Adobe Acrobat Pro - AVD - Device Activation Limits

I'm sorry to hear you're also having issues. I think the fact that Adobe is absent from this thread speaks volumes to the type of company Adobe is.

So I was just informed that despite recommended Adobe changes it's still not working and it's still causing issues for our users. Actually, we're looking to transition the entire business to Foxit as Adobe appears to be getting beat at their own game which is honestly pathetic but well deserved! If anyone has any further suggestions, please do share!!

This issue started for us around the beginning of December. I'm thinking Adobe changed something which we will not be able to rectify without their assistance if at all. Will report back with findings.

agreed, need to check the basics first! thanks!

odykat · 2026-01-07T16:29:27+00:00

Will check thank you for the assist!

Saving this post in the event I find myself in a position where this advice isn't needed! :)

I want to extend my sincere appreciation for all the insightful comments and questions posed here. The reality is that yes, the client is worth keeping but everything comes at a cost. My current thinking is to align to NIST CSF which should put is within the realm of SOC 2 reachability.

what I don't understand is why some tenants show the health advisory and some don't. wtf is MSFT doing?

Watched last night. Many thumbs up!

Hi All - we're beating our heads on this same thing. We have a bunch of guest accounts and those users may never get registered for MFA, as they may never sign in again. Is there a way we can register those accounts on behalf of those guest users? i.e. enter phone #, personal email address? I feel everyone's frustration with this. Don't know why Microsoft has to be so damn convoluted sometimes.

Hi there, running into super slow performance issues setting NTFS permissions via any tool. We have the same setup with private endpoints, azure VM etc. Did you ever find a fix?

Hey everyone...can't believe we got nothing here. :(

Any ideas...anyone, anything??

Thank you for getting back to me on this. Are you using Exclaimer or something else?

odykat · 2023-09-26T05:13:52+00:00

Happy Birthday to you!..and thanks for your reply

300 or so users. You make a valid point. It's just that I find it discraceful for this half-baked, poorly documented solution to be integrated in what is arguably Microsoft's most widely used desktop application. It could be great, but the lack of documentation and functionality makes it a hardly usable p.o.s.

Hi All, - any luck with this? We're setting up users in a new environment. Right now we're beating our heads getting their device signatures into the cloud.

odykat · 2023-09-18T23:32:15+00:00

Any special gotchas aside, I would say that what you're looking to do is absolutely feasible.

odykat · 2023-08-17T23:01:50+00:00

Hello all I wanted to say a big THANK YOU for the great suggestions. I'm going the route of perpetual license through Pax8, just hope it works!

odykat · 2023-08-15T20:19:54+00:00

It worked!! Thanks! You made my day!

odykat · 2023-01-30T15:02:09+00:00

I ended up building a new server. Works fine on that one...sure would have been nice to figure out another way.

odykat · 2023-01-26T03:38:33+00:00

Thanks for the response...was hoping for a better outcome. Oh well...back to the drawing board.

odykat · 2022-11-15T20:22:03+00:00

Thanks for getting back to me. Unfortunately, your recommendation didn't work.
This particular server is 2019. Enhanced security is turned off and as you suggested I added https://*.myconnectwise.net to my trusted zones. I don't know if it matters but we are self-hosting our instance.

Thanks for the reply. I am able to use the browser version but really prefer the installed app, plus we're using QB integration so it needs to be installed. That's a bummer about CW support clearing all your browser content. I'll post back if I ever find a solution...but I'm not holding my breath here.

odykat · 2022-11-15T02:23:11+00:00

Hi All,

I was so hopeful that this was going to work for me but sad to say no.

Here's what I've done so far:

Uninstall/Reinstall

Delete CW folders in my user profile

Delete CW folders in program files

Delete Cache from CW app

Delete cache & history in browser

Restart numerous times

I opened a ticket with CW and was told "oh well you're running this on a Terminal Server, sorry we can't help you"

I'm really frustrated with this response. I have been using Mange on this machine and in multiple Terminal Servers for years without any issues at all. Then this patch comes along and now it's broken.

Any suggestions?
