Adobe reader does not update

Hi!
My Firefox constantly keeps claiming I need to update Adobe Acrobat. I have done it several time, using the file you link to. But no change. It is very annoying.

How do you get the message -- is the plugincheck page opening automatically when you start Firefox?
What version is being detected? (See attached example.)
Some program updates remain "pending" until you restart Firefox or even restart Windows. This depends on the conditions encountered by the software installer and you usually will get a message if a Windows restart is required.

Google search box in mid screen accepts text but is inactive. Adobe reader does not now function with Firefox. Both are new since update.Thanks

1. The google search box in the middle of the FF page accepts text but is not active since my update. The search bar box works.
2. Adobe reader does not seem to work with the new update. eg. Epost suggested I update Reader which I did but it still doesn't work. New since update. It works with Safari which I dislike or i would simply change.
Thanks
David

Does that box still Shows the Google text?
Try to use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
Current Firefox versions use the default search engine (pref: browser.search.defaultenginename) to set the search engine that is used on the about:home page.
Check the <b>browser.search.defaultenginename</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page and make sure that it is set to the default value Google.
*browser.search.defaultenginename
You can check if you still have the XML files of the default search engines including Google in the searchplugins folder in Firefox program folder.
If not then you need to reinstall Firefox.

Adobe Reader does not recognize file name (filename10.5.11.pdf) but does in Adobe Standard 9. Why?

I post documents to our Intranet site and found out recently that Adobe Reader does not recognize certain file names in PDF files. For instance, when trying to open a PDF file with the name
filename10.5.11.pdf in Adobe Reader, the web browser will not open the PDF and the display is blank.   When I'm using another computer with Adobe Standard 9, I do not have a problem opening the file.
I would like to know if anyone else has had a similar issue and why Reader will not recognize the file name and Standard does.

The version is Adobe Reader 10.1.0    I will request the latest version
and let you know if that fixes the problem
Actually I had changed the name of the file so our associates could access
the file (changed the . to a hyphen) It still made me wonder why Reader
wouldn't open it at that time.
Thanks again for you assistance and I will let you know if this resolves
the issue.
Regards,
Susan

Hi Susan,
Thanks for providing the information.
Could you also let me know what is the exact version of Adobe Reader on
your system. You can check the same y clicking on Help > About Adobe
Reader X.
In case its not 10.1.1, please try updating to the latest version and see
if the problem persists.
Also, does any other PDF with a different filename open in Internet
Explorer correctly?
Thanks
Ankit

Adobe Reader does not appear as a choice when I click on a PDF in email

When I open an email that has a PDF, then I click on the "Open With", Adobe Reader does not appear as a choice. I use an IPhone 4S.

Is your phone updated to iOS6?
When I press on the PDF icon at the bottom of an email message on the iPhone, I get a screen which shows "Open in Adobe Reader" along with icons of other readers I have installed which read PDF files.
Looks like this:

Adobe Reader Does Not Respond in Windows 8

I need to do a simple edit of a pdf. I've been editing pdfs using nothing but the free Adobe reader for years. Now I got a new laptop - 64 bit Windows 8 and I installed the current reader. I need the Adobe reader for other programs I work with. I have noticed that the adobe reader is slow to open and constantly says "not responding." I also cannot get it to respond so that I can fill in a form (i.e., a basic edit), which I could always do. Please tell me how to fix this!

I figured it out! I have Adobe Reader XI on my desktop. I opened it up. I went to Edit/Preferences/Security (Enhanced) and disabled the "Protected Mode at startup." My Adobe pdfs now respond and I can edit them without issue.

When I long tap on a doc to open ; open with adobe reader does not appear

Which app did you start with? Apple Mail, Safari, iBooks or something else?
Is a PDF document already open in other app? If so, you can tap the PDF document to display a toolbar in the app. Do you see the icon like this in the toolbar?
You can tap the icon to open a popup then tap "Open in..." or "Open in Adobe Reader". You may need to scroll to the right to find the red icon with "Open in Adobe Reader".
In Safari, tap "Open in..." (blue text) in the top toolbar, instead.
If you see something else on the screen, please let us know the name of the app.

Hi wellsfar,
Which version of Adobe Reader you are using?
Is it showing any error message?
A screenshot of the error would be more helpful.

Adobe Reader does not fully open

Adobe Reader does not fully open - it starts and then disappears - windows 7 - nothing is new

Yes, nothing is new...
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 registry script from https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=8yDBdUZCTE9FUcJJjZzHvQ
It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

Adobe Reader does not print more than 5 pages Toshiba E-Studio 232 in Windows 7

Adobe Reader does not print more than 5 pages Toshiba E-Studio 232 in Windows 7.
I contacted Microsoft representatives said the problem is the Acrobat Reader once all other applications print without problems.
Please help me!

We have the same problem with our TOSHIBA e-STUDIO6540C. We've tried different versions of adobe reader, even acrobat and many times it will only print some pages of any given document. Did you find a solution? To me it sounds like a toshiba issue but just wondering.

I have already tried re-installing Adobe Reader 9.3.4 and this had no effect. I am using Windows XP with SP3.

Adobe reader does not work properly

My adobe reader doesn not open articles. All I get is a blank gray screen and a small circle where it looks like the file is trying to load. The reader use to open files with no problem and then it just didn't work correctly

Hi Jaadbrown
You have two options to solve the problem:
1.- Remenber that every Mac can read all PDF format file with your "Preview App".
2.- You can uninstall your adobe reader deleting the App from your Aplication folder and download for free on the Official Adobe site in this link http://get.adobe.com/reader/?promoid=JZEFU
Good luck ... I hope it helps you!

Adobe Reader will not update from 11.0.0.6 to 11.0.0.7

I have tried installing the update to my Windows 8.1 machine, but it fails every time. When I right click and run as administrator from the download, it extracts, then pops up with:
"The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch."
From the Adobe ARM.log, there is an ERROR_SUCCESS that tells me it stayed at version 11.0.0.6.
From the AdobeSFX.log, there is a "Program finished with exit code:1642". (Which just tells me the same thing as the error pop up box.)
From the MSI Installation log there is this:
: Unknown\Absent: {AC76BA86-7AD7-0000-2550-7A8C40011007} - C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Setup\{AC76BA86-7AD7-1033-7B44-AB0000000001}\RDC\AdbeRdrUpd11007.msp
The upgrade cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade.

: MainEngineThread is returning 1642
I am testing the update before doing an enterprise rollout to Win8 and Win7 machines. I have tried the standalone update on other computers (Win7 and Win8) and I cannot get it to update.
I downloaded from here: Adobe - Adobe Reader Distribution Selecting Windows 8, English, and 11.0.0.7
From Administrative Command Line:
AdbeRdr11007_en_US.exe -nos_oC:\Users\$$$$$$$\Desktop\Reader -nos_ne
msiexec /a C:\Users\$$$$$$$\Desktop\Reader\Acroread.msi network location: \\$$$$$$$\apps\adobe\reader11_0_0_7\
msiexec /a \\$$$$$$$\apps\adobe\reader11_0_0_7\AcroRead.msi /p C:\Users\$$$$$$$\Desktop\Reader\AdbeRdrUpd11007.msp
This is not working either - which is not surprising considering that the update itself will not run. I can only guess that somehow the 11.0.0.6 update was incorrect somehow, but I have been using the same process to update the machines for more than 5 update cycles, so I am not sure what might have changed.
The point is, I do not want to do a complete uninstall and clean install on all of the machines in the company. Can anyone give direction with this?

I disagree about corrupted install. Every 11.0.6 pc in my enterprise also cannot upgrade to 11.0.7. We make AIPs following the same process for each patch. Something is not right with 11.0.7 MUI. I can create the AIP for 11.0.7 but cannot get the GPO to upgrade previous installations. I think something is seriously wrong with the 11.0.7 MUI msp
The upgrade cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade.
I am using the 11.0 MUI installer to create the AIP and then I patch the AIP with 11.0.7 MUI .msp file per normal practice like I always do. I am able to sucessfully create the 11.0.7 AIP without errors but none of my 11.0.6 MUI clients will upgrade successfully and are left at 11.0.6.
Something is broken with the 11.0.7 MUI .msp file.
Like I said, we do this the same way each time depending on quarterly update or security update and it ALWAYS works fine. This is well documented. We are following the exact same steps and something is seriously wrong with the new 11.0.7 MUI .msp file. It will not properly upgrade 11.0.6 MUI installations.
We are using the 11.0 MUI as the base for slipstreaming the new 11.0.7 MUI patch.
STEPS:
1. Download AdbeRdr11000_mui_std.zip and extract to temp directory.
2. Run: msiexec /a c:\aip\temp\acroread.msi TARGETDIR="c:\aip\11.0.7"
3. Copy the AdbeRdrUpd11007_MUI.msp patch to c:\aip\11.0.7\
4. Run: msiexec /a c:\aip\11.0.7\acroread.msi /p c:\aip\11.0.7\AdbeRdrUpd11007_MUI.msp
5. Choose c:\aip\11.0.7 as the installation folder
6. When completed Copy c:\aip\11.0.7 to \\servername\AIP\
7. Configure GPO to upgrade over the top of existing installation of previous GPO 11.0.6 MUI using the correct UNC folder
This has worked every time other than this 11.0.7 MUI msp file. It will not upgrade 11.0.6 installations.

Adobe reader XI not updating to Adobe Acrobat DC

I see that my Adobe reader XI (11.0.10) is not updating to Adobe Acrobat DC.
Is that because they are different channels?
Should I shift to Adobe Acrobat DC? If so, what are the extra features does it offer over my current Adobe reader XI.

Hi Bunny ,
I would like to tell you about both the software .Adobe Reader is a software meant to view files .It is a free software from Adobe .
If you want to upgrade to Adobe Reader DC (that is different from Acrobat DC ) you could uninstall the present Acrobat XI version and install the latest Adobe Reader DC .
And yes ,they are different software that is the reason you could not upgrade from Adobe Reader XI to Acrobat DC .
Whereas Acrobat ( be it any version ,the latest Acrobat DC or any prior version ) is a paid software from Adobe .Acrobat is required to view and edit PDF' .
It is available in two flavors ,i .e Acrobat DC pro and Acrobat DC standard .You could either opt for Acrobat DC monthly subscription or opt for an annual one .
Here's is a list of some of the new features in Acrobat DC and pricing policy .
Plans and pricing: Compare plans | Adobe Acrobat DC
You could refer the following document to get more information about Acrobat DC .

Adobe Reader does not work-how to use adobe reader on Lion

I was trying to print an international label on eBay via Adobe Reader, and was very dissapointed and shocked that it does not work on Lion.
I was so happy that I figured out how to use adobe reader on Lion, and hope I can help anyone else who is frusterated too.
Step 1. Download Google Chrome
Step 2. Printe your international label, or whatever you need to do that uses Adobe Reader

Thanks Shelly! I too was having trouble and thought it was something wrong with my Mac. I still have a big though. When I try to print the saved pdf file, I get a pop-up that says "The document could not be printed. There are no selected pages to print" even though I am looking at the complete doc. It's there and in my print prompt "all pages" are selected to print. The way I got around this, is by emailing the pdf file to a gmail address and viewing the attachment via Google Docs. It loads perfectly and prints without a problem.

Urgent: Adobe Reader does not attach pdf-files to standard e-mail software any more!

Hello,
Situation:
Windows XP Pro; SP3
Office 97
Thunderbird
Adobe Acrobat Reader
When I want to attach a pdf-file directly from Adobe Reader to a new Thunderbird e-mail it starts ALL OF A SUDDEN the setup-assistant for Microsoft Exchange / Outlook! Why? I have no clue (:
It worked fine until 3 days ago.
Thunderbird is the standard e-mail software and it works for example fine if I click on an address in the internet. Thunderbird opens a new mail.
I tried to uninstall Adobe Reader and installed it again (restart computer / ccleaner) but this failure still occurs!
Does anybody know what to do please? It is really urgent because I need that function all the time... (:
By the way: I do not work with Outlook; it is not configured.
Thank you very much!

> ALL OF A SUDDEN...
What happened between when it worked correctly 3 days ago, and the time it stopped working as expected?
Check Control Panel | Internet Options | tab Programs; to what is the E-mail option set?
If it is already correctly showing Thunderbird, then try a System Restore to a date when it still worked correctly.
