bizarre acrobat script problem

I have an applescript to place PDF documents into InDesign pages. We’ve been using it for almost a year with no issues. All the machines in my department are running Mountain Lion except mine which is a new retina iMac and so it runs Yosemite. I tried to run that script this afternoon on my machine (first time I’ve tried on this machine) and once I chose the PDF it was to place, the script stopped. When I opened the script in Script Editor to see if I could figure out the problem, I found that where the script addresses Acrobat:

tell application “Adobe Acrobat Pro”

has been changed to:

tell application “PitStop Pro.acroplugin”

PitStop Pro is an Acrobat plugin that we’ve used for some time. If I change the line in question back to Adobe Acrobat Pro, when I try to compile or run it, it changes back to PitStop Pro.acroplugin.

I’m running Yosemite and I’ve got the latest version of PitStop, version 13 and the others are running version 12. The other machines where the script works are running Mountain Lion and version 12 of PitStop.

Any ideas on the cause or how to resolve this problem?

RJay
