I have Adobe Reader X on Windows Vista. Why doesn't the Printer for Adobe PDF show up in my Hardware/printers? Or can I add it to the Hardware/Printers?

I have Adobe Reader X in Windows Vista. Why doesn't the Adobe PDF show up as a printer in my Hardware/Printers? Or can I add it to the Hardware/Printers? And how?

Adobe Reader - FREE - reads PDF files, prints them, fills forms.
Adobe Acrobat - $$ - as Reader, and makes PDFs and edits them, sorta, and does a bunch more.
So if you had Acrobat try and find the license to avoid having to pay again...

  • Adobe Reader XI et Windows Vista?

    Bonjour,
    Pourquoi la version française de Adobe Reader XI ne peut être installée avec le système Windows Vista, mais peut l'être sur Windows XP, poutant plus ancien?
    Merci!

    Vista does not support Reader XI or Acrobat XI; both products have not been tested/certified for Vista.
    Windows XP (SP3) is still very much used in the business community, but I expect the next version of Acrobat/Reader may no longer support XP either.

  • Why can't i download adobe reader  on my windows vista. Error message is invalid key

    I can not download Adobe reader. The installation begins, but then I get the message that the key is invalid. I don't know what means or how to correct it. How can I get a vaid key.

    That is a problem caused by Microsoft or one of their recent updates.  Here is the solution
    in the Windows Explorer address bar type %APPDATA%
    on the right-hand side double-click on the Microsoft folder
    now look for a folder named Crypto; delete it, or rename it to something like Crypto-old
    If you need more detailed help, tell us your Windows version.

  • When changing the default printer in windows vista why doesn't the default printer change in firefox (firefox was running when the default printer was changed)?

    I am not sure whether or not this is a bug or a feature, but I was running firefox on my laptop. I then went to add a new printer and set it as a default printer. When I went back to firefox to print, it did not automatically choose that new default printer as the printer of choice. I then had to choose the new printer manually to print to. This is merely a convenience issue but thought I would bring it to the attention of Mozilla in case.

    Hello bradleesargent
    as i can see the note in the kb article ([https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-print-websites#w_print-window-settings Print window settings]) ''The default printer is the Windows one. When a web page is printed with the selected printer, it becomes the new default printer.''
    do you have your previous printer also, or you uninstall the previous printer and then install the new one and make it default ?
    I think firefox must be closed when you set up a new printer. Do you have it open when set up the new printer ?
    thank you

  • When installing Adobe Photoshop CS3 on Windows Vista I get this error "Setup has encountered an erro

    When installing Adobe Photoshop CS3 on Windows Vista I get this error "Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Adobe Customer Support for assistance. Internal Error 2739" I have used the cleanup script included in Adobe Photoshop CS3 installer, and have removed all traces of Adobe apps including the beta versions and Acrobat 8 pro, and I still get the same error, how can I install this application? is there any way or do I have to reformat and reinstall windows?

    Hello everyone,
    I was having the same issue:
    "Setup Error. Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Adobe Customer Support for assistance. Quit."
    If you receive this error also, press Quit and follow these steps:
    1. Start
    2. Control Panel
    3. Administrative tools (in classical view)
    4. Event Viewer
    5. Application
    You will see something like this:
    Double-Click for error (emphasized by red color). I have an error like this:
    "Error 1327.Invalid Drive: E:\" if you have the same or e.g. Drive F:\ ir whatever letter, you should solve this problem extremely easy - just insert USB-flash into computer (it will launch as E\ or whatever disk) and than run installation again. It will work than.
    Setup doesnt start if disk is offline.

  • I have a ipod video and windows vista. computer locks up

    I have computer that is running windows vista 32-bit. Everytime I use itunes I keep getting error messages and I will get the blue screen and the computer restarts. I have updated to itunes 7.3 and my ipod has software version 1.2.1 on it. Any help? I have been running vista for over 3 months and no issue with any other software just itunes.

    I am not on a network. The I have a few usb things that are connected but they are only connected at the time I use them. I have a usb printer, tomtom, and a car computer that connects to the laptop. I only have the printer connected when I am printing, the tomtom is only connected when I am updating software, the car computer when I am tuning my car computer. Every time I connect to the ipod it is the only thing that is connected to the pc. I haven't had a problem with any other hardware/software then entire time until I bought the ipod and installed itunes. All the other software and hardware still doesn't give me any problems when I am printing, updating the tomtom, or tuning my car computer. The only problems are while I am using Itunes.

  • Error 1625 with Adobe Reader Update on Windows Server 2008 R2 OS

    For the last two months when I receive updates to Adobe Reader 9.3 I get Error 1625:  Update failed.  Update not permitted by system policy.   But there is no system policy since this is a stand-alone machine. 
    Windows Server 2008 R2 is equivalent to Windows 7 OS but has some special security features.  If I could manually download and run this update and by pass the Adobe automated install I might be able to fix the problem by running the update "as administrator" but I think Adobe doesn't give me that choice.
    I have uninstalled and re-installed Adobe Reader 9.3 but still get the same result when applying this update.  
    Adobe reader is working fine, so I would be happy also if Adobe just stopped trying to send me this update.
    Any suggestions?

    I did.  When I posted my last response ending in "did not work"  I had a dashed line and
    Adobe in there infinite wisdom interpreted that as an  end of message.   So here is the rest
    of my last post which was cut off:
    So I then tried ʇɐb ɹəuəllıʍ's  solution (the one above your suggestion) - downloading the updates to my desktop and applying them by hand.   That worked.  
    But this means I may need to download all future updates by hand for this computer.   It's great that ʇɐb ɹəuəllıʍ  posted links for these three updates above,  but I'm wondering how to easily automate getting download links for all future updates since I don't have access to the parent directory http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/.
    Please suggest a way I can install all future updates by hand without requesting a special link.  In particular, when you download an update using  Adobe Reader "search for updates", where is that update saved so perhaps I could run it by hand instead of the automated way.

  • For the last 3 or 4 versions of iTunes, and continuing in 11.05, the site recognizes that I have a 64 bit OS (Windows Vista) and downloads the 64 bit version of setup.

    For the last 3 or 4 versions of iTunes, and continuing in 11.05, the site recognizes that I have a 64 bit OS (Windows Vista) and downloads the 64 bit version of setup. Setup installs iTunes in the 32 bit application directory (Program Files x86) - it's not all that unusual to run a 32 bit app under a 64 bit OS - BUT whenever I connect any of my iPhones, I get an error message that say I cannot use the iPhone because the 64 bit version of iTunes is not installed.  The message then tells me to de-install iTunes and to install the 64 bit version.
    Like I say, the 64 bit Setup version is selected for me, and it runs error-free, but I seem to have no control or ability to force the installation of a 64 bit iTunes app.  And all the iPhones are inoperative with the 32 bit version I have.  I have another PC, which I have held at an earlier iTunes release. Although it's a notebook, it's identical in every other way (OS & installed utilities and apps) to the desktop that has developed the problem, and my iPhones work fine with it, although iTunes on it is at the earlier release, and I have no intention of upgrading that version until I understand and have corrected the problem.
    Any ideas or suggustions?
    Thanks.

    This iPhone cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64 bit version of iTunes.
    That usually indicates that your Apple Mobile Device Support has not installed. That's also what is being shown by the diagnostics (the driver is there but the application isn't).
    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • Windows 7- Adobe Reader X 10.1.4- "An Internal Error Occurred"-"Fatal Error, Adobe Failed to connect

    I downloaded Adobe Reader X 10.1.4  lately and I could not open any pdf file I have and gave a message, "An Internal Error Occurred. I tried to change it under the Program Features for updates and fixes  and re-started my computer. Then I tried to open again a pdf file and a message " Fatal Error", Adobe failed to connect to DDE Server. What do I need to do to fix this up? Is Adobe even aware of this?

    If all things fail and you are not getting a resolution to this. Delete the Windows 7 User profile.   C:\Windows\Users\<user name>
    Reboot, then recreate the user profile by logging on as the User.   You are not done yet.
    Logoff and log back as Administrator and go to Regedit and manually delete the user profile from the Registry.
    Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList\[SID]    look for the User name.bak
    Delete it.   Then reboot and go back and log on as the user.  That should fix it.

  • Adobe Reader X and Windows 7 Enterprise Memory Leak

    Hi I am using Adobe Reader X with Windows 7 enterprise when reading a 8000 page document when I do a search I notice that the memory on my machine starts to creep up typically 1Mb per search this will continue to rise to over 300Mb as the document is used until it reaches a point that it freezes the machine, The only way to recover is Ctrl-Alt-Delete and cancel the task. Has this been observed by other users?

    Good day,
    Could you provide some additional details about both the file and your system's configuration?
    What version of Adobe Reader X do you have installed? (Help > About Adobe Reader)
    If you haven't updated to 10.0.3, please do so and see if the issue persists.
    How was the PDF file you're searching created?  (File > Document Properties > What does the PDF Producer line say?)
    Are you experiencing this with multiple files?
    Have you installed SP1 for Windows 7?

    If the AX is working properly, it should not show up in your list of available networks (since it is "joined" to your router). Have you unplugged and replugged your AX? Unplugged and, after a minute, replugged your router? Do you have MAC address filtering enabled on your router? (if so, disable it to see if the AX works ... it will broadcast its MAC address to the router, and you can add it.) Is your firewall turned on? Turn it off and see if you can access Airtunes. You will have to open a port in your firewall if that is the case.
    The AX should have the same network name as your router the wireless tab. When it shows up, what name is it broadcasting?
