Adobe Reader software updates delivered via Config Manager

Hello. I've got a fleet of Windows 7 PCs running Reader X. I deploy software updates via Config Manager, and import the Adobe updates via SCUP. All my Windows 7 PCs are currently running version 10.1.1, however none of them are picking up Reader 10.1.3. The update just isn't being flagged as required... any ideas?
By the way, I did look at update path and nothing jumped out at me from there

Hello again, sorry the tardy reply.
SCCM reqs - yes. Pretty standard setup. Flash updates roll out without any issues.
No errors - nothing happens.
Exact steps:
Receive SCUP alert
Import Adobe updates
Publish Updates
Synch SCCM Software Updates
Deploy Adobe updates (as I siad, Flash updates are fine, so I don't see this as a SCUP problem).
That said, I deleted the Adobe updates from Config Manager, and then redeployed them as part of the standard monthly release. This time I received around 2100 installs and 3200 not required (this is about right for Adobe X), whereas before I was getting double figures for installs and mostly Not Required.
Perhaps I had received a bad update, or maybe something went wrong with the SCUP to SCCM import/packaging.
Anyway, all sorted... thank you for the response.

I can sign into Adobe but I cannot sign into Adobe Reader for updates

I can sign into Adobe but my password is rejected when trying to sign into Adobe reader for updates.

Adobe Reader won't ask you to sign in for updates. Most likely, this is just the normal adminstrator password prompt you get when installing or updating software, and you use your computer's own password.

When Firefox last automatically updated, it suggested that Adobe reader needed updating, now, with Adobe Reader 8, I can no longer print from the internet, only to file. Help please.

When Mozilla Firefox last automatically updated, it suggested that Adobe Reader needed updating. After updating to Adobe Reader 8, I can no longer print from the internet, only to a file. I know the printer and its interface must be OK because Word prints normally.

Problem solved, it was my oversight, I had not removed the check from the Print to File box in the print set up.

Software update check via iTunes with error message (1664).

I had a recent experience with my new Ipad '4'. It is running IOS 6.0.1. When I perform a software update check via iTunes, it returned a message saying that an unknown error had occured (1664). When I connect my iPad 2, and did the same check, it returned the nomal "softawre is current version (IOS 6.0.1)" message. However when I checked the software update via Settings in my Ipad '4'. it returned the msaage "your software is up to date". I had completely rebooted (totally switched off) the Ipad '4' and it still gave me the same message via Itune. not sure what is truly going on here.

Are there any costs for an adobe reader software distribution license ?

Are there any costs for an adobe reader software distribution license ?

No (except for the costs of having your legal team check the license). You do need to read the license carefully, you are making specific commitments and there are specific restrictions.

Adobe Reader 11 Update via SCUP

Hi all,
i'm updating Adobe Reaer via SCCM and SCUP and the published catalogs from Adobe.
When importing the updates i do not see the MUI Update for Version 11.0.5, but the not MUI Version is available.
is this update published later what do i wrong?
Thanks a lot

I'm a bit sorry, I've used the non MUI version for deployment, it was the German 11.0.04 Package.
11.0.05 Deployment via SCUP was done without any problems.
I tried "msiexec /update AdbeRdrUpd11006.msp" with Logging Option and this is the output (It's a bit in german I hope its not a problem):

Disabling Adobe Reader X updates in an enterprise

Hi Guys,
Can anyone tell me where the registry key is to disable updates to the New Adobe Reader X? I have this in place for version 9 but I cannot find the key even after using proxmon to see what Adobe is changing in the registry.
Is there any new methods of managing an adobe reader in this new version?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
For disabling ReaderX updates following registry entry can be created:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\10.0\FeatureLockDown]
"bUpdater"=dword:00000000
Hope that it will be useful. Thanks

Adobe Reader for iOS and Android & Rights Management

This week's release of Reader for iOS and Android devices incorporates support for accessing files secured by Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management.
As you are probably familiar, LiveCycle Rights Management protects sensitive documents by encrypting them with industry-standard AES encryption and enabling central management of their access permissions. Protections persist even when documents are accidentally distributed via email, the cloud, or saved on a lost mobile device.
Many of the core capabilities that you are used to on the desktop versions of Acrobat and Reader are now supported when you are on the go on your tablet or mobile phone. We intend to incorporate additional functionality in future releases of these mobile devices and look forward to your feedback.
We've had several questions thus far about how this works. More information about the product, as well as a link to an FAQ can be found at:http://blogs.adobe.com/security/2011/10/just-released-adobe-reader-10- 1-for-ios-and-android.html
Jonathan

Hello Jonathan,
is there an way to trigger iOS download to immediately open using "Adobe Reader"
instead of using the default Previewer (showing an plain empty white window) and then re-open it using "Open with" ?
Is there an MIME-Type to indicate IRM-protected PDF-files?
Thanks,

Compatibility of Adobe Reader International Updates 8.1.5 & 8.1.6 with ME/Hebrew versions of 8.1.3 & 8.1.4

At present, I have Adobe Reader Hebrew version AdbeRdr813_he_IL.exe installed, and I use Internet Explorer 6 SP1 in my Windows 2000 Professional SP4 . The menus and interface in all my Windows 2000 Operating System and installed software are US-English, but the specific menus and interface in my Adobe Reader 8.1.3 are in Hebrew.
Adobe website offers for download ME (Hebrew included inside) Update version AdbeRdrUpd814_all_me_incr.msp, whereas Updates 8.1.5 & 8.1.6 are only available as AdbeRdrUpd815_all_incr.msp and AdbeRdrUpd816_all_incr.msp, without explicit mention of Hebrew or Middle-East (ME) languages compatibility.
Is it compatible and adviseable to download and apply these International Updates 8.1.5 & 8.1.6 directly to the basic Adobe Reader Hebrew 8.1.3 , or first install ME 8.1.4, or directly install International Update 8.1.6 onto Hebrew 8.1.3, thus bypassing ME 8.1.4 & 8.1.5?
Alternatively, should I patiently wait till ME/Hebrew versions of Updates 8.1.5 & 8.1.6 will be offered for download by Adobe?
Note that my main interest is in the ability to search text strings in Hebrew and in English in all PDF documents. The menus and interface might be in US-English or in Hebrew as far as I am concerned.

The ME version of Adobe products are not actually Adobe products. Contact the company that makes and supports these products:

Adobe Reader LE Updates

Are standard OEM equipped device users entitled to product updates?
I'm using Adobe Reader LE 2.5.0.0. but there is no facility in the product to check for updates. Have there been any updates?

afaik, the LE apps are not supported in any way other than, perhaps, by the vendor of your phone. (this forum is for adobe ppc reader which is not related to LE)
If your phone is windows mobile and uses a stylus, you can "upgrade" to the full pocketpc adobe reader by downloading it from adobe and using activesync to install it via your sync pc.

SCUP 2011 - Adobe Reader Deployment + Updates

Hi Everyone!
I am using SCCM 2012 + SCUP 2011 and I want to deploy to deploy Acrobat Reader + Updates.
Here is what I did :
- I created an application deployment (Adobe Reader 11.0.00) and deployed it without any problems.
- From SCUP, I published Adobe Reader 11.0.08 but I don't see this update as "Required"
- From SCUP, If I publish Adobe Reader 11.0.02, I see it as "Required"
From what I understand, you cannot update 11.0.00 directly to the latest update (11.0.08).
So my question is : What would be the best practice to install Adobe Reader and manage the updates with SCUP?
Thank you!

You need to either create a new 11.0.08 package or upgrade to 11.0.02 after that version 11.0.08 will be required.

When Adobe Reader is updated past 10.1.8...Lexmark printers intermittently print gibberish (Wing Din

Security audit dictates we must update all our Windows patches and 'other' software in our incredibly stable and function environment.
Things go really well...only issues is updating Adobe reader past 10.1.8 causes .pdf documents from our intranet to print intermittently one line per page what looks like wing dings, for 50 pages. Only sometimes.
Forcing to open in Application (rather than browser) seems to solve, but this causes our loans software not to populate documents. Support with the loans software say they can't replicate in their environment, are not interested in helping. We must go back to opening in web browser...wing ding print continues.
Microsoft environment LAN: Windows 7 32 bit on desktop, Lexmark T644 printers with 'latest' drivers

You bet...10.1.8 and any version newer seems to cause the issue. Any of the Adobe 11 series. We were at 10.1.3 I believe and it all worked like a charm.
Oh yes...IE 9 in production but have been testing IE10. Loans software does not populate forms when set to open in application in IE9 and IE10 :-(

Adobe Reader XI update Nightmare on Elm Street!

I got notification to update Adobe Reader XI and it took me a little bit to get around to it, but as soon as I did it was like my computer took a walk down Nightmare on Elm Street!
It caused my computer to keep freezing up. Either wouldn't allow me to connect to the internet or kept me logged on at different times. Even, at one point, logged on without my permission!
I don't know what in the world you all did with that junk software but it took me three tries to get it uninstalled from my computer.
So now I'm back on AR10. Imagine no surprise at all when it stopped all of my glitches!!!
I realize there are a lot of operating systems out there and a bunch of system junk that has to work together but whatever was in that update, NO THANK YOU!
I wasted almost an entire day messing with this stupid garbage just trying to get it to uninstall!
Stop messing up our computers!

There are a lot of spammers who send fake update notifications to get you to install malware along with Adobe Reader (or instead). Perhaps, just perhaps, you got one of those.
If the notification was in email it was certainly a scam.

Deploying Adobe Reader X update 10.1.4 ends in error 1310

Hello,
I try to update the reader installations in our company but on many clients it ends up with error 1310 (not enough rights to access C:\Config.msi-Folder).
If I start the msp-file manually it throws about 10 exceptions that it cannot write or read a file in C:\Config.msi\*.tmp. If I click retry, the installer can read or write, so i click retry everytime the error occurs and at the end the update is installed.
How can I deploy the patch silently?
Is there any hint?
I tried all of the solutions shown in here http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-1603-install-cs3-cs4.html
But none of it works.
Please help me.
-Joerg

If you have any antivirus or backup programs running on this system(s), try to disable them temporarily.
C:\Config.msi folder is maintained by the Windows Installer Service.
If WIS cannot access it, either this folder already has corrupted permissions or some other program holds this folder "hostage"
