Adobe Reader 10.1.2 error message

I"m using an iMac OS 10.7.3 and Adobe Acrobat 10.1.2.  When I attempt to open an internet-downloaded Microsoft dmg installer I get the error message:  "There was a error opening this document.  This file could not be found."  Both Apple and MS techs are stumped.  Any suggestions?

I will try this.  Thanks. 
It strikes me that I should first "uninstall" the 2 A/R apps I have on my computer before I try to install the one downloaded from the site you suggest.  However, I could find no "uninstaller" associated with either of these now resident A/R apps.  Is there something in particular I need to do to uninstall these?
As to your comment about a MS installer for Mac OS, the installer pertains to MS wireless keyboard 2000 that is Mac compatible.  And as to why this somehow incorporates Adobe Reader I can only speculate that there's a document that has to be opened in the installation process and it is this "opening" that is getting hung up.

  • I am unable to print PDF's using either Adobe Reader or Safari. In Adobe Reader, I get an error message from my Cannon printer that says, "/usr.libexec/cups/filter/pstocupsraster failed". In Safari, I can only print the first page of a PDF.

    To try to resolve this problem, I have done the following actions.
    1 - I have run Disk Warrior.
    2 - I have repaired permissions.
    3 - I have deleted all plist that are either Cannon or Adobe.
    4 - I have downloaded and installed the lastest versions of Adobe Reader and the Cannon printer drivers.
    I am still unable to print PDF's.
    In Safari, I can print only the first page. In a multipage PDF, Safari only seems to recognize the first page.

    local machine and tried to install

    Seriously, I do not understand what is going on - I have never seen this before!
    The MSI installers are usually used in corporate environments to roll out installs on multiple machines.  However, you can use it like a normal (EXE) installer; it will just go through fewer steps than the EXE.  Not sure if it will improve the situation, but it's worth a try.
    Another thing to try is to uninstall these remaining entries using Microsoft Fixit: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall - also no guarantee, but also worth trying.

  • When I tried to update Adobe reader, I got an error message

    When the update for Adobe Reader started automatically, the error it gave me at the end was something like " Failed to write to C:/..." something. Please tell me what to do.

    I am sorry for posting the incorrect link; it should have been http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    To clarify my instructions
    download the cleaner tool from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html and save it to disk (e.g. your Download folder)
    unzip the file
    download the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ and save it to disk
    right-click on the extracted cleaner tool AdbeArCleaner_v2.exe and select Run as Administrator
    right-click on the downloaded installer and select Run as Administrator
    Don't hesitate to ask if there are still things unclear.

  • 'Adobe Reader has stopped working' error message

    I've recently updated from Adobe Reader X to Adobe Reader XI using Adobe Cleaner and installer from the website. Whenever I open a pdf file or start the Reader the following error occurs and closes the program: 'Adobe Reader has stopped working'. This message would never occur when I had version X. Moreover, it doesn't occur in any other program I use so far. I've disabled Protected Mode and run Eula.exe, but that didn't help. Here are some details from the event log

    What's the name of the file you are attempting to open?  Is it "ScreenFlow_4.5.2.dmg"?  If it is the correct name then the message is correct and you are attempting to open a file with DMG files extension and not one with a PDF file extension.  Adobe Reader opens PDF files an not any other file type.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if iTunes crashed, you would enter "iTunes" (without the quotes.)
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    ☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    ☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, select
    DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    ☞ If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    ☞ Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

    Hi chasore,
    Are you still facing this issue?
    Is this issue happening with all the documents you have. If yes, i would suggest try uninstall and reinstall. Or if the documents are located on some shared drive try to copy them on local machine and test again.
