Adobe Reader V 9.3.3 Update Available Today

Since the fix for Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat are now available, what version is required
to be installed to use this update? It would be so helpful to have a fix that could be installed over 9.3.0.
Recent updates and fixes have required multiple installs prior to installing the "latest" fix, which is difficult
at best in an enterprise environment where thousands of machines need to be updated. Please tell us that
this lates fix does not have to have 9.3.2 installed first.
Thanks,
Sandy

Did some testing, installing different versions of the Reader.
1) Started with Reader V 9.2.0 and the Reader 9.3.3 update failed.
2) Installed Reader 9.3.0 and the 9.3.3 update still failed.
3) Installed Reader 9.3.1 and the 9.3.3 update failed again.
4) Installed Reader 9.3.2, then Reader 9.3.3 update installation was successful.
I have to give morph2-21 credit for the correct answer.
Again, thanks for the replies.
Sandy.

Adobe Reader 11.0.04 SCUP update causing SCCM 2007 SP2 R3 client to crash

When we started deploying the 11.0.0.4 update for Adobe Reader provided for System Center Updates Publisher (SCUP), we started having failures with our Operating System Deployments. When the 11.0.0.4 update installs during the Install Software Updates (via WSUS) step, it stops the SCCM client, causing the SCCM client to crash and uninstall. When the SCCM client uninstalls, it breaks the OSD process and the image process fails. Our current .wim file has Adobe Reader 11.x patched to the 11.0.0.3 level. We are using SCUP 2011. Everything was working ok until this update came out. We even tried creating an SCCM software distribution package to deploy the update and it still crashes the SCCM client when installed that way. Has anyone seen similar issues in their SCCM environments? Does Adobe have a support number available to get help with these types of issues? Thanks.

Try using the Adobe doc: 1 Introduction — Enterprise Administration Guide
Also, you'll find installing and updating via bootstrapper is easier than AIP over the long haul.

Adobe Reader XI keeps prompting to update to version 11.0.3

Adobe Reader XI keeps prompting to update to version 11.0.3 even though the installed version is already 11.0.3.
How can I stop this unnecessary update prompting occurring?

Thanks for the response Stacy and Bill.
The link to disable updates is giving a 404 error and if I go to the Knowledgebase link and search for “disable automatic updates | acrobat, reader” I just get links to forum threads.
I have attached a snip of my Check for updates preference. I don’t want to go for the no notification option and I don’t trust the auto download options given that I keep getting so many notifications that the same update is available as the version I have: I fear that would simply continuously download the same update over and over.
I’ll try the link you gave me again later to see if I can reach that page.
Thanks again,
Mike

Secunia Software Inspector Reporting Adobe Reader 8.1.2 Security Update 1 Missing

After deploying Adobe Reader 8.1.2 Security Update 1 to all of our managed computers, I ran a vulnerability scan using Secunia Software Inspector (http://secunia.com/software_inspector) and it is reporting that Adobe Reader is insecure (it is version 8.1.0.137) and references Secunia advisory SA30832 (http://secunia.com/SA30832). Specifically it reports that C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe is version 8.1.0.137, which it is. However, running Adobe Reader and selecting Help \ About Adobe Reader 8... from the menu reports that Adobe Reader is version 8.1.2. And selecting Help \ Check for Updates... from the menu reports "There are no updates available at this time." Shavlik NetChk also does not report Adobe Reader 8.1.2 Security Update 1 as missing.
The security bulleting from Adobe (http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb08-15.html) does not contain sufficient information to know if the security update has been correctly applied (there is no manifest of files with versions and dates to check).
It appears to me that the file C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe is not sufficient to determine the version of the installed Adobe Reader, that the update to Adobe Reader 8.1.2 does not update the version of this file, and that Adobe Security Update 1 does not update this file. Therefore, I suspect that Secunia Software Inspector is incorrectly reporting that Adobe Reader is vulnerable. However, without details from Adobe about what file are updated and what versions they should be, I cannot be sure.
How can I be sure that Adobe Reader is not vulnerable (it is fully up-to-date)?

July 9 2008 When I run secunia inspector I am still getting a message that I have an earlier version of Adobe Reader installed though I have 8.1.2 including the security update for 8.1.2 installed. Here is what I get:
(quote)
This installation of Adobe Reader 8.x is insecure and potentially exposes your system to security threats!
The detected version installed on your system is 8.1.0.137, however, the latest secure version released by the vendor, fixing one or more vulnerabilities, is 8.1.2.215.
Update Instructions:
Update to Adobe Reader 8.1.2.215 and apply Security Update 1.

What is Adobe Reader MUI 9.3.4 update - multiple languages

I have a choice of 2 downloads from Adobe
Adobe Reader MUI 9.3.4 update - multiple languages and
Adobe Reader 9.3.4 update - multiple languages
Both are the same size and date.
What is the difference between these?

Adobe Reader MUI is Adobe's Multilingual User Interface version. This product is capable of installing any combination of supported languages. So, for example, you can install French, German, and Spanish simultaneously and then have the capability toswitch among those languages within Adobe Reader. The user interface changes to the appropriate language on the fly.
So if you have MUI Reader 9.3.3(and NOT normal Reader) in your machine and want to update it to 9.3.4 choose Adobe Reader MUI 9.3.4 update - multiple languages otherwise choose Adobe Reader 9.3.4 update - multiple languages (for normal Reader).
To check what you have in your machine, Goto Control Panel>Add or Remove Programs and check the entry of Adobe Reader.
For MUI reader it will be
"Adobe Reader 9.3.3 MUI"
and for normal Reader it will be
"Adobe Reader 9.3.3"

Why don't the Adobe Acrobat 10.1.6 and Adobe Reader 9.5.4 patches update the version on the exe file

Why don't the Adobe Acrobat 10.1.6 and Adobe Reader 9.5.4 patches update the version on the exe file ? My vulnerability reports show these installations are not patched when they really are.

Hi All,
I also facing the same issue with Adobe reader 9.5.4 version update.
Previous Version installed: 9.5.3
AcroRd32.exe - File Version 9.5.3.305
AcroRd32.dll - File version 9.5.3.305
After update installation to 9.5.4, add or remove program shows latest version but exe and dll is not updated. Vulnerability assessment tools based on file version check identifies patch is still missing. Becomes a HEAD ACHE.
Adobe Reader 9 > Help > About Adobe Reader 9 - First shows version 9.5.4, if your click on it instead of showing AGM version next it shows version 9.5.3.305.
I tested for all previous versions of 9x, works fine in each update. Seems like patch is missing codes for updating file versions.
Waiting for an acknowledgement.

Adobe Reader XI 11.0.09 Update broke image signatures

I allowed my computer to download and install the latest Adobe Reader XI update, to version 11.0.09. Since doing that, I can no longer sign PDFs. Adobe Reader "forgot" my signature, and prompts me to create a new one, but gives me an error when I try to do so.
The steps I take: I click on Fill & Sign at the upper right. From the Fill & Sign Tools pane, I choose Place Signature. Since Adobe Reader has forgotten my signature, I am prompted by a dialog box that starts with How would you like to create your signature?. I tick the Use an image radio button, then click the Browse... button that appears below it. I choose my signature, which happens to be a BMP file, and click the Open button. Adobe Reader then gives me an error message: This file cannot be used to create a signature. Please select a different file and try again.
I tried converting my BMP file to a TIFF file, but that didn't help.
I need to be able to sign PDF documents again. Is this a bug waiting for a fix, or is there a work-around?
I badly need this feature back again.

Hi, thanks for your prompt responses.
I am a bit perplexed. I take it that, although I have the latest Adobe Reader XI (11.0.10) installed with the latest update 32 and I can open it and use it to read PDF's it is not the correct version for Vista ? As I said when I used the Firefox plug in check, which triggered this whole issue for me, and clicked the red button to update it took me to an Adobe update install page which only offered the 10.1.4 English UK for Windows download (Which you say is actually the correct version for Vista) but this did not complete because it said I have a more functional version already installed which I presume is the 11.0.10 version ?
Do I now need to download the Adobe Reader 'Full Download': Adobe Reader MUI 10.1 - Multiple Languages version 146.67 MB 6/8/2011 or just the Adobe Reader 10.1.4 update, although I may find that I just get the same result as I do using the Firefox update button, it does not complete and I am informed I have a more 'functional version' installed ? Again there are two options for these Updates on the Adobe download page 'All languages' and 'Multi lingual (MUI) installer' and I am not sure what the difference is or , more important, which to use and the Help>About Adobe Reader offers no clue.
Further advice appreciated as I am a bit flummoxed ! Thanks .

Adobe Reader corrupted. Won't update

I thought there was something wrong when I was downloading updates for the Adobe Reader 10 series when I already had Adobe 11 series. But the updates came right from Adobe, or at least they made themselves look like it. And the updates kep coming for the Adobe Reader 11.0.03 but will not download because they say there is a problem. So I am going to fix it once and for all by getting rid of Adobe Reader and reloading it from the Adobe page.
being the same place I was getting the bogus updates.
Can anyone tell me how to uninstall Adobe Reader altogether?

Okay. Use Terminal to forcibly remove it. Type the following command, with a space included, but DO NOT press enter yet.
sudo rm -rf
Drag the application into the terminal window to complete the path. Again, do not press enter before you drag the Application into Terminal.
It will look something like:
sudo rm -rf /Applications/Adobe\ Reader.App

The "Adobe Reader 11.0.08 security update - All languages" is not working with "Adobe Reader 11.0 - Multilingual (MUI) installer" using msiexec when creating an msi package. is there going to be a release of Adobe Reader 11.0.08 update - Multilingual (MUI

Is it possible to create an msi package if the product you are upgrading is Multilingual (MUI) and the update(msp) you are applying is not Multilingual (MUI) but "All languages"?

Please download the latest Adobe Reader patch from the below mentioned location, it will work with MUI installer.

Plug-in for Adobe Reader to display embedded WMV not available

My problem is that I have a PDF with an embedded WMV. When I attempt to open it, I get the following message:
    The PDF file contains media that requires an additional player. Please click 'Get Media Player' to
    download the correct media player. To play the media, you will need to close and restart the application
    once the player installation is complete.
When I go to download the correct media player, the Adobe web site, (http://www.adobe.com/special/acrobat/nomediaplayer.html), informs me that the third-party media player is not available for my system. It does, however, suggest visiting the Apple web site for QuickTime.
As a matter of course, I decided to install Flip4Mac which is an add-on to QuickTime that allows it to play Windows Media files. While this add-on does function according to specification, I still get the same error when I attempt to open the same PDF file.
Note that I am running Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard).

Putting it bluntly, you shouldn't be embedding WMVs in PDF files anymore - it's called "legacy media" and it's been discontinued for security reasons. You can't author it in Acrobat X, and playback is disabled in all current versions of Acrobat and Adobe Reader unless the user changes their security options. Authors should be using Rich Media annotations, which embed FLV or H.264 video and play cross-platform via an internal copy of Flash Player.
The weblink fired by Reader when it encounters legacy media for which the OS has no registered handler understands that you're on a Mac - and as there are no primary players for WMV files on OS X, that's what it tells you. Adobe does not link to third-party add-ons for other software, and even with those installed it will continue to complain unless the add-on has changed the file type associations, so that WMV files automatically open in Quicktime.

Highlight in Adobe Reader X not working after update to 10.1.1

Hello
We have an application aimed at assisting people with reading difficulties. For that purpose we have written an Adobe Reader plugin which makes our application able to read text from PDF documents. While it reads it also highlights the words it is reading so that the user can keep up with it. However, after the 10.1.1 update of the Reader the highlighting no longer works.
The plugin was originally developed using Acrobat SDK 8.1, but the problem remained even after I upgraded to SDK 10. The highlighting is done using the AV-layer with the AVPageViewHighlightText() method.
We need to know if there is something in this recent update which breaks the highlight functionality, and if so, is it intentional?
PS: We are running with Protected Mode disabled since reading doesn’t work at all with it.

Ok, I found the problem.
We are using the void AVPageViewDrawNow(AVPageView pageView) method to make sure that some changes are applied in certain cases. The behavior of this method seems to be different in Adobe Reader 10.1.1. Removing the call brought our highlighting back to life.

Cannot print to local file path since Adobe Reader XI (11.0.6) update

I am attempting to print any PDF file to a windows printer that uses a port pointing to a local path (e.g. c:\test\testprint). This functioned successfully in the previous versions of Adobe Reader and since the update to 11.0.6 Adobe Reader will not print at all to this printer. I have attempted using different printer drivers and print processors which do not appear to impact the issue. If I point the printer to a port that points to a network path it works.
Has anyone else seen this?
Thank you.

Please try after whitelisting the path of local port (c:\test\testprint) using custom policies.

Adobe Reader X Crashes after Java Update to Version 7 Update 51

I just installed the new Java update Version 7 Update 51 and now Adobe Reader X crashes in Windows 8.1 within 3 seconds, any advise would be helpful.
Bankruptcy Attorney

Thanks. I've posted there as well. Anyone know if there's a workaround to keep reader from crashing with this form, or is my only option to roll back the servers until the creator of the form updates it?
(I have notified their webmaster of the issue, but who knows how long it will take the state to update the form.)

Adobe Reader XI is missing "check Updates" link on Help menu

On several installations of Adobe Reader, we are missing the check updates link on the Help menu. any help or suggestions on how to fix that?

On Windows this item might be missing for Standard User on XP OS
Also, search Registry for the value named bUpdater in the Adobe Policy hive.
If this value is set to 0, try to delete the value, restart Reader and check the menu.

Adobe reader issue even after latest update

I have installed the recent adobe reader on my windows 7 (g 72- C55DX notebook PC) multiple times but it will not open files. A message comes up: "please update your adobe reader". based on the online support i have fixed my settings and enabled javascript as well but still no improvement I am not able to open files. Please let me know what I should do to resolve this matter.Thank You!

Chrome and Firefox use their own PDF viewer, not the Adobe Reader plugin.
That leaves Internet Explorer; what is the exact message you get in IE - can you post a screenshot?
