Acrobat 8 std toolbar missing in Windows Exlporer

Until recently I used to have a toolbar within a Windows explorer window that enable me to convert a file to PDF without even needing to open the file. If I open a Widows explorer window, click 'View' from the main menu and navigate to the 'Toolbars' drop down I can see the Acrobat PDF entry but if a click on it to activate it nothing happens. If I return to the Toolbars menu the Acrobat PDF toolbar still remains but there is no tick alongside it. Has anyone got any suggestions as to how this can be resolved? I have attempted to re-install the program but doesn't make any difference. Many thanks John.

Try updating to 8.1.2 first. If that fails, try repairing the Acrobat installation from the Help menu in Acrobat.

  • Acrobat X Pro toolbar missing in Internet Explorer 9 / IE9

    I just installed adobe Acrobat X Pro on a Windows Server 2008 R2. Everything seems to have installed fine and is working EXCEPT that the Acrobat toolbar is not being displayed in Internet Explorer (IE9). If I check under 'Manage Add-ons' the toolbar is displayed there as being incorporated and enabled... but it is not displayed or listed under 'View/Toolbars'.
    Can anyone tell me how to get it to display??

    In Adobe acrobat pro, go to the Edit/Preferences menu and select the internet menu and make sure the Display PDF in browser item is checked.
    Click the Internet settings button and go to the advanced tab and make sure the Enable third-party browser extensions is checked.
    THen open the 32 bit version of IE9.

  • Multiple shortcut toolbars in Adobe Acrobat x std

    I'm looking for a way to have multiple shortcut toolbar lines in Adobe Acrobat X std.  I don't like the drop down tool bar that is present.  I use multiple addins in my toolbar and I want to see them all up in the toolbar for easy use.  Is there a way to add multiple lines of toolbars instead of having the drop down overflow box?

    You'll want to ask in the forum for Acrobat. This one is for the free Reader which cannot do any of this.
    But to get you started, you can use Document>Extract pages to create a new file of the modified pages...

  • 4.01 is a disaster; cant open tools/addons; wont restart in safe mode, toolbars missing when opening or moving to a new window.

    Subject line covers most of the question. Version 4.0 worked fine. I've uninstalled and reinstalled 4.01. No change. Tools, Addons doesnt reveal addons. New window opens with some toolbars missing and a blank page.
    Using tabmix plus; maybe that's an issue? Using Default theme. But these were fine in 4.0
    How can I revert to version 4.0? or the last release of 3?

    I had this problem as well - it was caused by a complex session with multiple tab groups, some of which needed authentication. I made a copy of my Profile and then deleted the session files, and Firefox came right up.

  • Acrobat XI Std register issue on non-english os

    Hi,
    I'm deploying Acrobat XI via SCCM in unattended mode.
    MST has been created with all settings EULA, license key, etc and following language options:
    in "Installation Options" (silent mode):
    Application Language English (US). No other options marked.
    Also, I made some change in "Direct Editor" in "Property" table. "Lang list" has been changed to "en_US".
    Installation and register works perfect on all "English" systems (by meaning English, it is location in OS). But on all non-English systems after installation following error occurs:
    Of course no need to know norwegian to understand that this is something wrong with license key or installation itself. So started googling and this article found:
    Error "Language mismatch between entered serial number and Acrobat launch language" | Windows
    But what is strange, default language is English. Checked this in Acrobat option and in Modify option.
    To clarify, I want to deploy Acrobat XI Std do different locations over the word with English language as default.
    How to solve this issue?  

    I'm installing Adobe 11.0.0 above solution is for 11.0.1
    I checked this key and couldn't find any difference HKLM\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\11.0\Language\current\ "acrobat.dll"
    Also, checked wow6432Node and acrobat.dll was missing so I added it but this didn'r resolve whole issue.
    I made additional tests today.
    Downloaded package once again from: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html
    Created new MST files with different options options:
    1. Install all language marked
    but I'm getting error during installation (msiexec /i AcroStan.msi /qb TRANSFORMS=AcrobatXIStandard3.mst)
    2. Only en_US chosen.  Installation completed successfully. So i started to test Acrobat.
         a. Convert Web page to PDF -> OK
        b. Print to PDF -> License box appeard ! -> so I manually put there license key and got this freaky ERROR (S/N doesn't match) once again!
    How hard it can be?

  • Acrobat reader X with thunderbird under windows 2008 server

    Hi,
    i use acrobat reader X under windows 2008 R2 . My Mailclient is thunderbird.
    I get an error when trying to send an E-Mail. "Acrobat could not get a connection to your e-mail programm".
    I defined thunderbrid as the standard mailprogramm under START->CONTROLPANEL->STANDARD-PROGRAMMS
    I already tried to google the solution, but the only one i found was for Windows VISTA and Windows 7. There, you have not only to define the STANDARDPROGRAMM, you either need to make a change on "default programms and computerstandards" which is missing in windows 2008 R2
    Can anyone please tell me how to use acrobat with thunderbrid in a windows 2008 environment????
    Thank you

    Hi Michael,
    sorry for using the wrong forum. I'll post my question to the Reader board ...
    To answer your question. That was my idea too, but it is not possible to copy a whole profile. They are a lot of other problems if you do that. I didn't find the settings only. may it would be enough to copy the settings for the reader.
    Best Regards,
    Markus

  • Acrobat 9.5.1 update on Windows XP Error 1321 solutions don't work

    Acrobat 9.5.1 update on Windows XP Error 1321 solutions don't work. I can't uninstall program. Error upon error.

    Hi John,
    I'm trying to install the SunMC 3.5.1 Console on
    Windows XP with not much success. The install
    displays the initial splash screen, but then fails
    with the error :
    The install wizard cannot proceed.
    Aborting installation now...First, are you installing from a complete SunMC CD or CD image? If you just copied some files out of a CD/image you may have missed some jar files.
    SunMC Consoles don't like to share systems with older versions of themselves. Try moving/renaming the directory your 3.5 Console is installed in (or uninstall it if you don't need it),... then try putting 3.5.1 in again.
    All my demos/work/courses are on 3.5.1 on an XP laptop, so I know it works.
    I think it's probably just not happy about 3.5 already being installed... so just move it out of the way for awhile to get 3.5.1 in (then put 3.5 back so you can have them both).
    Regards,
    Mike
    The Java version is 1.4.2_03 .
    The Release Notes etc don't give any clues.
    Strangely, SunMC 3.5 works fine on this desktop..
    Any ideas as to where I can go from here? This is
    effectively stopping me from going from SMC 3.5 to
    3.5.1, unless I can get the Console working..
    Has anyone else had problems with SMC 3.5.1 on XP?
    Thanks in advance.
    John

  • Can't find download for Acrobat 9 STD--the Acrobat 9 download is for PRO, and my serial number not valid for PRO.

    I'm switching to a new laptop, and I want to bring my Acrobat 9 STD with me. Deactivated it on the old laptop, went to the download page for Acrobat 9 and downloaded it, got to the part in the installation where I entered my serial number, and the installation wizard said it was invalid. That's when I noticed the download was for Acrobat 9 PRO, not STD. I used the support chat and explained it to the support person, and he gave me a link for the 9 STD download. Unfortunately, it was the same page. I downloaded it again. Still 9 PRO. Anyone else have any ideas where they're hiding the Acrobat 9 STD download?

    Finding the file all depends on how you did the install and if you downloaded the install file. If the install file was downloaded to the TEMP folder, there is a slight chance it may still be there (should be in Windows>TEMP, not sure on MAC). It may have a name similar to the Pro download of AcroPro90_efg.exe. The Pro would be change to Std and I am not sure what the efg stands for. I would search for AcroStd9*.exe. There seems to be a download for AA 9 std available at http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-acrobat-x-10-pro-reader-suite-direct-download-links-ddl.ht ml. I have no idea if that works. I had found one place where a staff member said he is working on getting links up for all the older versions, not just the trials (that are Pro). I simply searched on Google for Acrobat 9 Standard files. I can't find the message by the staff, but there is one in the last week or two as I recall where a staff member was providing links for folks on an individual basis.

  • Have Acrobat XI Std, installation of Acrobat XI Pro fails, version incompatibility

    Running Windows 7 Pro on work Thinkpad.
    Trial version of Acrobat XI Pro as of Dec 4, 2014 is 11.0.07
    Licensed version of installed Acrobat XI Std is 11.0.09
    Installer downloads, but when the splash panel displays and I press Next, I get the message that a more functional version is available and it bails.
    Obvious why the error occurred. Makes me wonder if Pro features are hidden inside Std, the way IBM used to take the DP Manager out to lunch while the CE flipped a switch for more MIPS upgrade. ;-)
    I simply want to check out the multi-media features before committing to upgrade.
    Will try using another computer, thought you would like to know about the problem.

    Sadly you cannot run Acrobat Standard and Acrobat Pro at the same time. The message is rather the wrong way round but basically a hint in the right direction.
    You would need to uninstall Acrobat Standard. Be sure you have EVERYTHING you need to reinstall including disks and serial numbers before considering this!

  • Can't upgrade from Acrobat X Std to Acrobat X pro

    Hello,
    I have Acrobat X std I purchased and d/l without problem months ago.  Today tried to upgrade from Acrobat X standard to Acrobat X Pro.  All seemed well until I ran the installation after downloading the files using the download assistant.  The installer window shows Acrobat X Standard in the top bar.  It will only accept my old Acrobat X Standard serial number.  It will not accept the new activation key or serial number.  I have completely uninstalled Acrobat X, gone back to the download area under my orders, and re-downloaded the file.  Same thing happens all over again.  Of course no support or help on weekend and I leave on a trip tomorrow.  Anyone have any ideas?  Thanks in advance.

    OK, I got it loaded.  Not sure exactly, but I believe the tricks were to not use their automatic downloarder, delete it from my computer, to select the "overwrite" option when the manually downloaded installer found the previous files (which I had uninstalled, so not sure what the uninstaller left behind....) then of course once it ran, it prompted me for the Standard serial number, since that had been uninstalled.  Once I put that in, it all seems to work.  Sheesh.

  • Cannot print to PDF printer in Acrobat 9 Std

    Hi, I've been able to print to PDF printer before.  But lately it stopped working each time I output something to the PDF printer.  It would not generate a PDF document.  I even unistalled the entire Acrobat 9 Standard and re-install a clean copy.  I still had the same problem.  My config is as follows:
         Adobe Acrobat Std 9.4.6
         Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit) with latest release and updates.
    Thanks.

    That was what I did by printing to PDF printer as a PDF file.  I provided a file name and location where to save the file, it started to generate the PDF file but then it quitted with the following log message which I do not understand:
    %%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
    82ypbdbl not found, using Courier.
    %%[ Error: typecheck; OffendingCommand: xshow ]%%

    End of log message.
    It looks like what there was some problem with the wrong font type not found so something.  Thanks.

  • Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few m

    Cannot convert webpages to pdf using Acrobat X Pro with IE9 and Windows 7, worked fine until a few months and updates ago

    I tried your suggestion, not knowing that the direct pdf printer would also "save as" PDF, but when I try your suggestion and use the Adobe PDF printer that is a direct creation of the PDF from the browser (IE9), instead of the "black out" areas I get when I use the "Convert to" button, I get missing blocks of the resulting PDF, and only get the first 1/4 to 1/3 of the webpage.
    Just to clarify, when I said I print the webpage and then scan, that is a work around I have to do if I need a scanned version of the way a webpage appears on a particular date and time, instead of the one step process I used to be able to do when Adobe Acrobat would actually convert the webpage to a pdf without blackout areas or, if I try your suggestion, blank spots with a partial webpage. But the idea was one I had not thought of and I appreciated the thought.
    Yes, Acrobat was updated, and is updated, and was working fine until a few months ago, Win 7 and Office 32 bit versions, Office 2010

  • Where's my Page Thumbnails button? Acrobat 8 Std

    A few weeks ago I was able to click on the Page Thumbnails button in Acrobat 8 Std, some how it is no longer visible so can't use page thumbnails option. How can I fix this problem?

    Right-click the left panel and select Reset Toolbars (or something similar
    to that).

  • Toolbar missing in illustrator CS4

    just noticed that my toolbar is missing in illustrator.  using CS4 on windows vista.
    never had a problem with it before.  only thing i've done differently is reset the computer back to an earlier date (only a couple months) and delete some temporary files while troubleshooting some hijack this files.
    was very careful what to delete and had help from an expert on the techsupportguy forums. don't really think this is related to the problem except maybe setting the computer back.
    i've closed all my open panels in illustrator, and tried turning off and on the toolbar.  the window only resizes but the toolbar doesn't appear.
    i've tried different work spaces as well.
    any tricks to getting it back or am i going to have to reinstall?
    thanks in advance...

    Let me ask a question, are you launching AI from an alias located on your desktop? Another Question did you move the Illustrator folder out of the Illustrator application folder and perhaps to a place where you could more easily launch it?
    An alias is a copy of the icon of a folder or directory of fie that links it to the original and looks like the actual originl.
    The aliases you know are My  Computer, Internet Explorer, Documents etc that you find commonly on a PCs desktop.
    This is the scenario that often takes place on a mac and probably would cause the same problem on a PC.
    Instead of creating the alias to use as a link to launch the application you either copied the application it self or you moved it to the desktop.
    What that means is that some essential links between the application are now broken such as some of the tools and menu items that reside in the Applications folders such as filters and effects, file formats and extensions.So they are not showing.
    The way to fix this is either move the application back to to the Illustrator folder and read about how to make an alias or just launch it from the Start menu or delete the copy if you have a copy of the application on the desktop and again either make a proper alias or launch from the Start menu.
    I do not know how this might effect the preferences on a PC but on the Mac it sometimes corrupts the preferences and they have to be trashed as well as correcting the problem.
    Having written all of this there was another way this can manifest itself on both a Mac and PC and you might do a google search if what I describe above does not apply to you.
    It was actually posted here about four or five months ago and it involved deleting a file.
