Adobe Reader Fullscreen Preferences Second Monitor Only

Hey, I'm trying to set adobe reader to open in fullscreen mode on my second monitor instead of whatever monitor it's currently displayed on. I've looked through preferences, but the options for which monitor to use are descriptors like this monitor, biggest, widest, etc. Even if these options did somehow help, it doesn't save my choice and immediately reverts back to the this monitor option. I don't want adobe reader to open on my second monitor, I only want full screen to go to my second monitor. This appears to be an option in preferences, but it's appearing less and less possible.

I am also having this issue.
First PDF opens on second monitor. Second one I open will open on main laptop monitor and 3,4,5 etc the same.
Would like it to default full screen on second monitor for all PDF's.

  • How open Adobe Reader 9 in second monitor by default?

    How can I make Adobe Reader 9.0 open always in my second monitor?
    With version 8 it was at least possible to open the first document on the second monitor if I had moved the window in an previous session to that monitor and closed it there. The second and following documents always were opened in the first monitor (annoying!).
    What I want is, that ALL documents always open in the second monitor. How can I manage this?

  • All my Adobe Reader (PDF) files are opening only in the secondary monitor by default, as I am workin

    I am using Adobe 8 Professional and working on Windows XP. I have been facing an issue lately with opening files in a dual-monitor environment. All my Adobe Reader (PDF) files are opening only in the secondary monitor by default. There are times when I work only in one monitor and when I open a PDF file and want to have a look at it, I have to connect another monitor to view that file, since this file is open in the secondary monitor. It is very disappointing with such instances happening with Adobe (a leading organization). Can you please help so that the Adobe Reader files open in the primary monitor by default?

    On a Windows system disable the preview of Windows Explorer.

After I do this, the "Convert To" box goes "gray" and I am unable to convert the document I have selected.  It was working great for the first week that I used it, but now it doesn't give me the converting option.  I am very frustrated as I have done nothing to change anything, and I was thinking this was so great...now I am just pulling out my hair and do not have the option of calling anyone since no phone numbers are listed. I am VERY busy and do not have time to sit and wait over a half an hour to "chat", which I tried to do yesterday.  All I want to do is very simply, convert pdfs to Word.  I have paid for this and am not getting any help. I am not very savvy when it comes to Adobe this program and Adobe that program...I feel I am being scammed as I do not get simple answers for something that appeared was going to be simple. You can't even call customer service to talk to someone live to help walk you through. 

    Hello Kathie,
    Sorry for the inconvenience that has caused to you.
    Please let me know if you have tried converting any other PDF to word with Reader.
    Alos, please sign up at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/" using your Adobe ID credentials. Click on 'ExportPDF' tab and upload the PDF that you want to convert to Word.
    Let me know if this converts fine.
    Hope to hear from you.
    regards,
    Anubha

  • Installing AcrobatPro after removing Adobe Reader Safari displayed pdf urls only as a black page anymore

    After installing Acrobat Pro it installs in Library/Internet Plugin-ins/AdobePDFViewer.plugin version 11.0.03. Allthough after selecting a PDF-link it leads to a displays it not in Acrobat Pro, it diplays it as a black page in Safari. When I have a look in Acrobat Pro into the preferences/internet/webbrowser-option/PDF to show inBrowser with: isnt checked! And there is still listed/Application/Adobe Reader.app instead of /Applikation/Adobe Acrobat Pro!!
    There is no way to select this Applikation. Having a look at Lbrary/Preferences/com.adobe.acrobat.pdfviewer.plist listed:
    AdobePDFDriver file://localhost/Volumes/Sicherung%20laptop/Applications/Adobe/Adobe%20Acrobat% 209%20Pro/Adobe%20Acrobat%20Pro.app/
    ReaderInstallPath file://localhost/Applications/Adobe%20Reader.app/
    WebBrowserUsePath file://localhost/Applications/Adobe%20Reader.app/
    Has anyone changed the ReaderInstallPath file or WebBrowserUsePath file to the path of Acrobat Pro  and as a result a good diplay of PDF-urls in Arcobat Pro or Safari??
    Thankx, I hope my english isn´t to bad for a german apple-user!

    Thanks for the screenshot, Pat. I think the light bulb went off for me. I was looking over the tips for configuring Firefox at the link:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/display-pdf-browser-acrobat-xi.html
    And I think what confused me the most was this screen shot for plug-ins for Firefox mentioned Acrobat.
    I had Acrobat installed myself, but most of our users do not use Acrobat, since it's not a free product. I uninstalled Adobe Acrobat, and the Adobe Acrobat plug-in was still there, so that forced me to realize that the plug-in that comes with Adobe Reader 11.0.3 is called "Adobe Acrobat".
    I went into Tools->Options->Applications and selected "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)", rather than "Use Adobe Reader (default)".
    This now allows me to not only view PDFs within a browser window in Firefox, but it also enables the save icon (which "Use Adobe Reader (default)" was not allowing me to do:
    It's a shame that the default setting is not for "in browser", because our customers may have to make a configuration change.
    There is no way to programmatically force a configuration change on a user's browser, is there?

  • Adobe Reader 11 Closes Seconds After Openeing

    I have Adobe Reader 11 and it will open for a few second and then close automatically. I have windows 7. I have used Adobe's cleaning tool to remove all traces of the reader and then restarted my computer. I downloaded it again and reinstalled the reader. I restart my computer. I still have the issue. Please advise.

    Three 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)].
    It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

  • Is there any way in Adobe Reader to limit printing to only one page at a time?

    We have a large piece of internal knowhow in the form of a pdf document that we don't want users to be able to print in one go as it would risk the document leaving the premises. We are quite happy with users using print screen for single pages, but that doesn't really produce readable results.
    So ideally we'd like users to be able to select print, but when they do it should only allow 'print current page' or just print the first chosen page instead of the whole selection. For instance, selecting pages 123 - 145 should only print page 123.
    I've looked in to various areas already. We are delivering this document through a secured version of Adobe Reader via Citric application streaming, so are able to customise the config.js file any way we want, however I've looked through the Java Reference Guide and haven't been able to identify anything that might satisfy our requirement this.
    I've also looked in to Document Actions such as "Document will print", but again (perhaps due to a personal lack of programming knowledge) am unable to find a way to fix the print option to a single page.
    Any ideas/suggestions much appreciated.
    Kind regards,
    Kaan

    The sponsor is not happy for low res printing either. As an organisation we should be looking at DRM more closely, and we've added to the requirement with this problem. We are also going to look in to the option of attaching metadata and scanning that at our exit points (e-mail, printers, usb's, etc.) so that users have free reign internally but can't send sensitive documents out. Obviously it's all going to be very expensive!
    Cheers for the respones guys.

  • Second monitor only shows when I  open PPRO a second time.

    CS5 WIN7 - 64 Pro
    Looking for a suggestion /solution  to an issue I have had for some while.
    I have the latest Nvidia Drivers for QuadroFX3800 but the issue began at least two previous versions ago.
    I open PPRO and it does not see the second monitor. It is not an option in the Playback settings.  (Not even there / Not greyed out)
    In fact it shows an image briefly (flashes on then off) on the second monitor  then turns it off (ie. the image going to it from the source monitor.)
    I shut out of PPRO and re open it almost immediately.  Bingo.  2nd monitor shows and its is also an option in the PB menu.

    I think I'm right in sayng that Mosaic has been added to the latest driver, 267.05 - the ability to stretch the desktop across 2 monitors.  I haven't been aware of it before.
    I say that because, having toyed with Mosiac,  I noticed that PP CS5 did flicker a few times upon boot in a way that it didn't on earlier nVidia releases.
    It seems to have settled down now.
    Am I not right in thinking, shoternz, that you are using the 2nd monitor as your preview, rather than program monitor?  Maybe there's a corrolation.
    Get your BM Intensity Pro out of the cupboard!

  • Adobe Reader X dutch language, could only download old version 10.1.0 from adobe site

    Hi,
    We saw on the Adobe Security Bulletin often a new version of Adobe Reader X, the latest is version 10.1.4. When we want to download this new version in our own language (Dutch) to distribute the new software in our company. We only could download the old version 10.1.0. I was asking if this is correct or is the download site not good?
    I am looking forward to your reaction.
    Kind Regards,
    Eumir Teterissa

    It seems that for minor releases the full installer is only made available in a few selected languages (English, German, Spanish, French, Japanese).
    Maybe you could just deploy the non-language specific patch http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/10.x/10.1.4/misc/AdbeRdrUpd1014.msp

  • Blank windows from Adobe Reader X preferences, properties and more...

    Hello, I have blank windows from preferences, properties, print, edit ditcionary and many other items. I am using Adobe Reader X (10.1.1) and Windows 7 64bit Any suggestions? Thanks

    James,
    I'm sorry to hear that you were having the same problem under 9.5.  I had recently updated to Adobe Reader 10 under Windows 7 and yesterday my "default printer" simply disappeared from the options on my control panel.  I re-installed my printer, but today whenever I would open a PDF document and try to print it, the document would simply close with no further ado.  After a bit of trial and error, I ended up uninstalling Adobe Reader 10 and going back to Adobe Reader 9.5.  Now everything is working just fine.

  • Adobe Reader resets preferences after deployment

    Greetings to the Forum.
    Please can anyone direct me to resolving this problems.
    My oirignal MSI of 9.5 was used to integrate the MSP updates into it resulting in a deployable 9.5.4 version.
    However the MSI created showed all my previous preference settings which was what was required, but after deployment, the I guess updates reset it.
    Is there a string command somewhere to stop these updates changing the previous settings.
    Kind regards,

    The Admin and Wizard guides tell you how to customize deployments: www.adobe.com/go/acrobatetk.
    Without knowing what your updates order is, seeing your cmd line, and having a list of what preferences have changed, it's not possible to troubleshoot your problem.
    Here is some info that may help:
    Read the docs above.
    Admins usually create an MST file with the Wizard that which contains customizations.
    The update order is 9.5 > 9.5.1 > 9.5.2 > 9.5.3 > 9.5.4.
    OOC security updates do not change settings.
    There is no master switch to disable preference updates and updating with an MSI in the workflow and no MSI means that your customizations may be lost.
    hth,
    Ben

  • Adobe Reader crashes a few seconds or minutes after start. After uninstalling I cannot manage to install it anymore

    Hello. Since several days Adobe Reader XI crashes a few minutes or seconds after start. I tried to get an update but the computer does not react after the click on the setup-file. Finally I uninstalled Adobe Reader and Flash Player in order to install it new. The download from the Adobe Page worked but the setup does not start so I cannot install it. I also tried to it with Reader X but it does not work either.
    I have a Windows 8.1 notebook, Mozilla Firefox.
    Would be nice if anyone could give me some advice!

    Uninstall the current Reader using http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    then reinstall with the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    If the crash still occurs; try disabling Protected Mode in Adobe Reader [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

  • How to control Preferences setting in adobe Reader?

    Hi,
    Is there any way to control the adobe reader->security-> Preferences setting at run time at adobe livecycle server either by Javascript or API.
    I want to change the setting of the pdf before rendering forms to client desktop.
    Regards
    Sunil

    LiveCycle is designed to deliver content (including PDF's to the client) but it is not designed to control or manipulate client software settings, including Reader.  Furthermore, for security reasons, you cannot pass scripts in forms or PDF's that will modify Reader preferences, unless the form kicks off a script that is part of privileged code (i.e. trusted local script file or certified document).  Alternatively, the Reader installation can be tuned as per corporate requirements but that is usually done using a network push of the installer.
