How to fix Adobe Acrobat crashes on iMac with macOS Ventura 13.6.7

Just installed the lastest version of macOS Ventura 13.67. After installing, I tried to open adobe acrobat and it locks my iMac. Rebooted the iMac and it works as long as I don't try to open a pdf. Locks up everytime.

Any suggestions?

Can't open PDFs in OS 12.7.6 - Downloaded FREE Adobe Acrobat Reader DC and it is a subscription... Just hit me the bottomline: Monterey can no longer open PDFs, and Adobe Acrobat Reader DC is no longer free. I've tried every possibility for a Mac app that will open PDFs for free and this usability has become extinct. Adobe wants a sign in and a fee, even though the download file says FREE. Please just confirm this for me, put me out of my misery, and toss me in the deactived pile for those of us who can no longer afford to compute... Thx ~

Adobe Disappeared from MacBook Pro My MacBook Pro 16" 2021 running Sonoma 14.4.1 suddenly has no Adobe on it to open/read documents. PDF documents open in Text and are unreadable. How can I get the program that came with the laptop? (I was running Sonoma 14.2.1 this morning when the problem first was noticed; I didn't use the computer much the last couple of days, so it may have started sooner. I updated to 14.4.1 to see if it corrected it.) (Yes, I restarted the computer to see if it would correct itself, and it did not.) I've downloaded Adobe Acrobat from their website--before updating the system--so with effort I can open PDFs, but it doesn't function well at all--what came built into the Mac was seamless; the current application is poorly functioning, clunky, time consuming, and frustrating. When printing, it changes the borders and has basically ruined many of the documents already created. How can I open PDFs without this new, difficult version of Adobe Acrobat that I had to download? Help, please, in non-technical terms! (Spell it out, step by step. I am not technically savvy.)

Check the version of Acrobat that you have. You may need to update Acrobat after having updated Ventura.
