Downloading pdf reader, stops, Error 1500

I'm trying to download and run Adobe pdf reader V10.  New PC, Windows 8.  Gets almost through download, Error 1500 Another Installation in Progress.  Restarted PC, retried, same result.  Checked files, no Adobe folder, no s/w on PC.

It appears to be a Windows issue.  See if the answer to the following Microsoft posting helps:

  • Adobe Reader Updqte Error 1500 Win 7 64-bit

    PC is running on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.
    While on Adobe Reader 9.3.1, I received a prompt that indicated an update was available. The update failed, error 1500. 
    I rebooted and tried again.  Same error.  I rebooted a second time into Safe Mode with networking.  That consistently produced error 1400, although the networking was functioning properly.
    After each Error 1500 I ran the Adobe repair utility as advised. No errors there, but each subsequent update still generated Error 1500.
    I consulted  Adobe's support page http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/332/332507.html.  First I tried Solution 2—no change, the update still generated error 1500.  Then I tried Solution 1, but the Registry does not contain setting \Inprogress under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer  as the solution indicated.
    I uninstalled Adobe Reader completely and reinstalled it from the Adobe.com site (which took me back to release 9.3.0, because the Adobe Reader download file has not been updated as would be best practice!).  After doing this, updates still generated error 1500.
    With both Vista and Windows 7 64-bit versions, I have experienced more update errors with Adobe Reader than with numerous other complex products that I run on this machine.  Please advise how I should resolve this problem, which I suspect may be related to the 64-bit version of Windows.  None of these problems occurred on an XP machine.

    I don't know if this article was written solely for 32-bit systems.  I do not currently have a 64-bit system, and I also have not very much prior experience with Windows x64.
    Still, I would like to try to help find a solution for this problem.  Can you check if this key is somewhere else in your registry, e.g. under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WOW6432node or similar?

  • Adobe PDF Reader causing error in Windows 7

    Greetings everyone.
    I created a very simple VB.NET windows form application that only has one control, the Adobe PDF Reader. I created this project in both VS 2005 (.NET 2.0) and VS 2010 (.NET 3.5). My developer machine is XP SP3 32 bit. I experienced the same problem with version 8 and 10 of Adobe Reader.
    When I compile the application and run the EXE file on my XP machine, everything is fine. I can see the form with the Adobe PDF Reader control. When I try to run the same program on our new Windows 7 SP 1 32 bit test machine, I get a generic Windows 7 error that says "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program" and I never see the form.
    Has anybody else had this experience with Adobe PDF Reader on Windows 7?

    I appear to have found the solution to the problem RE AcroPDF.dll with Windows 7.
    I had Visual Studio 2010 installed on our Windows 7 test machine. I added Adobe Reader to the list of controls. When I tried to add the control to a form I got an error that said:
    Failed to create component 'AxHost'. The error message follows: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80004005): Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component.
    When I researched this error in Adobe's forums, I found another user that basically said I needed to go to the Internet settings, under Preferences for Adobe Reader X, and make sure the box for Display PDF In Browser was checked.
    After testing with my applications, this does appear to resolve the problem.
    Let me know if anyone has any additional comments. Thanks for the help.

  • Some elements of downloaded PDF not showing (Error: "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio...")

    I'm on a PC attempting to view a downloaded PDF. It's an application so the document is generated by our online system and aggregates info from the applicant as well as documents they uploaded. I can see most of the final product but the document uploaded by the applicant gives the error "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat 9 or Adobe Reader 9, or later." I downloaded the latest Reader (DC) and when I searched to download the latest Flash Player I got a message that it should be up-to-date since I use Chrome. I've seen other folks having this problem; any suggestions?? Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for your response! The document appears the same either way. I downloaded the file and have opened it with both Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one.
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not downloading properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • I have a new Window 7 version computer,  I cannot download Adobe Reader.  error 1316.A

    I have a new Window 7 Version Computer.  
    When I try to download Adobe Reader.  I get an error 1316.A.  What
    am I doing wrong.    Is this compatable with Widows 7?

    It could be that the Adobe Acrobat trial came pre-installed on your machine.
    Best thing to do is to go to add/remove programs, remove Acrobat (and Reader if it exists) then try your install again.
    It also might be a good idea to run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility (I think they have a version for Win 7 anyway) and use it to remove any leftover pieces before trying the install.

  • Split PDF - read-only error

    I am trying to split a PDF document on the top level bookmarks that I have created. I created all of the bookmarks using the file name that I want to output. I go to document, split document, select Top-level bookmarks and output options and select use bookmark names for file names and unselect "Do not overwrite existing files" and then click OK.
    It creates about 12 of my 80-something bookmarks and then tells me that there is an error and it is read-only and will not split the rest of the document. I have saved-as under different names, in different locations and keep getting the same error message. The document that I am splitting is not read only, it is not protected. I have no idea why it won't continue to split the rest of the document. Any suggestions?

    If it happens always at a specific location check if there's something out
    of the ordinary with that bookmark. For example, does it contain any weird
    characters in its name? Is it identical to another bookmark (or even to the
    name of the document itself)?
    I would think the application could handle those situations, but maybe it
    can't...

    Can't open PDFs, Initially received runtime error,updated Reader - new error Adobe Reader has stopped working, uninstalled re-installed same error message Adobe Reader has stopped working

    Assuming that you are in Win (which you haven't said), you can try using this tool to first remove all traces of previous versions of Reader:

    Then, download the full offline Reader installer from

    and run it immediately after restarting your computer.
