Cannot Download Reader 9 - IE 7 Shuts Down

Running Vista (ugh). Everytime I try and download Reader 9 - IE7 shuts down - no message other than IE is closing down. Tried downloading from cnet and the official adobe site. Tried turning off firewall, antivirus, etc. No difference. Don't have any problems downloading any other software from different sites. Is there any place to download an earlier version of adobe reader that will work? Thanks...Michelle

A simple file download should not shut down your browser; if it does, I would suspect some malware infection. Sorry, this forum is not the right place to give you advice on how to handle this.
Try downloading the installer from http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.0/enu/AdbeRdr90_en_US.exe

I think I finished installing Mountain Lion, and am at the "log in" page with my name and the Lion icon, but I cannot do any of the functions on screen. That is, I cannot log in, sleep, restart, or shut down. I am running it on an Early 2009 Macbook Pro

As the last post suggests, call Apple and order a replacement original disc for about $17. They will ask you the model and serial numbers.
Your retail version of Snow Leopard OS 10.6.3 will not work on that Mac as it requires a minimum of OS X 10.6.7 to boot and operate.
Another alternative is to again borrow another Mac to install your retail Snow Leopard into an external HD or partition, upgrade it to 10.6.8 and then clone it back to a partition on your MBP.

Firmware update was done on my MacBook Air while connected to power source and now I cannot start up. It keeps shutting down. Any ideas??

HT1725 I was downloading some songs and iTunes shut down.

I was downloading some songs and iTunes shut down. It says I've purchased a song but it isn't in my purchased playlist, but it charged me for it. How do I get the song, or get my money back?

You've tried the Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option on your computer's iTunes, and does it show under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes ?
If not then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

Cannot view desktop contents and finder shuts down

Iam using macbook pro mid 2012 with OS mavericks. Everything was running completely okay until yesterday but when i switched on today the finder kept shutting down after 15 seconds..i cannot view my documents or pictures on the desktop..the applications icon disappear from the dock when i open it and cannot see anything in my downloads folder either..i didnt not downnload any app recently and cant seem to figure out the problem.i tried attaching a screenshot but the browser crashed..i saw some posts where they were relating this problem with google drive but i dont use it..any help would really be appreciated because i have a presentation coming up next week and really need to get done with this problem

You can work around this issue by choosing Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu and then entering a / followed by the name of the folder you want to access.
If you need to access the top level of the hard disk from the other accounts or want to fix the issue, try logging in with the original account. Open the Script Editor in the /Applications/AppleScript folder and run the following script:
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder.AppleShowAllFiles '1'"
tell application "Finder"
quit
end tell
delay 3
tell application "Finder"
run
end tell
After the Finder restarts, open your hard disk's icon and locate the file named .DS_Store. Rename this file and try logging in with one of the other accounts. To hide the additional files and folders revealed, replace the 1 in the first line of the script with a 0 and rerun the script.

Is it possible to continue downloading OS X Lion after shutting down the computer?

I am downloading the OS X Lion app on my MacBook Pro and is only at 180mb after an hour. I am downloading this app for free because I recently purchased a MacBook Pro. Is there a way I can continue the download even after shutting down the computer? Will I be charged the next time I try to re-download the app--as in, will the code for downloading the app for free expire?
Thank you SO much!

I downloaded OS X Lion over the period of a day or so and what you have to do is pause the download (for a snow leopard user that should be in your dock) and then shut down your machine. When you boot it back up, you should be able to resume the download by clicking the OS X Lion logo and typing in your Apple ID info and the download should resume at the same spot where it was when you left it.

Adobe Reader does not fully shut down

After closing all PDF documets, Adobe Reader remains open. The Processes Tab in Windows Task Manager typically lists multiple instances of AcroRd32.exe after I close all PDF files. If I open a new PDF file, the PRocesses tab shows two instances of AcroRd32.exe. What causes this? What is the fix for this?
Windows Vista Home Premium (32), SP2, Adobe Reader 10.1.4 (latest download availabe from the adobe web site.
Thanks

Hi Pat,
Thank you for the information and the patches.
I installed them, one at a time, rebooted, and tested the outcomes.
10.1.5 – Adobe had run Adobe Distiller when I rebooted and checked Task Manager. This is the first I have seen Distiller listed in a long time. I opened an Adobe file. This added two instances of AcroRd32.exe to Task Manager. I closed the Adobe file. The two instances remained in Task Manager. I opened another PDF file without clearing the instances from Task Manager. This added two more instances of AcroRd32.exe to Task Manager.
With only 10.1.15 installed and after doing some other things, I retested Adobe Reader. This time, when I closed the PDF either by the X in the upper right hand corner of the file or by File / Exit from the menu, Adobe Reader shut down completely and did not leave any instances of AcroRd32.exe in Task Manager.
10.1.16 – Could not find this patch file. Instead received this message in Firefox:
The requested URL /pub/adobe/reader/win/10.x/10.1.6/misc/AdbeRdrUpd1016.msp was not found on this server.
Received a similar message in Internet Explorer
10.1.17 – Downloaded, installed, and rebooted PC. Did not see an instance of Acrobat Distiller in Task Manager after the reboot.
Opened a PDF file – two instances in AcroRd32.exe in Task Manager. Without closing the first PDF file, opened another PDF. Momentarily saw two more instances of AcroRd.exe in Task Manager. Then they disappeared. Closed one PDF file using the X. Two instances remained. Closed the second file. Adobe Reader shut down completely and cleared both instances from Task Manager.
Not sure what had been going on. For now, things seem to operate about as they should.
Thank you, again, Pat. This will help keep my PC from hanging up after I view several PDF files. At times I have had 16 or 18 instances of the executable listed in Task Manager. That really slows down the PC.
Kind regards,
Jon Bergeson

Adobe Reader 10.1.2 shuts down when printing/saving files

Every time I try to print or save a pdf file, I get a message that "Adobe Reader has stopped working" and the program shuts down. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing numerous times, but that has not helped at all. Any suggestions?

Dear blaukhuff77,
Please follow the thread available at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/949886?tstart=30
Do let us know if that resolves the problem.

Cannot download Reader: "Adobe wants to make changes?

I cannot download/install Reader on my iMac. Response is "Adobe wants to make changes." Asks for a password which I do not have or cannot remember. What should I do.?
Don K.

If you don’t remember your administrator password, you can reset it using the Mac OS X installation disc.
Important:Because a user with the Mac OS X installation disc can gain unrestricted access to your computer, you should keep the disc in a safe place.
To reset the administrator password using the Mac OS X installation disc:
Insert the Mac OS X installation disc into your computer’s optical drive (or an optical drive connected to your computer), and then double-click the Install Mac OS X icon.
Note: If you’re using another computer’s optical drive, make sure your computer is set up for remote installation, and then go to step 3. For more information about remote installation, see:
Using Remote Install Mac OS X
In the Installer, click Utilities, and then click Restart.
When the Language Chooser appears, select your language, and then click the Continue button (looks like an arrow).
In the Installer, choose Utilities > Reset Password.
Follow the onscreen instructions to change the password.
Be sure to change the password for your login keychain to match your new account password so your keychain is unlocked when you log in.

Cannot open jpgs Preview will not shut down, color spinning wheel present

Trying to open jpgs and all I get is the spinning color
wheel. The files will not open.
Preview will not shut down even with apple prompt
of instructions on how to do so.
First aid in the OS10 utilities has seemed to disappear, but its still there for OS9.
I've been opening hundreds and hundreds of jpgs the last few weeks, printing and dumping duplicate images, etc...
And now I get this.
Ideas on how to clear this problem up? And ideas as to what the problem is?
thx - Craig

It sounds like it might be a good idea to run the disk utilities (applications/utilities/disk utility) and run the repair disk permissions. I have found that this often solves these oddball problems.
Try completely restarting everything. Run preview before clicking on anything and try opening one of these items from the file menu. does it make a difference? If so, do "get info" on a jpeg image and see if preview is the default viewer for it. If not, that may be your problem. If you have another preferred application you may want to set all your jpegs to open in that application until you get preview straightened out. Best of luck!

Lion Mail hangs, cannot be started after first MacBook shut down...

After installing Lion, Mail worked fine... Once, I shut down the computer, I have not been able to restart Mail in multiple attempts. Time and again, Mail is not responding and hangs consistently (see report below)... A Mail patch by Apple Computer is urgently needed!

By the way, the first step that I refer to should not be double click but right click:
1. Right click the Finder Folder in the Dock (and a popup menu will appear)
Hope this works for you as it did for me!
Recommended not by me but successfully used by me, here are the steps again...
1. Right click on Finder icon in the Dock
2. Choose "Go to Folder" in the popup menu
3. Type in ~Library
4. Open the Mail folder(s) until you find the V2 folder
5. As opposed to what was recommended, I deleted all files and folders inside the V2 folder
(After all, gmail and iMobile have my mail history and details on file anyway)
6. Restarted MacBook to be sure
7. Started Mail and added my iMobile and gmail accounts... From there the normal world presented itself!
Please, note below a more simpler solution suggested elsehwere (that I did not test myself)...
1. Open Applications in a Finder window and scroll to Mail
2. Right click on Mail then go to "Get Info" in the popup window
3. Unlock the lock at the bottom of the window by clicking on it (it will ask you for your password)
4. Go to "Access" and change it from "custom" to "read and write"
5. Restart Mail and it should work

Safari not responding. Cannot force quit. Prevents system Shut-down.

From the console I am receinving this message:
12-03-15 12:38:42 PM [0x0-0x36036].com.apple.Safari[332] 2012-03-15 12:38:42.511 PluginProcess[335:903] Incompatible applications: app=com.apple.WebKit.PluginProcess, targetApp=com.apple.Safari

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Note: If you’ve activated FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) Post the results of steps 1 and 2.
