Compatibility of Adobe Reader XI with Windows 8, 64 bit version appears to be a problem. Ideas?

Whenever, I load Adobe XI (which seems to be the only version compatible with Windows 8, I get a "No default mail client" error. has anyone found a solution? Is Adobe working on a fix?
(I use a Dell Lattitude E6530 notebook with Windows 8 and Microsoft Office 2013 64 bit version installed).
Your replies appreciated.

You can get previous versions of reader from: http://get.adobe.com/reader/otherversions/
Regarding your problem, you need to send some more information like the machine RAM usage and CPU usage when Reader 11 freezes. A screenshot would help.
Does other applications work correctly on your machine?

  • Adobe Reader 11freezes with Windows 8 64 bit

    Adobe 10 worked fine with Windows 8. After I upgraded Reader to 11 it started to freeze. It will download a PDF about a tenth of the way and then just freeze. Have to go to Taxk Manager to get out of the program. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times and this does not clear the problem. Sometimes, if i reboot my computer, it will work but one time only then it starts to freeze up again. Two questions, is there a fix and if not, how do I get back to Reader 10?

  • Adobe Acrobat Standard 9.3.1 loads pages very slowly with Windows XP 64 bit version

    Our company has purchased Dell Precision T3500 workstations with Intel XEON processor and 6 Gb of RAM. The operating system is Windows XP 64-bit version. The systems came with Adobe Acrobat Standard 9.3.1. Each one of these workstations load PDF files into Acrobat very slowly. Does anyone have a answer why?

    2.  Extract the files in the archive to somewhere like c:\win64drivers\ethernet
    3.  Once inside Win XP 64, do the following:
    a.  Click Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager
    b.  Go down to the "Other Devices" section (they'll have yellow ?'s)
    c.  Right click on the ethernet controller and click "Update Driver"
    d.  Click "Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)"
    e.  Click "Dont search.  I will choose the driver to install."
    f.  Double click the "Network Adapter" entry, and then click "Have Disk..."
    g.  Select the directory which you extracted the driver files to
    i.  You will get messages saying that Windows cannot verify that the driver matches your hardware, and that the driver is not WHQL certified.  Ignore these and click "Continue"/"Install Anyways" and your RealTek RTL8169/8110 ethernet adapter will spring to life
    after i have done this the pc just stops. and if i reboot it stops at the loading screen :/ can you tell me whats wrong i got a k8t neo serie card and windows 64 bit edition
    edit: i did it :D works now

  • Adobe reader 5 with windows 7?

    I'm told AR 5 is incompatible with windows 7 is there any fix?@

    First, you cannot have two Reader versions on the same system.
    If you are happy to have only Reader 5, you can try to run it under Windows 2000 or XP Compatibility Mode.  No guarantee it will work.
    You can download it from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobatreader/win/5.x/ - ar500enu.exe and ar505enu.exe being the English versions.
    Another way, if you don't need to use it too often, is to run a copy of XP on Virtual PC.

  • Strange FONT in Adobe Reader 9 with Windows 7

    If a pdf was made from a word document or anything other than a scan the font is very strange, not default arial (see attached picture).  I had this problem in reader X adn downgraded adn still have the problem.  WHen this document is opened in gogle docs or on another computer the font is arial.  Thanks for your help.

    I have the same issue in multiple documents on Windows 7 with Adobe Reader X 10.1.0.  Multiple others on my team can open the same files and do not have the issue.  I have done a terse check and we have similar installed programs, etc.
    Since I am not creating the documents, I have no control over how they are created.  Also, I seem to have the issue on my computer and others do not.
    Is there any way to troubleshoot font substitutions?  Is there any way to verify fonts?  Certainly I can see some fonts are not embedded in a sample I have, but I cannot see any way to know what font was specified and which was picked.  If I could find out that, I may delete the strangely spaced one so a better choice is picked.  It picks this odd font for what should be Arial...I think...but I am not sure. On this one sample doc I was able to get the creator to embed all fonts and it looks correct on my machine.  However the previous version without embedded fonts shows like this:
    Here is what it should look like:
    Both version look fine on other machines.
    Properties on bad font substitution version (I expect the circled are the issue):
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Adobe Reader incompatible with Windows Internet Explorer 9

    I recently installed the update for Windows Internet Eexplorer 9 on my laptop (Vista Home Premium) and have installed the latest Adobe Reader as well.
    After installing Windows IE 9 I found that I was not able to view any letters etc online where Adobe Reader was required.
    I tried all the suggestions in the associated help screen to no avail, so I finally 'uninstalled'  the Windows I E 9 update and magically I was once again able to view online letters etc.
    I am wondering why the latest Adobe Reader is incompatible with Windows I E 9?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I believe IE9 is not supported with Reader9, but everything should work as usual. I have both on my machine and am able to use them without any problem.
    Try repairing Reader from Programs in Control Panel.

  • Compatibility of Adobe Reader XI with mac OSX 10.8.5  and other browsers

    I would like to download and use Adobe Reader XI so that i could insert signatures into pdf documents. However, I noted that  the requirements of Adobe Reader XI for mac computers with OSX 10.8.5, specifies Safari as the browser. Can I use Firefox or Google Chrome rather than Safari?

    Both Firefox and Chrome use their own PDF viewers; you would need to configure them to use the Adobe PDF plugin: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-browser-plugin-configuration.html

  • Is Adobe CS3 compatible with windows 7 / 64 bit?

    I need a new pc for working with CS3 - does it work with uptodate technology such as windows 7 / 64 bit?
    What are ideal system requirements for CS3?

    Nobody can tell you if it will actually work on your PC. Officially it's not tested on Win 7 and not compatible and while users have gotten working setups, nobody can give you any guarantees. Even if it installs and all the apps work, certain specific features may not. Ideal setup? Given the previous point, that would be a Win XP computer from 8 years ago... Sorry, but you're asking the impossible. Simply try, employing all the tricks like compatibility modes and so on where appropriate and then come back when you actualyl have problems.

  • Adobe Reader X and Windows 7 64-bit

    Any idea when Adobe Reader X will be able to show thumbnails in Windows 7 64-bit

    No one who knows can speak, those that do not know cannot say anything of value. Adobe doesn't usually pre-announce new features. Knowing that Adobe Acrobat and Reader are old products past their prime, you may have to wait for the next version or until Adobe produces a 64-bit version of Reader.

  • Problem downloading adobe flash player with windows 7 (64 bits)

    i have a computer  acer aspire M5810 working under windows seven (64 bits) but i can not install adobe flash player
    i tried everything but no result
    is there somewhone who can help me

    Hi, You need to be sure to use the 32bit browser in Install Flash Player, as it is not supported yet for the 64bit. You can install FP in a 64bit operating system as you have, but use the 32bit browser which is the default.
    Also are you trying to Install Flash Player vs 10.0.45.2 and if so did you run the Adobe Uninstaller first?
    Thanks,

  • Adobe Reader X and Windows 7 Enterprise Memory Leak

    Hi I am using Adobe Reader X with Windows 7 enterprise when reading a 8000 page document when I do a search I notice that the memory on my machine starts to creep up typically 1Mb per search this will continue to rise to over 300Mb as the document is used until it reaches a point that it freezes the machine, The only way to recover is Ctrl-Alt-Delete and cancel the task. Has this been observed by other users?

    Good day,
    Could you provide some additional details about both the file and your system's configuration?
    What version of Adobe Reader X do you have installed? (Help > About Adobe Reader)
    If you haven't updated to 10.0.3, please do so and see if the issue persists.
    How was the PDF file you're searching created?  (File > Document Properties > What does the PDF Producer line say?)
    Are you experiencing this with multiple files?
    Have you installed SP1 for Windows 7?

    But when I connect this same iPhone to another laptop with Windows 7, 64 bit version with the latest version of itunes 64 bit, there is no internet sharing, no error, no signal of fails, it is just as if the hotspot option were OFF.
    Its is posible to share internet from iPhone 3GS to a PC with Windows 7, 64 bit version?

    Hey there @slee , welcome back
    I would suggest trying the steps in this guide for the installation troubles you are having on your one specific Windows 7 computer.

    You can also try disabling your firewall while you run the installation to see if that helps.

  • Compatibility of Quicktime and Windows Vista 64 Bit Version

    I am currently using Win Vista Home Premium 32 bit. However, I'd like to try the 64 bit version (which I have).
    I see the latest version of Itunes is compatible with Windows Vista 64 bit versions. However, that does not appear to be the case with Quicktime. Can anyone confirm this?
    If Quicktime is not compatible with Vista 64 bit, is the so called Quicktime Alternative a viable solution?

  • Does Adobe Reader Touch for Windows 8 support forms with auto calculation?

    I'm using a preformatted form that contains auto calculations.  When I use it on Adobe reader 11 on my laptop, it works.  However, when I use the Adobe reader app for windows eight the auto calculations do not work.   Is there anything I Can do?

    Adobe Reader Touch (Windows Store app with "Modern" UI) does not support JavaScript yet.   Thus, auto calculations or field formatting will not work.
    If your operating system is Windows 8/8.1 (Pro), not Windows RT, you can install and run Adobe Reader XI (desktop app with classic UI).
    If your operating system is Windows RT, you may want to try Microsoft Reader (the built-in PDF viewer by Microsoft) to see if auto calculations work.
