Adobe Reader 11freezes with Windows 8 64 bit

Adobe 10 worked fine with Windows 8. After I upgraded Reader to 11 it started to freeze. It will download a PDF about a tenth of the way and then just freeze. Have to go to Taxk Manager to get out of the program. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times and this does not clear the problem. Sometimes, if i reboot my computer, it will work but one time only then it starts to freeze up again. Two questions, is there a fix and if not, how do I get back to Reader 10?

You can get previous versions of reader from: http://get.adobe.com/reader/otherversions/
Regarding your problem, you need to send some more information like the machine RAM usage and CPU usage when Reader 11 freezes. A screenshot would help.
Does other applications work correctly on your machine?

Strange FONT in Adobe Reader 9 with Windows 7

If a pdf was made from a word document or anything other than a scan the font is very strange, not default arial (see attached picture). I had this problem in reader X adn downgraded adn still have the problem. WHen this document is opened in gogle docs or on another computer the font is arial. Thanks for your help.

I have the same issue in multiple documents on Windows 7 with Adobe Reader X 10.1.0. Multiple others on my team can open the same files and do not have the issue. I have done a terse check and we have similar installed programs, etc.
Since I am not creating the documents, I have no control over how they are created. Also, I seem to have the issue on my computer and others do not.
Is there any way to troubleshoot font substitutions? Is there any way to verify fonts? Certainly I can see some fonts are not embedded in a sample I have, but I cannot see any way to know what font was specified and which was picked. If I could find out that, I may delete the strangely spaced one so a better choice is picked. It picks this odd font for what should be Arial...I think...but I am not sure. On this one sample doc I was able to get the creator to embed all fonts and it looks correct on my machine. However the previous version without embedded fonts shows like this:
Here is what it should look like:
Both version look fine on other machines.
Properties on bad font substitution version (I expect the circled are the issue):
Any help would be appreciated.

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.

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.

Adobe reader 5 with windows 7?

I'm told AR 5 is incompatible with windows 7 is there any fix?@

First, you cannot have two Reader versions on the same system.
If you are happy to have only Reader 5, you can try to run it under Windows 2000 or XP Compatibility Mode. No guarantee it will work.
You can download it from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobatreader/win/5.x/ - ar500enu.exe and ar505enu.exe being the English versions.
Another way, if you don't need to use it too often, is to run a copy of XP on Virtual PC.

Is Adobe Reader compatable with Window 7.

I can't get documents to open from website, just opens blank box. I have unistalled Adboe Reader 2 times and reinstalled, still won't open documents. An erroe comes up, " Unable to Download DocumentView.aspx. What can I do

Thanks for your response. I talked to someone who was
having the same problem and they told me it was in the security settings, I am
not very savvy on a computer so I will to figure out
the settings.

Reader compatability with x64 bit browsers?

I'm hoping to find out how I can use Adobe reader plugin with x64 bit IE7 & IE8 so I can read and search PDF files from within the browser. I use Vista X64 which actually installed both 32 & 64 bit versions of IE7 and when I use the 32 bit version of IE7 pdf's open in the browser just fine but when I try to open a pdf using the 64 bit version of the browser it insists on opening an external program instead of just opening the file in a tab of the browser. Is this even possible with a 64 bit browser? Is the solution something simple like I simply need to reinstall Adobe Reader 9.1 via the 64 bit browser to enable the feature or is it a hopeless idea?
I'm mainly wondering because I'm considering installing IE8 and don't want to have any problems

Adobe Reader X and Windows 7 Enterprise Memory Leak

Hi I am using Adobe Reader X with Windows 7 enterprise when reading a 8000 page document when I do a search I notice that the memory on my machine starts to creep up typically 1Mb per search this will continue to rise to over 300Mb as the document is used until it reaches a point that it freezes the machine, The only way to recover is Ctrl-Alt-Delete and cancel the task. Has this been observed by other users?

Good day,
Could you provide some additional details about both the file and your system's configuration?
What version of Adobe Reader X do you have installed? (Help > About Adobe Reader)
If you haven't updated to 10.0.3, please do so and see if the issue persists.
How was the PDF file you're searching created? (File > Document Properties > What does the PDF Producer line say?)
Are you experiencing this with multiple files?
Have you installed SP1 for Windows 7?

I know it was crazy hard to find the links!
My company paid for it and I hadn't been on in a while...
It took some serious bookmark/history crawling to find!
Here they are though!

AcroRd32.exe Error, The instruction at 0x9068675f reference memory at 0x9068675f. The memory could not be written. Click on OK to terminate the program. 2.) Adobe Reader ha stopped working, a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution ia available.

What is the Reader XI version you installed?
Does this also happen when you open Reader by itself? If not, can you try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

Does Adobe Reader Touch for Windows 8 support forms with auto calculation?

I'm using a preformatted form that contains auto calculations. When I use it on Adobe reader 11 on my laptop, it works. However, when I use the Adobe reader app for windows eight the auto calculations do not work. Is there anything I Can do?

Adobe Reader Touch (Windows Store app with "Modern" UI) does not support JavaScript yet. Thus, auto calculations or field formatting will not work.
If your operating system is Windows 8/8.1 (Pro), not Windows RT, you can install and run Adobe Reader XI (desktop app with classic UI).
If your operating system is Windows RT, you may want to try Microsoft Reader (the built-in PDF viewer by Microsoft) to see if auto calculations work.

Is Adobe reader touch for windows 8 support interactive PDF files with multi media contents like SWF

I have many PDF files with SWF content i try Adobe reader X but it is slow, so i try Adobe reader touch for windows 8 but the SWF doesn't work.

The full featured Reader for Windows 8 is Reader XI.
Reader Touch works in all Windows 8 systems BUT it is intended mainly for use in mobile tablets - I see no particular reason to use it unless you can'r run Reader XI. Given it is mainly for use on mobile that can't use Flash, we aren't likely to ever see the development team spending their time on this.
If you want the latest and greatest - at least try Reader XI, not X! (Flash is a separate download, it will prompt).

Will file converting pdf file to excel work with Adobe Reader 10.1, Windows 7 platform?

Will file converting pdf file to excel work with Adobe Reader 10.1, Windows 7 platform? It shows that it is available for purchase but does it perform? Will this work only with Reader XI? Is the conversion done on-line?

Moved to Adobe ExportPDF.
The file is uploaded to the web for conversion. You can manually upload pdfs for conversion with your web browser and/or with Reader 10.1.

Adobe Connect issues with Windows 7

Has anyone found a solution to the problems Adobe Connect has with Windows 7?

Sounds like something is blocking network traffic. I'm not aware of any Windows 7 specific issues. I've used Windows 7 with connect for 2 years with no Windows specific issues.
I'd call support at 800-945-9120 and see if they can indentify the issue and give you a resolution.
