And every single one of them has somehow failed to realize that Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, wasn't kidding, wasn't joking, and WAS God when He said that He would protect His Church and that It would remain until the end of the world. These heresies include (also see the link below for a description of each and the name of the heretics that led them.

What did the Catholic Church do to its doctrines that were being criticized by the protestants?

Well, the Catholic Church itself did not really change its doctorines. The Church is incapable of changing doctrines, as they are revealed by God, and not something made up by people. Some of the people within the Catholic Church were abusing the doctorines and practices around the time of the reformation. For example, some people were buying and selling indulgences, which is condemmed by the Catholic Church. Many Protestant Reformers were unhappy about these types of abuses.
