Adobe acrobat 5.1 plug in error

I am a newbie to posting in discussions but have benefitted enormously over the years in reading the questions and answers provided here.
You all have my upmost respect. Here we go...
My daughter recently upgraded from version 4.0 to the 5 series.
It says 5.1 on the acrobat pop-up.
I cant retrace her steps.
When I go to view a pdf document it says,
1. internal error
2. 'error in loading pdf plug-in'
What do you suggest?
Thanks in advance...

A) So I trashed the 'Acrobat Reader Prefs' , emptied trash and restarted.
Problem remains with 2 pop-ups.
1) an internal PDF error has occurred.
2) an error occurred while loading plug-in 'PDFviewer'.
Repeated A. and went to Adobe site and attempted to download 5.1
since 5.05 was not on the list of availables for Mac.
On both the 'custom' and 'easy' the downloads froze at 8 of 137 and remained so after 30 mins. Had to cancel.
I noticed on my plug-in folder that they all have either the 'Netscape'
or the 'Quicktime' logos attached, nothing for IE.
Also noticed that a 'corupt' message appears indicating that it may have to do with an email attachment not being correctly coded. All of this since 4/22/06 when my daughter opened and has been going nuts
on her Myspace site.
Should I open Hd and trash all Adobe Acrobat files ? But then how
would I download a fresh copy given the 'freezing'?
Sorry for the lengthy post but I wanted to give as much info as possible.

  • 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.

  • Adobe Acrobat XI Pro causes an error when starting it - Adobe Acrobat has stopped working. How do I resolve this?

    I've had Adobe Acrobat XI Pro for some time, but yesterday it stopped working and I started having an 'Adobe Acrobat has stopped working' error. It then tells me to Close the Program.
    How do I resolve this?
    Thanks and regards
    Roxanne

    Thanks Pat. I was able to resolve the problem.
    OS is Windows 7 Pro, Adobe Acrobat Pro 11.0.07.
    I went into the Properties file where I identified that Users only had Read & Execute and Read properties, I changed properties for Everyone to Full Control. That fixed the problem.
    I don't know how the properties got changed to just Read & Execute, but there had been an automatic update the night before.

  • Converted MS Word 2007 to Adobe Acrobat 9 random "Bad Parameter" Error

    Question: I Converted MS Word 2007 file which contained 892 pages into Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard afterwards and while needing to update only certain pages I receive the "Bad Parameter" Error. My process is using drop down Document/Extract pages(make my updates)/Replace pages into complete PDF file/ usually with no problem then towards the last pages of the PDF the Error showed up! I believe that it’s possible, the conversion initially may have allowed many tags to be written correctly but some are corrupted. It could be a buffer-overflow failsafe that is having an adverse effect against the two programs because of the file’s size? I have seen some good advice come from many people on this site like "Bill@VT" and "CtDave" and others so I am humbly requesting assistance? Some additional background information is I have to keep the file size the same and I cannot print to PDF file from Word due to a specific format I must keep and most of the PDF is not corrupt: meaning receiving the "Error". I would like to know if the error that seems to be due to the conversion process can be corrected. I have provided some additional similar post below from other customers that may be useful as reference material?  R/ Thanks in advance! 
    “Like 10 others, I get a "bad parameter" pop-up window when I try to delete 1 or more pages from a PDF created from Adobe 8 Pro from Microsoft Word 2007.  Of the 3 computers we have tried to delete the pages, we are running Windows XP and Office 2007 on all.  But 1 computer has Adobe 7 Pro, one has Adobe 8 Pro, and the 3rd has Adobe 9 Pro.  None are able to delete or extract the pages -- we get the bad parameter error each time we try. The PDF has 260 pages and occupies 5.7 MB memory.  What additional information can I provide to get a resolution to this problem?  Thanks!” “Civilengr10” (posted Aug 17, 2010)
    “I am taking adobe files from a database, saving them, and then making changes to them by inserting (from other adobe files from the same database) or deleting pages.  Very basic stuff! However, sometimes when I want to insert pages, it will insert them but then say "bad parameter".  After that point, I cannot delete any pages.  It will give me the "bad parameter" error again and not delete. I have reduced the file size, ran "Examine Document" and removed whatever it wanted me to, and whenever I save a file, I do Save As...instead of Save! Also, under preferences > security I have the "Verify signatures when the document is opened" unchecked. None of these recommendations that I have read elsewhere work.  Can someone offer me some guidance? I am working on the files locally.  I save the files from the database unto my own folder on the computer. The thing is, some of the files I download from the database are fine and do not give me any error, but others do.  Do you know how I can fix the files that are corrupted from the database?” “hoda64” (posted July 22, 2009)
    “Problem converting Word 2007 DOC to PDF 9
    I have a Word 2007 DOC (not docx) file with pictures and text which converted perfectly with Distiller 8. I installed CS4 Distiller 9, and now the same DOC file flows over onto several extra pages. I am using the default settings. Any idea what has changed? Thanks in advance.  “Petrula” (posted Nov 29, 2002) “First, select the Adobe PDF printer in WORD. Then go through the document to check for the flow of the document. It should print the same as you see in the document after the printer has been selected.”

    For the replace and delete pages, I can only guess that you are messing up some of the bookmarks or links in the page from what I think you have based on the description. I would work on copies between each stage so that you can at least go back to the last success stage. If possible, you are better to go back and do the modifications in the original page and the recreate the PDF. If that is not possible, then maybe a better explanation of how you are creating the PDF would help folks understand your process fully and suggest a solution.
    On the latter, I would do a repair on Acrobat. However, it may be in the process you are using in the conversion from WORD. How are you creating the PDF from WORD? Have you updated AA9 and not simply have 9.0? The confusing point is that you talk about Distiller for getting the PDF from WORD. Distiller is often involved, but only behind the scenes and normally you either print to the Adobe PDF printer, use PDF Maker, or use the MS plugin for PDF creation. So when stating Distiller, it is unclear what process you are using since none of the methods I mention state the use of Distiller even if it is used in the background.

  • Adobe Acrobat 8 Form Duplicate text error

    Hello World!
    I work for a school with 200+ computers installed with **. The problem I'm having is when a user downloads a PDF form from our web page and goes to start inserting data in the fields the text just duplicates in all the boxes. If you try and delete the text from any of the boxes it delets everything. I've tried repairing the install by running the original installer file. I've even reinstalled a test system and still duplicate this error. Please let me know if there is any other information I can provide that will help you help me.

  • I am having problems with the installation of Adobe Acrobat. I received an Error 103 the setup file can not be located. Can someone help

    I am trying to install Adobe Acrobat after I purchased the monthly membership. I did receive help but the after the installation is complete I receive error 103 which states that the setup file can not be located.

    Hi uniquenader,
    Did you encounter any errors during installation? Which OS are you using?
    Did you have any previous versions of Acrobat / Reader installed?
    Please use the Acrobat Cleaner tool ( Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool - Adobe Labs ) to remove the software completely,

  • Adobe Acrobat Standard 9.5 Install Error:  "Error applying transforms please ensure specified transform paths are valid".  Any ideas on how to fix this?

    I had Acrobat Standard 9.5 on a laptop that broke.  Adobe Acrobat Standard is paid for and all I need. I had to get a new PC (Windows 8.1) and I did downloaded Standard 9.5 but when I went to install it the installer gave me an “Error applying transforms please ensure specified transform paths are valid”.  Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Rahul,
    No error numbers other than the message I mentioned previously.
    I tried the transforms repair and it reported no Acrobat product (correct, none yet installed) or no administrative privileges (I am the administrator and have done previous administrative actions).

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro X - plug-ins not loaded

    I recently purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro for our company with multiple user licences.  Once installed I noticed a lot of features which were in previous versions are not available.  When I select the “Help” “About Adobe Plug-ins...” tab, almost all of the plug-ins are not loaded. Is this right and if not, how do I fix it. After reading numerous blogs I still do not have an answer – most refer to 3rd party plug-ins but not to this problem. NB: I am not an IT expert, but can help myself fairly well on software. Using Windows 7. Uninstalled Google Chrome as someone suggested it affects the plug-ins (which also did not solve the problem!)

    It's working correctly.
    The Help > About Adobe Plug-ins dialog shows the status of dynamic extensions which ship with Acrobat - not third-party plugins you may have installed yourself. These core extensions are loaded on demand, so if you don't have a document open, very few of them will be loaded. It's why the dialog bothers to tell you their status in the first place.
    Third-party plugins need to be reinstalled if you upgrade to Acrobat X, as the installation folder is different. Some that were written for previous versions won't work with Acrobat X, especially if they're not designed to cope with the Tools Pane or Protected View in 10.1, but they will not appear on that dialog - they appear on the next menu item down, "About Third-Party Plug-ins".
    The UI in Acrobat X is radically different from previous versions, but very few features are actually missing - what are you looking for that you can't find?

  • Installing Adobe Acrobat XI via ARD (Mac) Error

    I am getting the following error when trying to install Acrobat XI using install packages in ARD. ""Adobe Acrobat XI_Pro_Install.pkg" could not be installed. Error message: "Validating Packages…".
    This package has been built using Creative Cloud Packager 1.4.0, Build 37 with a payload of just Acrobat ProXI.

    Have you installed Acrobat XI on that Mac before then removed without use their CC_unstaller?
    Here is how I fix my issue:
    1. Rename /Library/Application Support/Adobe to  /Library/Application Support/Adobe.bak
    2. Reboot
    3. push out from ARD again it should work.
    you should also update it to the latest version as well either from the update manager or directly download from Adobe web site.

    Trying to install this piece of crap program from adobe "acrobat" that they offer no support for. It is 11 Standard and I have windows 8 and keeps telling me in error can't complete instillation. No other details. Any ideas? Can't believe they sell this for the price of a tv and offer only us to help each other.

    Hi Jennifer ,
    Sorry to hear that you are experiencing with Acrobat .
    Could you please tell is there any error number or exit code mentioned along with the error message ?
    It might be possible due to insufficient space on your machine ,it is not letting you install Acrobat .
    You could try deleting the temporary files from your system once and check if that helps .And make sure all the third party software are disabled while the installation is in progress .
    I would also suggest you to refer the following document to seek help .Have a look at this document and see if that fixes the issue .

  • Adobe Acrobat X Standard. Distribution Error

    Adobe Acrobat X Standard. When creating forms and then trying to distribute them to a network location it fails/errors out. When I chose desktop it works with no problems. Ive checked permissions on the network share and granted Everyone full access but it still will not work.

    I don't see a server status listed.  The users are attempting to open up a form on the network share, and they select the option to manually distribute the form.  They then attempt to save it to the same network location where they opened the form, but the name will usually contain "distributed" in it after re-saving it.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 Lion Printer Error

    My MacBook Pro came with Lion already installed. I installed a new copy of Acrobat Pro 9 and it worked fine... including printing to both my Canon Pixma and Brother Laser printers. I installed Lion 7.1.2 update and when I tried to print an Acrobat file I received an error message with both printers in the printer dialogue box. Example below. When I click the resume printer arrow there is a momentary shift to where the doc should print but then it goes back to the error state.  I cannot print an Acrobat file from either the File>Print menu or internal Acrobat>Print. Printers work fine with all other applications.
    I reinstalled OS X 7.1 and Acrobat again printed without a problem. I had to reinstall 7.1 (don't remember why I did THAT!) and Acrobat stopped pringting again! I have reinstalled Acrobat several times as well as OS X 7.1 but Acrobat will not print. Everything else in Acrobat works. I just upgraded to Acrobat Pro 9.2 but it does not print. I guess I could try OS X 7.2 again. Any suggestions?

    Oooops. Screen shot of the printer dialogue box did not print. Sorry abou that!!!
