Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0.7 (#2): Fix for administrator password request when launching

Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0.7 (#2): Fix for administrator password request when launching

CNET staff

We previously reported an issue where Adobe Acrobat 7.0.7 requests an administrator password during launch -- obviously a problem for users without administrator privileges.

Adobe has now provided a fix for this issue, which is as follows:

  • Log in as an Admin user.
  • Go to the "HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat/CS2ENUDistSelfHeal.xml" and edit this xml file with a text editor (like BBEdit or Apple's TextEditor).
  • Do a search in this file for two instances of "AdobeBibUtils.framework" and change the "Bib" part to all uppercase letters. So it should be "AdobeBIBUtils.framework".
  • Save the file.
