Acrobat crash when moving between 2 monitors - Mac OS X Mojave

I have the latest Acrobat - 19.008.20080

When I open Acrobat, it opens on my secondary monitor. When I drag it over to the main monitor, Acrobat crashes. If I drag anything in Acrobat over to the main monitor, where the Acrobat menu bar is, it crashes.


Anyone else getting this?

OS X 10.14

I have the same problem. I am also on Mojave and have a 2018 MacBook pro and an 21 " apple display.

Same issue.  Looking for Adobe update on this problem being reported by many.

Just started for me when I updated to 10.14.1

As per the last thread of this same problem from October, I was reading the fix was supposed to be in that update but guess not. It is marked solved and obviously it hasn't been.

Temp fix I found was:

1. Open 2 PDFs in tabs

2. Drag the PDF tab you want from the main window into the monitor you want

3. Close the other window

After doing what bmatlockdesign_prof ​said just once, I no longer have the issue.

I have quit Acrobat and then opened individual PDF's, moved them from one monitor to another, all with no issues now.

Thanks!!!!

Jep! I do.

Since the last update of Mac OS and Mojave.

First i thought it was a problem with the panel Preview Output which opens on my secondary monitor. After removing the preferences of Acrobat (and restarting!) i opened the preview panel. Which worked fine. Dragging the preview panel to the secondary screen ended in a crash.
