Cannot load PDF in IE when Adobe Reader 9.3 is installed

Hi,
I have been having a problem for the past couple months whereby when I have Adobe Reader 9.3 installed on my machine and try to open PDFs within IE, I receive an error message (after some time of waiting) saying "There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and try again". I did not have this problem with version 8.2 (and as a result I had to resort back to this version). However, I would like to have the latest version of Adobe Reader installed and have it working!
After doing some diagnostics, I discovered that the problem seemed to only occur when I had Google Toolbar installed. If I uninstalled it completely (not just disabled it) the PDFs would display fine.
Is there anything I can try to make the three of these compatible (Adobe Reader 9.3, Internet Explorer and Google Toolbar)?
Thanks,
Chris

You can not save a form and data in Reader unless it has been activated with Reader Rights. That is an extra step. You do not need to save the form to submit the data. In Designer, the data is submitted in XML format. In Acrobat forms, the data would be submitted in FDF, XML, XFDF, or HTML format. XML and FDF can be imported to the form so you can see what the user saw when the form was submitted. If you activate Reader Rights, you may likely run into limits set in the license agreement. Read the EULA, section 15, before you go to far and find out you might be violating the license.
I assume your submission is by e-mail the way it sounds. Be aware that has many problems and is not a reliable method for form submission. If you are doing forms for a business, you would likely not want to activate the Reader Rights and would want to submit the data to a web script to avoid the e-mail issues -- otherwise you might tick off customers and run them off.

    Why the question marks? Can you open PDF files or not? You don't need Firefox to open PDF files.

  • What happens when Adobe Reader 9 is already installed

    I am wondering what happens when you try and install Adobe Reader 9 when it is already installed.
    For example I have Adobe Reader 9 installed and when I try and install it again I get to the part in the setup that says:
    "Please wait while the Adobe Reader 9 is being proessed"
    Once the percentage bar goes up to something like 99.90% the window just closes. I don't get any message saying it is already installed which I thought was rather odd.
    Is this really what happens when you already have Adobe Reader 9 installed?
    Thanks
    Edit: I running Windows XP SP2

    In Firefox and Chrome you need to replace their PDF viewer with the Adobe Reader plugin.

  • Cannot open .pdfs via Outlook or Adobe Reader, can't open Adobe Reader, can't uninstall it!

    We have a new office desktop that will not open .pdfs or open Adobe Reader.  The version on the computer is 9.5.2.  When I try to install updates or install Adobe XI, the installation process stops before completion because it says Adobe 9.5 is currently being open.  But we can't open Adobe 9.5, and task manager does not even show the program as being open. 
    I have tried uninstalling the program, but have been unable for the same reason.

    You can try using this tool to remove all traces of previous version(s) of Reader:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you may download the offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • I cannot view PDF file (though have Adobe Reader 9 on my computer)

    Why do I get the message "the application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect.  Reinstalling application may fix this problem" whenever I try to open a PDF file (both from Email and from Harddrive). I have Adobe Reader 9.  Does anyone have any clues?  Thanks.

    Uninstall, use the Microsoft Installer Cleanup tool to remove anything left in the Registry, then re-install.

  • Cannot open pdf files or uninstall adobe reader

    I downloaded Reader X but could not open any pdf files so tried to reinstal.  I got the message that it was already installed so tried to uninstall but could not do it. The message was to say that it was using certain files and to close explorer.  Dont know how I do that if I am using it to contact adbobe!!!!  I now have a program which does not work and I really need to be able to get these pdf's downloaded now.  Does anybody know how to get rid of the adobe from the system.

    The easiest would be if you close all applications, especially web browsers, then try to uninstall again.
    If that still fails, use the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility (http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459) to remove the current Reader installation, then try again to install.

  • When I download a .pdf file using mozilla, I cannot open that file despite having adobe reader on my desktop. I cannot save the file to open at a later time

    I wished to view a .pdf file of a vehicle brochure. Mozilla found the brochure ok, but would not let me view it or save it. I ended up having to use IE to download and then view the file. How do I enable Mozilla to allow me to view .pdf files< I have Adobe Reader 9 installed on my PC (using Dell and Window 7)

    Hi, I was working on a PDF writing comments using Adobe Reader on a Mac.  I clicked save and got a 'cannot save' message.  I then clicked save as instead, Reader froze and my PDF disappeared.  The only version saved has only my first comment.  Does Adobe Reader save to temporary files that I can access in order to recover my work?  Is there any other way to recover it?  Thanks!

    Hi @Pat Willener,
    since I got the same problem as pdfprincess I hope you can help me. The 'Automatically save document changes to temporary file...' is enabled in my adobe reader.
    A file I worked (commented) on a lot crashed. When I reopened the file, adobe reader didn't ask if I want to restore my changes in this file, as it is written on the help.adobe.com page. Is there any possibility to restore the changes manually from the temporary file?
    Thanks in advance - it is really important for me to restore these changes!!

  • I adobe acrobat 7.0 professional. When I open or save a PDF it reverts to Adobe Reader XI. How can I change that to the pro as it has far more editing options.

    You may want to keep Reader. You may want to select Acrobat as your default, but be able to click on a PDF (or PDF link) to open in Reader when needed. There are likely some PDFs that will not open correctly in AA 7 because of new features folks add. Just because it opens in Reader XI does not mean it is in the new format, but just that is the default opening you have. To tell the type of file, you have to open the PDF and check the properties (ctrl-D) and check Description>PDF version.

  • Specific PDF not opening in Adobe Reader on Lumia ...

    I get an error message on a Lumia 625 when trying to open a downloaded pdf (88Mb) in Adobe Reader Vers 10.4.3.
    I have more than 3Gb free space. The file seems to be successfully downloaded & joins the list of all PDF documents in the Adobe Reader app. All other PDFs DO open OK. Just not this one.
    The message reads “The document path is not valid” & phone screen shows “Loading...” but fails to actually open anything
    What does this mean & how do I fix it? Thankyou in advance...

    Thankyou. The Central Question over this Lumia 625 inability to open a specific pdf (by Lonely Planet) remains:-I could uninstall this Adobe Reader app but think this is not the problem as this app does indeed open all other pdf's on my phone successfully, e.g. the Lonely Planet Invoice!
    On the other hand, this particular downloaded & installed pdf can be read on my home PC, my Macbook & my IpodTouch so I can't attribute fault to the filename.
    The basic Troubleshoot step of a "soft reset"  is NOT described in the Lumia 625 User Guide & I'm pessimistic this arbitrary step will bear fruit. I have come to the conclusion that no matter what I do, this Lumia model using the MIcrosoft OS has a system flaw that is unable to read the file (a file that other devices & another OS can read) & I will not waste time with ad hoc actions such as resets as this is not a hobby for me.
    The pdf in question (88Mb, Lumia free space is >3Gb)  is a travel guide I'd like to use on my next trip & this Lumia 625 is proving not worthy of coming with me. I am disappointed at the lack of "Customer Support" shown by the Nokia Company & I hope this is relayed as some "friendly feedback". Thank you for your own assistance, though.
    I invite correction if this assessment is mistaken.

  • How do I open a link in a pdf in iOS App Adobe Reader 11.6.4?

    When I open a pdf in iOS App Adobe Reader 11.6.4 I cannot click on a link, the link is underlined but I have no possibility to choose that link. On a PC this link in the same PDF is functioning correctly.

    Michael,
    Your form is a special type of form called a "static XFA form" (typically authored with Adobe LiveCycle Designer).
    The "links" in the static XFA form are actually buttons (form fields) that act like hyperlinks.
    Unfortunately, Adobe Reader mobile products (including Adobe Reader for iOS, Android, Windows Phone) do not support static (or dynamic) XFA forms.  Sorry for the inconvenience.
    The static XFA buttons for web links did not work with any of the non-Adobe PDF viewers that I tried on my iPad, either.  So the users who receive the static XFA form will experience the same problem on mobile devices.

  • How do I save/download a PDF file  as an actual PDF that opens in Adobe Reader?

    When I save/download a PDF from Google Chrome it always saves as an Internet Explorer file instead of a PDF that opens in Adobe Reader.
    Why is this?
    And how can I fix it?
    I really need PDF files for school and work.

    What means "an Internet Explorer file"; what is the file type / extension?
    Also, how do you "save/download" these files?

  • PDF quality issues on Adobe Reader for Pocket PC 2.0

    The quality of PDF's rendered by Adobe Reader 2.0 PPC is awful when compared to Adobe Reader LE. We are running it on HTC X7500's with a nice 5" display, but you have to zoom in +5x to read the text on our parts manuals, where as LE renders the same manual crisply and sharply and you don't have to zoom in at all to read the text. Unfortunately we use a lot of hyperlinks, forms and annotations in our documents which are only available with AR2.0PPC and not LE or indeed any of the other 3rd party readers (FoxitReader, PocketXPDF or Clearvue).
    I'm assuming that this is down to anti-aliasing methods used, and that AR2.0PPC has not been updated for four years!
    Are we likely to see a version of Adobe Reader for Pocket PC with the quality of LE? or have Adobe given up on developing this platform?

    >>> Our techs have been using the HTC Blueangel (Same as the I-Mate pictured on your site), and although the image rendered by Adobe Reader was quite sharp, the size of the screen meant you were continually zooming in and out of pages to find the appropriate parts. So weve chosen the HTC X7500 as a replacement because of its 5 screen (amongst other reasons). <<
    Ho Kay... have looked at the file and, based on the general layout (drawings with part# references) don't think you can get there from here.
    Back to the basic goal, a couple of thoughts based on the assumption that your company is generating these pdf's and needs pda access to them.
    Perhaps the part# references can be hyperlinked so the tech could tap the part# on the image and go to a table entry with all of the info on that specific part.
    In that case, html would be a better format for navigation since, afaik, there does not seem to be a <back> button in reader.
