Adobe Acrobat DC has zapped my security settings and watermark saved, help...
Hello
I just installed the following Tech Comm 2015 (on subscription). He installed an update to Acrobat for DC and it's horrible, I hate it. He blew my saved security settings and the older version of Acrobat has disappeared. Where they hid the option to watermark? The clues as if all of my saved stuff like saved watermarks and security settings are hidden somewhere I can shoot in the new version?
So, I hate the way that Adobe makes difficult upgrades. My subscription to Office 365 is a dream full of improvements seamless automated, compared to this expensive mega package which took all afternoon to deal with, and I had my hard drive to the bits and pieces of a "suite" of search and reset everything up.
OK, so I just answered my own questions so'm in answers here in case someone searches for similar things...
So... it seems that all the user settings are not carried forward with the upgrade and I know it was not even an option to check something for this.
So, to find the things you need... look
Drive:\Users\YOU\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Acrobat\11.0...
11 was the last version on my PC and where were the critical bits.
In preferences, there is a subdirectory called watermark. So I just copied it in the directory of 2015.
Ditto for the Security directory. Do security policy appear, in Acrobat to manage security policies and to make them favorites.
What a flippin saga! I'm on a flippin subscription in interest. It shouldn't be that amount of the intervention of the user. You probably expect to keep your own settings by DEFAULT with maybe a clean install option. So I have the experience, it's a frustration "I hate the upgrade" thing... probably is not what they wanted. It is not rocket science customer just to the point. Oh I forgot, we're talking about Adobe here.

"Adobe Acrobat DC has stopped working" shortly after I open the program without doing anything
Recently I bought Adobe Acrobat DC and installed on my machine. However, it's very weird: whenever I open the program, just in a few seconds a Windows System Message will appear "Adobe Acrobat DC has stopped working".
I tried to uninstall and install all programs PDF on my PC several times (including your Acrobat & reader DC as well as other like Foxit Reader PDF viewers), but the problem persists.
I also tried the "repair install" under the two menu 'Help' so that in the Control Panel, but did not work as well.
Could I get a response? Don't want to lose my subscription each month.
My PC is Windows 7 Service Pack 1. It is 64-bit.
Hi Omegaman22,
Try this: -.
1. do you have the preview pane enabled in file Explorer? If so, you can temporarily disable it to see if the problem goes away? On Windows 8, in Explorer, go to the view tab, and if you press the button "Preview Pane", UN-press it. On Windows 7, upwards to the right (to the left of the help icon) there is a button "show preview pane." UN-press it.
2. ensure that the following directories exist on your machine. If this isn't the case, please create them:
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Adobe\Acrobat\DC\ToolsSearchCacheAcro
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Adobe\Acrobat\DC\ToolsSearchCacheRdr
Replace USERNAME with your username.
Is - do this 1 or 2 to solve this problem?
Kind regards

A run the system restore, and now my Adobe Acrobat license has exceeded its limit
I tried to restore computer because of a corrupted installation and it deleted Adobe Acrobat, since the system restore did not work, I have reinstalled the operating system, corrected and then installed Adobe Acrobat Professional of XI, entered my license and it comes up with amounts excesses of this license. I would just get the license reactivated. Any help would be appreciated. I tried to call and Adobe is closed on weekends, cat I tried but nobody came online in some time so now, try the forums as they are 24/7.
Thank you-
Jake
You need to talk to Adobe, not users on the forums, because only Adobe can reactivate something on their end. I guess the numbers increase during the work week.

Adobe Media Encoder has encountered an unexpected error and cannot continue.
Adobe Media Encoder has encountered an unexpected error and cannot continue, is the message I see displayed when I go to open Media Encoder. No errors, nothing to verify code. This seems to be a wide response. My CC is updated and are therefore all my programs. I really enjoy using this program, so I look forward to solve! Please help me. I'm on Windows 10. I'm not sure if I used the app since my upgrade to Windows 10.
I had this problem too, uninstalled and reinstalled nothing is done and has been subject to clean my entire setup as suggested. However, I read somewhere that the removal of the:
C:\Users\ USER nameMedia \Documents\Adobe\Adobe encode
Directory would be useful, and it worked for me - replace USERNAME with your directory name of the account (username).
I have saved everything beforehand and reloaded just the presets (by copying the directory C:\Users\USERNAMEDocuments\Adobe\Adobe Media Encoder\10.0\Presets from the backup in the directory\Documents\Adobe\Adobe Media Encoder\10.0 C:\Users\USERNAME, overwrite the PresetTree.XML file) and all is well.
SOUL was flaky on three machines, through many versions. When it works it's great, but my experience gave me a general lack of confidence in the app less recently, so I was a bit of relaxation, but the latter takes me right back to where I was. What a shame.

I'm launching the CC Office tab in the menu at the top of my macbook pro bar. The "CC" icon is grayed out now and the message I get when you click on ' impossible to get on the Adobe servers. Please check your firewall settings and try again in a few minutes. I do not have a firewall on my computer and until yesterday it was working fine. I used the CC yesterday to work on a different network, but now I am unable to access it from home.
I tried things that seem obvious to me as uninstall then reinstall the software of Office CC and I turned my mac and turn it on again a few times but nothing helped. I have also tried to follow the other forum posts asking for similar solutions but don't really understand what they are all talk. If anyone can help it would be much appreciated.
Thank you, Jamie
