Adobe Reader 11 w/Windows 7 not responding

Why does Adobe Reader 11 fail to respond sometimes? Re-installing allows it to function several times then we get a "not responding" message. A plank screen is displayed and the number of pages but NO text! Using repair produces the same results. Upon 1st use of the repaired/reinstalled reader 11 we also get the adobe message "Cannot find or create the font "Times New Roman". Some characters may ot display or print correctly". The text is mostly displayed at this point. The second attempt to display the same PDF or another displays completely w/out any error message at all. At some point during the testing process Adobe Reader 11 stops working! Restarts don't help. Shutdowns don't help. Seems only a re-install or repair allows us to correctly view our PDF document a number of times before we have to repeat the process. Is help available?

Adobe Reader Print Window not legible

Adobe Reader (free) works just fine until I want to print a document. For some years now, whenever I want to print the print window comes up looking like this:
It has occurred to me that my custom color scheme may have something to do with this (but note the "8.5 x 11 Inches" text that does appear) so I have tried changing the Window Theme to Windows Classic. Doing that results in the print window looking like this:
Notice the vertical scrollbar on the right ... scrolling shows more of the print window, which has the same attributes as what we see here.
When using my normal (custom) color scheme with my personal Theme, sometimes the print window comes up looking like the 1st picture, sometimes like the second. I have not discerned any pattern or reason why it shows one way one time and the other way another time.
When either version of the print window comes up, pressing the Enter key always prints the document correctly. Similarly, If, in the first picture, if I click the left-hand button of the pair at the lower right of the window it also prints. When it comes up looking like the second picture, I have never been to find the "Print" button and have to use the Enter key. Again, however I start the printing, the document prints as it should.
This has been going on since sometime back when I was using Windows XP (before Windows 7 came out) and has continued now that I am using Windows 7. I always keep the O/S up to date with both the Service Packs and the Windows Updates. Likewise I keep the Reader up to date and installed the latest update just before taking these screenshots. I have 27" HP 2711 monitor @ its native resolution of 1920x1080.
If anyone has any ideas on how to make the print window readable, I would appreciate it. This has been an annoyance for much too long.

I had the Segoe UI Light, UI Semibold, and UI Symbol fonts installed, and 6 other Segoe fonts available, but not installed. I installed Seguo UI (only) and brought up a PDF document and tried to print ... voilà! ...
It's perfect. The picture here is a little fuzzy here due to the size reduction, but in real life, it's just the way it should be.
Thank you very much!

Adobe reader on Yosemite not responding, can't force quit, can't install new version

I am very frustrated. Adobe reader is open but is not responding. I cannot open a PDF document, I can't cause it to force quit and I can't install a new version because of he open version. I have searched discussion boards and have not seen a problem as completely non functioning as this.
Please help.

I have the exact same problem.. it was slow when trying to quit. I then would try to launch and it bounces ( I have a MacBook Pro). I try to upload photos into lightroom and it stops after about 5 photos. Now I try to quit and it won't force quit. I turned off my laptop and rebooted and lightroom us still not functioning.. It won't force quit. Help!

Adobe Reader X is not responding while dr.eye 9

Symptom:
OS is windows 7 with sp1 + Adobe Reader X 10.0.1version + Dr.eye 9.0.
When Adobe Reader X - ("Enabled protected mode" by default) and Dr.eye 9 (Install Translation is enabled) are on , they will cause Adobe Reader X error while directly opening PDF files or exploring embedded PDF websites.
We know need to disable one function - "Enabled potected mode" in Adobe Reader X but for security reason , is there any better solution or will it be fixed in next updating patches ?
Winson.

I'm having a similar problem, everytime I launch reader or if I try to open a PDF it crashes on my winxp sp3 PC with a visual c++ runtime error and closes. I can't even get to any preferences or anything in time.

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.

Adobe reader issues windows 8 Error 1935.An error occurred during the installation of assembly compo

I have tried many things to try to install it and I have been unsucessful. Please help I have windows 8 64bit.

This did not resolve my issue, it actually made things worse. I did what
you had told me to do below, and it did not work. Tried to access the
internet to respond back to you and my computer was not able to reach the
internet. Tried reaching adobe support and not was able to, even tried
calling was on the phone for 20 minutes and no one answered. I was not able
to re install windows. Contacted Asus from another computer and they were
not able to help me reinstall windows They had asked me to ship my computer
back to them, due to them not being able to resolve the issue and help me
reinstall windows. I luckily had a backup on my external hard drive and was
able to reinstall windows 8. Spent over an hour and half trying to fix
that. Here I am still not able to install adobe reader. I was very unhappy
with what I was told to do and it gave me this issue.

You really need to install the CS6 updates. You haven't installed any of the updates.
And you need to update your Intel video card driver.

Adobe Reader for Windows Phone cannot open older PDF versions?

I've found that Adobe Reader for Windows Phone displays the following error when I try to open certain PDF documents: "There was an error opening the document".
After doing some limited testing I found that it can successfully open PDF documents which were saved as "PDF version: 1.5 (Acrobat 6.x)", but the error appears when it tries to open documents saved as the older format "PDF version: 1.3 (Acrobat 4.x)". (I am checking the filetype version by opening the documents in Adobe Reader X on my PC and looking at the document properties).
My phone is a HTC 7 Mozart running Windows Phone 7.5. I noticed the problem when I was using the SkyDrive app to try and look at some PDF files I have saved in SkyDrive. SkyDrive downloads the file and then passes it to the Adobe Reader app to view. It works when I look at a newer version 1.5 PDF but not the older v1.3 type. Unfortunately my HP Photosmart 5510 scanner outputs scans as PDF files and only in the older file version.
I've tried reinstalling the SkyDrive app and the Adobe Reader app on my phone. (The Adobe Reader app is version 10.1.1, build 20120919).
Is this a known limitation, or is this a bug?
If this is a limitation that won't be fixed - is there an easy way I can convert my files to the newer file type? (Adobe Reader X on my PC doesn't seem to offer a way to convert existing files)
Thanks!

Printing with Adobe Reader in Windows 8?

I am using Windows 8 which automatically took me to the new version of Adobe Reader. You know, the clean screen with no toolbars. However it's not apparent where to go to print the document that autoloads in .pdf format. The hidden toolbar that comes up at the bottom doesn't have a print icon. Thanks for your help. Drinian256.

No point in me starting a new thread.
I have yet to find another one on the same issue - but i'll keep digging.
Installing adobe reader for Windows 8 seems to force us to install as an app.
I am unable to find anyway to print from this app.
Any ideas?

Authorisations to run Adobe Reader under Windows 8

Under windows 8 with adobe reader 11, I have not been able to launch the program. Each time the system says I don't have the authorisations required (even when I follow instructions to get additional authorisations which I seem unable to obtain despite using the normal sequence of "properties" , "security" " advanced etc. and in this case I get the following message in the "target" slot"
The name "c:\program files\adobe\READER 11.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" is not valid. Verify that the routing (?) and the name of the file are correct
when I click on the Security tag although the location of the programes of Adobe Reader 11 are in fact in the location detailed above. It would seem that windows 8 has a security system that I don't seem to be able to adjust. (I have used Acrobat under Vista and under XP without these problems) . At the moment and after three days of efforts I am still incapable of getting Reader 11 to run..

(a) After installation of Reader 11.0, the following text appears on the
screen after either double clic on the screen icone or clic on c: directory
(c:\programmes\adobe\Reader 11.0 :-
Title: Reader 11.0
Vous ne disposez pas des autorisations requises pour acceder à ce dossier
(Translation (not on screen): You don't have the authorisations required to
accede to this file)
(There are two tabs ("Continue" and "Cancel")
If one clics on "Continuer" the screen reads:
Reader 11.0
L'acces à ce dossier vous a été refusé. Pour acceder à ce dossier vous
devez utiliser l'onglet de securité :
Translation: Acces to this file for you has been denied. To acces this
file you should use the "Security" tab.
One tab: "Fermer" (Close)
If one then does a right clic on the Reader 11.0 screen icone, and then
clic on "properties" then clic on "Security", I get a listing of "groupes or
users" which for this computer gives the following : "System", "John
Willis([email protected]"), "Administrateur (rulepar\Administrateur),
"Administrateurs (rulepar\Administrateurs), "Interactif". Each of these has a check
mark against "Controle Totale",
"Modification", "Lecture et execution", lecture", "Ecriture" and the three
"rulepar" entries each have a check mark against "Autorisations spéciales".
If one clics on the tab "Avancé" then
on the "Autorisations tab 'john willis ([email protected]_
(mailto:[email protected]) ), 'Administrateur (rulepar\Administrateur), "INTERACTIF",
"Administrateurs (rulepar\administrateurs), "Systeme" all have "Controle Totale"
, "Interactif" has "Lecture et Execution" and "Administrateyr
(rulepar\Administrateur) and "john willis ([email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) )
have "Special"
on the "Partage" (share?) tab there are two entries (Type = Autoriser"
Principal for "Administrateurs (rulepar\Administrateurs) and "Tout le monde
(everybody)
on the Audit tab there is nothing and on the Acces Effectif page there is
"Select a user but nothing else.
The title of this page is c:\users\Public@Desktop\Adobe Reader XI. lnk
under a page title "Parameters of advanced security for Adobe Reader XI

Adobe camera raw will not respond in bridge cs6?

adobe camera raw does not respond in adobe bridge? I am trying to open Jpegs, which i have previously been able to do so by right clicking and opening in adobe camera raw. Now it is unresponsive.

dj1461986
You are definitely in the wrong forum for Bridge CS6 and Adobe Camera Raw. You have posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing focus).
You probably want to be posting in the Photoshop Forum.
http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop
My preliminary findings suggest possible workaround
a. Open camera raw in Photoshop 5 or 5.5 and then open edited raw image in Bridge CS6
or
b. There is a preferences route to check out.
Not being a Photoshop user, this is a quick suggestion where you might start looking. This is apparently a known issue.
The Photoshop users should be able to give you all the details and options you have for workarounds for now.

Adobe Reader X does not launch

Hello,
Frequently, Adobe Reader X does not start on my Windows 7 computer.
I have tried the following methods of access:
Desktop link
Start > All Program > Adobe Reader X
Run > C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe
Environmental specs:
Computer: ASUS laptop
OS: Windows 7, fully updated as of 2/5/12
RAM: 8 gigs
Processor: Intel i5, second gen
Observations:
Subsequent attempts to launch Adobe Reader X add another "AcroRd.exe *32" image to the "Processes" tab in Windows Task Manager (the count of these images can build up very high).
These same attempts fail to add an "Adobe Reader X" task in the "Applications" tab of Task Manager.
The CPU and Memory were only at 25% of their capacities during the last occurrence.
[Failed] attempts taken to fix problem:
Repair install
Complete uninstall / reinstall
Workaround:
As of now, the only workaround I have found is to restart my computer. If I am lucky, Adobe Reader X will open after booting. Otherwise, I just have to keep restarting until it works.
Any help would be great.
Thanks,
Sam

Would it be possible for you to:
1. Temporarily disable the antivirus program and try launching Reader again.
2. Try launching Reader by right clicking on the shortcut and selecting "Run as Administrator"
If all the above steps produce negative results, please check the Event Logs on your machine (Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Evenet Viewer > Windows Logs > Application) and see if you are seeing any error related to Adobe Reader.
Also, could you let me know if launching Adobe Reader produces any error of sorts, or does it simply not launch inspite of a process being spawned.

Adobe Reader Installer does not work

I am trying to install Adobe reader on Windows 8. I downloaded Adobe Reader the Clicked the downloaded file and gave the permission. Then the Adobe Reader Installer window will show up but it's empty and has nothing on it. When I close it won't close either. I have to use windows task manger to close it. I tried to download it with another browser but still getting the same problem. I made sure that flash plug-in is working too. I used the direct link. Still can not install it.

Use the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

Adobe Reader 9 is not opening same files in Browser "Error in this Page"

Adobe Reader 9 is not opening same files in Browser "Error in this Page"
If I try to open this pdf file manually then its works.
The Error comes if I try to open Big Files or some else Files in the Browser.
This Error was not comming with Adobe 8.

To uninstall Adobe Reader, make sure (using Task Manager's Processes tab) that Adobe Reader is not running. Browser windows should also be closed.
If you still cannot proceed, try in Safe Mode, or use the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility.
P.S. Adobe AIR and Acrobat.com are not directly related to Adobe Reader, and can be uninstalled independently.
