Hi,

maybe this is of use for the one or the other.
in any case LC crashes on Mac to desktop when opening a PDF in the Browser 
Widget and your are getting crazy because of that,  then check if Acrobat 
software is installed on your system.

A few days ago i mentionend in an answer to an other post, that   LC 9.5/9.6 
and also standalones created with that versions, but not LC8, crash to desktop 
when one opens a PDF in the Browser Widget. 

I contacted support, as i was pretty sure that this worked in the past.

As this only happened on my iMac, but not on my Macbook, i decided to 
completely erase the hard disk of my iMac and reinstall the OS and all needed 
LC stuff, because i had to finish some important work and waiting for an answer 
from support or continuing on the Macbook was not an option for me. 

I planned to install the other software one after the other  when i needed it.

All went well and the problem with the PDF in the widget did not happen 
anymore. Today i needed to install Acrobat DC for some tasks.
An hour later or so i received an answer from support and one question from Dev 
team was if by any chance Acrobat software is/was installed on my machine.

I tried again in LC and the crash happened again. After uninstalling Acrobat DC 
the crashes did not happen anymore. 

I reported this back to support.

Of course not using Acrobat DC anymore is no final solution, but for the moment 
it´s a workaround and hopefully the Dev team finds out what exactly is going 
wrong with.

Matthias
