How open Adobe Reader 9 in second monitor by default?

How can I make Adobe Reader 9.0 open always in my second monitor?
With version 8 it was at least possible to open the first document on the second monitor if I had moved the window in an previous session to that monitor and closed it there. The second and following documents always were opened in the first monitor (annoying!).
What I want is, that ALL documents always open in the second monitor. How can I manage this?

I am also having this issue.
First PDF opens on second monitor. Second one I open will open on main laptop monitor and 3,4,5 etc the same.
Would like it to default full screen on second monitor for all PDF's.

  • Open on second monitor by default

    Hello!
    I'd like to know if it's possible to force Photoshop to open pictures on the second monitor by default.
    Actually, I have 2 monitors, 1 for tools, 1 for fullscreen picture view.
    On the "tools" monitor, toolboxes takes all the screen and pictures opens behind these toolboxes.
    I ALWAYS move pictures fullscreen on the second monitor so I'd like to open them like this by default, but I don't find how...
    (I'm currently on CS3 and trying CS4)
    Thanks !

    Hi
    Same problem here with Ps CS4 :(
    I also dual monitors, one for palettes and one for image viewing.
    The one with the palettes also has the menubar (I'm on a Mac), so programs seem to think it as the main monitor, but for me the absolute free pixel height of the image monitor is paramount.
    This is a step backwards for Photoshop the same thing happened a few versions ago to InDesign.
    Illustrator CS3 is able to open windows to the same location where they were when closed InDy CS3 is not.
    Both of then open new & previously un-opened (ones gotten from an another machine) under the menubar (id est, the wrong monitor for me)
    Photoshop was in the previous versions able to open even the new (blank) documents on the "image" monitor no longer :( :(
    Hope that the programmers will look into this, and include a fix into the updates...

  • All my Adobe Reader (PDF) files are opening only in the secondary monitor by default, as I am workin

    I am using Adobe 8 Professional and working on Windows XP. I have been facing an issue lately with opening files in a dual-monitor environment. All my Adobe Reader (PDF) files are opening only in the secondary monitor by default. There are times when I work only in one monitor and when I open a PDF file and want to have a look at it, I have to connect another monitor to view that file, since this file is open in the secondary monitor. It is very disappointing with such instances happening with Adobe (a leading organization). Can you please help so that the Adobe Reader files open in the primary monitor by default?

    On a Windows system disable the preview of Windows Explorer.

  • How to open Adobe Reader file from another native IOS application?

    There is an existing thread, but I want to re-open it because I think this is an important feature that we need badly.  I was wondering if there is any plan to add this feature so we can open PDFs directly into Adobe from the web / other apps.
    How to open Adobe Reader file from another native IOS application?
    Basically, we just want to use a custom URL scheme to open a specific document in the App.  Currently, this only opens the app but does not load the file.
    APB

    Not to hijack the conversation but I can explain why this would be useful for both the above case and another.
    What I believe Pavel is talking about is setting up a "URL Scheme" for the Adobe Acrobat iOS application so that you can easily open a PDF specifically in Adobe Acrobat iOS from other native applications and even from web applications opened within Safari. This is particularly useful if your application requires some of the specific features in Adobe Reader iOS to grant them the best experience possible and you want to encourage this.
    Another case: If you're using Adobe Livecycle's document security modules (that encrypts PDF files so that Adobe Acrobat must "phone home" to decrypt and view the document), these PDF's can only be viewed inside the Adobe Acrobat application and appear as blank in most other PDF readers. Having a URL scheme allows your application utilising this functionality to have a 1 click step to view the PDF rather than the current non-user friendly process:
    - Within Safari, touch the PDF link (appears as blank in the default Safari PDF reader, which in itself is confusing)
      - Touch "Open in..."
      - Touch "Adobe Acrobat"
    We have an immediate need for this functionality for the example above. I can resubmit it in a separate post if necessary.

    Install it. Open it.
    If you could give us some more detail about what you've done, what you are doing and what exactly happens when you do it I might be able to give a better answer.

  • Help with opening Adobe Reader and downloading updates

    I can not open Adobe .pdf files any longer (this started yesterday, prior to that I could open adobe files).
    When I double click a .pdf file I get this notice on my screen: Windows cannot access the specified device path or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access file.
    So I went to the Adobe download site to download a new copy of Adobe.  When I start the download I get this on the screen:  The instruction at "0x0e3a0068" referenced memory at "0x0e3a0068."  The memory could not be written.  Then two options are listed: click OK to terminate or cancel to debug.  So I click on cancel and I get this on my screen: Internet Explorer has closed this webpage to help protect your computer.   A malfunctioning or malicious addon has caused I.E. to close this webpage.
    I don't have AVG running, I do have avast but I've disabled it.  I ran Registry Mechanic and an I.E. erasure program but nothing helps.
    I have gone into I.E. and reduced the security level to its lowest state but no joy.
    So, any ideas or suggestions on what's the problem and how to overcome it would be appreciated.  Thanks, in advance, for your reply.  Jim R.

    Hi Mike..tried that as well but no joy.  A friend of mine was looking at it all and noticed that it was an I.E. thing as far as not letting me redownload the reader so I went to Mozilla Firefox and I could download a new version but....whenever I attempt to open a .pdf file I get that message, "Windows can not open the specified device, path or file. You man not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." 
    Damn...this is irritating as I need to get to some of thos files as I need them for a Journal I'm working on as editor-in-chief. 
    It all worked just fine last Saturday but starting Monday when I was on my flight out to D.C.  no joy. 
    Sigh...Jim R.

    When I try to open Adobe Reader, it just opens a gray page and then closes by itself. This also applies to any pdf files I try to access; they'd all follow the same pattern: Gray page-->automatically closes after 2 to 3 seconds time. I have tried accessing the Eula.exe via C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, however, the only available button for me to click is the "Decline" button and not the "Accept" license agreement. Please help!

  • Opening Adobe Reader PDF

    Four months ago I wrote that when I tried to open Adobe Reader PDF for any reason, Photoshop Elements 4 took over and Adobe Reader was opened in PE4.
    I was given advice toopen and check in a word document my file association and to "tell" the system to open in Adobe PDF format.  I did that but whenever I open Adobe PDF for any reason (the last occasion was to download my travel insurance from Insure and Go), PE4 opens and Adobe PDF has to be printed from inside that programme.  Nothing has changed.
    I want Adobe Reader PDF to open in its own format, and I want to stop Adobe Reader PDF being opened inside the PE4 programme.  How do I do it?
    I do not want to get rid of PE4 as I use it extensively for photography.  But I want it to stay with photos and stop opening for documents like my travel insurance.  Thank you.  Rod Colyer

  • E65 - Can't open Adobe Reader

    Hello,
    I was able to read pdf files since I got this phone. Unfortunately it has changed (other files like doc can be open with no problem). When I try to open Adobe Reader or any pdf file it crashes.
    I have installed DrJukka's Y-Task and started Crash Monitor. It shows (whatever it means):
    Exit category: USER
    Exit type: Panic
    Exit reason: 11
    I'd be grateful for suggestions what has caused this behavior and what to do to fix it.

    Same thing for me.
    As soon as I pick the icon or any other pdf file it goes to a grey screen (because of my theme) and then just goes back to the page I was on.
    It worked earlie today. My files are on a few kb's so thats not the issue.
    As gaszczakr said any help would be appreciated,
    PS sorry if I got you hopes up for a solution gaszczakr.

    OK, I did this and when I try to open Reader it pops a window up that says; Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access them.
    I am the only one on this PC and I am the admin.

  • Open Images on second monitor by default

    Though there are already quite a few threads on this issue
    (e.g. here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/1648230#1648230; here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/369630?start=60&tstart=0 ; and here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/369928?start=15&tstart=0  );
    the behaviour of Photoshop CS4 to always open images on the main monitor by default still wasn't changed with the 11.0.1-Update.
    So my request is to simply reinvent the old behaviour all PS-Versions from (at least) PS 3.0 to CS3 had:
    open images by default on the monitor THE USER has decided to use as his/her PS-monitor (and not automatically on the System main monitor).

    Has this been fixed on Photoshop CS5?
    I'll be sticking with CS3 until we get back what used to be default...
    (bought CS4 Photoshop upgrade when it came out, went back to using CS3 after a while)

  • Specify author name for annotations when opening Adobe Reader

    Hi !
    I need to specify the author name (for annotations) programatically each time I open Adobe Reader from my application. Is that possible and if yes, how ?
    Here is how I open Adobe Reader in my application :
    try {
      Intent intent = new Intent();
      intent.setClassName("com.adobe.reader", "com.adobe.reader.AdobeReader");
      intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
      intent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(doc), "application/pdf");
      startActivity(intent);
    catch (ActivityNotFoundException activityNotFoundException) {
      activityNotFoundException.printStackTrace();
    If not possible, where does Adobe Reader stores its parameters ? Maybe I can change them before opening it ?
    Thanks in advance for your help !
    Zab

    The application I'm developping needs to be able to allow its users to open existing pdf files and annotate them with the username they've given when logging into the application. Unfortunately, I've not found any satisfying library to edit existing pdf files on Android nor in AIR for Android. I'm thus trying to call Adobe Reader from my application (this I can do) and set the author name for annotations...
    I've found that Adobe Reader stores the author name in /data/data/com.adobe.reader/shared_prefs/com.adobe.reader.preferences.xml
    Knowing that my application will run on rooted Android tabs, do you think it would be posssible to modify this file each time before launching Adobe Reader from my application (could be a dirty workaround but still a workaround) ?

    The problem is not that I can't open PDF. It turns to white screen as soon
    as I open adobe reader, I can do nothing except exit the app.
    I could use adobe reader until I upgrade it to the latest version now.
