Adobe Reader 11 wont work...

I downloaded Adobe Reader 11 and now I can't open ANY pdf's. When I try, I get an error message and Adobe Reader shuts itself down. Eerything was working perfectly until I downloaded the new Reader... HELP!!!

Graffiti, Good point. Here is the entire error message:
Adobe Reader has Stopped Working.
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.
Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
Pretty generic message.... I had to uninstall Adobe Reader and download a generic free reader so I could at least print the .pdf's I needed.

    Hi.  I have a Dell PC running Windows 7 64 bit.  I have the latest version of Adobe Reader,  It worked yesterday.  Today I have job training to do that is due tomorrow morning and I can't open PDF files.  I have to open a guide and read it and take a test tomorrow.  I have deleted and reinstalled the application.  I have rebooted.  I have made sure my PDF's are associated with the program.  Every PDF on my computer won't open and I get the same error message.  It simply says Attempt to access invalid address.  How can I fix this?  Thanks.

    Hi Don,
    I have seen this issue fixed for some users by modifying the following registry key:
    The key is "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management" MoveImages
    Set the key to 1 instead of 0 then reboot the machine.
    In case you still face the issue try the following registry key change:
    The only thing you have to do is rename the following key at the REGEDIT, and everything will be fine !!
    BEFORE:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.exe
    AFTER:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.old
    Note: Please take a backup of the registry before attempting this change.
    Regards,

  • Flash Player And adobe reader not working and downloads don't work

    I have IE 8 and windows vista and everything has worked great for 2 years until 2 or 3 weeks ago.  At that time my flash player stopped working so I could no longer get videos , streaming stock quotes, weather map loops, etc and when I go to websites that use Flash (i.e. Piaaz Hut) it wouldn't work.  Also, at that same time my adobe reader stopped working properly and I can't view mosy PDF Files.
    I have gone through many of the posts on this forum and have tried many of the fixes, but none have work for me.
    I tried to uninstall the Flash Player, but I didn't use the Adobe uninstaller.
    Whenever I try to update or load the Flash player, a dialog box with the globe tossing papers to the folder appears and then after a few seconds I get the the message that IE can't install_flash_player_ax.exe from fp download.adobe.com, and then a message that says IE was not able to open this internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found.
    In control panel programs I have listed
    Adobe AIR      no size
    Adobe Flash Player 10 active X           no size
    Adobe Reader 9.3     141mb
    Macromedia Shockwave player      no size
    In Tools i have the following add ons and they are all enabled
    Shockwave Flash object 10.0.42.34
    Adobe PDF Link Helper
    Adobe PDF Reader
    Macromedia Shockwave Active X Control 10.1
    As I said I've already attempted a number of the fixes on this forum, but so far no luck.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on what else I might try?
    Thanks

    Ok, I tried to download the firefox browser but IE wouldn't let me download it.  My friend downloaded it from their computer to a flash drive and I loaded it to my computer from the flash drive.  The download of Firefox from the flash drive worked, and now I'm using Firefox & both my adobe flash player and my adobe reader are working just great.
    However, neither the flash player nor the reader are working if I use IE, so I guess I will just have to use Firefox as my browser.
    I'm going to mark my question as answered since I really don't care that I have to use Firefox instead of IE,although I can't understand why it works using Firefox but not using IE.
    Thank you so much for your assistance in walking me step-by-step through this problem until I was able to reach a satisfactory solution.

  • Adobe Reader Not Working after OS 2 UPGRADE

    Hope someone can help with this issue.  Updated to OS 2, but now the Adobe Reader does not work.  Since this was a new device and the upgrade started automatically, I have no idea if Adobe Reader worked in the previous OS version - from the forums, it seem to work.  The shortcut icon is still there but when you click on it,  Adobe Reader opens but is non-functional.  Clicking on a PDF does nothing.  I then tried to uninstall it in My World in Blackberry World Apps.  In the Installed section, it shows Adobe Reader as being installed but I noticed that the Delete button was greyed out so I could not uninstall it for a reinstall.
    It was interesting to note that when I tried to find Adobe Reader in BB World Apps, there was no listing for Adobe Reader.
    Does anyone else have the same issue?  Hopefully there is a solution for this problem.  Is there another alternative app to Adobe Reader?  Thanks.

    Here is a quick test if to check if your Adobe Reader is currently working properly within its current confinement. Open the app and click on ‘Browse’.
    If you can browse around, the app is working properly. If you can’t, close Adobe and then open it once more and try to browse.
     If you still can’t browse it is time to ‘Restart’ your PB via the battery icon’s ‘Restart’ option.
    Once your PB’s main screen loaded again repeat the test. I am sure you can browse now but don’t open a file yet. We need a ‘known’ conforming PDF file.
    Now, this might be a bit of a surprise. Not all PDF files are created equally. Therefore, some PDF files can’t be opened by this Adobe Reader’s version without ‘hanging’ the app as indicated by ’not able to browse anymore’.
    Please, download a conforming PDF file like the manual for the Playbook and select ‘Download PDF’ from this BB site:
    http://docs.blackberry.com/en/smartphone_users/del​iverables/27018/index.jsp?name=User+Guide+-+BlackB​...
    Now open Adobe and select the newly downloaded file: “BlackBerry_Playbook_Tablet_User_Guide—“and it should open all 86 pages. Scroll around. This 2nd test verifies that your Adobe Reader is working because this file was created to follow the Microsoft – Adobe agreed upon standard which the PB is following.
    So at this point in time we users have to except that some files are non-conforming and that Adobe Reader version 10.0.3 needs an update.  BTW, I couldn’t find Adobe’s security setting in my PB either (this is not a 'fix' for OS 2 users).
    Remember, Adobe cannot open files directly if you browse to your smartphone’s Adobe documents even so they might be ‘conforming’. You have to open these files first via File Manager (found on your main screen) so Adobe gets a trusted link which it stores in its hidden “Recent Document' folder. I guess, this link then allows Adobe to open conforming files which are stored in your smartphone the next time you open this linked  Adobef PDF file without the help of the File Manager.
    Your question: Is there another alternative app to Adobe Reader? Contributor sohrabza suggested to use an Android app called ‘Repligo’. I looked a bit into this and it is not yet a downloadable PB app unless you know how to a handle a bar file installation in your Playbook together with their Android version. They also make a Repligo version for the BB smartphone so they know RIM. I can’t believe cerience has not readied the Playbook App store download version to get my $4.99. Many users might want to choose this alternative PDF reader once it is available in the BB AppStore but their website does not give a hint if their app approval is pending with RIM.

  • Trying to open pdf and Adobe Reader Stops Working...Please Help

    Trying to open PDF and it keeps popping up that Adobe Reader Stopped Working.  And doesn't seem to find a solution to fix.  Has been going on for a couple days.  Can't access pdf files needed for my business.

    With Reader XI I assume you mean 11.0.0; try updating to 11.0.06.
    Also, can you open Reader by itself?  If so, try to disable Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

  • Adobe Reader Stops Working in Win7.  Is there a fix for this, other that updating?

    On my multiple Win7 or Vista machines, I suddenly have experienced Adobe Reader not working.  I have tried to install the latest updates and have even uninstalled and reinstalled it.  Nothing helps the situation.  Does anyone have a fix for this?  Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!

    Some things to try...
    Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    If you cannot open Reader by itself, try to disable Protected Mode in the registry; download, unzip, then run the attached registry script
    It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

  • Which Adobe Reader download works in Windows 95 and 98

    Hello,
    A friend uses Windows 95 or 98 and is trying to find a version of Adobe Reader that works on this/these operating systems. If anyone knows the answer (I can;t find it on the Adobe website) please let me know. It would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks,

    I am sure that Reader 6.0 works on Windows 98, you can download it from http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/6.x/6.0/enu/AdbeRdr60_enu_full.exe
    I'm not sure if this runs on Windows 95 - try it, but you may even need an older version (I remember using Reader 4.0 at the time).

  • Adobe reader wont read any files, including downloads

         Hi, recently my laptop (windows Vista) received a virus, and when i got rid of it, adobe reader 9 will no longer read files. It wont run my McAfee unless i run it in administrator, and wont open any files. When i tried to download Adobe Reader 9 again, the immediate install doesnt work. when i click on the alternate link, and run the file, it says Adobe Reader cannot read the file because it is either not a supported file type, or is a damaged file. any help? I am getting very frustrated with this. Thanks!

    do you think i could try it without downloading the microsoft program?
    Maybe if you are familiar with the dangerous practice of editing registry files. With the intaller utility, you will be able to choose what to remove. It's not going to remove anything you don't want it to.

    also, do i need Adobe Reader 9 to download files? because it keeps asking me to use Adobe Reader 9 every time i try to re download it,
    To read PDF files, you'll need Adobe Reader (or a third party PDF reader) yes.

  • Does Adobe Reader plugin work in Firefox 11 if launched from Gnome?

    Sorry to cross post, but I couldn't figure out how to move my post from the "Adobe Reader" forum to the "Adobe Reader for Unix" forum.
    If I launch Firefox (version 11) from the command line (Linux shell), then I can open a PDF with the Adobe Reader plugin.  But if I launch Firefox from the desktop or panel in Gnome, I get the message "Could not launch Adobe Reader 9.1.0. Please make sure it exists in PATH variable in the environment.  If the problem persists, please reinstall the application."
    acroread is in the PATH variable - I checked ("which acroread" and "echo $PATH")
    We are using acroread 9.3.2.  We tried updating to the latest acroread 9.4.something ...? but the SendMail option was missing from Edit->Preferences, so we reverted to 9.3.2.
    We are using Debian Linux 5.0.8.
    It is very convenient and user-friendly in our library for visitors to be able to view a PDF in the browser (with the plugin) and to be able to just click on the envelope icon from there to send a PDF.
    This was working fine until we upgraded to Adobe Reader 9.4.  We reverted to 9.3.2, and everything was working fine again.  Then our systems people did some things, including updating Mozilla Firefox from version 3.6.13 to version 11.  Then the plugin stopped working from the Gnome launch panel.  I tried running the old Firefox 3.6.13 from the Gnome launch panel, but the plugin no longer works in it, either.
    Has anyone had this problem?
    Sometimes running Firefox from the command line gives some errors.  I tried various versions of nppdf.so and tried toggling the about:config variable "dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.nppdf.so" but nothing changed.

    I have the same or a very similar issue on WIn7 64bit

  • Adobe reader not working. Can anybody help?

    I am using a Nokia E63 device. Adobe Reader came preloaded in the device. I recently formatted my phone and when i backed it up, my pdf files won't open. Whenever i try to open any pdf file it says 'unable to open file!'. I tried accessing the Adobe Reader application directly but it dosen't respond.
    I also tried downloading new adobe version i.e. Adobe Reader LE v2.5 it worked fine but it is a trial and i can only use it for 6 days. It asks for a key and i don't know what shall i do.
    Can anybody plesae help me in this matter.

    Settings -> General -> iPad cover lock/unlock -> On
    Try toggling this setting on then off. Are you sure the case you have has the magnets that are compatible with this feature. Also with the setting turned on you could try a Reset, hold down the Home and Sleep buttons at the same time for 10 seconds, the iPad will then perform a reset.
