Adobe reader + other applications installation error

Hi guys, I think this is my second post on this forum. okay, many applications including adobe reader won't install on my mac (os x10.6.4) "warning: the following disk images couldn't be opened. Reason: not recognized." The adobe reader I was installing supports osx 10.6.3, but mine is as mentioned above...is that the reason? If so, where can i find the adobe reader for my system?
I'd appreciate your help.
cheers.

thanks for the reply. I need adobe reader, the preview thing you mention is terrible in my opinion.
I've tried your suggestion of re downloading it, it the process of installing, it said installation complete while the bar that shows the installation process isn't full and the process is obviously still continuing: you can see bar moving forwards and stuff. I clicked ok and ignore the continuing process...restart computer anyway and try to open my pdf files: no luck. I delete the application, download it again. try to install it again,: "installation is completed and the installation process is still going on despite the window that pop up telling the installation was complete. I ignore the "installation is completed" message this time. The bar moved until it was about 97%, then stopped....waited and waited but nothing seemed to be changing. So i click ok on the "installation is completed" window, restarted the computer, opened pdf files but no luck again.
I'll keep trying

  • Search Server 2010 Express: Open a PDF document from list of search results invokes adobe reader client application with error

    Hi community,
    I set up search server 2010 express on a windows 2008 r2 server.
    The Adobe PDF iFilter 9 64 bit is installed and search is correctly configured to find PDF-files.
    When doing a search and clicking on a link of the result page, the PDF is not opened in the browser, instead the adobe reader XI client application (11.0.04) is invoked and an error raised like "could not open document .. check syntax of url..."
    Right click on a link to open in new tab works fine. And PDF-Files from other arbitrary Internet Sites opens in browser correctly. Moreover when configure Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 as default application on the client it also open in Browser correctly.
    I noticed googling the web there are several challenges when dealing with PDF-files in sharepoint. The following settings are made so far:
    1. In IE: Add-On to open PDF in Browser is enabled for all sites.
    2. Client Integration is enabled
    3. The OpenControl attribute in the DOCICON.xml is left empty OpenControl="" for the pdf entry.
    4. The Browser File Handling is set to "Permissive".
    Please feel free to ask for more information if needed.
    I appreciate any help on this. I don't know what to do further.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the reply.
    Before responding to your points I want to give a little more context:
    We have an intranet based on pure html and a little aspx containing many of those pdf- files. By clicking on the links in the intranet the files open correctly in browser handled by the adobe plugin. Now we set up this search server crawling the file system
    accessed through a share to the root folder of the intranet. In the search server settings a host mapping rule is applied to replace the file://[share] with http://[intranet host+domain+port] to access files over http.
    And now to answer your question. The resulting urls are the same, copying the link from intranet and copying the link from the search result (except some case issues).
    The event viewer not seem to show any errors on this, though I'm not very familiar using it.
    If any further information are from interest and any ideas come to your mind - please let me know.
    Thanks.

    adobe reader issues windows 8 Error 1935.An error occurred during the installation of assembly component {B708EB72-AA82-3EB7-8BB0-D845BA35C93D}. HRESULT: 0x80070422.
    I have tried many things to try to install it and I have been unsucessful. Please help I have windows 8 64bit.

    This did not resolve my issue, it actually made things worse. I did what
    you had told me to do below, and it did not work. Tried to access the
    internet to respond back to you and my computer was not able to reach the
    internet. Tried reaching adobe support and not was able to, even tried
    calling was on the phone for 20 minutes and no one answered. I was not able
    to re install windows. Contacted Asus from another computer and they were
    not able to help me reinstall windows They had asked me to ship my computer
    back to them, due to them not being able to resolve the issue and help me
    reinstall windows. I luckily had a backup on my external hard drive and was
    able to reinstall windows 8. Spent over an hour and half trying to fix
    that. Here I am still not able to install adobe reader. I was very unhappy
    with what I was told to do and it gave me this issue.

    for the elevation prompt
    ·  In the command prompt, type the command below:
    fsutil resource setautoreset true C:\
    The line above assumes that C: is the drive in which Vista is installed. If
    it is installed on another drive like D:, change the drive letter
    appropriately.
    ·  Restart the system.
    ·  Install Acrobat or Adobe Reader again.

  • Adobe reader met with unexpected error

    Hi all,
    I've been bombed with this problem for so long, I'd greatly appreciate it if anyone can give any suggestion. The problem is: My adobe reader 7.0.8 or 8.0 are constantly met with unexpected errors. It just doesn't work, I can't open any files with it. Did anyone have similar problems before? Is there any hidden files I have to delete before installing a newer version or something else?
    thanks!!

    Here are more details:
    I had adobe reader 6.0, the only version that was working on my mac, in my application library. I tried to upgrade it to version 8.0. I downloaded and installed adobe reader 8.0 alright, no problems there. But after installation was complete, the Reader restarted itself and crashed, showing me the message "The adobe reader met with unexpected error." and could not even function, not to mention opening any files. It happened with 7.0.8 before as well. I had no other way but to change it back to 6.0. But it's really bugging me because compared to the latest versions, 6.0 isn't really that good. So please help! thanks

  • I am unable to print PDF's using either Adobe Reader or Safari. In Adobe Reader, I get an error message from my Cannon printer that says, "/usr.libexec/cups/filter/pstocupsraster failed". In Safari, I can only print the first page of a PDF.

    To try to resolve this problem, I have done the following actions.
    1 - I have run Disk Warrior.
    2 - I have repaired permissions.
    3 - I have deleted all plist that are either Cannon or Adobe.
    4 - I have downloaded and installed the lastest versions of Adobe Reader and the Cannon printer drivers.
    I am still unable to print PDF's.
    In Safari, I can print only the first page. In a multipage PDF, Safari only seems to recognize the first page.
    In Adobe Reader, I get an error message from my printer: "/usr/libexec/cups/filter/pstocupsraster failed".
    Any help would be greatly appreicated!

    Quit Safari.
    Open the Library folder in your home folder as follows:
    ☞ If running OS X 10.7 or later, hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar.
    ☞ If running an older version of OS X, select Go ▹ Go to Folder… from the Finder menu bar and copy the line below into the text box that opens:
    ~/Library
    Delete the following items from the Library folder:
    Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Preferences/com.apple.quicktime.plugin.preferences.plist
    Preferences/QuickTime Preferences
    Relaunch Safari and test.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
    Select "/var/log/cups/error_log" from the file list. Post the messages from the time of the last printing attempt.
    Post the log text, please, not a screenshot. If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.

  • Windows vista system, continuously trying to download a DRM file in Adobe Digital Editions application shows "Error check activation". I have authorized the Fire Wall and still the same.

    windows vista system, continuously trying to download a DRM file in Adobe Digital Editions application shows "Error check activation". I have authorized the Fire Wall and still the same.

    Since Re-activation as suggested by the link above is not working for you, Can you please confirm the following:
    The OperatorURL is reachable. ( you can find the operatorURL from the acsm file by opening it in notepad,etc)
    And Book is still available on the book-store for purchase.
    (If any of first two are not available, you might have to talk to distributor for next action item to get the book. Since you will have record of purchasing the book, (in my opinion) they should provide you the new token for downloading the book)
    And please confirm this that you used the same userID for downloading that you used when you first fulfilled/downloaded the book.
    (If it is the case, then you have to use the correct userID)
    I hope it helps.

  • When I tried to update Adobe reader, I got an error message

    When the update for Adobe Reader started automatically, the error it gave me at the end was something like " Failed to write to C:/..." something. Please tell me what to do.

    I am sorry for posting the incorrect link; it should have been http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    To clarify my instructions
    download the cleaner tool from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html and save it to disk (e.g. your Download folder)
    unzip the file
    download the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ and save it to disk
    right-click on the extracted cleaner tool AdbeArCleaner_v2.exe and select Run as Administrator
    right-click on the downloaded installer and select Run as Administrator
    Don't hesitate to ask if there are still things unclear.

  • 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.

    Adobe Reader will not open, error O:104

    That looks like a perfectly good PDF, but since it's trying to open in Microsoft Word, that means your file association for .pdf files is incorrect.  You should change it to point to Adobe Reader instead of Word.
