I have downloaded adobe reader xi but cannot open my system is Windows 7 Home professional?

I have downloaded adobe reader xi but it will not open - my system is Windows 7 home professional?

Some 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)].
If you cannot open Reader by itself, try to disable Protected Mode in the registry; download, unzip, then run the attached registry script
It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

Cannot download Adobe Reader. Can't open any pdf files

Hi. I am using google chrome as my browser. i tried to download adobe reader. it downloads the .exe file. i try to run it and i save it. (after saying yes to security). But then it doesn't do anything and I can't download any Adobe products. My flash driver was also removed. I tried to install McAfee and it started doing this. Is there a conflict between McAfee and the Adobe reader?

Download the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
What is "flash driver"?

How do i make adobe reader my default to open any pdf file

how do i make adobe reader my default to open any pdf file?

What is your current default? If Adobe Acrobat (X or XI), you can set it in your preferences.
If it's another program, reinstalling or repairing Adobe Reader will set it to the default program.

Adobe Reader 8 will not open any pdf files.

I have a Mac OS X G5. I have Adobe Reader 8 installed. I cannot open any pdf files. It has never worked since installing it. I tried going to File> Open with> Adobe Reader> I get an error that says: the file could not be opened because the file is either not supported or it has been damaged (for example it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly coded). This error occurs no matter where I get the file; email or web page.
Any thoughts? Thanks.

I did get around this problem by trashing Reader 8 and confirming that I still had Reader 7.05 installed
This tip in the MacWorld forum worked for me:

I have downloaded the NUMBERS App, but cannot open it. Any ideas?

I bought an ipad2 yesterday and downloaded the NUMBERS App but cannot make it work. I cannot open it. Unfortunately I am not used to ipads so maybe I'm missing something.
HELP Please

Did you use the mac app store? If so, you downloaded it for a Mac.
If you downloaded from the iTunes application, or from the iPad itself, then on the iPad, go to the home page, and press the home button once to bring up search (you may have to press it again) Type in Numbers. Does anything come up?

After downloading Adobe Reader, my daughter cannot open her homework assignments on her school website?

After downloading Adobe Reader on our MacBook, my daughter can no longer open her homework assignments at her school website. When you click on the assignment it does not open. Everything else works on the computer. I deleted Adobe Reader and it still will not work. Did Adobe Reader delete something or replace something that I need to download again? Thanks, Carl

Try this -
In the Finder's Go menu select Go to Folder.
Type in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ and click Go.
In the resulting Finder window look for anything with PDF or pdf in the name and drag it to the trash.
Restart the computer.
Now try viewing the documents.

Adober Reader suddenly won't open any PDF files (Mac)

I had an old version, I downloaded the latest one, upgraded to the newest, even tried taking that one out and downloading an older version. It doesn't matter which version I seem to have, it won't open any pdf files from the web.
I use a Mac, and Safari. It used to always load PDF files fine, one random place said I had to update it so I did and since then, lately it'd crash and close all Safari windows when loading a PDF or trying to copy something from a PDF. The smart Mac message I have says it could be related to an Adobe Plug in. However, now it won't even load PDF files at all, it always goes to a white page. Nothing happens.
What do I do?? I can't even save the PDF's as individual files and view then in Preview as an alternative option. It's a link online and normally would work. What happened??
HELP!
I have a Mac OS X Version 10.5.8
I've always used Safari, it's Version 5.0.5 (5533.21.1 if that means anything).
Acrobat Reader, currently an old version 9.4.0 download. BUT, I had also the 10.0.1 version which also doesn't work. When I had that 10.0.1 version and checked for updates, there was an update (.3 I think?) and I did that and that also doesn't work!
Why did it suddenly stop working?
What can I do to fix it ASAP?
Only with 9.4.0 version I can go to Help and "Repair Adobe Reader Installation" - I click that and the only box I can select is "Adobe PDFViewer Safari Plugin - View, fill-in and collaborate on Adobe PDFs within Safari" - I click continue and it tells me there's "No missing components detected. Repairs are not needed." The only option is to click "OK".
With any newer version of Adobe Reader, under Help there is no option to "Repair Adobe Reader Installation". So... I can't even try that with a new version.
I am at a loss for solutions. Hope someone here can help! Thanks!

There are several things you can do. My first step would be to repair permissions. If that doesn't work log on as a different user. If all works properly then you have a corrupt preference file (most likely) or a corrupt user font installed in your user Library (less likely). If that doesn't work download Applejack. Have it repair the disk, remove all system caches and user caches. Then have it check all system and user preference files. Remove any preference files that are corrupt. Reboot and see if your system is working properly.

Adobe Reader XI will not open any PDF file

I have tried removing and reloading reader. I have also tried using the WIndows Control Panel to repair the Adobe file. Nothing has helped. I cannot open Adobe Reader XI directly from the programs folder. Nor will it open any PDF file when I double click the file. I am running WIndows XP.

Some other things to try...
Update to Reader version 11.0.5
Can you open Adobe Reader by itself? If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

Adobe Reader 9 will not open any pdf files

I am running Windows 7 and use Adobe Reder frequently. Never had a problem. Last week, whenver I try to open a PDF file, I get a warning box "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."
The only thng that changed recently was a couple large Windows updates... I am always suspect when a large update occurs. I uninstalled the Reader and Download Manager and ree-installed themm. No change in performance.
I checked the registry key - it looks correct based on other posts.
Does anyone have any suggestions what else to try??

I've got the same problem. I'll look forward to solving this on this thread.
It really sucks- I have a ton of pdf files, and can't save them to Documents or send them out of the Adobe file.

It sounds like you downloaded the wrong application, namely Adobe Premiere Elements.
If you meant Adobe Photoshop Elements, you're in the wrong forum. This is not the Elements forum.
Here's the link to the forum you want:
https://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop_elements/content
If you mean Photoshop proper, since you are posting in the Photoshop forum, give version details and your system specs.
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
Note that this is boilerplate text.
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.
