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.

Enable Commenting Tools in Adobe Acrobat under Browser Plug-in in Internet Explorer using

We have a problem in showing commenting tools in Adobe Acrobat under browser plug-in in Internet Explorer. Adobe Support cannot answer my question and refer me to Devnet here.
Our system is using browser plug-in to display PDF file by Acrobat under > > Internet Explorer (document viewer). The PDF documents have reader extension enabled.
We supposed that if a PDF page is viewed and I customize the toolbar, the same toolbar and icon will be displayed next time when I retrieve a page, only if I select "Review and Comment" icon, and it only applies for v8.0.0. If I do not select review and comment icon, or I have selected review and comment icon but > > use other version of 8.x, my selected toolbar and icon cannot reappear next time.
If my selected toolbar and icon do not appear, I can press F8 to hide the icons. If press F8 again to unhide the icons, all my selected icons can be shown this time. But it does not automatically re-appear if I open another documet viewer.
Kindly note that all PDF files have reader extension enabled, and only Acrobat 8.0.0 Professional is used in client PC. There is no Adobe Reader in the PC. The PDF version is 1.4 (Acrobat 5.x) or 1.5 (Acrobat 6.x). The user has comment rights since the PDF file has reader extension and Acrobat 8.0.0 is used. User has no problem in mark-up the PDF files, but has problem in showing the selected tools.
OS: Windows 2000 SP4
Browser: IE 6.0 SP1
Acrobat version: Acrobat 8.0.0 Professional
PDF version: 1.4 (Acrobat 5.x) or 1.5 (Acrobat 6.x)
Steps to produce the problem.
1. Scan paper document and create a batch of PDF files (one page per file)
2. Enable reader extension for all PDF files by LifeCycle.
3. Put the PDF files into a web based interface, entering a page number will open a new web browser which interface the browser plug-in and display the content of the imaged PDF file by Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.0.0.
4. Open a page. It only show a few icons on toolbar (see a.png).
5. Select the commenting icons to be shown (do not enabled in "review and comment)". The icons will be shown.
6. If the browser is closed, then use the web interface to open another page, the selected tools cannot be shown (same as a.png attached in my previous email).
7. Select "review and comment" tool. (see b.png attached in my previous email)
8. The selected tools are shown again (see c.png attached in my previous email).
9. Close the browser, use the web interface to open another page, the selected tools are still here.
10. Unselect "review and comment", the selected tools will be hidden next time when a page is opened by the web interface.
11. Close the browser, and open a new page in web interface, the PDF file will be shown, and the selected icons are hidden.
12. Press F8 to hide icons, all tools are hidden.
13. Press F8 to unhide icons, all selected tools that are not shown in step 11 are shown again
14. If Acrobat 8.0.0 is patched or updated, "review and comment" tool has no effect in "memorizing" the selected tools.

That option is nothing to do with the PDF being editable, it's to control the display of the toolbars. "Reading Mode" is when the toolbars are hidden and the black head-up display navigation bar appears at the bottom of the screen.
PDFs displayed within a web browser with Acrobat/Reader X are not editable, nor can you apply markups, unless you're within a browser-based-review workflow. You have to save a copy locally and open it in desktop mode to make any changes.

PDF Maker icons ("Acrobat (8 Pro) ribbon") missing Outlook 2007 Win XP

Hi. I have Acrobat 8 Pro and Outlook 2007 (not Outlook Express) on Win XP patched current, and the PDF Maker icons ("Acrobat ribbon") is missing from my Outlook Mail window.
Acrobat Create PDF is in the Menu in Word 2007 and works fine there.
I have followed all the instructions in
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/403/kb403561.html
and all in
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/401/kb401734.html
except Acrobat Repair or re-installing Acrobat (or Registry edit which is clearly not called for as the dll is already Active), and still no joy. I have verified that PDFMOutlook.dll is in the Active list in Trust Center (and of course therefore it is not disabled) in my Outlook. Still, it fails to appear in my drop-list of Toolbars, therefore I cannot fix the problem myself because the standard answer (choose that Toolbar) is not available on my workstation.
====> Do you recommend un-installing and re-installing? If yes, are you saying there is no risk I will make matters worse? Is there instead some way for me to determine what is actually wrong?
Thanks for any help.
Jim

Tried from another computer with XP and 8 Pro still didn't work so tried from a Win7 machine with adobe X standard and it worked everytime. Just ordered the upgrade because their time is more valuable than the cost.
Thanks

Keeping Reader Toolbar Hidden in Internet Explorer

How do I keep the Adobe Reader Toolbar hidden after I hide it when viewing a PDF in Internet Explorer?
If I right click on the toolbar and select the Hide Toolbars Option, the toolbar is hidden for the current PDF. But, the next time I navigate to a PDF in Internet Explorer, the toolbar is visible again.
If Adobe Reader is started outside of Internet Explorer, the toolbar can be hidden and remain hidden until I select the appropriate menu option to show the toolbar again.
Thanks.

It is usually dimmed till the time a page is completely loaded. Does this happen for you for all pages, or a specific web page? If specific web page, try pressing the stop button of the browser and see if that helps.

Using Acrobat XI - no PDFMaker icon in Internet Explorer

Why would the PDFMaker icon not show in Internet Explorer -- is it not compatible with 64bit?

Lori,
I have Internet Explorer 9, version 9.0.8112.16421IC 64-bit Edition.
I followed the steps you suggested, but don't see the Acrobat icons.
Below is a screen capture of the Manage Add-ons window.

How can I put quicklinks into the toolbar like in Internet Explorer

In Internet Explorer you can Add Favorites to the toolbar - how can I do this in Firefox?

Firefox has a bar for Bookmarks (equivalent of Favorites). To display the bar, you can right-click a blank area to the right of the tabs and turn on the Bookmarks Toolbar. This also is available from the following menus:
orange Firefox button > Options > Bookmarks Toolbar ''or'' 
classic View menu > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar
Does that do what you need?

How can I place a "Favorites" tab in the toolbar - ie : like internet explorer has??

There is no provision for a list of "Favorites" (ie : as with internet explorer") with Firefox - this complicates use of realplayer with firefox.

Right click a blank part of the Tab bar and then click Customize. A panel will open and you'll find a number of buttons in there which you can drag onto the toolbar. The Bookmarks button has a white star on it.
Similarly, you can remove elements you don't like including toolbars by dragging them into that panel.
Also, while the panel remains visible, you can re-arrange the layout to your own liking by dragging elements like toolbars and buttons around.
For example, drag the "Home" button from its default position on the right of the Search bar and place it next to the others. Add spacers between buttons by dragging the vertical version between each (''but not between the Back/Forward buttons because they won't work anymore if you do'').
Other things you can do. 
* Right click a blank part of the tab bar and click "Tabs on top" to remove the checkmark. Tabs will subsequently reappear below the location/search bars. 
* Repeat the same steps, but click the top one called "Menu bar". This will reinstate the text links at the top. However, you will lose the orange Firefox button if you do that. 
Reverse the procedure if you don't like the effect.
The status bar has been removed in Firefox 4.0.x, but you can get it back by installing this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/

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 8 Pro - Toolbar Problem

Hi,
2 days ago I bought a new Dell T5400 precision workstation. I am using XP Pro SP3. No anti-virus software yet.
After installing everything (Office, Quark, PageMaker, CS3) I launched Acrobat and all seemed well until I used the cropping tool.
At this point everything slowed to a crawl.
Same problem if I use the hand tool - perhaps other tools may also give the problem.
Uninstalled every application including CS3 and used the cleansweep utility (think it is called that) to make sure no legacy bits of CS3 remained.
Re-installed just Acrobat Pro but the problem persists. The programme launches in a blink of an eye and I can zoom in and out at blistering speed until I use the crop tool and then everything just slows right down again to the point where you think the application has frozen. After quiting and re-launching everything works at blistering speed again until I use the cropping tool or the hand tool. Same problem if I choose Document > Crop Pages.
Have tried several different Acrobat files.
Tried installing the Acrobat updates one at a time until 8.1.6 (I think) but the problem persists.
So now, apart from any software that was pre-installed on the machine the only things I have added is Acrobat Pro 8.
The only other think to say is that I used PartitionMagic from Norton before I started.
I haven't tried to re-install the system software and am reluctant to go through this pain unless someone has overcome this problem by doing this before.
I'm guessing that Acrobat 8 Pro has a conflict issue with something on the machine.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Russ

In the end it turned out that the standard graphics card which came with my Dell Precision Workstation (nVidia 290) is not supported by Acrobat Pro 8.
I just assumed it would be.
We had a PC Wizard around for 5 hours and having turned on the 2D GPU option in Acrobat Preferences without any success, he went deep down into the machine and turned things off that were on by default and turned things on that were off (memory allocation I think).
After this everything is fine. In fact we can turn off the 2D GPU option and it doesn't seem to affect anything.
I should add that I had actually bought 2 identical workstations from Dell and they both failed to work properly with Acrobat 8.
Thanks for all your help.

Two Separate Problems - 1) Some website elements missing in Internet Explorer and 2) Site manager page Locks up

1) I have two forms created in FormsCentral embedded on my website www.videoaldeco.com . They do not appear in Internet Explorer. They work in Firefox and Safari on my iPhone. However, the problem only occurs on this computer. I tried another PC and the forms appear fine in Internet Explorer.
2) When I go into Site Admin Console page from Muse, Internet Explorer locks up almost every time. Only Windows Task Mngr can shut it down. Then it wants to recover page. Recovering page only locks up again.

Hi
Answering the questions :
1) I am not able to replicate as it works on my end , form loads fine on IE. Please let me know the IE version you are using.
2) I don't see the same issue with site manager , please check the browser plugins and try to disable all and then check.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Why is my Firefox Add-ons (Crowdstar Gamebar - Ask Toolbar) installed on Internet Explorer instead? Some of my game friends can see and use it on Firefox.

Why is Firefox add-on (Crowdstar Gamebar) installed on Internet Explorer instead? Some of my game friends can see and use it on Firefox after installing it on Firefox.
My Firefox is version 3.6.9.

That is not a Firefox addon, it is an installer package that can install anything it wants on your PC. As far as why it installed on IE and not Firefox, that would be a question for technical support for that product.

SSRS 2014 Printer Control Icon missing in Internet Explorer 11

I'm trying to determine what the latest status is with the printer control on Internet Explorer 11.
We have a Windows 2012 Server R2 running SQL 2014 and I've installed the latest report viewer distributable (2012 server.)
In IE 11 I still cannot see the printer control icon.
Is there a known, reliable fix for this or can I just assume that the printer icon is a pre-IE 11 feature?
Thank You!

Hi Bob,
Based on my understanding, printer button is not available when previewing the report in IE11.
In Reporting Service, each user who wants to use the print feature must download and install the ActiveX control that provides client print functionality. As we tested in our environment, with ActiveX control installed, the printer button is available in
IE11 (SSRS 2014 on Windows Server 2012 R2). So in your scenario, please check if you have installed Active control. If not, please enable the setting Download signed ActiveX controls in Internet Explorer, then you can install the required control. For more
information, please refer to steps below:
1.Click Tools -> Internet options.
2.Switch to the Security tab, select the Trusted sites zone, and then click
Sites.
3.Type the URL of Report Server, click Add, and then click
Close .
4.Click the Custom level button, scroll to the ActiveX controls and plug-ins node.
5.Click Enable for Download signed ActiveX controls, and then click
OK.
If issue persists, please check if value of EnableClientPrinting is True in SSMS. Please refer to the screenshot below:
Reference:
Enable and Disable Client-Side Printing for Reporting Services
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best regards,
Qiuyun Yu

A problem with this webpage caused Internet Explorer (IE9) to close and reopen the tab

I have IE9 (using 32-bit version) installed on a relatively new laptop with Windows 7 64-bit. Up until last weekend IE9 worked fine and Flash Player worked fine too.
At the weekend a webpage asked for Flash Player to be updated - which I did. Ever since then whenever I go to a webpage needing Flash Player I get the message "A problem with this webpage caused Internet Explorer to close and reopen the tab". This happens twice and then an IE9 error page.
I have read the discussions in here about the problems with Flash Player 10.3 and have tried the various solutions. I have updated to 10.3.181.16 having tried 15 and 14 previously. Same problem.
I have reset IE9. Same problem.
I have disabled all add-ons which stops the problem. If I enable just the Flash Player add-on then the problem recurs. Since there are so many webpages that use Flash I do not want to run my browser without this add-on running.
If I enable the add-on and run IE9 using software rendering instead of GPU rendering then I don't get the problem. However, this isn't exactly making the best use of the resources on my laptop.
This may well all be related to the 10.3 problems but no one seems to have mentioned having a problem with tabs closing and reopening so I thought I would post on here to check.
Any suggestions for how to solve this (other than using software rendering)?

Thanks again for your reply. I appreciate the time you have taken to respond.
I think, however, you misunderstand the problem. IE9 does not reopen the tabs on just one website - it is doing this on every website that needs Flash Player. Therefore, running in Compatibility mode is not an option. In fact, because IE9 reopens the tabs so quickly and then ends up with an error page, I cannot even click the Compatibility button anyway.
I could use ActiveX filtering - true. All that this means is that Flash does not play on any of the websites. When I want to re-enable ActiveX for a particular website where I need to see the Flash Player item, this just triggers the error.
This problem also happened on .14, .15 and well as the current .16 version. It did not happen with the previous version of Flash Player that I had on the system (version 10.2 I think).
The fact is that either Flash Player or IE9 or both is/are broken. The two choices I am still left with are:
1. Use software rendering (which contradicts the latest advertisements for IE9 about unleashing the power of IE)
2. Use another browser - I have no problems with either Firefox or Chrome

PDFmaker toolbar dimmed in Internet Explorer 7

Product: Acrobat Pro 8.1.2
Problem: PDFmaker toolbar is enabled in Internet Options/Programs/Manage Addons but is dimmed and does not function. I've enabled and reenabled and tried repairing the Acrobat installation. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Tom

It is usually dimmed till the time a page is completely loaded. Does this happen for you for all pages, or a specific web page? If specific web page, try pressing the stop button of the browser and see if that helps.

Acrobat 9 Pro - Toolbar Customization Disappearing

Hello all,
I am having a very annoying problem with Acrobat 9 Professional. Whenever I customize any of my toolbars, as soon as I quit and restart Acrobat all toolbars revert to their default configuration. The toolbars I want on stay on, and they stay in the locations I want, but buttons I want on turn off and vice-versa. I have gone through all of the Preferences screens and looked through the registry but have found nothing that would govern this behavior. Anybody here know how to fix it so that my "custom" toolbars stay customized?

Same problem on a clients machine. Did you ever find a solution? I'm wondering if it has anything to do with sandboxing or administrative privlages...
