Can't avoid end user license, using acrobat.jar

Hi everybody!
I want to display a pdf from my Swing application, so I've decided to use Adobe Acrobat Viewer (acrobat.jar). But, when I run SampleReader example, first it appears the Adobe Acrobat Viewer's End User License Agreement, before the viewer itself.
What can I do to avoid the license agreement? Can I get any license anywhere? Help me please!
Thanks!!

I think Adobe have made their software behave this way on purpose, because they want it to be that way. I don't think this has anything to do with Swing.
Also you don't need to "get any license anywhere". The whole point of an EULA splash screen is that when you click "I Accept" or whatever, that is when you get the license.
Cheers,
Matt.

Can't accept End User License Agreement

I am being prompted to accept the End User License Agreement for Adobe Reader but I don't know how to accept it. I've uninstalled and installed Reader, that didn't fix it. I'm using Chrome on my iMac Yosemite.

I have the same issue but found an answer here: Re: Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User Li
It appears to do with browsers switching to 64 bit, but Reader still 32.

Acrobat Pro XI problem+Accept End User License Agreement when opening a PDF inside IE

Hi folks, this issue has been challenging.
Acrobat Pro CC install
W7 X64
Deployment went ok after the code was worked out, but.....
We use Desire to Learn content management system at the community college where I maintain the student computers at. When running D2L and a PDF has been embedded in some course material, I am getting the message below and the PDF won't open.
“Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User License Agreement" .
The only fix so far is to run up Acrobat Pro and run the program once. Fine and dandy, but we are looking at 700+ machines to clear in this fashion. The other part of this scenario we we also utilize Respondus Lockdown Browser to invigilate exams through D2L. Because of the "lock down" features, the student can't even get back to the desktop to run Acrobat and clear the message.
I have tried a number of GPO entries to no avail. As well, disabled the IE PDF viewer add-on. I ran Procmon with no results either; .
I have been scouring the Googlemachine and building on the GPO below to get around the issue with no results. I am hoping someone with a sharper eye than I can spot something or point me in the correct direction..
Thanks eh.

Hi technobyte,
Try using APTEE to do EULA suppression and check.

I get a message saying: "Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User License Agreement". HELP!!

Hi i have an iMac with 10.9.3 and when i tried to open a PDF link or a PDF document in Safari 7.0.4 this message appears: "Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User License Agreement". What can i do to solve this?

Back up all data before making any changes.
Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
Step 2
There should be a setting in the preferences of the Adobe application 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.
Step 3
If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
and check the box marked
Allow Plug-ins
Then click
Manage Website Settings...
and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
Step 4
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination 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 by pressing command-V, then press return.
From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
Step 5
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
Step 6
Do as in Step 4 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.

How do I access the End User Licensing Agreement? I clicked on it and it gives me a message that I need to launch Adobe Reader, accept and close and reopen. Trouble is I can't get to an icon for file to launch. I am working on a Mac and have installed Mac

I am using a Mac and have installed Adobe Reader for Mac, latest version. I cannot access the End User Licensing Agreement. I clicked on it and it gives me a message that I must launch Adobe, check that I agree, close and reopen. The problem is I can't find any way to launch Adobe because it appears nowhere on my launch pad, nor in my document files or on the control panel. Because of this, I cannot print bank statements nor can I get into my insurance companies billing department to make a payment. HELP!

How about in your Applications folder?

Trying to open PDFs and it says it won't open until I accept End User License Agreement but i can't find that anywhere.

Everytime i try opening a pdf this message comes up "Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser" I have no idea where to find this agreement to accept it.

If you are in Windows (which we don't know), you can try using Windows Explorer to navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement. In Mac, with Reader closed, go to your Applications folder, double click on the Reader icon, and follow the lead.

I have a apple computer,I downloaded adobe reader and acrobat, but now it ask for a end user license

Did you do that: launch the standalone Reader (not the browser plugin) and accept the EULA?

Getting error: Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser.. I just purchased the Adobe Acrobat Pro today on may MAC.

Hi Tbeirne,
If you just want to save a pdf opened in Safari to your machine use the save as option from within the Reader plugin window. Just click on any of the buttons highlighted in below screenshots to Save a pdf at any location on your machine.
or
To summarize the issue, if you had opened an Internet PDF in a browser plug-in, you must use the save feature in the plug-in, not the Safari File > PDF Export, or File > Save As...
Please let us know if this solution works for you and you are able to save and view PDFs files locally.

Shashi

Why can't I open PDF files on my iMac. I installed Adobe Reader and accepted the end user license, as instructed then quit the application and relaunched it and I still can't view the PDF document. The screen comes out black. Please advice. Thanks

Why can I view PDF files from the Web on my iMac even after I installed Adobe Reader and accepted the end user license agreement.I then quit the application relaunched it, as instructed snd still the PDF document comes out blank or black. Please advice. Thanks

Are you saying that Adobe Reader or Preview can't read PDF file that you download? Or, are you saying that you can't display PDF files in your Safari broweer? If the latter, then delete any AdobePDFViewer plugins you find in /Library/Internet Plug-ins/ and restart. That should allow Safari to display PDFs in its window. BTW, that's the worst place to view them. Better to download them and use Adobe Reader or Preview.

Acrobat Reaader will not work before I accept End User License Agreement. But where and how?

Acrobat Reaader will not work before I accept End User License Agreement. But where and how?
Have installed version 9.5 on my Windows 7 desk-top computer.

I don't know what you mean by "where and how"; Adobe Reader will automatically present the license agreement to accept the first time you use it.

Where can I find the end users license agreement?

Hi!
Every time I try to open a document online the windows pops up with the notice that I need to agree to the end user license agreement in order for me to be able to view pdf. How can i do it?

Have you actually opened Adobe Reader (as instructed) to see if it offers the ability to accept the agreement?
If so and it didn't work, what version of Reader, OS and web browser are you using?

From acrobat 11.0.07 before proceeding you must first launch adobe acrobat and accept the end user license agreement

Whenever I try to click on a link to open a pdf file, I receive the following message "before proceeding you must first launch adobe acrobat and accept the end user license agreement"
However, my adobe acrobat is working well and I just recently uploaded it. Any ideas?

Hi stephendubai,
What browser are you using? Please see the last post in this thread to see if the linked document resolves your issue as well: Re: Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept EULA
Best,

Keep getting a message that I have to accept the End User License Agreement. How can I solve this ?

Keep getting a message that I have to accept the End User License Agreement.
Where can I find this License ?

The full EULA is available at http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/reader/index.html
Are you accepting the dialog? If you can't, or the buttons don't do anything, see here:

Initializing arises with the following information: to proceed, open your download folder and locate the Adobe reader installer file, named Adobe reader installer [ XXX].dmg
It takes me back to steps that have already taken of locating down load file double-click to mount the disk image; double-click install Adobe reader; agreed by clicking open; entering name and password and clicking okay.
Did this several times with no success.
