Downloading issue with Adobe X reader

Not sure why but every single time I have attempted to download and install this I have had problems, even changed browser to see if that would help but each time I download and attempt to run and install it I either get 'not a valid win32 application' or it half installs then stops and says 'corrupt information from reliable source' or something like that and ends having failed an attempted install. Any ideas would be great and thanks.

Print issue with Adobe PDF reader print in IE9

We are unable to print Brava PDF documents with Adobe PDF reader activeX enabled in IE9. The same runs fine in Chrome with Adobe PDF reader activeX enabled.
I noticed Chrome uses
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\AIR\nppdf32.dll, whereas IE9 uses-C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX\AcroPDF.dll.
Has anyone faced this issue?

Can you print other pdf files from within IE9? Can you download the files and print them directly from Reader on you computer? Please list the steps you are using to print the pdf from IE9.

GPO issue with Adobe Acrobat / Reader

Hello,
I am trying to deploy out Adobe Pro 9 via GPO and when installing on clean machine there are no issues. However, we have machines with Adobe Standard 6.0, Adobe Reader 8.1.2, or actually both (ugh). Simply removing the MSD group for these older GPO's does not completely uninstall all the files and registry entries - this is then causing a "fatal error installing..." in event log when the new GPO tries to deploy, and causes it to fail. Despite all the reccomendations the only way I can get the new GPO to deploy is by going into the registry manually and searching /removing every single reference of Adobe.
Does anyone know of a more efficient method to allow the new GPO to deploy, or are the KB articles the only known options (which unforutnately did not work for me).
Thanks for any help -
Andy

Hi Andy,
I sympathize with your situation but can't offer much help. Adobe doesn't support 7.x now let alone 6.x. Further, GPO was really designed to manage registry settings and was never designed to manage full installs--especially over multiple, older versions of legacy products. You may have script your way to cleaning all the old reg keys and legacy files before installing.
The new way to handle deployments on Windows is SCCM. Microsoft recommends SCE for smaller businesses (http://www.microsoft.com/systemcenter/en/us/essentials.aspx). SCCM is far more powerful and provides an amazing set of features beneficial to managing clients across the enterprise.

I have been suggested to down grade to 10.6.6 due to issues with Adobe and Apple working things out. I have downloaded 10.6.6 but wont let me install. Any ideas?

Yes, simply reinstall from your Snow Leopard installer disc. The reinstall will not erase the hard drive. After reinstalling you can upgrade to 10.6.6 with your updater.

Viewing issue with Adobe Reader

Hi there,
I'm having an issue with Adobe reader, which appears to be not related to platform or version. To cut a long story short. I've created an A4 design in Photoshop. Part of this design includes some boxes, that have been given an outline (border) effect. Also bare in mind that the Photoshop files are being created at 350dpi.
When I put my design into Illustrator/ InDesign and then generate a PDF file. I then go and look at the pdf file and when the zoom is at 100%, the edges of the boxes are not straight, you'll get a slight offset half way along for example. However, when I zoom in to 400% the problem disapears and the lines (edges) look perfectly as they should.
Does anyone know about this issue? I'm worried that when I print from the PDF, this issue will be in the print-out - or will it be OK when I print it seeming as it dissapears at 400% zoom.
Any prompt answers or help would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
Luke

Can you open Reader by itself? If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

I am having a file moving issue with Adobe Reader XI

I am having a file moving issue with Adobe Reader XI on a Windows 7 32bit system. When Adobe reader is set as the default program for PDF files moving files from one directory to another takes over a minute, regardless of the size of the file. When the default handler is set to another program, like Nuance or PDF Creator, this is instant. What in Adobe Reader is causing this and what can I do to speed up file moving? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I am using Windows 7 home edition and using Internet Explorer 10
The PDF's are online on websites that I am trying to open. Both on the site as well as trying in a new window.
Thank you
Jeff

Issues with Adobe Reader with Windows 7

I'm having big issues with Adobe Reader. It won't open/display PDF files and closes on it's own!

Not sure if it can help you but I believe you have NVIDIA driver on your machine. Which version it is?
Many tumes issue is seen with NVidia drivers on the machine. Not only Reader but other major apps also crash due to issues in this module.
Please update the NVIDIA graphics card drivers. More information is provided in the below links

Please let us know if you still face this issue.

I got some issues with Adobe Reader.

Hello!
I got some issues with Adobe Reader. When I read a document in the Firefox
I have to click in the Adobe window all the time to reactivate keyboard shortcuts
to tale effect in the document.
Like when I scroll up and down the document with the arrow keys, this doesn't
work after changing to an other windows or tab and coming back to the previous
window.
Was there a clue to this behavior? Like a check box or what I did not see until
now?
Thank You Very Much.
Sincerely,
Steve

Does this occur with all pdf documents or only one specific document? What version of the Mac operating system are you using? What version of Acrobat reader?

There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running please exit and try again. (0:521)

There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running please exit and try again. (0:521)
Although I have found other threads in this forum relating to this error - none of the fixes appear to work. I've not found precisely the same error number (0:521), might I need a different fix for this? Has anyone else had the same error?
Just to note, this appears to be an issue with Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7 while viewing pdfs 'in-browser' i.e. using the plugin. Other versions of IE on other machines and FF on the same machine work fine on the same pdfs. It also works if you right click the pdf, download and view it in Acrobat Reader 'locally'.
Any help greatly appreciated, I'm stumped.

We were getting the same error on a Win 7 machine which had Acrobat 7 (running in compatability mode) and Reader X installed. When the user was trying to open the link from an email the error 'There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat.....(0:521) would appear and the pdf would not load.
Investigating the problem I can across an article to uncheck the option "Display PDF in browser" (in the application choose Edit -> Preferences -> Internet). Undertaking this procedure in Acrobat Reader X however, I could not uncheck this and the path the app was showing was for Acrobat 7!?!
Therefore, opened Acrobat 7 and undertook the same procedure. Unchecked the "Display PDF in browser" (in the application choose Edit -> Preferences -> Internet) which I was able to do, saved and closed the application.
Rechecked Acrobat X and the "Display PDF in browser" could be deselected and the path was now for ..\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe
Retried the original email with the link to the pdf and it now opens without error.
Not too sure if this will help but just thought I would share.

There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running, please exit and try again. (4:4)

Trying to open a streamed PDF in an IFRAME in Internet Explorer 9 on my Win7 64bit machine.
This results in the following dialog:
There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running, please exit and try again. (4:4)
The PDF is streamed (not read from disc) from a servlet in our Java WebSphere environment and the call looks like this:
https://intranetserver.com/myapplication/OpenDocumentServlet.pdf?documentToOpenID=1
The Servlet sets content-type header application/pdf and content-length and writes the bytes to the buffer.
Does the error dialog even come from Acrobat? When the dialog opens there is no active AcrReader process visible in task manager.
Please advise!

There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat Reader etc etc error code 103?? Help Please

Adobe Acrobat Reader issue as above - downloaded latest version again still issues. I am using an old Acer laptop with Windows XP which I only now use for printing

The etc etc refers to the usual standard message as follows - also re Acrobat I was merely repeating the message given.
'there is a problem with Adobe Acrobat Reader. If it is running exit and try again (103:103)' this was the exact message given. I had version 11.0.08 which I have now deleted and am using an earlier version 10.0.4 which seems to have resolved the problem for the time being

Error: "There is a problem With Adobe Acrobat/Reader..." What is .MST file??

I get the following error message and I looked it up in the knowledge base, and there was a solution for fixing the error message. However, I have no idea what they are talking about. I have downloaded the Customization Wizard, but I have no clue what the following means:
A) Create a new transform
B) Open your previously created .mst file
I went into the C Drive and opened Program Files. I found the Adobe folder, but I couldn't find an .mst file anywhere. Am I completely lost??? Below is the knowledge base solution:
Error: "There is a problem With Adobe Acrobat/Reader..." when you view a PDF in a browser (Acrobat and Adobe Reader 8 on Windows)
Issue
When you try to view a PDF in Internet Explorer, you see the error message, "There is a problem With Adobe Acrobat/Reader. Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and try again." When you click OK to the error, the PDF opens outside of the browser.
Reason
When you use the Adobe Customization Wizard to create a transform for Adobe Acrobat 8 or Adobe Reader 8, and you choose the option to "Make Acrobat the default viewer if both Acrobat and Reader are installed", or "Make Reader the default viewer if both Acrobat and Reader are installed", an error occurs if the computer does not have Acrobat or Reader already installed.
Solution
Create a new transform and re-deploy Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
Start the Adobe Customization Wizard 8.
Open your previously created .mst file.
Under Installation Options, select "Installer will decide which product will be the default".
Save the transform.
Re-deploy Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
Additional Information
When you create a transform in Adobe Customization Wizard 8, the installation options allow you to set the default viewer for PDF files. "Installer will decide which product will be the default" is the default setting and should be used when you are uncertain if the target machine has a version of Acrobat or Adobe Reader that won't be removed as part of the installation process. When installed silently using this option, Acrobat will always be configured as the default viewer.

I think you are headed down the wrong path. The Customization Wizard is what you use to push out Reader to several hundred computers. An MST is a package or transform file that is used to accomplish this task. Unless you are an IT person and are trying a deployment of Reader this solution does not fit your situation.

Issue with Adobe maybe?

Hi,
So I am having issues with adobe reader. I work as tech support and someone called in with issues. His issue is:
Cannot open forms and enter information then save them back using his program. The webprogram he is using is JIDS. JIDS requires that the pdf be opened in the webbrowser. This is so it can be saved back to their database or whatever.
The issue is when he tries to open the document in ie it opens it on his local adobe program not in the browser. I checked the addons and adobe will not appear there. (in any of the catagories plz do not reply im in the wrong view or whatever) If I open a force ie to open a pdf nothing appears (makes sense because it says there is no addon). I have uninstalled and reinstalled adobe multiple times from adobe.com (it is up-to-date) every time says installed successfully. This is a new computer and does not have older versions on it. I have removed it using the adobe cleaner then reinstalled no change. I tried reapplying the acropdf.dll using regsvr32 both in the 32bit and 64 bit locations (\windows\system32\ and \windows\sysWOW64\) and I keep getting an error that says loaded but dllregisterserver error 0x80070005. which is permissions error, but he is the only admin on the pc(local admin) and has full access, uac is shut off and i was using the cmd in run as administrator mode.
Since i couldnt find anything else on this I dicided to use firefox since ie and FF are only browsers allowed by JIDS. I downloaded newest FF and FF does say adobe reader addon is installed, but when i open the pdf in the JIDS program the fields are not editable and it has a popup ontop of the browser saying something about compatability issue and asks me to open with different program (clicking it opens the pdf in the adobe reader program and it is then editable but will not save back to the website, no supprise there).
He is using windows 7 64bit logging onto a domain. Using IE9 and updated adobe reader (11.0.03) and newest version of Firefox
Windows is fully up to date.
His computer is the exact same model as the one next to it that works perfectly fine and he hasnt done anything that could have messed up the system files (he knows he is bad with computers and doesnt do anything without asking someone else first). Mostly only uses the webbrowser and another program thats installed on there for him already.
I plan on installing adobe reader X or possibly older version of IE/FF to see if these might help. I also will be checking/disabling what he has for AV (i think its just windows security essentials but im not sure will doublecheck).
Any other suggestions on things to try? What is could be causing these issues?

Probable issue with the Firefox is that in the documentation it is poorly worded poorly, JIDS only support FF 17.
What is the issue with IE if that does fix the FF issue?

Issues with Adobe PSE 12 and Premier Elements 12 plus DiskWarrior 4.4

Since upgrading to the final version of OS X 10.10 Yoesemite I have issues with Adobe PSE 12 and Premier Elements 12 plus DiskWarrior 4.4. I don't recall their being any issues while I went through the Beta testing process. The Adobe products (PSE and PE) give me a configuration message "error 16" and it tells me to uninstall and reinstall. I have done this a few times/ It seems to go through the whole install process until the startup where it crashes. I downloaded PSE 11 and at least it starts up but I haven't used it to do anything. Also DiskWarrior 4.4 does not load up from the hard drive anymore (error message) and when I boot it up from disk is doesn't give me the option of correcting permission when repairing files and folders.
At lease all of otheother software including Photoshop Lightroom 5.6 seem to be working.
Very sad

Barbara,
Yes, I accessed the "updates" menu from the Help pull-down menu. I also accessed the updates using the Mac Terminal application with results shown in my original post. Regardless of whether I used the Help menu or the Mac Terminal app, the AAM tool still responded with:
Update Failed
   Updates could not be applied
   The error log file may help you in identifying the problem. The, try updating again. If the problems persist, contact customer support for further assistance.
The error log file read as follows:
   Photoshop Camera Raw 8.5
   There was an error installing this update. Please quit and try again later. Error Code: U44M1I210
   Looking at the the output of the Mac Terminal app, it shows:
   ... hdiutil: attach failed - no mountable file systems
   Is this relevant?
Regarding your follow-up message pointing to:
Update 12.1 installation errors | Photoshop Elements, Premiere Elements,
the files referenced in this link are present, are correctly named, and they are in the correct locations, so it would appear that these issues are not related to the ACR 8.5 update problem
Thanks

Privacy/Security Issue with Adobe Flash 10

Not sure if anyone has noticed this or not, but there is a
bizarre (if minor) privacy/security issue with Adobe Flash Player
10. I came across it while attempting to upload a file to Flickr.
Previous versions of AFP do not exhibit this problem.
Specifics: using Firefox 3.x, Vista.
The problem: When Flickr calls the "open file" dialogue in
Flash 10 (in order to upload files) via the "Upload Photos and
Videos" link, at the bottom of the dialogue, to the right of the
"File Name" box, sits a common UI element that brings up a dropdown
menu of what appear to be (or at least are supposed to be) recently
viewed or downloaded or accessed files. Actually I'm not sure how
Flash 10 compiles or accesses this list of files, but at any rate,
a list of files come up.
The problem is that, as far as I can tell, the list of files
that come up reference a long list of files, some that are very old
and that no longer exist, and that there is no way that I can find
to clear the list. This is a minor security/privacy issue, as
generally there should be a way to prevent a dialogue from
displaying a long list of past-accessed files by clearing a cache
somewhere or other -- imagine if it was impossible to clear the
history of a web browser, for example -- this would be considered a
pretty significant privacy issue. I have tried everything from
flushing the browser cache to uninstalling and reinstalling the
browser to uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Flash to using the
Flash Settings Manager to clear out the Flash saved sites to
turning off Vista indexing to clearing out Vista's Recent Items
list. None of these actions did anything to clear out this list of
files. I can find no references to these files anywhere when I use
Vista Search (with unindexed and system files searched as well),
and I can find no reference to the files anywhere in the registry
(I checked just in case Flash 10 was storing this index in some
really bizarre place.) I've linked to a screenshot below of what
I'm talking about -- most of the files listed below were deleted a
long, long time ago, and so I have no idea why this dialogue refers
to them.
Screenshot
Is there a simple work-around for this that I'm unaware of?
Even if there is, there needs to be some more obvious way to clear
out this list. Where is this information being stored, and what
criteria does this list use to "put a file on the list"?

Thanks for putting me on the right scent. That's what I'd
originally thought, too -- it's just that the file-> open dialog
was giving an entirely different list of files with other
applications, so I assumed that it must be Flash that was the
culprit. Turns out the reason it was different with Flickr was
because it was restricting the file results via a long string of
video and picture filetypes that are compatible with the Flickr
service.
It turns out the information I'm looking for is buried deep
within the registry. The only way to clear out this list of files
is to delete the following key (or specific subkeys):
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32\OpenSavePidl MRU
Seems more than a little stupid to store such information in
the registry if security is your concern. Vista beguiles me
sometimes.
