Anyone else having trouble editing PDFs in Acrobat?

Some users are seeing the editing toolbar disappear or the app hang with a spinning indicator. Is this a wider service issue, and is there a quick workaround?

Try switching off New Acrobat from the View menu, then close and reopen the app. That has restored the editing toolbar for some people and is quicker than reinstalling.

The reports here donโ€™t establish that Adobe is having a wider outage. If the problem is limited to the newer interface, turning it off is a useful test. Check whether other users on the same setup see it before treating it as a service-wide problem.

If switching interfaces and restarting doesnโ€™t help, reinstalling has also resolved the issue for some users. Iโ€™d try the interface toggle first, since it takes less time and is easy to reverse.
