I had to uninstall adobe reader 8.3 for windows vista

How can I reinstall an adobe reader to my laptop? I had to uninstall my 8.3 version because my reader got hacked and stopped working.

If you have the installer it should just work. If you do not have the installer it can be found on the Adobe ftp site. But you are better off installing Adobe Reader X which is much more secure. A llink can be found to the most recent on the Adobe home page.

Unable to uninstall adobe reader 8.16 on windows xp

I wanted to uninstal adobe reader 8 after finding I could use adobe reader 9, I uninstalled adobe reader and ended up having to restore my system after a server problem with the new software putting adobe 8 back. I tried to uninstall it again after switching off the machine for a while for the serer to recover, I still cant uninstall 8 even after installing adobe reader 9.

I tried on the day to navigate the adobe site on dial up, adobe should cater to people on a budget if they are going to service us with a free reader. Personally I would prefer another program to decode a pdf document that does just that - without all the other stuff I will never use. Today I found I may be able to uninstall adobe 8 by running kb404307, I couldn't even find a download page for the fix. Once again I got frustrated with my pc and adobe.

I downloaded adobe Reader XI sucessfully for Windows but I cannot open pdfs.
Any suggestions?

I am able to open them now, but I have to open the program first and then open the file through that. This doesn't make sense why I can't just open by clicking on the file.

Adobe ps printer driver for windows vista. Where can I get it?

I need Adobe ps printer driver for windows vista. Where can i get it? Plz help me. If yes, then where and if no, why?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks.

The Acrobat printer produces a PS file that is then sent to the Distiller process to create a PDF. The other PPD you mention is something I know nothing about. However, why would you want to use a different driver? The Adobe PDF driver is optimized for use in creating PDF files and other routes may not produce as good of a result. If the other PPD produces a PDF, then why are you asking about the Adobe driver?

Where do I get Adobe Reader Desktop version for Windows 8?

Since I went to Windows 8, every time I look at a PDF file it seems to use the Adobe Reader Touch app. That may be fine for a tablet, but I need and want the desktop functionality of the old Adobe reader on my notebook machine. What version of Adobe Reader do I need to download to get that and still have it run with no problems under the desktop on Windows 8?

Download Adobe Reader XI for desktop. Works perfectly.

No puedo instalar Adobe Reader 9.4 en Windows Vista

Hola: Un placer para mí visitar este foro por primera vez. Esto es para manifestar un problema que me ha surgido en el momento de instalar Adobe Reader 9.4 en mi PC, con el sistema operativo Windows Vista. El problema comienza de la siguiente manera: La instalación se realiza con normalidad hasta llegado a un punto, concretamente en donde dice "...esto llevará unos minutos"; justamente ahí se interrumpe la instalación y sale un mensaje que dice: "No se puede abrir la clave HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\CLSID\...\TypLib". Busqué información en algunos sitios, para tratar de solucionar este asunto, pero no encontré nada, solamente en un sitio encontré como solución que, en el caso de tener instalado el programa Quick Time, que lo desinstalara y con esto se solucionaría el problema. Así lo hice, pero nada, traté de instalar nuevamente el Adobe Reader 9.4, pero en el mismo punto volvió a aparecer el problema.
Les ruego me presten una pequeña ayuda, si les es posible, para solucionar esto.
Sin otro particular les queda muy agradecido y les saluda atentamente.

Adobe Reader install error on Windows Vista :(

I get this error for w/e reason.

And how can I uninstall it from a Creative Suite ??
And how can I install then the next full version "directly"??
And I don't really understand.
Adobe Updater cannot install this update, and tries it again after a month, it is downloading this update once in a month, and when it fails, closes itself, and says sorry, see you later in november? And when it fails, I cannot say, please stop bugging me with this.
Almost the same problem with the Adobe Media Player, which cannot play even the files advertised in its own browser, : adobe trainings from adobe related sites, and cannot update itself. It's almost brutal. How does this happen?

try using this uninstaller.
if that doesn't work, maybe you should try a different browser.
http://filehippo.com/download_firefox/
you'll get a 2nd flash install for this.
when you go to control panel>programs and features,
you'll see 2 separate entries for flash.
1 is for internet explorer, the other is for firefox.
maybe the 2nd flash will work.

Cannot uninstall Adobe Reader 7.0.8...keep getting "Error 1402" message..

Hello. I use Windows XP Home Edition. I am trying to uninstall Adobe Reader 7.0.8 so I can then install version 9, but I am not able to uninstall 7.0.8. During the uninstallation process, I get the following error message:
*****Error 1402. Could not open key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\CLSID\{C523F39 F-9C83-11D3-9094-00104BD0D535}\Programmable.
Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.*****
I went to another forum and asked for some help there...the guy there gave me some steps to follow, and I did so. Here they are:
1. Deleted "Adobe Reader Speed Launch" shortcut from Startup folder.
2. Deleted the Adobe folder (which contained 2 other folders: Acrobat 6.0 and Acrobat 7.0) from C:\My Computer\Local Disk\Program Files. I had to use a separate program (provided by my helper who gave me these steps to follow) called "Unlocker" to accomplish this, since, originally, when I tried to delete this Adobe folder, I would get a message saying "Cannot delete pdfshell.dll: Access is denied. Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use." Unlocker solved this problem, and was able to delete the Adobe folder.
3. Rebooted machine
4. Ran CCleaner's registry cleaner
5. Rebooted machine again
6. Tried using CCleaner's "Uninstall" utility to uninstall Adobe Reader 7.0.8. When I tried this, I got the same "Error 1402" message as listed above.
7. Backed-up my registry
8. Tried to just delete this particular offending key using RegEdit...but when I tried, I got a message saying this:
*****ERROR DELETING KEY
Cannot delete Programmable: Error while deleting key.*****
I really need some assistance with this...at the moment, Adobe Reader 7.0.8 still seems to be installed on my machine (it's still listed in "Add/Remove Programs" in the Control Panel, and it still shows up in CCleaner's Uninstall Utility)...despite the fact that, as I mentioned above, I used Unlocker to delete the Adobe folder from Program Files. Also, at this moment, no pdf files will open on my machine...so this is quite an urgent situation. Does anyone know what else I should do now? Is there something I need to do regarding the "Permissions" for this particular registry key?
I appreciate anyone's assistance...thanks.

Hi..I went ahead and ran the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility. I used it to remove "Adobe Reader 7.0.8." After doing this, I checked in "Add/Remove Programs" in the Control Panel to make sure that AR 7.0.8 was gone, and it thankfully was. Then I deleted the WICU, ran CCleaner's registry cleaner, rebooted, and tried to install Adobe Reader 9.0. When I tried this, I got the following error message (this occurred during the time when the installer was "writing system registry values"):
*****ADOBE READER 9 INSTALLER INFORMATION
Error 1402. Could not open key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\CLSID\{C523F39 F-9C83-11D3-9094-00104BD0D535}\ProgID.
Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.*****
What should I do now? Do I need to do something about the "permissions" for this key?
Thanks to anyone with advice...

Uninstalled Adobe Reader 11.0.0

For Adobe
I have an iMac with OS 10.8.5 and I'm using Safari web browser. After I had INSTALLED Adobe Reader 11.0.0 I have experienced problems on several web sites where either side can not be displayed or may not be printed. Since I also have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro and use it without problems on another iMac I decided to uninstalled Adobe Reader 11.0.0. I have moved it to the trash. I have emptied the trash and I have restarted the iMac. I've set Acrobat 9 Pro to be the program to use when loading web sites and I have reset Safari. Nevertheless, getting the message Adobe Reader blocked on this site.
When I go into Safarie, settings, security, manage site settings appears Adobe Reader 11.0.0 still in the list of Internet accessories.
I think that there still must be something on my iMac? How do I get it thrown out?

Try this:
Go to Mac HD/Library/Internet Plugins
Locate the AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin files.
Copy them to a flash drive or other removable media, and remove that media so it cannot be accessed by OS X.
Trash the original files from that folder.
Empty the trash.
Relaunch Safari and see if it helps with PDFs.
Open Acrobat 9 and see if it still works as it did.
IF both work, you can "dump" the plugins from the removable media.

How do I prevent Adobe from taking my jpegs and making them pdf files? I have had to uninstall Adobe to access my photos as jpegs.

How do I prevent Adobe from taking my jpegs and making them pdf files? I have had to uninstall Adobe to access my photos as jpegs.

I would suggest you change your file associations so that jpgs open in a program other than Acrobat. Assuming you have a Windows machine, just go to the Start, and search for "file associations" ... it's part of the Control Panel.
Scroll down to the file type jpg, and set it to open with whatever graphic preview or editing program you have that you want to use as the default. From that point on, when you click on a jpg, it should not open Acrobat and instantly try to convert it to a pdf.

Can't update or uninstall Adobe Reader 9 on Windows 7

I keep getting a message to update Adobe Reader, but when I try I get a message:
'Adobe uninstall update failed could not open hkey-local-machine\software\microsoft\windows\current version\run\optionalcomponants\imail'
I tried also uninstalling it through the control panel. Shows it uninstalling with a progress bar and then the same error message pops up and the progress bar goes in reverse till finally there is no uninstalling of the Adobe Reader.
Is there some other way to uninstall and reinstall Abobe Reader? Are there instructions available somewhere to uninstall Adobe Reader manually which include the registry keys to unistall for Adobe Reader 9? I have seen step by step instructions for earlier versions, but I don't know if those would be the same for later versions like Adobe Reader 9.

Can you please try the following:
1. Download Microsoft's SubinACL tool from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e8ba3e56-d8fe -4a91-93cf-ed6985e3927b&displaylang=en
2. Install the same by double clicking on the "subinacl.msi" just downloaded.
3. Open Command Prompt window through the Run Dialog Box (Vista/Win7Start -> type "cmd". In the section above you should be able to see a command.exe. Right click on the same and select Run As Administrator)
4. In the Command Prompt window, type in the following commands:
i. cd /d "%ProgramFiles%\Windows Resource Kits\Tools" (Hit Enter)
ii. subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\OptionalComponents /grant=administrators=f /grant=SYSTEM=f /grant=USERS=f /grant="Creator Owner"=f (Hit Enter)
Try updating Reader now, it should work.
