Adobe Reader server licensing - what a joke!

I go to download Adobe Reader 9 to install on our Citrix servers. As I'm in a Citrix session, the Windows 2003 Server version is selected automatically. I take a look at the licence, and it says: "This agreement does not permit you to install or use the software on a computer file server", and refers me to http://www.adobe.com/go/acrobat_distribute. Now as far as I am concerned, our Citrix servers are terminal servers, not file servers, but I follow the link anyway. This directs me to the Adobe Reader Distribution Agreement, which says: "Distributor may install one copy of the Software on a computer file server within Distributors Intranet for the sole and exclusive purpose of allowing use of the Software from an unlimited number of client computers on Distributors Intranet via ... (ii) Windows Terminal Services, (iii) Citrix ...". Now this talks about a file server, but describes a terminal server - it seems that Adobe doesn't know the difference. In any case, we have two Citrix servers, and I want to install Reader on both. What am I supposed to do - complete an agreement for each server? What if we had 50 servers? Come on Adobe - get your act together.

I have had adobe 9 before but it will not open now? I am not very computer savy, and was wondering what happened to adobe 9 on my computer and can it be fixed?? thank you Fred Thorpe

I have adobe reader 8. What do I need in order to edit PDF docs so I dont have to try to convert to Word?

With just the free Reader? No way that I know of. You would need Acrobat.

"Adobe reader server error 16297.333.2486.403" while installing

I am unable to download Adobe Reader. Nothing ever downloads from the download manager and I get this error:
Adobe Reader
server error 16297.333.2486.403
Any thoughts?

Don't use the download manager. Give us the version you want and the platform, and someone will give you a direct download link.
Or download your installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

Adobe Reader's License Question

Hi, guys
I was doing some development works based on Adobe Reader (Not Acrobat, just reader). It is not a plug-in, just let users to print the pdf file through adobe reader. Invoke "AcroRd32.exe \t printerName myfile.pdf"
I want to sell my software, what kind of licenses should I got? Does it cost much?
Thanks
Michael

From the aforementioned document:
If you don't see it, or if it fades away, just tap anywhere on the document and it will reappear.
Try tapping on the document, a bar will show up.

Adobe Reader Acrobat DC: what where they thinking??

I made an Adobe account especially for this posting. I am not someone who complains a lot or writes all over the web about software. But for this new DC thing I make a big exception.
I did build a new PC and after that I also went over to Adobe site to download Adobe Reader. Something was there by default called Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.
Mmm, confusing: I don't have or want Acrobat, that's a complete other line of Adobe products. So had to search but no, turns out that for some reason the reader now also is part of the Acrobat line. Plus only DC is offered, nothing else.
Well okay, download and install.
First impression: looks weird, a way to big tools sidebar too. Ah well, I can disable that. Nope, the sidebar is always there.
Interface and layout: horrible. But okay, I can learn to live with that.
Okay, next step: disable the automatic update. Nope, can not be done, the auto update is always On.
Well okay, lets see if I can get rid of all the "become member" and "Cloud" notifications. Nope, Adobe somehow decided to nag people to death in the Reader so they get a paid account and go into the cloud.
I really don't know what Adobe was thinking when the made this DC thing but it's just horrible. I know the side Toolbar will have the option to be hidden constantly within a month or 3, I know I can disable the Auto update withing Windows Services, I know I can use Windows Registry tweaks to disable things, I know there is a DC Configurator Wizzard to set things.
But it's ridicules that all that is needed to get a normal working, simple PDF Reader!!
And that is my experience for personal use: for my work DC has even more become a completely useless tool with all the things that have to be configured before the users can use it.
Adobe, do mention on your download page that DC is no simple PDF Reader anymore but just another way to generate money by trying to get people to get a Adobe account so they can get more features? Do mention that Adobe Reader as we know it is no more, that it has been replaced by this DC thing?
Sorry Adobe, I uninstalled this DC thing and I am looking for a good and simple alternative for at work. With sadness I say goodbye to Adobe Reader which I used for so many years. Thank you Adobe by rewarding us all with this ... this ... DC Thing

Hi ,
It seems like you are not happy with the new UI for Acrobat DC.
First of all I would like to tell you that Adobe Reader DC and Adobe Acrobat DC are two different software .
DC is the common thing linked to both the software.The DC ,i.e Document Cloud states the ease of access of the PDF files,that you can view your PDF' from anywhere and from different gadgets such as your phone, laptop and your desktop by just logging to your account .
If you did not find the new interface interesting ,you could fill in the following wish form and report the same to our engineers and they could work on it and see what best could be done for the users .

Open PDF file with Adobe Reader - Asks me what Firefox should do - every time

Hi,
Everytime I want to open a PDF file, Firefox asks me 'What should Firefox do with this file'.
I have Open WIth Adobe Reader (default) selected and I have the 'Do this automatically...' box checked.
So it seems to me that Firefox should not ask me every time.

Hi - I don't want it to always ask; I want it to never ask.
Having said that, I changed my option setting to 'always ask' and the next time I tried to open a PDF document, the dialog box opened asking me what to do. The 'Do this automatically...' box was unchecked as expected.
I checked the 'Do this automatically...' box and now Firefox no longer asks.
Weird way to solve the problem, but it appears to work fine now.
Thanks

Installed Adobe Reader - no license agreement

Installed Adobe Reader and when I try to use s]it says I need to sign license agreement but the agreement never comes up during installation.

If you are in Windows (which we don't know), you can try using Windows Explorer to navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement

Adobe Reader not opening. what to do?

My Adobe Reader stopped working. I removed old versions of Adobe, installed the new version and nothing. Cannot open file. I then ran the repair instructions posted on your forum. Nothing. I tried the instruction to help window recognize the file. Nothing. What is wrong with Adobe Reader? I cannot even launch the newly installed application. I am running Windows 7 OS. Please HELP!

You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader:
http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
Then, you can download the offline Reader installer from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

Recently firefox will open but then freeze immediatly. This has occurred after I updated adobe reader. I'm not sure if that affected firefox, but the time period fits. Restarting my computer has no effect on firefox.

The Adobe DLM is not required for Adobe products to work. You can uninstall it by opening the Windows Control Panel and selecting Add or Remove Programs. In the list of programs select Adobe DLM (may be listed as Adobe Download Manager) and click on remove.

Adobe Content server license is not being accepted by Adobe servers.

Hello,
We get err E_LIC_LICENSE_SIGN_ERROR on all our books. What can be wrong? We have checked our certificate, it was updated few weeks back and is valid.
Thanks

Hi Steve, can you provide some additional information about your environment? What version of Exchange Server are you using? Also, is the client application something that you are developing, Outlook,
or something else?
If you could also collect an unencrypted trace file containing the request/response and send that to me at dochelp(at)microsoft(dot)com it would be very helpful. If you are working with an ActiveSync
client, a Fiddler trace would be preferred.
Thank you.

Adobe Reader 9.0 has delay when downloading PDF file through proxy server

There is an issue with the Adobe Reader (and Acrobat) 9.0 PDF Link Helper ActiveX control for Internet Explorer (6 or 7) on Windows computers with respect to proxy servers. Due to this issue, there is a 2 minute delay for any Internet Explorer web browser on the Deere network before any PDF file will open from the Internet within the IE web browser if In-Place activation (Display PDF in Browser) is enabled in Adobe Reader 9. This problem does not affect Adobe Reader 8.
What we are seeing is that when someone on the Deere network clicks on a links to a PDF file in the Internet, the PDF file downloads immediately. But then, after the PDF file is downloaded, the Adobe Reader 9 PDF Link Helper ActiveX control tries to talk directly to the Internet web site. The Adobe Reader 9 PDF Link Helper ActiveX control does not know how to negotiate our proxy server. So after a minute or two, the Adobe Reader 9 PDF Link Helper ActiveX control times out (gives up) and allows the IE browser to display the downloaded PDF file in the IE browser.
We work around this issue by disabling In Place Activation for PDF files in IE (uncheck Display PDF in Browser). But we would like a fix for the PDF Link Helper ActiveX control.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\Originals]
"bBrowserIntegration"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\9.0\Originals]
"bBrowserIntegration"=dword:00000000
Here's what our proxy people see when they do a trace of a PDF file download through their proxy server with IE 7 and Adobe Reader 9 with Display PDF in Browser checked.
The browser tells the proxy to download the pdf, it does and sends it to the browser. Before the browser opens it something in Acrobat ( or I.E. ? ) tries to make a connection back to the content server that hosted the pdf. Unfortunately this agent does not ask the proxy to make the request for it, but rather asks local DNS to resolve the Internet server name. This request dies because our internal private network does not know anything about the Internet. Only the DNS used by the proxy can resolve Interent names. After two unsuccessful DNS queries into the private network, the agent tries to resolve the same Internet name with NBNS ( netbios name service) queries again into the private network, with the same results. These requests persists for more than two minutes ( over 200 unresolved queries ). Then for whatever reason the agent gives up and the already downloaded pdf file loads into the browser.
I have a TCP capture file if you want it.

Hi,
I have the same problem with some specific PDF files. For more than 90% it hangs when opening the file, but sometimes it works (with the same file).
The workflows where it sometimes worked:
a) Loading the PDF, the reader is started the first time and displays license dialog.
b) The reader was already runing and file is loaded with Drag&Drop or File/Open in the Reader
But most times it does not load.
I could not find out which file is missing or trying to be opened. So I tried with the CP949.TXT.
I found no CP949.TXT in Reader 8 installation, so I took it from the link, pasted into notepad and stored in the respective directory
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Resource\TypeSupport\Unicode\Mappings\win\
Now it seems to work fine, opening PDFs with double click from exporer.
But why did Adobe Reader 8 not have the TypeSupport directory at all?
Even when having found a fix (hack?), I think I did not understand the cause of this problem.

My MacBook Pro will not open documents via Adobe Reader. Says I need to aspen Reader in Browzer and accept terms and contitions first. Went through this 3 times and got through to "Finish", closed browser and then retried. No luck. What's going on?? Have no problem with same documents on iPhone and iPad

After you finished installing did you launch Adobe Reader from your /Applications folder and accept EULA(End User License Agreement)?
What is your Adobe Reader version?
What browser are you using and browser version?
Thank You.
