Can not "see" Adobe Acrobat Reader DC in Google Chrome Plugins?  Find in IE.

Downloaded new version of Reader twice and still can not see it in Google Chrome plugsin. Windows 7 with latest version of Google Chrome?
Suggestions?

Hi C N,
Going forward, the Adobe Reader plugin will not be supported in Chrome.  The Chromium team has decided to remove support for NPAPI plugins like Adobe Reader. Here's a blog post that describes their decision - http://blog.chromium.org/2014/11/the-final-countdown-for-npapi.html
On Windows, it is still possible to change the Chrome default PDF viewing behavior by configuring plugins (chrome://plugins).  When doing that Adobe Acrobat Reader DC is showing as an out of date version.  Enabling that configuration in current versions of Chrome will allow PDF files to open in the Adobe plugin, but that is not a supported configuration.
On Mac, that configuration is not supported.  When doing that a message is shown that the EULA needs to be accepted before viewing, even if that is no longer required.
To view PDF files in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, we recommend that you download the file in Chrome and open it from your desktop.
Regards,
Rave

  • Can not open Adobe Acrobat reader, when downloading a document...?

    I downloaded Adobe Acrobat Reader "successfully,"  yet when I try and download a file, the pop up says would you like to download Adobe reader??

  • Can't download Adobe Acrobat Reader

    I'm using Vista.
    I used to have Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.2.1 but accidentally deleted 1 of the 3 files on the Uninstall Program. I was still able to open a pdf at that time.
    I've decided to upgrade it but it wasn't completed, it's looking for the installation package, AdbeRdr812_en_US.msi.
    We've tried the System Restore, not successful.. I'm not able to open any pdf at that time anymore.
    Tried to unistall the program, it was still not successful.
    I was able to uninstall the program using Advance System Care.
    Now, I'm trying to install Adobe Acrobat Reader 9, got an error: 1606. Tried to use MS Fixit, still got the same error...
    What happened? Will i still be able to download it?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for helping me. Although I cannot download the 9.3 version, I can now view a pdf file although i really have to save the link first.
    I've entered "Windows Installer Cleanup Utility"  on google chrome & I was able to download a software: RegCure.
    I really don't know what happened next, but after that I'm in the process of installing Adobe Reader 8.0 then had a shortcut on desktop.
    Tried to open a pdf file by opening the application & it was successful.
    Tried to view a pdf file online but it's prompting me to install version 9.3, where I'm getting the error :%APPDATA%\Adobe\Acrobat\PREFER~1.
    I think this is better rather than unable to open a pdf before. I'll not insist in upgrading it anymore.. Thank you very much and thanks for your patience. =)

  • Can´t deactivate Adobe Acrobat Reader 8 Professional

    Hello,
    my issue is that i have one orginal Adobe Acrobat Reader 8 Professional.
    I installed it on my Computer, but i want to activate it on a different Computer. So i want to return the e-license Choosing Help>Licensing>return E-License.
    But i cant push the button. (the letters on the Button are gray)

    Hans,
    The fact that the Return e-license menu option is disabled (while the product still works normally), means that you are running a version of the product with a volume license serial number. Adobe discontinued the e-license program on March of 2007 so the software no longer requires an e-license to operate.
    Simply uninstall Acrobat 8 Professional from the computer you no longer need, and install it on the new machine using the same serial number (you had used on the first machine).
    That should be all.

  • How can I uninstall adobe acrobat reader 10?

    I just installed this program because I thought it was better than Preview! But it's ugly and slow and it takes more than 500MB of space! How can I remove it completely? I can't find the uninstaller! F@#k Adobe!

    Hi John,
    I used File Buddy to search for "reader" on my main drive. This is everything it returned that relates to the Acrobat Reader X:
    /Applications/Adobe Reader.app
    /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Help/en_US/Adobe Reader
    /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat/com.adobe.Reader
    /Users/retoucher/Library/Caches/com.adobe.Reader
    /Users/retoucher/Library/Caches/com.adobe.Reader.ARM
    /Users/retoucher/Library/Application Support/Expression Media/Plug-ins/Helper Applications/Adobe Reader
    /Users/retoucher/Library/Receipts/com.adobe.Reader
    /Users/retoucher/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.Reader_x86_9.0.plist
    /Users/retoucher/Library/Logs/Adobe/Adobe Reader Updater.log
    /Users/retoucher/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.Reader.plist
    /private/var/root/Library (from old Mac)/Receipts/com.adobe.Reader
    The only one that isn't readily accessible is the .plist file in the /private/var/... folder. But it's only 29Kb.
    For the most part, Mac apps don't spread themselves as pervasively as they do in Windows. Larger apps like Photoshop (or the Adobe suites), Final Cut Studio, Quark, etc., tend to drop more stuff around the drive in the System or main Library folders. But for smaller apps, they tend to be the main app, a few things in the Application Support folders, and a preference file (or a few of them).

    I keep getting that message when I try to open a PDF link from a webpage. When I open the Windows Task Manager under the Applications tab I do not see Adobe Acrobat/Reader listed at all.
    How do I fix this problem?

    I may as well answer my own question.
    After typing "patch" and reading a few threads I found out how to fix it.

  • Adobe Acrobat Reader Not Installed.

    Trying to open link to pdf file from IE8 using Windows 7 64bit and pdf file will not open "adobe acrobat reader not installed".  Yet I can open PDF files outside of IE8.  Adobe Reader X is installed.  Have tried remvoving, reinstalling, running app as admin.  Have tried different version of Adobe Reader and same error.  This same link works fine when opened with Google Chrome.  Any suggestions?

    Thanks for posting the image.
    Could you please confirm if you receive this error while opening any PDF? Could you try opening: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/837/cpsid_83708/attachments/Acrobat_Reader_ReleaseNote_10.1.1.pdf

  • Adobe X vs Adobe Acrobat Reader

    I am trying to review some on line documents. The requirement is to have Adobe Acrobat Reader. My desktop shows I have Adobe X. It is also listing in my programs but does not show installed in my area of install/uninstall. Can you kindly advise if Adobe X is adequate or do I need to download something more. I am using a PC with Vista. Thank you.

    There is no such thing as Adobe X. There is an Adobe Acrobat, and an Adobe Reader (not an Adobe Acrobat Reader). Which of the two are you talking about?

  • Removing Adobe Acrobat reader 5.0, and installing newer 7.0.9 version

    My IMAC with Panther 10.3.9 has Acrobat reader 5.0. This appears in Finder>Applications>Adobe Acrobat reader 5.0 folder. I find that the lastest version of the reader for my system is 7.0.9, per Adobe's website in the reader download section. I downloaded version 7.0.9, which appeared to have occurred without problems. When I went back to Applications>Adobe Acrobat reader 5.0 folder, the folder still indicated 5.0, not 7.0.9. Not convinced 7.0.9 was actually implemented, I moved the Adobe Acrobat 5.0 folder from Applications to Trash. And yes I emptied the trash. I then downloaded 7.0.9 from Adobe's website again. The download again appeared to have occurred correctly. There is no sign of Adobe Acrobat reader 7.0.9 in Applications, nor is the 5.0 folder there since I put it in trash. Why did I want to upgrade the reader version in the first place? Some PDF files that I tried to download wouldn't. This is the first time that I have encountered PDF files that would not download in readable format. The PDF help section of the website indicated I needed the lastest version of Acrobat reader to successfully download the PDF files. Since I did have an older version, the version upgrade was attempted. Where do I go from here?
    IMAC G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)

    Hello AC,
    You were very close to being completely correct. The downloadreader.pkg opened by itself, but what I did not do after that was double click an icon that said Acrobat reader installer. Once I did double click that icon, additional installation activities occurred, and sure enough, Adobe Acrobat reader 7.0.9 now appears in Applications. Thanks.

  • Chrome - Adobe-Acrobat/Reader can not be used to view PDF files in a web browser.

    I can't view PDF files via Chrome (it works on Internet Explorer but I prefer Chrome)  -  the error below has arisen recently on Chrome, though I can't see what has changed.
    "Acrobat plug-in
    The Adobe-Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a web browser. Please exit  Adobe Acrobat/Reader and exit your Web Browser and try again."
    I have looked through Forum articles on similar errors and have tried the following(text copied from other Forum entries)
    Repair Adobe Acrobat (from Acrobat)
    Repair Adobe Acrobat (from Control Panel
    Configure Acrobat  as a helper application: Choose Edit > Preferences., Select Internet on the left., Deselect Display PDF In Browser Using [Acrobat application], and then click OK.Quit Acrobat or Reader
    Create a registry item for Acrobat: with Regedit: If the registry item doesn't exist on the system, do the following: Go to Edit > New > Key and create the missing HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe.Go to Edit > New > String Value and name this key (Default).Select (Default), and then go to Edit > Modify. Type the Adobe Acrobat path in the "Value data" for your product.,restart your computer
    Repair the HKCR\AcroExch.Document registry key: Navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AcroExch.Document., Right-click AcroExch.Document and select Delete; make sure that you have the correct key, and click Yes on any prompts, Right-click AcroExch.Document.7 and select Delete; make sure that you have the correct key, and click Yes on any prompts. Repair your Acrobat  installation
    None has solved the problem. However it still works ok with IE. But I want to stick with Chrome because I find IE is so slow!
    I am using Vista, with Adobe Acrobat standard 9.5.2 and Google Chrome version 23.0.1271.64 m which is marked on Chrome as 'up to date'
    Does anyone know why I might be getting this error on Chrome but not IE?

    I think I have discovered the answer to my own question!
    I have disabled Adobe Reader plug-in, and can now see PDFs in Chrome.
    (Steps: Chrome Menu, Settings option, Click Advanced Settings link, then Content Settings button, then select Disable Individual Plug-Ins, and a list of plug-ins is offered to enable or disable).
    I then get a different result depending on whether or not Chrome PDF viewer is enabled - with it enabled I see the PDF document in Chrome, or with it disabled then the option is offered to download it, but either way I can get it it via Chrome without having to run Internet explorer in another browser window.
