My annotations disappear suddenly, without warning. What's happening?

Community Beginner ,

I purchased Acrobat 2017 Pro less than a year ago.  Aside from the fact that the support given by Adobe is frustrtingly confusing and unhelpful, my annotations suddenly and without warning disappear.  In addition, as I am working with a PDF (a transcript of a trial) the pages suddenly go blank of everything, including the text in the transcript.  I close the document, find it in the appropriate folder, and it opens without a single annotation that I put there, although the text returns.

 

It also seems that the PDF has not been completely OCR'd, and I can't find how to OCR it.  In certain spots in the transcript, I can highlight text, at other times and places, I cannot hightlight text.

 

Sometimes, when I try to save the document, I get an error message telling me I cannot, because the document has been damaged.  At this point, I am extremely sorry I purchased this product.  The last straw is that I got a  message that Adobe no longer supports chat with this product.

 

Can anyone give me some help?  I am working In Windows, the very latest version, Windows 10 Pro, Version 2004 (at least I think it's the latest).
