Adobe Reader X opening old file revision/version

I have a user in my organization attempting to open a .PDF file in IE8 with Adobe Reader X and keeps getting an old revision of the file. When other users log on to the same PC and put in the URL to the same .PDF file then the newer revision of the file opens.
The only thing that I can think is that for some reason the user's Adobe Reader keeps loading an old version in cache. I have deleted IE Internet cookies & temporary files, but that didn't seem to help. I also opened Adobe Reader Preferences | Page Display and unchecked "Use Page Cache", but that didn't help. Neither did unchecking the boxes under Prefernces | Internet for "Allow fast web view" nor "Allow speculative downloading in the background".
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Out of curiousity, try using a different browser and see what happens? Which version gets downloaded?
Then try to use MSIE and right-click on the url and download the file? Which version of the file gets downloaded?

    Go to Tools - Options - Applications and enter "pdf" into the filter field. Select the action that you want to associate with PDF files.
    In your case select one of the "Use Adobe Acrobat" actions.

  • How do I prevent adobe reader from opening a file after it's saved from chrome adobe reader?

    Whenever I save a file from the chrome adobe reader, it opens automatically in adobe reader which is incredibly annoying. Please help!

    Ahh, but that's the design function of any PDF viewer add-on to a browser.
    To avoid -- Use the browser feature that saves a file to the local machine.
    Then open the file with the appropriate application.
    If your machine/device does not support this then you'd want to change to one that supports what you want eh.

  • Adobe reader not open the file immediately after saving it  with Microsoft Office

    I have an older version Adobe Reader 9, and worked fine until today. I did the upgrade to Adobe Reader XI (11.0.06).
    I have Window´s Office 2010 on my computer. When I save a document on *pdf file, Adobe starts automatically and open the document (Open file after publishing.) After the upgrade, documents are not open automatically and shows the next message:  "There was an error  during initialization. An internal error ocurrred." and  "There was an error opening this document. Access denied.". But if I try manually, files are open. How do I fix this problem.

    I'm having a similar issue.  The .pdf files open fine locally, but when I put them up online, they will not open and I get the same error message.  If I download and save the files, they show a 1KB file size instead of 168KB.
    Drive space is not an issue (looking at over 225GB of free space on the main drive).
    In searching on-line, the main cause I am finding is receiving the file via e-mail and a decoding issue.  This is not the case with these files as they were created on my machine and uploaded using Filezilla to the server.  I'm using Acrobat Pro 7.0 on a windows box running Vista Ultimate.
    Any ideas on what would be causing this issue?

  • Using adobe reader to open PDF files.

    I downloaded, and had to delete and try again, adobe reader.  I couldn't open the PDF files I wanted to.  What did I do wrong?  I tried this 3 times.  One sight I needed to download and print allowed me to go to my applications open Adobe Reader and download it then to my computer. However, then I had to securely trash it as it wasn't something I wanted to keep on my computer being a finance page.  Another company I tried to do it that way after it said it coudn't read it, and it didn't work.  I never had this trouble before until I downloaded this new adobe reader.  What did I do wrong?

    Thank you for the reply.  Answer to your operating system I have is:  Mac OSX Version 10.7.5
    I did download and install  Adobe Reader XI  11.0.0
    This is a different version that I first had, and I don't know where the first version went.
    This all started when our internet provider had problems that went to all areas.  I might have been working on something when I lost my original...now sure.
    When I tried to download a bank statement (and I tried to different banks using Firefox and Safari) I get the message:
    "Adobe Reader Cannot Show Documents in this browser.
    We are sorry, but Adobe Reader is unable to show documents in this browser configuration. Please use your browser to download this file and open it in Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat.  To avoid this message in the future, many browsers provide a way to turn off add-ons, and some are able to show this document, natively.  Please contact your browser vender for more details."
    I don't know what they mean by "natively."
    Then I get a gray screen that said adobe plug-inn had crashed so I could report it so I did.  Nothing happened with that.
    Next, I checked to see that my add-ons were turned off and they were, but then I saw the plug-in section and ran it to see if my plug-in's were up-to-date.  All were except when I came to Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Pug-in, Version 11.0.11.   Under it was a notice:  Notice Adobe recommend Acrobat Reader 9.3.  So I clicked on that and it brought me back to the screen to download Adobe Reader XI 11.0.0.  This seems to have brought me back to the beginning of the circle.
    ?  I definitely am stumped.  I guess I'm going to try to internet to see if I can get to Acrobat Reader 9.3.
    Thank you.  Eilsher

  • WHY WILL ADOBE READER NOT OPEN PDF FILES?

    I have just downloaded free Adobe Reader X. When I try to open a pdf file I immediately get a Microsfoft box saying "Adobe Reader has encountered a problem and needs to close"  I have Windows XP. Has anyone else experienced the problem and what did you do to fix the problem so pdf files open?  Setting in control panel is for al pdf's to be opened by Adobe Reader, and when I downloade, I briefly disabled my anti-virus software.  Really frustrating,  Can any one help?

    We saw the same symptoms as you describe.
    It turned out that the new sandbox feature in Reader X is not compatible with Re-Directed "Application Data" folders.
    Disabling the sandbox safety feature (via a special registry setting) appears to be a workaround, but somehow we now feel less safe.
    Folder redirection involves group policy as used in large corporations with IT teams to manage large numbers of PCs in companies.
    For example, in corporate environments, users My Documents and AppData folders are often re-directed at a secure server share, so that people's documents/photos/mp3s they save into my documents are secured on a server, instead of scattered about on various PCs.  Home users never use this technology.
    However, If you've got Adobe Reader X installed to a different DRIVE to the one where your APPDATA folder is, then you might get the same effect.
    I guess this could also happen to peole with Windows installed on their D: drives, and Adobe installed on the C: drive, or similar.

  • How can I get a free adobe reader to open the files that my instructor has sent and listen to her feedback

    Any Ideas?

    Hi tpcruiser22,
    Did your instructor provide PDF files?  You can get the free Adobe Reader for viewing them from www.adobe.com/products/reader.html.
    And if you want to "listen" to the files that your instructor provided, you can activate Read Out Loud in Reader by choosing View > Read Out Loud > Activate Read Out Loud.
    Best,

  • Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore.  It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version.  Please help?  I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

    Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore.  It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version.  Please help?  I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
              Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
              Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

    It sounds as if you downloaded Adobe Acrobat Pro. If you did, uninstall it. Then repair Adobe Reader.
    The free Acrobat account has no connection to any of this.
