Acrobat Pro 8, Highlight not working in browser

The company I work for has a specific audience that requires functionality in Acrobat Pro. This audience accesses these PDF document on our intranet using IE6 and uses some of Pro functionality (highlight, stick notes) and saves the annotation files locally. All that worked well with Acrobat Pro 6.0, but we recently upgraded to Acrobat Pro 8 and all these users are seeing is basic functionality, similar to what is in Reader. NO more annotation features.
I have verified and Reader is not installed on these workstation, a clean install of Acrobat Pro 8 is installed. If I open a PDF outside of IE6, Pro opens and all the functionality is there, but in IE6 it is limited (Reader Like). I have attempted to add the tools to tool bar but after selecting tools, they do not appear. Browser just refreshes without tools, as if they are being prevented from loading.
Has Adobe changed the functionality of Adobe Pro to only allow in browser viewing of documents with something like Adobe reader? I have searched the web and have seen nothing about this. Please help.

I am not sure if VISTA has the same problem as Win7 or not. For Win7, the AcroTray application that is used for PDF creation (both when printing to the Adobe PDF printer and with PDF Maker in AA6) will likely not work correctly. This may also be the case with VISTA. To get around this problem you have to print-to-file (you can change the PDF Port to FILE in the printer properties). After the file is create, you can open it in Distiller to complete the PDF creation. It may be possible to create watched folders to automate this process, but is not as ideal. In any case, you will likely have to use a work around. Also, update your AA6 (currently at 6.0.6). I have been able to do this with AA5 on Win7 as a test and it did indeed work. There may still be other issues for AA5 on Win7, but that was the major one.
All of these changes came from the rewrite that Adobe had to do to be compatible with the new OSs, not a trivial task. Do you want to blame Adobe or MS or both? Take your pick, but the end result is that it is time to upgrade. Unfortunately, AA6 can not be upgraded to AAX. You have to buy AAX at full cost at this point. To get the upgrade you would have to have at least AA7.

Adobe Acrobat Pro Licence is not working any more

Hi, Adobe Acrobat Pro is not opening any more and giving the error "Licence is not working any more". I have a CS4 on Mac OS X 10.5.8. I tried all the suggestions in the Help Forum. What remains is to install CS4 again. Is there any risk doing that? Or is there any other option. Best, Felix

Acrobat Pro 9 (nine) not working with Office 365 subscription edition.

Hello all,
I have a new subscription and new download of Office 365. The product is buggy generally and makes really frustrating changes to links to other programs that are sometimes difficult to figure out.
Specifically, Word 2013 will not communicate with Acrobat Pro 9
I have tried creating a PDF from Word via Print to PDF but that makes both programs hang; I have tried saving the Word doc, opening AAP and using "Create PDF" from Pro, but this also makes both programs hang.
I was able to create ONE PDF via the Print To option, but since then, both applications hang every time. Super frustrating.
Anyone have this problem, and, more importantly, a solution?
Thanks.

Hi Julie ,
It seems to be a compatibility issue .
Please refer to the following link for the same .
https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/compatible-web-browsers-pdfmaker-applications.html
Try Updating it to the latest version.

See if that helps.

Acrobat Pro X serial not working with Acrobat Pro XI

I have a serial for Acrobat Pro X which I've been using for quite some time. After formatting my PC, I'm now trying to install Acrobat Pro on my new system but it seems that my serial "is not valid for Acrobat Pro XI".
I'd be happy if I could install Pro X, but it's nowhere to be found on the internet.
Let me get this straight: I can't reinstall a program I ALREADY BOUGHT when I remove it from my system. Nice.
Help me out here please.

Acrobat Pro 7 bookmarks not working on v1.4 file that Reader 9 works with?

I have zero problem clicking on a bookmark in all my other pdfs.
In this one pdf (v 1.4 Acrobat 5.x) created by Adobe InDesign CS3(5.0.3) - the bookmarks will not take me to the page, none of them work.
With Adobe Reader 9, the bookmarks work, but I cannot highlight text, so I really want to use the Pro version.
Never seen this before. Any way I can resolve this?

The app info says it works with ios 4.1 or greater so it has to work with a ip4 as that phone came out with ios 5. You say you got ios 7.1.1 I would take up your issue with the app developer

Acrobat Pro XI does not work as it was claimed like when convert Pdf to Excel it changed its content

When we convert a pdf to excel it changed its content for a example see this Pdf
Which convert into excel like this
Can any body help us to fix this problem
Contact me
[ email address removed by forum host ]

It's working exactly as it's supposed to. If you save a PDF to a spreadsheet Acrobat expects the page to contain tabular data, as that is all Excel can work with. Your PDF has no tables, and a bunch of complex formulae and LTR typefaces which Excel simply doesn't support.

.pdf works in Acrobat Pro 8 but not Adobe Reader 8

I have a dynamic .pdf that I created in Livecycle Designer.
It works perfectly in Acrobat Pro 8 but not Adobe Reader 8.
There is a function that highlights a form field orange. It is called from the enter event of every form field.
There is another function that highlights a form field red if the field contains an invalid value. This is called from the exit event of every form field.
When I enter a field in Reader 8, it highlights orange as it should but does not allow me to enter a value and it adds an additional blank page to the .pdf. Also, it does not highlight red as it should on exit.
If I remove the enter script, the exit script works fine.
I sent the .pdf to somebody to test and it worked perfectly for him in Reader 8.00 but not for me in 8.00 or 8.01 which makes me think maybe it is just a problem with my settings.
Can anybody help?
Thank you.

Okay, I just upgraded to Acrobat Pro 8.1 and the .pdf fails there now too.
So my problem is not an inconsistency between Acrobat and Reader, it is that the .pdf works in the earlier 8.0 but not the latest 8.1.
I am happy to send the .pdf to anybody who wants to see it. Hopefully the problem is with my code and not the update.
Thanks.

Acrobat Pro 9 is not compatible with Windows 7

Acrobat Pro 9 is not compatible with Windows 7. How do I upgrade my version?
Thanks,
John

Where did you get that information (other than Win 7 is not listed in the compatibility list)? I have been using AA9 on Windows 7 for several years (it is a 32-bit system). Did you try to install it or some other issue crop up? You may need to be sure you install the updates, but otherwise it should work. Even folks with AA8 have been successful on Win 7 (at least that is what they have reported), though they are likely to have some minor problems at times.
My Win7 came with Acrobat 9 when Win 7 first came out and has worked fine. If you have upgraded OFFICE to 2010 or later, then you would only be able to print, not use PDF Maker.
That being said, it is still a good idea to go ahead and upgrade. AA9 is the oldest version qualifying for the upgrade to AAXI.

Acrobat 7.0 does not work with lion

Acrobat X Pro is the only version Adobe states works with Lion. You'll have to upgrade.

Adobe Acrobat Pro X will not open PDFs

Hello,
My Adobe Acrobat Pro X will not open PDFs. This happens twice a month and is becoming extremely irritating. I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling, repairing and a system restore. What can I do to make this problem go away?
Thank you.

To check that it is an Acrobat problem, open Acrobat from the programs list and try to open a PDF from the file menu. I suspect this will work fine from what I read into your post. I suspect that somehow your OS is changing file associations. In that case, right click on a PDF and select Open With>Select Default Program and then select Acrobat. Be sure the check box for default program has been checked.

thanks for your reply but I need more specific operation.
maybe I am not very clear about the problem one. I mean when I run the code in standard mode, if I click the browse button, a window will pop out and I can choose a video file from my local harddisk. but if I run it in "web start execution" mode and "run in browser" mode. the browse button make no response when I click it.

E72 - Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V not working in browser

yesterday i updated my nokia e72 mobile to latest firmware 31 , after that Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V and Ctrl+A shortcut keys are not working in browser. which have made me feel as bad as typing the same text again and again (usfel in blogging or web messaging).
ALthough these shortcut keys are working in notes and sms application, but not in browser and Quick office applications (word, ecxel etc).
Can some one tell , how to fix it. or do i need to wait for next firware update. firmware 31 was released on 31 of march 2010. and today is 26th of May. almost two months have passed, and nokia has not yet released patch for this bug ....
Nokia, how long i need to wait ?, for this bug fix release.

(Had to edit because didn't read previous post clearly.)
I originally thought this was a problem of Quick office 6.2.217 Nokia_S603.2. I think it is a Nokia firmware problem as the previous post had stated.
