I can't download new version of adobe reader to my MacBook Pro.  Please help?

I can't download a newer version of adobe reader to my MacBook Pro.  What can I do? 

No, sorry, that's not how forums work. We are just ordinary people, not employed by Adobe (and Adobe won't help, because it's free software).
Step 1. Try to get the file you want on screen. I expect you to see the message "If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document"
Step 2. Understand you are looking at a page of a file, even though it looks like an error message. It is in a window, right?
Step 3. Move your mouse towards the bottom of the window. Stop moving the mouse. A little bar should appear with four buttons.
Step 4. Click the fourth button.
Step 5. Open FINDER.
Step 6. Open Downloads from your left bar.
Step 7. Find the file you just downloaded.
Step 8. Double click on that file to open it.
Please do not skip anything, just because you don't understand it. Instead, let us know.
If these instructions let you down, please let us know (a) on which step, and (b) what actually happens instead of what I said.

    The Hardware Test detected a RAM problem.  Take out the chips and make certain that the connections are clean and reinstall them.  Make certain that they are well seated. 
    If the problem occurs again, test with one chip at a time.  Also swap bays if necessary.
    Please indicate if you have installed new RAM and if so what brand and the specifications.
    Ciao.

  • Can I download two versions of Adobe Reader on my machine?

    I need both versions 9 and XI for work-related projects. Is there a way to keep both downloaded on my machine and then pick which version to use to open PDFs? I am frustrated that I have to keep re-downloading the versions I need. Please advise best way to go about this. Thank you!

    Hello,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    You can have Adobe Reader 9 and Adobe Reader XI downloaded on your machine. (You can keep setup.exe files) but you can't use 2 versions of Adobe reader on your computer as newer version removes the older version.
    Thanks,
    Vikram

    Since i ve downloaded ios6 ( the new version), I had trouble starting apps, I started an app and then it just closed and i was back on my homepage. I also can t download new apps or update them.
    Somebody please help me!

    From Apple Support...
    Here are troubleshooting steps that should help you fix the problem.
    1) Quit App Store in multi-tasking.
    2) Tap Settings.
    3) Tap Safari.
    4) Tap Clear History.
    5) Tap the Clear History button.
    6) Tap Clear Cookies and Data.
    7) Tap the Clear Cookies and Data button.
    Try purchasing an app again from the device to get the security question prompt. You really need to set up the security question.
    ...it seems to have worked for me.....

  • Can't download new Version of Adobe Flash player.

    I keep getting a message "Blocked Plug-in" anytime I download a video.  Then a screen tells me to download an updated version from the Adobe website.  But after pushing download button the download does not work.  What can I do to get this problem corrected?  Do I need to turn off my antivirus software?

    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:
    When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
    If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.

  • My Iomega external HDD can no longer be read by my Macbook Pro *Please Help*

    The day before my problem began my external was working fine then the next day I plugged it into my mac and now it can't be read. I get a message that says it can't be read with the options to eject, ignore, and initialize. When I click initialize it sends me to disk utility where I see the HDD but it doesn't say Iomega like it usually does instead it says External Raid Media. To make things worse it says it's not partitioned. I can't even verify or repair disk because the options are greyed out. I tried restarting, opening it up to see if it was a physical problem. I don't know what to do any assistance will be appreciated.

    Do a reset.. power off the TC..
    Hold in reset and power on.. keep holding in reset until it flashes rapidly.. if it turns on at all.
    If you bought it in June.. take it back today.. it is broken.. at a guess.
    Some Gen4 are failing this way.. get Apple to replace it.. even if it is a few days out of warranty it won't be much.

  • I was prompted to download the new version of Adobe Reader XI 10.0.03. I now cannot open it

    I was prompted to download the new version of Adobe Reader XI 10.0.03. I now cannot open any document. I have never had trouble before. It gives me an error message: “Adobe Reader cannot open in protected mode due to an incompatability with your system configuration.  Would you like to open Adobe reader with protected mode disabled.” I tried a number of things including clicking on the first and last options the prompt gives.  Help!

    Three things to try...
    Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

  • I have a new version of adobe reader for android on my tablet now i cannot delete files

    I have a new version of adobe reader for android on my tablet. Now there is no delete tab to get rid of old files

    Sorry, I was asking about the version of your Android operating system.  But if your PDF documents are not stored on an SD card, it does not matter which Android version you have.
    To permanently delete a PDF document from your Android device using Adobe Reader,
    In the Reader home screen, tap Documents in the left pane.
    Long press (press & hold) the PDF document that you want to delete.
    Tap the trash can icon in the top toolbar.
    Please note that there is no Undo for the Delete operation.
    If you have many files that you want to delete, it would be easier to download and install a File Manager app and delete files at once.

  • Designer form prompts Reader X error:"This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe Reader"

    I have a PDF form that was created using LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2. PDF version 1.6, so it's good for Reader 7.x and above.
    When someone using Adobe Reader X tries to open the form, they get this javascript error message:
    "This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe Reader. Without a newer version, the form may be displayed, but it might not work properly. Some form elements might not be visible at all. In an internet connection is available, clicking OK will download and install the latest version."
    Is there anything I can do to the form that would make this error message go away? Is this a know issue with Adobe Reader X or Designer?

    Is there any code running on the form?
    Reader X has come out with additional security features that must be disabled to get any PDF form w/code to work.
    Open Adobe Reader X --> click on Edit --> Preferences.  Under the General Category, uncheck "Enable Protected Mode at startup" (last checkbox in the dialog box).  Click OK and try to open your form.

  • PDF Form Requires a newer version of Adobe Reader

    New at this...Created my form in Live Cycle 8.0/Professional 8. Throughout company we are using Acrobat Reader 7.0 and are not at this time looking to upgrade. When our users open this form, get "This PDF form requires a newer version of Adobe Reader..." and prompts them to upgrade. Is there anyway I can get rid of this message...a way to make my form know that users will be opening in 7.0 and accept without error?
    Also, I'm not able to get the Submit to Email button to work...getting "This operation is not permitted"...how can I fix?
    Funny thing is I had been able to get the e-mail button to work at one time, but now, all of the sudden, it doesn't want to work...even on my machine which has Live Cycle/Professional 8 loaded?????
    Thanks!

    Geo,
    Thanks for the quick response. Tried and received: "This PDF document contains an Adobe XML form. Such files cannot be optimized.
    Help...thanks again

  • How do I launch a new version of Adobe Reader?  lay-man's terms, please!

    How do I launch a new version of Adobe Reader?  Where to I find it to do that?  Lay-man's terms please!

    If you have the application then it is in your Applications folder. Locate it then double-click on the icon. It's that easy. If you need to download it, then go here: Adobe Reader 11.0.09. The download will be a disc image file - has an extension of ".dmg." Normally, the download is in your Downloads folder or on your Desktop. Locate the .dmg file and double-click on it to mount the image on your Desktop. There will be an installer inside the mounted disc image. Double-click on the installer and follow the directions to install it on your computer.
