Why must I activate my Adobe Acrobat every time I try to view a PDF?

Hi There! I have reinstalled my Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard, as a recent work network upgrade removed all non-standard programs from our computers. The installation process included having to activate it, which I did. Since then, almost every time I need to open and view a PDF, I get the activation warning and have to activate again. Sometimes it works, and I can continue to view the PDF. Sometimes the activation screen warns that I have activated too many times and shuts down! Please help.

Well, it never activates properly, meaning the pertinent data is not stored permanently. Could be anything from local user privileges to networking stuff. Talk to your IT again. They probably made a mess with whatever they did. Activation requires admin priviliges at least for the first time...

    I am having an issue with my adobe acrobat 9 pro. Every time I try to open a pdf from someone it opens it up with my free adobe reader rather than the Acrobat 9 pro so then I don't have all of the functions of 9 pro. How do I get it to open with 9 pro instead of the free reader?

    It may depend on the plugin that is loaded into your browser. However, right click on a PDF and select the Open With option and go to the default button to select Acrobat as the default. That might do it.

  • Adobe crashes every time I try to watch You Tube

    For 9 solid days we have tried to watch You Tube and the Adobe Flashplayer crashes everytime.  We have done everything known to man to fix it.  We can play Farmville but not watch BBC videos.  We have cleaned the computer, unloaded and reloaded Adobe.  We have scanned the computer for viruses.  But nothing solves it.  A man in the computer shop said he could fix it in an hour - if he can why can't I?  PLEASE HELP

    Hi
    No we have not tried disabling - where do we find this?
    Our operating system is Windows XP and we are using Firefox now.  We did have internet explorer but it wasn't working on that so we changed.
    Thanks

  • Why do I get a CATCHA code every time I try to send an e mail-just started recently

    why do I get a CATCHA code every time I try to send an e mail on safari-just started recently

    It's likely that AT$T is recognizing that version of Safari as not compliant with their anti-spam or security requirements for their webmail application. Assuming you are running OS X "Snow Leopard" that Safari version is the latest one. That's annoying because I am not aware of any noteworthy security improvements in subsequent Safari releases, and AT$T ought not to treat it any differently.
    Your alternatives are to upgrade your Mac's operating system, which has certain minimum hardware requirements, or simply use your Mac's Mail application. Or, just use Firefox when you want to use webmail. Otherwise you'll have to put up with their silly Captcha annoyances.

  • Why is Logic 10.0.5 crashing every time I try to load the "Sausage Fattner" plugin

    Why is Logic 10.0.5 crashing every time I try to load the Sausage Fattner plugin by Dada Life?  It was working perfectly before the 10.0.5 update.  Is anyone else having these problems??  Plugins don't get anymore basic (and useful) than the Sausage Fattner....

  • Every time I try to open a pdf file it says i need to accept the end user agreement

    Every time I try to open a pdf file it says I must accept the End User Agreement, so I just try to install it again and it pops up an error.

    Does it just say you have to accept the license agreement, or does it say you have to LAUNCH something (Adobe Reader, or Adobe Acrobat)? If it says this, have you done what it says? Or would you like assistance in how to launch stuff in Mac OS or Windows?

  • Firefox locks up every time I try to print to PDF.

    Every time I try to print to PDF, Firefox locks up and has to be shut down. I have the latest versions of Firefox ver 35, all Windows 7 updates, Adobe Acrobat Professional 9.5, etc. I tried refreshing Firefox and it did not help. I tried making a new profile and staring with it, and that did not help. I am stumped. Can you help get this fixed?

    It may be that you can change the current pdf reader, or try to reinstall it. In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
    #Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click Options.
    #In the Options (Preferences for Linux and Mac) window, select the ''Applications'' panel.
    #In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
    #On the right hand side you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
    Another troubleshooting step would be to try resetting the printing options in Firefox. [[Fix printing problems in Firefox]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

    Hi markw14322597,
    I've just checked your account: Your subscription order is still pending, which is why you're unable to log in and use your subscription just yet.
    It can take 24-48 hours for an order to process, but once it does you'll be able to log in and convert files.
    Best,

  • Why are my iTunes and iPhoto crashing every time I try to open them?

    Why are my iphoto and itunes crashing every time I open them?  This is a new problem on my Mac Mini.  Have the latest software on my Mac Mini and the latest iLife sotware.  My mac mini is about 5 years old, always kept up to date.
    Processor  2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory  2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM

    Hello Majorie,
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (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 the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    Also, how much Free Space is on your Hard Drive?
    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
    Reboot, test again.
    If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
    Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
