Adobe Reader 9.5.4 comes up with error 1402

I am trying to update Adobe Readers 9.5.4 to the latest version, it comes up with error 1402 could not open key HKEY_LOCAL_MCHINE 32\software\classes\CLSID........ Type lib. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key. or contact your support personel.  I have tried to uninstall Adobe Reader 9.5.4 and the same message comes up.  Any suggestions on how to fix this.  I am using Windows Vista on my laptop...

Try running the cleaner tool http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html before reinstalling.

  • I downloaded the Adobe Reader but it would not install with error message "running scripts"

    Okay, Adobe XI and 7 show on the "control panel add or remove programs", but none of the adobe items show when I go to the start menu all programs.  I CANNOT remove from add or remove programs and an error message comes up.  I was hoping I could remove the XI and reinstall X, also.
    When I do a "search" for the C drive there are several Adobe programs.
    I guess we need to first of all find out why the XI does not want to install????????????????
    Thank you for your time.

    You can try using this tool to remove all traces of Reader:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, download the full offline Reader installer for the version you want from 
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    and run it immediately after restarting your computer.

    RR,
    One thing often tried first is to create a new document and File>Place the corrupted one to see how much may be rescued that way (remember to tick Paste remembers Layers in the Layer palette flyout/dropdown first, and to untick it afterwards).
    Here is a website where you can see whether it can rescue the file, and if it can, you may pay for a subscription to have it done,
    http://www.recoverytoolbox.com/buy_illustrator.html
    and another similar website,
    http://markzware.com/adobe-software/fix-illustrator-file-unknown-error-occurred-pdf2dtp-fi le-recovery/
    As far as I remember, the former is for Win and the latter for Mac.
    Here are a few pages about struggling with it yourself:

    Failing a full recovery, hopefully you have one or more earlier versions and/or bits of artwork saved before it happened.

    Are you referencing your Photoshop image files, or Photoshop application files?
    If the latter, cease and desist at once!
    Always install Photoshop from scratch, from the original media: CD/DVD or download.
    If the former, please provide details:
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    Note that this is boilerplate text.
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    etc.,
    someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).
    a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.

  • Cannot embed pdfs in MS Word doc which are PDF Version 1.3 (Acrobat 4.x) [This is associated with Adobe Reader 9]. Getting 'program not installed' error.

    Cannot embed pdfs in Word doc which are PDF Version 1.3 (Acrobat 4.x) [This is associated with Adobe Reader 9]. Getting 'program not installed' error.
    Pdfs with other versions are okay:
    Tested successfully with Adobe Pro 9 (Version 1.5 (Acrobat 6.x)), Reader X (Version 1.4 (Acrobat 5.x)) and XI (Version 1.6 (Acrobat 7.x))
    Also cannot open embedded pdfs which have been embedded with this version (getting a similar error).
    Importantly I have removed/disabled all security options in Adobe Reader, following numerous internet suggestions from Adobe and elsewhere. This does not fix the problem.
    Currently the work around is to re-save the pdf with something other than Adobe Reader 9 (so the version updates), but we would prefer not to do this for all the old pdfs we have.
    Thank you,
    Louise.

    Could you please email me the document on which you are seeing this issue at [email protected] ?
    Please mention the forum thread link as well in the mail for the reference.

  • I've deleted Adobe Reader 11 and rebooted and reinstalled Adobe Reader 11 and I still get the error message that 'Adobe Reader is blocked because it is out of date'. Using Windows XP with the latest updates (SP3).

    I've deleted Adobe Reader 11 and rebooted and reinstalled Adobe Reader 11 and I still get the error message that 'Adobe Reader is blocked because it is out of date'. Using Windows XP with the latest updates (SP3).

    Screenshots attached to email replies will not make it back to the forum; you need to login to the forum and post it in your topic using the camera icon in the editor.
    Google Chrome is a problem:
    if you use Chrome's own PDF viewer, the results are unpredictable.
    if you use the Adobe Reader plugin with Chrome, it may reject (block) it if it is not the latest version.  Reader 11.0.08 is the latest version for Windows XP, but Chrome may insist on the current version 11.0.10.
    My suggestion; use a different browser!

    Can Adobe Reader on my iPad display PDFs with layers?

    Hi,
    Currently, Acrobat DC mobile products (for iOS and Android) do not support any changes to layer visibility.  So you are not able to turn on or off layers in a PDF document using Acrobat DC for iOS.
    Would you file a feature request?

    Our Product Management team will take your feature request into consideration for a future release.

    I am using Adobe Reader X on a laptop with Windows Vista OS and Adobe Reader XI on an older laptop with Windows XP OS.  While filling out the same form on each computer, I have found that I can save info on the older laptop, but not on the newer one.  This is a big problem.  I must be able to save on the newer computer.  Do I need to buy a new computer with a more up-to-date OS?  Please help.

    Adobe Reader X can only save reader-enabled forms. Adobe Reader XI can save all forms.

  • I can't get adobe reader x to copy a column with the alt key, can someone help me.

    I can't get adobe reader x to copy a column with the alt key, can someone help me.

    Hello Pat,
    Thank you for getting back to me.  I have a table with columns in it and I’m trying to copy just one of the columns, think of it as a stock table you would get in a newspaper and I just want to copy the column that has all the symbols in it.  I use to be able to do this with no problem in previous versions of Adobe Reader by just putting my cursor next to the column I wanted, holding down the Alt key and selecting the data I wanted .  But with the new version that came with my new laptop running Window 8.0 I can not  accomplish this task.  Adobe Reader wants to copy everything in the table.  I would take a screen shot to show you, but when I open Reader, it takes over my entire screen and I can not get back to my task bar or desktop without closing the app.  If you could also tell me how to correct or adjust this annoyance I would appreciate it.   Needless to say I’m not currently a big fan of the new version of Reader.  Is there any way I can go back to a previous version of the product with Windows 8 as my OS?
    Thanks you for your help with this,
    Ed
