  • Adobe Acrobat 11 will not open files in IE 10.0.06

    Adobe Acrobat 11 will not open files in IE 10.0.06. Problem started about 2 months ago. It can open older files on computer but cannot open or downloadd any from internet. Using Office 2010. Already spent an hour with my computer tech support under warranty. Please help identify issue. Thanks

    As a web designer - IMHO, Internet Exploder is absolute garbage disguised as software. This (and thousands of other threads in this and many other forums throughout the web) is just more proof of that. I've used Firefox since 2002 when it was still called Mozilla. It does about a million things IE can't and won't, and does them better, faster, and more sensibly.
    Microsoft KNOWS that most corporate workstations have Windows and most I/T departments forbid installation of unapporved software, including browsers, so (by a very slim margin) IE is still the most used browser in the world, but... that doesn't by any means make it the best choice. Because they know so many people are literally FORCED to use it at work, they will not make it more functional than they absolutely have to, because they don't care if people like it or not, when they have no other choice.
    On a home computer, it's different, and that's why Firefox is just a fraction of a percentage point behind IE in worldwide use, and thanks to iPhones, Safari is rapidly climbing the numbers too.
    Rather than trying to work around something that even Microsoft won't bother to fix, abandon their junk and go with Firefox, Opera, Chrome or Safari. It won't be long till you're glad you did.

  • Adobe Acrobat 8 will not convert a pdf to a jpeg

    Adobe Acrobat 8 will not convert a pdf to a jpeg. It just gives an error message and shuts down every time I to save it as jpeg. Any advice why this conversion will not work?  I use a PC and run Windows 7.

    The Acrobat 8 product family passed into End of Support years ago.
    Acrobat 8 is not compatible with today's OSs.

    I used "Migration Assistant" to send everything from my old mac to my new which included my copy of Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional. I tried downloading an update but when it asked me to find the version of acrobat to replace it was grayed out and I was unable to select it. My OS is 10.9.4

  • Adobe Acrobat XI will NOT read aloud any pdf files

    Ever since I upgraded to Marvericks, Adobe Acrobat XI will NOT read aloud any pdf files. How can I fix this. It previously worked fine.
    I create tagged pdf files in InDesign to be compatible with 508 accessibility standards.The files read aloud on a Mac with OS X Lion but not on Mavericks.

    no, still no resolution. It is very frustrating. I did have one 8 page document that it will read the first page but nothing else.
    Did you find an answer?

  • Acrobat 8 will not open on pc

    Acrobat 8 will not open at all with no errors. we tried to fix. then tried to unload, then reload still the same problem. tried the ittools cleaner still no luck. Is this an authorization issues or any other suggestions, the reason we need 8 to work is we have plug-ins that only works on 8

    HI There,
    It could be an issue due to some corrupted or foreign fonts in your system:
    Can you try the following steps to ensure if that is the case at your end as well?
    1) Close Captivate and all other running applications.
    2) Go to C\Windows\Fonts -- Copy the "Fonts" folder and paste it on your desktop (to have a back up).
    3) Now, delete all fonts from "C\Windows\Fonts" directory, this would remove all fonts that are installed on your computer, it might prompt that certain fonts are necessary as applications are dependant upon them, so, skip these fonts.
    You would be left with a bunch of necessary fonts after this operation., Now, attempt to launch Captivate again.
    Note: Please make sure you keep a backup for all fonts on your desktop.
    Regards,
    Mayank

  • Acrobat Pro will not install

    Okay, excuse my lack of patience. But I have now called Adobe customer servic (in India, and I'm in the U.S.) three times now, and I have not resolved this issue! I am a Creative Cloud member, and my Adobe Acrobat Pro will NOT work. On top of that, the Adobe Application Manger is $%@ useless. I get errors constantly. I'm on Mac OS 10.8.1. My other Adobe software works. But Acrobat Pro has not worked at all since I purchase Creative Cloud a few months ago. At any point, if Adobe would like to fix this issue, that would be great. Like I said, I've already called three times in the last two months. And the low level tech support guys are useless. I spend an hour or two on the phone with them and the issue is NOT resolved.

    So, it totally appears as if it was a network issue. The corporate network where I work is quite likely the culprit. Where I was thrown off is that since I have admin rights on my computer, I can install software. But using Adobe Application Manager to install Adobe software wasn't working. And to make matters worse, there didn't appear to be any way to install Acrobat Pro for Mac without using AAM. The workaround that I used previously was to install the trial versions of Adobe software, and then just register them using my username and password. But the workaround for being able to install everything using AAM was to bring my computer home and download from my home network. Unfortunately, Adobe tech support didn't suggest this during the three times that I called them. But it doesn't matter now, problem is resolved.

  • I've changed PC's but not able Acrobat 9 will not accept my serial key

    I've changed PC's but not able Acrobat 9 will not accept my serial key. I've been advised this version is no longer supported and I will need to purchase an upgrade, why if this worked perfectly fine on my old pc won't it work/accept serial key on my new one?

    Hi christinec87584091,
    Please try the steps mentioned in the KB Doc : Error "Invalid serial number" | Acrobat 9 | CS4
    This might resolve your issue.

  • MS Word 2010 will not display in Layout view

    In a nutshell, Word appears to be not so much stuck in "Draft" view but will not show Print Layout view at all.  I am writing a manual which includes many embedded images, charts, and the like, so all of the editing has been done thus far in Layout
    View.  At this point my project is effectively paralyzed; perhaps if I uninstall Word 2010 and return to a version that worked?

    "GSHancock" wrote in message news:[email protected]...
    Unfortunately the document is a section from an unpublished game manual, and falls under "sensitive" in its entirety. However, I will share this experiment with you; I deleted the entire manual's text and wrote a few lines, then saved the document. When
    I loaded it again, it came up in Layout View... so the problem may lie somewhere in the formatting of one of the section breaks? Weirdest thing.
    OK, I see why you can’t share the content. :-)
    Your observation does suggest a formatting problem. Continuing on that idea, working with a copy on the original document of course, you could split the document in halves (via Save As); then see which half shows symptoms of the problem. Split the problem
    document again, and again, until you have isolated the problem.
    Alternatively, if you want a quicker fix, the following would be worth trying: Delete all section breaks and then copy the content, minus the final paragraph mark (¶), into a new document.
    To show/hide nonprinting marks, including paragraph marks, click the ¶ button on the Home tab.
