Adobe reader, 2 different versions

I have 2 versions of Adobe reader and my question is do I have to have 2 different versions...I have Adobe reader 9.3.4 size 211.00 MB and Adobe reader 9.4.0 size 144.00MB, Is there an need for both versions...can i delete the 9.3.4 version for more space.. or do I have to have it as well as the 9.4.0 version...I feel the both of them are taking up way to much space..but, I am not sure if I can safely remove the 9.3.4. I am running window xp on a dell computer. Thanks for the info and waiting to hear back with an answer..

You can delete one of the two, no problem.
BUT ! If you see the two versions in Add Remove Programs, first check in "Program Files" if there are actually two diff. versions or the installer just messed up.
To be 100% sure remove both and reinstall 9.4 ( or earlier version if needed )

My safari (and i keep it updated) cannot open PDF files.Should i install Adobe Reader and which version????/ I have Mac Book Pro running OS 10.9
Please help me!!!!

Back up all data.
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Issue: installed Adobe Reader XI, Norwegian version, existing pdf will not open or appear empty

I have uninstalled and reinstalled a number of times, but I still have the same issue. Adobe automatically gives me the Norwegian version as I live in Norway. When I open existing pdf files they appear empty, and automatically close themselves after a few seconds.
Any idea how I can solve this problem?
Your input is highly appreciated!
Thank you.

Thank you so much for your swift response, Pat! The first step – accepting the Eula license agreement solved my problem ☺ ☺ ☺
Wish you a great day – you just helped making mine a lot better!

Anzeigefehler beim Adobe Reader 10.1.4 und bei Adobe Reader 11 aktuellste Version

Hallo zusammen,
wir haben bei einem PC das Problem, das der Adobe Reader Anzeigefehler hat. Die Menüleiste mit Datei, Bearbeiten, usw. wird nicht angezeigt, genauso wie die Leiste, wo man das Fenster minimieren, maximieren und schließen kann.
Auf dem Screenshot ist der Fehler auch gut zu erkennen. Der Screenshot stammt aus der Version 10.1.4. Wir haben bereits sämtliche Versionen ausprobiert ohne Erfolg. Ich habe nach der Deinstallation aller Adobe Produkte (Flashplayer und PDF iFilter) die Adobe Ordner aus C:\Programme, C:\ProgramData, C:\Benutzer\XXXX\Appdata\Roaming, Locallow sowie Local gelöscht und anschließend neuinstalliert. Als Administrator wird alles einwandfrei angezeigt. Ich habe auch auf das Verzeichnis in C:\Programme\Adobe dem Benutzer Vollzugriff gegeben, hat auch nichts gebracht.
Es handelt sich um einen Windows 7 Professional 64bit Rechner, der komplett neu ist und gerade installiert wurde.
English Version:
Hi there,
we have the problem that the Adobe Reader has display error on a PC. The menu bar with File, Edit, etc is not displayed, as is the bar where you can minimize, maximize and close the window.
On the screenshot of the error is also easy to recognize. The screenshot is from version 10.1.4. We have already tried all the versions without success. I have after uninstalling all Adobe products (Flash and PDF iFilter) the Adobe folder from C:\Program Files, C:\ProgramData, C:\Users\XXXX\Appdata\Roaming, LocalLow and Local and then reinstalled.As an administrator everything is displayed correctly. I also give the user full control on the path c:\program files\adobe, without success.
It is a Windows 7 Professional 64bit computer, which is completely new and was just installed.
Ich hoffe Ihr könnt uns weiterhelfen.
I hope you can help us.

I want to geht this topic back. We've got the same problem with the Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard. The Windows 7 is installed completely new and full updated. There are only Office 2007 Small Business and Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard installed, no other software.
In Adobe Acrobat 9 I didn't find the option "enable protected mode at startup". So here it isn't the solution.
Here are some screenshots from the error.
After that I installed the Adobe Reader X, but this it didn't have the error.
I tested a repair installation, a completely new windows installation, but the error already there.
I don't know how I can solve this problem.
If you press F9, the windows control bar is showing.
If you press F9 again, the menu bar is showing.
But when you restart the software, you get the same problem.
Edit: The last screenshot was wrong.

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.

Thanks, I was having a similar problem, and this solution took care of it.
good work

Adobe Reader X change the PDF version after saved

Hi all,
I recently discovered a weird behavior of Adobe Reader X (free version) regarding the .PDF version document.
I scanned just before the week-end a series of documents with default 1.4 version, I checked several and all were ok, Scanner did the job well.
The only problem is that every time I opened a document and save it under a different name, or replace under the same name – Save As option (Shift+Ctrl+S); the version of the document is automatically changed from 1.4 to 1.5; This is very annoying since I do not need 1.5 document version I use only 1.4.
Is there a way to work around this? I mean the Adobe Reader X should not keep the version 1.4 and not change it to 1.5
Thanks is advance for looking into this

Hello, I ve WindowsXP & need a new better Adobe Reader version on it?

hello, I do have a problem.
The old Adobe Reader 9.3 version doesnt seem to excist, so I can not even take the old A.R 9.3 version away.
I ve tried to down load a newer version but always get messages that Im not allowed to do it, since my old&fake version?
How shall I proceed with this, glad for any info.
Thx.

I dont know very much about computers etc etc, so I dont know how to make, take a so called screenshot & what do you want me to make a screenshot of, one of the attached files in my mailbox or how the AdobeReader 11.0 program look like?
I dont remember Ive had to do nothing before when using PDF, it just did work. Maybe things are different today & Ive to tweak or make some adjustments on the AR 11.0 program, when I ve installed it?
Hmm, seems like someone or this machine of mine is only playing with me
Yesterday I did succeed with the installation of the AdobeReader 11.0 program with the MSI link you showed me. Everything seemed to work, except that I still couldnt read my attached files in my mailbox.
Now this morning everything is gone, nothing in my Cotrollpanel & the small PDFsigns that was showing yesterday on some old files on my Desktop are also gone (thats why I checked my Controllpanel again)
Its just like before, the Adfobe Reader sign is on my Desktop but when I click on it , it doesnt open & when I click on the same sign on my Start menu its like before, I cant open the AdobeReader 11.0 because a message telling me I cant do it because the program isnt orit is incorrectly installed.
So what have happend now? I didnt clean or remove the installation???
Maybe my whole pc is corrupted, not only the old AdobeReader 9.3 program?
So yesterday, two steps forward & today three steps back again
I dont know what to do anymore...

Is Adobe Reader Touch a more current version than Adobe Reader 9?

Is Adobe Reader Touch a more current version than Adobe Reader 9? I am reviewing spec requirements for a software program to run on my Microsoft Surface RT, and need to know if the Adobe Reader Touch (which is currently the only Adobe Reader available in the Microsoft Store) is an "Adobe Reader 9 or later" version of Reader.

Adobe Reader Touch (Windows Store app with "Modern" UI) and Adobe Reader XI (traditional desktop app with classic UI) are completely different products. Probably the only thing in common is the first part of the name "Adobe Reader".
The latest versions of Adobe Reader Touch are
version 2.0 for Windows 8.1/RT 8.1
version 1.3 for Windows 8/RT
For a Surface RT tablet running the Windows RT operating system, your choice of a PDF viewer is somewhat limited to Adobe Reader Touch or Microsoft Reader. Because Adobe Reader XI is not compatible with the Windows RT operating system.

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!

Latest version of Adobe Reader won't let me annotate

I have been using the Adobe Reader 11 app to open PDFs and annotate them. The revised pdf is then uploaded to Dropbox and the reps in the field can download and continue annotating the same file. The field reps use iPads and/or iPhones but since the update to iOS 8.1 we can no longer annotate (I had a programmer specifically design this pdf form for me so it could be virtually passed and added to from one person to another via their mobile devices). Thoughts anyone?
Len

Len,
We received the PDF form. Thank you!
The Document Properties dialog shows that your PDF form is a static XFA form authored with Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES 9.0.
Unfortunately, Adobe Reader mobile products (Reader for iOS, Android, Windows Phone) do not support static or dynamic XFA forms. This has not changed since the introduction of Adobe Reader mobile products a few years ago. This has not changed for Adobe Reader for iOS version 10.4.
When you open the static XFA form in any of the Adobe Reader mobile products, the text fields in the form are not highlighted in light blue. That is the indication of the PDF form not being "fillable". In other words, you are not able to fill in the static XFA form in Adobe Reader mobile products. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Please use the desktop version of Adobe Reader to fill in static and dynamic XFA forms.
To make PDF forms fillable in both the desktop and mobile versions of Adobe Reader, we'd recommend authoring PDF forms using Acrobat Pro.
Please let us know if you have further questions.

PDF is not opening after Adobe Reader's upgrade to version X

Hello there!
Please I'm having a trouble relating to Adobe Reader I hope you can help me
Today I was asked to upgrade Adobe Reader to X version. Sure enough I did it
The problem is that now when I try to open a pdf file I get the message:
"Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item", as it shows in the following picture:
I'm using Windows Vista 32 bits. I've googled this issue and nothing of what I found was helpful
I'm the Administrator of this machine and had pdf opening normally before this upgrade.
Does anyone know what I can do to solve this problemm ?
Thanks very much in advance
Willian

Hello!
Thank you very much for your reply!
Well, I tried what you suggested but unfortunately it's still not working at all
But what I did that saved me from this issue was installing Adobe Reader version 8 (9 didn't work as well oO!)
And now it's working kinda fine with 8 version (I still get the same error message, but it opens afterwards so that's fine lol)
Well, thank you for trying to help me, I really apreciate it!

How can I access and download earlier versions of Adobe Reader to put on my older model iPod Touch?

We have model PC086LL iPod Touched from roughly 2008 for our school that are rarely used anymore because we've updated to iPads. But, I want to be able to use some of the iPod Touches to store files to access remotely in emergencies. Unfortunately I cannot access earlier versions of the Adobe Reader app that are compatible with this version iPod. How do I get access to those earlier versions?

SGMS Knight,
Based on the model number that you provided, your device is an iPod Touch 2nd generation.
According to the following Wikipedia page, the highest supported operating system for the iPod Touch 2nd generation is iOS 4.2.1.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_iOS_devices#iPod_Touch
Adobe Reader for iOS version 11.0.1 is compatible with iOS 5. However, the App Store does not have the earlier version of Adobe Reader that is compatible with iOS 4.
As a user, you can download and install Adobe Reader for iOS only from the App Store.
You may be able to find other free PDF viewers that are compatible with iOS 4 in the App Store.
Good luck.

Is it possible to access a version of the Adobe Reader app that is compatible with iOS5.1.1?

We use iPads to access PDF prints in a manufacturing environment. We now can't access a version of the app that is compatible with ourhardware. Is there an access point to get the older apps?

Hi,
Yes! The App Store can provide the latest compatible version of Adobe Reader for your iPad running iOS 5.1.1.
Please take a look at the following forum post to get the dialog with the message "Download an older version of this app?".
Re: Reader on iPad 1
I just tried it with my first gen. iPad running iOS 5.1.1 and confirmed that Adobe Reader for iOS version 11.0.1 was successfully downloaded and installed on my iPad.
Please let us know if you need further assistance. Thank you.
