Adobe Reader 9.0 Help/F1 NOT working

I have Adobe Reader 9.0 installed to a server. Client machines access and run it from the server, e.g. \\
\...\reader\acrord32.exe %1. With version 9 this setup works fine except when I hit F1 or menu "Help;Adobe Reader 9 Help". Any tips/suggestions?! Many thanks!

It has never been supported. If this is the worst thing that happens,
be very happy.
Almost all modern software needs to be installed properly on each
machine to work properly. Large enterprises deal with this by using
deployment tools. Unfortunately the information on deployment for the
new Reader are not yet released.

Adobe Reader 'Attach to Email' is not working

I have a client that is running Windows 7 and when opening a PDF with Adobe Reader is unable to use the "Attach to Email" function. We tried this with Adobe X, Adobe 9.3, Adobe 9.4.2. None of these will work. An error occurs: "Acrobat is unable to connect to your email program." We get the same error on any of these versions. For some reason Adobe 9.3.4 upgrade does not install with 9.3, where I read in a resource discussion that this version should work ion Windows 7.
Adobe Reader X seems to be a known issue with Windows 7 for this problem. My client recently upgraded from Windows XP and did not have this problem on that OS. A current work-around is to save the PDF then attach it to an email, but she would greatly prefer to use the Attach to Email function within Adobe Reader without having to save the PDF and manually attach it.
Thanks for any help!

I have the same issue using Acrobat X and Thunderbird 3.1.6 on Windows 7. Attach to email function is NOT working.
It worked when I had outlook 2007 installed, but I couldn't find where to change the setting to thunderbird.
I uninstalled outlook. Now the attach to email feature won't work at all.
Thunderbird is set to the default email client in windows . . . this is extremely annoying!!
File > Attach to email . . . It appears this feature doesn't work with any emails client except outlook??????
Attach to email worked on WinXP for Lotus Notes 8.5 email client (maybe an older Adobe Reader, version 9.4), but not after we upgraded to Win7. No Adobe Reader versions we have tried will work on Win7 for Lotus Notes.

Adobe Reader XI (11.0.04) not working on Windows 8

Hello,
All of the sudden Adobe reader XI (11.0.04) stopped working on my computer running Windows 8. When opening any .pdf it opens then stops responding then just closes by itself. No error messages or anything. I have tried uninstalling & reinstalling, running is compatibility modes or as admin, and turning off protected mode. All of these had no affect on the issue. Is there any available fix for this or an available version that is working on Windows 8?
Thank you Adobe community,
Brad

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

I have OS X version 10.9.2 and I updated Adobe Reader but now it does not work.

I have tried to uninstall and reinstall but it cant even finish doing that. HELP. I need it back working ASAP
This is the message I get: "Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser"

Have you done what the message told you to do?
Go to your applications, find Reader, open it, agee to the EULA.

Adobe reader new download 10.x not working

help - new program not resp
onding !

I am also having issues with it. I tried to open it while online to see my employment packets. Not recognized and not working at all when working online.
I have noticed that if your using IE and none of the other browsers.. it works just fine. Yet if you use the other browsers... It will not be recognized. This issue needs to be resolved to use on all browsers as I do not like IE. It gets too many bugs.

Adobe reader "save as" function is not working

screen tells me the adobe folder is empty and that the "save as" function is malfunctioning when I try to download pdfs from a particular site. If I'm using EI - it freezed EI on the blank download screen. I have deleted and redownloaded Adobe Reader but that didn't fix the problem. Any idea where the problem lies?

"screen tells me the adobe folder is empty" - exactly what do you mean by the "adobe folder" and what does the screen tell you?
"the save as function is malfunctioning" - exactly what happens?
Please give messages in full. Please give your system and version of Adobe Reader.
What is EI?

Adobe Reader DC Disable_Repair Registry key not working.

Hello friendly helpy folks.
I am installing Adobe Reader DC in a Citrix and RDS environment. I have successfully installed it as a MSI with the transform generated by the Customisation Wizard. However the "Repair Installation" function still needs to be hidden. Searching the interweb gave me this link Installer settings which says that the registry key Disable_Repair should hide it in all versions later than 10.x, however it doesn't. I also tried the HideMenuItems.js to no avail.
Has anyone had any luck with either of these methods? Or can anyone point to me to a solution?
Thanks in advance.
Joe.

I referenced the ETk to get everything turned off except does anyone have any idea how to disable the "store and share files in the document cloud" piece in the tools pane?

I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!

I need help with a PDF file that is an image, the "Read Out Loud' option does not work, please help!

You mean an image such as a scanned document?
If that is the case, the file doesn't contain any text for Reader Out Loud to read. In order to fix that, you would need an application such as Adobe Acrobat that does Optical Character Recognition to convert the images to actual text.
You can also try to export the file as a Word document or something else using ExportPDF which I believe offers OCR and is cheaper than Acrobat.

PSE 10 and Adobe CS6: When running silent install help is not working afterwards

Hello,
I'm not sure if this is the correct forum. If not: Please help me find the correct one.
I have a big issue with Adobe CS6 (and former versions like Photoshop Elements 10): When installing it from DVD running GUI everything is working fine afterwards. If I install e.g. Photoshop Elements 10 using "Silent Installation" help is not working afterwards. It states that it cannot locate the URL. I have not installed AIR and also do not plan to install it.
I have 'played' a little around with Common Files\Adobe\helpcfg and help directory. Now at least I do not get an error message but still it's not the online help which opens in the browser but the web page that is defined as 'home'.
The same I see now in Adobe CS6. I have e.g. packaged After Effects and Illustrator and when deploying it I'm not able to open help as well and I fear that this is the same issue.
Has anyone deeper knowledge about how "helpcfg" is working? Any example files? Any other help appreciated as well.
Kind regards
János

@hannilator Have you checked the exceptions folder contents for instructions on how to push to logged off computers? Here's what I get when I package CS6 (DesignWebPrem) and excude AIR/CHC:
After you have deployed the package, separately install the products in the exception folder.
IMPORTANT: Before you install the products in the exception folder, refer to the following Adobe Knowledgebase article for information on installing these products and configuring the settings correctly:
http://www.adobe.com/go/aamee_exceptions
NOTE: The installation commands provided below will work when the user is logged in to the client machine where the package is being deployed. For the scenario where the user is not logged in, prefix the following string to the command:
sudo launchctl bsexec `ps auwwx |grep [l]oginwindow | awk '{ print $2 }'`
As an example, here is the command to install "Adobe AIR" when the user is not logged in to the client machine (assuming Adobe AIR is part of the package):
sudo launchctl bsexec `ps auwwx |grep [l]oginwindow | awk '{ print $2 }'` Adobe\ AIR\ Installer.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe\ AIR\ Installer -silent

When trying to print, adobe reader 11.0.07 keeps "Not responding" for 2 - 5 minutes before finally working? I have tried uninstalling and re-installing but same problem. What is going on? I have windows 7

First of all, why did you say yes to Nero Back up before researching what it does with files already on the HDD? When I install Nero, the Back Up is the first thing I disable, it is a nagging pain, there are much better backup programs available. There are several file recovery programs out there to recover deleted files, that is, if that is what happened. Also, if you haven't overwritten the files, so you should be able to find them.

Adobe photoshop elements 12 organizer works, but adobe photoshop elements 12 editor does not work--it thinks it is a trial version

adobe photoshop elements 12 organizer works, but adobe photoshop elements 12 editor does not work--it thinks it is a trial version.HELP
If I try to register 4 boxes circle endlessly.Why should I have to register editor separately from organizer?

jaroFocb'15 wrote:
This is almost the same as the problem I had. I'm my case the Editor installed but not the Organizer! Adobe chat told me they no longer have chat or any other services for Elements 12. I guess they want people to buy their new Elements 13, but that leaves us in a bad place and doesn't say much for how Adobe cares about their customers After it moves on to their next version. I posted a message like yours over a week ago, and only got one email from an Adobe staff person, asking me to answer a couple of clarifying questions, but he never followed up on my response, so my problem is still unresolved. If you are luckier and are given a solution please let me know what it is -- it might work for me too, and I'd be very grateful! My email: [email protected]
Good luck.
Have you checked whether you have folder for PSE Organizer? It is normally at this location in Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1:
<C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 12 Organizer>
If the folder is there then try double-clicking on the file called: PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe
If the folder isn't there at all then you need to re-install the package again using your original disks or from download from Adobe website. <Download Photoshop Elements products | 13, 12, 11, 10>
Hope this helps.

Adobe Reader 8.x Help vs. Windows default browser

Why following any Web link within Adobe Reader 8.1 Help
invokes unconditionally start of Internet Explorer ?
The fact what browser is set as default one is being ignored during this !!!
Strange strategy of Adobe.

The fact that URL links from within Adobe Reader always launch Internet Explorer instead of the default browser, say Firefox, seems be a common problem from within the Reader, not just within the Help (Google Adobe Reader default browser").
Last year Adobe's own tech note declared it "a rare problem and there is no known solution":
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_15579
and the rpoblems continue in relation to Vista [HTML links don't open in default web browser on Windows Vista (Adobe AIR)]:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb403122
It also seems to have been a problem for long time going back to early versions of Mozilla Firefox 1.06. Various forums say that it's just a matter of using Start | Set Program Access and Defaults, and choosing "Use default browser" or forcing Firefox to be the default. I found that neither method worked.

http://www.velocityreviews.com/forums/t219716-adobe-reader-6.html
The solution I chose to make URL links in PDFs trigger my Firefox browser reliably was to dump Adobe Reader and install the faster and smaller Foxit Reader (http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/rd_intro.php). The only change you need to make inside Foxit is to tick the "Create links from URLs" tickbox under Edit | Preferences | General.
