Cant install adobe reader

Every time I try to install Adobe Reader on my computer, I get a scripts error detected and it will not install the program.  I have Adobe Flash Player II ActiveX installed.  I have tried using IE and Firefox and Google Chrome as internet browsers and have the same outcome.
I have run my antimalware, super antispyware, and spybot programs, not to mention my norton security program which has not detected any problems.
Why am I not able to install Adobe Reader?

I don't know the "why", but I suspect that's not what you really want. Try downloading its full installer from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • Installing help, cant install Adobe Reader/Acrobat Error 2402

    Ive been using Adobe Reader for awhile now as many of you have however when i wasnt able to install the latest 1.104 update i wondered why.
    Kept getting Error message 2402 Out of Memory.
    So i tried deleting older versions of Reader as with much success was able to remove it from Control Panel with Microsoft FixIt, then with CCleaner program was able to remove from my Registery.
    After a fresh reboot i went back to Adobe.com i tried installing ReaderX on both the latest versions of Firefox (main web browser) and Internet Explorer both not being able to finish the install due to Error 2402. I also tried a free trial of AcrobatX, same outcome as expected. I enjoy being able to view PDF files for both home use and college and without Reader it makes that difficult.
    I also tried installing Version 9.5, same result
    Any help is more than appriecated, im not too techie but i will try to provide any additional info i can

  • Trouble in installing Adobe Reader 11

    I cant install Adobe Reader 11, it says: Error 1500.Another installation is in progress. You must complete that installation before continuing this one. I am using Windows 8 and i still have Adobe Reader 10 in my program. Please help!

    i cant install adobe master collection cs5 or cs6 in maverick 10.9.4, i cant install, the instalation stop in 4% in adobehelp ... any idea?

    I can't get into the installation menu. The third CD does work correctly, i'm not sure about the second CD. Is it possible that the CD is broken? Like maybe there is one file missing or something I don't know.

  • Cant open PDF files. Cant open Adobe Reader x

    Hi, I am running windows xp pro. I am having trouble opening PDF files and I cant open adobe reader x. I have uninstalled several times and reinstalled. I have stoped all antivirus services.

    Could you please elaborate a bit more as to what happens when you open a PDF. Do you get some sort of an error or dialog? If so, please post the contents of the same.
    Also, please let me know the version of Reader installed on your system. You can find the same by clicking on Help > About Adobe Reader from within the Reader application.

  • Is there a certain number of times I should install Adobe Reader on a mac before it works?

    Is there a certain number of times I should install Adobe Reader on a mac before it works?  Cant open any Adobe certified pdf's in any applications. Keeps telling me to install Reader for the best experience.
    I've tried that on three macs, no luck.  Website in general is a shambles.

    No, if it doesn't work the first time, doing it again isn't likely to change anything.
    The usual reason for this message is that the app is not using Reader, but the PDF needs Reader. What app is putting out the message? Can you reply (NOT BY EMAIL) with a screen shot of the message?

  • Can I install Adobe Reader to a drive other than the C: drive?

    Can I install Adobe Reader to a drive other than the C: drive?

    Hello there,
    Welcome to Adobe Community. Yes it can be installed on a different drive. Though some of the files installed by it will still be installed on C: drive.
    When you run the installer, use 'Change destination folder' at the bottom of the panel
    If you already have Adobe Reader installed on the C: drive, you must uninstall it before installing a new version on a different location.
    Thanks!

  • Error in Installing Adobe Reader

    I'm trying to install Adobe Reader and everytime, it gets to 96% and an error message pops up telling me that it can't finish installation until I close Adobe Reader- however there is nothing open except for the installation window and the error message.

    Make sure that anything that uses Adobe Reader is closed; check with the Task Manager's Processes tab.
    If you're still having problems, uninstall your current Reader installation, then reinstall the latest Reader.
    Download the installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

    I am trying to download Adobe Reader, I have Windows 7 on my PC. Every time I get the download, I click on it to install the program, and I get the usual messages but I never get the install message. When I try the download again, I get a message telling me only one copy of the program can go on the computer. When I check the program list, it is not there. I have to restore my computer before I can attempt the download and install again. I have tried this at least 6 times but cannot install Adobe Reader. Please help me out with this. I really like this product and prefer to use it. I had o originally delete the program, due to an update conflict.

  • I'm trying to open files which are telling me to instal Adobe Reader.  Which I did but the agreement which needs to be ticked off so this reader can open doesn't come up.  Please could you be of some assistance.

    I'm trying to open files which are telling me to instal Adobe Reader.  Which I did but the agreement which needs to be ticked off so this reader can open doesn't come up.  Please could you be of some assistance.

    Select one of the files, Choose GetInfo from the Finder's File menu, look for the field named "Open With", and choose Preview from the adjacent menu. Accept that ALL such files will Open with Preview, and your major problems should be solved.
    Occasionally, a particularly complex .pdf file or one that needs to be modified and re-written will not work quite right with Preview, but such issues are rare.

    Mac's Safari browser supports PDF documents
    Adobe Reader is not good at security issues, if you can, avoid using/downloading it.
    PDF
    Safari also includes built-in support for viewing PDF files. When you follow a link to a PDF in Safari, such as a user guide, it's displayed in the Safari window without having to open another app. Safari's built-in find and zoom features work with PDFs too.
