Adobe Reader 11.0.04 incompatible with Windows 7

Downloaded Adobe Reader 11.0.04 it is incapatible with Windows 7 professional (64 bit).  When starting the program, it  will open for about 2-3 seconds then closes.  unable to access the edit tab or other tabs to change settings.  already tried with and without anti-virus installed and uninstalled so it is in conflict with Windows 7.
also tried the fix capatibility menu with no luck.
Any ideas on how to fix?

Hi,
It seems you have issues with Reader launch. Which version did you have earlier?
Please try updating Reader to latest 11.0.05.

Do you have NVIDIA driver on your machine? If yes, Please try upgrading it to latest via link below
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/update-drivers-recommended-links#update-drivers -recommended-links=windows-7
If that is not the case, then please try this adding this registry
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\Privileged]
"bProtectedMode"=dword:00000000
It will disable the protected mode and then try launching Reader
Note: You should switch "ON" protected mode after verifying the problem. Purpose of Reader XI Protected Mode is to keep your system safe from PDF based exploits and keeping protected mode OFF will leave your system vulnerable.

    What do I need to do when a website sends me a message that my adobe reader 7 is not compatable with windows 8?

    Are you using Adobe Reader 7 on Windows 8? If so, the message is probably correct and you should download the latest version of Adobe Reader (which is XI).
    If you already have Reader XI, maybe you can give us some more details about where you are at and what you are doing when you get this message.

    I am using Adobe Reader X on a laptop with Windows Vista OS and Adobe Reader XI on an older laptop with Windows XP OS.  While filling out the same form on each computer, I have found that I can save info on the older laptop, but not on the newer one.  This is a big problem.  I must be able to save on the newer computer.  Do I need to buy a new computer with a more up-to-date OS?  Please help.

    Adobe Reader X can only save reader-enabled forms. Adobe Reader XI can save all forms.

  • Adobe acrobat version 6.0 incompatible with Windows 7?

    I am trying to download Adobe Acrobat 6.0 standard, and I am getting an error message that it is incompatible with my Windows 7 laptop.  Is there a way around this, or do I simply need to upgrade to a later version of Adobe Acrobat?  If so, which later version(s) do you recommend?

    The only version you can buy today is XI (11.0).

  • Adobe Reader v8.1.2 Compatible with Windows XP Pro SP3

    I need to know if Adobe Reader v8.1.2 is compatible with Windows XP Pro SP3.
    Thank you.

    I've been using Reader without any problems until yesterday when administrator installed Windows XP SP3. When I do a <Ctrl-P> to print, it takes about 30 to 90 seconds for the print requester to pop up. The program is locked up and not responding during the delay, although it does NOT say "Not Responding" in the title bar.<br /><br />While the delay is going, the SysInternals Process Explorer shows but fleeting milliseconds of Kernel or User time being used. Setting the priority from 8 to 13 made no improvement at all.<br /><br />I frequently print from the Reader and the delay drives me nuts! This hang-up needs to be corrected ASAP.<br /><br />I am sure it is a Reader incompatibility because it never happened before the SP3 update, the program is hung and doing nothing and everything works perfectly before and after the <Ctrl-P> is entered.<br /><br />Word or Excel do not experience similar problems. I just tried Notepad, and it sometimes hangs the same way but not nearly as long - maybe 10 seconds at the most and only the first time. After the first delay it pops right up. Adobe Reader hangs a long time every time.<br /><br />Any idea if Adobe is going to fix it or even knows the problem exists? Do they moderate or monitor complaints like this here or elsewhere?<br /><br />I don't want to think they know about it and are fixing it if they aren't.

  • The email feature in adobe reader XI does not work with windows 7

    When I try to attach a PDF directly to an email from within Reader, my gmail login screen flashes briefly and then disappears without allowing me to enter my password (and therefore will not connect to my webmail/gmail)

    Hmmm - I do not even get to the Gmail page; all I get is
    ...and I do not know where to specify a password for my Gmail account.
    I will do some more testing later, but for now I have to go out for a while.
    P.S. someone else had the same problem one month ago, but it remains unsolved: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1274056

  • Adobe Photoshop Incompatible with Windows 7 ?

    I typically do not have problems installing Microsoft products, Corel products, HP products, AV software, dozens of other companies products on my Windows 7 Home Premium computer. I have never had problems installing Adobe products on ME, XP, Vista. However, every recent Adobe product I have purchased have failed to install on Windows 7 Home Premium and it typically takes support several hours to fix, if it can be fixed at all. It involves creating new accounts, disabling services, disabling the UAC, doing partial restarts (I did not even know those existed) and normal restarts, etc (I do have administrative rights on my account(s)).
    Today I was working with customer support (taking control of my desktop). We did not succeed to install Adobe Photoshop Elements 9.
    During the installation a windows dialog box was displayed which stated that the Adobe installation .exe file was incompatible with Windows UAC.
    There is clearly something wrong with the Adobe installer because Adobe products are the only products that cannot be installed.
    Why is it so difficult tp install Adobe products on a Windows 7 system?
    Does anyone know what is going on?
    Is the Adobe installer really incompatible with Windows 7 as the Windows dialog box stated?
    Thomas

    Thank you for your help all three of you,
    I finally succeeded to install.
    I was using the downloaded version (not the DVD), I should have mentioned that. I did two things. I turned off the UAC (as suggested) and I moved the installation files from my user account folder where they were placed by default (I initially just accepted the default). The user account was protected despite my administrative rights, which is why install using setup.exe in the user account location failed. I have a feeling that I would not have had to turn off the UAC or move the files out of the user account folder if I had run as administrator. I'll remember that next time. It is funny customer support did not see this.
    Anyway, now it is installed

  • Adobe Reader incompatible with Windows Internet Explorer 9

    I recently installed the update for Windows Internet Eexplorer 9 on my laptop (Vista Home Premium) and have installed the latest Adobe Reader as well.
    After installing Windows IE 9 I found that I was not able to view any letters etc online where Adobe Reader was required.
    I tried all the suggestions in the associated help screen to no avail, so I finally 'uninstalled'  the Windows I E 9 update and magically I was once again able to view online letters etc.
    I am wondering why the latest Adobe Reader is incompatible with Windows I E 9?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Judith Matthews [email address removed by host]

    I believe IE9 is not supported with Reader9, but everything should work as usual. I have both on my machine and am able to use them without any problem.
    Try repairing Reader from Programs in Control Panel.
    Kindly refer to System Requirement section in http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/837/cpsid_83708/attachments/Acrobat_Reader_ReleaseNote_9.5.pdf

    I cannot open a pdf file with aol e-mail. I went to preferences in Adobe Reader but did not know what to enter for Incoming IMAP and outgoing SMTP. I can open pdf files from windows explorer as  I have associated .pdf files with adobe reader. My operating system is windows 7.

  • PPro 1.5 incompatible with Windows 7

    I just upgraded laptops and have been eager to continue editing with Premiere Pro 1.5.  However, the program will not upload and gets stuck during the initialization process at GPUPagecurl.aex.  Is version 1.5 incompatible with Windows 7 and if so, is there a fix/patch?
    Laptop specs:  i7 chip  8G Ram  dual quad processor @1.6 Ghz  1.6 Ghz and 64bit OS

    Personal aside - I feel that the min. requirements are awfully low. They are basically enough to install the program, and launch it. Trying to edit anything with a min. system will be horribly painful, if even possible.
    It is good that you read of the min. system requirements. I would not attempt to go with something below those.
    Now, with about Photoshop CS, Adobe finally issued a min. video card statement for PS. It was 128MB VRAM min. I still ran PS CS for a few years on a Matrox G-450 64MB video card, without issues. Now, this is VASTLY different than CPU, RAM or HDD setup.
    Good luck, and thanks for reporting, even if it was not good news. That will very likely help others with the same question.

    It should install and it should run but, because of the age discrepancy, CS is not officially supported by Adobe on Vista.

  • 10.5.0.142 update incompatible with windows 7

    I unfortunately updated my desktop (windows 7 32 bit) and laptop (windows 7 64 bit) to itunes 10.5.0.142. Update seems incompatible with windows 7. It has slowed both computers to a crawl, even when itunes not running. Itunes functions do not work or process at a dead crawl. Cannot access the store. Cannot sync iphone. Tried reinstalling previous itunes version, but previous version can't access itunes library, giving error message: "cannot access itunes library that was created by newer version of itunes." Have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes multiple times. Have turned off all other processes to look for incompatibility, but issues remain. I am NOT PLEASED!.
