Adobe Reader won't DL - need a pdf reader [Lumia 7...

So I have a slight problem with Lumia 710. After I figured out how to get a .pdf file onto my device (did so via Skydrive) - it suggested that I DL a pdf reader and directed me to Adobe Reader. 
However, once I get to that page, I get: 
"App not available
This might be because your phone software needs to be updated,
the app is exclusive to a different mobile provider,
or the app is not available in your region."
Right off the bat we can rule out "the app is exclusive to a different mobile provider". I have a friend with the same provider, with the same phone, who downloaded it with no problem. 
"The app is not available in your region" - my friend, the one with Adobe reader, has had his on either Icelandic or U.S., in the region settings. I tried both, no luck.
"The phone software needs to be updated" - I don't know about this, I think I recall it saying "no updates available" earlier today on Zune, but I might be mistaken. 
Any advice?

Was thinking of removing my windows live account and re-adding it, to see if that is what needed to be done for the phone to look at my updated location (the US). However, I found out that in order to change my primary windows live account (even if it's to the same account) I would need to perform a hard reset, which is something I'm a little unhappy about - seeing as I don't even have a guarantee for that working.
I'm going to take a bit of a break from this, but do you think this would be worth a try?

  • Uninstall/reinstall adobe now won't let me see pdf in browser even after following firefox support guide

    Because Adobe updater kept failing after a week, I uninstalled and reinstalled latest version (permission msi errors caused this). Now, even tho' profile shows acrobat and all adobe products enabled for FF, I can no longer view pdf docs in browser. Completed each step in the FF help guide for deleting files in profile, reinstalling adobe, etc., but it still doesn't work. Running Vista x64

    The problem was NVIDIA ForceWare Network Access Manager. That came loaded on the Sun Server we are using for ACS. I found references to it in the even logs and not being a Windows Server person I had to grab someone who was and to be honest even they didn't get it. I started uninstalling any virus and security S/W one at the request of the TAC and removing NVIDIA Forceware did it.

  • Adober Reader suddenly won't open any PDF files (Mac)

    I had an old version, I downloaded the latest one, upgraded to the newest, even tried taking that one out and downloading an older version. It doesn't matter which version I seem to have, it won't open any pdf files from the web.
    I use a Mac, and Safari. It used to always load PDF files fine, one random place said I had to update it so I did and since then, lately it'd crash and close all Safari windows when loading a PDF or trying to copy something from a PDF. The smart Mac message I have says it could be related to an Adobe Plug in. However, now it won't even load PDF files at all, it always goes to a white page. Nothing happens.
    What do I do?? I can't even save the PDF's as individual files and view then in Preview as an alternative option. It's a link online and normally would work. What happened??
    HELP!
    I have a Mac OS X Version 10.5.8
    I've always used Safari, it's Version 5.0.5 (5533.21.1 if that means anything).
    Acrobat Reader, currently an old version 9.4.0 download. BUT, I had also the 10.0.1 version which also doesn't work. When I had that 10.0.1 version and checked for updates, there was an update (.3 I think?) and I did that and that also doesn't work!
    Why did it suddenly stop working?
    What can I do to fix it ASAP?
    Only with 9.4.0 version I can go to Help and "Repair Adobe Reader Installation" - I click that and the only box I can select is "Adobe PDFViewer Safari Plugin - View, fill-in and collaborate on Adobe PDFs within Safari"  - I click continue and it tells me there's "No missing components detected. Repairs are not needed." The only option is to click "OK".
    With any newer version of Adobe Reader, under Help there is no option to "Repair Adobe Reader Installation". So... I can't even try that with a new version.
    I am at a loss for solutions. Hope someone here can help! Thanks!

    There are several things you can do. My first step would be to repair permissions. If that doesn't work log on as a different user. If all works properly then you have a corrupt preference file (most likely) or a corrupt user font installed in your user Library (less likely). If that doesn't work download Applejack. Have it repair the disk, remove all system caches and user caches. Then have it check all system and user preference files. Remove any preference files that are corrupt. Reboot and see if your system is working properly.

  • Pdf attachments won't open in Adobe Reader 9

    After installing Adobe Reader 9, I can no longer open pdf files that come as email attachments. Even attachments I opened two weeks ago no longer open. Error message is from Microsoft Outlook and reads "Application not found." I've found Adobe Reader in my "All Programs" list. After opening the email, I right-click the attachment and save it as a file. Then, I can open Adobe Reader and browse to that file and open it successfully. But NOT by double-clicking the attachment in the email. Any ideas? Thanks!
    P.S. I posted this message in the "Adobe Reader 9 Won't Download" then realized it was off topic, so I started another topic. Mea culpa!

    I encountered the same problem and tried doing what Suzanne did by right clicking the file and saving it to the computer first and then opening it.
    And then after double clicking the saved file windows prompted whether I want to open it with the newly installed Adobe reader 9.0 or with Microsoft Word. I chose the Adobe Reader 9.0 and clicked on the check box asking whether we always want to open this type of file using this program.
    I managed to open the file and best of all is after that I was able to directly double click on the pdf email attachments to open it.
    Seems like that we need to let windows associate the file type with the program first.

  • Why can't I open PDFs anymore and Adobe Reader won't install.

    Why can't I open PDFs anymore and Adobe Reader won't install? This happens only in Safari. I have tried changing my security preferences but it doesn't help.

    missyzz,
    which version of OS X is installed on your Mac, and which version of Adobe Reader do you have installed? Did you ensure that all of your browsers were not running when you’d installed Adobe Reader?
    To use Preview to open PDFs, download the PDFs to your Mac, and then use Preview to open the PDFs locally. Since you can open PDFs in Firefox, it sounds like you don’t need the Preview workaround.

  • Adobe Reader,11.0.04, won't open PDF

    I am using an iMac with v10.8.5. Adobe Reader v. 11.0.04 won't open any PDF's. I need help.
    Wayne

    Do you have one of those PDFs or point me to one. I had a few oddball PDFs that I couldn't open with Adobe Reader, but the built in Preview worked as well as vice versa.
    I'd like to know a couple of things:
    can you open the PDFs in Preview?
    did it work with a previous version of Adobe Reader?

  • Adobe Reader XI won't open more than one PDF

    The latest Adobe Reader (11.0.02) won't open more than one PDF at a time. Seems to require continual re-install for each open. And each time I install, it says the application is already present on my machine, yet I cannot find it anywhere. Any suggestions out there?
    Elaine

    Thanks for getting back to me, Pat. I need to go back to wherever I was and
    remove the question. After I posted my question, I decided to delete all of
    the Adobe applications on my computer and start overŠit worked.
    I appreciate your concern,

  • Already have Adobe Reader 10.3.1; however 2 separate PDF to Word Converters claim I still need the "

    I already have Adobe Reader 10.3.1; however 2 separate PDF to Word Converters claim I still need the "latest" version in order to view the converted file.  I have tried "repairing" Adobe and installing from the website; however it always "fails to initialize" at 50% and won't download.  I also opened a Mozilla account to circumvent; however that has not been successful either.

    You may want to try removing all traces of any versions of Reader using the Acrobat and Reader Cleanup Tool:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    To install Reader, download its full installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • Why won't Adobe reader no longer let me view previously download (from Safari) pdf's? I am running OSX 10.8.5 and have uninstalled and reinstalled latest version of Reader?

    Why won't Adobe reader no longer let me view previously download (from Safari) pdf's? I am running OSX 10.8.5 and have uninstalled and reinstalled latest version of Reader. I get this error message "Adobe Reader could not open 'OD Test Bed Proposals_0.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."  I have tried changing the 'open with' options too. Thanks

    Try this:
    Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    Trash the AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin files
    Empty the trash
    Relaunch Safari. You can now download undamaged PDFs.

    I used to use the free version of Adobe Reader to convert my publisher files to pdf files. When I was making a booklet for our hockey team, it said I had to buy it. Now I bought it and it won't convert the files. I am ready to throw this computer out the window!! Can you tell me what is the problem? No it does not exceed 100 M. either.

    Adobe Reader never converted Publisher files to PDF, for free, never. I suspect you use to have the (paid for) Adobe Acrobat. Sometimes people have Acrobat (more than $300 worth) and install Adobe Reader over the top, losing that valuable software.
    That said, if you subscribed to PDF Pack it should do this conversion. What exactly happens now.
