Title: Pitstop Tools Missing-Acrobat DC
Post by: Slappy on August 23, 2017, 08:37:48 AM
So suddenly, none of my Pitstop Tools are visible - either on the Quick Tools bar up top, or the sidebar on the right. If I go to Customize Quick Tools, they're not even in their own dropdown section. The License is still active, and it's installed properly.

I found one "fix" via Adobe that says to check on the "Open documents as new Tabs in the same window" and sure enough that makes them available again, but I don't WANT shitty tabs, ffs.

Da fuq????  :banghead:  :banghead:  :banghead:

Acrobat DC is a turd. Very flakey and everything is more difficult.

Each new update seems like that is Adobes main goal.

Mine is fixed! You must not have gotten the latest update yet. What is your Acrobat DC version? Mine shows:

Have you ever looked inside of one? It puts the reading of the color values where you shift+clicked. Isn't that just the neatest damn thing you have ever seen in your life? :sarcasm:  :sarcasm:  :sarcasm:  :sarcasm:  :sarcasm:

Slappy, you have tainted my Acrobat. Since my last post on this topic, I had to restart my machine because the Finder was acting up. When I launch Acrobat after the reboot I now have the same issue with the Pitstop tools disappearing.

I will get you. We are in the same town.

I've got 20093 and an update is available for 20095. Would that be advisable? I've kinda got ptsd from Acrobat upgrades/updates over the past few years.

I'm on the same version, Joe, and oddly enough now it is fixed (it wasn't earlier when I posted.) I wonder if it got updated without my knowledge. I don't usually allow anything to auto-update, though.

Look at your 'About Acrobat' window. If you see the words 'continuous' as my screen grab had that means it updates automatically without you even knowing about it. You can change it in your preferences. I prefer to walk on the wild side every now and then though. :wow:

Just the icon is dark green. The contents are a lovely mint green background with black text.
