Hi,

For a while now my acrobat reader is frozen. I cannot close this app or do anything in it. Does somebody know how I can fix this because I would like to update my computer. I have a Macbook Pro 2022.

Hopefully somebody can help this helpless student.

Greetings Isa

Hi isa291729968l4m,

 

Thank you for reaching out.

 

If the application is frozen and cannot be closed, try to force quit.

Press these three keys together: Option (or Alt), Command, Esc (Escape). Or choose Force Quit from the Apple menu in the corner of your screen.

Please try the troubleshooting steps suggested on the following help page: https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/troubleshoot-system-errors-freezes-mac.html.

 

If that does not help, try removing the application and running the cleaner tool (https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/Labs/cleaner.html).

Reboot the machine and install Acrobat Reader from the following page: https://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/.

 

Let us know if you need any help.

 

Thanks,

Meenakshi
