Vista x64 Acrobat window won't maximize or restore properly

I have tried a couple times to run Windows Vista Ultimate x64, but there have been enough problems that I've decided to go back to 32-bit. One of these problems is with Acrobat 8.1.2 Pro.
Whenever I open a PDF in Acrobat, if the window opens fully maximized and I try to restore it to a smaller window, the PDF document does not resize accordingly. It is still zoomed in to the same size as when it was maximized and as a result, I can't see the scroll bar because it's off the window. If I open the PDF in a window that is a smaller restored window and then maximize it, the PDF document again does not resize and remains the same small size that it was in the restored window with the scroll bar in the middle of the now maximized window with just a bunch of useless gray area where the document should have expanded to. The same problem occurs when the window is manually resized as well.
The only workaround I've found is to close the document and reopen it so that the window starts off either maximized, restored, or the new size that you changed it to. This is a real pain, especially when you're in the middle of doing something in the middle of the document.

So I narrowed the problem down to Logitech's SetPoint software. I started from a clean install of Windows Vista x64, installed Acrobat first, and tested it after installing each driver or program. The problem started after installing SetPoint and would stop after closing it. I also found a post on Logitech's forum describing the problem with screen shots: http://forums.logitech.com/logitech/board/message?board.id=software_mice&message.id=10402 . So I thought I'd found the source of the problem, until I had my computer completely up and running except for the SetPoint software and discovered Acrobat was having the same problem! I have basically every program that I use regularly installed, so it won't be as easy to narrow it down this time. I tried stopping services and testing Acrobat with them stopped, but never got the problem to go away. Hopefully a solution will be found soon.

  • Tecra M7 - Where can I get drivers for Vista x64 or Windows 7 x64?

    Hello,
    I have a nice M7 tablet and I have to admit that despite all the problems on the hardware I like the notebook however toshiba is quite sad, and they never released any 64bit drivers for windows vista or windows 7 so what am I supposed to do? toshiba does not provide support for this computer seriously.
    like toshiba is really absurt, last year I contacted them about a problem with my digitizer, dust was getting in between the plasstic and the LCD through the latch on top and they told me that they will format my computer and all viruses will be gone??? I was like, I dont want a format, physical dust is getting in my screen....
    just because it is a discontinued model doesnt mean they can stop providing driver updates for the system.
    It is a 64bit cpu, it supports 4 GB of ram, it is a tablet pc yes the hardware is probably 4 years old or more but still it is the best tablet I have ever used, I paid 2000+ USD (Tecra models are business models or they used to be) and toshiba is not providing drivers..........
    Dont tell me to install 32bit win7 or vista, that makes no sense, I have 4 GB of ram, I have a 64bit cpu but a 32bit os that is totally bs too
    Anyone know where I can find drivers, when I call tech support they tell me to ....

    Hi
    First of all I agree with you that Tecra notebooks are expensive and are business notebooks but you shouldnt forget that on 32bit OS the most applications are running properly and some older applications they are necessary in business sometimes not running properly on 64bit OS.
    So I think for business 32bit OS is fast enough because you use 3.2 GB RAM that you should be enough if you dont play new 3D games.
    Of course it would be nice to have 64bit drivers but you can collect http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/ it yourself. The most Vista drivers are also work on Windows 7 so you should look for Vista drivers.
    Here are some examples where you can search:
    [www.intel.com]
    [www.realtek.com]

  • Acrobat windows won't close

    Hi,
    Sorry if this is the wrong forum, but I couldn't find a general troubleshooting for Acrobat forum.
    I've got Acrobat Pro XI and for some reason I can't get the windows to close when I press the red x. I end up having to quit the entire program. Has anyone had this problem and knows how to fix it?

    I generally just wait a bit and it closes.

  • IPod Touch wasn't showing up in iTunes (Windows), won't let me restore it.

    Ok, so I got a new computer recently, as my old one was decimated by a virus. Yesterday, I tried to connect my ipod touch to the new computer for the first time, but it wasn't showing ip in itunes. I've tried everything in the troubleshooting guide, but nothing there has worked.
    I have not, however, tried using a different computer, as the only other one nearby is my old one, and I am hesitant to connect my ipod to it as that computer still has the virus on it.
    So today I decided to try restoring my ipod in the hopes that that would do something, but every time it gives me the 1611 error and tells me that my security software is interfering with the process. So I go about updating both the security software (avast and malwarebytes) and my computer, but I still get the same error. When I tried uninstalling the software, it did the same thing.
    I'm not sure what else to do at this point. I'm hoping that I just overlooked a step or something like that. If anyone has any suggestions, that would be great.

    DId you also disable the computer's firewall?
    Have you did this:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    or
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    See if running this tells you anything.

  • With Vista x64, I can't get exported library restored

    I had to do a system recovery on my laptop. Before I started I exportd my library to my exteranl hard drive.
    After restore andgetting all my updates an such up to date I re-installed iTunes and attempted to restore my library.
    Clearly there was no simple, Import Library function so I went to IiTunes support to find the steps. I followed the steps (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451 - How to re-create your iTunes library and playlists but the only thing it has restored is the name of the playlists I created.
    No Songs
    No Apps
    No TV Shows
    No purchases
    Hundreds of items are not available. I did get a warning message that it could not restore some of the songs as they were unavailable (I assume they should be from the CDs I added) but not one song is restored.
    Where did I go wrong?

    According to Adobe's knowledge base, http://www.adobe.com/support/products/pdfs/adobe_products_and_windows_vista.pdf?promoid=DN RTX , you need version 8 with updates or version 9 or better. Acrobat/Reader 8 and below were distributed prior to Microsoft introducing Vista, so they are not compatible. Since Acrobat 8 was close to the introduction of Vista, Adobe provided updates so version 8 could work with Vista.

  • IPod restored on Windows won't mount or Restore on Mac...

    Hi all...
    Trying to help a friend who replaced his hard drive in his 3rd gen iPod. After changing the drive, his Mac wouldn't recognize and restore (using latest iPod Updater). So I hooked it up to a PC (via USB), and ran the Updater there; worked fine, iPod restarted normally.
    Tried to then connect that iPod to a Mac (via Firewire), but wouldn't show in iTunes, wouldn't mount on desktop.
    Tried again to run the Mac iPod Updater, which saw the iPod, picked Restore, it started... but then gave a message about a "file is open on iPod", and quit. There are no files open on the iPod.
    Tried using Disk Utility, which sees the drive as a FAT32 drive, to reformat it as HFS, but begins to do that but gets hung up.
    Any suggestions as to how to get an iPod which works fine with a PC to sync back to the Mac it was originally used with?
    thanks

    Yeah, I did have the same experience, and lucky that I managed to solve it. I remember that I put my iPod in Disk Mode and pluged it with my Mac, opened the disk utility, but went to Tab "Partition" and clicked Delete, went back to "Erase" and clicked Erase. Once it had completed, opened the iPod updater and clicked "Restore". If you cant solve it this way, go back to your PC and do a format instead of Restore. It really does not matter the the Format get completed or not, as when you plug it (even better - without an iPod software) with a computer (in disk mode), it will recognize it as an external disk and ask you whether you want to format it then do a Restore and you will put it back to life. Bear in mind that the problem is the computer recognizes it as an iPod but does not allow you to do a Restore.

  • ITunes and Windows 7 (or Vista) x64

    Hey there,
    the current state with syncing my iPod under Windows Vista x64 and Windows 7 (RC) x64 is horrible. iTunes locks itself up for several minutes, syncing large Music libraries takes hours - and might break halfway through the progress. It's a shame that I have to experience such lacky behaviour from Apple Products.
    Having ordered an iPhone 3Gs, I wonder if I'll experience the same trouble with it.
    Will Apple make it to provide a working sync solution for Windows 7 x64?
    Windows 7 is no longer pre release, so it's time to take some action. You should've downloaded the RTM copy of Windows 7 x64 already, MobileDeviceDriver Team.
    Pretty Disappointed

    Failed while scanning for CD / DVD drives, error 2380.
    Error while opening iTunes CD driver. This could be caused by a corrupted iTunes file or a conflict with other older CD burning applications, either currently installed or previously installed and uninstalled incorrectly.
    what typically works with the 2380s on 64-bit OSs (it hits XP too) is reinstalling the 64-bit version of the GEAR drivers that iTunes uses for burning and importing.
    the GEAR drivers are available from the following page. note that there are two different versions of the 64-bit driver, so be sure to get the one that matches your hardware:

  • [Solved] Audition won't start with [...\Preferences.cpp-253] error on windows 7/vista x64.

    Hi! You have really nice support for Audition - 3 pages of problems here and no solution. Just kidding
    So i've decided to help those poor users, that encounter the following problem (it may (or may not) arise after installing Adobe CS* with Audition already installed on the system)):
    Adobe Audition crashes at start with the following error:
    [\premiere2.0\Backend\Src\Core\Preferences.cpp-253]
    After applying the Windows XP compatibility mode error chages to:
    Adobe Audition could not find a supported audio device. Please check your device settings.
    Then it crashes like before.
    Uninstalling Adobe Premiere won't help, by the way.
    This problem is somehow related to the audition_settings.xml file in the Data folder and deleting this file solves the problem. You can aslo delete the whole folder - it will be created again on a next Adobe Audition start. Here is the path:
    C:\Users\[Your Username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Audition\3.0\audition_settings.xml
    Some technical data on my system:
    OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 (don't be confused - it is in every way identical to Windows 7 x64, at least for Adobe products). I have a strong feeling that Vista x64 users may encounter that too.
    Installed Adobe products:
    1. Adobe Audition
    2. Adobe Master Suite CS5 (without premier)
    3. Adobe Acrobat X
    I hope that my post will help you solve the error in the next release!

  • Problems Installing CS3 Web Premium on Windows Vista x64

    I was (key word) having problems with my installation of CS3 on my brand new (3 days old) computer with Windows Vista x64. Finally after two days of installing and uninstalling, I called Adobe support. I was pleasantly surprised with how quickly they solved my problem (if only I had called sooner).
    Having worked on this for 2 days I have seen and tried everything except of course the cure. So I wanted to put this out there for any one else that is having problems.
    The symptoms:
    - Everything seemed to install correctly (except acrobat which is another story. you can find lots of post about that.). No errors during installation. And when it finally completed installing, all that was left was to click "finish" which indicated to me that installation was successful.
    - Open Photoshop. PS would open and immediately stop working. Vista said it was not responding.
    - Open any of the other programs and the little vista circle would spin for 5 to 10 seconds then nothing. Program did not start to open. Just nothing.
    The problem: Unbeknown to me (never saw an error message) "Licensing for this product had stopped working". When I described above symptoms tech support went straight to this.
    The solution: Download the Licensing Service Update and run it. http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb401528
    Once I ran this, Photoshop opened and let me enter serial number and activate CS3.
    If after your installation, Photoshop or any of the other programs seem to get stuck or you never get the dialog box to enter serial number, the Licensing Service Update should fix things for you.

    wow...thank you so much for this posting. I just got home & followed your steps and now I have CS3 up & running. After 4 days of stressing out, finally someone was able to assist. Why can't the Adobe Experts & Employees on these forums supply this much needed information?????
    I seriously understand why people want to get crack versions of this software rather than paying hundreds of dollars like us and avoid all this BS and get no support whatsoever!
    Thank you again!!

  • Acrobat v8.1.2 Word 2003 Vista x64 embedding fonts without subset?

    Acrobat v8.1.2 Word 2003 Vista x64 embedding fonts without subset?
    Relative newbie: Every time I create a pdf from a 330 page Word 2003 doc file I end up with a very nice pdf file with all the fonts embedded as 'Embedded Subset' when I was simply hoping for 'Embedded'.
    I turned off embedding altogether in the Word Options and it didn't make any difference.
    I have cleared:
    Printers / Adobe pdf / fonts / Subset embedded fonts when percentage of characters used is less than...
    I also have the pdf Converter Advanced Options / True Type Font set to 'Download As Softfont'
    ..and the Postscript Output Option set as 'Optimize for Portability'
    .."Rely on system fonts only, do not use document fonts." is unchecked
    Any suggestions? tia

    Well, I was following instructions on a website on how to create a pdf and a printscreen showed the Acrobat fonts window with just 'Embedded'.
    The instructions were a little vague, to be honest, and I'm wondering if I'm missing anything. The pdf is going to a Print on Demand publishing house so I suppose it may well end up in any printer's you care to name in any Country you care to name...

  • Daqmx 9.02 on windows vista x64

    I tried to install the latest daqmx drivers but it gave me a bunch of errors while installing NI-VISA and a bunch of other products. Eventually it finished installation but now nidevmon.exe does not start.
    Here's what I'm trying to do:
    I already have Labview 8.6 with daqmx 8.7 installed. I upgraded my application to Labview 2009 with daqmx 9.02 on another machine. Now I want to transfer that application to this Vista x64 computer. I also want to be able to run the older application (built using 8.6). I was hoping I could install 32-bit version of Labview 2009 along with the latest version daqmx and visa and then the upgraded application will work. Is it possible that the installation files were just corrupted? Can I install 32-bit daqmx on x64 vista? I don't really care about the memory usage limit right now.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi abdel2,
    DAQmx 9.0.2 should work just fine on Vista
    x64. Are you getting an error about nidevmon.exe? Were you getting
    these errors on the 64 bit machine?  It sounds like you might have a
    bad installation.  Have you tried reinstalling DAQmx?  Have you
    restarted since you installed?

    Dear all X-FI members
    I have an X-FI Xtreme Fidelity card and install with Windows Vista x64.
    . I download the latest driver from Creative SB-XFI Version 2.3.002
    2. I download the Media Source CMS5 Version 5.0.38
    3. I install both of them
    4. I download YouP-PAX XFI2007 Revesion 2 from the web filefont below:
    http://files.filefront.com/YouP_PAX_X_FI2007_Rev2/;748043;/fileinfo.html
    5. I extract to a folder. inside the folder there is an instruction as below:
    Don't click on setup.exe but click on PAXsetup.exe. It gave an error.
    6. I cancel and do it again by clicking on Audio(sub-folder) and then click on
    setup(sub-folder)and then click on setup.exe. It gives me a table to select.
    I uncheck driver box, and click next and go through the rest installation smoothly.
    7. After restart computer. The MediaSourceGo pops up and display all features
    8. I check THX console with gane mode and entertaiment mode. All works
    9. On both Modes, all speakers 2., 4., 5. and 7. can be selected and have all sounds
