Installing Reader on Mac

I've downloaded Reader, but I can't get it installed and running

Hi, cowley373,
The Adobe Reader application gets installed inside the Adobe folder in your Applications folder.  Would it happen to be there?

  • Can't install "Reader" on Mac?

    Have tried three times to install Adobe Reader on my Mac.  Operating System OS-X 10.5 (Leapord).  I designate that I want to install on the harddrive but during the installation process it requests a disc and freezes the computer so that I have to Force Quit.  At one point I thought I might fool it by inserting blank disc but, of course, would not accept it.  Don't understand why it would want a disc of some sort when I designate the HD as target for installation.

    Please do not double post.

  • Adobe Reader 9/Mac OSX 10.5.4/Internal Error after installing

    Just purchased a new iMac with OSX 10.5.4 installed. I have 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM. Acrobat Reader v8.x won't run, so downloaded and installed v9 from the official Adobe web site. When I attempt to launch Acrobat Reader 9 I get the message "An internal error has occurred." I cannot go any further or do anything else. I've downloaded Reader 9 several times but the same problem keeps happening. I also purchased a new MacBook and Reader 9 installs and runs on that machine without any problems. Anyone have any idea why this might be happening on my iMac? Without Acrobat Reader it can really be a drag trying to work with PDF's.

     I was wrong on both counts. With the help of the local Apple store, I found a solution. First, I Moved to Trash all adobe related files/folders from /Users/*myaccount*/Library/Cache and /Users/*myaccount*/Library/Preferences. When I started "Adobe Reader 9", I at least got the license agreement but again it failed with an "internal error". I then moved the /Users/*myaccount*/Library/Application Support/Adobe folder to my desktop. I was then able to start "Adobe Reader 9" successfully.
    I was having the "Internal Error" message on all my repeated installs of Reader in Mac OS 10.6 ("Snow Leopard") and this fixed it for me. The only thing I did different, was after the app finally launched without an error, I dragged all the non-Acrobat Reader folders inside of /Users/*myaccount*/Library/Application Support/Adobe back to the folder. I then re-launched Reader just to check and all was fine.
    Thanks! This fixed my Adobe Reader on Snow Leopard problem.

    remove your caps database.  this shows the location for cs3.  make the obvious changes for cs5.

    You can extract pages with Adobe Acrobat, not Adobe Reader.

  • When downloading a pdf file I get a message that I must download Adobe Reader. When I do that I am told that it is already installed. Why can't I use it if it's already installed. I-Mac OsX 9.3

    I was able to fix the problem with some help from Apple. Whenever I last downloaded Reader, I apparently didn’t complete the process by accepting the Reader contract. I was able to go right to that point in the process and complete the installation. The messages that I needed Reader but it was already installed were quite confusing. It would have been nice if the Adobe installation process that I was re-trying this morning had been able to detect a partial installation. The Troubleshooting page almost had me doing some ridiculous things that wouldn’t have helped.

  • Installing & running adobe reader on Mac

    I installed Adobe reader on Mac OS X 10.7.5, using both Safari & Firefox, but it didn't work in either.  Adobe is there, but won't run. I had Adobe before but then it disappeared.  I downlaoded again in order to open pdf fillable forms. When I return to these pages, which I used in the past, it now says (in Safari) can't use this browser or run and relaunch (same browser I used before) or (in Firefox) I must agree to licensing agreement before use, which never pops up for me to agree to. Any suggestions?

    Try the installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

    Are you launching Pages from an icon in your Dock? Installing the update does not change the Dock icons & it does not remove the older versions. Go to your Applications folder & launch the new Pages from there.

  • Mac OS X cannot install on this computer read  install read me on the DVD ?

    Bought a used MacBook with a intel Core 2 Duo 2.2 Ghz with 2 gig memory and it came running leopard 10.05.1 on it already want to do a clean install of Leopard. DVD takes me to the point where i chose my language then i get this error saying Mac OS X cannot install on this computer read the install read me on the DVD
    Any suggestions ?

    If this is a retail copy of Mac OS X (not bundled with your mac), that may be the cause of your problem, especially if it was pre-installed with 10.5.1.
    As far as I know, but I may be wrong, there is no 10.5.1 retail DVD (only 10.5.0), this could mean your mac is newer than the retail OS X DVD (10.5.0), and you have no other choice that using your Leopard DVD bundled with your machine, because your machine may have some hardware bot handled by the retail 10.5 DVD.

  • Adobe creative cloud set up to install on a mac with parallels windows 8

    Unfortunately it is not possible to install the program it always displays an error message. how can you loess the problem?
    error message: This application can not be run from a network drive-. copy it to a local folder and strarten it again.

    I have just the regular version, not Professional.
    I mean "les integrated", in the sense that you really run Fusion "in a window". The more "integrated" approach means that Windows applications run as if they were for the Mac, and you do not see the Windows interface at all. I personnaly think tjat is too confusing. There is nothing wrong with it, just a bit more confusing. i like having it clear that Windows is in a seperate Window.

  • I have quicktime player 10 installed on my mac and it is considered the (default) player.  How can I get my Quicktime 7 Pro as my default player?

    I have quicktime player 10 installed on my mac and it is considered the (default) player.  How can I get my Quicktime 7 Pro as my default player?  When I downloaded video from my phone, I couldn't hear the sound because Quicktime player 10 automatically opened the file and there was no sound,  When I opened the file in quicktime 7 Pro, the audio was fine.  I would prefer to have all movie files open automatically using my Pro version.  Any suggestions?  When I trashed the QT player 10 and clicked on the .3g2 movie file, it didn't automatically open with QT 7 Pro.  Instead a window opened wanting to convert the file to Flash.  I don't want that to happen.

    Try This...
    Highlight the file you want Quicktime 7 Pro to open -
    Goto File > Get Info or (CMD I)
    In the Get Info window, scroll down to "Open with:"
    Select the player you want to open the music file.
    Click the "Change All..." button if you want to 
    "Use this application to open all documents like this.”
