Windows 7 64 bit apps crashing, dde server error

Hi, I am having problems with a new Windows 7, 64 bit system. Acrobat 9 frequently crashes programs when it's invoked, for instance when trying to print a web page to PDF from Firefox, or making a PDF from a Word document. Firefox or Word will crash, with no errors. Acrobat is also giving these errors freqently: "Fatal error: failed to connect to dde server"
Other installed apps include MS Office 2007 and Symantec Endpoint Protection, SAS JMP, Endnote.
thanks for any suggestions.

Hi,
For now, I think we need consult the SQL Server forum due to they are familiar with this kind of issue:

    Hi Bruce,
    Please open registry by typing "regedit" in the Run window (Windows + R)
    Now, navigate to "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\acrobat\shell\open\ddeexec\application and changing the Key from "AcroviewA10"  to  "AcroviewR10.
    Now, try launching Acrobat and let me know if the issue resolves.

  • DDE Server Error

    I just installed Photo shop 6 and now when I close out I get a DDE Server Error, how can this be fixed?

    Moving this discussion to the Photoshop General Discussion forum.  Can you please describe a bit more about what you are doing in Photoshop when you receive this error?  Are you opening a particular file or anything?

  • Windows 8 - failed to connect to DDE server error

    I installed Adobe Reader 11 on my new Windows 8 PC.  It would not open properly and gave me the message "Acrobat failed to connect to a DDE server" when I tried to use it.  I uninstalled Adobe Reader 11 and installed Adobe Reader 10.  I am still getting the message "Acrobat failed to connect to a DDE server"  when I try to open the reader and look at a file in Adobe Reader 10.  Is there a compatibility issue with using Adobe Reader in the Windows 8 operating system or do I have a setting configured wrong on my new machine?

    Hey Lisa,
    Yep, I'm now having this same issue on Win8 / Adobe Reader 11.0.02 after about a week of perfect function with Adobe Reader set as default association for PDF files (I don't particularly care for Windows Reader).
    I simply re-downloaded and reinstalled Adobe Reader 11.0.02 from MajorGeeks (safe repository for many things IT guys need - go here -> for that:  http://www.majorgeeks.com/Adobe_Reader_d3852.html)
    I made Adobe Reader default for opening PDF files and then checked to make sure it was working... Worked fine for now anyway.  I have also seen on a number of other systems where Windows Reader seemed to get in the way of proper Adobe Reader function, so in those cases I also reinstall Adobe Reader 11.0.02 and that seemed to repair the issue!
    I do hope this works for you, if not, Adobe will, no doubt, release an update shortly.
    Blessings,

  • DDE Server error when exiting CS5

    Hi,
    I'm running CS5 with the latest patch applied. Sometimesn when I exit PS, I get the following error:
    DDE Server Windows Photoshop.exe Application  error.  The instruction at 0xhhhhhhhh referred to memory at 0xhhhhhhhh.The memory could not be "read". Click ok to terminate the  program.
    This one is not new : I have seen similar reports from 2005.
    I have never written any PS plugin and I'm not familiar with the plugin SDK but could it be that PS communicates with plugins through DDE messages (which is a very old and unreliable technology)?
    Any idea?
    Thanks in advance.

    OK, because I don't want to mislead anyone, I took a bit more time.  I had forgotten I have Photoshop CS5 installed on a Windows 7 virtual machine with absolutely no 3rd party plugins installed.
    I took the time to boot up that virtual machine and on that virtual machine I found that this window exists before ever starting Photoshop:
    However, upon starting Photoshop CS5 (into which no plugins have ever been installed) this additional window was created (the one above stayed around as well).
    What I don't know is whether this window is somehow a byproduct of my environment or was created by Photoshop.
    I have several programs to enhance my desktop environment:  Classic Shell (Classic Explorer component only) and ShellFolderFix (an Explorer window placement tool).  I'm going to see if I can bring up a very minimal system without these and determine whether the above windows still exist.

  • 403 error accessing ADF app /  500 Internal Server Error accessing page

    I have developed and ADF-BC application. It runs great using the local embedded oc4j server. I setup a deployment profile and used the ear file to deploy to the application server.

    I have updated the ADF library on the application server per this document.
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/10g/adf_runtime_update_howto.html
    I used the manual method since jdeveloper is not installed on the AS. If it were I would use the ADF installer. Unfortuantely, it did not seem to help.

  • NW04 Testdrive in Linux SuSE 9.3 64 Bit - Logon crashes with DB error

    Hi there,
    I just installed NW04 Testdrive on SuSE 9.3 32 Bit and it works fine .
    But then I did the same on SuSE 9.3 64 Bit version and tried to logon using sapgui. The result is annoying because the logon screen crashes with the following ABAP runtime error: DBIF_RSQL_INVALID REQUEST in program SAPMSYST, include SAPMSYST, row 2529 in module NAME FILL_INFO_TAB. There is an error in databace interface while accessing table DOKTL.
    I'm just asking whether MaxDB runs on 64 Bit SuSE Linux. Can anyone help?
    Thanks in advance

    Hello Tobias,
    according to the Software Downloads If there will be a Testdrive for 64 Bit Linux Systems.

  • Applescript Studio app crashes with link error (dyld) image not found

    I've built a small Applescript studio app that works fine on the development machine but when I run it on other machines it crashes with a dyld error, specifically:
    Link (dyld) error:

    Does any one know why this happens and how I can fix it?

    Rick,
    looks like you built the application in "Development" mode - switch the build style to "Deployment" and most probably things will be fine in the other machine.

  • LiveCycle Designer app crashes, C++ Runtime Error, MSVCR80.dll, 8.0.50727.4927

    I am running Win 7 (x64) on both systems I have tested this on.  One LC Designer cam with Acrobat 9, the other Designer I downloaded as standalone.  I keep getting the following the error when first saving the PDF as a dynamic XML form:

    This is a huge issue for me, since I will need to save the PDF as dynamic everytime I work with it.  I never had this problem last year when I first got Win 7 up and running, am wondering if a microsoft update along the way somehow has helped with this error.  I've tried everything I could find in related posts.
    I can save as XDP file, if that helps anyone.  Just having this issue with dynamic PDF.
    Help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks.

    I have also upgraded Designer to 9002.2245.2.0, which includes both SPs.  Still crashes, same problem.
