Adobe Acrobat Pro XI Crashes when Scanning

Needless to say, I have the same problem. In my case it is with Adobe Acrobat X Pro, and like most others, my problem is also with a Canon product (mine is an ImageClass D400 multifunction). I have had both products for years... literally, with no problems. Maybe 2 or 3 months ago the problem started and I can't tell why, except that I did get a new laptop and re-installed Acrobat in it. As several have described, the problem appears to be intermittent, although in my case it now fails 90% of the time which is unacceptable.

I have tried all the recommendations in this forum so far, and none has worked. Today I tried the "custom scan" option and it worked several times, will this work consistently? I can't tell, but I will add this to the list of things other frustrated users can also try

I recently bought a new computer and installed Acrobat adobe Pro XI which worked without a problem on my old computer.  Now when I tray to scan everything seems to go fine until is finishing scanning and before the document shows up, it crashes.  I have tried to reinstall the program, repair it and updated it.  I am not sure what can be wrong with it but I have noticed that sometimes it will randomly work properly after so many tries, like 1 out 5 attempted scans or 1 out 9 attempted scans.

This is the crash file: Shared Files - Acrobat.com

I've had same issue using Canon LIDE 210..

Here's what fixed it for me.

Open "run" prompt in windows by pressing WINDOWS KEY + R on keyboard.

In run box type: SERVICES.MSC and hit ENTER or click OK.

In services, double click on "Windows Image Acquisition (WIA)" service.

Look for "startup type" under the "general" tab.

Change the startup type to "Manual"

Select Apply and OK

Reboot computer and try scanning again.

I hope this helps someone.

I have Adobe acrobat DC and Adobe acrobat Pro with CS4.

The DC gets that error and the Acrobat Pro in the CS4 Package still works fine.

Just to let you people know.

I hope this helps many of you with the issue of Adobe Acrobat Pro or DC crashing while Scanning.  After much heartache and frustration I have finally found peace with this issue.  Hope that it works for all of you as well.

I have windows 10 installed with the latest Adobe Acrobat Pro installed.  Important to note that I had the same issue with DC as well.

I have used multiple models of scanners/printers, brother, hp, Samsung, Konica, etc...All of them would produce the same errors when scanning.  It was unpredictable as well.  Sometimes would work and sometimes would get the Adobe Acrobat Program has stopped working message.

I hope I do not jinks myself but here is what worked for me.  I created a PDF document with one page in it and called it "scan.pdf". (probably doesn't matter what you call the file or how many pages are in it)...  Open this file or similar file first, then select scan to append to existing document.  Works every time for me.  You can then with extract the pages that you want to a file name or copy and paste them to file explorer or similar...

I have the same problem for a couple of months now. It must be a problem with Acrobat XI Pro because Foxit Reader scans fine.

I am facing the same issue.  I have 7 Fujitsu fi-7160 scanners with 7 Adobe Acrobat DC users, and it happens intermittently with every user.  I have submitted a couple support tickets, and even sent in dump files when the crashes occur, but have never heard anything back.

I have the same problem with my Canon MG7550.  This is a wireless scanner and the problem occurs on my PC (Win 7 and Acrobat DC) and on my laptop (Win 10 and Acrobat XI pro).  I also have a Canon DR F120 scanner and this, whist not completely crash free, is much less of a problem.

Drivers and all relevant OS and software updated regularly.

Is progress being made on fixing this please?

I have exactly the same problem under the same circumstances. Running Acrobat XI and a Canon Lide 220. Worked perfectly for over a year, and now refuses to complete a scan. Error Message: "Adobe Acrobat has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."

I'm not 100% certain, but I believe this started happening after the Windows 10 "Creators Update" . Had put that off as long as possible, but then it stated itself one day....

Please figure this out; my workflow is dead without use of the scanner...

Hi trevora76464419​, brucec40160679​, andywike​, mikeb86531431​,

Perhaps its a Microsoft issue, perhaps not.  Could you please share some information for further investigation?

1) Are scans reproducible in a certain settings or steps?Mention them.

2) Acrobat version
