I cannot install adobe reader into my mac this is the message it tells me to open license agreement and press ok.. and close it then reopen.. i've done this dozen times already

i cannot install adobe reader into my mac.. i get the message to open license agreement and select yes and click it closed

The free Rader does not require a license. Could it be that Mac OS is asking you for the password of your Mac? Or that you are required to launch Reader (open your Applications folder and doble click on the Reader icon) to accept the licence agreement? Please be as specific as you can.

Cannot open adobe reader at all

I cannot open Adobe reader, even the icon on my desktop I mean. I have windows 7 and I could not open PDF file on web either. It will have a full blue bar telling me it is fully downloaded but the actual content never shows up. I tried uninstall and install for more than five times. Anyone could help?

Sorry, it is not quite clear to me if you have Adobe Reader actually installed or not.
I suggest that you uninstall it (again), then try installing with the full installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

Cannot open adobe reader files.....because it was not a supported type file.......

Cannot open adobe reader file............could not open because it was not a supported type file...........or damaged by email.... What support does it need????

Impossible to say. All we can know is that it is NOT a valid PDF file.
You could take a look. Try this.
1. Open the file in Microsoft Word (or NotePad).
2. If the file is good, use it - it was a Word (or text) file.
3. Otherwise, look at the first few lines. These will probably be gobbledegook.
4. Copy and paste the first few lines into your reply, perhaps someone will recognise what the file really is.

Cannot open adobe reader application

Hi,
I cannot open adobe reader X application, it returns error message "0x8d286a30, cannot 'written'". I tried to uninstall and reinstall the reader but it doesn't work. please help, thanks.

I don't know the answer to your problem, but possibly someone else can, if you give more information:
- what is your OS & version?
- what is your installed Reader version?

Cannot Open Adobe Reader X/XI

Currently experiencing issues with Adobe Reader X/XI. Organization wide problem. Adobe Reader X/XI is not starting/opening at all.
Information:
Adobe Reader X/XI 64-Bit with update 11.0.0.5
Windows 7
Event Viewer doesn't show any application error logs or anything related to the problem from what I can see.
Any idea what can be causing this?

Some other 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

Cannot open Adobe Reader XI or any PDF file

When I try to open Adobe Reader XI or any PDF file, it says that it "cannot open in Protected Mode due to an incompatibility with your system configuration. Would you like to open Adobe Reader with Protected Mode disabled?" When I choose open with Protected Mode disabled, it then displays "Acrobat failed to load its Core DLL.” Please help. Thank you. All PDF’s and adobe reader use to work on my computer. Thank you. When I try troubleshooting the problem, “incompatible application” is listed under the troubleshooting report.

Cannot open adobe reader x online

When I try to open a workbook pdf file on my store builder online, either a blank screen comes up, a download strip which goes nowhere, or a box which says there is a problem with your adobe acrobat/reader. If it is open, close it and try again. Well nothing is open that I know of. It use to work fine and now, nothing. I went to the control panel and went to add and remove files and tried the repair button. But the new download isn't doing anything either. Help!

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

I cannot open Adobe Reader XI or any PDF files.

When I tried to open the Reader's program, it just opened a gray page and then closed by itself. I am on Windows 7 and already ran TDSSKiller to check for rootkit infection. It said, "no threats found." I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Reader program, but it didn't work still. I used to be able to run Reader's earlier version. What do I do now? Thanks!

I CANNOT DOWNLOAD ADOBE READER FOR MY MAC (ID AND PASSWORD DOES NOT WORK)

I CANNOT DOWNLOAD ADOBE READER FOR MY MAX (ID AND PASSWORD DOES NOT WORK

This seems to cause a certain amount of confusion. Your Adobe ID is not used to download or install Adobe Reader.
But when you install any software you are likely to need your own computer's administrator password. This password was chosen by you (or someone) the first time the computer was switched on, and is used to protect the system against bad things.

I cannot open Adobe Reader even though I have downloaded it 4 times, What's Wrong?

I have downloaded Adobe Reader 4 times, but cannot open it. What's Wrong

You mean you get a message telling to LAUNCH Adobe Reader and accept the licensing agreement? In that case you need to launch Adobe Reader, as it says, not download it again!
As with all apps on the Mac, you launch it by finding the app in the Applications folder, which you will find at the left side of any Finder window.

Cannot Open Adobe Reader 9

I have spent the better part of three days trying to follow the threads to fix my problem. Most of the suggestions invlove opening Reader 9 and do this and that. I am using Windows Vista ( which I detest) and I cannot even open Reader 9. I get a window that says "Windows has detected an internal error." No further instructions, no error number, no nothing.
I have also gone to the Adobe Support site for Reader. Even tho I registered my application, I did not locate my PW. ID is my e-mail but when I go to the "forgot PW" page, and enter my ID, which it says is Step One, the page just keeps saying ID and PW do not match, which is WHY I am at THAT page to begin witrh. This is very frustrating. I am at that proverbial "Catch 22" situation and am pulling my hair out.
I cannot open any e-mail attachment that is sent in Adobe ( which 95% of them are), cannot begin to fix the problem because I cannot open Reader 9 and cannot contact tech support because they do not allow me to retrieve my PW. Help!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Denise,
I am having the same exact problem as you are having. I am also using Windows Vista and am having problems with Adobe Reader 9.1 The download doesn't seem to fully complete. I also am an administrator and logged in as such on this computer. I had another user account that I created for others that might use this computer. I logged into that user account yesterday and I received notifications that updates were available for Adobe, Internet Explorer, and Firefox. I installed all the updates and got the problem with Adobe Reader. Could the problem have been created by me installing the update for Adobe Reader through the user account? Adobe Reader worked on the user account but then I logged off and logged into my main account (administrator account) and there was a problem with Adobe. I tried to uninstall Adobe Reader (through the control panel) and was unsuccessful (I figured I can uninstall it and then reinstall). I then just deleted the user account and arrived to where I am right now.
I click on Adobe Reader's shortcut on my desktop and get a popup stating:
"An internal error occurred."
Then I close the popup and get the famous green bar from hell that is associated with Vista stating:
"Adobe Reader 9.1 has stopped working A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." blah blah blah
I then click to close that window....windows returns a solution...to go to Adobe Incorporated....etc. and sends me to download Adobe Reader 9.1....I proceed to download
First I get a popup window during the installation process stating:
"Welcome to Setup for Adobe Reader 9.1 Adobe Reader 9.1 Setup is preparing to guide you through the program setup process. Please wait. Computing space requirements."
Then the process gets interrupted with this popup:
"Setup Completed Setup was interrupted before Adobe Reader 9.1 could be completely installed. Your system has not been modified. To complete installation at another time, please run setup again. Click Finish to exit setup."
Along with the previous window I also get an error message stating the following:
"Adobe Reader 9.1 Installer Information Error 1606. Could not access network location %APPDATA%\."
There is an Adobe Reader 9 Installer file on my desktop which includes the setup files. I open the setup file to complete the installation process and I get the same error messages.
I believe this problem has to do with the registry.
This is very frustrating. CAN ANYONE WITH INFORMATION HELP PLEAAAAAASSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

Cannot open adobe reader from website

PDF in website will not open. Suggested solutions from website and Adobe have not corrected issue.

Accepting the EULA is not done during the installation, but when Adobe Reader is launched for the first time. That's what you need to do (not the browser plugin, but the actual Reader program).
