I have a G4 Powerbook which has been running Acrobat 5 with the patch, in OSX without any troubles. I have to use the Distiller in OS9 to output PDF's from Quark. No problems. Except lately Acrobat & Acrobat Reader wont start, it commence to open then stops and comes up with 'the application Acxrobat has unexpectedly quit. The system and other applications have not been affected'. I have re-istalled it from the disk checked back on anything I might have added to the computer since this has been happening, but to no avail. Any help would be appreciated as I am very stuck and use Acrobat all the time! Thankyou

leroy,

I don't know who discovered this or how but it seems to work!

Go into your System Preferences. Click on the International pane. Click on the Language tab. Rearrange the bottom two languages in the list. Close System Preferences.
