Installing Adobe Reader for Palm on Vista

I run as a standard account on Vista Ultimate. The installer needs admin privileges so that it can update c:\Program Files. As a result, the installer ran under my administrative account. When it shut down, updated the Hotsync conduit and restarted Hotsync, Hotsync was running under my admin account. This means that all Hotsync data ended up in the wrong user directory structure. Also, the conduit was looking in the wrong place for PDFs to be uploaded to the Palm. Restarting Hotsync under my standard account did not work - the Adobe Reader conduit did not show up in my Hotsync settings.
The solution was to change my standard account to have administrative privileges. I also installed Adobe Reader for Palm to a different directory, rather than under c:\Program Files - I am not sure this is required but has been recommended for other applications that are not Vista-compliant. The Hotsync conduits were properly updated this time but would not automatically restart - a manual restart was successful. I was then successfully able to sync PDFs.

  • Adobe Reader for Palm OS won't install

    When i try to install Adobe Reader for Palm OS from the disk that came with my new Palm T/X (or from the Adobe website) it acts like it's doing something but never actually installs. Help!!!

    The Adobe Reader 305 for PalmOS setup file contains an older version of InstallShield's SETUP.EXE. For several reasons this setup version might hang without showing any GUI:
    a. A running background application prevents the setup from continuing.
    b. The TEMP-folder contains a lot of files and/or subdirectories.
    ad a: Use the Windows Task manager to check how many background programs are running. You can temporarily prevent most startup-programs from running by holding both shift-keys immediately after logging into Windows XP.
    ad b: Delete the files and folders from your TEMP folder(s). To locate your personal TEMP folder: Use the windows start menu -> click on: Run.. -> Enter: %TEMP% and press enter. Also check the %WINDIR%\TEMP folder. Some files might be in use during deletion, this can be ignored safely.
    Reboot the computer after cleaning the TEMP folder(s), then try again running the setup program.

  • Adobe reader for palm issue

    I want to be able to read eBooks on my
    Palm Tungsten T5 running Palm OS Garnet v 5.4.5
    Palm Desktop 4.2.1 on Mac G5 OS 10.3.9
    also using iSync 1.5
    I've installed Adobe reader for Palm OS 3.05 on my Mac,
    and it's installed fine on my Palm T5.
    But, I've used the Adobe reader for Palm application on the Mac to add files to be transfered to the palm.
    The application asks me to press the HotSync button, which I do. The Palm carrys out the HotSync,
    but the pdf file is not transfered to the Palm.
    What could be going wrong?
    I've read on a previous thread
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1404460&#1404460
    that the problem might be caused by iSync,
    and that I need to transfer the AcroConduit from Disabled Conduits to Conduits.
    But there is no AcroConduit in either folder on my Mac...
    Is there another reader I could use to read eBooks on my Palm?
    G5   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    This should work without a hitch, but only if the AcroConduit is present in your active Conduits folder, here:
    Macintosh HD:Library:Application Support:Palm HotSync
    If you cannot find it on your machine, send a message to the address listed in my public profile, and I will reply with a copy of the AcroConduit which you can drag into your active Conduits folder.
    You could also go here to once again download, then install, the Adobe Reader for Palm OS package:

  • Isync conduit/adobe reader for palm issue

    I just got a Tunsten E2 for Christmas. I'm somewhat new to this PDA world, so perhaps I'm missing something obvious. I installed the software, installed Adobe Reader for Palm OS and performed a HotSync. I then tried importing a PDF file to my handheld with no trouble. Then I saw via the Palm website that I could sync using isync via the isync conduit 1.2 from apple. So I downloaded that and followed the instructions to install it. Now my addresses and calendars sync flawlessly, but I can't seem to get Adobe Reader for Palm to transfer any more PDF files.
    Has the isync conduit disabled a conduit for Adobe? Is there any way to fix this? Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thank you,
    J
    P.S. I'm using Hotsync manager 3.2.1 and Palm Desktop 4.2.1

    Michael,
    I've figured out what the problem is. When you install the isync conduit it removes any conduits that it feels it conflicts with. i.e. contacts, calendars, to do lists etc. It also, for some reason, removed the Adobe conduit named AcroConduit. I think this is a glitch in the isync conduit. Thankfully, the conflicting conduits that isync removes aren't deleted. They are simply put into a folder named "disabled conduits" located in the main "library" folder->"Application Support" -> "Palm HotSync", right next to the "Conduits" folder. So I just dragged the AcroConduit back to the "Conduits" folder and configured the conduit in HotSync Manager and, viola, all seems to be working fine... sort of.
    It seems that Apple's Address Book and iCal don't exactly sync picture perfect on the palm pilot. email addresses where phone numbers should be, some addresses not showing up at all, calendars not showing up in the correct headings such as personal, business, etc. Apple and Palm could do better.

  • Need help finding the desktop applc of Adobe Reader for Palm OS

    Either I'm going blind, or Adobe just failed to include a download link for that Adobe Reader desktop application that takes care of converting regular PDF files to PDB files. I
    Here is Adobe Reader for Palm OS page, there you'll find a link to download a Free AR for the Palm OS, which installs a PRC file in your Palm, but there is no mention of its counter part application for the desktop

    Thanks for your replies guys
    WN,  thanks for the suggestion. I had just tried it actually. And it's a great alternative. But after using the other one, I can't help but notice how slow it is in my Palm TX. I think I would prefer to get the benefit of compressing/converting the files to PDBs. But no one seems to know where to get that application. I checked in my TX CD and I didn't find it.
    If your TX installation CD does not "auto-run" and present you with a menu to install additional software (including Adobe Reader for Palm), you can find it on the disc using Windows Explorer at:
    Palm CD > Int_English >  Essential_software > Adobe Reader for Palm
    In that folder is the installation (.exe) file which you run on your desktop.  It installs the desktop app, and the .prc file gets installed to the quick installer during the process.
    FYI...this software is slow and clunky on the handheld.  The conversion process is imperfect, and particularly with files which I have produced myself using Acrobat Distiller (the part of Adobe Acrobat which lets you "print" to the distiller to create a .pdf file from anything),  it sometimes doesn't even work.
    The best .pdf viewer I have used on my handhelds is actually the upgraded version of Documents To Go, which handles native .pdf files pretty well.  No conversion needed, just drop the files into your SD card, or Hotsync with Documents To Go desktop.

    I want to install Adobe Reader for an attachment that I cannot open.  The Keychain comes up with password.  I forgot my password how do I retrieve it?

    You must back up all data before continuing, unless you've already done so. If you need to back up but can't log in, ask for instructions.
    If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    Otherwise*, boot into Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window opens.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
    *Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead these instructions.

  • Can't install Adobe Reader for Android on my Tablet

    Hi everyone,
    I purchased lately a Binatone HomeSurf Tablet running on Android. I wanted to install Adobe Reader on it. I downloaded it all right, but when I wanted to install it on the Tablet, I got the message "impossible to install Adobe Reader on this phone"
    Is there anything I can do to make Adobe Reader run on my tablet ?
    Thanks in advance,
    Eric, from Belgium...

    You are lucky you can download it. My problem with my C
    ruzMicro T301 Tablet PC running Android 2.2 is that
    Adobe's website doesn't appear to ackowledge my device at all. I cannot download apps from adobe's website, I have tried to download it to my computer then unpack it to my tablet via a USB hookup that was successfull however it wouldn't install and was missing the .apk file wich is needed to run the program. I have looked at several .pdf readers and found none that will install on my tablet including this one so i am wondering what the deal is? How hard is it to make a universal android .pdf reader?

    Adobe reader was an ancient program and probably not written for the larger screen of the T5.  Older programs like this assume the square 160 x 160 or 320 x 320 pixel size.

  • Palm T/X won't sync without re-installing Adobe Reader

    I am new to the Palm T/X. I have installed several Apps I need to my device, and have needed numerous hard resets. My T/X connection could never be found after a day or so when I try to sync. I started re-installing one App at a time and have found that if I re-install Adobe reader instead of doing a hard reset, all of my data stays intact, and my device is then found again. Anyone know what is causing this or how to resolve it? I am glad I don't have to go the hard reset route and lose my data, but reinstalling Adobe before every sync is a nuisance too!

    My Adobe reader doesn't identify any adobe pdf files, even though these r visible when I put the sd card in a card reader. I tried all these:
    1)Re-install adobe reader for Palm OS 3.5
    2)Re-install ereader for Palm OS
    3)Install PalmPDF
    4)Install Microsoft Active Sync on my PC
    5)Install Word and .xls documents on my SD card and successfully accessed the same on the Palm PDA (to confirm the SD card is detected by the PDA)
    6)Soft reset several times
    Anyone hv any idea why I am not able to read my .pdb files on the pda? Is there any solution anyone tried successfully.
    Do let me know if there is, or if there is any thread this has been discussed in.

  • I cannot install Adobe Reader 10.1.04 on my Windows Vista computer

    I've been unable to install Adobe Reader on my Windows Vista (SP1) 32-bit Toshiba laptop, and would really appreciate some help.
    Here's the error message I get:
    Error 1402. Could not open key: UNKNOWN\.api\AcroExch.Plugin\ShellNew. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
    Here's a brief history of what I've already tried:
    # 1 - Downloaded AdbeRdr1014_en_US.exe as a stand alone file multiple times from different servers and sites.
    # 2 - Uninstalled Adobe Reader 9.0
    # 3 - Ran AdbeArCleaner.exe multiple times to remove ANY perious verions of Acrobat and/or Reader.
    # 4 - Opened each of my 4 browsers, latest verions of IE, Opera, Firefox, and Chrome, searched for Plugins and/or Add Ons and removed ANY Adobe related apps except Flash.
    # 5 - Opened the Control Panel, Programs, searched for and removed ANY versions of Acro Quick Reader or Quick Writer.
    # 6 - Ran Norton Utilities Clean Registry multiple times.
    # 7 - When trying to install Reader 10.1.04 I had PREVIOUSLY received this error message:
    Error 1402.Could not open key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\AcroExch.Document\Shell\Open\Command. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
    However, after using Adobe Cleaning Tool, I no longer got this error.
    # 8 - I also disabled my A-V Program during all installation attempts, Kaspersky PURE 2.0.
    The reason that I wanted to update to Adobe Reader 10 was that Kaspersky did a vulnerability check which indicated:
    "Adobe Reader/Acrobat Multiple Vulnerabilities"
    See: http://www.securelist.com/en/advisories/47133/?function=advisories&VN=47133
    Solution was to update to version 10.1.2 (or higher).
    Now I can't open any .PDF files. I can't find the so-called Plugin which is causing the installation to stop. The installation of Reader 10.1.04 gets to around 96% complete, then fails and rolls back.
    # 9 - Is there an easy fix, such as a tool that will autyomatically remove any relevant registry key, or apply the correct administrative attributes to the registry keys? If not, can you please talk me through this step by step. I've never been so stumped or frustrated performing a software upgrade, what I thought would be a simple task.
    THANKS in advance for your help which is much appreciated.

    Hi Pat,
    I feel like I'm falling deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole, operating in an area in which I am totally unfamiliar. I know a great deal about computers, but that still leaves me ignorant about many other things.
    I had previously downloaded subinacl.msi in my research on Vista permissions and the inability to install Reader 10.1.04. In Vista, Windows Installer is a Service, not a program. I don't even understand what that means. I had previously tried changing the file extension of subinacl.msi to subinacl.exe but that didn't work. Then I looked for an EXE version of the file. No luck with that. Your pointing me to http://weblogs.asp.net/rternier/archive/2007/02/01/how-to-install-msi-files-on-vista.aspx was helpful up to a point. The post assumed I would know what to do with the bat file template:
    "C:\Windows\System32\msiExec.exe -i  C:\Users\rternier\Documents\Downloads\tfpt.msi"
    I changed it to the following:
    C:\Windows\System32\msiExec.exe -i  C:\Users\aecolkercpa\Downloads\subinacl.msi
    PLEASE NOTE: I store and run all downloaded installation files from the directory C:\Users\aecolkercpa\Downloads\
    Usually, after installing a program from an installation file I will delete the installation file, unless there is a problem installing the application. In that case, I save the installation file until the problem is resolved.
    Also, I am not sure if the first phrase in the BAT file I created is correct,
    C:\Windows\System32\msiExec.exe -i
    I called the file Install MSI.bat and ran as administrator.
    I clicked on Accept the warranty terms, and the msi file began to be installed. Then I got a blue screen error BAD_POOL_HEADER with lots of text messages on it. I had to reboot. When I rebooted, Windows asked if I wanted to search for a solution online to the shut down, and gave me this report:
    "Troubleshoot a problem with your antivirus software
    A problem related to your antivirus software caused your computer to shut down unexpectedly to protect itself from data corruption or loss.
    To try to solve this problem, follow these steps. One step might solve the problem, but if it doesn't, then go on to the next step.
    Update your antivirus software
    Missing antivirus software updates could be the cause of your computer's problem. To make sure your antivirus is up to date, follow these steps:
    Click to open Microsoft Security Center.
    Click Malware protection.
    If your software needs to be updated, click Update now.
    If Windows can detect your antivirus software, it will be listed under Virus protection.
    If your antivirus software is not displayed in Windows Security Center, go to the downloads section of your antivirus software provider’s website. Find the update for your version of the software and your operating system, and then install it. For more information, check the Help for your antivirus software.
    Most antivirus software updates are free, but some providers charge a small fee for the updates. If you're using an older version of the software, you might also have to pay to upgrade to a more recent version to continue to receive the updates.
    Check for multiple antivirus programs running on your computer
    Running two antivirus software programs on your computer at the same time is not recommended because the two programs can interfere with each other. Even if you don't think your computer could be running two antivirus programs, antivirus software can sometimes come bundled with your computer and it might be running without your knowledge. To check if two antivirus programs are running, follow these steps:
    Click the Start button , right-click Computer, and then click Manage.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    In the left pane, double-click Services and Applications, and then click Services.
    Look at the list of services under the Name column. If you find two antivirus programs, right-click each service associated with one of the programs, and then click Stop. Note that there may be multiple services running for one antivirus program.
    Contact the antivirus manufacturer
    If you've completed the previous steps, we recommend you contact the antivirus manufacturer directly for additional support."
    Since I was unsure how to parse the BAT file, it probably contained errors, which may be the reason behind the blue screen crash. Should I have moved the bat file and the subinacl.msi file to the Windows/System32 directory before running it? To a different location than the download directory?
    At this point I'm rather burned out. Perhaps 50+ hours of my time have gone into trying to install a simple program, Adobe Reader 10.1.04. I would love to succeed, but I think my lack of comprehension is making it even more difficult than it might otherwise be. Instead, I'm becoming more and more confused and frustrated by all these detours and additional issues.
    Is it possible Pat to arrange for you to have remote login access to my machine using Go to My PC or some other application, so that you can hands on accomplish in perhaps 5 minutes, what might take me 5 more weeks (or months) to get done?
    I feel we are close to solving this puzzle, but it keeps on slipping away.
    Please let me know your thoughts, and thanks as always for your help.
    Cheers,
    Joel

  • ADOBE reader for ipad won't install

    I had adobe reader on my ipad for at least a year. Have a subscription to the pdf to word doc conversion. Adobe pushed an update on Oct 9. I tried to install it a lot of times, but it always hanged. So today I have figured I will just delete the app and install it again. Well, that hasn't solved it either. The install also hangs. Is this a bug? I have an ipad 4, rocking iOS 8.1.

    Thank you for the video.
    The video shows the App Store app that is trying to download and install Adobe Reader for iOS.  Adobe Reader for iOS is not even launched at the point.  Once we (the Adobe Reader Mobile team) upload a new version of Adobe Reader to the App Store, Apple takes care of the installation & updates of the app (and all other iOS apps) for users.
    I just uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader for iOS version 11.6.3 on my iPad running iOS 8.1 but could not reproduce the problem.  I suspect that your iPad is in inconsistent state with regard to app updates.
    Here are a couple of things that you could try.
    Go to the iOS Settings > General > Usage > Managed Storage.
    If you see Adobe Reader, tap to go to the next screen.  This is to ensure that Adobe Reader is completely uninstalled from your iPad.  If you do not see Adobe Reader in the list, skip the rest of the steps.
    Tap Delete App to uninstall it.
    Go back to the App Store to download and install Adobe Reader again.
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    Since this is an Apple App Store problem, you would have a better chance of getting answers by asking the question in the Apple support forum.
    Welcome | Apple Support Communities
    Good luck.

    Any ideas? I know this Q & A was last year,  but maybe you might have found an answer for me, as I uninstalled my current version before I started, now I wish I had left it alone....but I was trying to fix another problem on Firefox, which said I had to re-install anything from Adobe, to see if it would fix my little problem, now I have a bigger problem!!
    The 1st problem was I cannot upload pics on Facebook, now I find I cannot upload a pic for Adobe, (on my profile page)!!!! I can still insert/upload a pic on Word, however....
    I do hope you might be able to help me, as I am a novice when it comes to fixing problems....
