Adobe Reader XI hangs & doesn't close

I recently updated the reader and keep getting exception errors (0xc06d007e) and (0x40000015). Is there a fix for this? I have gone to the program and "fixed" the problems twice and they are not fixed.

That just may have done the trick! Thank you

How to install adobe reader if it doesn't accept my password?

Adobe Reader XI hangs Internet Explorer!

We support several clients and as each PC upgrades to Adobe Reader XI it breaks the IE Add-On (view in browser) capability.
The pdf starts to download, pops up in the browser, and then in about 5-10 seconds hangs until it times out (45 minutes later).
IE then throws up the error "A network error occurred while accessing this document on the Internet. Would you like to close the document or reload it?"
If the user downloads the pdf it works; if the user uses Chrome or FF it works! Have tried disabling the "Fast View". It just then allows me to see when it stops downloading.
I have tried Windows XP, Win7 & Win8 and different versions of IE and they all fail!
I am seeing this across all my clients!
Sometimes, if I disable the Add-on it will then download and open it in Adobe Reader but sometimes (haven't figured out the exact combination but IE9 & Win 7 fails) even though it's disabled, it still opens it in the browser and hangs.
I created a GPO that disables the Add-n but it continues to try to open it in the IE browser.
Help!

We've been testing this some more, and we've discovered our problem. We have a Xerox global print driver installed on our computers that runs our printer.
If we take a file created in the Microsoft Suite, whether Word or Excel, and print to PDF through the print driver, and then upload that file to a website and provide a link in a page for people to click, the PDF throws an error in Internet Explorer, giving the error listed above, and fails to open. The PDF opens fine locally through Internet Explorer, and you can view the file through the "View" option in Gmail. You can also view that file in Firefox and Chrome with no problem. And the file downloads just fine.
If we take the same file and use the "Save As" option in the Microsoft program to save the file as a PDF and upload that to a website, the file opens just fine in Internet Explorer, as well we everywhere else.
The print driver is doing something in the PDF-making process that bothers Internet Explorer.

Adobe reader 8.12 wants to close windows explorer?

Hello, I am running Windows Vista Ultimate with SP1 and I really need to install Adobe Reader as I am entering into a Cisco Networking course soon, but I'm having a problem I don't quite understand.
It says the following applications are using files that need to be updated by this setup. Close this applications and click retry to continue.
And the program listed is windows explorer.
My options are retry, ignore, and exit.
Retry doesn't work heh, and exit, well it exits installer of course. I haven
t clicked ignore because I lost my account profile once already from an old photoshop cs2 disc i tried to install on vista.
Any advice?

Did you try closing Windows Explorer?

Adobe reader won't open and closes internet when trying to open a pdf

I'm not sure when it started, but for the last 2 weeks every time I try to open a pdf file on the internet it stops and says "internet Explorer has stopped working" and will then close the window. I thought it was just a cable (internet connection) problem since we had been having issues in that area, but now that's fixed and I still cannot open a pdf on the internet. I uninstallled and restarted and re-installled Adobe Reader and I can't even open Adobe Reader much less a pdf from the internet. Please help! I've also tried installing Safari and it has the same results. I'm sure it has to do with my Reader, but I just don't know how to fix it.

I finally uninstalled Adobe Reader and found a free pdf reader program. At least now I can save the file I want to look at and can
open it with the other program. Thanks for all your suggestions and help. I learned a lot of new things. Sorry Adobe... your loss

Adobe Reader XI hangs on "receiving data" after submitting to php

I am submitting PDF fillable form to php, then pdf is save & email to destination. It works, I receive the pdf filled file via email; However, in Safari works perfect redirects, etc. When using FireFox, Chrome, then Adobe Reader opens.
Then when submitting from Adobe Reader, it works fine, I receive the email with attachment.
The problem is that Adobe Reader hangs "receiving data" for a long time, then I get this message "An error occurred during the submit process. The network service you are trying to reach could not process the request."
I do get the file via email and it is fine. What is Adobe Reader waiting for?.
Thanks in advance

I do not think it is returning anything, here is the php code ...
<?php
$fileatt = date("d-m-Y-His") . ".pdf"; // Creates unique PDF name from the date
copy('php://input',"pdfs/".$fileatt); // Copies the pdf form data to a folder named pdfs
$fileatt = "pdfs/".$fileatt; // Path to the file gives the pdfs folder plus the unique file name we just assigned
$fileatt_type = "application/pdf"; // File Type
$fileatt_name = "Application Form_".$fileatt.".pdf"; // Filename that will be used for the file as the attachment when it is sent
$email_from = "mywebsite"; // Who the email is from
$email_subject = "Completed online Applications"; // The Subject of the email
$email_message = "Please find a recent online application attached.
$email_message .= "Any problems please email me...
"; // Message that the email has in it
$email_to = "[email protected]"; // Who the email is to
$headers = "From: ".$email_from;
//no need to change anything else under this point
$file = fopen($fileatt,'rb');
$data = fread($file,filesize($fileatt));
fclose($file);
$semi_rand = md5(time());
$mime_boundary = "==Multipart_Boundary_x{$semi_rand}x";
$headers .= "\nMIME-Version: 1.0\n" .
"Content-Type: multipart/mixed;\n" .
" boundary=\"{$mime_boundary}\"";
$email_message .= "This is a multi-part message in MIME format.\n\n" .
"--{$mime_boundary}\n" .
"Content-Type:text/html; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n" .
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n\n" .
$email_message .= "\n\n";
$data = chunk_split(base64_encode($data));
$email_message .= "--{$mime_boundary}\n" .
"Content-Type: {$fileatt_type};\n" .

$ok = @mail($email_to, $email_subject, $email_message, $headers);
if($ok) {
unlink($fileatt); //NOW WE DELETE THE FILE FROM THE FOLDER pdfs

Adobe Reader XI Hang up problem

How do you fix hang ups when you open adobe reader XI (11.0.03)? When I click on the adobe button the program comes up but no further action can be done as the hour glass just keeps on rotating until the "end this session" error message comes up.

Why does my Adobe Reader X hang ?

I am using Windows XP 32-Bit with Adobe Reader X Verison 10.0.1.434
I often download and view PDFs in my browser, however, lately, I have noticed that my my browser hangs everytime I choose to save the PDF to my computer.
This hanging takes place when I use IE 7, Mozilla Firefox Version 4.0.1 and Google Chrome 11.
What is the issue as this is becoming quite frustrating.

Hi,
This "timeout at 64%" issue has been reported more than a few times here.
You can try direct download from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
If you can dedicate some time and help to investigate the issue, here is what I would ask:
Before trying the link I have provided, can you please enable verbose MSI logging and try to install Reader the way you did originally - I assume that you used Adobe.com, right?
If it fails again at 64%, please find the latest MSIxxxxx.log file in the Temp folder and send it to me.
To enable Windows Installer logging
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/223300
...open the registry with Regedit.exe and create the following path and keys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer
Reg_SZ: Logging
Value: voicewarmupx
The Temp folder on Windows XP is
C:\Documents and Settings\[YourUserName]\Local Settings\Temp

Yes it runs twice, if I let it go for about 2 minutes and do not touch it or try to do anything with it, it will start to work and it will only show up once in the task manager, however if I open it and try to scroll, zoom, or even close it, it will freeze completely.

Adobe Reader install hang

Hi, I'm trying to install Adobe Reader (Windows 7, 64-bit, Firefox, have tried installing both v.9.4 English and 10.1.1. English) and the install hangs halfway through each time I've tried. It downloads fine. Anyone have any insights? Thanks!

You may want to try the following.
Remove all traces of Reader (not only the program) from your system using the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility. This is no longer supported by Microsoft because it can produce problems with Win 7, but you can still download it from from places like
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
Then, download the Reader installer from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
and perform a clean install.

"can't load because some files are already in use" - Adobe reader! How do i close whatever i can't find that they say is in use!?

Can anyone help me get Adobe reader 11 installed??? The error message when I'm practically done says the file can't be loaded because some files are already in use - and it refers to Adobe reader! What do I do to get past this??? Help! I need to install adobe!
I had been having a problem after I tried to do an adobe update, so i deleted and tried to reinstall the program and it won't let me ! Any suggestions???

Hi Jody414,
Use the Acrobat Cleaner tool ( Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool - Adobe Labs ) to remove Reader completely from the machine.
Download Reader 11 from: Adobe - Adobe Reader Distribution and install and check.

Adobe reader for iOS doesn't show markups?

I have pdf documents with markups prepared on Windows 7. When I upload to iOS from drop-box, then only the original document show, no markups. However, from the same drop-box, the Android tables displays all markups?
P.S. have this problem since we switched to iOS tables. Reader is up to date, have downloaded the latest update yesterday.
Any suggestions?

Thank you for the response, but I have since discovered the PDF is opened in a non Adobe app, probably that of Apple as you suggest.
If I select an alternative app from within the PDF reader, and select the Adobe reader, all markups display correctly.
I was not aware that there possibly could be a build-in PDF reader in iOS.
I was caught in this trap since the adobe reader does not have build in facilities to access the drop-box. Neither has drop-box, as with the Android app, the prompt to select an appropriate app for the document selected.
