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.
Can some suggest a solution. If already gone to my desktop and selected Acrobat Reader the program to open the file. I also have Nuance PDF Converter 7.0 loaded.

If you have Acrobat and Reader both on your system that could be part of the problem. You can only have one. Uninstall one and re-install the other.
If you have Reader only, you have posted in the wrong forum. Please repost in the Reader forum. Please give the version of Reader, your OS version, your web browser and its version number.

Acrobat Plug In Container Crashes After Update to Acrobat Pro 10.1.3

After the 10.1.3 update was applied to Acrobat Pro X for Windows (on Windows 7 64-bit), the Acrobat Plug-In for Firefox crashes intermittently. A dialog box will appear within the Firefox environment reporting the crash. Firefox continues running without issue.
Reported error:
Faulting application name: plugin-container.exe, version: 12.0.0.4493, time stamp: 0x4f920759
Faulting module name: Acrobat.dll, version: 10.1.3.23, time stamp: 0x4f7bd9b8
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x000bdf75

Report Id: ba947bbf-8e2a-11e1-9d58-5c260a306abe
I attempted a repair of the Acrobat 10.1.3 install, but this does not resolve the error; nor does reinstalling or updating Firefox to the latest build.

ry a restart.
Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

See if you can find a NPPDF32.DLL files in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\)
You can see the installed plugins on the about:plugins page.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/about%3Aplugins
You can set the pref plugin.expose_full_path to true on the about:config page to see the full path of plugins on the about:plugins page.
It is best not to leave that pref set to true as it exposes that full path to web servers, so reset that pref to false after you are done with the about:plugins page.
You can open about:plugins and about:config via the location bar, like you open a website (about: is a special protocol to access some build-in pages).
If you get a warning when opening the about:config page then you can confirm that you want to continue.

Developing Acrobat plug-ins for different languages

I presently have an Acrobat plug-in created specifically for the English version of Acrobat 6 and higher. Can someone tell me in general what has to be done in order to accommodate a different language, i.e., Spanish, German, for those using Acrobat? Would the entire script that creates the .api file necessarily have to be written in the specific language or only parts thereof that produce the desired effect in using it? Thank you ahead of time.

That's Great! So basically, if I wanted to market a Spanish version for a plug-in that added a calendar to a PDF form, then all I would need to do is change the script to display the text for each calendar month in Spanish as opposed to English. Does that make sense?

Acrobat Plug In...Could not find external window handler

When I try to open a pdf file with Adobe Acrobat, my computer gives me a prompt, Acrobat Plug In...Could not find external window handler...
The problem just started recently. I am running Adobe Acrobat 6.0 and the ME version of Windows. The Microsoft help desk told me this was an Adobe problem.
Can anyone give me some advise?

Hello.
I'm getting the same problem.
Did you find a solution?

Trying to use an eFiling system getting mssg "adobe acrobat plug-in is not installed or is disabled"

I am on an IMac with Snow Leopard - I have updated ALL Adobe products. I am trying to open documents in an online filing system and I repeatedly get the message..."adobe acrobat plug-in is not installed or is disabled". Anyone have any ideas?? Thanks so much!

Firefox can find plugins in several locations, but Firefox 21 changed the location of the "shared" plugin folder so older installers like the Microsoft Windows Media Plugin no longer drop the DLL file in the correct location.
There apparently are two ways to address this:
(1) Change a Firefox preference so that Firefox checks the old location. Here's how:
(i) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(ii) In the filter box, type or paste '''plugins''' and pause while the list is filtered
(iii) Double-click '''plugins.load_appdir_plugins''' to switch its value from false to true.
This will take effect after you restart Firefox.
(2) Copy the plugins folder to the new location. Here's how on Win 7 64-bit:
Open a Windows Explorer window to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
Right-click and copy the '''Plugins''' folder
Double-click the '''browser''' folder to open it
Right-click and paste
Right-click the new copy of '''Plugins''' and rename it to '''plugins'''
After restarting Firefox, the plugins in that folder should now be available.
''Edit: I suggest just doing #1.''

Hi guys,
I have an Acrobat plug-in application based on ASDK7 use MFC, it has a UI dialog could make user add files to the dialog.
Now, I need to implement drag and drop files to the dialog.

Drag&drop works fine in simple MFC project in Windows 7.
Is there need any settings in Acrobat preference?
Or how can I stealing drag acceptance from Acrobat App class in code?
Thanks a lot!

I also tried Acrobat 10 on Windows 7, not worked too.

How could execute acrobat plug-in in command line?

I am using acrobat plug-in to develop my own application.
But I don't want to launch acrobat plug-in feature through acrobat menu item.
Is it possible to launch acrobat plug-in(.api) with command line or outside acrobat?

There is no way to do it from the command line, but you can establish
whatever form of IAC/IPC between your plugin and your external application
as you wish. COM - DDE - IPC - named pipes - shared memory - shared files
- etc....

For adobe acrobat plug in why do I need MacAfee since I already have CA security on my computer?

For adobe acrobat plug in why do I need to agree to also have McAfee since I already have CA security on my computer?

hello, i think this an optional bundling added by adobe - you should uncheck that download option when you don't need it.

Is "Acrobat plug-in -'Could not launch Acrobat' " a Firefox or Adobe issue?

When I link to a PDF / Acrobat file nothing launches and the dialogue box noted above appears. Is there something in Firefox I can adjust to allow the plug-in to launch? Or is this a question I should pose to Adobe? I am using the latest Acrobat plug-in.
Thanks.

Disable Acrobat plug-in so

Is it possible to disable the Acrobat plug-in for Safari without uninstalling Adobe Acrobat Reader? Acrobat Reader is much slower for viewing PDFs so I use Preview to view PDFs that I download but I would prefer to use it in Safari too. The problem is that I have some PDF books that Preview unfortunately does not display properly, so I cannot just uninstall Adobe Acrobat Reader.

You can disable the plugin for Safari by going to ~/Library/InternetPlug-Ins and removing it from the folder. If you're referring to e-books that Preview doesn't display properly, you can always view them in Acrobat Reader or Skim (a free, open source PDF and PostScript reader). But if you're just referring to PDF files that Preview doesn't display properly for some reason, Safari is capable of viewing PDFs in the browser, without any plug-ins at all.
Post back with details if your problem isn't solved by one of the above suggestions.

Acrobat plug-in interfering with Safari quit

I'm using Acrobat 8.0, Safari 3.2.3.
When I quit Safari it quits normally but then I get an error message saying that Safari has quit without notice, probably due to an Acrobat Plug-in.
So far it is an annoyance, not a substantive problem, but it makes me curious.

Good suggestion, since I am running acrobat pro 8.0.
But, I just downloaded 2 update dmg's from Adobe, 8.1.2, and 8.1.6, and cannot install either one. When I open the installer it asks me to locate the copy of Acrobat to be updated, and the app I have is not chooseable in the dialog box---remains greyed out.
Must I locate and download some specific intermediate update, then update a second time?
Thanks for your help!
