Adobe Reader 11.0 won't install through firefox - click save and then nothing else happens

Adobe Reader 11.0 won't install through firefox - I click save file when requested it switches to Step 2 of 3 but nothing is there and I have waited for a very long time for it to load.  Anyone else have this problem?

Hi Pat,
After your last email I decided to continue to trouble shoot the problem and finally found the answer from another user.  Oddly enough when using Firefox it will default to a location on your computer to save downloads.  If it encounters a problem it doesn't identify it, the program just "loops" back to the start of the download sequence.  Once I changed the folder that the downloads are sent to the original way of upgrading occurred without fault.
I will go back into the discussion group and credit you with the answer because I really appreciate your assistance.
Thank you, Jim

  • Adobe Reader plugin(Acrobat) won't install and Update in FF4

    if I try to open FF4 and go to a pdf file Adobe Reader 10 will open then freeze FF4... I then went to Plugin check.. says Adobe Acrobat needs an Update.. I d/l it 3x.. still comes up as needing an upadate after restarting FF4... it just won't take it as a plugin..
    I can't open pdf files anymore.. either FF4 is the culprit --I d/l it last month.. or the Adobe 10 update is...
    any help appreciated..

    Thank you for the video.
    The video shows the App Store app that is trying to download and install Adobe Reader for iOS.  Adobe Reader for iOS is not even launched at the point.  Once we (the Adobe Reader Mobile team) upload a new version of Adobe Reader to the App Store, Apple takes care of the installation & updates of the app (and all other iOS apps) for users.
    I just uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader for iOS version 11.6.3 on my iPad running iOS 8.1 but could not reproduce the problem.  I suspect that your iPad is in inconsistent state with regard to app updates.
    Here are a couple of things that you could try.
    Go to the iOS Settings > General > Usage > Managed Storage.
    If you see Adobe Reader, tap to go to the next screen.  This is to ensure that Adobe Reader is completely uninstalled from your iPad.  If you do not see Adobe Reader in the list, skip the rest of the steps.
    Tap Delete App to uninstall it.
    Go back to the App Store to download and install Adobe Reader again.
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    Since this is an Apple App Store problem, you would have a better chance of getting answers by asking the question in the Apple support forum.

  • ADOBE reader for ipad won't install

    I had adobe reader on my ipad for at least a year. Have a subscription to the pdf to word doc conversion. Adobe pushed an update on Oct 9. I tried to install it a lot of times, but it always hanged. So today I have figured I will just delete the app and install it again. Well, that hasn't solved it either. The install also hangs. Is this a bug? I have an ipad 4, rocking iOS 8.1.

  • Adobe Reader 9.1 won't install or uninstall

    I updated to the new adobe reader 9.1 and got "Error 1606. Could not access network location %APPDATA5\." I have Windows Vista Home Premium.  It gives this and also message "internal error found" and at times closes my IE.  I tried to uninstall and got the same error.  Any ideas on how to resolve this?

    Download, install, and run Windows Installer CleanUp Utility; remove all versions of Adobe Reader, then try again.

  • Trying to fix - Acrobat won't close after user clicks attach and then emails.

    I'm totally stumped, so any input may help. Here' s the scenario... User creates/opens PDF. They then go to either attach dialog which then opens Outlook email dialog. They finish emailing the attachment and switch back to the Adobe window to close it. Upon clicking the usual red "X" on Windows 7, nothing happens. Alt-F4 doesn't work neither, neither does Ctrl-W to close the document. Adobe isn't really "frozen" because I can go to File->Properties just fine and the dialog opens. It seems to be isolated to closing the app.
    Update: It only happens after sending and the outlook window autocloses. I don't think Acrobat is aware of the email window closing, but is waiting for it to close. I tried to close the Adobe window while the new email window was still there and Adobe kicks me back to it. If I close the email and don't send then I can close Adobe. If I send, and the window autocloses, then Adobe window will not let me close.
    10.1.6 Seems working on another system. Is there a way to roll back?

    Try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot and try again.
    How are you charging it? its's best charged plugged into the wall  not via USB. So if you're trying via USB, try using the supplied power block plugged into the wall.

    Well, you're not telling us anything, that's the problem. No offense, but really, just saying that something doesn't work is not gonna yield any answers that would help.

  • Adobe reader updater is ready to install but won't -- need help

    adobe reader  updater is ready to install but gets stuck on step 2 -- need help

    It's OK.  I finally got Reader XI installed.  But once installed, the program would then lock up and show an error message whenever I tried  to open any of my existing PDF docs.  So I finally just gave up and deleted Reader XI from my system.  Fortunately, my existing version of Reader seems to work just fine.  Maybe I'll try again later after Adobe has worked out the kinks with Reader XI.  But thanks anyway for responding--no further help needed now.  I'm out.

  • Adobe Reader 9.4  won't allow saving-copying-printing of data entered into form fields.

    Hello, all.  I own a fully automated Continuing Education website with a national customer base.  The release of Adobe Reader 9.4 has brought a major problem for us which we haven't been able to overcome, and it's a critical issue which will destroy our business if the problem continues. 
    The problem:  Our professionally licensed website users earn online, instantly downloadable Continuing Education certificates in PDF file format, which are auto-generated by our software program when the user has successfully completed a course and its quiz.
    Each certificate is a template created by Adobe Acrobat Pro 6 which contains the boilerplate course goals, credit hours earned for the course, plus all of our educational approval numbers needed to conduct business in each state.  THE PROBLEM HERE is that these generated certificates ALSO have form fields which are auto-completed by our system when the user successfully completes his or her course - i.e., the user's name, his license number, and the date and hour and minute of completion.  Until some of our customers began to use Adobe Reader 9.4 on their PC this past week, the certificate generation process has performed flawlessly - for over 3 years now, for over a thousand customers - the only exception being the  occasional MAC user who needs to download the correct version of Adobe Reader, and to use the correct browser. 
    Beginning last week, site users who have downloaded 9.4 can no longer SAVE their Continuing Education certificates to their computer with their name, license and date and time of completion showing on the certificate.   And they can't even print the certificate correctly - their name, license, and date of completion appear as blank lines.  They can't download or email the certificate with the critical form field data showing on the document. This is a devastating situation for our business and for the users - who certainly won't return, and are demanding refunds. 
    In fact, I (who installed 9.4 last week) discovered that I can't even download and save an intact copy of a customer's certificate from my own website, OR copy and paste information from a client's generated certificate in order to manually create a certificate for him or her.  The on-screen message tells me that I am not allowed to do this with this document .... despite the fact that I was the creator of the document. Needless to say, when I un-installed 9.4, I had none of these problems.
    Customers wouldn't have problems either if they uninstalled 9.4 - but you can't tell customers who call in to complain, to uninstall their Adobe Reader program and find something else.  They also have to use Adobe Reader to view over half of the courses we offer, and they need to be able to work with them effectively with no problems. 
    In the past, because of occasional Adobe Reader problems of a different sort, we could tell customers to use Foxit or Nitro PDF if they had Adobe issues.  But that was back in the day when there was no competition in running an online CE website.  Now there is plenty of competition, and customers will just go elsewhere before they will try to reconfigure their computer just to stay with our site.
    I will bet that hundreds (thousands?) of other online businesses who work with system-generated form fields in PDF documents have been similarly affected.   
    Is there a solution here?  Surely this was an UNINTENDED result of  Adobe's upgrade to 9.4.   Is there something that we can do at our end to eliminate these issues?  There are NO security protections or limitations imposed on these certificate documents.  And we CANNOT eliminate the form fields that are filled internally when the customer passes t the course.  Date and time of completion and all the rest are required by all of the States which license us.  Many thanks!

    That was it!
    Thanks

  • I have the Mac OS 10.9.4  I am unable to read PDF's, so thought I would download the latest version of Adobe Reader.  It will not install.  Is it comparable with my Mac OS?

    I have the Mac OS 10.9.4  I am unable to read PDF's, so thought I would download the latest version of Adobe Reader.  It will not install.  Is it comparable with my Mac OS?

    More information would be good.
    What do you mean by "unable to read PDF's". How are you trying to read them and what exactly happens when you try?
    so thought I would download the latest version of Adobe Reader.  It will not install. 
    Again, what exactly is happening?
    And yes, the latest version should be compatible with your OS.

    Are you launching Pages from an icon in your Dock? Installing the update does not change the Dock icons & it does not remove the older versions. Go to your Applications folder & launch the new Pages from there.

  • I have a Leopard DL disk & bought an external CD drive, but I read that I can't install through USB?

    I also have a Leopard DL disk and having the same problem with my eMac. I bought an external CD drive, but I read that I can't install through USB. Why is that? Would a USB A female to FireWire IEEE 1394 6P converter work? Or do I have to buy another CD drive with a FireWire? Please help.
    PS
    Can you also please explain how to boot from an external drive? (CD drive and storage device). Is there even a way to save the disks content to an external memory device and install it from there?

    Hi,
    Very few PPC Macs can boot from USB, most require Firewire... BUT, all 3 of my eMacs can & do boot from USB, try holding the alt or option key at bootup.
    A USB<->FW converter will not work.

  • Cannot install new adobe reader- says old version still installed

    Hi there, looking for a little help please.  An old version of adobe reader, 7.1 shows as installed on this computer so when I try and install a new version it gives me an error.  When I try to uninstall it via the windows add/remove programs, it says that it can't uninstall.  How can I get adobe reader 7.1 out of my system?  If I need to edit the registry to get it out of there, what changes need to be made?
    Thanks.
