Adobe Reader XI not working for me (Windows 7)

I just installed adobe reader XI and now I can't open any PDF files. The application itself won't even start properly. The default window opens but then it completely shutsdown without any indication of why it did so. No error report or anything.

I found the solution to the program itself not opening properly on another thread on this site.  See below:
I spoke to a colleague about what was happening, and he had me reinstall Adobe Reader XI and attempt to start it.  I then navigated to the C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader\ folder and double-clicked the Eula.exe. It displayed the End User License Agreement window and I clicked 'Accept'. After doing that I was able to start the Reader without issue and it all seems to be working fine now.
The above worked for me and now Reader XI will open properly and stay open.  Hope this helps someone else.

  • After upgrading, Adobe reader is not working.

    After upgrading to 10.10.2, Adobe reader is not working. It is asking for user agreement to be signed. I cannot find this again. I have uninstalled and re-installed but still does not appear. I have tried to contact Adobe with no luck. Can anyone help please?

    Since you are running OS X 10.10.2, you do not have an iMac (PPC) so you have posted in the wrong forum. I have requested the Hosts to move your post to the correct forum where hopefully someone will see it and help you.

  • Adobe reader will not work with games

    adobe reader will not work with games

    That is correct. Adobe Reader is intended for viewing PDF files, not for playing games. Perhaps you are thinking of Adobe Flash Player?

  • Adobe DV is not working for Video out in CS6!

    Adobe DV is not working for Video out in CS6!
    I verified my DV device is working fine with Premier Pro CS6.
    Anybody ever get this to work?

    Stan,
    First, the two audio/video output preferences in Encore CS4 and CS6 have different looks, as seen in the images below.
    But both are going out through DV/Firewire. Premiere Pro CS6 has the same look and settings as Encore CS6 and the Preview goes out to the monitor.
    CS4 -first image and CS6 -second image.

  • Adobe Reader 10 not working with Mac OS 10.6.7 browser

    After upgrading to Mac OS 10.6.7, Adobe Reader 10 will not download a pdf file properly from either Safari or Firefox. In either browser, the resulting page is totally blank. Downloading older versions of Adobe Reader has not resolved the issue. Outside of any connection with a browser, Adobe Reader 10 works flawlessly as a free standing program. Would be grateful for any assistance.

    For everyone having the problem:
    Highlight one of your .pdf documents. Hit Command + I on the keyboard for the "get info" window to open up.
    Check to see what the "Open with" shows. If it is not Preview, choose Preview. You may have to click on the little lock in the bottom right corner first to unlock it and enter your admin password. When done, click the little lock to close it. Close the window. Restart computer. Try a .pdf now to see if it works.

  • Adobe reader does not work properly

    My adobe reader doesn not open articles. All I get is a blank gray screen and a small circle where it looks like the file is trying to load. The reader use to open files with no problem and then it just didn't work correctly

    Hi Jaadbrown
    You have two options to solve the problem:
    1.- Remenber that every Mac can read all PDF format file with your "Preview App".
    2.- You can uninstall your adobe reader deleting the App from your Aplication folder and download for free on the Official Adobe site in this link http://get.adobe.com/reader/?promoid=JZEFU
    Good luck ... I hope it helps you!

  • Why is the 'Next' button in 508 Screen Reader mode not working for RichTree

    Hi ADF Experts,
    My JDeveloper version is 11.1.1.8. The 'Next' button in 508 Screen Reader mode for tables works fine.
    However, it does not work for trees, I can see only the first 23 or so items.
    Any ideas?
    What am I missing here?
    Regards,
    -ab

    There is no official JDeveloper version is 11.1.1.8.0!
    If you use an internal build ou should post to an internal forum.
    If you use an official version please tell us which on.

  • Deploying Adobe reader plugin not working

    Hi
    I have an adobe reader plugin that works on my development machine. It displayes the toolbar in the "Extended" tab. I copied the .api file onto the plugins folder on another machine but the extended tab does not display. I also copied this onto the plugins folder just to test and this works.
    Does anyone have any ideas? Is there some place where it(adobe reader) logs errors?.

    One of the limitations of plug-ins (in many apps) is that they tend to have to be developed in the same language as the host. Otherwise the cost of converting linkages makes plug-in performance unacceptable; similar to the reason 32-bit apps have 32-bit plug-ins and 64-bit apps have 64-bit plug-ins. Acrobat is written in C/C++, hence so are plug-ins. If Acrobat was ever written in C# (unlikely while it is also on Mac), then no doubt all the plug-ins in existence would need to be rewritten in C#.
    Personally, having developed many and very large Acrobat plug-ins, I don't see that C# would be an advantage. Of course what is popular and what is marketed to developers is not always what is the most practical.

  • Adobe flash does not work on bootcamp windows 2002 xp. down loaded to windows. works with Mac. No program folder for such. shows up in "add delete programs" (in setting) but without a file size. I have a MacBook Pro purchased new in June 2010.

    Using bootcamp (windows 2002 xp) I down loaded adobe flash player from the windows platform. told me it installed successfully. however does not work in windows, does works in mac. in xp there is no created program folder for such or created short cut. In the control panel (xp) in add/delete programs it is listed but wihout any file size or frequency used. I've deleted & reinstalled numerous times. Mac OS is 10.6.8. Windows is 32 bit. Can't find a thing that discusses this. THANKS!

  • Adobe Reader XI-Not working on Windows 8

    Adobe Reader XI has suddenly stopped working on my Windows 8 laptop. It has worked previously and I'm not sure what has changed. I have the most up to date version of Adobe Reader. I have uninstalled it and reinstalled the program. I have also used the adobe cleaner but nothing seems to be helping. Please help! I have lots of information from classes that are in pdf files. Thank you!!

    Some things to try...
    Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    If you cannot open Reader by itself, try to disable Protected Mode in the registry; download, unzip, then run the attached registry script
    It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

  • Win7 - Adobe Reader X - highlighting works for me as an admin, but not for other users.

    What rights do I need to change to make this work for all users?

    I do not know why you experience this; what exactly happens when a non-admin users attempts to highlight something?
    You are talking about highlighting in the same document?

  • Adobe  Reader has not worked on my Safari for months. I have tried a new download 20  times! Works fine on my Google Chrome. Im running MacOS 10.9.3. Help! GOing nuts!!!!

    It has been months since I the adobe reader has been able to read a pdf link from Safari. I have to use Google CHrome if I want to read a pdf. I am running OS 10.9.3. My Mac is only 2 years old. I am going nuts trying to run the download... i have tried countless times and I still get adobvve reader bocked for this website on everything!

    Ah, Ok. I didn't know what was triggering the message. That is launching indeed. (I have to ask because many people a week don't know what it means).
    This message is the big problem, because it isn't even getting as far as the license agreement.
    I found a little discussion of this. It seems rare, especially on a Mac, but here is one person's advice. Worth a try:
    The error that you are facing might be due the reason that the user logged in doesn't have permissions to access the following directory: "~/Library/Application Support/Adobe". Can you please try the following steps with the user account in which you are facing the error:
    1. Remove the Adobe Reader from Applications directory by moving it to Trash.
    2. Now delete the following directory: "~/Library/Application Support/Adobe". Please note that this path is for the Library folder present inside the user directory that you are currently logged in.
    3. Restart the machine.
    4. Now re-install Adobe Reader XI.
    Tip: In Finder use GO TO FOLDER from the menu and type in "~/Library/Application Support/Adobe" (without the quotes but with the ~)

  • Adobe reader does not work, what is best for viewing pdfs?

    While using Safari, I keep encountering a message that in order to view a .pdf, I need to download Adobe Reader, accept the end user agreement, then relaunch.  I have tried to do this many times and keep getting the above message. What program is best for viewing pdfs using Safari on an iMac

    Back up all data.
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences 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. Otherwise do as follows.
    Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (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 (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others.
    If you still have the issue, repeat 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 again.

  • Help! Youcam, Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Adobe Reader all not working in U310

    Using a U310 ideapad with Windows 7 bought one year ago - warranty just expired of course!!
    5 days ago I tried to pull up and excel spreadsheet from an e-mail and got an error message that there was not enough memory to do so.
    Afterward, I tried to open word and it simply grayed out with a message box saying it was not working - it would try to fix the problem and then it just disappeared.  The same thing continues to happen.
    I tried to open a PDF with Adobe Reader and it, too, crashed.  I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, stopped it from coming up in protected mode and now it doesn't crash but I cannot edit any pdf with it and the tools box no longer works at all - a small circle spins in it for a couple of seconds, then fades to gray.
    My youcam will not turn on at all - when I click on the youcam icon, the cursor spins for a couple of seconds,then returns to an arrow and the youcam doesn't come on.
    So, after experiencing all these things, I figured I'd try the tried-and-true method of rebooting my laptop.  When the laptop restarted, before allowing me to enter my password, the error message "verifyhost.exe - application error unable to start correctly Oxc000007b" came up.  I x'd out of that, entered password, then 2 other errors came up "lenovoreg.exe" and SACpl.exe
    After working on this for hours, I'm really at a loss as to what it could be.  Does anyone have any idea?   It's unbelievable to me that this has happened on a new laptop that basically just sits on my desk - I don't travel with it and don't do much more than email and word processing on it!  I have no games and very little else even downloaded!  

    Download this, install, update and try to scan your hdd for malware.
