Deploying Acrobat / Adobe Reader plug_ins

I developed a plug_in for Acrobat and the Reader. For deployment I made an Windows installer, which copies it into the plug_ins folder. This works well. But I the user updates the Reader from 8 to 9 or 10 , the installation folder changes from "Adobe\Reader 8.0" to "Adobe\Reader 9.0". The problem is now that the deinstallation from my plug_in does not work anymore. That's because the name of the parent folder has changed, and my installer has no chance to detect this change.
Has anyone experienced this problem? Is there a solution for that?
Thanks for help or some hints.

What is your operating system?
What is your Firefox version?
What is your Reader version?
I have just tried to load an online PDF on Firefox 3.6 with Reader 10.1: http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/pdfs/PlatformClients_PC_WWEULA-MULTI-20110809_1357.pdf - it took about 10 seconds to completely load and display.  (The doc has more than 300 pages.)

  • Acrobat/Adobe Reader 10.1-One Big Headache

    I have tried several times to get Acrobat/Adobe Reader -10.1 to install. I was successful installing. But in the first few minutes of using, My computer
    ran slower and even froze.I removed 10.1 and re-installed Reader 9 instead. If you are going to put an update out there ...Make sure it is USER-FRIENDLY!!!!!!!. Get it together Adobe! This is Ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!

    According to http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/860/cpsid_86063.html from 2012-01-09
    "Unsupported configurations for Reader running in Protected Mode include:
    Hosting on a Citrix or Windows Terminal Server. Fixed 10.1 (including Acrobat's Protected View)."
    Try disabling Protected Mode:
    From Adobe's help file:
    Protected mode (Windows)
    By default, Adobe Reader X runs in protected mode to provide an added layer of security. In protected mode, malicious PDF documents can’t launch arbitrary executable files or write to system directories or the Windows Registry.

  • Small box for update Acrobat Adobe reader

    I keep receiving a small box on the lower right side of my computer stating that there is an update for the Acrobat Adobe Reader almost every day.  I  downloaded it on my HP Pavilion laptop and my laptop went haywire.  I had to do a system restore.  I believe that a rep should check into this and please advise me via email.  Thank you, Bob Macchia

    Most likely that is  not from Adobe, nor in any way connected with Adobe Reader.
    What is your operating system?
    What is your installed Reader version?
    Can you post a screenshot of that notification box?  See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1070933

  • Acrobat Adobe Reader XI cloud space

    How much storage space is available in the Acrobat cloud (I have the free version of Acrobat Adobe Reader XI)?
    Also: How can I know how much memory I have used up?

    Hi Robin88,
    Adobe Acrobat.com offers 5 GB of free online storage but you cannot upload audio or video files including Adobe’s own Flash video format. You may however store PDFs, Office documents, images, Adobe formats (like Photoshop, Illustrator) and SWF files.
    For those who have not bought the subscription, the storage limit is upto 2GB

  • Bug entre Mail d'Apple et Acrobat/Adobe Reader

    Bonjour,
    je viens de relever un bug incroyable :
    Je reçois un PDF joint dans Mail d'Apple.
    Je l'ouvre (par défaut avec Acrobat sur ma machine).
    Le PDF visionné n'est pas le bon !!!???!!!
    En fait, en voilà la cause :
    En avril 2013, je change de Mac et passe du système X 10.5 à X 10.8.
    Et apparemment, les téléchargements dans Mail ne sont plus gérés dans le même dossier de "Bibliothèque" et Adobe n'a pas du relever cette modification car quelle fut ma surprise quand j'ai voulu visionner un PDF joint qui ne correspondait pas à celui qui m'a été envoyé.
    Le PDF joint au mail de mon fournisseur s'appelait "DEVIS CLIENT.PDF".
    Or quand je l'ouvre depuis Mail avec Acrobat Pro ou avec Adobe Reader, le fichier qui s'affiche s'appelle bien DEVIS CLIENT.PDF mais il date de mars 2013 !!???! Et ce n'est pas du tout le devis de ce fournisseur !?!
    En faite, Acrobat ouvre le fichier DEVIS CLIENT.PDF qui se trouve dans Users/[moi]/Library/Mail Downloads alors que le bon fichier se trouve dans Users/[moi]/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail/Data/Library/Mail Downloads
    Par contre, Aperçu m'ouvre bien le bon.
    Sûrement un point à corriger de la part d'Adobe.
    a+
    Stéphane

    J'en ai profité pour passer de la CS5 à la CC.
    L'installation c'est donc faite avec Creative Cloud (le logiciel qui “manage” les applis et qui n'a pas de nom spécifique )

  • Adobe Reader XI deployment failing with error code 35

    We are perfroming an enterprise deployment of Adobe Reader XI via System Center 2012 onto Win 7 machines. Our first pilot of 100 users was nearly flawless. Our second pilot of the same size had a roughly 30% failure rate with the error code 0x23 (35). Does anyone know what this error code means?

    I'm going to assume no one has seen this before?

  • Adobe Reader X Pro serial number popup on launch (windows 7)

    Hi Folks
    I have Adobe CS6 and part of this volume licence comes Adober reder X. 10.0.0
    Unfortunately I'm having issues when deploying the Adober reader X package, I get a popup saying I have x amount of days left of my trial. (and it is actually counting down)
    I've allocated the CS6 suite out to many PC's maybe 700 or so, and then allocated the Adobe reder X pro out. This is a side loading application from my understanding and depends on the full CS6 to be out first.  The results I'm finding are mixed. Some staions are working fine, no popup's what so ever and others when opening a PDF or launch the application will produce the popup. This does seem to be computer specific I've tested the same network user on different stations and get different results. working, not working! I've also tried the full suite + adobe reader x pro on windows XP stations and so far it's never had the same issues, unfortunately out networks are quickly moving to windows 7, this seems to be the OS I have the problems with. I've not fully checked the difference with installed application from one station from another, I can do if required but most stations get the same apps installed via a 3rd party deployment tool.
    I used the Customisation wizard to create the application and cut down on as many popups/updates as possible using this little tool.  All works as you would expect apart from this serial number behaviour.  This is causing major issues in all our education establishments and I really need to find some solution to this problem that doesn't involve de-installing the applications, it's too far spread.
    I've been readign the forums and see a few different issues relating to serial number popup issues.  Is this a software design fault?
    Mike R

    Hi,
    You've provided details about the problem, but not about your configuration and deployment steps.
    First, follow the steps in the Admin and Wizard Guides here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/index.html. Pay attention to the Activation methodologies. You may have done all that, but double check.
    At the bottom of the installation workflows section, you'll also find this: http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/AdminGuide/licensing.html#acrobat-standa lone-and-aamee
    There is additional doc for Acrobat delivered with CS here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/creativesuite/enterprisedeployment.html
