Adobe Reader XI and CD

I have never use the Adobe Reader and have just tried with a CD and nothing is happening.  What do I do??

Q: How can I open Windows Explorer to the CD-ROM drive? (9,225 views)
      In the latest version of AutoRun Wizard you can open a folder at the root or you can choose to open a folder. There are 2 ways to accomplish opening the Windows Explorer to the CD-ROM drive. The first way is if you are not going to autorun any other files. If Windows Explorer is the only option for your autorun then you can simply choose the option on the Auto Launch tab to 'Open Windows Explorer to a folder on the CD-ROM'.
If you want to launch other files and then want to open Windows Explorer at the root of the CD-ROM you will have to choose to autorun another file. Then on the AutoRun File Properties you can choose the following options:
You need to choose 'explorer.exe' as the file to autorun. Then you must choose the option to 'allow the file to exist outside of the Base Folder'. Add a command line option to the %BASE_FOLDER% macro (case sensitive). %BASE_FOLDER% = The full path to your base folder on the target computer. For example if the CD-ROM drive on the computer was the F:\ drive, %BASE_FOLDER% would resolve to F:\.  Then save that autorun file and test your autorun. When it gets to the explorer.exe autorun, it will open Windows Explorer to the CD-ROM drive.
If you want Explorer to open a folder on the CD-ROM, you can add the folder name after %BASE_FOLDER% without the slash (\). For example if you had a folder named "photos" off the root of the cd and you wanted Explorer to open to the photos folder, do this:
%BASE_FOLDER%photos

    Hi Timia,
    If you are using Safari as a web browser :-
    Open Safari, go to Safari menu > Preferences > General, and put Google as the homepage. Then, choose Google as your default search engine.
    If you are using Google Chrome as the web browser :-
      Open Google Chrome.
      In the top right corner of the page, click the Chrome menu Chrome menu > Settings.
      In the "Search" section, select Google from the drop-down menu.
    Let me know if you still experience any issue.

  • Adobe Reader 9 and Mac OSX 10.5 - FDF Issue

    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.

    Mac OS 10.4.11: I could not open pdf docs today (12-24-08), uninstalled & installed Adobe Reader 9.0.0. pdf docs icons changed but open, however cannot open Reader from Applications and get: Adobe Reader
    Version 9.0.0
    Installing/fixing installation
    Then immediately get this error message:
    Adobe Reader could not install correctly.
    Adobe Reader was unable to install a necessary component
    and must quit.
    Any help out there for me?

  • Saving PDF forms in Adobe Reader 8 and below

    Hi everyone,
    I've created a PDF form for a survey using Acrobat XI Pro, and I've also Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in and save). I've tried it on Reader 9, X and XI, and I'm able to fill out the form, save it and email it back to myself. I've also emailed it to a few of my friends to try out the form and email it back to me, and most of them are able to do so.
    But the problem is one of my friends who's using Reader 8 is unable to save the completed form. This message comes out when he tries to save it:
    "This document contained certain rights to enable special features in Adobe Reader. The document has been changed since it was created and these rights are no longer valid. Please contact the author for the original version of this document."
    I've tried reading about this problem online, but I can't seem to find a satisfactory answer anywhere. I'm not sure if anyone knows of a way to overcome this, or if it's just simply that Adobe Reader 8 and below are unable to save a PDF form.
    Please help, I'm really at my wit's end.

    Windows Vista.
    I'm trying to make sure my form works for every one of my respondents, as I can't be sure what kind of Reader versions each respondent will be using.

    The add annotations field shows as not allowed in the security options. So how do I send this form back with the changes??

    I think you you need to click 'save' first, then it is saved to acrobat, where it will prompt to send.

    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!

    Hi noswam123,
    If a PDF file is password protected, the only way to open that document is with the password. You will have to get that password from the person who created the PDF.

  • Deleting Adobe Reader 8 and 9 after Upgrading to 10

    I upgraded several months ago but noticed that Adobe Reader 8 and 9 are still in my Adobe folder under programs.  Can I delete those folders/files or does Reader 10 need them??

    The standard advise is to rewmove all traces of previous versions of
    Reader before proceeding to a new install. If the previous versions have
    not been removed, the standard advise is to remove all trace
    s of Reader (all versions), and then rein
    stalling the one you want. To eliminate
    Reader, you can follow the procedure described here:

  • Century gothic displays in adobe reader 8 and not in 9

    Hi
    I have created a pdf using adobe livecycle and i have set the address font in my header to Century Gothic. When i view the doc in Adobe reader 8, it shows it exactly the way i want. When i view it in adobe 9, it has changed to arial. Why is this happening? and how can i prevent it from changing when viewed in the different versions of adobe reader?
    Also, it doesnt make sense to say that the font is supported in adobe 8 and NOT in 9. Surely capability should be backward compatible?
    PLEASE HELP!!!
    Fatima

    Hi Hitender
    The document does not show the correct font in Adobe Reader 9.0. We have now downgraded our adobe reader on the server where we are printing the docs from.  We have tried installing the font onto that server but that was also unsuccessful.
    Please let me know if you have any advice for my problem.
    Thanks

  • 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?

    Adobe reader  X and XI search don´t find text like other programs including adobe reader 9? Thanks

    You mean, you are trying to search text in a PDF file, and you can do it in Reader 9 but not in later versions of Reader (using the same file)?

    YOu need to be clear about the products you are using, so we can help you. In particular there is no trial of Adobe Reader, it is free and keeps running. Sounds like you are using some versions of Acrobat - which?
    YOu must properly uninstall the trial, don't just delete files or you may get a mess impossible to recover.
