Adobe Reader X a step back-wards??

hi,
just wanted to let someone out there know, that since I upgraded to reader x from v.9 (by checking for updates) the program will no longer open .pdf's it just locks up, I know to fix this might be to un-install the program and reinstall, but in all my years of using acrobat reader, I have never had to do this and don't particularly want to now.
Also, I note that the new X version is not as user friendly or as functional with the tools and that the selection of the tools is long winded and a time waster, plz see the light and bring back v.9s tool choice and ease of use, the way to pick tools with the check box system was much better, easier and user friendly, plz bring this feature back, I am considering dropping Adobe reader altogether and opting to use NitroPDF, this is functional as acrobat reader used to be...
I hope your programmers with take a step back and conceder; if it ain't broke, don't fix it...
regards,
rosshi

Thanks. I also did an uninstall, but downloaded 9.4.0; it seems to be
working fine (however, I've just noticed that X is wanting to download
again. I have to "close Adobe Reader Updater" - it can't take no for an
answer!
Have a good day!

Adobe Reader V11 not going back to default settings after print

Hi Guys, First time on this forum. Im having a problem with one of our clients Adobe Reader software, They have the latest version installed
When printing they select the options they want i.e "multiple" (Only happens when you change something in here)
Then even if they close down adobe (have made sure the task isnt running in task manager) start it and go to print another PDF it opens to this page automatically and you are required to set them back manually
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks
Mike

Well try upgrading the firmware of the router & keep on holding tightly the reset button in such a way that power light is blinking on the router & then do a complete network power cycle i.e., unplug the power cables from the modem & from the router & then plug in the power cable to the modem first once all the lights are solid green you could plug in the power cable to the router & check out it will definately work!!
Open the setup page of router using 192.168.1.1 then put in the password as admin...all you need to do is do the wireless settings such as Radio Band Frequency to Standard 20 MHZ frequency,channel to 11.
Also,the advanced wireless settings to Beacon Interval=50,Frag
thres=2306 & Rts thres=2307 & then uncheck a Block Anonymous Internet
Requests & it will definately work!!!

Uninstall of Adobe Reader XI to go back to Adobe 9

I recentely installed Adober Reader XI and discovered that my print functionality is limited. I would like to uninstall Adobe XI which should leave me back with Adobe Reader 9 which is still on my computer. Can anyone walk me through the process and where I might find the uninstall? Thanks in advance for the help!

Sure - I installed Adobe XI on my computer and although I can print when I right click and hit print; I can no longer print from the Menu bar up top. Prior to installing Adobe XI I could print from the Menu bar. When I try printing PDF's from the menu bar the pdf shows a blank screen. When I do it by right clicking I can see the PDF and print. I believe it may have something to do with the Adobe install and so I was simply trying to go back to the version I had before I started experiencing the problem. Feel free to offer any other suggestions you might have.... Thanks for he help!

Adobe reader 11 installation fails. error message: there was an error installing adobe reader. adobe

Adobe reader 11 installation fails. error message: there was an error installing adobe reader. adobe reader installation error. null. tried using adobe cleaning tool. using XP sp3. seems that adobe 11 is not completely uninstalling. this is because when adobe reader 11 is removed from add/remove program. when pc is rebooted, adobe reader 11 entry comes back but it is like false entry as no size given. please help to succesfully install Adobe Reader 11. also tried:
1. uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled 2. installed from different locations 3. removed adobe key from
local machine and tried to install

Seriously, I do not understand what is going on - I have never seen this before!
The MSI installers are usually used in corporate environments to roll out installs on multiple machines. However, you can use it like a normal (EXE) installer; it will just go through fewer steps than the EXE. Not sure if it will improve the situation, but it's worth a try.
Another thing to try is to uninstall these remaining entries using Microsoft Fixit: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall - also no guarantee, but also worth trying.

Will Adobe Acrobat 8.0 Standard Work With Adobe Reader 8.2.4?

Hello,
I have a question, but haven't found an answer to this yet.
Can anyone tell me please: Will Adobe Acrobat 8.0 Standard work with Adobe Reader 8.2.4?
I had Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Standard on my computer & it was working with Adobe Reader 8, but don't remember what the version it was.
I was using Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Standard to scan very old family pictures & documents & I realize that this version of Acrobat is outdated.
To make a long story short, my computer had crashed, so we built another computer & just replaced the hard drive. When I went to Adobe, I had to download the newer version of Reader 9.0 & it didn't work with Acrobat 6.0., so I removed Adobe Reader 9 & I found Adobe Reader 8.0 & have downloaded the patches, so now I have Adobe Reader 8.2.4 back on board.
Thank you.

Adobe doesn't recommend any version of Reader with any version of Acrobat on Windows. It will cause problems. It just is a matter of how and when. The problem has to do with shared resources causing conflicts. If you have Acrobat 8, you can update it to Acrobat 8.2.4. You must apply the updates sequentially.

How to playback sound and video in Adobe Reader in Linux?

Hi one of the killer features of Adobe Acrobat is the ability to embed multimedia content in .PDF documents. (I do hope Adobe extend this functionality).
In Windows Adobe Reader plays these files back just fine (so for example you can make an audio book), but in Linux whenever a .PDF is opened containing multi media content, the application complains that no supported media player is installed.
I have real player installed, as this appears to be the only supported media player - but the acroread executable appears to be unable to find it. (Or at least it seems to not be able to use it). Where exactly is it looking for the executable? (Or is it looking for it at all?
Is there a way to play back embedded media content in PDF documents when using Linux?
I'm using Ubuntu 7.10.

Hello,
If you would like to be a part of the pre-release program for the next release of Adobe Reader on Unix, please contact Anupam Garg (agarg at adobe dot com), the Program Manager for this project.

Poor print performance with Adobe Reader 11.0.06 on XenApp 6.5/Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

Hi community,
here are informations to our environment:
Windows Server 2008 R2 with SP1 - mspatchlevel 05/2014
XenApp 6.5 RP3 + Hotfix_XA650R01W2K8R2X64003 + Hotfix_XA650R03W2K8R2X64013
AcroRead.msi + 11001.msp + 11003.msp + 11004.msp + 11006.msp
Network: 10GB
Problem:
After migration to Adobe Reader 11.0.06 our users are complain about long printingtimes with PDF documents.
What i have done:
Test printing two different documents from local storage an network (dfs,nfs) - notice the printingtime in our environment depends not on used storage!
1. 310 pages document with text (7,023KB)
Adobe Acrobat XI on Samsung ML-451x 501x Series driver Version 3.11.39.00.58.01
Average 52 seconds (done 5 same printjobs with same dokument) to print document in spooler.
Change printer to:
Adobe Acrobat XI on Samsung CLP-770 Series PCL6 Version 3.10.57:76
Average 46 seconds (done 5 same printjobs with same dokument) to print document in spooler.
2. 4 pages document with grafics (4,438KB)
Adobe Acrobat XI on Samsung ML-451x 501x Series driver Version 3.11.39.00.58.01

Change printer to:
Adobe Acrobat XI on Samsung CLP-770 Series PCL6 Version 3.10.57:76
Average 39 seconds (done 5 same printjobs with same dokument) to print document in spooler.
Befor migration we have Server 2003 SP2 and XenApp 4.5FR6 with Adobe Reader 9.5.5
I did the same testing but the time to print was much faster!
1. 15 Seconds to print 310 pages document
2. 28 seconds to print 4 pages document with grafics
Any ideas to make printing faster on WindowsServer 2008R2 with Adobe Reader?
Next step is testing the old version from reader on 2008R2 but on security aspects is this not the way...
Thx
Thomas

Hi Pat,
thx for your answer :-)
i will try the older one 9.5.5 and the newest 11.0.07

Adobe Reader 9 crashing PC when printing - BSOD

When I try to print from Adobe Reader 9 (version 9.1.3), it crashes my PC - the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH!!
My PC: Dell Optiplex 755 with very fast Intel 2 Duo Core chip, 2GB of RAM (of which 1.4GB is usually free), WinXPPro SP3 with all updates, good anti-virus and anti-spyware -- a very good, fast, clean machine.
My Printer: HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 Wireless, new six months ago and generally very good.
So I have UNinstalled Adobe Reader 9 and gone back to Adobe Reader 8. Printed from it once this morning and saw no problem.
Any thoughts?

480 what RAM? Megabytes, Gigabytes? How about free hard drive space? Have you checked your computer for a virus? They can cause all sorts of issues. Assuming you are virus free can you turn off your virus checker and see if that has any effect?

Adobe Reader is trying to open all my files

I was offered the option to Open Files With and somehow I chose adobe reader.... Now all my shortucts and programs have a .lnk extension and I cannot open them.
How can I undo and rever to the default?

Michael, thanks for the link.
First let me mention that I uninstalled adobe reader and everything went back to normal except - of course - I couldn't open a .pdf file which was not good.
I reinstalled adobe reader hoping that the new install will come clean but once done I was back with the problem.
The link you sent me lists several solutions one of which is to perform a registry fix which I wouldn't attempt because - as it mentions - I could end up with more serious issues.
Another solution it mentions is to set the default program to a web browser, email client... etc. This is simple to do but could you please explain to me what this will do? Let's say I set the default program to internet explorer. Will it stay as the default program forever? Will it open a word document, or corel draw for example?
Thanks again,

Adobe Reader X update will not install

I got Adobe Reader X by downloading it online from this site I believe. I have no discs or anything. But several times it has wanted to install an update. And when it does I'll get Error 1311 Source File Not found data1.cab
So why is this happening? Is it because I used a free download off the site and don't have the program on actual disc? There is troubleshooting tips that say uninstall it and all but is this worth doing. I don't want to get rid of it then have to buy it or something. But I am certain I got it off this site so not sure why it won't let me update?

How does one delete the installer cache files? I couldn't find them in 10.7.2 I IDID find Cache files in the Library, and deleted them all. Still broken.
My 10.1.1 installer from Adobe runs and immediatly stops about 40% of the way through, and then sits there. The last time I started the install before lunch, and after lunch the installer was in the exact same spot, but said it would take an hour and 45 min to install! I'm running OS 10.7.2 on a 2009 MBP.
Update:
OK, I put Adobe Reader 9.4.6 back in my Applications folder. I open it up, and do "check for updates". It says I am up to date, and that there are no new updates.
The 10.1.1 installer I downloaded DIRECTLY by going to Adobe.com and following the links for my Mac. I even deleted the installer once and then redownloaded it just to make sure I had a good copy. This is the screen I get when I run the installer. It gets to this point in about 30 seconds, always between the "r"and "i" in scripts, and the time remaining just keeps going up. HELP!

Adobe Reader X update - printer connection lost

After I updated to Adobe Reader X the other day I lost my printer connection online. Offline printing is fine. The printer does not appear in the print window as before. I thought it was the site I was trying to print from (Barclays) - after lengthy discussions with them it appears the problem resulted from the Adobe update. Very annoying. How do I fix please?

Users are unable to print from Adobe Reader X

Hi,
Multiple users in our environment report that they are unable to print from Adobe Reader X. They receive the following error messages (translated from Dutch) Document cannot be printed. There are no pages selected.
We are using Reader version 10.1.3
What we have tried to resolve the issue (without any positive results):
- Repair the installation of Adobe Reader.
- Update Adobe Reader to the latest version for Vista (x86) (10.1.7)
- Created new user profile for the affected users.
The documents can be printed without any errors from Foxit Reader.
At the moment we use the following workaround:
Open the document in Internet Explorer, and then print the document from there.
Does anyone have any idea how we can resolve this?
Best regards,
Duncan

James,
I'm sorry to hear that you were having the same problem under 9.5. I had recently updated to Adobe Reader 10 under Windows 7 and yesterday my "default printer" simply disappeared from the options on my control panel. I re-installed my printer, but today whenever I would open a PDF document and try to print it, the document would simply close with no further ado. After a bit of trial and error, I ended up uninstalling Adobe Reader 10 and going back to Adobe Reader 9.5. Now everything is working just fine.

When pdf file is opened with Adobe reader, it shows extra whitespace after "w"

I am unable to attach the pdf file here. But my pdf file is having a hyperlink "http://www.google.co.in/". When i open it with Adobe reader, its shown as "http://w w w .google.co.in/", if the same pdf file is opened in some other pdf reader, the link is properly shown and i can click over it to browse. This is a bug in Adobe Reader.
Please revert back mentioning where should i attach the pdf file.

I have created the pdf files using txTextControl.ServerTextControl
The additional space after the "w" is a result of charaster spacing, there is no whitespace in pdf file after "w"
If i open the same pdf in some other pdf reader like Sumatra pdf reader, it gets opened without any white space after "w".
However, there is no space after the "w" in the PDF document, its the adobe reader issue.
