Adobe Reader Mobile Android Update for DRM pdfs?

I have had a variety of Samsung Galaxy tablets since 2011, and since then I have been waiting...and waiting...AND WAITING for a solution to this ebook pdf issue. Is there (or will there ever be) an update coming soon which will allow tablets and mobile devices to unlock DRM secured ebooks with our assigned log-in credentials? What is the point of an ebook, if the only place you can use it is on a desktop/laptop computer? It sure would be nice if I was able to use a textbook I paid for on a tablet that I also paid for. Please do not give me the "not at this time" speech. Why isn't there a security update to support this feature?

We are aware of this ask and it exists in our product backlog, but unfortunately is not planned for the immediate future. Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

I have an editable pdf made in Acrobat. Viewing it Adobe Reader Mobile (Android) and I can fill it fine. I want to be able to fill the form but it keeps autosaving. I just want to email the form and then it goes back to an unfilled form. How do i do that?

Currently, Adobe Reader for Android does not provide an option to disable auto-save.
In the Reader home screen (where your files are displayed), you can make a copy of the original PDF document, open the copy (instead of opening the original document), make changes to the copy. Once you email the copy, you can delete it.
For more information, please see Help > How To... > Copy, edit, delete, manage.
Although it is not the most convenient way to accomplish the task, that's the only feasible workaround that is available in Adobe Reader for Android right now.

Making Adobe Reader my default application for viewing PDF files.

Hello,
Can someone help me on this issue. I am trying to put adobe reader as the default pdf application instead of preview. I have tried everything...however when i download a pdf document it only provides me the choice to open with preview.
Thanks,

Control/click (or right click if you're using a two button mouse) on whatever file you're wanting to change the association to. In the menu that comes up select "Get Info" and another box will open. Down towards the bottom you should see Open with: and a drop down that has suggested apps. If it's in the list select it (if not navigate to it) and then once that file is associated with whatever app. right below you'll see Change All... and select it and now all those file types will open with whatever app you've selected.

Saving fillable PDF file in Android Adobe Reader Mobile Application

I'll do my best to explain my situation.
1. I open the fill-able PDF file from Google Drive with Android Adobe Reader Mobile Application.
2. I fill out the pdf form using the Android Adobe Reader Mobile Application.
3. Once I'm done filling-in the PDF, I would like to save the file in a specific folder in Google Drive.
I cannot find any saving option within the Android Adobe Reader Mobile Application.
The only way around saving was the "Sharing" feature. It allows the user to share the pdf file using various android applications such as Google Drive, Email, and Evernote to share the file.
This does not allow for overwriting of the original file. Therefore, you will create a new file every time you share the file.
I wanted to know if there was a way to save the file under the same name to overwrite the same file in the Android Mobile version.
Thanks in advance.

You need to duplicate(and/or rename) it first (after finding it in the "Documents" menu tab), then fill it out. This is the workaround for the missing Save/Save as menu. Once you fill out something, and leave the application, the document will be saved automatically.

Is it possible to put adobe reader on my website for pdf file users ?

Is it possible to put adobe reader on my website for pdf file users ?

The point is that, like all licensed software, you need permission to redistribute it in any form. So the question is: is that permission granted? If you can find anywhere that grants it that's fine.
Adobe used to give out such permission back in the days of Reader 1, 2, 3... but I believe it was long ago removed. There is a strong reason to do this today: third party redistributors aren't likely to be hot on updating to new versions etc. There is a more cynical view: Adobe would also lose such benefits as it might get from offering dubious "extras" with the download. Finally, and strongly - if anyone can distribute it, these days who can tell who has the real product and who has a malware impersonator?

Adobe Reader 9.3 Update, DELL Monitor Issue, Comes up as Mobile PC

Hi Folks,
I have currently discovered a bug in the Adobe Reader 9.3 Update released on 1/12/2010 where in a multi-monitor environment one of the monitors or sometimes multiple monitors come up as a Moblie Display.
I have seen this happen when the update is applied on a Windows 7 64bit box with Quad or Dual Monitor set-up. Using Dell p2210t Monitors and Nvidia Quado NVS Cards (all models) not sure if this is only happening on other OS's with the same set-up but that's what we've seen. I have since stopped running the upgrade or roll it back on affected machines.
I wonder if ADOBE knows of the issue and has an update for it.

Licencing for Adobe Reader Mobile

Am I able to use the free version of Adobe Reader Mobile (iPad) for commercial use?

There is no restriction on who can use Adobe Reader for iOS. Anybody can download and use the application, whether they are a consumer or using it for business purposes. In fact, we like people in businesses and non-profits using Reader, because the whole purpose is to enable rich communcation among people and organizations.

I have installed Adobe Reader 11.0.07 for Mac OS 10.9.3. Have asked this question numerous time without results. The problems I am having are: I cannot scroll using the side slider on downloaded PDF files, nor can I fill in fillable files. Also, and this is extremely irritating, I cannot re-initialize the same file or initialize and another PDF file after I have initialized the first file. If you cannot help please let me know if should use an earlier version of Reader or find anther company that has the appropriate software.

Perhaps you missed that you started a discussion at I have OS 10.9.2 and have downloaded latest version of Reader 11. I can no longer fill in form or scroll using the side bar. and you did not respond to the last post there.

Is it possible to achieve Interactive PDFs with Adobe Reader Mobile Software Development Kit?

Hi Guys,
Is it possible to develop mobile solution on iOS to support Interactive PDFs?
Interactive PDFs here means, a PDF might contain textfields, labels. And User should be able to edit those textfields & save the value in PDF.
Thanks.

Hi, it is not possible with PDF format. Interactive elements are now supported through EPUB 3 in Adobe Reader Mobile SDK since version 11.

How do you add preloaded shapes to mark up PDFs on the Adobe Reader Mobile App?

I have Adobe Reader on my tablet. I need to be able to make clean markups on PDFs when I do surveys. I need to be able to draw straight lines, circles, arrows, and polygons neatly. I am not able to do it with the free hand tool cause it is too messy. Is there a way to add preloaded shapes when marking up PDF drawings?

Hi,
Unfortunately, this functionality is not available in Adobe Reader on Android. We have made a note of the same and shall try to incorporate it soon.
Thanks,

I have adobe reader 11.0.09 for windows 7 pdf are opening but minimize and close icon are not showing

please help

Solution found. By enabling a lockdown feature, we prevented Adobe from trying to muck about getting online. Actually NSA provides recommendations on how to lock down Adobe Reader, google "NSA recommendations for configuring Adobe Reader XI in a Windows Environment". We only used:
HKLM\Software\Policies\Adobe\<product>\<version>\FeatureLockDown\cCloud
bDisableADCFileStore REG_DWORD Set to 1

Help with opening Adobe Reader and downloading updates

I can not open Adobe .pdf files any longer (this started yesterday, prior to that I could open adobe files).
When I double click a .pdf file I get this notice on my screen: Windows cannot access the specified device path or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access file.
So I went to the Adobe download site to download a new copy of Adobe. When I start the download I get this on the screen: The instruction at "0x0e3a0068" referenced memory at "0x0e3a0068." The memory could not be written. Then two options are listed: click OK to terminate or cancel to debug. So I click on cancel and I get this on my screen: Internet Explorer has closed this webpage to help protect your computer. A malfunctioning or malicious addon has caused I.E. to close this webpage.
I don't have AVG running, I do have avast but I've disabled it. I ran Registry Mechanic and an I.E. erasure program but nothing helps.
I have gone into I.E. and reduced the security level to its lowest state but no joy.
So, any ideas or suggestions on what's the problem and how to overcome it would be appreciated. Thanks, in advance, for your reply. Jim R.

Hi Mike..tried that as well but no joy. A friend of mine was looking at it all and noticed that it was an I.E. thing as far as not letting me redownload the reader so I went to Mozilla Firefox and I could download a new version but....whenever I attempt to open a .pdf file I get that message, "Windows can not open the specified device, path or file. You man not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."
Damn...this is irritating as I need to get to some of thos files as I need them for a Journal I'm working on as editor-in-chief.
It all worked just fine last Saturday but starting Monday when I was on my flight out to D.C. no joy.
Sigh...Jim R.

Where could I get the Adobe Reader Mobile 9 SDK?

I am develop a windows mobile 6.5 application and want to do some tests on viewing PDF file with the mobile.
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/readermobile/
I followed as above instruction to mail to [email protected] several times but returned with Mail Failure each time.
Then where could I get the Adobe Reader Mobile 9 SDK, please? Thanks.
Besk Regards

You sure?
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/readermobile/
According to the text of that link, the Reader 9 Mobile SDK supersedes the 2.5 SDK. The same page has a link ot a request form, which I guess could get the ball rolling for a proper conversation on the SDK and whether Reader 9 Mobile would work for you.
I just reread your message - obviously you tried there already. I'll have a dig about see if I can rustle up some extra info for you.
HTH.
