Adobe Access plug in for Internet Explorer 10 on Windows 8

Is Adobe Flash Access (DRM) built into Internet Explorer 10 on Windows 8? If so, what is the best way to remove the Flash Access DRM plugin on Windows 8 (using IE 10)? In the past, I would have just removed the NativeCache and APSPrivateData2 folders from the AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Flash player folder. However, if I do that on Windows 8, and try re-install the Flash Access plugin by playing a Flash Access encrypted video, I encounter alot of problems trying to play back a Flash Access encrypted video in Metro mode with IE. Does IE use the same Access plug in for both modes (Desktop and metro)?

Hi Hiroshi, thanks for the help. I'm trying to test that my video player will download the Adobe DRM plugin if its not already present on the system. I've had to do this with previous versions of Windows, and I wanted to make sure the same functionality worked on the new Windows 8 64bit tablet. When I did this on the tablet (removed the DRM plugin from the AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Flash player folder), and played an Adobe Access protected video in IE on the desktop mode, the expected behaviour occured, i.e. the browser downloaded the DRM plugin, and playback continued. However, if I then go to play back and Adobe Access protected video on IE in Metro mode, the video doesn't playback. it seems to get stuck trying to download the plugin, even tough its already been downloaded and re-installed on the system, and the video won't play.
So I was just wondering, now that Flash is built into IE 10 on Windows 8, is Adobe Access also built in (does the user ever need to download the DRM plugin on Windows 8)? And also, is there any reason that IE in metro mode would have trouble using an Adobe Access DRM plugin that was downloaded by IE in desktop mode on Windows 8? The Flash Player version is 11,3,376,12
Thanks again

  • QuickTime Plug-In For Internet Explorer

    Hi Everyone ... I'm having a slight problem here. I want the QT plug-in for IE to be disabled. The reason being is that I get sent a lot of links (just links) for work and when I click on them the plug-in plays the file. This becomes a problem because I need to save these to my hard drive, that is not allowed in the plug-in. Before installing QT / itunes 7 a box would pop up and let me select 'open' or 'save as'. How do I get back to this way?

    It sounds like what you are trying to do is bypass the purchase of the "Pro" upgrade.
    Web authors get to "control" their content any way they wish. If they choose the QuickTime plug-in to enable this "control" you'll either have to purchase the Pro upgrade (this doesn't mean you'll automatically be able to save their work) or find other methods to "borrow" their content.
    Anyone can find the "source" to QT content by simply viewing the html source code. Open these files in your browser and use its "Save" menu to keep a local copy.
    Here is the drill:
    If the file "directly" links to a QT content file (or something it can open) you can open the file in your browser. Once the download is complete you can use the browser to "save" the file.
    Works for any browser and any file format QuickTime understands.
    Many Web authors prevent saving by either disabling the source (I do) or preventing "right-click" (kioskmode="true"). If they don't want you to use the file it is very easy for them to prevent you from saving a file.
    Learn how to "read" the html code of a page. You can "borrow" nearly any file.

    Dear benlim18,
      IE 9 is a Microsoft product which is under beta test.It is supposed to fix the bugs of IE 8.Thus,if you use it,then it is at your own risk.I guess if you post this concern in the microsoft support forum,I'm pretty sure you will have lots of help available.Search it starting at support.microsoft.com.

  • Error whil re-playing the coded ui test cases for internet explorer download window

    Hi,
    I have to create a test automation project which opens the IE and downloads file.
    I have recorded all the steps to download the file to local folder.
    My requirement is I need to download the file to a specific folder and compare those files.
    When I tried to replay the recorded step I am getting error while changing the folder location.
    I can change the file name dynamically but cant change the folder path as the click event of address bar fails.
    I have recorded below steps
    Click on Save drop down
    Click on Save As
    Pop up opens as shown
    I can change the file name at run tims by passing the file name as parameter and it is accepting
    but when I try to change the address it thorws error stating could not find the control with given search properties. I have to pass the folder path as parameter to the test case.
    Please help me in resolving this error.
    Thanks,

    not able to add images to this post

    Hi Meenakshi Nagpal,
    >>When I tried to replay the recorded step I am getting error while changing the folder location.
    According to your description, could you please tell me how you record these UI actions for coded UI test? Is it handing code or using coded UI test Builder?
    Could you please tell me if you are recording these actions and then you change the folder location or you change the folder location by handing code after you finished these actions recording and then get the error?
    About your issue, I tried to download file to a specific folder using coded UI test builder, I found that it can playback successfully.
    If you are hand coding your coded UI test, I suggest that you can try to record these steps using Coded UI Test Builder. Then
    generate the code and then try to playback check if you can download the file into the
    specific folder.
    In addition, about this error: could not find the control with given search properties. I doubt that the target control did not be found by the searchproperties.
    So I suggest you can try to add more searchproperties for the target control check this issue again.
    I suggest you can also use DrawHighlight Method to check if the correct control is found
    before you perform actions on the target control.
    I find a blog about how to troubleshooting Record and Playback issues in Coded UI Test, you can refer it.

  • Acrobat PDF reader for Internet Explorer may be unloading/unabling custom plugin

    Hi,
    My question is basically to understand what is happening in this situation so that I can find where is the problem and how to solve it.
    We have used Acrobat 6.0 SDK to develop our custom plugin. This plugin is basically wrapper to few basic tools  (note, stamp, text ) etc.. provided by Acrobat 6.0 SDK. We have also developed PDFViewer.dll to view PDF document within Internet Explorer. So when user load document within our website this PDFViewer loaded with the custom plugin and user can use those tools.
    We are installing this plugin under <Acrobat X>/Plug_ins/<Company Name>/MyPlugin.API.
    In our web site we are giving list of documents and when user click on a document it will load the PDFViewer and custom plugin. We are loading Acrobat.exe in advance so that we can load quickly.  Now the problem happens when user open any other PDF in different tab or instance of Internet explorer. ?How?
    Consider in a internet explorer user logged in our web site and then he/she can see let's say 10 documents. 1.pdf, 2.pdf, 3.pdf, etc...
    Now when user select document 1.pdf we are loading that PDF in the IE within our PDFViewer with custom plugin. (Here I have seen that behind the scene Acrobat.exe is loaded in the processed using task manager)/  If at this time if user opens another instance of Internet explorer or another tab and open a PDF document it opens PDF in the standard Adobe Reader PDF viewer for Internet Explorer resides at (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX).
    If at this time user goes back to our site and tried to work on 1.pdf our custom plugin works fine BUT if user opens any other document (let's say 2.pdf) the plug in stops working basically looks like it is not loaded.
    This issue only happens if user opens a document in another internet tab or explorer instance and open PDF which resulted in to open Acrobat Activex for internet explorer. If user opens a PDF document out side of internet explorer it is not creating any problem because at that time ActiveX does not loaded.
    So my guess is something is going on when ActiveX for PDF is get loaded into Internet Explorer.
    I want to know more what is happening and why it is happening. Due to this behavior our web site users can't use any other web site which opens PDF documents because then they have to log off and log back in our web site.
    Please we need immediate help.
    I am open to provide more details with screen captures.
    Thanks,
    Twinkle

    Hi,
    Thanks.
    So I want to make sure this is because with Acrobat 9 - the new way to deal with PDF's?  Because as per my knowledge it was working fine with Acrobat 8.
    Moreover, if I am understanding correctly and I have tested too, the order is important here, right? If I will load PDF in IE first and then I will work on my web site it is not creating problem but if I will launch my web site first and then open PDF within IE in different tab it is creating problem because they are using same interface and when AcroPDF instantiating overriding and failed to load plug_in
    Here I have seen that both Acrobat.exe and AcroPDF.dll is using same Acrobat.dll pointing to same memory addresses and that's why problem is happening.
    IT would be great if you can provide any other way to "hook" adobe because the bottom line I have to use AcroExch.App from SDK.
    One last question, I have seen that if I am opening a PDF in Internet Explorer in a different tab (not in my web app) while pressing SHIFT key and the move to my web site and load different document it is working fine, so the question is what different is happening when we open PDF in IE with pressing SHIFT key and without pressing SHIFT key. IS AcroPDF.dll behaves differently while opening PDF with SHIFT key pressed?
    Thanks for all your help.

  • 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.

  • Solution center suddenly ask for enabling Adobe Flash player for internet explorer for scanning

    Solution center suddenly ask for enabling Adobe Flash player for internet explorer for scanning. However, flash player is installed and enabled, but HP Solution center keeps asking for enabling and doesn't let me scan.
    Any suggestion?

    Hello there! Welcome to the forums @yuvalyanai 
    I read about the issue you are having with scanning, as you are seeing a message to enable Adobe Flash player.
    To begin, I would like to know some more information:
    Which operating system you are running and which printer you are working with?
    How Do I Find My Model Number?
    Which Windows Operating System am I running?
    Can you make copies successfully?
    Can you print from your computer?
    Have you tried updated Adobe Flash player?
    Can you scan successfully from Microsoft Paint?
    How is your printer connected to your PC, wireless, ethernet or USB?
    In the meantime, try resetting the printer:
    Press the Power button to turn on the product.
    With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
    Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
    Wait at least 15 seconds.
    Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
    Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
    If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.

  • How to restore Adobe Flash Player for 32 bit Internet Explorer of Windows 8.1 64 bit?

    Default Windows 8.1 64 bit install runs Internet Explorer 11 32 bit and all it's features, but slight disturbance for install of integrated applications runs user in such a trouble of loopback which he or she cannot escape, because problem application doesn't
    runs for Windows or for it's programs, won't show it's Windows existence but wouldn't allow install of it's new software, I could only install complete new program for Windows program to run desired object.
    I am using Rocket browser for Internet Explorer 11 32 bit because of problem of Adobe Flash Player uninstall or install.
    But how many applications do I have to search, trial and if at all successful install for use because of problems of such applications of Windows?

    As we have reviewed in other threads on the same topic. Internet Explorer for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 make use of separate management and content processes which on the desktop in a 64 bit environment are 64 bit and 32 bit respectively.
    This is explained here on the IEInternals blog.
    In most scenarios, the multiple processes are entirely transparent to the browsing experience. 32 bit addons continue to load and interact as expected with the content processes in which they are run and web scripts which detect browser architecture continue
    to function, detecting a 32 bit browser.
    In the Modern UI experience, the scenario is even more transparent as support for addons such as Flash and JavaScript are integrated into the 64 bit processes and updated through standard Windows Updates.

    Internet Explorer 11 needs websites 'Trusted', add all pages in need of running addons, and rest Windows operating system handles.

  • Did Adobe Acrobat/reader stop providing browser integrated PDF viewing(addin) for Internet Explorer?

    Did Adobe acrobat and reader stop providing browser integrated PDF viewing capability for Internet Explorer?
    Hi, I have been trying to view PDF's directly on my browser (Internet Explorer 9). We used to be able to have this available. To be honest last configuration that did work was Internet Explorer 8 with Adobe Acrobat 7. But I recently tried with Intenet Explorer 9 with Adobe Acrobat X and did not work as expected (I tried to activate the add in for Adobe but the adobe addin for PDF did not show up) I have the following questions:
    1) Do you still provide PDF's viewing capabilties on Internet Explorer?
    2) If yes: Is there a propper Add-in we (users) are able to install for Internet Explorer?
    3) if yes: Do we require to have Adobe Acrobat to have this capability? (this was my experience with IE8 and Adobe Acrobat 7)
    Additional Info:
    There seems to be an addin for Chrome wich works as expected (opens PDF in browser) to this current date. This does not happen on IE.
    Thanks in advance.

  • How can I know if the version of Flash Player installed is the right version for Internet Explorer?

    Hello,

    I am experiencing problems with one particular web site which uses Flash technology to operate its web site., which is:
    gadget-detective.moonfruit.com.
    It has been suggested to me that I check I have installed the correct Flash Player for the web browser
    I am using which is Internet Explorer 8, that in particular I should check I have not installed in error a Flash Player
    for "other browsers". I do not know how to check if the version of Flash Player I have installed is the correct one for
    Internet Explorer, but, when I go to the Adobe web site at:
    http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    it states that Flash Player is successfully installed.
    Here are the problems I have been encountering with accessing the above-mentioned "gadget-detective" web site,
    where I have had to use different URLs to attempt to get access to the technical advice areas on their web site:
    1)A Welcome page with a link to the Free Technical Advice page located someway down the centre of the Welcome page,
    but still with none of the previous links along the left side:

    How can I be certain that I have the correct version of Flash Player for my web browser Internet Explorer 8?

    Hello  ʇɐb ɹəuəllıʍ ,
    Thanks for your reply. I would appreciate it if you could let me know what the Flash Player setting

  • "Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro requires Internet Explorer 6.0 or greater"

    Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro requires Internet Explorer 6.0 or greater is the error that jumps up when I try installing it. Currently this system is running Internet Explorer 7 which is installed at it's default location. Any clues what can have gone wrong?
    Version 7.0.5730.13
    Build 75730
    Program path C:\Program\Internet Explorer (Swedish computer)
    Language Engelska (USA)

    I came upon this post after receiving this error message when trying to install Acrobat 9. In my case, we deploy Acrobat from an Administrative Installation Point (AIP) using Group Policy. I believe the user at this computer pulled the plug while the group policy deployment was taking place. I got the error when trying to install the program manually afterwards.
    I was able to rectify the issue by running msiexec.exe against the MSI in the AIP with the /x switch, performing an uninstall:
    msiexec /x \\server\deploy\AcrobatStandard9\acrostan.msi
    (The program was not showing up in Add/Remove programs, otherwise I would have tried uninstalling from there.) After that, the install proceeded successfully.
    Hope this helps someone.

  • Web.SHOW_DOCUMENT('URL', '_blank') doesn't work for Internet Explorer 7

    Hello,
    In my company, we are using Oracle Forms 10.1.2.0.2.
    After inserting a URL, users are logged in. There is one page in the application that uses a button to open a PDF in a new page.
    Code behind this button:
    web.SHOW_DOCUMENT('URL', '_blank');
    For internet explorer 6, there is no problem, but last week, some users have upgraded their browser to Internet Explorer 7. When they now push the PDF button, nothing happens. No error is given.
    Could someone please help me..

    Actually, I think a couple of my colleagues have seen this with IE7 recently... It seemed to be related to individual PCs rather than anything in our software, and was sort-of sporadic. I think on one of the PCs, there'd been an update to the Google toolbar and that had caused problems (and of course, if you have Google toolbar, that has its own popup blocker that you need to disable for the site in question.)
    Sorry to be vague, but I would look for any other browser plug-ins on the machine that might be causing issues.

  • Java for Internet Explorer

    I'm trying to find out the version of the Java Runtime installed under Internet Explorer for javascript/applets.
    How do I do that?
    Thank you,
    Bonnie Thanh

    I'll describe the problem that I'm having.
    I have an application that requires JRE 1.5.0_06 to
    be installed to work.
    On one machine, this JRE is installed and I have
    IE->Tools->Sun Java Console and under Internet
    Options->Advanced, there's a Sun (Java) entry of "Use
    JRE 1.5.0_06 for <applet>". My application works on
    this machine.
    On another machine, I also have this JRE installed.
    However, IE->Tools->Sun Java Console and the Sun
    (Java) entry do not show up. My application does
    not work on this machine.
    Any insight?
    Thanks,
    BonnieWhen the JRE has been installed there was an option to associate it
    with IE or not (to make it a 'plug-in' or not). It was not associated.
    Can be done now, as follows:
    Start->Control Panel->Java->Advanced-><Applet> Tag Support.
    Check the box for Internet Explorer. Restart the browser.
