CANNOT OPEN TWO OR MORE PDF FILES AT THE SAME TIME

Since Adobe Acrobat is released, I could double click on any PDF and it will open a new window.  I use six monitors so I could open and compare six different PDF files at the same time.

Then all of a sudden about two years, all PDFs started tile in the same window.  This made side by side comparisons is impossible.    What's crazy is not a single person I contacted can understand it.  Even the most intelligent guy (even Adobe technicians) cannot understand how the do-but it was something he always did in the past.

This is such an obvious feature and the answer should be easy.  Someone on another forum suggested this, but there is no button or option checkbox "Display each document in its own window" - which is what I'm actually trying to do.  The person who asked this question is in the graphic industry told me that she never found an answer after more then 3 years asking.

What the devil?  Nobody really knows the answer?  Wow.  If I had to open a MS Word window and click on the program again, it would keep opening more and more windows side by side, so I can compare, cut and paste.

Nobody knows the answer to this simple problem?

I use Adobe Acrobat 7 and 7 Professional.

Edition > Preferences (ctrl + k), under Show place settings check "display each document in its own window" and for good measure, clear check to "open interdocument links in the same window.

Hi Julia,

Acrobat 7 is not supported by Adobe & its not even compatible on Windows 7. It is not possible to predict how the application on an unsupported environment will behave.

Kind regards

  • Input module of data acquisition can be read by two or more LabVIEW vi at the same time % 3F

    I use the DAQ palette in LabVIEW to read the virtual channels of the input data acquisition module. I've done several VI who read many entries of three modules of simulations. The problem appears when I run two or more VI´s reading entries from the same virtual module (for example. first.VI module 1 input ai0 and second.VI bed ai0 entry module 1 bed), when this happens the next errors are shown:

    Error-50103

    Platform AND Services: The specified resource is reserved. The operation could not be performed as indicated.

    and

    Error-200022

    Resource requested by this task has already been reserved by another task.

    It's worrying because I want to get the DAQ chassis and some modules, but if this problem is present with physical equipment my application may be unnecessary. This means that entry module only can be read once at the time?

    I m using global variables in each Subvi to share data with main VI, however, I found the solution in a different way... I just changed to single channel and dbl sample playback mode, so I Don t need to clean up the task of reading in my subVI´s, the zeros isn´t problem here, and the six subVI´s work at the same time!

    Thanks for the tips!

  • Can I have several pst files open while Outlook is running? I want to have TWO OPEN pst files at the same time. What to do please? As always, thank you

    Ideas:

    • You have problems with programs
    • Error messages
    • Recent changes to your computer
    • What you have already tried to solve the problem

    Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

    I also always wanted something similar, but rather an Outlook that manages multiple profiles , which means that you can check emails, calendars, etc., which exist in separate profiles with only an Outlook application running. For the moment, I have to close Outlook to open a different profile.

    As it is, you can have two instances of Outlook running at the same time, which means that cannot open two independent pst files simultaneously. When you start Outlook, it will always check if another instance of Outlook is still running and happening rather than open a new instance. You can programmatically thwart Outlook in finding that there is no other instance of itself (when it is in fact) and do what you think (in this sense the answer is not impossible), but is not an approved approach and you have trouble of programming or run another application - the end result is messy. Runs also two instances of Outlook can put pressure on resources unnecessarily, especially on memory.

    Perhaps what is required is a feature to Microsoft for Outlook request that can manage multiple profiles simultaneously. If you run this I would sign of course. I'm sure that there is a lot more there.

    I hope this helps.

    Hi sindres79946597,

    Open Acrobat Reader DC, navigate to the Edit-> Preferences-> General-> uncheck "Open Documents in the new tab in the same window.

    Now, reboot your system, when you open multiple PDFs that all will open in a new window so that you can easily compare.

  • How read datalog multiple files at the same time?

    Hello friends...

    can someone help me to show how read datalog multiple files at the same time?

    Here is the example of my case.

    I have 500 files in a folder. each file contains a waveform and its setting.

    and then I want to do a card spectral these files, because these files have been saved in the order.

    the point is to know how to read these 500 files at once? I made a program to read these files, but the program can read these files in one by one. So it is very uncomfortable to read 500 files one by one. can someone help me solve this problem? Thank you. I hope you can show me the program. Thank you again...

    Hi jojo,

    Well, in the range of functions daughter, you will find a function to list the contents of the folder. This allows to get the names of all the files datalog, and then use a loop FOR to read.

    No one is obliged to provide 500 names of files manually - that's why we use a programming language to let the computer do the stupid work

    See HairyFool response, and I would add the following. You can select multiple files in a folder by clicking on one and then by holding down the Ctrl key and clicking on all the others you want, one at a time.

    After selecting several files, you can do what you want with them - all remove them, copy them, cut, etc..
