Adobe Reader incompatible with Windows Internet Explorer 9

I recently installed the update for Windows Internet Eexplorer 9 on my laptop (Vista Home Premium) and have installed the latest Adobe Reader as well.
After installing Windows IE 9 I found that I was not able to view any letters etc online where Adobe Reader was required.
I tried all the suggestions in the associated help screen to no avail, so I finally 'uninstalled'  the Windows I E 9 update and magically I was once again able to view online letters etc.
I am wondering why the latest Adobe Reader is incompatible with Windows I E 9?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I believe IE9 is not supported with Reader9, but everything should work as usual. I have both on my machine and am able to use them without any problem.
Try repairing Reader from Programs in Control Panel.
Kindly refer to System Requirement section in http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/837/cpsid_83708/attachments/Acrobat_Reader_ReleaseNote_9.5.pdf

  • Adobe reader 5 with windows 7?

    I'm told AR 5 is incompatible with windows 7 is there any fix?@

    First, you cannot have two Reader versions on the same system.
    If you are happy to have only Reader 5, you can try to run it under Windows 2000 or XP Compatibility Mode.  No guarantee it will work.
    You can download it from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobatreader/win/5.x/ - ar500enu.exe and ar505enu.exe being the English versions.
    Another way, if you don't need to use it too often, is to run a copy of XP on Virtual PC.

  • Adobe Photoshop Incompatible with Windows 7 ?

    I typically do not have problems installing Microsoft products, Corel products, HP products, AV software, dozens of other companies products on my Windows 7 Home Premium computer. I have never had problems installing Adobe products on ME, XP, Vista. However, every recent Adobe product I have purchased have failed to install on Windows 7 Home Premium and it typically takes support several hours to fix, if it can be fixed at all. It involves creating new accounts, disabling services, disabling the UAC, doing partial restarts (I did not even know those existed) and normal restarts, etc (I do have administrative rights on my account(s)).
    Today I was working with customer support (taking control of my desktop). We did not succeed to install Adobe Photoshop Elements 9.
    During the installation a windows dialog box was displayed which stated that the Adobe installation .exe file was incompatible with Windows UAC.
    There is clearly something wrong with the Adobe installer because Adobe products are the only products that cannot be installed.
    Why is it so difficult tp install Adobe products on a Windows 7 system?
    Does anyone know what is going on?
    Is the Adobe installer really incompatible with Windows 7 as the Windows dialog box stated?
    Thomas

    Thank you for your help all three of you,
    I finally succeeded to install.
    I was using the downloaded version (not the DVD), I should have mentioned that. I did two things. I turned off the UAC (as suggested) and I moved the installation files from my user account folder where they were placed by default (I initially just accepted the default). The user account was protected despite my administrative rights, which is why install using setup.exe in the user account location failed. I have a feeling that I would not have had to turn off the UAC or move the files out of the user account folder if I had run as administrator. I'll remember that next time. It is funny customer support did not see this.
    Anyway, now it is installed

    start here (and untick mcafee unless you're certain you want it), http://get2.adobe.com/reader/
    that link should display your os and language and offer a compatible version.

  • Compatibility of Adobe Reader XI with Windows 8, 64 bit version appears to be a problem. Ideas?

    Whenever, I load Adobe XI (which seems to be the only version compatible with Windows 8, I get a "No default mail client" error. has anyone found a solution? Is Adobe working on a fix?
    (I use a Dell Lattitude E6530 notebook with Windows 8 and Microsoft Office 2013 64 bit version installed).
    Your replies appreciated.

    You can get previous versions of reader from: http://get.adobe.com/reader/otherversions/
    Regarding your problem, you need to send some more information like the machine RAM usage and CPU usage when Reader 11 freezes. A screenshot would help.
    Does other applications work correctly on your machine?

  • Strange FONT in Adobe Reader 9 with Windows 7

    If a pdf was made from a word document or anything other than a scan the font is very strange, not default arial (see attached picture).  I had this problem in reader X adn downgraded adn still have the problem.  WHen this document is opened in gogle docs or on another computer the font is arial.  Thanks for your help.

    I have the same issue in multiple documents on Windows 7 with Adobe Reader X 10.1.0.  Multiple others on my team can open the same files and do not have the issue.  I have done a terse check and we have similar installed programs, etc.
    Since I am not creating the documents, I have no control over how they are created.  Also, I seem to have the issue on my computer and others do not.
    Is there any way to troubleshoot font substitutions?  Is there any way to verify fonts?  Certainly I can see some fonts are not embedded in a sample I have, but I cannot see any way to know what font was specified and which was picked.  If I could find out that, I may delete the strangely spaced one so a better choice is picked.  It picks this odd font for what should be Arial...I think...but I am not sure. On this one sample doc I was able to get the creator to embed all fonts and it looks correct on my machine.  However the previous version without embedded fonts shows like this:
    Here is what it should look like:
    Both version look fine on other machines.
    Properties on bad font substitution version (I expect the circled are the issue):
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Adobe Reader 11freezes with Windows 8 64 bit

    Adobe 10 worked fine with Windows 8. After I upgraded Reader to 11 it started to freeze. It will download a PDF about a tenth of the way and then just freeze. Have to go to Taxk Manager to get out of the program. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times and this does not clear the problem. Sometimes, if i reboot my computer, it will work but one time only then it starts to freeze up again. Two questions, is there a fix and if not, how do I get back to Reader 10?

  • Adobe Reader 9.1 and Internet Explorer 8.0 pdf link crash

    I have three PC's running XP Pro SP3, with Adobe Reader 9.1.
    On one of these systems, pdf files can be loaded, but when I click on pdf links in web pages, the browser crashes.
    If someone could please help me by defining what further information might be helpful in troubleshooting this, I'd be most appreciative.  A definite clue is probably provided by this comment in application event viewer:
    Faulting application iexplore.exe version 8.0.6001.18702 faulting module acrord32.dll, version 9.1.0.163, fault address 0x000d51b6
    Thanks so much for any help!
    Peter

    I actually backed out Adobe 9 and installed Adobe 8 and that resolved my issue of IE crashing when trying to open an Adobe file.
    I tried everything before doing this.  From backing out IE 8 to 7 and just reinstalling Adobe 9 and continued to have the same problem.

  • I would like to have a password required before using Firefox as there is available with Windows Internet Explorer and Chrome.

    As it is known for every one the danger of the internet for kids with out parents watching them so I need a password.

    How do you require a password for IE and Chrome? (I think there is an add-on available to add this feature to Chrome.)
    If you have your children sign on to Windows using their own username and password, you can easily control which programs they run: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Prevent-children-from-using-specific-programs
    I'm not aware of any startup password add-ons for Firefox, but there are filters available, such as [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/foxfilter/ FoxFilter] (I haven't tried it myself).

  • My Comcast e-mail now only works with Windows Internet Explorer-is this a Microsoft/Comcast collaboration to get people to switch to Explorer?

    Firefox opens the Comcast e-mail window and inbox is visible,. but you can't open the e-mails. Their Customer service told me I have to use Explorer, which does indeed work. Also, Explorer scales the page automatically to full size.
    I really don't want to switch to Explorer unless I absolutely have to, so when is this issue going to be resolved?

    use an extension like IE Tab or IE View to use the IE rendering engine in Firefox.

  • Not Compatible with Windows Internet Explorer 7

    I just upgraded to IE 7 and I must say it is great! One minor downside is that anything that requires Quicktime 7 (movies, etc.) doesn't work in the browser. It says that the plugin can't be launched or something like that.
    I have QT version 7.1.3 installed....

    I have the exact same problem. How did you solve it? Thanks.
