  • I can't install Adobe Flash -installation keeps failing

    I run Windows Vista, and have been using Firefox as my browser (current version). In May some time Flash stopped working on Firefox. It works fine on IE8. I have uninstalled Flash and reinstalled it - successful on IE, and uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it, then tried to install the Flash plugin, all to no avail. When I try to install it manually nothing happens. Is something changed on a security setting that is preventing this? My cookies/pop-ups allow adobe.com on Firefox.
    Any help would really be appreciated.

    Thanks for your reply. I am the admin account in Vista. I always log in as admin. Is there a setting within admin preventing me from loading the plugin? If so, I have been able to load other plugins without a problem.
    I can't install the plugin with Firefox closed. It tries to load on the browser. For example, I get the message that a plugin needs to be installed from the top of my browser window, I click on it, it takes me to the Adobe license page, I accept, and it takes me to a window where the plugin is being loaded. Then a window comes up that says "Completing the Plug-in Finder Service" which says "No Plug-ins were installed, Adobe Flash Player 10.3.181, Failed" I get the Manual Install button, but when use that to go to the Adobe page, and try to install manually, nothing happens - no acceptance of license, nothing.
    I have another computer - newer - with Windows 7 - and Flash loaded and runs fine on my Firefox browser on it.
    Any other ideas?

  • How do i stop photoshop cs4 from quitting unexpectedly when saving a photoshop pdf? i attempted to download the adobe drive 5 but the installation keeps failing.

    How do i stop photoshop cs4 from quitting unexpectedly when saving a photoshop pdf? i attempted to download the adobe drive 5 but the installation keeps failing. I went through the process of clicking through the how to's and the troubleshooting and came to the conclusion that I need to install the adobe drive 5 but I can not complete the installation. I may be incorrect on this so I need immediate assistance as I have poster and ad deadlines. I also tried disabling the gatekeeper and solution 3 on the troubleshooting of slow saving on photoshop.
    Any help is much appreciated!
    Thank you!

    Are you attempting to save the file to a network location instead of your local hard drive? If so, this is probably why you are encountering an issue and why Adobe Drive would be the solution. As we've documented, it is a bad idea to open from or save directly to a network source: Networks, removable media | Photoshop | CS4 and later. Drive can help you get around this by setting up an Adobe supported virtual connection to the network. Thus, if installing Adobe Drive is the solution you need and your need help with installing Drive, please post to the Downloading, Installing, Setting Up forum.
    If you are not saving to a network location, then Adobe Drive is not going to be the answer. Then we'll need to know more about the file you are saving.

  • Adobe Reader Search function fails

    @@I'm using Adobe Reader Version 11.0.10 under Windows 7 64-Bit SP1 with all actual updates. When i try to search any word or Phrase of contained in the text of a specific PDF File, then the search Fails. It does not come up with the search item i have keyed in. I did not misspell the search item and it is definitely contained in the text, but the search function does not find it. i am absolutely surethat the search item is in text Format and it is contained in the PDF file, because i can Access and search it when i open this PDF file on an iPad for instance. there it works, but not in my Windows envioenment.
    I guess that this problem will not be completely new for you, because other users are discussing this Problem in the Internet as well.
    Can you help me with an answer and hopefully with a recommendation on how to overcome this Problem.
    thanks in advance and
    Kind regards
    Guenther
    p.s.:
    sorry, i am new on thjis platform... how  when aproximatrely does one get an answer here?

    Hello Pat,
    i followed your advise and have used the link contained in point 3 of
    your recommendations --- for reference see your response as appended
    below (https://cloud.acrobat.com/).
    So, in case i made no mistake (?), then you can access the PDF file we
    are talking about when you follow this link here:
    https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/0f9d2ce4-b4b9-4223-8fd2-723441d7d2ab***
    This PDF file contains a description of an olympus camera. When you open
    this PDF file please go to page 6.
    Directly under the picture on top of the page (which shows a dark blue
    car driving from left to right) you can read the word "Mitziehmodus"
    (without parantheses). This german word is one of those search items
    which the PDF search function of my PDF reader installation does not
    find. There are many other words the search function does not find as
    well, but let us use this word (Mitziehmodus) as an example to
    demonstrate the malfunction as i experience it on my pc.
    Meanwhile i have installed a completely new windows-system 7 from
    scratch. The PDF reader (11.0.10) is currently the only installed
    software. I made this windows 7 installation only to assure that there
    is no other software eventually influencing the search function. But the
    search function fails again when searching for this word "Mitziehmodus".
    One remark still to your statements concerning accented characters.
    Character like ä, ö, ü or ß are quite normal characters in writing
    german language text. But these characters can not be found also! In
    general it does not make much sense to serach for a single character (at
    least in my understanding). Searching for ä or ö or ü results in finding
    something completely meaningless. But this behaviour shows additionally
    that there is something wrong with the search function as it ist
    implemented in Adobe Reader.
    In general i am convinced that this PDF file will be correct ,
    because i can search any search item and find correct search results
    when i access this file on my iPad regardless in what so ever combination.
    i hope that you can access the problem PDF file following the link i
    sent you above.
    And i would be happy wehen you could find thze reason for my search
    problems.
    thank you so far. i appreciate to heare from you soon.
    kind regards
    Günther

  • Lightroom 5 installation keeps failing

    Lightroom 5 installation keeps failing.
    Solution mentioned here doesn't work, because my default installation language is English. The installation process stops and shows there's an error but doesn't actually show the error message. The system language on my laptop is Russian.
    I had a trial installed previously and now need to activate it with my Creative Cloud membership but it's been about two weeks since I purchased it and it still doesn't work!

    Hi,
    I’m sorry to hear that! Not sure why it worked for me but not for you. I’d like to check the steps you made just to make sure…
    What OS or you using?
    I removed Lightroom from Creative Cloud. – So there is no error showing.
    I downloaded the: Lightroom_5_LS11_win_5_2 from the link.
    Unpacked it to the desktop (any folder will do).
    Then I navigated to the folder and installed Lightroom_5_LS11_win_5_2.
    Re opened CC and clicked install. It then install the 5.3 update.
    If you followed all these steps and still have no luck then A, let me know. And B, you may have to wait for Adobe to fix the issue.
    I’ll troll the internet for you too.
    There are still more things we can try, so don't give up!
    I love Lightroom and feel your pain!
    Thanks,
    Mike

  • Why does my Adobe Reader installation time out?

    Why does my Adobe Reader installation time out at 64 percent on Windows XP?
    I am currently running version 9.5.2.
    Does anyone have a solution please.

    Hi,
    This "timeout at 64%" issue has been reported more than a few times  here.
    You can try direct download from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    If you can dedicate some time and help to investigate the issue, here is what I would ask:
    Before trying the link I have provided, can you please enable verbose MSI logging and try to install Reader the way you did originally - I assume that you used Adobe.com, right?
    If it fails again at 64%, please find the latest MSIxxxxx.log file in the Temp folder and send it to me.
    To enable Windows Installer logging
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/223300
    ...open the registry with Regedit.exe and create the following path and keys: 
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer
    Reg_SZ: Logging
    Value: voicewarmupx
    The Temp folder on Windows XP is
    C:\Documents and Settings\[YourUserName]\Local Settings\Temp

  • Adobe Reader Installer does not work

    I am trying to install Adobe reader on Windows 8. I downloaded Adobe Reader the Clicked the downloaded file and gave the permission.

  • Adobe Reader Installation repeats

    I am trying to print an easyjet boarding pass.
    When I click on 'check in all passengers' I get an Adobe page telling me to install Adobe Reader which I do.
    Then I repeat the process and Adobe Reader installation Step 1 appears again.
    If I install Adobe Reader once again it tells me that it is already installed.
    So I am going round in circles and am unable to print my boarding pass.
    I had the same problem when I tried in the UK in July. After 2 days it fortunately cleared.
    Can you help me please?
    Many thanks

    My apologies, I explained very badly.
    I get to the easy jet booking page for checking in
    Now if I click on Check in all passengers up comes the Adobe Reader “Install Now” page.
    (If I click on “go here” I also get the Adobe Reader installation page again).
    If I try to install A.R. again, it tells me that it is already installed.
    And the I have to start with easyjet Check in all passengers all over again and the same performance is repeated!
    I cannot get the pass out at all.
    Printing - if I ever get something to print - will be no problem but I cannot get to that stage.
    Thanks again for all your trouble.

    So you can get the pass to open then but now it's just printing that causes this?
    Can you save the pdf to your desktop (or somewhere you can find it) and open it within Reader itself rather than from within the browsers plug-in? If so, can you now print?
