Adobe Reader Just quit

Starting this morning Adobe reader has quit working.
I have version 10.0.1 on an HP running Windows XP with
service pack 3 .
When Adobe loads I get an error message " Adobe has encountered a problem and must shut down.......'
When I go to the Adobe website and try to load a new version or retrofit to ver 9 I get a message from the install manager: 'You already have a version installed...installation of this will cease...'
(Error messages are not word for word)
I go to 'Add and Remove programs' and try to remove Adobe reader and I also get error message and the system will not remove the program.

Manually remove it following the instructions here:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/400/kb400728.html
Then download and re-install Reader X

Adobe Reader X (10.1.1) Invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit.

This is the second time this has happen.
My system consists of the following:
PC running Windows 7 w/64bit
When I try to open a .pdf Iget a pop-up within 10 seconds say Invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit.
I paid the $39.00 from tech support to get this fixed in Aug. 2011 and now it's back.
I have gone through all the Adobe hoops and nothing has worked.

Hi,
Do you have any 3rd party plugin installed for Adobe Reader? If not, close all running instances of Adobe Reader and delete the entire folder at: C:\program Files\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\plug_ins.
Now goto Control Panel > Programs and Features. Locate the entry for Adobe Reader X and chose to repair the installation.
If you do have a 3rd party plugin installed, try uninstalling them and see if the issue is related to the same. If it works, do let me know which plugins were causing the issue so that I can have a look.
Hopefully, this should fix things.
Thanks

Using Adobe 11 reader, now comes up with an error, once file is opened. 'Invalid plugin detected, Adobe reader will quit. Closes the program so cannot view PDF files. Running windows 7. I have uninstalled and re-installed Adobe still the same. HELP

Sounds like something has been added into the Reader folder. I would recommend uninstalling, running http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html, removing any left over parts of the Reader folder (this might have been the problem), reboot, and reinstall. Hopefully that solves the problem. For future question about Reader, you should consider asking in the Reader forum, this is not it.

Adobe Reader Will Quit

Adobe　Reader8を使ってPDFを開こうとすると、開かれたすぐ後に「Invalid Plugin detected.Adobe Reader will quit」と表示されて文書が見られません。問題が発生したため、プログラムを終了しましたと出ます。
再インストールをしてもだめです。

Adobe Reader keeps quitting

Hi there. My Principal has a Apple Mac running OSX 10.5.3. Whenever she tries to use Reader with a document, it opens for about 3 seconds and quits. The message she gets is "Adobe Reader unexpectedly quit"
The error report is shown below.
I've tried re-installing Adobe reader and I get the same problem. I'd really appreciate any advice anyone has to offer. By the way the error report shown below is not the full thing. I've only included the first 50 lines or so
Thanks and cheers

Hi,
It looks like network user account issue. Are you using Reader X on network user account. It should work on local admin/standard user account. For updates on network user account issue, follow this link - http://forums.adobe.com/message/3696660#3696660

The error "invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit"

I have gotten the RIKLA from Adobe. And I use the example code BasicPlugin(you can download it from Adobe wetsite) as my plug_in, then, I made the api file according to the steps in document in the "Creating an Adobe Reader Plug_in" section of the "Developping Plug_ins and Applications". As last,I copy the api file to plug_ins folder, open Adobe Reader 8. I saw under the Tool memu there is a new menu named Acrobat sdk so that I think the api file is loaded successfully by Acrobat reader. But an error appears, it is "invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit". Can someone tell me why?Thank you.

Nov 16, 2008 10:37 AM in response to: (bruce628) Re: the error "invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit"
I followed your instructions
"You can find these in the "plug-ins" folder. [C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\plug_ins]"
I finally found my culprit, I deleted one file folder at a time, then restored them from my Recycle Bin.
I finally found my culprit, in the folder “Babylon” the file “BabylonRPI" was the main culprit.
I deleted the whole Babylon file folder, and havent had the error "invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit" ever since.
Thank you very much kid, you kept it simple, I am not a Techie either.

Adobe Reader 8 Quits

I recently downloaded Adobe Reader 8 and installed easily. However, every time I try to open a PDF it stays open for 5-8 seconds and then quits. (I only have one identity on my computer, and it's the administrator.) If I act quickly, I can print the file before it quits. Any ideas?
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.9)
G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Here is the message I got that answered it for me. When I did this, it worked, but as I went back today to be able to put the steps down here...I couldn't find the "plug-ins" option. Hope it works for you.
Topic: Reader 8.0 Fix doesn't help on Mac OS X
I downloaded Reader 8.0 to my Mac 10.4.9 and it quits about 8 seconds after opening. I found the fix and copied it to the Plug-ins folder and there is no change. Any other ideas?
Get Info on the Reader application, and under the plug-in section, uncheck the updater.acroplugin entry, then relaunch Reader.

Adobe Reader Plug-in shows error 'Invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit.'

I followed all the steps provided in the development guide. Still it shows this error. Please provide any help!

No Luck
We received the 'RIKLA-DigCert.rc' file along with 'T&C of Adobe' file. I followed the following steps as provided by Adobe's Developer's guide:
After receiving the digital certificate, enable the plug-in for Adobe Reader, by performing the following tasks:
1.Make a copy of dummy.rc and put it in your project directory.
2.Open your plug-in project in Visual Studio. Make sure you are in Resource View.
Adobe Acrobat SDK Creating an Adobe Reader Plug-In
Developing Plug-ins and Applications Creating resource files on the UNIX platform 248
3.Open dummy.rc from your project directory. Copy the API_ENCRYPTED_DIGEST data segment (a dummy encrypted digest) to the resource portion of your plug-in.
4.Open the digital certificate file returned to you by Adobe. Copy the API_DIGITAL_CERTIFICATE data segment (your digital certificate) to the resource portion of your plug-in.
5.Rebuild your plug-in. The plug-in will be created with the correct API_DIGITAL_CERTIFICATE data segment and a dummy API_ENCRYPTED_DIGEST data segment, which will be replaced with real data in the next steps.
But the problem is, when I open ''RIKLA-DigCert.rc' file, I got only '
API_DIGITAL_CERTIFICATE' inside but no'API_ENCRYPTED_DIGEST' as shown in Step-3. How do I get that? Also, we have already created Acrobat Plugin file which has got our project resource file (.rc). How do I use the same plugin for Adobe Reader as well? Is there any step missing? please provide any help as this is stopping our progress even after getting the License. Thanks in advance!

Adobe Reader just "unexpectedly" quit.

Try uninstalling (move the application to trash) and then re-installing from http://get.adobe.com/reader

Invalid Plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit.

Hi,
I have a valid Reader Integration key. The problem is that the above message appears regardless what I am doing.
Can anyone from adobe answers what the message means?
Under the preferences I unchecked "Use only certified plugins".
I have integrated a window in the plugin. While the messagebox is displayed, I can send a message to my window and therefore I see that the plugIn is loaded.
I hope someone can help.
Regards
Manfred

Certified plugins are NOT the same as reader plugins. Certified plugins only come from Adobe and exist for both Reader and Acrobat. Reader plugins work in Reader, while standard plugins do not.
I would check that you are properly adding the key to the plugin - that's usally what the message means.

Adobe Reader Quit Working

I have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader 8.1.whatever... each time it tells me the install was successful but when I try to open it I get an error message - Adobe reader has quit working.
Suggestions?
BTW I use Microsoft Vista premium home edition

I too have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader 8.1.whatever... each time it tells me the install was successful but when I try to open it I get an error message - Adobe reader has quit working. I use XP.
What is frustrating was I was about to read a pdf and was prompted to upgrade. I chose to do the upgrade thinking I would read it in a few minutes after upgrading. Now I can't read a thing and it has been over a day.
Help!!!

Back button in Adobe reader for iPAD pdfs

Two problems:
1 If I use a link in my pdf to an internet web site, how can I get back to Adobe Reader without quitting and restarting.
2. When I use a reference link to an entry at the end of the document I cannot go back to the text position with a single button push.

When a link takes you to another app, you can use the App Switcher on the iPad. Just double-click the Home button, and select Adobe Reader from the horizontal list of recent apps.
A Back button in the Reader app is a good idea, and is a feature request for future versions of Reader. I use it all the time on my laptop version of Acrobat/Reader.

Missing fonts in Adobe Reader for Pocket PC

Hi, I recently installed the Adobe Reader 2.0 on my pocket PC and found that on my documents where bullet points are used it starts to complaint that it misses the font WingDings. I have installed the WinDings font in the Windows\Font directory, but it was not the solution for the problem
Any suggestions as to how this can be resolved?
It seems just a silly small issue, but I'm worlking on site with customers using my PocketPC for documentation and I just get driven nuts as I have to close every time the pop-up box alerting me that the font is missing!!
Any help is appriciated.

>>> Our techs have been using the HTC Blueangel (Same as the I-Mate pictured on your site), and although the image rendered by Adobe Reader was quite sharp, the size of the screen meant you were continually zooming in and out of pages to find the appropriate parts. So weve chosen the HTC X7500 as a replacement because of its 5 screen (amongst other reasons). <<
Ho Kay... have looked at the file and, based on the general layout (drawings with part# references) don't think you can get there from here.
Back to the basic goal, a couple of thoughts based on the assumption that your company is generating these pdf's and needs pda access to them.
Perhaps the part# references can be hyperlinked so the tech could tap the part# on the image and go to a table entry with all of the info on that specific part.
In that case, html would be a better format for navigation since, afaik, there does not seem to be a <back> button in reader.

Adobe Reader help for trial version

Can anyone help me please, granted I am only using the trial version of Adobe Reader but I can never type onto a form recieved in pdf format, also when I scan a document whether it be forms or my pictures it alway's goes to Adobe Reader, I am just a home user, windows 7 64 bit computer and using IE8, if anyone can help I would appreciate it , thanks in advance.

Emma002,
I feel your frustration. I have been down this road before with the Adobe Reader X (10.1.1) and my issue was that I cept getting the following when I tried to open a .pdf file: "Invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit." It is fixable but I had to have a Adobe Support agent help me (and it cost me $29.95). But the same problem is back and I can't seem to find any of the email streams that I had from the support agent.
Adobe : If you are going to offer a product (Adobe Reader X) for free, so should at least stand behind it.
I would gladly paid a reasonable fee for Adobe Reader X (10.1.1) if it would continue to operate as advertised.
And George Johnson and -graffiti stop giving lip service - we are just looking for "The fix".

All my desktop icons are Adobe Reader icons, can't access related files

I was trying to open a file this morning, and when a pop-menu asked what application I wanted to choose (from a list) to open it, I clicked on Adobe Reader - just as a guess. After that, just about all my desktop icons are Adobe icons, and when I click on them, the pop up menus says I can't access the file. These icons also show up on my menu of all my MS Office programs like Outlook, Word, Excel, etc.
Tech support at Adobe recommended I use System Restore, but it also is now an Adobe icon, so I can't open it. If anyone can help reverse this, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks,
David

Hi,
This also happened to me this morning. Now all my icons are PDF symbols and Reader opens when I try to open any other program. I uninstalled Reader it and it fixed itself but when I reinstalled the program the same issue occurred.
I wanted to make PDF reader the default application when openning PDF's vs. Distiller, tinkered and broke my computer.
Any clues on how to bring everything back to normaL?
