Adobe Reader X wouldn't load correctly nor will it uninstall

Installed AR X update over 9.4.3 with XP. Getting error upon trying to use; it can't delete using Control Panel; same error comes up when Updater insists on running every time I log in to PC. Got a screenshot but I'll be damned how to put it on this form. "enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'AdbeRdr940_en_us.msi'". Tell me how can I delete it and reinstall AdbeRdr...

Hello,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
Please use this Document to uninstaller Adobe Reader : http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/400/kb400769.html
Thanks

    Your signature in 1st post was 10.8.2.
    You went backwards?
    Did you reformat and reinstall when you first purchased it?
    If not I HIGHLY recommend you do that before you do anything else.

  • My adobe acrobat forms do not load correctly. I have uptodate version of that software.

    I am an immigration attorney and have an online immigration program I use daily. Since the last upgrade of Firefox, the immigration forms (adobe acrobat) for my clients do not load correctly. I get a message that the forms may not display correctly with an option to open with a different viewer. The form opens correctly if I choose this option, but the form does not allow me to add and save information to the client's file so it is of no use to me. if this cannot be corrected I will stop using Firefox.

    hello, firefox 19 has introduced its own integrated pdf viewer - if you want to switch back to the plugin you've used before to view pdfs just go to firefox options > applications & define the default action for the ''portable document format (pdf)''.

  • My Adobe Reader Plugin does not Load in Some Machines

    Hi ,
    I have created a Plugin for Adobe Reader 9 and Adobe Reader X.
    As per the licence it has to work with both the version.
    My plugin gets loaded in Adobe Reader 9 and Adobe Reader X versions only in development machines and few of the testing machines and My plugin works fine in these machine as per the task it has to do.
    I tried to test My plugin in some machines which has same configuration as that of the machines where My plugin was able to load, but i could see My plugin loaded only in some machines and all other machine its not getting loaded.
    Please some one let me know why is this happening and how to overcome this. I think i am missing something to load My Plugin but in some machines i was able to load My plugin without doing any settings other than copying My plugin's .api file to Reader Plugin's folder.
    Thanks in advance. Please some one help me out.

    Hi Irosenth ,
    I was getting the below error when i saw the EventViewer.
    Error : Activation context generation failed for "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\plug_ins\MyPlugin.api".

Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis.
    Now i added the required Redistributables while packing all the files and tested it in target machine..
    All is Well Now..., Thanks you Very Much. ...

  • Adobe Reader for iPad mini IOS 8.0 will not load???

    Loaded, deleted, multiple times.  Restarted iPad multiple times.  Will not load.  Opens with blank screen, stays blank forever.

    Here are a couple of things that you could try.
    If you have iCloud backup before the iOS 8.0.2, you can restore the content of your iPad. See iCloud - Backup - Apple Support
    You can completely uninstall and reinstall Adobe Reader for iOS.  Before you uninstall Reader, please be sure to make the backup of your PDF documents on your iPad.  How to backup and restore PDF documents on your iPad/iPhone using iTunes
    As a last resort,  you could completely reset your iPad to factory settings.  Go to Settings > General > Reset, and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  Please note that you will lose all of your application data (including preferences) stored on your iPad if you do this.  But you can download and install all of your free & paid apps again.
    If none of the above works, it could be a hardware problem with your iPad.  You may want to visit the Genius Bar at your nearby Apple Store.

  • Adobe Reader X slow to load in Remote Desktop Environment when multiple users have the application r

    I have Adobe Reader X installed in a Remote Desktop (Citrix XenApp 6.5) environment and find the more people running the process the slower it is to load (it can take up to 15 seconds).  The delay is not related to how loaded the servers are and all other applications load very quickly.  I have tried disabling protected mode and messages, but it does not help.  Does anyone know what is going on here?  Thanks.

    Looks like this may have been caused by the FileOpen plugin.  Now removed and for now working ok.

  • Adobe Reader becomes unresponsive when loading a PDF on a network with redirected user data.

    I have a client with redirected user data, including application data, that is experiencing poor performance of Adobe Reader when trying to view PDF's. They are not using roaming profiles but do have redirected user data and documents on a server. One of the client's sites has direct file access to the domain with a small network pipe of 20MB. I expect the slow load of the PDF's but not the actual "application is unresponsive" behavior. If you wait for 10-15 minutes, then it seems to behave okay.
    I know that previous versions of adobe reader had problems with redirected data. Here are a couple of the threads I found talking about this issue.

    Does anyone know the official adobe word on their minimum recommended bandwidth requirements for redirected data? Do they not support redirection at all? I have tested Adobe 9,10 and 11 with the same problems.  Local files still have problems with redirected user data but local users with local files have no problem. Alternate PDF programs still take time to load the file over the network but do not seem to have the application hang problems. Any ideas or suggestions?

    in AS2, use getURL("data/pdf/nameoffile.pdf",
    "_blank");

  • The Adobe Reader conversion ability to Word (.docx files) will not work. How can I get my money back?

    I signed up and paid for the service that Adobe Reader advertizes that says it can convert PDF files to Word (.docx) files. I tried it immediately after purchasing it and it did not work. What it did was it converted it to a .docx file but the content was in the form of a picture and therefore uneditable. This does me no good. Basically, it took a screen shot of the PDF and then inserted it as a picture into a word file. I wouldn't call that conversion. I would like my money back. How can I get my money refunded to me?

    If the original PDF was an image, you need to perform OCR (text recognition) during the conversion.

  • Adobe Reader 8.1.2 wont finish install and wont uninstall

    I downloaded adobe 8.1.2 onto my Toshiba laptop and it fails to open pdf files on my Windows Vista 64 bit version. i removed all i could and Adobe wont uninstall i get an error message 2330. i tried to install Adobe 9 on top but it would only go as far as removing old versions and fails and rewinds installation. so NOW i cant read pdf's and stuck with a non-functioning adobe.
    how can i remove this or fix it?

    Wonder why that was so confusing to understand. If you want help on why something is failing on your Windows Vista Box, the Adobe Reader for "Unix" is the last forum that you should be writing to. You do know that Vista isn't Unix, right?

  • How do I set Adobe Reader XI so that a saved pdf will be saved in the last folder saved?

    When I save a group of PDF files, I want them all saved in the same folder.  How do I configure so that each fille will be saved in the last folder that was used to save, rather than having to browse for the save folder each time?

    I am replying to my own question. I learned that if you right click when trying to open a PDF, you are asked which app you wish to use to open the file. If you click on Get Info, instead of choosing an app, you get this great information box which gives you the option to set Adobe Reader as your default app for PDF files. It even allows you to change all the pdf files you already have to Adobe Files. Yay.

  • I have Adobe Reader X installed, but no pdf's will open.

    The problem seemed to start after installing the app needed to watch the Olympics.  That app was uninstalled.  Uninstalling & reinstalling Reader does not seem to help.  Any suggestions?  I get no error.  Reader simply does not respond at all.

    I do not quite understand the connection between Flash Player and Adobe Reader; they are entirely different programs.
    Questions:
    can you open Adobe Reader by itself, e.g. from the desktop icon?
    can you open PDF documents from your local disk?
    can you open online PDF documents, e.g. http://helpx.adobe.com/content/dam/help/attachments/Acrobat_Reader_ReleaseNote_10.1.3.pdf ?
    When the answer of any of these questions is no, then please explain what exactly happens instead?
    P.S. if you have problems with online PDFs, what is the web browser you use?

  • Does Adobe Reader need the internet enabled before it will read a document?

    For the past two days my internet has been down due to 'electric' storms in the UK. I tried to open a few .PDF files during this time, and they would open but as soon as I tried to scroll down, they froze and said "Adobe Reader is Not Responding".
    As soon as the internet came back on, I tried again and they all opened and were 'scrollable'! I never realised that Adobe Reader needed the internet to function before it would work.
    Is this normal?

    I wasn't aware that was normal behaviour. Most people have laptops that are at some point NOT connected to the internet. One would hope that the pdf reader works regardless, how about all the business users that like to read documents during a flight etc... The examples are countless.
    Cheers.
