Acrobat reader .sequ files - wondrous apparition

Dear Mac lovers,
within my Documents folder, misterious files in several languages appeared, all with an .sequ extension. Info says they are Acrobat Reader sequence files. I have no idea why they appeared.
I removed them into a separate folder and -boing- they are back again at the next start.
Has anybody any idea how to get rid of them?
I did not find anything in the FAQ site nor within Acrobat Reader preferences.
Thank you very much.

Checking the Event Viewer is good advice.
I had Error 1606.Could not access network location, and a web search led me to this advice to remove old registry entries for MS Office:

Makes no sense but there you have it.

Acrobat Reader PDF Files

How to search PDF files on the iMac -- not the search inside the file, but to be able to find the file itself.

By using Spotlight, for example. I prefer using EasyFind 4.9.3, myself. In the Finder evoke Spotlight by using the Search field of COMMAND-F.

File browser crashes every time browsing directories within Thunderbird and Acrobat Reader

Hello,
I am experiencing a bug. Every time I try to browse directories within application (ex. adding an attachement in Thunderbird, or Savin As within Acrobat Reader), that file borwser crashes.
But for Microsoft Word, which seems to use other module for Saving (I am assuming that, becouse that "save as" window looks different), there is no such problem.
Anybody else is experiencing such crashes?
Cheers,

I'm experiencing the same problem.. haven't found a solution yet. It drives me crazy.

Error message when copying from Acrobat Reader

Error message when copying from Acrobat Reader - any file, any time (Win 7, Adobe many versions until recent).
Copy works, but causes a needless and useless error message that has to be clicked away every time.
This problem is published on the web for a million times without a working solution. And even in the Adobe forum no qualified answer (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/441370)
When can I expect a solution?

Of course not.
But thank you anyway, I talked to my admin and we changed the whole company to Foxit.
It can be that easy.

How do I install Acrobat Reader on a computer with no Internet connection?

I have an elderly friend who does not have Internet access. She needs to be able view PDF files on her computer which is running Windows 7. I attempted to download Acrobat Reader install file and put it on a disk to take to her computer and install it there. When I opened the file, it did nothing. It just sat there. When I opened the file a second time, I got a message that it had errors. She lives 35 miles from me, so I need to get it right the next time! I would appreciate advice on the following:
What (free) Adobe PDF reader product / version would be best for her?
How do I download the necessary file(s) via my computer & Internet connection and copy them to a CD or USB thumb drive, then take the file(s) to her computer, install and get the reader program up and running for her?
Thank you for your help!

You can get the full Reader installation from here: ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/11.x/
This is the XI version, which I think is more suitable for a computer without internet access, as the DC version will just nag you about connecting to the cloud and enabling "mobile link", which you obviously can't do without internet access.

MS Word opens in Acrobat Reader

Running Win XP Pro and Acrobat Reader 9.
Whenever I attempt to open a MS-Word document, Acrobat reader opens up and tells me that the file type is not supported. Why would my opening an MS-Word .doc file make Acrobat Reader open up instead of the .doc file simply opening up into MS-Word like it is supposed to? If I uninstall Acrobat Reader, Word files open up in Office just like they are supposed to but with Acrobat Reader installed, I have this problem.

You have to quit Word before you shut down (Command-Q or in the drop down menu).
not just close a window- this does not quit the app.
ML default is to relaunch open programs when you shut down- Unless you disable this feature.

How to get acrobat reader exe path on user system at runtime

aoa!
i want to open oracle reports in acrobat reader. for this purpose, i need acrobat reader exe file path of client. plz help to get that path in oracle reports.
Tools used:
Oracle Reports version 6
Database: 10 g
OS: Windows XP SP2
Regards
M. Asim Hameed

<userSettings>
<Client.Properties.Settings>
<setting name="ParamValue" serializeAs="String">
<value>OFF</value>
</setting>
</Client.Properties.Settings>
</userSettings>
If i modify the value during runtime from "OFF" to "ON" by opening the
Client.exe.config, the application still access the old value. But if i close the application and open again then it reads the updated value.
Is there someway to make the exe read the updated user settings at runtime .
Regards Nithin Joseph
Hello,
I am afraid that it is impossible because the application just read that value just one time when loading the application, and the modification will not affect the value any more.
Instead, you could place a xml file, and load the value when you want to do any action with the event handler.

How can we create a plugin for Acrobat reader to convert a Pdf to Excel format?

Hi all,
I need to convert a pdf to excel format ! is it possible by a plugin in acrobat reader.
I know that it can be done with Acrobat Professional and i have to do the same with the Acrobat Reader?
Does the Acrobat Reader support file conversion plugins?
Sreejesh K V

Hi,
I don't know if Reader supports the onversion but you can easily check that : open an Excel file with Reader and check the result.
With Acrobat Pro when you open a document using Acrobat then it's automatically converted. If this functionality is supported with Reader you will have the same behavior.
Once it's supported you just have to open your document using Acrobat.exe (or Reader.Exe)
My mistake I understood the opposite. To check that Acrobat Reader support the conversion you just have to check in the Reader interface.
Regards,
Joe

I have installed adobe flash player. I can not open the file. In plugins under tools it is not showing. It shows acrobat reader being there but not flash player. Any ideas?

Flasher Player should be listed as a plugin in tools for it to work?

Chrome - Adobe-Acrobat/Reader can not be used to view PDF files in a web browser.

I can't view PDF files via Chrome (it works on Internet Explorer but I prefer Chrome) - the error below has arisen recently on Chrome, though I can't see what has changed.
"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."
I have looked through Forum articles on similar errors and have tried the following(text copied from other Forum entries)
Repair Adobe Acrobat (from Acrobat)
Repair Adobe Acrobat (from Control Panel
Configure Acrobat as a helper application: Choose Edit > Preferences., Select Internet on the left., Deselect Display PDF In Browser Using [Acrobat application], and then click OK.Quit Acrobat or Reader

Type the Adobe Acrobat path in the "Value data" for your product.,restart your computer

Repair your Acrobat installation
None has solved the problem. However it still works ok with IE. But I want to stick with Chrome because I find IE is so slow!
I am using Vista, with Adobe Acrobat standard 9.5.2 and Google Chrome version 23.0.1271.64 m which is marked on Chrome as 'up to date'
Does anyone know why I might be getting this error on Chrome but not IE?

I think I have discovered the answer to my own question!
I have disabled Adobe Reader plug-in, and can now see PDFs in Chrome.
(Steps: Chrome Menu, Settings option, Click Advanced Settings link, then Content Settings button, then select Disable Individual Plug-Ins, and a list of plug-ins is offered to enable or disable).
I then get a different result depending on whether or not Chrome PDF viewer is enabled - with it enabled I see the PDF document in Chrome, or with it disabled then the option is offered to download it, but either way I can get it it via Chrome without having to run Internet explorer in another browser window.

I cannot open this PDF file in Acrobat 8 Pro or in Acrobat Reader on Windows 7 64-bit

I have a PDF file that I could open on my Windows XP 32-bit laptop in Acrobat 8 Pro or in Acrobat Reader. I then upgraded to a Windows 7 64-bit laptop. But now in Win7-64, I cannot open this same file using the same apps (Acrobat 8 Pro & Acrobat Reader XI).
When I try to open it in Acrobat 8, it does not load and instead a popup windows appears saying -
Adobe Updater
Some components needed to complete this operation are missing but information about them may be available on the Adobe website. Would you like to search the Adobe website for the missing components?
And I can choose either the OK or Quit buttons. When I click OK, a web browser starts and goes to this website -
http://www.adobe.com/special/adobe_update_manager/?type=Filter&name=FOPN_foweb&version=0.0 .0.0&lang=en_US&os=Windows&osver=6.1.7601&appid=acrobat8pro-en_US&cpu=intel
This webpage says -
Adobe Update Manager
Adobe cannot locate the requested plugin. New plugins will be listed on this page. Currently there are no plugins.
So now I am stuck, no direction to go. I am left without any solution from Adobe for Acrobat on this file.
When I try to open this PDF file in Reader, it does not load and instead a web browser is spawned loading the webpage -
http://plugin.fileopen.com/Default.aspx?bhcp=1
This is the FileOpen Plug-in for Adobe Acrobat/Reader, which prompts to -
Please click OK to download the FileOpen Plug-in Installer for Adobe Acrobat/Reader
I click on OK, download and run the Installer file, accept the terms, and installed the FileOpen Client (x64) B928. Upon completion, it prompts to Finish. But it does not automatically bring Reader up or try to load the file. So I try again to load the PDF file into Reader. But once again, the file does not load and the web browser is spawned loading the same FileOpen Plug-in Installer link. I click OK again, and start the same FileOpen Client process. This time, it recognizes that I have FileOpen Client installed, and the window gives me two choices, Repair or Remove. So since I apparently need this Plug-in, I choose Repair. The process seems to complete the Repair. But when I try to load the file, it still brings me back to the FileOpen Plug-in webpage. So now I am stuck again, and left without any solution from Adobe for Reader on this file.
I tried Adobe support. But apparently Adobe does not support past releases of their products (Acrobat 8), and also does not give free support for the current version of their free products (Reader XI).
Can this be fixed?

How is Acrobat 8 not fully Windows 7 compatible? I see discussions on this Adobe Community saying how Acrobat 8 does work on Windows 7 and with 64-bit. It appears that if Acrobat 8 is updated to the latest version, then this should fix AA8-Win7 issues. And I am at the latest AA8 version, 8.3.1.
And how are Acrobat 8 and Reader XI are not compatible? I have always had Acrobat and Reader installed on the same PC, without ever having any issues. And Adobe allows the installation of one after the other. So apparently Adobe allows them both to exist together. If they are incompatible, then why would Adobe allow them to exist together?
Anyway, I did uninstall the FileOpen Plug-in and the Reader XI, then reinstalled the FileOpen Plug-in. So now Reader is not installed and only Acrobat 8 is installed. I then tried to load the PDF file, but I still get the Acrobat 8 error described above.

Acrobat Reader XI fail to open file from unc path "Access Denied"

Hi,
When we try to open a pdf file from an unc path by double-click on it there is an error message : "There was error opening this files. Access Denied"
If we do "File -> Open" the file open correctly. Same if we copy the file localy.
After looking around Internet and other thread Acrobat Reader X got the same problem but seemed to be resolved with an update.
If we desable "Enable Protected Mode at startup" the file open correctly (it is not a solution).
Does anyone have a solution to this problem ?
OS : Windows XP SP3
Acrobat Reader : 11.0.2
Regards,

I have also seen this occur with one user's computer. Another user with similar privileges and software setup does not exhibit the same issue however. Would love Adobe to investigate and address this issue.

How to Print a PDF file and Close the ACrobat Reader opened using WEBUTIL

Hi All,
I have used WEBUTIL successfully and printed files using webutil_host.nonblocking builtin. What happens is that after printing the file the Acrobat reader stays on the desktop of the client PC. How to close that file opened programmatically. I am unable to close it using any any commands or using following builtins from WEBUTIL.
WEBUTIL_HOST.RELEASE_PROCESS(PROCESS_ID)
WEBUTIL_HOST.TERMINATE_PROCESS(PROCESS_ID);My command to directly call the Acrobat reader file and print it is by using this command.
M_STR_COMMAND := 'cmd.exe /c start AcroRd32.exe /t '||CHR(34)||FILE_STR_PATH||'\'||FILE_NAME||CHR(34)||' '||CHR(34)||PRINTER_NAME||CHR(34);Help in this regard is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance

I think if you use the start-command, the execution is asynchronously and you won't get the correct process-id. Try to execute Acorbat directly without the cmd /c start in front of it.
