You may resolve this error by downloading a new .plist file for Adobe using the link above. Close all Adobe PDF programs and any PDFs that are open. 


Replace the old .plist file in /Library/Preferences with the new .plist file from the link above. 


Test to see if you are able to open PDF file again. No restart needed.
