Adobe reader 7.0.8 not working

I am having trouble getting the Adobe reader to open pdf files on web sites. I have installed the version particular to my Mac and placed it in the applications section. I am still a neophyte when it comes to my Mac and am wondering if I have loaded the software incorrectly or placed it in the wrong area? Help?? Advice??
Thanks!

Hi Stephen!
You may also want to try out the Schubert|it - PDF Browser Plugin.
I hardly ever use the Reader to just view online PDFs.
Once the plug-in is utilized, online PDFs, will automatically open in the browser.
It doesn't have all the capabilities of Reader, but it is adequate for things like viewing PDFs, and saving a copy to the Hard Drive, where they can be opened in Preview.

Reflow in Adobe Reader for Android does not work

The reflow option in my Adobe reader for Android does not work. The PDF book I am trying to read is too wide to be legible when I fit it into the screen (even in landscape), but the reflow button doesn't change that. When I click it, nothing happens. The only thing I know to do is to uninstall and re-install, but that did not work. Any other tips or ideas?

Mehwish,
Thank you so much for responding, and so quickly. I appreciate it.
It does not appear as though the PDF I am trying to read would have an element in it that would block it from reflow, but that is always possible. It’s a textbook, and I understand that toward the end of the book there are some charts and diagrams, but I haven’t gotten to those chapters yet. So far, I’ve just been trying to use the Adobe Reader to read the introduction and first chapter and nothing I have done has made it reflow.
I’m enclosing a copy of the entire book. Perhaps you can uncover something in it that I didn’t see.
Thanks again for you help.

Thumbnail preview works in adobe reader 9 but does not work in adobe 8.0

I have small issue. Thumbnail works in adobe reader 9 but but does not work in adobe acrobat 8.0 in win xp

Anyone going to tell me how to do this uninstalling and installing??????????
I don't want to mess things up even more! Geez--I'm almost 60 years old,
need to work and this might be costing me a job. I'm not 20 and text and
e-mail etc every day. I'm just asking for a little help that as I see it ,
is due to a "glitch" with Adobe's software. They can easily in their
technological minds put a warning on anything before someone downloads
anything such as "If you download this and you have already downloaded
that,, then it won't work." How tough would that be??? They, like most other
major corporations, are in it for the money. What has happened to customer
service???
I need a step by step with my hand held and so it won't screw up things even
MORE. Adobe...get your customer service and your software together...This is
draining. I may lose a job over it. I need to have my computer running well
at this point in time as there is no extra time to spend dealing with
software issue that are a result of Adobe's software incompatibility.
I was on the phone for TWO hours last night telling people exactly what was
going on. I even read the error message word for word. No one would help me
unless I coughed up the money that I don't have...and in addition I will
lose a job that might get me some money. This is why I am so upset. Why is
dealing with Adobe always so difficult??? Of course, I am upset. I'm
actually a lovely person. It is just that this stuff rattles my nerves.
Especially when there is a jobwith a raiseinvolved that I may lose as a
result.
Now I had better get dressed and ready for the job I have now before I am
late for work and lose that job, too.....

The "portable document format" icon is a Word 2010 icon, so selecting Adobe Reader as action does not work to display the PDF.

In the Applications tab -- Content Type -- the "portable document format" icon is a Word 2010 icon (not Adobe), so selecting Adobe Reader or preview in Firefox as action does not work to display the PDF. I can see this Applications difference because my other Firefox laptop has the Adobe icon, and I can view PDFs. Essentially, a PDF is coming in as a Word document -- and the computer tries to open it up as a Word file.
How do I get the correct PDF icon in the Applications list -- the same way it displays (and works) on my other laptop.

Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape 10.1.7 ?
I think you need to add this to the list of applications and the action to take on the type of content. This can also be managed in the about:permissions page. [[Permissions Manager - Give certain websites the ability to store passwords, set cookies and more]]

Adobe Read Out Loud feature not working

Anyone else run into this. We activate it, it scans the document looking for tags, then does not read it. Any ideas?

Hey there hdilios,
Just been trying to sort this one out myself, I noticed that you tried re-installing Adobe Reader with the same result.
Could it be that, when you installed the first time / updated and then re-installed, Adobe Reader Protected Mode was automatically re-applied by default. Read Out Loud will not function while in Protected Mode.
You must disable it to hear Read Out Loud document reader, it is quite safe to disable this additional security function, and the only way to make it work.
To disable Adobe Reader XI Protected Mode
- Open Adobe Reader
- Click menu item Edit
- Select Preferences
- Preference panel opens
- Select Security (Enhanced) in Categories list
- Uncheck Enable Protected Mode at Startup
- Dialog opens Click Yes
- Close Preferences
- Close/Restart Adobe Reader
- Open a document you wish to read
- Activate Read Out Loud
- Choose Option to read Page or Whole Document
- or setup for Reading with the Accessability Assistant.
Hope this is the answer you are looking for, my Read Out Loud feature is functioning fine now it had me baffled for a while, thought my sound card was malfunctioning.
Cheers Jethro

I am trying to download Adobe Reader, I have Windows 7 on my PC. Every time I get the download, I click on it to install the program, and I get the usual messages but I never get the install message. When I try the download again, I get a message telling me only one copy of the program can go on the computer. When I check the program list, it is not there. I have to restore my computer before I can attempt the download and install again. I have tried this at least 6 times but cannot install Adobe Reader. Please help me out with this. I really like this product and prefer to use it. I had o originally delete the program, due to an update conflict.

You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:
http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

ADOBE READER 8.1 WILL NOT WORK-KEEP GETTING ERROR MESSAGE 1606: COULD NOT ACCESS NETWORK LOCATION %APPDATA%

Have tried to uninstall the Adobe Program but it will not let me. I keep getting the 1606 error message. I have went to the Microsoft Help site and it says that the registry may need to be modified. They also advised you that if you do not modify it correctly you may have very serious problems.

Please see this Microsoft KB article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/886549/
Some registry entry may have been corrupted, and it needs to be fixed. If you don't know how to edit the registry, do you have somebody who is confident enough to edit the Windows registry?
Anyway, for now I just want you to check something in the registry - don't modify anything yet!
Click Start | Run | type regedit [Enter]
Once the Registry Editor is open, drill down to the following subkey
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
In here you should see multiple entries, one being AppData - what is the data value on the right side? It should be %USERPROFILE%\Application Data.
Please close the registry editor now, and report back what you found.

Adobe reader and exchange email not working after update

I updated to Safari 5.1.1 and Security Update 2011-006 via Software Updates today.
This rendered my .PDF plugin completely useless so I uninstalled that and tried the built in version, which works for all form input but will not allow me to submit the form!
Also my exchange email quite working.
I have deadlines I NEED to get done using in browser .PDF support w/ the ability to submit.
Any suggestions?

I responded to the other post with a solution to this, user I troubleshooted was on Exchange 2013
I came across this issue today. Email appears to be sent but nothing shows up in the sent items or the recipient mailbox. I powered off and on the iphone and tried to send again and this time got a message sending error and it kept retrying. I went into the advanced settings of the exchange email account and turned S/MIME on and the email got sent. I then turned S/MIME off again and emails continued to be sent normally.
