I am up to date with Mozilla, Adobe and Shockwave but am unable to print PDF files or view animations in programmes

I use a teaching resource called Studyladder.co.nz. It uses animations for teaching programmes and activites. On my new computer, with up to date versions of Firefox and Adobe I am unable to get the animations to work. Also I am unable to print PDF files.

Hi Hilarym-
Here are two articles with information about printing issues:
* [[Firefox prints incorrectly]]
* [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problems_printing_web_pages Problems printing web pages]
Here is another article regarding your problem with animations:
* [[Images or animations do not show]]
Hope that helps!

  • Adobe Reader v 11.0.10 cannot print PDF files

    Hello,
    My Adobe Reader v11.0.10 running on Windows 8 Pro with Media Center cannot print anymore.
    I used to be able to print from Adobe Reader before.
    I still can print to all printers using other applications – Word, Excel, Notepad.
    I can print a test page on any of my printers without any problems.
    I can print PDF files using other PDF viewers (like Foxit reader), but I can’t print from Adobe Reader.
    There is no error message on the screen and there is no any error message in the log files.
    If I uninstall Adobe Reader and re-install it, then the first time I log on I’ll be able to print once.
    But any consecutive attempt to print will fail!
    Any ideas what could be the problem?
    Thank you!

    Hello,
    I go to File --> Print menu.
    As I always do.
    It used to work before.
    I haven't tried "Print as image" option, but I'll try it and post the result!
    I will try also unchecking 'Enable Protected Mode at Startup' option under Edit> Preferences> Security (Enhanced)
    As I mentioned in my previous post I tried re-installing Adobe Reader - but no luck :
    "If I uninstall Adobe Reader and re-install it, then the first time I log on I’ll be able to print once."
    I think that the issue is not the particular file - it has something to do with Adobe Reader itself. Maybe it is corrupted????
    I'll try again tomorrow and I'll post the result!
    Thank you for your reply!

  • My bank statements are PDF read only. I cannot read them now, even though I have had no problem for the last year. My bank says it is an Adobe problem. Error message "Unable to open PDF file"

    I tried uploading the newest Adobe reader and it did not help. Any ideas?

  • I order adobe pro xi but can not create a pdf file

    i order adobe pro xi, but cannot create a pdf fie

    The basics:
    Is the application installer downloaded to the local machine?
    Has the installer been run so as to install the application?
    Was the installation a success (you can launch the application)?
    Providing adequate details will help others help you.
    What is your Operating System?
    What file formats / applications have you tried to create PDF from?

  • I recently purchased the Adobe Reader XI but can't edit a pdf file at all. Please advise on what is going on? I am paying roughly 18 GBP a month and my subscription says it is a Acrobat Pro Subscription on my account online.

    I actually just figured it out. I had bought the Acrobat pro but never updated my program on my laptop...

  • I cannot print pdf files with Adobe flash player installed

    Hello,
    I have just encountered an issue with printing PDF files on my computer. I am running windows 7 64 bit. I just upgraded to the latest Flash player with firefox addon. After I completed the upgrade, I soon realized that I could no longer print pdf files. Whenever I opened a pdf file and attempted to print it, through several different supported pdf programs, the print screen would up becoming unresponsive and I would have to close the pdf program through the task manager. I unistalled the adobe flash player and it's accompanied addon, and I was then able to print pdf files again without any issues. Can you please help me resolve this issue? Is anyone else having similar problems? Thank you in advance.

    Very strange!  What is your installed Reader version?

  • Can't print pdf files after upgrading to Adobe Reader XI

    Hi,
    I can't print pdf files after recently upgrading to Adobe Reader XI.
    Two error messages appear:
    1.- Error when starting the application because it couldn't find LXBBGF.DLL. Re-installing the application can solve the problem.
    2.- Can not load "LXBBPRP.DLL". Using defaults. Error: 126
    I can print other files (word, etc) with the same printer.
    Thank you for your advice

    Hi Pat,
    Finally I followed the instructions from another similar discussion on this web site. Unfortunately I can't find it anymore...
    I first uninstalled the Adobe Reader XI and then intalled an older version (Adobe Reader X). Now I can print pdf files!!
    Thank you anyway for your advice!

  • Can not print PDF file at all with Windows Vista

    I have Acrobat Reader 9.3.2.  I am working off of Windows Vista on my laptop to a network wireless printer (Brother MFC 9440).  I am unable to print pdf files.  About a week ago, we had problems with our printer printing anything.  I had to uninstall it and reinstalled it and it now works fine except the pdf files. I have had no problems printing any other files on any other programs but this one.  I am unsure what specific "updates" I ran while trying to figure out printers issue.  When in Reader, everything seems normal.  When I hit print, the printer box pops up as normal and then I hit ok, my printer icon at bottom pops up for about 5 secs and nothing happens.  I know that I am connected to printer due to all other programs can print.  I do not have access to another printer to see if pdf will print on another printer, but do know that the other two computers used in this office (mac laptop and mac desktop) both are able to print pdf files to this printer without a problem.  I have gone thru all the other help steps to try to resolve the situation:  it still will not print when I hit "print as image", made sure that my printer is marked as network and is default printer, made sure to check that I have all upgrades, etc.  I am not getting any error message, so am unsure what is wrong.  It just will not print.  Is there anyone that could give me some suggestions that I have not tried?  I would REALLY appreciate it! Thanks!

    Another user experience exactly the same issue with vista and printing from Adobe reader.
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/642000?tstart=1  Its copied below as a reference.
    The problem was on my Auntys PC, and yes i did updated Adobe Reader to v9.3.2 and still the same issue underlned below.
    My Aunty lives 70 miles away so will not be trying anything else.
    The printer works fine with every other application only Adobe Reader files will print.

    Back up all data.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -Rh $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    The first step should give you usable permissions in your home folder. This step will restore special attributes set by OS X on some user folders to protect them from unintended deletion or renaming. You can skip this step if you don't consider that protection to be necessary.
    Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    resetpassword
    That's one word, all lower case, with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not  going to reset a password.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • I want to create a HD disc with my Adobe Premier Elements but I am getting low resolution.  When I go to share the DVD to disc the form only offers 8pixels at the bottom.  How do I burn this DVD in HD with higher number of pixels?

    I want to create a HD disc with my Adobe Premier Elements but I am getting low resolution.  When I go to share the DVD to disc the form only offers 8pixels at the bottom.  How do I burn this DVD in HD with higher number of pixels?  I have read other forums on burning HD DVD's but I do not see the option to turn the 8 pi into 40 pi the one forum recommended.  I want my DVD to be HD so I may sell these videos online for my business.  I can't sell them the low quality they are burning now.  Hopefully you can help me.  Thanks.

    desalvom
    Thank you for your reply.
    You cannot burn your high resolution video that you can view on your computer to an AVCHD on DVD disc
    that will replay through a regular DVD player. But players are marketed under a variety of names with
    different support opportunities. One manufacturer may call its product MultiMedia Player, media player, Blu-ray player,
    etc.The bottom line is the specifications for each of the players that are candidates for the playback of
    the AVCHD format on DVD disc or the format of interest.
    If you upload your HD (1920 x 1080) video to YouTube, YouTube converts the video to flash format, but it goes up as the HD video.
    But, beware. Look at the YouTube viewing setting when your uploaded video is playing back. The YouTube default is not
    HD. It might be 360p, 480p. If you have a 1080p video, then before the YouTube playback, you should be looking
    at the video with the YouTube 1080p HD setting for best viewing. That is a YouTube matter.
    Best results depend on you
    a. setting up the Premiere Elements project preset to match the properties of the source media. That means, if
    you have 1080p source, you (manually) or the project (automatically) set the project preset at
    NTSC
    DSLR
    1080p
    DSLR [email protected]
    or the PAL counterpart, depending on your region need.
    b. if you upload your video to YouTube using the Premiere Elements feature, there is a HD preset, but you cannot
    customize it.....if you need customization, then you can export your Timeline to a file...in this example
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    AVCHD
    with Presets = MP4 H.264 1920 x 1080p30 or PAL counterpart
    and then customize the preset under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of that preset. In increase quality, you might look to increase
    the Bitrate under Advanced Button/Video Tab settings - without compromising the file size.
    Then you would upload that file to YouTube at the YouTube web site.
    All of the above are factors that need looking into in order to determine the why for what you wrote
    I have published a shortened advertisement video to YouTube- say 5 minutes-
    and it is low quality
    Often SD video upscaled to HD can present poorly. But, you are dealing with a HD workflow so that should not be introduced into the matter. The setup of the project and
    the properties of the source video are important, but let us start with the above and rule in or out those considerations first.
    Thank you. As always, any clarification needed, please do not hesitate to ask.
