Adobe Reader 8.1.2 and MAC OS X 10.4.11

Hi,
Just installed Adobe Reader 8.1.2 and when I try to open a .pdf, the file opens for around 5seconds and then disappears and Reader closes without any apparent error message.
In all my years of using free Acrobat (now reader? - why the change in name?) I've never had an issue as just a "dumb" user... I'd sure like to get back to that situation ;-)
Here is what gets written into the console window if that helps:
===== samedi 29 mars 2008 10 h 01 Europe/Paris =====
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
what(): Unable to determine registration filepath!
Any and all suggestions gratefully received.

The name was Adobe Acrobat Reader until version 5.0. As of 6.0 (2003)
they changed it to Adobe Reader.

Could be this issue:

  • Can't print PDF with Adobe Reader 10.1.12 and Mac OS 10.7.5

    I can print other things from this computer to my printer but not PDFs. Have been able to for years but not now. "Print as image" works but print quality too low.
    Using HP Laser Jet P3005dn
    Very frustrating. Have not gotten anything from apple, HP, or adobe communities.

    Went back to HP.com and this time was able to see and download latest driver and firmware for HP LaserJet P3005dn  Installation of new firmware was done thru the HP Printer Utility application on my iMac OS 10.7.5
    I was able to choose my printer and then upload the firmware file from the iMac to the printer. This has completely solved the problem!
    Thank you ~graffiti Not sure why I was not able to access the driver and firmware earlier from the HP site but eventually I found it.

    I have installed Adobe Reader 11.0.07 for Mac OS 10.9.3. Have asked this question numerous time without results. The problems I am having are: I cannot scroll using the side slider on downloaded PDF files, nor can I fill in fillable files. Also, and this is extremely irritating, I cannot re-initialize the same file or initialize and another PDF file after I have initialized the first file. If you cannot help please let me know if should use an earlier  version of Reader or find anther company that has the appropriate software.

    Perhaps you missed that you started a discussion at I have OS 10.9.2 and have downloaded latest version of Reader 11. I can no longer fill in form or scroll using the side bar. and you did not respond to the last post there.

  • Adobe Reader 11.0.09 on MAC prints PDFs 1/6 of page 6 times on page, instead of the whole page. Help please!!

    I am using Mac OS X 10.9.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.09 and it prints PDFs 1/6 of page 6 times on page, instead of the whole page. I have tried Print as Image, no joy. Multiple pages is NOT selected. I cannot get anyone from Adobe to help me with this problem and it is becoming a major impediment to my work!

    Hi Suzbat,
    If you try to print any other document from any other application. Did you check, are you facing the same issue or not?
    Have you tried to install latest drivers of the printer.

  • Adobe Reader 11.0.03 and Flash Player 11.8.800.94 Not Working on Windows 8

    On a computer running Windows 8 Enterprise, Adobe Reader 11.0.03, and Flash Player 11.8.800.94, I am unable to open a flash-enabled PDF.  Reader gives me the error "To view the Flash technology content in this PDF file, please install this version of Flash Player that supports Adobe Reader and Acrobat."  Adobe's Flash verification page shows me that Flash Player is working, and I can open other basic PDFs in Reader.  I have another machine with an identical setup, except that it has Acrobat 11.0.03 instead of Reader, and the PDF opens just fine on that machine.  Why won't Reader open the Flash-enabled PDF?

    Hello r,
    if your problems remains, you better should completely uninstall your Adobe Reader, restart your computer and the make a complete download of "Adobe Reader XI" >>> http://get.adobe.com/reader/ as a real new installation.

  • I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt or damaged. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    Perhaps the PDF files are corrupted.
    Hit the command key and spacebar, a blue Spotlight in the upper right hand corner appears, now type Preview and press return on the Preview program.
    Now you can try opening the PDF's from the file menu and see what's going on.
    If they are corrupted, perhaps they are trojans from your Windows PC or gotten from a bad location online.
    Download the free ClamXav and run a scan on the possibly infected folder.

  • Adobe Reader 11.0.03 and Windows 8

    Hello,
    I am getting the error "cannot find or create the font 'Arial'. Some Characters may not display or print correctly" in Adobe Reader 11.0.03. If I click thru the error, the pdf is fine and perfectly readable and doesn't appear again. Also, my co-workers can download/open the same pdf's from the same source and get no errors at all. If I forward the pdf that I received the error with, the person who received the pdf in question doesn't get the error. It is random, it doesn't happen with all pdf's, but enough to cause concern. I have uninstalled/re-installed Adobe Reader 11.0.03, and done a repair. The font in question is installed. I even downloaded/installed the Arial font from an installation CD of Windows 8 in case mine were corrupted somehow.  Some backround information:
    Windows 8 on a tablet PC running a Corporate image
    Adobe Reader 11.0.03
    This image is the standard for my company and is the exact same on every tablet that is deployed within the company. Yet, to my knowledge, I am the only one receiving this error. I do not want to have this tablet re-imaged and don't believe it should be necessary.
    Any and all help and/or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    If I have forgotten to include any needed information to help your diagnosis/resolution, please let me know and I will post it as soon as I can.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Adobe Reader 9.3.4 and Pro Extended

    I tried to upgrade to the 9.3.4 version of reader and it wouldn't let me for some reason. Something about a missing .msi file in one of the directories. So I used revo uninstaller to remove it and try to reinstall it. I redownloaded the program and the ran the Adobe Reader 9.3.4 Update - setup. It processes to 100 % and then closes. And nothing. so I don't know whats going on. I also downloaded the trial of Adobe Pro Extended and everything went fine up to the install screen. I click the install button and nothing happens, so no clue whats going on with that either. Any ideas?

    I tried the first link to install reader and it simply runs to 100% and then closes.

    Can you try installing the same from the following locations:
    ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.3.4/enu/AdbeRdr934_en_US.exe
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=acrobat_pro_extended
    P.S. The error message that you received while updating Adobe Reader was  probably due to the fact that you may have deleted the cached setup  files on your system. Hence, it was prompting you to provide the  required installer file (.MSI file)

  • Printing problem Adobe Reader 9.3.0 and Windows 7 64bit

    Good morning:
    I cannot print a PDF to my Toshiba E-Studio165 copier (print through router).  The data is sent to my E-Studio and the data light blinks and the copier starts but nothing prints.
    I can print the same PDF to an old Brother HL-5140 that is connected via USB.
    At first I thought there might be a document converter problem but as I can print to 1 printer but not the other that might not be the situation.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    David

    Many thanks for your helpful advices!
    Now I know, that after 9.3.0 first must be installed 9.3.1 and second 9.3.2. I see, this was the error and not the en_US/german problem.
    I have prepared 3 screenshots of my Windows 7, to show you, that I have 3 Adobe Readers in my Adobe folder under C:\Program Files (x86).
    Please see snap0003.jpg with the three Adobe Readers. In snap0004.jpg can you see my Add or Remove Programs: Adobe Reader is not existing.
    In snap0005.jpg is a screenshot from Secunia PSI. I had the Adobe Reader 9.3.0 and they offer me the update to 9.3.2! That brings me an update error.
    But my problem is, how can I uninstall 2 of 3 Adobe Readers. What can you say me to this problem?
