Acrord32(acrobat reader) loads up for no reason when i use firefox 4.

(4-15-11)
i just started using firefox 4(new release) two days ago, i noticed it started to hang and freeze up, so i open up my windows task manager and saw that 2 files was running "AcroRd32.exe"(acrobat reader) , i'm using the most updated version of adobe, the older version of firefox "3.6.16" did not do this. The question is how do i stop "AcroRd32.exe" from starting up for no reason when i use firefox ?. i do not go to sites that have PDF's in them

IE uses a different version of Flash (ActiveX) than other browsers use (Plugin version), you need to install the correct version of Flash for Firefox.

  • Acrobat Reader Xi Crashes for Multiple users when they attempt to "Save As"

    I have multiple users here running Windows 8  and Acrobat Reader Xi (11.0.05) and when they click 'save as' to save a PDF they are viewing, acrobat crashes every time.
    Is there a resolution to this crashing probelm ?
    I have tried uninstalling (using the cleanup tool as well) and reinstalling the program,
    I have tried rolling back to an earlier version of Xi
    So far nothing has worked.  
    Any insight or resolution would be greatly appreciated.

    Uninstalled Reader 11.0.5
    Ran the Acrobat cleanup tool v2
    Installed Acrobat reader 11.0.6
    Still have the same issue.
    Narrowed this down to PDF files that are opened from a network drive.
    If I copy the PDF to the local Drive of the PC I can open it and "save as" successfully.
    If I open the PDF from the mapped network drive, and then "save as"  Acrobat reader crashes every time.
    Unfortunately we do all our work from the Shared Network Drives not from our local PC's

  • For some reason when I start Firefox, my pinned, unpinned, etc. Gmail tab shows the really old Gmail logo until I reload page, why?

    The logo that started showing up yesterday is from like 3-5 years ago, so unless Gmail is going retro for some reason it doesn't make any sense. I suspected and tried disabling Gmail Watcher 2.18 and Stylish 1.4.3 add-ons, because I recently updated and installed them. This didn't help. Could add-ons even cause something like this?

    This can be caused by a problem with the places.sqlite database file.
    You can check for problems with the <b>places.sqlite</b> database file in the Firefox profile folder.

    You can let all favicons expire to see if that makes Firefox to store properly if you revisit the web page.
    You can open the Browser Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer) and paste the JavaScript code in the command line and press the Enter key to run the code.

  • I have a Samsung wireless printer. For some reason, my computer uses Firefox to connect wirelessly to this printer. Since the last update, I can't print to my Samsung wireless printer. Why?

    Firefox tries to access the local address of the printer and then comes back with an error message that it is unable to locate it.

    As you can see here, Mountain Lion does not directly support that model of printer:

    You can blank the monitor using those keys, that's likely what you did, it's a feature.

  • Can you please put me in touch with the support  for the trial copy of adobe acrobat XI pro which I had tried out on March 15 for 30 days. I have  been trying to cancel since the cost is too much and Acrobat Reader is OK for me. I can't find uninstaller.

    I have had to erase my disk since then with trouble with Apple Store not recognising my machine and the reload from Time Machine has given complications . Can you please cancel my trial and return my Trial money.

    If you paid for what you used then it was not a trial.

  • Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.05 for Palm OS

    I'm attempting to install Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.05 for Palm OS on Microsoft Vista. I have already installed Palm Desktop for Windows 6.2. However, I consistently receive an error dialog box that says I must install Palm Desktop 4.0 or later; after which the install terminates. I'm using a Palm T|X device. I've updated all other software as is available on the Palm support site. Does anyone have a solution for me. Is there a way to extract the .prc from the Adobe installation file? Do to my running Vista, I cannot install an older version of Palm Desktop. Any ideas?

    If anyone ever figures out to maximize the screen on the T/X, please email me.  I don't have a lot of time to keep checking back to this forum.  I will send a check for $20 to your favorite charity to anyone who figures this out and sends me an email to me at [email protected]
    THANKS!!!

    Hi
    My first thoughts are
    • iMovie ill behaving - Trash the iMovie pref file - use to set things right
    • in reg. to Photos - Did You change iPhoto Photo Library - Then iMovie get's lost as it peeks into iPhoto on start up to see where photos are stored. Set iPhoto back to first Photo Library (when iMovie is not running) then start iMovie.

  • For some reason, when my Macbook Pro starts up, all of the MS Office applications open.  This was not happening when I first purchased the laptop, and I never added these apps to the startup menu.  How do I remove these apps from startup?

    For some reason, when my Macbook Pro starts up now, all of the MS Office applications open.  This was not happening when I first purchased the laptop, and I never added these apps to the startup menu.  How do I remove these apps from startup?

    By default Mac apps do not close when you close the window you were working in. Unlike in Windows when you click the top right X icon in any program is closes the window and the program shuts down. On Mac OS X clicking the X in the top left hand corner only closes that windows and leave the program running in the background. If they are left open and you reboot they will restart with the system and load a window for them.

  • I want to open a folder in a separate window by clicking on it.  For some reason when I click on a folder it just replaces the one I was just in.  I want them both to be open at the same time without having to go through several steps.

    I want to open a folder in a separate window by clicking on it.  For some reason when I click on a folder it just replaces the one I was just in.  I want them both to be open at the same time without having to go through several steps. Old apple operating systems made it easy to have several folders open at one time. 

    Eric, thanks that works but seems like an extra added step also to do it that way.  I've got to move and organize a ton of files and I'm looking for a easy way to get this done.  I could also open the folder into a separate tab and then drag the tab out so it becomes an open window but thats a lot of fussing around also with extra steps.  Not sure why these newer operating system seems more confusing and less user friendly than what they used to.  In the past I could just click on any folder and it would open in a separate window making it really easy to copy or move files from one place to the other just by simply dragging them from one window to the other.  Seems like I'm going through several extra steps now to do a simple task. 

  • For some reason , when i restore my iphone 4s to factory settings my headphones work when listening to music or youtube videos but when i backup my information onto it , it only comes out of one ear bud and i just got a new one from the apple store.

    for some reason , when i restore my iphone 4s to factory settings my headphones work when listening to music or youtube videos but when i backup my information onto it , it only comes out of one ear bud and i just got a new one from the apple store. my old iphone 4s audio jack was messed up but i just got a new one with my warranty , can anyone help me please.

    It doesn't matter what it is in your backup that's causing the problem because you can not selectively restore things from your backup. It's all or nothing.
    Set you phone up as a new device and start over.

  • For some reason when my daughter sends a text to someone else I get it and vice versa.  Also, when I send a text to her the text comes to me as well.  How do I stop this from happening?

    For some reason when my daughter sends a text to someone else I get it and vice versa.  Also, when I send a text to her the text comes to me as well.  How do I stop this from happening?

    This is iMessages, not an SMS/MMS, and this means the same Apple ID is registered for iMessage on each iPhone.
    You or your daughter need to activate your own Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime. The same Apple ID can continue to be shared for iTunes store downloads - for music and apps.
    On the iPhone, go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.   Select the Apple ID at the top and sign out.   Sign in with the new Apple ID.
    Make sure the same email address is not available below You can be reached by iMessage at on each iPhone.

  • Hi, I have the iPhone 4, 32GB, version 4.3.5 (8L1) and for some reason when I connect it to the laptop, it starts synchronising but never goes beyond step 1. I have tried evrything, but it does not work and now I cannot update the iPhone s/w. any clue?

    Hi, I have the iPhone 4, 32GB, version 4.3.5 (8L1) and for some reason when I connect it to the laptop, it starts synchronising but never goes beyond step 1. It goes on syncing forever, without actually doing anything. I have tried everything, wiped the phone numerous times, deleted all files from the laptop but still no resolution. As a result, the phone does not really synchronise.
    This started somewhere in May 2011 when I upgraded what proved to be a problematic s/w version and the phone has not recovered since.
    Now I cannot update the iPhone s/w any longer.
    Any clue?

    You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

  • For some reason when I shut down my computer then turn it back on, it comes back directly into my account, bypassing having to enter a password to get into my account.  This works in direct conflict with the parental controls I've got set up.  Any ideas?

    Thank you so much for the quick response to my question.  I tested your directions and it works!!  Thank you.  I would never have figured that out.  I knew I had to go into System Preferences but would not have guessed that I needed to have Automatic Login set to off.
