Adobe Air I cannot open up a popup browser

I'm having a problem with adobe air. I cannot open up a popup
browser window from clicking on a button in a adobe air program. I
can only open up browser windows within existing browser windows or
a new window if none is open.

Update:
I can get this to work:
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("
http://www.mydomain.com");
navigateToURL(request, "_blank");
but not this:
var request:URLRequest = new
URLRequest("javascript:window.open('
http://www.mydomain.com','NameofWindow','width=800,height
=600,top=0,left=0'); void(0);");
navigateToURL(request);

Cant install or uninstall Adobe Air. Keep getting error message "This application requires a version of Adobe AIR which cannot be found"

I am running Windows 7 and use Adobe AIR for Flixster. When I tried to open Flixster I recieved an error message saying i needed to install Adobe AIR. I looked and saw that according to control panel, Adobe AIR is installed. I attempted to uninstall but get this EXACT message:
"This application requires a version of Adobe AIR which cannot be found. Please download the latest version of the runtime from http://www.adobe.com/go/getair, or contact the application author for an updated version."
I have tried going to the mentioned website but i get an error message saying installation failed and may need administrative privilages but I AM the administrator!
I then tried multiple solutions on the forums including the command prompt uninstall and still no luck. contacted customer support who told me i can only receive assistance through these forums.
Very frustrating. Please Help.

I have the same issue with a customer of ours:
Try to uninstall AIR – same message. (When I reinstall, the install says it’s successful.) I try to run our app, same message. I downloaded another AIR app, same message – so it’s not our app it’s AIR. We logged in as Administrator, same message. It’s a Windows7 machine. I did a system restore to 2 days ago and started over and still the same issues. I tried running the Windows Fixit to uninstall https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/mats/program_install_and_uninstall – didn’t work.

Why Adobe Reader XI cannot open a pdf file that can be opened with Reader 9?

Why Adobe Reader XI cannot open a pdf file within a browser that can be opened with Reader 9?

Hi Steve,
Sorry, I cannot post a URL to the file because it is for intenal use only.
I noticed that the pdf file can be opened outside of IE browser if I disable the Adobe Reader add-on (active-X) in IE browser. If I enable the Reader add-on, the Reader cannot complete the file download. The progress bar goes in a half way, and stays there.
Just FYI, the pdf file was created by Distiller 7. Do you think it is the issue of Reader add-on? Thanks.

I have adobe 9 and cannot open PDF files????

I have Adobe 9 and cannot open PDF Files. It gives me an encoding box??

Back up all data.
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Now...Tomcat6029 are a Windows service and it start with user SYSTEM.
In my Java project i build a .doc file and i try to open it directly with default windows application:
FinalFile = "prova.doc";
File file = new File("C:\\MELCOS\\run\\web\\tomcat6029\\webapps\\MELCOS\\fronte_quadro\\"+FinalFile);
Desktop desktop = Desktop.getDesktop();
desktop.open(file);
The process start (for example WINWORD.exe) but start with user SYSTEM, and user interface of Microsoft Word don't start.
(I've try to use getDesktop, ProcessBuilder, getRuntime without results).
If i try to open directly .doc like browser (stop on url http://localhost:8080/MELCOS/fronte_quadro/prova.doc) Adobe AIR don't open anything.
I've read that there is a method named openWithDefaultApplication, but i haven't find if it's possible to call this method in java file.
Can you help me?
I've got to start Microsoft Word (in this example) and open my files, or i've to open a pop-up like browser's "open - save as - close" window.
Thanks.

Hi,
Are you opening a PDF file in browser and trying to edit the PDF file there?
Please let me know in more details.
In general most PDF files cannot be edited in browser and some PDF can be edited with the permission for editing in browsers.
Thank you.

Thank you very much and best regards,

None of the threads or other troubleshooting tips I've found have resolved this.
Just clicking on the Adobe Reader icon by itself causes the problem.

Your log file shows you to be running v10.1.0.534. Could you please update to the latest version which is v10.1.1 and then try again. You can get it from here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/direct/
Also, has a rule been created in the BeyondTrust Software application you appear to be using to allow Reader X to open in Protected Mode? That application might be interfering with the way Reader X operates. There's a demo on their site which might help: http://www.beyondtrust.com/Products/PowerBroker-Desktops-Windows-Edition/Product-Demo/

Adobe acrobat X cannot open PDF files in Firefox, though IE can. What gives?

when I download a page that's a PDF file from the Web, Firefox cannot open it, although Internet Explorer can. I just uninstalled Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0 because I had Adobe Reader X installed.

When I enter about:preferences#applications <Enter> in the address bar, then for PDF it shows:
pdf File (application/x-download) ... Use Adobe Acrobat Professional
pdf File (application/x-pdf) .... Use Adobe Acrobat Professional
Portable Document Format (PDF) ... Save File'''
I would like all PDF's to open in Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional.
Right now none of the PDF's open at all, so opening in Firefox or any other viewer would be preferred over not showing up at all.

Please try opening the PDF file using Adobe Reader and then check.
Let me know in which browser are you trying to view the PDFs so that I can help you out enabling the required plug-ins.

Purchase classroom in a book for Adobe pre 12 cannot open lessons

done to open lessons.

There are known problems with the samples offered in the Classroom in a Book series for Premiere Elements.
Is your problem extended to all the lesson files or just some.
Please contact the publisher of the book for lessons files issues correction...there have been many.
You should see the Publisher contact information in the book somewhere.
How are you trying to open a file in Premiere Elements 12, Add Media/then what?
And what is the name of a specific file in those lessons that you are trying to open in Premiere Elements 12?
Probably, more important and to the point, can you import your own stills or videos without problems into
Premiere Elements 12?
Please update 12 to 12.1 Update if you have not already. See an opened project's Help Menu/Update.
Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you.

Creating PDF through Adobe PDF print - Cannot open this file?

Hello!
I have a user who I recently installed Acrobat X on their machine. They are in a program called DSS and he when he goes to file --> Print and then selects Adobe PDF he gets errors when converting a map into a pdf. It shows the Creating Adobe PDF box and has a progress bar. Then an error box says Acrobat Distiller:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 10\Acrobat\.......
Cannot open this file.
Please check that the correct path and filename are given.
Magically it converts but the problem is with the errors and sometimes the conversion isnt accurate. What port does this need to be on becuae I notices it defaults to COM1???
Thanks, any help would be much appreciated.

Please have the user post, we need much more information. Operating System, Service Package, 32-bit/64-bit. If 64-bit is the program 32-bit or 64-bit native? Version of the program DSS. What kind of program is DSS and who makes it? Googling DSS doesn't help much since there are several choices.

Adobe air apps cannot be installed

Hi,
I have trouble with my PC to install any kind of adobe air app. When I start to install a Adobe air app, I get the UAC request and I confirm it but then the Adobe Air Application Installer.exe *32 is hanging and doing nothing.
When I repeat the process another Adobe Air Application Installer.exe *32 instance is started.
Here is my equipment and what I tried:
Equipment:
Windows 7 professional SP1 64 -Bit
- Reinstalling Adobe air with Revo Uninstaller(cleaning registry) and installing it new with Admin rights.
- Installing Adobe air in Windows XP Sp3 mode
- Multiple apps were tried and when I start them with the SDK, they are working fine.
- No information are available in the windows eventlogs
Any idea how to solve it or any possibility to start a debug tool to get more information?
Thank you in advance for any input and help!
Cheers,
Dominik

Hi Chris,

2. Install Adobe air new
3. Try to install the app SmartClient.air -> Did not work
4. Try to install the app DesktopiPhone.air -> Did not work
Now I have 4 Adobe air instance in the task manager(see screenshot)
