Mac Pro :: Getting Spinning Wheel Every Time Open Adobe Acrobat Document
Sep 5, 2014
Every time I open a Adobe Acrobat PDF document I get an endless spinning wheel. I force quit Acrobat, and reopen it, to no avail, the same happens again. Once in a while it works.Â
I was working on a document and when I was about to print it a spinningn wheel appeared, blocking me for working any further on the paper!!! Do I have to do a force quit and loose my document in order to continue writing?
Is there anyway I can save my document?
Info: MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9.4), I can't seem to scan a document
Whenever I open a pdf, adobe starts to open every pdf file on my computer. Does anyone know of any way to stop this? I couldn't really find anything on search. I am running OSX 10.6.3
Shut down computer last night because after restarting it would not open.  A little gear-looking circle just spins round and round. Started up computer this morning and it's the same situation . .gear circle just spins around.   I know the battery is fully charged. Â
When moving check boxes in Acrobat Pro 9, the spinning beach ball comes up and stays up for 10 minutes. Not sure if this is a snow leopard issue or cs4. Computer is new. Running x.6, unibody macbook pro.
I seam to get zero response from apple ( been to the store phone help center) about using adobe acrobat on a Mac. Any body out their know anything about adobe acrobat on a Mac/IMac with OS X 10.7.3 NOT READER but the full system.
Anyone noticed when making Combined pdf files (into single document) that Acrobat Pro only shows the first page, and not the full document. Meaning that one has to manually pull the sidebar down to scroll other pages? My install went perfectly, aside from a few minor glitches, Illustrator and Photoshop (CS4) quit now and again, but removed permissions, restarted and repaired permissions and is a lot more manageable now. Safari and Mail are almost twice as fast now. Let's see how soon 10.6.1 appears.
When I was using Leopard and I hit "Print" I'd click the Preview button on the bottom left and Apple's "Preview.app" would open the document to be printed (with a Cancel & Print button at the bottom of the dialog box).Now in Snow Leopard, when I choose to see the finished product before I print, I click on "Preview" and Adobe Acrobat opens the item I want to print (which does not have a Cancel or Print button available).800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, Mac OS X (10.6.1)
I just bought a 24 inch iMac (2008 version) and love it but still figting my PC habits.Sure this is a dumb question - I searched but could not findI am running latest MAC OS X version. I go to Adobe reader website to download but OS X is not an option. Do I simply use the MAC OS version or one of the other options?
I have a Mac powerbook G4 15" powered by PCG4 (1.1). The operating system is OS X 10.3.9. The installed Acrobat reader is the 5.0 version which is outdated. Every time I try to download the appropriate version as stated by Adobe off of their website, it won't allow me to do it. The cursor points at the download, but clicking on it does nothing.
I'm new to mac and looking for an application that is similar to the adobe acrobat professional. I need the program to scan forms and have the capabilit to insert text, graph from the scanned copy.
I am unable to load any Adobe applications. I keep getting an error that I do not have the correct application/program to do the install of Acrobat X Pro and suggests going to the app store to download such software/programs. The Adobe product/media is for MAC and Adobe confirms suppport for 10.7.3, however the media only contains a .pkg installer file not a .dmg installer file which I need for MAC. I have tried two different DVD media for the same software and this is the case with both.
I recently purchased and installed Adobe CS2. With Acrobat Professional comes a Safari plugin that automatically views PDFs in the browser. However, I much prefer the standard Tiger PDF viewer as Acrobat takes forever to load. I've looked everywhere and can't figure out how to disable this feature.
Using Safari, when I go to a webpage with a .pdf URL the page is blank. I recently upgraded to Lion and purchased/installed Adobe Acrobat X Pro (I was using Acrobat 7.0 with Snow Leopard). The only way to access these types of pages is by trying to download linked file (which sometimes doesn't work).
When I click on some web links I receive only a black screen Examples are:Â [URL]..I keep all software updated as prompted, including Adobe, Mac and Word ..I run disk utilities Repair Disk Permissions each time I update or add software, and then Log Out, Shut Down or Restart ... Â
When trying to install Adobe Acrobat 11 Pro on my iMac running 10.9.4, the install will not finish and hangs when installer indicates "running package scripts".
I was working on a clients machine yesterday and he has OS X 10.6.4. For some odd reason the network shares just randomly disappear, also Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 (and Reader) crash whenever I attempted to open them.
I'm finally getting used to the extra steps required to save a doc in Preview now (but I hate it). What I'm noticing now is that when I open a document in Preview, it also opens the last doc I viewed at the same time..If I wanted to see the old doc I would've double clicked it.I use Preview all the time.There is no Preference to disable this strange behavoir.
On my now-sold WhiteBook, and on my base 15" Unibody, Contribute CS4 beachballs on me as soon as it gets to the "welcome" screen with the purple header, and I have to force quit.
Why my safari freezing on me daily? I am often opening new tabs and viewing 4 or 5 pages at once, and while they are loading it seems to be stuck on the annoying spinning rainbow wheel, ultimately leading me to end the program for not responding.
When I start up my iMac, it runs ok for a good 3-4 minutes, then all of a sudden when I try to click somewhere, I get the spinning wheel of death for about 2-3 minutes. Then when I click somewhere else I get another spinning wheel of death for another few minutes. This goes on and on and the computer is basically unusable, unless I want to wait 30 minutes to complete easy tasks that should take 2 minutes.
I tried resetting the ram by holding apple-option-P-R while restarting, but nothing is working. I have a good 15% free on my hard drive.
