Adobe Reader 11 Silent Install
The old was appending Install Manager -install to the .app binary no longer works. I need to deploy to hundreds of Mac. Is there an updated method for this?
Look at Apple Remote Desktop or Casper for that type of client installation.

Hey everybody!
I have a program that silently installs Adobe Reader 9.4 and it works wonderfully, but when I upgrade it to install Adobe Reader X the commands I use to run it don't work properly. I get the Windows Installer help window pop up. Here's what I'm running for 9.4:
AdobeReaderInstallFile.exe /sAll /rs /l /msi "/qb-! /norestart ALLUSERS=1 EULA_ACCEPT=YES SUPPRESS_APP_LAUNCH=YES"
Does anybody know of the proper usage to get a true silent install for 10.0? Thanks in advance!Hi,
Command Line Switches for the Bootstrap Web Installer for Reader are provided below:
/sAll Silent Mode for product
/sPB Silent Mode with Progress Bar for product
/rs Reboot Suppress
/rps Reboot Prompt Suppress
/ini "PATH" Alternative initialization file
/sl "LANG_ID" Set Language; LANG_ID - Code in decimal digits
/l Enable Error Logging. Log file Bootstrap.log will be generated in temp directory
/msi[Command line] Parameters for MSIEXEC
AdobeReaderInstallFile.exe /sAll /rs /l /msi "/qb-! /norestart ALLUSERS=1 EULA_ACCEPT=YES SUPPRESS_APP_LAUNCH=YES"
This command line has parameters for both silent install (/sAll) as well as progress bar mode (/qb) which is useless. Also /rs and /norestart work the same way supressing the reboot.
SUPPRESS_APP_LAUNCH=YES can also be removed as the checkbox for suppressing the application launch after install has been removed from the installer.
Moreover the quotes are not being recognised by the MSI Installer causing it to launch help window pop up.
So the command that can be used for silent install and suppressing EULA is:
AdbeRdr_1000_en_US.exe /sAll /msi /norestart ALLUSERS=1 EULA_ACCEPT=YES -
Adobe Reader 9 Silent Install Mac OSX Leopard
When I try to install the pkg silently (I want to distribute it on all our machines) nothing seems to happen. I'm running leopard on intel.
This is what i try to do:
installer -pkg AdbeRdr90_en_US_i386.pkg -verbose -target /
this is my result:
installer: Package name is Adobe Reader 9
installer: Upgrading at base path /
installer: Preparing for installation.....
installer: Preparing the Disk.....
installer: Preparing Target Volume
installer: Preparing Adobe Reader 9.....
installer:
installer: Installing Adobe Reader 9.....
installer:
installer: Configuring Installation
installer: Validating package
installer: Writing files
installer: Writing files: 0% complete
installer: Writing files: 0% complete
installer: Running Installer Script
installer: Writing package receipt
installer: Finishing Installation.....
installer: Finishing Installation
I'm worried about the lines :
Writing files: 0% complete
Has anyone seen this problem before? When I run the install manualy so by clicking on in the finder the install just runs fine.
Many thanks in advance!
BjornHi Bjorne,
Looks like I've got the same issue, only with Flash Player 9 Silent installer on Mac OSX Leopard. Did you find a workaround?

hello,
I have adobe set up to install silently but it still asks me for username and password for the proxy. Im guessing its checking for updates during the install?
Is there anyway to disable this?

AdbeRdr90_en_US.exe /update-no /sAll /rs /l /msi"/qb-! /norestart ALLUSERS=1 EULA_ACCEPT=YES SUPPRESS_APP_LAUNCH=YES

I have used Customization Wizard to development silent install.
The computers that have Acrobat Reader 7 or previous version work ok but when I run the silent install package in a computer that have the 8 version yet a window to repair or remove appear and the silent installation finish. Then is necessary to select an option and continue.Hi,

Adobe Reader will not install to my IMac OSX 100.7.5
When I have a program open and want to download a PDF file that is when I get message to install Adobe Reader in order to print the PDF, when I try to download the Reader it either goes through the install action and says it is downloaded or it tells me the Adobe Reader is already installed. Message doesn't matter because it is not downloaded and installed. The only thing I find in my Finder download section is the Adobe Reader install download. I have tried this so many times. When I first got my Mac I downloaded the Adobe Flash Player with no problem. Any suggestions?
Ok. Thanks Mike.
It would be nice if Adobe published the correct information then.
The Flash Player page specifically shows 12.0.0.4 for Safari, FireFox and Opera. http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Correct info would have prevented a pointless waste of time. The other Flash Player test page also reports the wrong information when viewing via Safari and FF.

Why can't I open PDFs anymore and Adobe Reader won't install.
Why can't I open PDFs anymore and Adobe Reader won't install? This happens only in Safari. I have tried changing my security preferences but it doesn't help.
missyzz,
which version of OS X is installed on your Mac, and which version of Adobe Reader do you have installed? Did you ensure that all of your browsers were not running when you’d installed Adobe Reader?
To use Preview to open PDFs, download the PDFs to your Mac, and then use Preview to open the PDFs locally. Since you can open PDFs in Firefox, it sounds like you don’t need the Preview workaround. -

NEED HELP ADOBE READER WOULD NOT INSTALL. STATES "ACCESS DENIED"
ADOBE READER WOULD NOT INSTALL. STATES "ACCESS DENIED"
Hi dharamsishah,
Are you still facing this issue?
The computer you trying to get Reader installed on it. Is it your own computer or work computer?
It seems you might not have permission to install application.
You may try to create a new user profile with admin rights and then try installing again.

Do I uninstall adobe reader when I install Acrobat?
Should I uninstall adobe reader when I install Acrobat? or is there a reader program embedded in acrobat?
Hi Bill@VT,
The application installing 2nd (or later) always asks "whether the user wants to provide default PDF ownership or not" during the installation. (Please also refer to Image attached)
I would like to understand, if there is any common use case where the system decides by itself about the PDF owner when both Acrobat & Reader are installed.
Thanks.
