Deploy Adobe Reader on Mac and Disable Adobe Updater

I am having trouble distributing Adobe Reader for our mac endpoints and configuring it in a way that Adobe never notifies the end user for updates. They are standard users and are not able to update the application anyway. I handle updates via push distribution. The documentation that I have read either isnt clear or hasnt worked in my testing.
Thanks

Can you provide a link to what you're reading? It should be the admin guide here: http://www.adobe.com/go/acroadminguide
If something is not clear, post back.

    Are you launching Pages from an icon in your Dock? Installing the update does not change the Dock icons & it does not remove the older versions. Go to your Applications folder & launch the new Pages from there.

    If you have the first gen ipod touch as your information shows, then you would have to buy a software update:

    Just downloaded Yosemite on my Mac and the Yosemite update for Garage Band.  Now when I open an existing Garage Band project and click on a vocal track, a message window says, "Could not find General Audio 10" and have no smart controls for that track (reverb, etc.)  Help?

    Re: I downloaded Garage Band 2x and the same note appears: there is no General Audio 10. Please advise. Thank you.
    Try this: Go to your menu bar, select "Garageband" and then "Restore Sound Library..."
    It can take awhile to download as it's a pretty big library. You might need to also select "Update Sound Library..." after the restore is done.

  • Reader Comparion - Mac and PC

    Adobe Reader for the PC does not display all colors.
    It's embarrassing when the client is expecting one thing and receives another.
    Here's an example: https://www.dropbox.com/s/01re888xtcs1bue/pdf%20comparison.jpg
    I created this in Illustrator (Mac) and it looks fine in both Acrobat Pro and Adobe Reader. Yet the PC version of the same pdf is completely off.
    Has anybody else experienced this... is there a fix?
    Thanks all!

    I wasn't complex so I didn't us layers, just the gradient tool in Illustrator.
    Funny thing is that Quick View on a Mac (holding down the space bar) gives the same view as the pc version of the pdf.
    Here's a link to the pdf. You'll probably need to copy and paste in a new window:

  • Format Drive 4i Tunes to be read by Mac and Windows

    Hello,
    I'd like to take a load a firewire drive with some of my library from my mac so I can use it in iTunes on my Windows computer at work. If I format the drive MS-DOS will that be compatable with both platforms or is there something else I need to do?
    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply.
    That is an important point. I just assumed that a drive containing my iTunes music folder could be accessed by iTunes on my Mac and iTunes on my Windoze box too.
    Any body using a drive on both platforms?
    Surely this has to work...I mean how else would someone switch from using iTunes on Windoze to iTunes on a Mac.....re-import their entire library??

  • MDT: deploy a WSUS-server/SCCM and include Windows updates?

    Hi,
    I'd like to deploy an sccm-server which will contain a WSUS-server. However, this SCCM-server itself should go to Internet and download all updates available. How can I achieve this in a tasksequence step?
    Pls advise.
    J.
    Jan Hoedt

    Is this an MDT question or an SCCM question?
    The SCCM server would need the Software Update Point role installed but that doesn't make it a WSUS server, per se. SCCM uses the metadata from WSUS to download updates to packages. It does not function like a standalone, traditional WSUS server.

  • Recomendations on how to deploy Adobe updates in a corporate enviroment

    I am sure this has been asked but I couldn't find anything
    We have many computers on a corporate network that are running Adobe Acrobat (6, 7, 8, & 9).  I am looking for an effective way to update all of my adobe versions with the latest patches on all of the computers without going to each computer and downloading 6-12 different updates.
    Is there a centrally manage and deploy the updates to all PCs automatically?  I know there is many high-end software to do this that will cost 5,000-10,000 dollars but I would prefer to do it for much less if possible.  Right now for us Adobe is the Only product that is 'out of date'.
    If not, do I need to download each update and deploy all of them or is there a 'rollup' package or service pack I can install instead?  ex...for Acrobat 8.0 I need to download 8.01, 8.02, 8.03, then 8.1, 8.12, 8.12, then 8.2...etc.  I would like to download the most recent update and apply that to the origional installation.  Most software has this capability so I may be surprised if Adobe doesn't offer this ability.
    Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated.
    Thank You

    I am in a similiar circumstance and received the following advice:
    CowboyInAZ recommended to me:
    Why not manually download the standalone installer of 9.3.1, and put it on a network server? Then link to it internally, and let the end users install it from the internal link, where the firewall can't interfere with it.

    Here are the downloads, if you want to use the suggestion from the previous post:
    * 9.3 installer http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.3/enu/AdbeRdr930_en_US.msi
    * 9.3.1 update http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.3.1/misc/AdbeRdrUpd931_all_incr.msp

  • Downloaded latest Reader for Mac and have had wireless printer problems.  Either can not printer or it is extremely slow.

    I downloaded the latest Adobe Reader for my Mach and I have a wireless Canon Printer.  I have not had any problems with my printer until now.  It will either not print or print really slow.  Can not print any pdf files at all.  Do I need to uninstall it or is there a fix?

    Uninstall Reader. Is your printing back to normal? What version of Reader did you install under what OS?

  • Photos not syncing between Mac and iPhone since update to Photos on Mac.

    Ever since I updated to Photos on my Late 2013 macbook pro retina, photos are not syncing between it and my iPhone 6. Both are updated to the most recent software update. Photo stream is on. Does anyone have this problem or know a solution?

    You will have to go the the Photos tab in iTunes when you connect the iPhone.  Then reset the photo sync options.  They were reset with the upgrade to use iCloud by default, but you can change the settings back to sync folders, just like before.
