.readLine()) != null) {
            strTok = new StringTokenizer(line);
            while(strTok.hasMoreTokens()) {
                if(count%2 == 0)    term.append(strTok.nextToken()).append(",");
                else                rate.append(strTok.nextToken()).append(",");
                count++;
        term.deleteCharAt(term.length() -1);
        rate.deleteCharAt(rate.length() -1);
        System.out.println("term>>>" +term);
        System.out.println("rate>>>" +rate);
       input.close ();
}Cheers!
