Adobe Customization Wizard XI with Reader XI-not all options are available

I'm using the Adobe Reader XI redistributable (yes, I got the license and special download, etc.)
I've followed the Enterprise administration kit which makes me extract and build an AIP. All is well
What I notice is that the Customization Wizard has some options grayed out.
For example, the DOCS for the customization wizard say that I can fill out username, organization, etc.
But those are grayed out.
Also, I cannot select the Installation Options -> Remove previous version of Acrobat (it's grayed out). I can only select the Remove all versions of Reader.
Any idea why this is?
I point it to the AIP reader .MSI File when i built the customization kit.

You should post this on the Enterprise Deployment forum but the username, organization, etc... are for Acrobat only. The ability to uninstall Acrobat is for Acrobat only. It would be a bad thing for Reader to uninstall a more capable product like Acrobat Standard or Acrobat Pro no matter what the version.

Adobe Customization Wizard X with Reader 10.1.3

Hi all,
First time trying to use the Adobe Customization Wizard X and i wanted to install version 10.1.3 but everytime i use the wizard it always sets it to version 10.1.0.
any ideas?
thanks

Hi!
Same here. Im using wizard X to create a deployable msi of Adobe Reader 10.1.3 but its not working. Everytime i open the msi the wizard transforms it into a 10.1.0 package.
I tryed with 10.1.2 and 10.1.3. It always results in a 10.1.0 installation.
Update: After extracting the setup.exe the resulting msi is definatly a 10.1.0. How could that be? So the wizard is not the problem.
I hate it. It takes me a whole day to read annyoing tutorials of how to make a adobe reader deployment work. I´m sorry Nikhil but your answer is not helpful. Please tell us what is exactly to do?
p.s. i dont understand why there is no msi file+wizard+tutorial in your download area? I was searching about 4 hours in different sources until i finally understood that i have to download the .exe from your hidden ftp, then run it with -nos_ne parameters to get msi, stored somewhere stupid in c:\programData\adobe\setup\blablablabla, download wizard, configure the msi getting a mst, put this and that on a share, set grouppolicy and and and and and.... ******* which admin has time for stuff like that? HELLO?! Its only an adobe reader deployment not a spaceshuttle! Im tired now and have to go to rehab for 1 week. Thank you.

Regarding iTunes U courses, would I be able to link to books/sites (like say an amazon hardback book or link to a kindle book they can purchase and download). Considering that not all books are available on iBooks I'm hoping this is allowed.   Also the possibility on monetizing since amazon gives commission for linking.
This question is for both the uncredited (private) courses and the bigger accredited accounts.    I am a developer trying to learn how to help my area schools and also have some ideas for my own courses.    Obviously keeping within the iTunes U app would be preferred in most cases (to the learning experience) since they can take notes and see them within the app itself.
If the reply comes from a non-apple employee please let me know (or better yet, link to) where that is clarified.   I would hate to develop something just to later find out it is against the apple iTunes U agreement.

Fair question
And, to be even more fair, I have to tell you that I get that every single day. And it's getting worse (or better, depending on how you look at it).
I always try to let people know it's a long way until you get to a confortable point, a point where you can create something. And that's exactly what I am trying to do, or at least asking how/if I should do it. And then I let them know where to start. That's what I want.
Thanks.

Adobe Customization Wizard XI: setup.ini was not found (while saving the MSI)

I have downloaded the Adobe Customization Wizard XI and the Adobe Reader XI .msi file. I am only attempting the customize three options of this application. When I try to save the .msi file I get an error "setup.ini was not found".
I have placed the .msi file in a folder on the desktop. Additionally, I have tried using 7-Zip to extract the .msi in an effort to find the setup.ini file.
Where is this file located? What is the solution?
Any help is much appreciated.

Just install Adobe Reader on a machine. Then you will get the flat files in a folder location that has the Setup.ini file. It will be something like this depending on your OS:
Windows 7 64-bit Example Location
C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Setup\{AC76BA86-7AD7-1033-7B44-AB0000000001}\

Issue with DEBMAS IDoc,not all fields are reflected in the IDoc Seg E1KNB1M

For IDoc type DEBMAS, there is a segment E1KNB1M. This segment is relate to the customer correspondence details (XD02 -> company code data -> Correspondence).
For any change to the customer master a DEBMAS IDoc is triggered which has data in segments including the E1KNB1M.
In my case for few customers, the not all fields in the segment E1KNB1M contain data. Few fields contain data but the rest are filled with u2018\u2019. This is happening only in the production system, for the same customer in the quality system the data is there as required.
I checked in debugging, and found that the data is correctly passed to the segment in program SAPLVV01 Include LVV01F01. And the segment contains data till the IDoc is triggered. I.e. the fields are not getting cleared at any point.
Can anyone suggest what is happening and how to fix this? Please note that the issue is only in the production system and not in the quality system ( for the same customer).

BTT... Need some help on the above

When converting over to HTTPS and PKI for clients, not all actions are available in configuration manager cpl

I'm not exactly sure which forum heading this should go under so if this isn't correct please let me know or move it on my behalf.
So I am trying to setup Internet Based Client Management in SCCM 2012 R2 and have come across a few articles on how to do so. I think I have mostly gotten it to work but I seem to be having a client issue when deploying new machines. My already
deployed servers seem to have picked up the PKI setting no problem. In the past when I would deploy a new windows client everything would be fine. When i converted over to PKI in my test environment I am now having issues when I go to deploy a
new windows client. I don't get all of the Actions listed in the Configuration Manager control panel. All I have are Discovery Data Collection, Machine Policy Retrieval and Eval, User Policy Retrieval and Eval, and Windows Installer Source list Update
Cycles, before all of them would populate no problem. I have let this machine sit here for several hours and nothing has changed yet. It does say PKI for client certificate. Sometimes when I would deploy new machines it would say NONE for
Client certificate. In my production environment it says self-signed. I have found if i uninstall the client and re-install the client it does populate all of the cycles but I don't understand why it is not working on deployment.
Ok so maybe not all the time that when i reinstall the client it fixes it. I just did an uninstall and reinstall on a test client and all it has under actions are machine and user policy cycles.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi,
I think SCCM client installed before the GPO applied, so you don't a certificate available when it is required.
You can export and import the certificate by using MDT integration, try this blog for PKI part:
How To: Build and Capture in Configuration Manager 2012 using HTTPS
And in addition, you can upload the log to your onedrive so you can share with us.

Client Installing But Not All Components Are Available Post Install

Hi,
Now I am not positive how the posy client install process works but it seems the CM client normally installs and has only base components, then downloads a policy and installs the other components based on the policy?
I have 2 DP's that is PXE enabled. 1 DP works fine installing the CM client via task sequence on W7. What happens at the other DP is after the task sequence runs it seems like the CM client is stuck and won't install the additional components. The way you
can usually tell there is a problem with the CM client is there are only 6 of the 7 tabs present when you open the CM client and if you click on the Actions tab half the actions are missing. What logs should I be looking at to try and troubleshoot this?
Here is the policy agent log from the client that has the issues described above:

Clients stuck in provisioning mode are usually due to unexpected reboots or unexpected state changes within the task sequence. Double reboots caused by a handful of software updates are a common culprit as of late. Really, the only way to troubleshoot
this is trial and error. Remove things from your TS and run it again to see if the client agent stays in provisioning mode or not. Start with the Install Software Update task.

Service Desk - Expert Mode - Not all actions are available

Dear SAP colleagues,
I have just implemented the Service Desk in our SOLMAN system.
1. I choose Incident Management
2. I click on Queries
3. I click on a ticket (Transaction ID).
4. I edit the message
5. When I select Actions, I only have the 4 following options :
    - Send Message to SAP
    - Maintain SAP Logon Data
    - Display SAP Action Log
    - Update SAP Message
When I consult some demos, there are many differents options available in Actions menu, as, for example :
- Open System fro SAP
- Confirm Message to SAP
- E-Mail to Message Creator (Mail)
- Print Message
- Create Change Document
- Call Solution Manager Diagnostics.
Is it due to an missing authorizations (roles and profiles) ?
Thanks for your input.

2. I have choosen CRM_ORDER
3. I have then click on "Condition Configuration (Transportable Conditions)
4. There are many entries related to the Support and Service Desk

Serial for Adobe Customization Wizard XI for Adobe Reader?

Hi,
I am searching for some help with the Adobe Customization Wizard XI with Adobe Reader. I allready have an approvement from Adobe for Adobe Reader and Runtime Software Distribution but i am still missing the serial number to be put into the corresponding field that allows me to customize the Adobe Reader Installer. Any Idea where i can find this?

unfortunately this is not the case

Issues with setting "Maked Reader the default PDF viewer" with Adobe Customization Wizard XI

I am using the Adobe Customization Wizard XI. I have set the following options in the Adobe Customization Wizard.
Personalization Options
Enabled the checkbox for Suppress display of End User License Agreement (EULA)
Installation Options
Selected the radio button for Make Reader the default PDF viewer
Run Installation: selected radio button Silently(No Interface)
Security
Enhanced Security Settings - Clicked drop down and set value to Disable
Online Services and Features
Checked Disable product updates
Checkd In Adobe Reader, disable Help > Purchase Adobe Acrobat
Checked Disable Product Improvement Program
Checked Disable Viewing of PDF with Ads for Adobe PDF
Checked Disable all Adobe online services based workflows and entry points.
I have tried to deploy the MSI with MST via GPO and Command Line with no luck. Every time i deploy via below methods, the same result occurs, all of the options are set correctly except the "Make Reader the default PDF viewer". I know how to manually set this option via Windows or Adobe interfaces but i am looking to roll this out to the masses and would not want a bunch of service desk calls because a user clicks on an Adobe PDF file and it is not opening in Adobe Reader.
GPO
Create New Package Use AcroRead.msi
Choose Advanced
Deployment Options - Click Uninstall this application when it falls out of the scope of management.
Modifications - Select Transform file located in the folder of MSI
Command Line.
Tried these options to try and apply "Make Reader the default PDF viewer"
msiexec /i "<path>\AcroRead.msi" TRANSFORMS="<path>\TransformFile.mst"
msiexec /i "<path>\AcroRead.msi" TRANSFORMS="<path>\TransformFile.mst" /qn
msiexec /i "<path>\AcroRead.msi" IW_DEFAULT_VERB=Read
msiexec /i "<path>\AcroRead.msi" TRANSFORMS="<path>\TransformFile.mst" IW_DEFAULT_VERB=Read /qn
Anyone know how to make this setting work with the Transform file, i sure would appreciate assistance on this issue.

Instead of saving as a PDF thru Work do a Print ➙ PDF ➙ Save as PDF and it will be saved the first time with the Preview icon.

Adobe Reader 8.2 not working on Adobe Customization Wizard 8

I tried creating a transform file from Adobe Reader 8.2 using Adobe Customization Wizard 8. However, the tool won't generate the transform and is looking for Setup.ini.
I looked again at the installer that I got and it is now a single msi file unlike the previous releases which is a compressed Setup.exe that I used to decompress and get the msi, cab file and the setup.ini.
Anyone know how to get the compressed Setup.exe version of Adobe Reader 8.2 or how will it work with the Adobe Customization Wizard 8?

Thanks for the reply.
Since I have previous deployment of the application, I just edited the old Setup.ini that I have. here's what I edited:
[Product]
msi=AdbeRdr820_en_US.msi --> this is the part that that customization wizard is looking for and should be the same name as the msi installer.
We are using Marimba for deployment, The Customization Wizard helps a lot in generating the transforms that I need for Adobe Reader.

Adobe Customization Wizard X doesn't set Adobe Reader X to be default when customizing Acrobat X

I've recently started working with Adobe Customization Wizard X.
I've got Adobe Reader X customized and it's already installed all computers. Now, I'm working on customizing Adobe Acrobat X. During the customization, I only have the following 2 options:
1. Installer will decide which product will be the default
2. Make Acrobat the default PDF viewer
Choosing the 1st option, makes Acrobat as the default PDF viewer. In other words, I don't get an option to keep Adobe Reader X as the default on the existing computer.
Found a blog in Adobe site which suggests running Adobe Reader installation again after Acrobat is installed. Although it works, it just isn't a good solution (my opinion).
http://blogs.adobe.com/pdfitmatters/2011/03/installing-acrobat-x-and-reader-x-on-the-same- machine.html
Can you advise what're the registry setting that I can set during the Acrobat X customization so that it doesn't become the default PDF viewer.

Parvez

Hi Ben,
Here's what I am trying to accomplish I had Acrobat Standard v10.1.4 scripted so I can deploy it to a Citrix Server (XENAPP6) via SCCM 2007 I have at least 50 licenses of Acrobat Standard deployed to 50 users. All of our Citrix Servers have Adobe Reader v10.* installed as our default pdf viewer. There are other apps that are deployed to this Citrix Server and I wanted to make sure that pdf files open on Adobe Reader instead of Acrobat Standard.
I had to change the installer tables directly so I don't have to get it re-scripted to use this command line. Is it a best practice not to change the isntaller table?
msiexec /i "\\source\Acrobat10\AcroStan.msi" transforms="\\source\Acrobat10\AcroStan.mst" LEAVE_PDFOWNERSHIP=”YES” /qb /norestart
Thanks a lot for your help I'm looking forward to hear from you.

Adobe Customization Wizard 9 and acrobat reader

Im trying to customise the acrobat reader with the Customization Wizard 9 and even if set some option like disable the check for update even after deploying the msi the option still there i also try to disable the EULA when you first start the program neither ..... still apear the first time i start acrobat reader
Thanks

As you are installing Adobe Reader 9 over Acrobat 8 then you need not worry about checking those greyed out options.
When you will install Adobe Reader 9, the Reder setup will not uninstall any previous Acrobat 8 version on it own.
So, you can go ahead and install Reader without worrying about these options. The Reader setup will only prompt during installation that whether to make Reader or Acrobat 8 the default viewer of PDF files.
These options have only been provided for the situation when, say, Acrobat 9 is being installed over Acrobat 8, then it gives the user an option to choose whether to remove previous version of Acrobat or not. Because newer Acrobat versions remove previous Acrobat versions before installation, which is not possible with the Reader setup.
That said, please note that it is not recommended to use Reader and Acrobat on the same machine, Adobe doesn't recommend this.

Remove previous versions of Reader greyed out in Adobe Customization Wizard 9

Hi everyone. I'm trying to make an SMS pushable custom MSI with the Adobe Customization Wizard 9, to roll out Acrobat Reader 9 to all my PCs. The big reason i wanted to use the ACW9 was so I could force it to uninstall all the old versions of Reader on my computers, which i have a lot of different versions of 7 and 8 out there. When I go to the screen in ACW9, the option to remove previous versions of Reader is greyed out and unchecked, and the rmeove previous versions of Acrobat is greyed out and checked (which is what i dont want to do). Any ideas how to get this to work right? I have both older versions of Reader and Acrobat Pro on my computer i'm using to build it, so it isn't that.

It doesn't seem Adobe really cares about supporting IT personnel. Thanks for a tool that doesn't work properly and you provide no support for.
What I've found is that it will remove previous Acrobat reader versions! So it's not harmless when that option is checked and greyed out.
