Installation and Launch - Adobe Reader XI on Mac - No program window.

I've installed and re-installed Adobe Reader XI on my computer, and ensured that it was the Mac client each time, however upon launching the application from my applications folder, it starts the program, but the program does nothing. It appears active in my task bar, but it has no windows, and whenever I go to check; Adobe Reader, File, Edit, View, Window, & Help. All actions are greyed out and I'm left unable to do anything. I've been unable to come across reports of similar problems, and I do meet the system requirements in order for the application to function.
What do I do?

What happens when you attempt to open a PDF file in Adobe Reader like the PDF file in your Downloads folder named "About Downloads.pdf"? Just drag it on top of Adobe Reader and see what happens.

How do you launch adobe reader

How do you repair a .dmg file and launch adobe reader?

You shouldn't be running Reader from a DMG file.
You should ONLY run it from your Applications folder.

Hi,
I have exactly the same problem on one of my Macs (MBP 15 Mid-2010 / OS X Yosemite): Both reader and Acrobat Pro download without a hitch. Both also install with no problem.
But once you click the program to open, they both return "an internal error occurred".
I tried downloading three separate copies, and still get the same error message when I install and launch. I've also uninstalled the previous installations via CleanMyMac2 to make sure it's no longer in the SSD. Same results.
Am using a new SSD as internal boot drive, with fresh / clean installation of OS X and Apps (previous internal HDD crashed) -- And am seeing errors not only with Acrobat, but also with LR5 which always comes up with a "An error occurred when attempting to change modules" -- inspite or uninstall, download and reinstall. Not sure if it's a registry issue? (Not even sure if that's the case with OS X).
Do I need to reformat the whole SSD? I hope not!
Thanks
Edwin

Hi Tbeirne,
If you just want to save a pdf opened in Safari to your machine use the save as option from within the Reader plugin window. Just click on any of the buttons highlighted in below screenshots to Save a pdf at any location on your machine.
or
To summarize the issue, if you had opened an Internet PDF in a browser plug-in, you must use the save feature in the plug-in, not the Safari File > PDF Export, or File > Save As...
Please let us know if this solution works for you and you are able to save and view PDFs files locally.

Shashi

Can't view pdf; getting message to launch Adobe Reader and sign user agreement that I can't find.

I'm trying to view my son's 1098-T on his college's website, but keep getting the message "Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser."
When I launch Adobe Reader, I can't find a user agreement to accept. I have tried relaunching both Google Chrome and Adobe Reader several times to no avail. I've also redownloaded and tried to reinstall Adobe Reader, but it got a message it was already installed. I previously had problems getting the pdf to fill (the form was blank and didn't have my student's info), and reinstalled Adobe Reader before I realized I had to disable Google Chrome's pdf viewer, which I have since done.

Sorry. I have a Mac with OS X 10.9.5
I've since totally deleted Adobe Reader and reinstalled it but have the same problem anytime I try to view a PDF with Adobe Reader. The college website won't let me save the form, only view it. If I use another pdf viewer the form won't fill with my son's info; I think it has to be Adobe Reader for some reason

And... did you do what the message tells you?

Nothing to do with the download; you need to open Adobe Reader once after the install is complete, and accept the EULA.

Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must first launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser.

Using Google Chrome, when attempting to open a PDF document, the following message appears:
Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must first launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser.
On my Mac, there is no way to just open Adobe Reader and accept the ELUA.

Hi Wade Perkins,
Please refer cant view pdf in browser.
Thanks.

Just launch Adobe Reader. Assuming you are on a Mac, all apps are launched from Applications.

Initializing arises with the following information: to proceed, open your download folder and locate the Adobe reader installer file, named Adobe reader installer [ XXX].dmg
It takes me back to steps that have already taken of locating down load file double-click to mount the disk image; double-click install Adobe reader; agreed by clicking open; entering name and password and clicking okay.
Did this several times with no success.

How do I "Launch" Adobe Reader in order to accept the Terms and Conditions in order to view PDF documents? ....Somers I'm using a MAC with up to date software.

Launching is just the normal word in Apple's word for "run an app". You can launch an app from the Applications folder, or in recent versions of Mac OS using the LaunchPad (rocket icon). You can't assume all your apps appear on the dock (bottom strip), it's only the ones Apple put there or you added.

Keep receiving error to launch adobe reader and accept agreement

keep receiving error to launch adobe reader and accept agreement on a mac opening in safari

You need to do what the message says... to launch an app in Mac OS you go to the Applications folder and find the Adobe Reader icon. Double click on it. If there is more than one, click on each in turn, accept any agreements, quit.

I cannot install adobe reader into my mac this is the message it tells me to open license agreement and press ok.. and close it then reopen.. i've done this dozen times already

i cannot install adobe reader into my mac.. i get the message to open license agreement and select yes and click it closed

The free Rader does not require a license. Could it be that Mac OS is asking you for the password of your Mac? Or that you are required to launch Reader (open your Applications folder and doble click on the Reader icon) to accept the licence agreement? Please be as specific as you can.
