Why, when I have two PDF file open, is one document faded out?

Hi All
I was wondering if someone out there could maybe help me?
I’m having problems with opening documents in Adobe Acrobat Pro. When I have one PDF file open and I open another one, the one opened later has kind of a grey/black film making it difficult to read.
I was wondering if maybe anybody out there has had similar problem? Or maybe you know what can cause this?
Thank you in advance
Pete

Which version of Acrobat and which version of Windows do you have?

    Hi chrismarks1,
    I think you may be confusing bookmarks with thumbnails. If you click the Page Thumbnails icon (the one above the Bookmarks icon), then you can delete a page by clicking its thumbnail, and clicking the Delete Pages icon (the trashcan icon). Just make sure that you're viewing the PDF file in Acrobat (rather than Acrobat Reader), as you can't delete pages from Reader.

  • Why can't I scroll or use MMB to open pages in new tab, when I have a PDF file opened in FF4?

    If I have a PDF file opened in firefox 4, I am for unknow reason unable to open pages in new tabs with MMB or scroll thepage up or down. The scroll function isn't working at all, and it seems like I'd be scrolling the PDF file, not the page of my current tab.

    Hi aK'
    Nice, memorable user name!
    -1712 is a timed out error. One reported cause (with other applications) is that the application is attempting to open a large number of files, or a file that no longer exists.
    Try holding down the shift key when launching preview. This prevents the application from attempting to open windows that were not closed before quitting the application.

  • I am unable to open another Firefox4 window when I have the Error Console open and I can't open the Error Console when I have two Firefox4 windows open. Is anyone else having this problem?

    I am trying to debug the jQuery to a micro site I've created and I am unable to open the Error Console when I have two Firefox windows open and I am unable to open a second Firefox window when I have the Error Console open.
    I am using Mac OS X 10.6.7 and I am using Firefox 4.0.1

    I personally haven't experienced much of the "reverberation/feedback" when using a headset on the i4S...
    Yes, I have near-perfect hearing too (for scope, squeaky brakes hurt my ears) I come from many conversations on many phones and types and first off, CDMA technology is great for coverage, terrible for voice quality. HD Voice in Europe made for some of the best phone conversations I've ever had.
    Back on track, feedback is most noticable (similar to the landline phone) when using the iPhone without a headset, but for me it's not an absolute criticality mainly because I use VoIP apps alot, so maybe it has desensitized me some over the past year.
    But whenever I'm on a call, and the other person has me on speakerphone, I have alot of trouble talking because of the feedback loop caused. So the less of my voice I hear the better I can talk.
    Have you tried a bluetooth headset yet?

  • When I place a pdf file into a PM7 document it is blurry.

    I have two pdf files that I want to place on the same page of a PM7 document, but the images show up very blurry. What gives? Why would a pdf file not show up crystal clear in a PM document?

    There is a learning curve but you need to be aware that PM has ZERO
    support for PDFs with transparency. You were fortunate this time. Next
    time, probably not.

  • Have converted pdf file into a word document. How do I engage the edit option?

    Have converted pdf file into a word document. How do I engage the edit option?
    jnicholasperkins@

    Not stupid you! To, from PDF--it gets confusing!
    To edit a PDF file, you need to use Acrobat. Depending on how much work needs to be done to the PDF, it may make sure sense to edit in Word, and then reconvert to PDF. Acrobat doesn't function as a word processor, so while limited changes to the text should be fine, extensive updates may not yield the results you're looking for.
    That said, if you don't have Acrobat, you are welcome to try it for free for 30 days. For more information, see www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.

  • Whenever there is a pdf file open in one of the tabs then I can't use the scrolling (of my touchpad) in any other tab in FF4. How can this be corrected?

    Even if one of the open tabs contain a .pdf file opened in it, then I can't scroll the pages down in any other tab. Irrespective of which tab is active, the pages in the pdf get scrolled. :(
    I've tried to reinstall the Firefox, but that hasn't helped. In fact the problem continues even after I've done a complete system format.

    My workaround for this problem is to open the tabbed pdf document into a new Firefox window (Right-Click tab --> Move to New Window) which unlocks scrolling capabilities for all tabs in your original window.

  • When I have two browser windows open, the first with multiple tabs the second a window opened from a link (so just one tab), and close the second window, I receive the Quit Firefox prompt, "do you want to save tabs...?"

    This was happening with FF 3 before upgrading to 4, and was not happening with FF4.0 until the 4.0.1 update was applied, the first time it ran. Same issue on another computer running FF3, so may be a extension related problem.
    If I have three windows open and close the third, I do Not get this. Only when two are opened and one is closed. I could have three, close one, then the second and get the prompt.

  • Why can I not create pdf files from MS Word documents?

    I'm using Acrobat Pro XI (11.0.5), and Microsoft Word 2007:  I've noticed just recently that, whenever I try to create a pdf file - from within Microsoft Word - I get a message:  Word has stopped working"....  and then the word program crashes.   Then I get a message that says the adobe add-in isn't working and recommends that I disable it.   This is extremely frustrating!  I've tried going into Acrobat directly to create the pdf, to no avail.  I've tried utilizing the "Repair Acrobat Installation" and that doesn't seem to work either.
    The only thing I've noticed which might have caused this problem is I just recently updated Adobe Reader - is there some "conflict" going on between having these two Adobe products installed on the same Computer?

  • Why do i have two game center accounts on one apple id and how do i log into the other one

    One day while i was bored i started up a game but all of my progress items and everything that i paid for was gone and it was the same in all of my other game center related apps. After a long chain of emails with the maker of the game he stopped being helpful but we figured out that i have two game center accounts but only one apple id. So how do i log into the account with all of my data?

    Get a separate Apple ID for one of the phones. Or turn OFF iCloud contacts synching on the one you do not want contacts to synch.

  • Problem keeping .pdf file open - "volume externally changed..."

    I use Adobe Acrobat daily in my real estate business. I save or print a .pdf file of pretty much every document I use. Every day, I run into this problem: I'll have a .pdf file open for reference, and no matter what length of time I have the file open, whether 5 minutes or 30 minutes or anywhere in between, when I try to look back at the file and scroll down or up or even just click on the page somewhere, a little dialogue box pops up that says: The volume of the file has been externally altered so that the opened file is no longer valid." Then I click "OK" and try to navigate the file, and all my information in the file is blanked out, it's just a blank white page. I can exit out of the file and reopen and all my information is visible again, but after a bit of time, the same thing happens again. Very frustrating and time consuming, to have to keep exiting and reopening the file just to read it. I work on a shared drive of about 6 computers, but no one else is looking at the same file as me at the same point in time that I am accessing the file, so I know that's not the problem...Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated! Just FYI, I am running Windows 7, and the version of Adobe Acrobat I am running is Adobe Acrobat 8.3.1 Professional.

    Is the issue happening with all PDFs that you access? Or some of them? Could you try and get a new PDF from the web and try opening it and see if it might be a problem with the PDFs as such.
