Adobe Reader 9 does not open

Hi I am running windows pro SP3. Installed Adobe Reader 9. Since then no pdf document will open from web or file. I have copied and pasted the error document that is sent electronically to Microsoft. This problem occurs too when trying to open Adobe Reader from the start menu. I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling Version 9 and I get the same problem. Any advice or solutions??? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?> <DATABASE> <EXE NAME="AcroRd32.exe" FILTER="GRABMI_FILTER_PRIVACY"> <MATCHING_FILE NAME="A3DUtility.exe" SIZE="251224" CHECKSUM="0x806255E4" BIN_FILE_VERSION="1.0.0.1" BIN_PRODUCT_VERSION="1.0.0.1" PRODUCT_VERSION="1.0.0.1" FILE_DESCRIPTION="Adobe 3D Utility" COMPANY_NAME="Adobe Systems Inc."

Adobe Reader does not open any PDF when double clicked/hit enter once.

Adobe Reader 11 does not open when I double click/hit enter on a PDF document. I need to hit enter multiple times to open a document once. This ends up creating multiple AcroRd32.exe.
It's very annoying that I need to hit enter multiple times even to open a single PDF file.
This is how my task manager looks, even after closing any opened PDF file.
I've tried re-installing adobe reader multiple times, but same issue recurs again and again.
Please help.
Thanks,
Rahul

It worked. I don't see why the Protected Mode is enabled in the first place, if it were to cause issues.
Anyways, thanks Sabian,

Adobe Reader does not open weblinks in document.

We have several PDF brohures for our marketing material and all of them have weblinks added to the documents.
When I click on these links in Adobe Reader, it does not respond and does not recognise it as a weblink. However, opening the same document in other reader programs, it opens the weblink immediately with no problems.
Could this be a flaw in the software or not? Most of my clients have Adobe Reader to view their PDF's and they complain that they can not open the weblinks.
Please assist with this issue.
Thank you
Saffa1113

Are these links (example: http://www.mysite.com) or are they hyperlinks?
If the links are spelled out, the could have "Create links from URLs" unchecked in Preferences>General>Basic tools.
If they are hyperlinks, how were they created? How was the PDF (and by what application) created?

Adobe reader does not open usage right enabled files in Ubntu 8.0.4

I have a series of pdf files with the usage right enabled in adobe acrobat.
When I try to open them in linux Ubuntu 8.0.4 the adobe windows flashes for a second and the disappears. I tried to run the command in a terminal but it doesn't give me any error or warning message. I am just wondering if any one else has been able to resolve this issue.

Thanks Farshid for sending the file.
We have tried using the file you sent on multiple linux distributions with Linux Reader 8.1.2 but we're not able to replicate the issue you're facing. We've tried on Ubuntu 8.04 as well and haven't seen any issues.
Could you share more information, includign the version of the reader youre' trying to use (you can see that at Help > About Adobe Reader).
Thanks,
Gaurav

Adobe Reader does not open any PDF when double clicked

I am using a Mac with Yosemite. When I double click a PDF to open it, it will not open. The only way it will open is right clik PDF/Open With/Applications/Adobe Reader app. or right click PDF/Quick Look. Thanks funnnyfarm

It worked. I don't see why the Protected Mode is enabled in the first place, if it were to cause issues.

Adobe Reader does not open a link

I cannot open a pdf link. It asks for End User Agreement, even though I have signed it

What is your operating system? Reader version?
Is that original document local or online? If online, in what browser?
And that link points to where: a local or online PDF?
Can you actually open Adobe Reader by itself?

Adobe reader does not open Elements 9 does

I don't know what happens but the last few days When I try to open a PDF, Photoshop elements opens instead. I have installed the latest versions of both Elements and Adobe but it continues to open Elements. I don't know where to look.
Any suggestions?

Make sure you have the latest Adobe Reader installed for your OS.

Did you try using Preview. If you control click on the PDF on your desktop you can use the "open with" option.

When I long hold a doc open with adobe reader does not appear

When I long tap on a doc to open ; open with adobe reader does not appear

Which app did you start with? Apple Mail, Safari, iBooks or something else?
Is a PDF document already open in other app? If so, you can tap the PDF document to display a toolbar in the app. Do you see the icon like this in the toolbar?
You can tap the icon to open a popup then tap "Open in..." or "Open in Adobe Reader". You may need to scroll to the right to find the red icon with "Open in Adobe Reader".
In Safari, tap "Open in..." (blue text) in the top toolbar, instead.
If you see something else on the screen, please let us know the name of the app.

Adobe Reader does not fully open

Adobe Reader does not fully open - it starts and then disappears - windows 7 - nothing is new

Yes, nothing is new...
Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
Can you open Adobe Reader by itself? If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
If you cannot open Reader by itself, try to disable Protected Mode in the registry; download, unzip, then run the registry script from https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=8yDBdUZCTE9FUcJJjZzHvQ
It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

Adobe Reader will not open PDF in browser simple answer.

I just had this problem and was able to work through it with the help of tech support from TD Ameritrade. The fix is simple so read on. After uninstalling and reinstalling all things adobe and trying other recommendations on these forums I was stumped. I called my broker tech section since I couldn't open their reports and we identified what my specific problem was. For me, and I imagine some of you this will help and prevent a lot of wasted time.
Nothing was wrong with my Adobe Reader. My problem was that I have a 64 bit operating system and both of my default browsers were 64 bit browsers. I did not know my internet explorer default browser was the 64 bit one until the technician that assisted me informed me that a recent windows update made all 64 bit systems default to 64 bit internet explorer browsers. You cannot change that default by choosing between 64 bit and 32 bit, because you can only choose internet explorer. That explains why my attempts to open with a 32 bit browsers always failed. I also tried with Firefox thinking it was 32 bit and it failed as well. The technician informed me Firefox is a 64 bit browser and then it made sense. I guess the recent Adobe reader update caused a change that no longer allowed my 64 bit system and 64 bit browser to open PDF's through the browser. The technician who assisted me has a 64 bit system and only uses 64 bit browsers and can still open PDF's through those browsers. That confused us for a while until we realized he had his Adobe updater turned off and therefore had not been exposed yet to the update that originated my problems.
****ANSWER FOR MY PROBLEM*******The quick answer is use Google Chrome or some other 32 bit browser. If you set a 32 bit browser as your default, the PDF's will open. You cannot set Internet Explorer 32 bit browser as your default if you have a 64 bit system and also have 64 bit Internet Explorer. The windows update prevents you from doing it. At least that is my understanding.
The bottom line is I have the newest Adobe Reader on a 64 bit system and can open any web PDF with Google Chrome set as my default browser, because it is a 32 bit browser. The new Adobe Reader will not open PDF's with a 64 bit browser in Vista. A 64 bit system is fine as long as you use the 32 bit browser to open your PDF's in Vista. I hope this helps some avoid some headaches. I wish it had been posted when my problem first arose.
I think you can use a 64 bit browser in Windows 9 or later, but for Vista the above applies.

Yes I can create a short cut to internet exp. 32 bit on my desktop and I can even be using Internet expl. 32 bit, but when I try to open a PDF with adobe reader it won't work with internet exp. as my default browser b/c windows will always choose Internet exp. 64 bit which isn't supported yet by adobe reader. With google chrome as my default browser windows can't choose an unsupported 64 bit browser in its place b/c google chrome doesn't have a 64 bit version.
My post was for those people who may not have realized yet that windows would not ever choose Internet expl. 32 bit over Internet expl. 64 bit if both exist on their system. For them it is easiest to just choose a default browser that only has a 32 bit version.
If I understood your reply correctly, you were telling me how to create a shortcut to Internet exp. 32 bit on my desk top. However, having that shortcut on my desk top and opening my browser through it will not prevent the problem of windows choosing my Internet exp. 64 bit browser for pdf's I try to open from the web. Thank you for your response, but I think the problem that I have tried to explain does exist for many users and can only be fixed by using a 32 bit browser that is not Internet explorer as your default browser. At some point if windows fixes the update that always chooses Internet expl. 64 bit over Internet expl. 32 bit, then this will all be irrelevant.

Adobe Reader does not recognize file name (filename10.5.11.pdf) but does in Adobe Standard 9. Why?

I post documents to our Intranet site and found out recently that Adobe Reader does not recognize certain file names in PDF files. For instance, when trying to open a PDF file with the name
filename10.5.11.pdf in Adobe Reader, the web browser will not open the PDF and the display is blank. When I'm using another computer with Adobe Standard 9, I do not have a problem opening the file.
I would like to know if anyone else has had a similar issue and why Reader will not recognize the file name and Standard does.

The version is Adobe Reader 10.1.0 I will request the latest version
and let you know if that fixes the problem
Actually I had changed the name of the file so our associates could access
the file (changed the . to a hyphen) It still made me wonder why Reader
wouldn't open it at that time.
Thanks again for you assistance and I will let you know if this resolves
the issue.
Regards,
Susan

Hi Susan,
Thanks for providing the information.
Could you also let me know what is the exact version of Adobe Reader on
your system. You can check the same y clicking on Help > About Adobe
Reader X.
In case its not 10.1.1, please try updating to the latest version and see
if the problem persists.
Also, does any other PDF with a different filename open in Internet
Explorer correctly?
Thanks
Ankit

Adobe Reader Does Not Respond in Windows 8

I need to do a simple edit of a pdf. I've been editing pdfs using nothing but the free Adobe reader for years. Now I got a new laptop - 64 bit Windows 8 and I installed the current reader. I need the Adobe reader for other programs I work with. I have noticed that the adobe reader is slow to open and constantly says "not responding." I also cannot get it to respond so that I can fill in a form (i.e., a basic edit), which I could always do. Please tell me how to fix this!

I figured it out! I have Adobe Reader XI on my desktop. I opened it up. I went to Edit/Preferences/Security (Enhanced) and disabled the "Protected Mode at startup." My Adobe pdfs now respond and I can edit them without issue.

Adobe Reader does not appear as a choice when I click on a PDF in email

When I open an email that has a PDF, then I click on the "Open With", Adobe Reader does not appear as a choice. I use an IPhone 4S.

Is your phone updated to iOS6?
When I press on the PDF icon at the bottom of an email message on the iPhone, I get a screen which shows "Open in Adobe Reader" along with icons of other readers I have installed which read PDF files.
Looks like this:

Why will my Adobe Reader 9 not open the downloaded CA6 Beta file?

Why will my Adobe Reader 9 not open the downloaded CS6 Beta file?

Hi,
If your asking about the photoshopcs6_p1_installnotes.pdf, then it should open with Adobe Reader 9. It does for me with Adobe Reader 9 (9.5.0) on OSX 10.5.8.
The PDF is saved to version 1.4.

Adobe Reader could not open 'Lightroom_4_LS11_mac_4_1-2.dmg

I have tried to download Lightroom 4.1 on three different occasions and after it have downloaded completely, I get the error message "Adobe Reader could not open 'Lightroom_4_LS11_mac_4_1-2.dmg' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."
I have the latest Lion OS on my iMac as well as an updated Adobe Reader.
Is it possible to buy a CD that has the upgraded files? (Yes, I have a registered 4.0 Lightroom on my computer).
Someone had suggested I contact Sales Support for information. How does one get sales support - the only thing I see is sales.
Thank you.

Highlight the 'Lightroom_4_LS11_mac_4_1-2.dmg' and perform a "Get Info...". Then set "Open with:" to DiskImageMounter.
