When I install Adobe Reader, all the icons in the start bar change to PDF icons.

All icons in my quick launch bar and desktop  turn to PDF icons.  My operating system is Windows 7.  How can I fix this?

  • I created a PDF of my book in Preview and encrypted it. When opened in Adobe Reader, it is rotated to the vertical position rather than the original landscape position. How do I fix this in Preview? I don't want my buyers to have to hassle with rotating.

    I created a PDF of my book in Preview and encrypted it. When opened in Adobe Reader, it is rotated to the vertical position rather than the original landscape position. How do I fix this in Preview? I don’t want to hassle my buyers with rotating. There was no option in Preview to account for this automatic and unwanted rotation.

    Then you rotate it and SAVE or SAVE AS and it will remain that way.

  • Acrobat 6.0.6 Pro already installed:  What happens when I install Adobe Reader 9.1

    Hello:
    I have Adobe Acrobat 6.0.6 Professional edition already installed.
    I'd like to upgrade to Adobe  Reader  9.1,  by downloading and installing from here
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/
    Question:
    Will the Adobe Acrobat Pro  6.06 be automatically uninstalled  during the installation of the 9.1 reader?
    If so, how would I get it back again if I should want to at a later time?
    Can Adobe Acrobat Professional Edition 6.0 coexist somehow with Adobe Reader 9.1?
    Thanks in advance:

    Hi Mandy. Have you tried starting a thread in these forums to work on your issue? I can assure you that your experience isn't the same experience that everyone else has. Also sounds like you are strictly dealing with Reader whcih isn't the same as what's happening in this thread.
    Start a new thread and give as much detail as you can.

  • Can I install adobe reader on 2 computers for the same online price?

    Please help

    If it's Acrobat then technically, yes. But they should be for your use (such as your main workstation and a laptop or other portable) and not someone else.

    I have installed adobe reader onto my Mac but when I open up an adobe pdf it tells me that i need to accept the end user license agreement, quite, and then open up a new browser but i have never seen the end user license agreement. What should I do in order to accept the end user license agreement even though it never pops up when i install adobe reader?

    Make sure Readr is closed. Go to the Applications form, look for the Adobe Reader icon, double click on it, and follow the lead. Restart Reader when finished.

  • Cannot install Adobe Reader 9

    Hello,
    I have problem to install Adobe 9 on two Terminal Server.
    Windows 2003 French R2 SP2 with Office 2003 and all Microsoft Updates.
    Previous version of Adobe Reader was 8.1.3.
    When I install Adobe Reader 9, I have this error message (translated from french):
    "Program have not enough rights to access folder: c:\document and settings\all users\application data\adobe\acrobat\9.0. Impossible to install.
    Open an administrator session or contact your system administrator."
    Of course I'm Domain Admin. And I have access to the folder.
    I have try to manually create the folder 9.0 in c:\document and settings\all users\application data\adobe\acrobat\ and it gives me the error:
    "Error when creating the folder "c:\document and settings\all users\application data\adobe\acrobat\".
    I test with an other admin account, and with the "run as" command, same problem.
    I have test Adobe Reader 9 in english: same error:
    "Error 1303. This instsaller has insufficient privileges to access this directory: c:\document and settings\all users\application data\adobe\acrobat\9.0. The installation cannot continue.
    Log on as an administrator or contact your System administrator."
    It's very strange because now, I cannot reinstall Adobe Reader 8.1.3, or 7.1.0. Nothing happen when I click on the icon.
    I never have trouble on those servers to install/uninstall applications. And never have trouble to install Adobe 9.
    Any idea? I will make some searches about the #1303 error.
    Thanks

    I have try this solution for the same error for other Adobe products:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb405850
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=332541
    Ok, it works.
    I have to apply full rights on folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\application data\adobe for the local admin group, and not the domain admin, and it works. :)
    Thanks

  • Error 2203 installing Adobe Reader. How do I fix?

    Error 2203.Database: C:\Windows\Installer\61cd5.ipi. Cannot open database file. System error -2147287035.
    I am running Windows 7 and continue to get this error when attempting to install Adobe Reader. I have run the CleanUp tool and removed all previous versions of Reader but still get this error. Any help would be appreciated.

    Try if this installer works better: http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/11.x/11.0.00/en_US/AdbeRdr11000_en_US.msi
    If it does, update to 11.0.5 afterwards.

  • Form is filled on iPad then emailed.  If form is opened with Adobe Reader all text is visible, but if opened with Acrobat XI no text is visible.

    Form filled on ipad.  When opened with Adobe Reader all text is visible, but if opened with Acrobat XI no text is visible- form is blank.   Have been using this system for months with  no problems.

    That suggestion makes sense and likely works, but only if the user is on a machine that will allow them to use Reader. I'm sending this out to a lot of teachers, who are using machines either at school, or are school-issued machines, and they don't have the admin privileges to install software-- even Reader.
    so my problem is, if they are stuck on a machine without Reader, and without the possibility of having Reader... it's just not going to work because Preview can't handle these functions.
    And, since that is not an acceptable answer with what I'm trying to do... I will find another way to create/submit forms. I think there are some online possibilities I will have to make work.
    very, very disappointing and frustrating.

  • Installing adobe reader

    I was trying to download the most updated version of adobe. It said it downloaded successfully. Then when I tried to open it it said that it did not download successfully. I called a  friend and he told me to uninstall adobe so I uninstalled all the adobe files in my programs and now when I try to download adobe reader a box comes up that is titled     UI_ReaderInstaller and inside the box it says  "Only a single instance of this application can run".  What do I need to do to download adobe

    I have the same problem: attempt to install Adobe Reader 10.1.0 produces the error:
    UI_ReaderInstaller
    "Only a single instance of this application can run".
    There was no other version running, as verified by the process view of Windows Task Manager.
    I had ver. 9.4.5, attempting to install/upgrade to 10.1.0 failed. I then removed 9.4.5 with Windows Add/Remove Programs, but install of 10.1.0 still failed.
    I then tried the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility, but it didn't show any version of Adobe Reader to uninstall.
    Since 9.4.5 broke search highlighting, a solution is upgrading to ver. 10. However this isn't possible on some systems due to this install bug.

  • Installing Adobe Reader XI

    I am trying to install Adobe Reader XI.  I get the message "Unable to load this application?" How do I rectify this?

    Thank you for that. Now I have it installed, but when I go to print an Adobe pdf file, it tells me "The document could not be printed."  I have never had any problems running any Adobe product, but ever since an automatic Windows update (OS is Windows 7) about a week ago, this has been an issue as well as problems with other software I have.

  • Unable to install Adobe Reader 8

    Been trying for the last few hours to install Adobe Reader 8 but it does not work. I get the installer downloaded but then when I open it it says "Adobe Reader could not install correctly". It's driving me nuts..
    Pls help....
    JCBang, Geneva

    I don't think I have ever had so much difficulty and had to jump through so many hoops when installing an app than I did when I installed Adobe Reader 8. And when I did install it, it broke Safari's online displaying of PDF's. Even when I uninstalled Reader, Safari was still broken. It took me quite a bit of searching and asking around to get that fixed.
    So unless you have some compelling reason to use Reader over Apple's built-in Preview program, I would avoid Reader 8 like the plague.
    Sorry if that was not the answer you were looking for!
