Acrobat 5.05 2003-03-11 06:23 pm I am running Acrobat 5.05 in a Windows XP environment with Office XP. Several days ago, when I open a pdf document, acrobat opens and I see the document then it automatically closes and the document is gone. I uninstalled and then re-installed Acrobat, but it still does the same thing! I even did a manual unistall and reinstalled, but the same thing continues to happen.Any help would be greatly appreciated!Best regards,Barry Quote Selected
Re: Acrobat 5.05 Reply #2 – 2003-03-11 09:11 pm Not at all off topic. One of the individuals to whom I am trying to transmit sheet music (NWC to PDF) is having trouble getting Acrobat Reader to work. None of the obvious fixes have solved the problem, so far. It's not a general problem with Acrobat Reader (versions 4.05 or 5.05) or with XP, either. It's something peculiar to that user.Perhaps Acrobat Reader was installed under a specific user login, rather than administrative (all users). If so, than the computer may think that an unauthorized user is attempting access Acrobat Reader, or the document to be opened. It may be that an earlier (incompatible) version of Acrobat Reader is accessible to all users, but a more recent version was installed for a specific user.I would suggest a full removal of all Acrobat Reader components, re-boot, then a fresh re-install, being sure that the installation is with administrative privileges, and is available for all users.

Re: Acrobat 5.05 Reply #4 – 2003-03-12 01:01 pm Acrobat 5 is prone to total, silent failure if there is a font on your system that it does not like. Do you have an older copy of NWORN3 font (or any other unusual fonts) installed on your system? If you have an older copy of NWORN3, you should update it with the new version at https://forum.noteworthycomposer.com/?topic=2312.See also: https://forum.noteworthycomposer.com/?topic=2202 Quote Selected
Re: Acrobat 5.05 Reply #5 – 2003-03-12 01:25 pm It seems that Robert (I suppose it was him) removed the user tip #78 !? Quote Selected
Re: Acrobat 5.05 Reply #6 – 2003-03-12 03:32 pm Yes, I removed the user tip (just yesterday, sigh!) But see me reply to the NWORN3 forum thread. Quote Selected
Re: Acrobat 5.05 Reply #8 – 2003-03-12 09:04 pm Gosh, I didn't know that a restoration was possible. Also, I see (my reply 6) that I was half-awake at the time. Quote Selected
Re: Acrobat 5.05 Reply #9 – 2003-03-12 09:09 pm Perhaps "reconstructed" is a better description of what was done. We had an archive copy of this tip which was used to rebuild the actual tip. Quote Selected
