Adobe Reader X and windows 7 install problems

I keep getting an error message saying I have insufficient privileges to access a directory to install. How do I get around this?

You need to either install using a userid with administrator privileges, or right-click on the installer and select 'Run as Administrator'.

Adobe Reader X and Windows 7 Enterprise Memory Leak

Hi I am using Adobe Reader X with Windows 7 enterprise when reading a 8000 page document when I do a search I notice that the memory on my machine starts to creep up typically 1Mb per search this will continue to rise to over 300Mb as the document is used until it reaches a point that it freezes the machine, The only way to recover is Ctrl-Alt-Delete and cancel the task. Has this been observed by other users?

Good day,
Could you provide some additional details about both the file and your system's configuration?
What version of Adobe Reader X do you have installed? (Help > About Adobe Reader)
If you haven't updated to 10.0.3, please do so and see if the issue persists.
How was the PDF file you're searching created? (File > Document Properties > What does the PDF Producer line say?)
Are you experiencing this with multiple files?
Have you installed SP1 for Windows 7?

Adobe Reader 6 and windows 8.1

i recently bought a new laptop and it has windows 8.1. i have always preferred to use Adobe Reader 6 because i can delete pages, insert pages, etc. problem is it won't work with 8.1. how do i get the new adobe reader to do what i used to be able to do?

The fact is no version of Adobe Reader (or prior to the Acrobat 6.x product family the "Acrobat Reader") can delete, insert, etc to PDF pages. The release of Adobe Reader X made the Sticky Note and Highlight annotation tools available.
The release of Adobe Reader XI made the full set of Comment and Drawing Mark Up annotation tools available.
If you've deleted, inserted, etc. for PDF pages in the past you would have been using a release of Acrobat, not Reader.
If you need to "work" PDFs then you need Acrobat. The currently marketed release is "XI".
Be well...

Adobe Reader 2002 and Windows Mobile 6

Hello,
has anyone experience with Adobe Reader and Windows Mobile 6?
I'm using an E-Ten M700 and the Reader (I tried ARM-Version and 2.0) installed itself perfectly but when started the loading icon appears shortly and nothing happens.
Is the Reader no good with WM 6?
Thanks,
Martin

>>> Will the pocketpc for win 2003 work on a win mobile 6 device and does it reflow PDF documents. <<
In general, all ppc apps will run on current winmobile _ppc_ devices (must have touch screen) so, the answer is yes unless something such as a locked device disallows installing apps.
As for reflow, that is an issue of the pdf files... they must be "tagged" in order to allow reflow on the ppc.
The sync process attempts to tag synced pdf files, but, this will only happen on the sync pc which installed acrobat reader.
Full Acrobat also has the ability to add tags (advanced/accessibility/ make accessible) but some pdfs may not allow tags to be added due to protection levels or those which have any tags anywhere in the document or those where the text is a scanned image.

Primairy IDE and Windows Install Problems!

Hail all, I have had this issue the last 48 hours for the most part, but it started last monday night..
I orderd all my stuff from newegg.. I got:
Intel 775 Socket 2.8ghz Prescott
ECS Mobo (psh model)
2x 512mb DDR 3200
Western Digital 80gb Hard Drive at 7.2k RPM (my only OEM item)
Chaintech GeForce 6600 GT video card
Jaht ( I think? :p ) Wireless PCI Adapter (can't have wires running in my room)
Aspire-X Dreamer II Case
Rosewell DVD/CD-RW combo (very cheap).
Anyways, I hooked it all in and it wouldn't give a signal to my monitor. I found out a small mount was hitting the mobo, and it was probably damaged. I got a new motherboard on Friday (which was all of my paycheck being as young as I am), the grand MSI 915P Combo. Oh, it was so shiny and awesome!
I got a signal to the monitor, and it started up. I put in a floppy for the latest BIOs and it seemed to go right. I put in my WinXP disk, and rebooted. Do do do, it starts to do that 'pre-'load Windows thing. When the little message at the bottom says "Loading Windows Setup". I am thinking "so leet ".
When, HELLO, my first Blue Screen of Death (before I even installed Windows! I love that). It says check for Virusis (I havn't been on the internet..) and uninstall any new HDs and such. Well, that confuses me. So.. I put in my friend's very very old HD (which has tons of buggies in it BTW) and that loads fine. So I put mine back in, skim through my BIOs and I notice that the HD is the Third Master IDE, and that my CD-ROM slot is considered RAID.
What the hell?
I am going to install the older set of BIOs for the 915P Combo from July instead of the September ones and hopefully that'll fix it.
Has anyone else had any errors like this? Thanks - Erik

you skiped the part about him buying the msi board.

Adobe Reader X and Windows 7 64-bit

Any idea when Adobe Reader X will be able to show thumbnails in Windows 7 64-bit

No one who knows can speak, those that do not know cannot say anything of value. Adobe doesn't usually pre-announce new features. Knowing that Adobe Acrobat and Reader are old products past their prime, you may have to wait for the next version or until Adobe produces a 64-bit version of Reader.

Adober reader X and windows 7 PC cannot print to HP Officejet Pro K550 printer

Any suggestions for getting PDF documents to print using the above? Had exact same printer and same model HP PC printer working previously. I connect this printer to my current PC and it prints everything except PDFs. I am able to print PDFs to other printers. I have relaoded printer drivers and Adobe reader. Any suggestions?

Same Here,
Windows 7 professional 64 Bit Adobe Acrobat Reader X
Can print everything else on K550 But No PDF.
Can print PDF's on two other HP printers.
As stated No errors, Print never goes to printer que, just disappears ??
Funny used to print PDF before some Update ???
Was it Windows or Adobe that broke the PDF printing??

If I install the update to Adobe Reader 10, will that cause problems with Acrobat Pro 9?

Firefox (version 15.0.1) is telling me I need to install an update to Adobe Acrobat 9.4 in order to view pdf files in my browser. I use Acrobat Pro 9. The update is actually Adobe Reader 10, and I am wondering if I install this, will it cause problems with my version of Acrobat Pro?
Because I am not sure if this is so, I have temporarily disabled the plug-in and now pdf files download automatically rather than display in my browser. I would prefer they open in my browser but do not want to upgrade to Acrobat X.
My OS is Windows Vista. I did not include the "troubleshooting information" file because I'm not sure what specific info is being requested.
Thanks for any help.

Hi WMdotcom
did you try to view pdf with your acrobat pro 9 ?

Can the folder C:\Windows\Cache\Adobe Reader 6 and the files it contains simpley be deleted?

My daughter is running Adobe Reader 9.4.5 and Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X
on a Dell Dimension 4400 system with
Windows XP Home Edition version 2002 Service Pack 3.
During a full system backup using Seagate DiskWizard version 11.0.8326
each time folder C:\Windows\Cache\Adobe Reader 6
is accessed the pc freezes with the Blue Screen error
IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL ERROR 0x0000000A
(0x00000166, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x804E5443).
Each time the Adobe Reader 6 folder is opened manually, the system presents a spinning
CD icon superimposed on the cursor and attempts to access the CD drive.
The access ultimately fails since there is no CD loaded because there is no intent to install
anything at the moment.
Through a manual process of backing up each of the the files in the Adobe Reader 6 folder
individually, one at a time, I strongly suspect the problem file to be instmsiw.exe.
Can the folder C:\Windows\Cache\Adobe Reader 6 and the files it contains simpley be deleted?
Are there any registry entries or issues that must be addressed before deleting these files?
What is the best way to free up space on the C drive that is apparently being occupied by
files left over from the install of a prior version of Adobe Reader?
The folder C:\Windows\Cache\Adobe Reader 6 contains the following files:
0x0409.ini                        5KB          Configuration Settings        2/18/2003

Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

Go to Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel and uninstall Adobe Reader 6. That version poses a security risk to your system and should be removed a.s.a.p.
After you remove it, reboot and then delete the "Adobe Reader 6" folder at the location you mentioned above.
Then go to http://get.adobe.com/reader/direct/ and download version 9.4
After that installs, download the latest patch for it by opening the program, then go to Help | Check For Updates.
As a precaution, download the free version of Malwarebytes from here: http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free and then run a full system scan.

I've deleted Adobe Reader 11 and rebooted and reinstalled Adobe Reader 11 and I still get the error message that 'Adobe Reader is blocked because it is out of date'. Using Windows XP with the latest updates (SP3).

Screenshots attached to email replies will not make it back to the forum; you need to login to the forum and post it in your topic using the camera icon in the editor.
Google Chrome is a problem:
if you use Chrome's own PDF viewer, the results are unpredictable.
if you use the Adobe Reader plugin with Chrome, it may reject (block) it if it is not the latest version. Reader 11.0.08 is the latest version for Windows XP, but Chrome may insist on the current version 11.0.10.
My suggestion; use a different browser!

I installed Adobe Reader X and i can't print PDF's without opening Reader first

Hi, i am using windows XP and i just installed Adobe Reader X onto a workstation within' my office. I use to have Adobe Reader 9 where i could just open a folder with my PDF's. For example, My Documents folder and right click on the PDF i want to print, without opening the file in Adobe Reader first and then clicking print. With Adobe Reader X, i can't do the right click option and print because nothing happens.
Is they an option in Adobe Reader X i need to turn on or off, to get the function of printing by right clicking on the PDF file without opening Reader X to print please ?

Is it happening all the times or happened just in the starting when you hadn't accepted EULA?
Is it still happening after accepting EULA?
Also, can you please tell what printer exactly are you using?

I am having trouble printing a PDF document. Whenever I click print nothing happens but when I am printing documents from Word, Excel etc they print without a problem. I've tried printing as image but that did not work. I uninstalled Adobe Reader XI and d

I am having trouble printing a PDF document. Whenever I click print nothing happens but when I am printing documents from Word, Excel etc they print without a problem.

Adobe Reader 9 and MAC 10.5 xml data submit problem

I have an issue that only happens when using Adobe Reader 9 and Mac OSX 10.5.
When submitting a form from within a PDF, the FDF that gets sent is completely blank.
Tested on Mac OSX 10.4 with Adobe Reader 9 - no issue
Tested on Mac OSX 10.5 with Adobe Reader 8 - no issue
Tested on Mac OSC 10.5 with Adobe Professional 8 - no issue
It only seems to be a combination of OSX 10.5 and Reader 9. Does anyone have any clue about the settings of these two and what might be happening?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

We have encountered the same problem with Mac OSX 10.5 and Reader 9 when submitting a form as PDF. Form is certified and reader extended, working great on Windows machine.
Seems like a bug..
