Adobe reader installed but not recognised

Adobe reader says it was successfully installed but every time an internet site requires it, it says it cannot be detected and an 'Adobe Reader 8.2 or later needs to be installed'. I have installed about 6 times now and it never works! I have a mac version 10.6.8. Please help me, I am so frustrated.

I had a similar problem just now and what worked for me was i archived a email in MS outlook using the Adopbe PDF dropdown menu and then I had full access to X Pro again.
Hope that this helps

  • Xfdf and pdf works in Adobe Reader 6, but not with new versions 7, 8, X

    I have a xfdf file which is created by querying a SQL data base and contains data for a pdf form; it works with Adobe Reader 6, but does not work with new versions of Adobe Readers (7, 8, 9 and X).
    It is an intranet site running IIS 6.0 in Windows Server 2003 Web Edition SP2 with Adobe 6 installed and client systems include XPSP2, XPSP3, Vista, Windows 7 with different versions of IE, Firefox.
    With new versions of Adobe Reader, click on the hyperlink launched the pdf form in a browser window without data; below is the link:
            // create shipping slip hyperlink
            string strLtrSlipUrl = "~/Archive/LtrShipSlip.pdf#FDF=" + lblWO.Text + "LtrShipSlip" + ".xfdf";
            HyperLink hlLtrShipPdf = new HyperLink();
            hlLtrShipPdf.Text = "Ltr Shipping Slip";
            hlLtrShipPdf.NavigateUrl = strLtrSlipUrl;
            hlLtrShipPdf.Target = "_blank";
            pnlLtrShipSlip.Controls.Add(hlLtrShipPdf);
    I have installed new versions of Adobe Reader in the Web server (to match what the clients are using), but results are the same – blank pdf.
    I uninstalled the new versions and installed version 6 and the pdf and xfdf worked happily together, but we need new versions of Adobe Reader in the client computers.
    Thanks for helps and suggestions – I have read articles about using iTextSharp to create pdf documents from .NET apps, but that would be my last choice.

  • 2 medical softwares often can't open pdf, just after the adobe reader install but IExplorer succeded

    Hello,
    We have two softwares ( medical application) which open pdf via adobe reader XI.
    Theses softwares often can't open pdf, just after the adobe reader install( using adobeArCleaner+Customisation Wizard XI).
    At this point Internet Explorer is ok to open pdf with adobe reader...
    We have to launch manually adobe reader once on the computer to make the two applications to manage openning pdf
    Launching adobe reader seems to finish the installation...
    Did the editors have to put an "option" when they open pdf ( to act like Internet Explorer...) ?
    Thanks

    I am very glad to have a so rapid answered!
    Sorry I was not precise...
    When the file should open,
    for one application an error is happening,
    for the other application which is a "web" application, an other window ( not "web") opens with adobe reader and the pdf document ( the expected behavior is to open adobe reader and the pdf file in the web window already opened)
    I think that the file association is ok, if we double clik on a pdf, adobe reader is opening and then the file is opening  in adobe reader window...
    If I open Internet Explorer and I search for a pdf on the web, It is openning in the same window web.
    But something seems not finish for the medical softwares...

  • PDF files opens in Adobe Reader  9 but not Adobe Acrobat Pro 9

    After one of my users digitally signs a PDF file, and saves it, he cannot open it again.
    He gets either a reference memory error or a Font Capture error.
    I can open the same PDF file with Adobe Reader 9 and Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.
    If  I take the same file to a system with Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 - same error on the same file.
    Happens to my administrator account as well.
    Acrobat Pro 9 version: 9.4.1
    Adobe Reader version: 9.4.1
    Acrobat Pro 8 version: 8.2.5
    Windows XP SP3
    IE 7
    Acrobat Pro 9 has been completely uninstalled, the system rebooted, and the software reinstalled.
    Customer's profile has been rebuilt.
    The error message in the event log are:

    So the option was already checked when opened the document. I went ahead and unchecked, closed, reopened just to test and it's still not displaying correctly.
    In response to Bill@VT. The image is on top of a white background so I can't tell if there is space there or not, it's just all white.
    She showed me another document that's doing something similar today. This time the pdf was done with a green background and now the background shows as white. It was created the same way with Indesign and it shows fine in Reader and the Windows preview pane just not Acrobat. I'm trying to get the user to find the installation media so I can remove and reinstall, but I'm not sure if she will be able to find it.

  • Adobe Flash installed but not showing up in Plug-Ins?

    Before this happened, every time I would download the latest version of Flash it would show up in Chrome Plug-Ins. I have Version 17 installed but it's not showing up anymore, there's only 1 file when there used to be 2...and when I attempt to watch a video that requires Flash it tells me to upgrade when I already have the latest version... Help?

    It looks like you have the correct Flash Player and that it's enabled.  Since you have Flash Player, usually the thing that's going on is that the website either has faulty code that detects the presence of Flash Player (each website has code that does this), or if you're seeing it everywhere, it's typically a plug-in or extension that prevents that kind of code from working as written. 
    Have you installed any ad-blocking or anti-tracking plugins (AdBlock Pro, Ghostery, etc)?
    In rare instances Chrome can get damaged, but a fresh install will usually clear that up.  That's the nuclear option though.

  • Adobe reader installed but programs refusing to acknowledge.

    Greetings,
    I have numerous educational programs which have resources in pdf format that since i have updated my version of adobe reader from 9 to X(latest update) refuse to open. All of these programs worked perfectly fine using adobe reader 9
    The messages i get from each program are all variations on "you do not have an application installed that can read documents with the pdf extension"
    All the programs have a graphical front end to them through which you navigate to the desired topic, click the link of the resource and it would normally open in reader since it should be picking up pdf files. They are part of the boardworks and heinemann product families if anyone reading this is into education.
    Im running windows 7 sp1 32bit and abobe reader x 10.1.0.. Have already tried a reinstall..
    Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.

  • I have Adobe reader installed, but can't open pdfs in Firefox and it doesn't show in the Applications tab.

    When I click on a pdf link, the new tab opens but doesn't show the content of the pdf. There is no error message. When I look under Tools, Options, applications, there is no option for handling pdfs. I have the Adobe reader for Firefox installed.
