Adobe Reader XI keeps prompting to update to version 11.0.3

Adobe Reader XI keeps prompting to update to version 11.0.3 even though the installed version is already 11.0.3.
How can I stop this unnecessary update prompting occurring?

Thanks for the response Stacy and Bill.
The link to disable updates is giving a 404 error and if I go to the Knowledgebase link and search for “disable automatic updates | acrobat, reader” I just get links to forum threads.
I have attached a snip of my Check for updates preference. I don’t want to go for the no notification option and I don’t trust the auto download options given that I keep getting so many notifications that the same update is available as the version I have: I fear that would simply continuously download the same update over and over.
I’ll try the link you gave me again later to see if I can reach that page.
Thanks again,
Mike

Why don't the Adobe Acrobat 10.1.6 and Adobe Reader 9.5.4 patches update the version on the exe file

Why don't the Adobe Acrobat 10.1.6 and Adobe Reader 9.5.4 patches update the version on the exe file ? My vulnerability reports show these installations are not patched when they really are.

Hi All,
I also facing the same issue with Adobe reader 9.5.4 version update.
Previous Version installed: 9.5.3
AcroRd32.exe - File Version 9.5.3.305
AcroRd32.dll - File version 9.5.3.305
After update installation to 9.5.4, add or remove program shows latest version but exe and dll is not updated. Vulnerability assessment tools based on file version check identifies patch is still missing. Becomes a HEAD ACHE.
Adobe Reader 9 > Help > About Adobe Reader 9 - First shows version 9.5.4, if your click on it instead of showing AGM version next it shows version 9.5.3.305.
I tested for all previous versions of 9x, works fine in each update. Seems like patch is missing codes for updating file versions.
Waiting for an acknowledgement.

Adobe Reader X Crashes after Java Update to Version 7 Update 51

I just installed the new Java update Version 7 Update 51 and now Adobe Reader X crashes in Windows 8.1 within 3 seconds, any advise would be helpful.

Thanks. I've posted there as well. Anyone know if there's a workaround to keep reader from crashing with this form, or is my only option to roll back the servers until the creator of the form updates it?
(I have notified their webmaster of the issue, but who knows how long it will take the state to update the form.)

Macbook pro - iPhoto keep prompting to update after Yosemite update. Error message when trying to update -This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was cancelled

macbook pro - iPhoto keep prompting to update after Yosemite update. Error message when trying to update -This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled.

I only have 1 apple ID and the same was used to set up this early 2011 macbook pro and iPhoto app. I don't want to loose out on any photos. I tried logging out of app store and back in but no luck. PLEEAASEE HELPP!!!
This problem has been reported by quite a few forum members, who skipped the update to iPhoto 9.5.1 while running Mavericks. In that case try to purchase iPhoto again instead of updating.
After making your backup try the following:
Uninstall iPhoto by deleting it from the applications folder, but do not empty the Trash.
Launch the App Store, click the "Store" menu, and sign in with your AppleID.
Open the main page of the App Store and search for iPhoto.
If iPhoto is listed as "Free", click the "Free" button to buy it with your current AppleID.
If it is not showing as free, there is no help but contacting the App Store Support, as Niel pointed out: http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact/

Adobe Reader 11.0.04 SCUP update causing SCCM 2007 SP2 R3 client to crash

When we started deploying the 11.0.0.4 update for Adobe Reader provided for System Center Updates Publisher (SCUP), we started having failures with our Operating System Deployments. When the 11.0.0.4 update installs during the Install Software Updates (via WSUS) step, it stops the SCCM client, causing the SCCM client to crash and uninstall. When the SCCM client uninstalls, it breaks the OSD process and the image process fails. Our current .wim file has Adobe Reader 11.x patched to the 11.0.0.3 level. We are using SCUP 2011. Everything was working ok until this update came out. We even tried creating an SCCM software distribution package to deploy the update and it still crashes the SCCM client when installed that way. Has anyone seen similar issues in their SCCM environments? Does Adobe have a support number available to get help with these types of issues? Thanks.

Try using the Adobe doc: 1 Introduction — Enterprise Administration Guide
Also, you'll find installing and updating via bootstrapper is easier than AIP over the long haul.

What is Adobe Reader MUI 9.3.4 update - multiple languages

I have a choice of 2 downloads from Adobe
Adobe Reader MUI 9.3.4 update - multiple languages and
Adobe Reader 9.3.4 update - multiple languages
Both are the same size and date.
What is the difference between these?

Adobe Reader MUI is Adobe's Multilingual User Interface version. This product is capable of installing any combination of supported languages. So, for example, you can install French, German, and Spanish simultaneously and then have the capability toswitch among those languages within Adobe Reader. The user interface changes to the appropriate language on the fly.
So if you have MUI Reader 9.3.3(and NOT normal Reader) in your machine and want to update it to 9.3.4 choose Adobe Reader MUI 9.3.4 update - multiple languages otherwise choose Adobe Reader 9.3.4 update - multiple languages (for normal Reader).
To check what you have in your machine, Goto Control Panel>Add or Remove Programs and check the entry of Adobe Reader.
For MUI reader it will be
"Adobe Reader 9.3.3 MUI"
and for normal Reader it will be
"Adobe Reader 9.3.3"

Secunia Software Inspector Reporting Adobe Reader 8.1.2 Security Update 1 Missing

After deploying Adobe Reader 8.1.2 Security Update 1 to all of our managed computers, I ran a vulnerability scan using Secunia Software Inspector (http://secunia.com/software_inspector) and it is reporting that Adobe Reader is insecure (it is version 8.1.0.137) and references Secunia advisory SA30832 (http://secunia.com/SA30832). Specifically it reports that C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe is version 8.1.0.137, which it is. However, running Adobe Reader and selecting Help \ About Adobe Reader 8... from the menu reports that Adobe Reader is version 8.1.2. And selecting Help \ Check for Updates... from the menu reports "There are no updates available at this time." Shavlik NetChk also does not report Adobe Reader 8.1.2 Security Update 1 as missing.
The security bulleting from Adobe (http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb08-15.html) does not contain sufficient information to know if the security update has been correctly applied (there is no manifest of files with versions and dates to check).
It appears to me that the file C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe is not sufficient to determine the version of the installed Adobe Reader, that the update to Adobe Reader 8.1.2 does not update the version of this file, and that Adobe Security Update 1 does not update this file. Therefore, I suspect that Secunia Software Inspector is incorrectly reporting that Adobe Reader is vulnerable. However, without details from Adobe about what file are updated and what versions they should be, I cannot be sure.
How can I be sure that Adobe Reader is not vulnerable (it is fully up-to-date)?

July 9 2008 When I run secunia inspector I am still getting a message that I have an earlier version of Adobe Reader installed though I have 8.1.2 including the security update for 8.1.2 installed. Here is what I get:
(quote)
This installation of Adobe Reader 8.x is insecure and potentially exposes your system to security threats!
The detected version installed on your system is 8.1.0.137, however, the latest secure version released by the vendor, fixing one or more vulnerabilities, is 8.1.2.215.

Adobe Reader XI 11.0.09 Update broke image signatures

I allowed my computer to download and install the latest Adobe Reader XI update, to version 11.0.09. Since doing that, I can no longer sign PDFs. Adobe Reader "forgot" my signature, and prompts me to create a new one, but gives me an error when I try to do so.
The steps I take: I click on Fill & Sign at the upper right. From the Fill & Sign Tools pane, I choose Place Signature. Since Adobe Reader has forgotten my signature, I am prompted by a dialog box that starts with How would you like to create your signature?. I tick the Use an image radio button, then click the Browse... button that appears below it. I choose my signature, which happens to be a BMP file, and click the Open button. Adobe Reader then gives me an error message: This file cannot be used to create a signature. Please select a different file and try again.
I tried converting my BMP file to a TIFF file, but that didn't help.
I need to be able to sign PDF documents again. Is this a bug waiting for a fix, or is there a work-around?
I badly need this feature back again.

Hi, thanks for your prompt responses.
I am a bit perplexed. I take it that, although I have the latest Adobe Reader XI (11.0.10) installed with the latest update 32 and I can open it and use it to read PDF's it is not the correct version for Vista ? As I said when I used the Firefox plug in check, which triggered this whole issue for me, and clicked the red button to update it took me to an Adobe update install page which only offered the 10.1.4 English UK for Windows download (Which you say is actually the correct version for Vista) but this did not complete because it said I have a more functional version already installed which I presume is the 11.0.10 version ?
Do I now need to download the Adobe Reader 'Full Download': Adobe Reader MUI 10.1 - Multiple Languages version 146.67 MB 6/8/2011 or just the Adobe Reader 10.1.4 update, although I may find that I just get the same result as I do using the Firefox update button, it does not complete and I am informed I have a more 'functional version' installed ? Again there are two options for these Updates on the Adobe download page 'All languages' and 'Multi lingual (MUI) installer' and I am not sure what the difference is or , more important, which to use and the Help>About Adobe Reader offers no clue.
Further advice appreciated as I am a bit flummoxed ! Thanks .

Firefox keeps prompting an update, but can't complete it. It gets stuck on "Connecting to the Server" and runs for hours until I stop it. Help!

I have a Mac OS X ver. 10.5.8 and I've used Firefox on it since I got it 3 years (?) ago. The most recent update for both Firefox and Thunderbird keeps prompting me, but when I say "yes" to update, a bar appears with lines moving through it and it says, "Connecting to the update Server" but it never gets any farther. I've left it for hours at a time and it won't actually update either program.

If you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded

Highlight in Adobe Reader X not working after update to 10.1.1

Hello
We have an application aimed at assisting people with reading difficulties. For that purpose we have written an Adobe Reader plugin which makes our application able to read text from PDF documents. While it reads it also highlights the words it is reading so that the user can keep up with it. However, after the 10.1.1 update of the Reader the highlighting no longer works.
The plugin was originally developed using Acrobat SDK 8.1, but the problem remained even after I upgraded to SDK 10. The highlighting is done using the AV-layer with the AVPageViewHighlightText() method.
We need to know if there is something in this recent update which breaks the highlight functionality, and if so, is it intentional?
PS: We are running with Protected Mode disabled since reading doesn’t work at all with it.

Ok, I found the problem.
We are using the void AVPageViewDrawNow(AVPageView pageView) method to make sure that some changes are applied in certain cases. The behavior of this method seems to be different in Adobe Reader 10.1.1. Removing the call brought our highlighting back to life.

Adobe reader DC keeps installing over 11

Use Reader 11 and lately every time I return to my computer, Reader DC is now the default reader. I did not want to change from 11 so I remove DC and reinstall 11. the next day I return to my computer and DC is back !!
I do not like DC, do not want to use DC, I want 11 to be my default. Is there a reason DC keeps installing over 11??? Can I stop this somehow? I do NOT want to use DC, I do not like its interface nor any of its "improved" features, I just want to stay with 11 and be left the h*ll alone by DC.
Can anyone shed some light on this??
I have to go now, have to again remove DC and reinstall 11

Thank you, it is all good except the third step. I do NOT want DC on my system, I only want version 11 and no further since my other software does not play well with DC including my Chrome browser. I did follow the steps you mentioned and still DC managed to install itself over 11 so I had no luck keeping it from returning. Even if you tell it not tu update it does whatever it wants anyway. My current solution, which is a bad option but I have no choice, is to install a different brand of viewer. I prefer to have Adobe Reader 11 but it only lasts for a day before DC comes in and takes over. I am not sure even the removal tool from Adobe can remove it. I have scanned my system for viruses with 3 different packages and found none. There is something about Dc still stuck there and it will not go away. I may have to go manually into my registry and delete every single Adobe key and sub-key there, that will take a while.

CC keeps prompting to update

Adobe Reader corrupted. Won't update

I thought there was something wrong when I was downloading updates for the Adobe Reader 10 series when I already had Adobe 11 series. But the updates came right from Adobe, or at least they made themselves look like it. And the updates kep coming for the Adobe Reader 11.0.03 but will not download because they say there is a problem. So I am going to fix it once and for all by getting rid of Adobe Reader and reloading it from the Adobe page.
being the same place I was getting the bogus updates.
Can anyone tell me how to uninstall Adobe Reader altogether?

Okay. Use Terminal to forcibly remove it. Type the following command, with a space included, but DO NOT press enter yet.
sudo rm -rf
Drag the application into the terminal window to complete the path. Again, do not press enter before you drag the Application into Terminal.
It will look something like:
sudo rm -rf /Applications/Adobe\ Reader.App
