Error 105

[anonyms0008]

Hello,

I have attempted the workaround methods for error 105 when trying to save a document as stated in previous posts.  I believe this has to do with adobe not recognizing my account and keeps telling me to subscribe, although my account shows the payment history to Adobe Acrobat DC for the past year.  Does anyone have a solution to this problem, if they have encountered it before?  Otherwise, I will be finding another program that works with PDFs and cancel this subscription.

Hi there

Hope you are doing well and sorry for the trouble. AS described you are getting the error 105 when trying to save the file and its telling you to subscribe.

Would you mind sharing the screenshot of the exact error message that you get for a better understanding? Please try to signout of the application, reboot the computer once and sign in back and check.

If you are getting the error 'The document could not be saved. There was a problem reading the document (105)' please try to save the file as follows:

Open the PDF > Go to File > "Save as other" option and choose "Optimized PDF."

Let us know if you are referring to something else.

Regards

Amal

Hello Amal,

Thank you for the reply.  

For the subscription I was able to fix the error by logging out a few times and running a troubleshoot on the application.  Next will be to remove the application from the computer and seeing if installing again would work.

As for the error, the one you described is the correct error but I don't have the "Optimized PDF" option.  Somehow I was able to save the PDF by emailing a link and getting that to save.  Not sure but the problem might be that is a document requiring a signature, although I have not encountered this problem before.  Hopefully enstalling the program again will help.

Thank you again

I am on a desktop and getting the same issue. The option to "Optimize PDF" is greyed out (unavailabe). Has anyone found a soultion yet?

Hi there

Hope you are doing well and sorry to hear that .

Is this an issue with a particular PDF or with all the PDF files that you try to optimize?

What is the version of the Adobe Acrobat application you are using? to check the version go to help > about Acrobat and make sure you have the latest version 22.1.20085 installed. Go to help > check for updates and reboot the computer once.

Also, try to repair the installation from the help menu For Windows only and check.

you may also try to reset the Acrobat preferences as described here https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/how-to-reset-acrobat-preference-settings-to-defau...

Also, try to create a new test user profile in windows are enable the root account in Mac and try using the application there and check.

Regards

I had the same problem when I used the "save" and "save as" functions.  But when I used the right-hand menu to "save a copy," it worked.

Hi there

What happens when you try to do save or save as? Do you get any error messages? If yes, please share the screenshot of the same for a better understanding.

Please go to Edit (Win), Adobe Acrobat (Mac) > Preferences > General > Uncheck 'Show online storage when saving file' and 'Show online storage when opening file' > click OK and reboot the computer once.

Let us know how it goes.

Regards

Amal

The "save a copy" worked for me too - first "save a copy", then close, re-open, sign and save.

After speaking with someone in customer service at Adobe, the problem is that many of the "forms" down loaded from the net have "restrictions" on them. You can quickly check to see if this is the problem by looking under properties in the form. 

If the form is "restricted" the solution is very simple. Down load a fresh copy from the web, save a copy to your computer (either to your desk top or one of your files) and the restrictions are automatically removed. You should then be able to use the form/adobe as normal.
