How do you use adobe acrobat reader that can be used/view as a PDF in a web browser

I get a message that say: this abode acrobat reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a
Web Browser.

Hello there,
This forum is for questions about Acrobat.com, and we cannot offer assistance for questions about other Adobe products and services. If you are having trouble with Adobe Reader, I recommend looking at the Reader forum:

Here is a search that I did for the error message you reported; it looks like there may be some helpful threads already posted there:

See if you can find a NPPDF32.DLL files in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\)
You can see the installed plugins on the about:plugins page.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/about%3Aplugins
You can set the pref plugin.expose_full_path to true on the about:config page to see the full path of plugins on the about:plugins page.
It is best not to leave that pref set to true as it exposes that full path to web servers, so reset that pref to false after you are done with the about:plugins page.
You can open about:plugins and about:config via the location bar, like you open a website (about: is a special protocol to access some build-in pages).
If you get a warning when opening the about:config page then you can confirm that you want to continue.

I got the following pop-up when I tried to open an online PDF file:
The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser.
Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and exit your Web Browser and try again.
I tried many time, and it really doesn't work.
The plug-in I have is Adobe Acrobat 8.3.0.280

After I upgraded to Firefox 5, I had the same problem and I did a work around temporarily. I went the tools menu, then Add-ons, then clicked the "Plugins" on the left side (4th one down). I "disabled" both Adobe Acrobat 8.3.0.280 and Adobe Acrobat 10.1.0.536 using the disable buttons on the right side. PDF files now open again. However they are outside the actual browser.
My guess is that Adobe didn't catch up yet with a new update to work with Firefox or vice versa.
Hope that helps!

How do you move adobe acrobat XI pro from one computer to another?

how do you move adobe acrobat XI standard pro from one computer to another?

Hi jeszamom,
You'll need either the installation media (if you bought from a retailer), or a downloaded installer. If you don't have the CD, you can download Acrobat from this links in this document: Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X - Adobe.
It's OK to keep it on the other computer; your license allows you to install it on up to two computers. But, if you'd like you can deactivate it on that old computer, which would free up that activation for use on yet another computer. Please see Activation & Deactivation Help - Adobe
You'll need your serial number to activate on the new computer.
Please let us know how it goes.

Unable to Print using Adobe Acrobat Reader - MacBook Pro - Wireless Environment

I have a Macbook Pro with 10.6.4 OS
My printer is the HP Photosmart C5180 All-in-One
It is connected via ethernet cable to my router (Netgear Wireless N Router) via 10.0.0.1 Wireless Setting.
I am able to print everything with any programs, except Adobe Acrobat.
When I send any files to the printer, i get the following error:
Error: pstopdffilter/pstocupsraster failed with err number 13
I uninstalled the driver, installed it (from the HP website latest driver), I'm able to get the printer to work on everything else, I'm able to print a test page, but... I can't print anything with Adobe Acrobat...........
Any suggestions? I do use Adobe Acrobat Reader a lot
This question was solved.
View Solution.

OK, let's try more thoroughly uninstalling the hp software for 10.5 using the 'scrubber' option. First, install the wrong software from the CD (for 10.5) so we can more thoroughly uninstall it. Next:
Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ click on HP Uninstaller
Click on Continue
Highlight your device on the left pane
Hold the Ctrl, Opt and Cmd keys and click on Uninstall << This is the scrubber option
There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall ALL hp software. (At this point, if you continue, any HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
Click Continue and let it finish
Restart your Mac
Now, run a Software Update.
Finally, download and install the "Full Featured" Driver and Software from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page.

Is it possible if I use Adobe Acrobat reader

Hi all.
I have some question to ask about Adobe acrobat reader and Adobe acrobat professional.
Is it possible if I use Adobe Acrobat reader to input data in PDF file that is generated by interactive form using web dynpro or Abap program. I try to use acrobat reader. It can not input anything into PDF Form but I'm not sure it may be can or not.
After I change PC that is install Adobe Acrobat Professional (offline: I save pdf file form web browser). It can input data into PDF Form.
Plese let me understand.
Thank you very much

1) You only need a Adobe Reader (Version 7.0.9 or higher) to enter and Save data in Adobe form. Just install the latest version of Adobe reader (8.x)
Additional Installations on the Client PC
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/73/852854f9d6418b9574dab0d321d258/frameset.htm
2) Please make sure you are creating Interactive Forms, and not Print Forms. for example, if you're using Java Web Dynpro, you need to enter the following code to make the form Interactive (so data can be saved within):
IWDInteractiveForm iForm1 = (IWDInteractiveForm) view.getElement("<name of your form here");
iForm1.setDynamicPDF(true);

What's the name of the file you are attempting to open? Is it "ScreenFlow_4.5.2.dmg"? If it is the correct name then the message is correct and you are attempting to open a file with DMG files extension and not one with a PDF file extension. Adobe Reader opens PDF files an not any other file type.

Hi adityabhargava01-
My first suggestion is to upgrade to the most recent version of Firefox by going to this link:
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
My second suggestion is to read this article on how to many your preferences on how Firefox deals with PDFs and all other file types:
[[Options window - Applications panel]]
I hope that helps!
