How do I activate the Search/Find feature in Adobe Reader 9.3.1?

My version of Adobe Reader is 9.3.1.  I am trying to search a document and have used
the Search feature.  I have put in words that I know are in the document but it keeps returning
0 finds.  Is there something I have to do to get the Search feature to turn on?
My e-mail is [email protected]
I would appreciate an answer.  Thank you.

When I go to Files>Properties>Security, the following is allowed:  Printing, Content Copying, Content Copying for Accessibility, Page Extraction and Filling of Form Fields.  So what is not allowed is Document Assembly, Commenting, Signing and Creation of Template Pages.
The Font tab shows:  Courier; Type 1; Encoding: Standard; Actual Font: CourierSTD; Actual Font Type: Type 1.
And the tool I described does actually highlight in a light blue.  It then turns from what looks like a plus sign with the middle missing into an arrowhead.
I'm not sure if this is helpful but I hope it is of some use.

  • How do I get the PDF Convert feature of Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9.4.4, which makes a PDF of a web page interactive, to work in Firefox 4.0.1?

    I just installed (on my Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) operating system/Intel i5 CPU M560 2.67 GHz) and am now using as my default browser Firefox 4.0.1 because Internet Explorer 9 was giving me so much trouble--lack of display of web content, lack of PDF reproduction when web content displayed, screwball formatting display, etc., all of which has been remedied by the mere installation of Firefox 4.0.1.
    How do I get the PDF Convert feature of Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9.4.4, which converts a web page to an interactive PDF, to set up and work on Firefox 4.0.1?

    You can not do that using Adobe Acrobat 9. Adobe never made a create PDF add-on for Firefox for use with Adobe Acrobat 9. They created a Firefox add-on for use with Acrobat X, but currently that one does not work with Firefox 4 though Adobe are working on an update.

  • Find feature in Adobe Reader

    How do I use the Find feature in Adobe Reader?  I used the Print PDF feature then copied the file from a Windows 7 computer to a CD-ROM and am trying to use it on a Windows 8 computer.  The file opens but I cannot use the Find feature.  Please help and thanks!

    Try opening Adobe Reader on it's own then use File>Open (let's be sure that Reader is opening the file). Does Find work?
    If it does, you just need to change your file associtaions so that Reader opens pdf files by default.
    Here's how: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/choose-programs-windows-uses-default

  • How do I remove the Tools Pane Permanently in Adobe Reader DC?

    I have just installed Adobe Acrobat Reader DC version 2015 Release and it has a very annoying
    bug/feature that I don't like.
    I have to keep removing the Tools Pane using using SHIFT+F4 every time.
    Is there a way to make this pane dissapear permanently by making this setting stick?
    This hasn't been a problem in previous versions of Adobe Reader.
    Please tell me how to remove this annoying pane or issue an update to make this setting stick when opening PDFs.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hey Huh,
    to disable the right pane, you can follow the answer from tmmcentyre  https://forums.adobe.com/message/7472578#7472578 or the answer from HHugo https://forums.adobe.com/message/7544218#7544218
    The problem with both workarounds is, if you click on "Home" or "Tools" on the toolbar, you can't go back to "Document."
    With tmmcentyres workaround you lose some more features too.
    To fix this follow HHugos workaround, but keep the last line form the file too.
    So edit the "Viewer.aapp" file located in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat Reader DC\Reader\AcroApp\ENU\".
    Here remove line 2 till 8:
    <Layouts>
        <Layout name="Default">
            <RHP>
                <Component name="AppShortcutListView" type="Custom"/>
            </RHP>
        </Layout>
    </Layouts>
    So the content of the file is only:
    <Application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/acrobat/app/2014" title="Viewer" id="Viewer" majorVersion="1" requiresDoc="true" minorVersion="0">
    </Application>
    Now the right pane should be closed if you open a .pdf file. You can switch between "Home", "Tools" and "Document" without issues and the remaining features should work as intended also.

  • How do I set the Page size default in Adobe Reader using Window 8?

    I need to set the page size everytime I go to print from my Adobe Reader in my windows 8. Is there a way to set the page I want letter (8.5 by 11) as a default? So I do not have to do this everytime I print something?

    I can't help but wonder why Adobe doesn't respond to this - at this point there are 464 views of this item and still no answer. I have the same problem and it's a big irritation to have to set the duplex mode everytime I want to print!

  • How do I activate the new tab feature that shows a dozen favorite web pages? It works for a brief spell when a fresh FF is installed, then it stops working.

    What I get on a new tab is a header that says: "You've opened a new tab" and a search box. But I prefer the FF feature that shows my favorite web pages when I open a new tab, but it seems precarious and a bit unstable. If I could easily restore the feature, I'd be happy enough. The Help information on this feature says to click on a button to add a web page, but I don't see that button on my FF 16. Also the Help page refers to "pinning" a web page onto the new tab page using a pin icon, but I don't have that icon either.

    What is the value of the <b>browser.newtab.url</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page?
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
    You can try to reset some preferences to the default with the SearchReset extension:
    *https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
    If you are not able to keep changes permanently (e.g. they revert after restarting Firefox) then see:
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
    You can check for problems with preferences and try to rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js files and a possible user.js file to reset all prefs to the default values.

  • I installed Acrobat XI pro on a Mac but it only shows the features of acrobat reader - how do I activate the pro features?

    How do I get Acrobat XI pro on a Mac to work fully, and not just act like Acrobat Reader. i just paid and downloaded it, entered new serial number when requested, but when I open a .pdf I have no pro features showing (such as editing tools, convert to powerpoint, etc). I use XI pro on a windows PC and have no problem there.

    Perfect answer. And I feel a bit dumb (should have worked it out, but still finding my way round the Mac). Many thansk for the help.

  • I want google as my search engine, not Bing. How do I make Google the default search engine in the "Search the Web" feature of the search bar; or, how do I remove the "Search the Web" feature of the search bar so that "Google" can be default?

    I want google as my search engine, not Bing. But no matter what I do in "Manage Search Engines," Firefox seems to reset to "Search the Web," which uses Bing.
    How do I make Google the default search engine in the "Search the Web" feature of the search bar; or, how do I remove the "Search the Web" feature of the search bar so that "Google" can be default? When I move "Search the Web" down and "Google" up, the search bar resets every time Firefox reloads.

    Sometime Bing is not located in the Add/Remove programs section of the control panel.
    6 Easy Steps to Remove Bing from Mozilla Firefox:
    1. Click on the "inverted triangle" located to the right of the orange Bing icon.
    2. Select the option "Manage Search Engines...". (A pop-up window will appear titled "Manage Search Engine List.)
    3. Select "Bing".
    4. Click the "Remove" button.
    5. Select the desired search engine from the list.
    6. Click "OK"
    All Done.... :-)
    Happy Searching...
