End-user license agreement is not working on mac
I recently updated the Adobe Reader (free version) on my mac, however when I try to open pdf files, it says that it can't be opened because I need to accept the End-user license agreement, but it does not open. i tried removing the Adobe Readerand re-install, yet I get the same results.
Does it say that you need to LAUNCH Adobe Reader to accept the license agreement.
Have you tried doing that?
Note that Launch does not mean install, or delete, or download, it means to run the app.

Have installed version 9.5 on my Windows 7 desk-top computer.I don't know what you mean by "where and how"; Adobe Reader will automatically present the license agreement to accept the first time you use it.

Photoshop Elements 8 not opening after agreeing to end user license agreement?
So like the title suggests, when I try to open Photoshop Elements 8, an End User License Agreement pops up for me. This happened just recently and in the years I've used the software it has never, ever done this to me, so I was kind of surprised when it popped up. I click accept to proceed, but after I click accept, it doesn't do anything at all. No matter how many times I try opening it, no matter how many times I try to only open the editor first and not the organizer or run as administrator, nothing seems to work. I really don't understand why this is happening and what I should do. I know reinstalling is an option, but I no longer have the installation disc so I would like to try other methods of fixing this if possible.

I am unable to open any pdf files because I have not accepted the end user licensing agreement for adobe reader. I can not find the accept button. I have a mac.

I am using a Mac and have installed Adobe Reader for Mac, latest version. I cannot access the End User Licensing Agreement. I clicked on it and it gives me a message that I must launch Adobe, check that I agree, close and reopen. The problem is I can't find any way to launch Adobe because it appears nowhere on my launch pad, nor in my document files or on the control panel. Because of this, I cannot print bank statements nor can I get into my insurance companies billing department to make a payment. HELP!
How about in your Applications folder?

Acrobat Pro XI problem+Accept End User License Agreement when opening a PDF inside IE
Hi folks, this issue has been challenging.
Acrobat Pro CC install
W7 X64
Deployment went ok after the code was worked out, but.....
We use Desire to Learn content management system at the community college where I maintain the student computers at. When running D2L and a PDF has been embedded in some course material, I am getting the message below and the PDF won't open.
“Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User License Agreement" .
The only fix so far is to run up Acrobat Pro and run the program once. Fine and dandy, but we are looking at 700+ machines to clear in this fashion. The other part of this scenario we we also utilize Respondus Lockdown Browser to invigilate exams through D2L. Because of the "lock down" features, the student can't even get back to the desktop to run Acrobat and clear the message.
I have tried a number of GPO entries to no avail. As well, disabled the IE PDF viewer add-on. I ran Procmon with no results either; .
I have been scouring the Googlemachine and building on the GPO below to get around the issue with no results. I am hoping someone with a sharper eye than I can spot something or point me in the correct direction..
Thanks eh.

Getting error: Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser. I just purchased and installed Adobe acrobat pro for the Mac today.
Hi Tbeirne,
If you just want to save a pdf opened in Safari to your machine use the save as option from within the Reader plugin window. Just click on any of the buttons highlighted in below screenshots to Save a pdf at any location on your machine.
or
To summarize the issue, if you had opened an Internet PDF in a browser plug-in, you must use the save feature in the plug-in, not the Safari File > PDF Export, or File > Save As...
Please let us know if this solution works for you and you are able to save and view PDFs files locally.

JVM vs. end-user license agreement
Many end-user license agreements explicitly forbid to disassemble / reverse-engineer the code of a program. Does anyone know how this works together with the JVM, which effectively disassembles every class file it loads?
What the VM has to do is specified in the Virtual Machine Specification here: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/vmspec/index.html
A virtual machine does not need to decompile the code in order to be able to run it. It whould not help anyway. That being said, it's usually easy to decompile java class files (see: http://kpdus.tripod.com/jad.html) because they are not compiled to low level machine code to stay platform independent. I must say i've never seen a JVM that has the ability to display the source code, but there is no reason at it a JVM is not allowed to offer such functionality. But at the same time i don't need a JVM to do it for me, so it doesn't really matter.
You're might forbid decompiling the code, so a user may not use the JVM to decompile the code, but no JVM will decompile code to execute it, so no license agreement is broken until the user ask the VM software to decompile...
I don't know where you publish your programs but here in Holland i have the right to disassemble / reverse-engineer you binary for certain uses, this is specified by law and you cannot forbid it in a end-user license agreement. (Well you might try, but it won't hold in court.) -
How do I accept end user license agreement in adobe reader?
I have just updated the Operation System on my iMac from OS 10.6.8 to OS 10.9.4. Safari was updated to 7.0.5. When I attempt to open a pdf in Safari, I get a notice that:
Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser.
I have not been able to find any way to accept the End User License Agreement. How can I do this.
I can open pdfs in Chrome without any problems.
Thank you,
Don MonroeHi,
Go to 'Spotlight' at the top right corner of the Mac > Type Reader> Launch the 'Adobe Reader' application and then click on 'Accept' on the End User License Agreement.

Nothing to do with the download; you need to open Adobe Reader once after the install is complete, and accept the EULA. -
End User License Agreement + Safari 7
I get this message when trying to open a PDF in Safari 7.0.2 in OS 10.9.2
Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User License Agreement.
Please advise ASAP
I spent my entire day trying to find an aswer how to slove this question. Your "chat support" is certinly not very helpful.Odd...
I'd recommend:
1. Download and install Reader - http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
or
2. Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins and trash the AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin files and let Preview be your default viewer for PDFs in Safari.
The former being easier and better of the two. -
How do I find and agree to the End User License Agreement
I can't download any PDF's, I get a message that says open Adobe Reader and agree to the End User License Agreement. How do I access this??
It seems to be a chrome issue. I tried it in firefox and it worked ok...

Each time I try to open a PDF in Safari I am directed to this message:
"Before proceeding you must first launch Abobe Acrobat and accept the End User License Agreement".
This prevents me from viewing the PDF in a Safari window, or downloading the PDF file to my computer and viewing it.
No such option to "accept End User License Agreement" is avialable when I launch Adobe Acrobat. This problem has only occured since I undertook a trial of Adobe CC, and subsequently uninstalled it after deciding not to proceed with a license.
I do have Adobe 9 Acrobat Pro and Adobe Suite CS4 fully licened and operational on my Mac. I have never had this problem prior to trialing Adobe CC.If launching Adobe Reader doesn't help, try this.
1. Check the Applications folder carefully - put it into alphabetical order NOT icons. See if there is more than one Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat. If so, start each one in turn. Notice whether the message says "Adobe Reader" or "Adobe Acrobat" too.
2. If that doesn't help, even after quitting all the apps (Safari and Adobe Reader), downloading and installing again is worth a try. This will not make the message go away! But it might cause the license agreement to appear properly. -

Reader X problem - Accept End User License Agreement
I have recently updated to Adobe Reader X.
I use Windows XP (SP3) and Internet Explorer.
Now, when I attempt to read a .pdf file a Reader X message pops up with the following message;
"Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User License Agreement".
I do not have Adobe Acrobat, I am using the free Adobe Reader X.
Why am I getting this message and what can I do to stop it so that I can again read .pdf files.
This never happened with the previous version of Adobe Reader.
How can I go back to the previous version?
Thanks
Gryphon2345I have the same issue reported by Gryphon, however this response is an odd fix IF it were to be available to me.
The "Enable Protected Mode" is a new feature in Reader X that allows for a "sandbox" security layer in Reader. You can read up on that here: http://blogs.adobe.com/livecycle/2010/11/technical-details-of-adobe-reader-x-protected-mod e.html
While it does prevent you from opening up certain PDF's directly, we've only seen this when opening up files over our network. The message received was an "Access Denied" issue, and turning this off got rid of that.
In my scenario, I originally attemtped to update Reader 10.0.1 to 10.1.0 using SCUP and the published update. This caused my custom setup to be overwritten (customizations included default acceptance of license agreement, removing Auto Updater, and disableing Protected Mode). I then had to re-create a custom installation using the Customization Wizard with the 10.1.0 MSI file from the Adobe FTP site. After running this, I'm getting the above error now on machines that never had Acrobat.
That being said, Alex's suggestion of turning this on or off is not applicable b/c it's disabled based on my custom installation. The box is grayed out and I can't even enable/disable it anyway.
Anyone out there have a better solution?
UPDATE: It appears that Alex is correct. I removed the registry entry bProtectedMode from HKLM\Software\Policies\adobe\10.0\featureLockdown and was able to open all files w/out the message. However, I'm not 100% sure what this will do to other PDF files as we originally disabled this so that certain files could be opened. So far, this user has been ok with Protected Mode ENABLED, however, in a recent test, I was blocked from opening a web PDF b/c of it on my PC at my desk.
also appears others threads have been started (http://forums.adobe.com/message/3767559#3767559) so not sure when this may be looked at or answered.
