Hello everybody,
I've just changed to Windows 7 and I have a few problems using my browsers.
So, when I want to open a pdf from a webside I get the message, that Adobe Reader could not open the document in the browser window.
After closing this message, the pdf is opend in the browser window.
Any ideas for this?
I've used the same configuration on Win XP Pro without these problems.
Best Regards
Thomas

  • Acrobat 8 Professional and Windows Server 2003 R2 Issue

    Hi
    Our customers using Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional on Windows server 2003 R2 SP2. It works some period of time but then application stops working with this error and cannot start anymore:
    Faulting application Acrobat.exe, version 8.1.0.137, faulting module Checkers.api, version 8.1.0.137, fault address 0x000021a2.
    What can be the problem? There is nothing in the knowledgebase.

    Hello jordixip,
    You can connect your Mac to Terminal Services using Remote Desktop Connection Client . You need a license, the client software, and turning on the appropriate bits on the server. It is in Micro$oft-ese, but the overview is here.
    Good Luck!

  • Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional w/ Windows 8.1

    Previously I had Windows Vista Home Basic and everything ran smoothly with Acrobat.  One thing that I loved was if I ran out of ink or could not print for some other reason, I had Adobe in the list of printers.  Well Adobe is not showing up in the list of printers nor can I get it to show up there by trying several different things.  My Adobe product is Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional and my Windows system is now Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit (though I’m starting to regret this).    I’m seeing that 64 Bit is the problem but really? Is there no fix for this other than spending hundreds of dollars yet again?  I’m beginning to think the computer and software is only for the very-very rich!  Who can afford this stuff with its updates every year!  They really know how to make a buck but what about the people who cannot afford to keep paying for these things?  I know I could switch back but I did a clean install and in order to switch back, I’d have to find the Vista cd again (which I tried) or end up buying that again!  Ugghh  All I want is for the Adobe Acrobat to be available as a printer, the program itself works, just not what I guess Adobe is labeling as the “extras.”  I have tried the below…but none of anything I have tried for the last three days has worked – not even talking to Adobe because they gave me the links to this forum and the online support – because their chat is for the rich who can purchase XI at 400-900 dollars!  Please if anyone knows a solution to this that might help me?

    Did the “Customization Wizard” but the other file (Transformer Tool) would not load install – received message “Acrobat Transforms Update did not find any valid installed Acrobat products or you do not have sufficient privileges to update registry.”  Grrrrr
    Installed PDFFilter64Setup.msi  --- seemed to accept it but I’m not sure it changed a thing!

    Keep in mind that AA8 is just about prior 64-bit and has not been updated to maintain currency with the newer OS and platforms. As a minimum, you need to do the updates to AA8. The updates are important for 64-bit systems. You may or may not get it to work. If it looks like it, please report what parts work and what parts fail. The links try to address the issues, but we need to know what works after you do the updates. Does Acrobat open (your note suggests it does) and appear to work? Does Distiller open and is it able to convert a PS file to a PDF (it can only operate on EPS and PS files)? Is there an Adobe PDF printer present? Can you print to the printer with print-to-file selected? Is AcroTray running in the background.
    With a new system, new software is commonly required. In fact, Win 8.1 may have problems with old hardware like VISTA came on. I still run a Dell system with XP on it. Most things run fine (though I have to get rid of malware and such periodically). So you don't really have to update with every change, but you may be on your own with some things -- or depend on forums like this to try to help.

    How to display or generate PDF417 barcode dynamically in PDF form? I am using Acrobat XI Professional and there is a Bar Code Field in the same through which I generated the same. But I want to generate the same dynamically.

    What do you mean by dynamically? When yo set up a 2D bar code field you specify which field name/value pairs you want to include, along with other parameters. But be aware that they won't work with Reader unless you Reader-enable the document with LiveCycle Reader Extensions and include the bar code usage right. It will work with Acrobat Standard/Pro.

  • Adobe Acrobat 5.0 and Windows 7 Problem

    How do I get Adobe Acrobat 5.0 and Windows 7 compatible so I can access my attachments to e-mails sent to me?

    I was successful in installing AA5 in Win7 Starter as a test. It works except that I changed the printer port to file (AcroTray or the Distiller Assistant of AA5 does not work in Win7). You can open the files that are created in Distiller to create PDFs. You may be able to use watched folders to automate the process to some degree.
    I suspect that your question is more of having problems reading PDF files in AA5. That is a different issue. It is not a Win7 compatibility issue, but one of needing a newer PDF viewer. I have AA5 on one XP machine that I use Reader X on for seeing the newer files. I do have to deal with some conflicts between AA5 and ARX, but I can deal with that (many folks lose there minds on that).
    There is one other option that might be a major problem. Many folks are getting Win7 on 64-bit machines. In that case, you will have to be sure AA5 runs in 32-bit compatibility.
    At least that should give you some ideas of what might work. If a 64-bit machine, you may definitely have a problem -- I never tested that combination.

  • Upgraded to Acrobat Prp 9 and Windows 7, and I can't merge files anymore.

    Hi, Upgraded to Acrobat Pro 9 and Windows 7, and I can't merge files anymore.  Acrobat Pro tries to save each file individually before it tries to combine the files.  I actually get an error message with PDF files that are in my list of files to merge.  Please help!

    Did you do the updates to Acrobat? Now at 9.5.5.

  • Acrobat 6.0 and Windows 7 - is there a PDF printer driver available?

    Hi,
    I have been using Acrobat 6.0 with Windows XP fine. However, I just got a new computer that has Windows 7.
    I installed Acrobat 6.0 but cannot now convert any documents to PDF on this new computer. I get this error--
    "The PDF maker cannot find the Adobe PDF printer driver and to reinstall Adobe Acrobat 6.0"
    However, reinstalling Acrobat 6.0 does not help, nor does the repair feature.
    Is There a patch for this product? Can I download a driver for the PDF printer so that it is compatible with Windows 7?
    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    I have Acrobat 6 as well and just upgraded to windows 7. Can't afford Acrobat Version 9 either. From what I understand, only Windows 7 PROFESSIONAL, ULTIMATE or ENTERPRISE editions can you run most Windows XP productivity programs in Windows XP Mode(separate download). At least that's what I read here http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/products/features/windows-xp-modeI wonder if that will help you. I unfortunately only have STARTER edition.
    *The following text is copied and pasted from http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/products/features/windows-xp-mode
    Windows 7 Feature has a Windows XP Mode
    It's the best of both worlds: The new Windows XP Mode lets you run older Windows XP business software right on your Windows 7 desktop.
    Designed primarily with small- and medium-sized businesses in mind, Windows XP Mode comes as a separate download and works only with Windows 7 Professional, Ultimate, and Enterprise. Windows XPMode also requires virtualization software such as WindowsVirtual PC. Both are available free on the Microsoft website.
    To download Windows XP Mode or learn about its system requirements, visit the Windows Virtual PCwebsite.
    Windows XP Mode, available for the Professional and Ultimate editions of Windows 7, helps prevent older business programs from becoming obsolete.

  • Adobe acrobat pro 9 and windows 8 issues

    Looking for help regarding adobe acrobat 9 and windows 8.  I am unable to scan will  not allow me to select devise (HP officejet pro 8500 wireless).  Also unable to scan from HP device to PDF using HP solution center.  Printing fine from other applications. Thank you.

    This means that your scanner software or driver is not correctly installed.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and Windows Vista

    The last version of Adobe I used to use is version 5. Of
    course that is outdated, and it would appear that the files I
    created with that version are not compatible with the Adobe Reader
    9. So I downloaded the trial version of Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and
    tried to install it. The computer I am trying to install it on is
    new and the OS running is Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit I
    believe). When it says it is installing, after it reaches
    99.blah-blah % it keeps asking me about a scanner being connected.
    What the heck is that all about? It's weird. I connect my scanner
    and it scans and I print a document to a Microsoft OneNote file,
    after which when I close the scanner window the program is not
    installed at all. I check my program list from my start menu to see
    if it is there; and nothing. This thing is, why the heck doesn't it
    just install the full trial program like any other normal
    installation? I just want to be able to send word, excel, etc.
    documents using the acrobat distiller like I used to and create pdf
    documents. This is very frustrating. If this is some kind of
    strange compatibility issue with Vista, than I am really starting
    to regret buying a system with Vista on it more and more. Can
    anyone tell me what is going on here. What I may be doing wrong?
    Anything. Please help. Thank you.

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 pro and windows 7

    I have Adobe acrobat 9 pro and installed it on my Dell windows 7 desktop.  When I go to print to Adobe the pictures come up in the print screen with a green hue or tint to them. To view the pictures in the folder they are fine. To actually print the pics to the printer they print fine, but attempting to convert the pictures to a pdf file, they show and convert with this green hue or tint. Any ideas as to why?  I had this program installed on my XP windows prior to this with no problems.  Very frustrated.   Any thoughts.

    You are allowed to use one license on two machines. Deactivate the XP version of Acrobat. Wipe the machine and install Windows 7, then re-install.

  • Licensing Acrobat Pro Mac and Windows on same Mac

    I have a large number Macs in our business running Creative Suite 6. A number of those operators also have a need to run LiveCycle Designer, which is a Windows only product. At present we buy addtional 4 GB RAM, VMWare Fusion and a Windows 7 licence in addition to purchasing a standalone copy of Acrobat for Windows. Is it really necessary for us to buy an additional licence for Windows Acrobat or would we be OK utilising the existing Mac Acrobat Pro licence?

    If you're buying the perpetual license version of Creative Suite 6, you would have to buy separate licenses for Macintosh and Windows versions. If you're getting Creative Suite 6 through your subscription to the Adobe Creative Cloud, you can mix your two eligible copies, and download both Windows and Mac versions.

    I had bought a windows 64 bit  I-7 machine ,it  had windows 8 basic already installed, which i had updated to windows 8.1 basic, but hyper
