Does anyone know of a solution to get it running again?

I've already uninstalled and reinstalled it twice.  I've also logged out and back into my CC account.  Neither fixed the behavior.

I'm having the same problem with acrobat quitting unexpectedly on my Mac. 

 

  • I have completely shut down my computer and brought back up 
  • I have gone through the help page and uninstalled creative suite and reinstalled.
  • I tried uninstalling creative suite, running adobe acrobat uninstall log, installing Adobe Creative Cloud cleaner tool, running that and then reinstalling Creative suite. 
  • I have made sure all my programs are up to date on my creative suiste app
  • I'm running on Ventura13.0.1 (22A400).  I will also attach the error log I receive from acrobat whenever I try opening up a pdf.(Acrobat error log.rtf)


I work on pdfs everyday and is a large percentage of my workday is using acrobat to preflight our pdf files.  Is there anything else I can do to fix this? 

Thanks

Good Morning,

I followed the instructions above in that order and I'm still crashing when I open acrobat. Attached is my error log.  Please let me know what the next steps are.
