Adobe docs in Lion 10.7.2

I would like to find out how to open PDF docs with 10.7.2.
I have installed Reader a couple of times but still get the "black screen," when opening Apple pdf. docs.
Unable to download, error message.
Is there a way to view PDF docs in Lion?

David (I'm a big fan, didn't know you were a mac user... ), it sounds like you have a different issue that could be a corrupt file or a bum install. If Preview won't even open, I'd be inclinded to reinstall the OS (you can do this without losing your personal data) by restarting your mac and holding down 'Command-R'.
Choose 'reinstall Lion' from the menu. You will need to be connected to the internet while you do this.

Adobe Reader does not work-how to use adobe reader on Lion

I was trying to print an international label on eBay via Adobe Reader, and was very dissapointed and shocked that it does not work on Lion.
I was so happy that I figured out how to use adobe reader on Lion, and hope I can help anyone else who is frusterated too.
Step 1. Download Google Chrome
Step 2. Printe your international label, or whatever you need to do that uses Adobe Reader

Thanks Shelly! I too was having trouble and thought it was something wrong with my Mac. I still have a big though. When I try to print the saved pdf file, I get a pop-up that says "The document could not be printed. There are no selected pages to print" even though I am looking at the complete doc. It's there and in my print prompt "all pages" are selected to print. The way I got around this, is by emailing the pdf file to a gmail address and viewing the attachment via Google Docs. It loads perfectly and prints without a problem.

Where is explanation of variable substitution for localization files in Adobe docs???

It's odd, I was looking over the live docs about localization in Flex and no where did I see any mention of how you could substitute variables dyanmically? For example maybe in English I want "Welcome Rick!" but in some other language I want "Rick, Welcome!" (where "rick" as name is the dynamic portion.)
After many google searches I found this helpful post on another site: http://soenkerohde.com/2008/07/flex-localization/
That describes how you could do it, but shouldn't this be in the docs somewhere? Can someone point me to the adobe doc page that I'm missing. It's probably covered in some other area other than localization, but I'm not finding it.
Thanks

Hello Carme,
I have not found a solution for this type of event.
I was attempting this because the FTP site I was connecting to would DELETE a file the moment XI touched it. So when XI (using FTP Transfer protocol) configured with a DELETE or ARCHIVE (Processing Mode), it would error off because the file was no longer on the FTP site. I contacted the site but they refused to deactivate their script to auto-delete files. Using TEST processing mode is not recommended per SAP in a server pool environment. You would think SAP XI would provide a fourth option in which a DELETE command is not issued back to the FTP site.
The FTP site did have sub-directories in which copies of the original files were stored, but I could not figure out how to dynamically change the XI Source Directory as the current date changed.
I settled on using File NFS (Transfer Protocol) and running the FTP commands from a .bat (batch file). I put the command I run down at the bottom of the XI page with a 60 second timeout.
I still do not change to each folder dynamically because the standard FTP (GET and MGET) commands do not attempt a Delete after file retrieval.
Perhaps using a batch file is an option you may want to consider using.
Cheers,
Ralph

My adobe docs will no longer open in Reader...when I click on them they automatically open in web browser, however, I cannot view them on the browser either...help!

All of my adobe docs now show up as white items instead of the regular red pdf doc they used to show up as. When I double click on the pdf doc, it opens in the web browser, however, I cannot view the doc from the browser either.

When I close an Adobe doc I get a message that it has stoped working and a error msg

When I close an Adobe doc I get a message that it has stoped working and a error msg - The instruction at 0x7734464a referenced memory at 0x00000010. The memory could not be read. This is very annoying. Word 2010 does almost the same thing.
Please help!

I found the file but when I added it to the list for the Data Execution Program to ignore , I received a message that the Program.x86/itunes file must have the DEP on in order to run. Anyone else having this problem ?

Will I be able to open my 2004 word docs in Lion using Pages? How about Powerpoint using Keynote?

You can't.
The components of MS Office 2004 (which includes Word 2004) are PowerPC apps. In order to run PowerPC apps in Snow Leopard and earlier on an Intel Mac required the assistance of Rosetta software. Lion does not support Rosettta, so such apps can not be used in Lion.
In order to use your documents in Lion, you will need to -
• update the apps to a current version, ones which do work in Lion
• migrate the docs to other compatible apps which do run in Lion, such as Pages.

How do I view word docs on lion?

How do I view word docs on lion? I just downloaded Lion in order to get icloud to work and am hating it so far. It's super slow, my address book keeps freezing and now I can't access my word files. Any advise out there?

TextEdit will open Word documents.
For the problems you are otherwise describing I recommend:
Reinstalling Lion Without the Installer
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alterhatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

Is it safe to use adobe flash with lion

Is it sfae to use adobe flash with lion on my macbook?

Note that fake Flash installers are a common way to sneak malware into your system, and there's one going around right now called Flashback. Because of this, never ever ever click a link like the one Kappy gave you! Now, Kappy is trustworthy... but it's still always the safest bet to go to the Adobe web site directly. Type "www.adobe.com" into your browser's address bar, then click the Downloads link on the Adobe site, rather than clicking a link that takes you anywhere else.

Embedded html links in adobe docs on Playbook?

Does anyone know if when you view an Adobe doc that contains embedded html links if clicking on the links will work? On all other tablets I've tried it on other tablets and it doesn't work so before I buy a Playbook I'd like to know if this works.
Tks

Here is a link to a test PDF,http://www.dallasmobility.org/agenda_packets.asp
just click on one of the agenda packet PDFs, when the PDF opens you'll see links to additional documents, obviously the Playbook would have to either connected to WiFi or using the Bridge to a BlackBerry that is online, thanks for the offer of help
Merci

Printing adobe doc suddenly stopped

Within the last week or so, I suddenly can't print adobe docs. When I select print, a dialogue box appears saying cannot print, then upon hitting ok, another box appears saying could not print because 'there were no pages selected to print". I have tried everything and even did system restore. I have made no changes or have done anything that would explain why suddenly I am having this problem. I want to be able to print, but it would also be nice to know what caused this.

In the applicable product forum, you can start a New Discussion (post), from the main page. See this illustration:
Hope that helps, and that you also get some helpful responses. If you still have issues, just PM either Jacob, or me (going out of town for 4 days), and we'll Move your thread to the product forum, that applies.
Good luck,

Edit adobe docs?

Hi.
I'm a beginner. Don't know Adobe version I have, but I can't edit (cut/paste) adobe docs.
I'm told an Adobe version has "advanced editing" in tools to provide this fu
nction. Which version do I need??
Thanks!

Gees, couldn't even tell you.
The particular doc I'm looking at is in:
https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/index.shtml
(https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/index.shtml)
Under: "Get the PCI DSS" (on left). Must then accept terms. It is the
English PDF version 1.2
Thanks!

Non NVidia graphics card issues with Adobe and Mountain Lion

It took me a while to figure it out, but now I am certain. If using a Mac with a non nvidia graphics card there will be issues in Mountain Lion while using Adobe products. I tested this with Illustrator CS6 for over a year on 5 different Mac computers.
Here is what happens
As soon as I open Illustrator on a Mac without a NVidia graphics card and I attend to apply an shadow effect, Illustrator crashes. If I do this procedure on a Mac with a NVidia inside, all works well.
I tested this on the following Macs
MacBook Pro (Early 2009) with NVidia 9600M GT - it works
MacBook Pro (Early 2011) with Radeon 6750M - doesn't work
Mac Pro (Early 2009) with Radeo HD 5770 - doesn't work
The same Mac Pro (Early 2009) with NVidia GT120 - it works
MacBook Air (Mid 2012) with Intel HD 4000 - doesn't work
iMac (Late 2012) with NVidia 680MX - it works
Since I owned all these Macs, I could test it several times with different kind of software updates. 10.8, 10.8.1, 10.8.2 and 10.8.3 did deliver the same result. Everytime the same result.
Already got in touch with Adobe
With Illustrator CS5 it worked like a charme, so I assumed it could be an Adobe issue. But Adobe support told me, it's Apple's fault since 10.8 uses different processes for the graphics performance.
What can be done, to resolve this issue? I cannot buy only Macs with NVidia inside, since the small portable front of Macs is only coming with Intel graphics cards. And is there anybody out there, having this issue? I cannot be the only one, using shadows in Illustrator.

A typical response. IMO it's most likely a combination of Adobe's reluctance to fix the issue combined with Apple's desire for advancement and change. I've personally experienced several things that've become broken owing to Apple changing fundamental aspects of the OS, and the developers of the third-party software in question have either never fixed their software, or are taking their sweet time. WireTap Studio and Snapz Pro from Ambrosia are a case in point, though they eventually fixed Snapz Pro. Eventually…
Frankly, good luck getting either side to do anything about this. Your best bet is probably getting in touch with AppleCare and seeing if you can get this escalated to Engineering, but I wouldn't hold your breath for a fix from either party. Or perhaps one of the Apple mailing lists will prove useful.

If i upgrade from pages 2.0.2 to pages 4.1 will i be able to open older word docs on lion

Before I buy pages 4.1 I was just checking that I be able to open older word docs, since installing lion we have not been able to open older word docs. Many Thanks

Test by yourself with the documents which you wish to open.
Dowload the free 30 days trial iWork from :
http://www.apple.com/iwork/download-trial/
install it,
apply the updaters then test it during 30 days.
An other scheme which costs nothing is to download the free LibreOffice.

Hidden network drives "home" and "net" shown in folder view Adobe Bridge CS5 / Lion Problem

Updated to Mac OS X 10.7.2 Lion and got this "problem":
The hidden network drives "home" and "net" shown in folder view Adobe Bridge CS5 (unlike in 10.6 Snow Leopard).
Normally these network drives are hidden (in Finder and other Apps) - but Adobe Bridge CS5 is showing them, despite "show hidden files" is unchecked in Adobe Bridge.
Not a dramatic "bug", but it also shouldn't be a big problem for Adobe Bridge engineers to solve this. My first question to the Adobe Support was answered like: "we don't know what Apple did change, so we cannot do anything". Hmmm, are you serious?
I tried to resolve that problem by myself but failed. So, if an Adobe engineer is reading this post: perhaps Adobe Bridge is ignoring the automounter master map (that was my approach to resolve it):
# Automounter master map
+auto_master                    # Use directory service
/net           -hosts                 -nobrowse,hidefromfinder,nosuid
/home                                        auto_home       -nobrowse,hidefromfinder
/Network/Servers               -fstab
/-                              -static
You cannot do anything to these folders, so it is not a serious issue, but, I mean, did someone at Adobe check compatibiliy with 10.7 and ignored this issue? If so, are there an other issues ignored?
But I guess, the compatibilty update for Bridge CS5 for Lion is Bridge CS6 - to be fair: I also have to say, that in general Bridge is running okay on Mac OS X 10.7.2 (but could be better, as always;)

Hi Curt Y,
thanks for your answer! Yes you' re right, I forgot to mention that ... before I posted here, I sent a bug report via the Apple Bug Report webpage about the issue ... of course, here are 2 parties involved.
I had a similiar problem once and I got a meesage back from Apple: "that it is a 3rd party problem, sorry" (it was about color management).
I am just a user and I often feel very strange about Apple's (topsecret) communication behaviour ... Whatever, what do I know about software engineering? - Right.
Maybe someone on this forum has an idea, because I'm afraid, thus it is not a serious bug, no one would take care about it in the next time (during my research I found an older post here on the forum about the same problem ...).
thanks for help in advance,
jobumac
