And what for? The only thing that would be good for is on a computer from like 15 years ago. Or do you actually mean Digital Editions?

Adobe Reader plug-in for Safari can't find Adobe Reader

I keep Adobe Reader.app in Applications/Local-A/PDF Software. When I try to open a PDF in Safari (5.0.3), the plug-in can't find the reader. I have to point it there each time I open Safari. I would have thought it would know where to look after the first time, but it doesn't. How do I permanently tell the plug-in where to look?

Hi,
Default install of Adobe Reader X package has Browser plug-in checked for install. Did you customize your installation and unchecked this option which indicates you dont want to install browser plug-in. Other possibility could be that you are using both Reader 9 and Reader X in your system and after Reader X install, you have updated Reader 9 assuming updating 9.4.0 to 9.4.1. This will change the plug-in version back to 9.4.1 (latest update).
One way to have version X is rerun Reader X installer and it will repair your plug-in to version 10.0.0. As an advise do not use both Reader 9 and Reader X in same system (though this is possible). You can simply delete version 9 application and continue working with Reader X installed.
Secondly to answer your question that Safari keeps on asking to choose Reader application, what you can do is open com.adobe.acrobat.pdfviewer.plist in /Library/Preferences in any plist viewer. It should have a key - WebBrowserUsePath. This should be pointing to correct reader application on your system. Normally its value is something like - file://localhost/Applications/Adobe%20Reader.app/
In your case you have moved Adobe Reader.app to /Applications/Local-A/PDF Software/Adobe Reader.app
So change the value of this key to point to correct application. Here it should be - file://localhost/Applications/Local-A/PDF%20Software/Adobe%20Reader.app/
This will ensure that Safari does not prompt you again.
Thanks,
Karan

Who can share some Adobe Reader plug-in development documentation besides SDK documentation?

Hi,
I want to develop a Adobe Reader plug-in to realize a function that I can delete/insert the pdf file's content when open a PDF file, but the SDK documentation is too indistinct to me, for example: which callback method I should to call? I read the AS_Layer of the SDK documentation, it seems that the PMSetTextProc should be invoke? How and where should I to invoke this callback method? The SDK documentation doesn't provide a sample.
Who can share me some more detailed Adobe Reader plug-in development documentation? or who can give me some advice how to read and use the SDK documentation?

thank you Test Screen Name, thanks for help me these days.
I want to realize a function, read a encrypted PDF file's content and then decrypt the content, and show the decrypted content in the PDF file when open a PDF file with Adobe Reader. so I need to call a callback method to capture the moment of open PDF file and display it.
I read the content of Acrobat Core API of SDK documentation, this documentation describe the Portable Document layer as follows:
PDFEdit methods deal with the physical representation of a PDF document. More specifically, PDFEdit methods handle page content as a list of objects whose values and attributes are modifiable. These methods allow your plug-in or PDF Library application to read, write, edit, and create page contents and page resources, which may contain fonts, images, and so on.
I look up PDFEdit_Layer in the SDK API, not found the callback method to response to open PDF file and display content, so I think that may be my idea is wrong.
Could you point out my mistakes?

Safari can't find Adobe Reader

When I go to load a pdf file in Safari a dialog window opens wanting me to direct it to Adobe Reader. This started to happen when I deleted Reader 7.0.5 and installed a fresh copy of Reader 7.0.7. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Theophilus,
Try this...Open Adobe Reader, go to Preferences...>Categories: Internet (Web Browser Options) "Display PDF in browser using:" Adobe Reader 7.0.7

Can't update Adobe Reader 10.01 (Mac Version)

I am running OS 10.6.7 on a MacPro (MacPro 4,1: 8 core - - 2mx 2.93 FHz Quad-Core Xeon). I installed Adobe Reader 10.01 uneventufully. However, many times when on the web Safari says it can't find Adobe Reader to read a document and I have to locate Adobe Reader manually. This didn't happen until after I updated to Acrobat 10.01. Thinking that this might be a bug, I looked for an update for Acrobat Reader. But when I attempt to update Adobe Reader to 10.03, it goes through the motions and then gives the follolwing error message:
"The update could not be applied because the Adobe Reader application contents were modified since the original installation."
"Please reinstall Adobe Reader and check for updates again."
"Error 1301"
I followed directions, reinstalled Adobe Reader and immediately afterwards attempted to install the update. Same error message.
I threw out the old version of Adobe Reader 10.01, downloaded it again, reinstalled it and then attempted the update, Same error message.
I've repaired permissions, used AppleJack to clean caches, used DiskWarrior to rebuild the directory. Same error message when attempting to update Adobe Reader.
Any suggestion?
Thanks.

REFRESH - I have this same problem. I would like to update this, since I understand there are various security fixes included with each update of Adobe Reader. Is this correct? If no one has an answer, then how can I trash the updater so I at least don't get this annoying message anymore??? It pops up EVERY STINKING DAY!!!

I've installed the Adobe Reader Plug In. Yet every time I click to see a PDF, it opens another browser and it is blank. The Browser reads about:blank. How can I fix this so that PDF's open in the browser?

Problem with Adobe Reader Plug-In (7, 8, and 9) on Windows XP

We are experiencing a problem with the Adobe Reader plug-in and viewing documents hosted at our site. The problem seems to happen with larger (over 5 MB) PDF files enabled for fast web viewing. The problem never happens when viewing PDF image only files which are not enabled for fast web viewing. The problem happens inside and outside our firewall, so it is not a firewall problem. My organization has been hosting PDF files to the web at least all this decade, and this is the first time we have experienced and documented this problem on this scale. We have ruled out the program creating the PDF file is causing the problem as I have eight sample PDF files created and modified by a variety of programs exhibiting the same issue.

I can reproduce the problem with Internet Explorer 8.0.6 and Firefox 3.5.4 using Adobe Acrobat Plug-In 7.0.9.50 running on Windows XP Professional SP3. Others have reproduced the problem with 8 and 9 versions of the plug-in on Windows XP Professional and Home. Oddly, no one has been able to reproduce the problem with Unix/Linux versions of the plug-in or third party plug-ins. This points to it being something wrong with Adobe Reader.
The problem is when I attempt to view one of the eight PDFs in my browser, I can severely stall or lock it up if I attempt to view more than the first page before the whole document downloads. Sometimes if you wait it out, the browser will unlock, but not display text on the pages. Sometimes if you wait for the whole document to load before switching pages, it works. Sometimes you can start switching pages and the document will not lock up at all. All eight documents can be viewed without issue if downloaded to the PC's hard drive and then viewed with Adobe Acrobat 7.0.
Can anyone point me to a technical document or reason why we would be experiencing this issue? Even better, does anyone know the solution to these issues?
Any help will be much appreciated.

I looked at a few documents. They appear to be scans and scans that have been OCRd. It is also likely they have not been optimized for page view. This means that the document has to be fully downloaded before viewed. That means the browser may appear to freeze until the entire document is downloaded. Downloading the entire document appears to be a reasonable way to handle these files.

I am experiencing difficulties opening some web-based PDF files on my iPad. I was having the same difficulty opening the same PDFs on my iMac (after I upgrade to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in settings.

I am experiencing difficulty opening some web-based PDF documents on my iPad. I had exactly the same difficulty on my iMac (after I upgraded to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in security settings in Safari (in OSX).
Unfortunately there does not seem to be a way to similarity adjust the security settings in Safari in iOS 8.
The message I get when I attempt to open the PDF (on my iPad) is as follows:
            "To view the full contents of this document you need a later version of PDF viewer. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from ..."
Needless to say this is unhelpful for two reasons:
- I have the very latest version of Adobe Reader; and
- in iOS Adobe Reader is not a plug-in and plays absolutely no role in opening web-based PDF documents.
If anyone has experienced this difficulty and has been able to overcome it I would be most appreciative to hear of you solution.
Cheers

Missing Adobe Reader Plug-In for Chrome

Chrome Version: 26.0.1410
Operating System: Mac OSX 10.6.8
Extensions: None
When trying to open a PDF inside of Chrome, I receive an error to disable the Chrome default PDF view and use Adobe Reader instead.
Using this website: http://support.google.com/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=142056, I disabled the Chrome PDF Viewer plug-in.
I then opened Adobe Reader and went to Preferences > Internet. There should be a check box for Web Browser Options. Instead, I see a web page link that instructs me to disable Adobe Reader plug-ins within Chrome.
But when I open the chrome://plugins, I do not have any for Adobe Reader.
How can I disable something that isn't there?

Look for a plugin that supports PDF; Reader is an application, not a file format, so it may not be listed that way in the plugin list. If not, you may just have to download the PDFs and open them in Reader manually but you can try asking for help in the Chrome forums:

I have a similar problem - just posted this today, 5th July 2014. I get a message that says windows cannot find c:\programme files(x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader\AcroRd 32.exe. Tried several uninstall/reinstalls with special programmes to check that uninstall was complete. Oddly, a download trial of the full programme Adobe Pro works OK ! If an expert out there can sort this it would be much appreciated.
