INVALID PLUG IN

my adobe reader always worked
now I get "invalid plugin detected"
I am new at this.iam unaware of any changes to the operation of my computer
What now?

Assuming you are on a Windows OS box, check the folder: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\plug_ins
There were other discussions that referenced the *.api files here. I did not have any of the files that those discussions referenced.  So I decied to eliminate the files by date starting with oldest ones. I found one that was dated as of March 2007.  Not sure how it got there but I removed it and things worked fine afterwards.
Note that you will need to move the files out of the "plug_ins" folder - putting them into a sub-folder does not work.
Hope this helps.

  • Invalid Plug ins

    I cannot open PDF files-- or Adobe Reader itself-- because I immediately  receive a message "Invalid plug-ins Adobe Reader will close", which it  does immediately.  I unistalled Reader and reinstalled it but still  there seems to be an invalid plug-in.  I have the latest version of  Reader.

    Use the forum for Adobe Reader.

  • Invalid Plug In causes Adobe to Close

    I have used Adobe 7.* and prior for years. I down loaded the latest version of Adobe, I think 8.1.2, and am unable to open PDF files with it.
    I get the following message:
    "An invalid plug in was detected. Adobe Reader will close.. I hit OK. Then I get another message (no error number) which says:
    "A0d.exe" seems to be the file menu which says:
    "The instruction at 0x2d830cbc references memory at 0X00000008 The memory could not be read. Click OK to terminate"
    So I close it and am unable to read the PDF attachment.
    Pleas advise.

    HI! You guy have solved the exact problem I'm having with Adobe Reader 8.1.2. I have installed and uninstalled 8.1 and 8.1.2 because of "Invalid plug-in detected" and then the same error message 00000008 click to terminate.
    Now, HOW CAN I GET ADOBE READER 7.0.9 BACK AND REINSTALL IT.
    Thanks for your help. Eileen

  • Invalid plug in 9.3.3

    Hi, co
    mputer dummy here but I have always had Adobe reader and it has always worked promptly and completely without fuss however now whenever i try to open a PDF now with the latest version it just comes up with a message invalid plug in. Adobe will now close, or words to that affect.
    I have removed the program several times and reloaded, I have tried to follow instructions without success. It is very annoying, I am not even sure how to download the old program that worked. operating system is windows 7. Any assistance would be appreciated.

    I have put up a technical note on some of these issues:

  • Invalid Plug In Detected

    I just upgraded to 8.1 and now I keep getting this error, "Invalid Plug In Detected". What does this mean and is there any thing I can do to fix this?

    You could just go to the plug-in folder and move plug ins, one at a time to another location so that Acrobat will not find them. You could also start be moving all plug ins to another location and doing the reverse of putting them back. I am not sure if plug ins are registered or not, that might be the only issue with my suggestion.
    Actually, if you have a date after which you had problems start, you might just concentrate on the plug ins listed after that date.

  • Invalid Plug in found

    I have out ed and reinstalled Reader several times but keep getting the error Invalid Plugin Detected. Any ideas on how to correct this issue?

    cool, after 1 month+ of waiting, finally the parts have arrived.

  • Sticky proposal: Logic Pro (first draft)

    Ok, here's a first draft of the proposed sticky for this forum. After looking at what we had, I decided to basically do it in four parts - introductory stuff (please post version numbers etc), problem solvers, tips, and audio general stuff.
    I'm not making this a work of art, but value feedback in order to make this useful before we ask the mods for a sticky. It's not complete, such a task is a much bigger job, but it's a start. What's not there? What's confusing? Is it too much stuff? Too newbie unfriendly?
    When we are happy I will probably style/format it a little better as well.
    Lemme know - cheers,
    This is a compilation of Logic tips, useful threads and information for Logic Pro users, compiled mostly by Eriksimon (thanks!) with additional contributions from Bee Jay and (final forum member list to be completed)
    - Getting the best help from the Apple Logic Pro Discussions
    This forum is intended to be a user-to-user support form to users of Logic Pro.
    Please keep your posts on the topic of Logic Pro, or you risk your post being removed for being off-topic. There are plenty of other general audio and recording forums better suited for asking general audio questions.
    Questions about third-party software and hardware are welcome as long as they relate directly to using these products in conjunction with Logic.
    This forum is dedicated to the post-Apple versions of Logic, which means questions for Logic Pro 7, Logic Pro 8, and Logic Pro 9 are welcome. However, please include the version of Logic you are using, in order to give useful advice (as things change between versions.) Better still, put your Logic versions and system information in your signature, to save having to ask for it.
    If you are a user of Logic Express, you should post in the Logic Express forum, rather than the Logic Pro forum, in order to get advice suited to your particular software version (as some things are different between Logic Express and Logic Pro).
    Remember that many questions, especially if you are new to Logic, have been asked multiple times before, so it's good practice to use the Discussions Search feature in the top right of the page to search for previous discussions relating to your issue. You will find a wealth of information. Often you can find a solution to your question without needing to post and have someone type out a response they've already typed out hundreds of times before - or worse yet, have your question ignored.
    Please be respectful of the members on the board at all times - we are happy to help people out, but do so in our own free time and don't have a duty to do so.
    Posts discussing non-Logic related items, off-topic or controversial subjects, abusive posts and harsh language are not welcome and will likely be removed, as will posts discussing illegal software. Please read the Terms of Use of this board for more info at:
    This post is a user-contributed compilation of links to content on this forum, official Apple documentation, and occasionally some other outside content where useful to Logic users. It is not in itself an official Apple document, and Apple do not take responsibility for it's content. It is not intended to be complete or comprehensive, just a helpful start for common issues.

  • Failed Quicktime Error -2045

    FCP X and Compressor 4 will no longer generate a movie file when I submit it.  I cannot get a movie to generate from FCP X either.  Instead, I get an error after submitting that says Failed: QuickTime Error: -2045. 
    I have uninstall and reinstall FCP X, Compressor and Motion.  Until Saturday I was able to generate movies without a problem. 
    Does anyone know what this error means and how I can correct? 

    I found my answer for this.  Not sure if it will help everyone, but I was getting Failed with a zero code and with -2045 code.  I did the uninstall and reinstall of FCP X and Compressor to no avail.  But I also was running FX Factory from Noise Industries.  When I deleted it (have to use the Uninstall Button on their menu and not just drag it to trash bin) then my error went away. It seems that one of the filters it put in added an invalid plug in to Quicktime and that was causing the error.
    The Apple help guy had me create a new user account and run the same routine there.  Since I had no error on the new user, the logic was that it was a plug in issue for my main account.  So once I uninstalled the FX Factory app and its plug ins, then I was back in business.  I am going to try to reinstall FX Factory later to see if I can get my Phyx filters back, but at least I am transcoding movie files again.

  • Queries around Adobe Reader Plugins

    Hi,
    I'm in the process of developing a plugin for adobe reader and was wondering if someone could help me clear the following doubts before I go ahead:
    1. I want to add a new menu item to the Adobe Reader interface and launch another application when this menu item is clicked. Is this possible? Or are there any API restrictions?
    2. If my plugin is going to be used within an organization, do I need separate keys for each employee? Is a key required per plugin or is it required per instance of the plugin?
    3. What happens when the key expires? Do I get another key? Or is the same key renewed? Basically, I need to know if I will have to recompile and reinstall the plugin every time the key expires

    Hi NiceNix,
    Thanks for a quick reply and Solution. Yes their might be possibility of Key Getting corrupted. But before that i just need to make sure if I followed the correct steps while building the Reader Enable Plugin.
    I have tried a BasicPlugin sample that there in the Adobe 8 SDK. Following are the steps I followed while developing a reader unable plug in. Can you please verify if the steps are correct?
    1.In the sources folder of the sample I copied the Dummy.rc file and the Digital certificate file received from Adobe
    2.Open the project in VS 2005, Added the existing rc files in the project
    3.Build the Project
    4.Run the Makemd32.exe specifying the plug-in name, path of key pair file and the digest file I need to generate (msgdig.rc)
    5.In the resource view of the project , open the data portion of Dummy.rc file and replaced its API Encrypted data with the one from the msgdig file
    6.Build the project ( Not rebuild All)
    After following these steps I put the api file into the Plug-in folder of Adobe 8.0. Now, Whenever I open the Reader it gives a message saying Invalid Plug-in. Adobe will quit.
    Also, I tired the BasciPlugin sample from Adobe 9 SDK and followed the same steps as above. Here it does not give the error but my Plug-in is not seen in any top menus of Reader.
    Please let me know if I am missing out something.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • I cannot open pdf files in safari.  It tells me first character is invalid.  I have deleted plug-ins and reinstalled program.  HELP

    cannot open PDF files in safari.  It tells me first character is invalid - I have deleted plug-ins and reinstalled the program.

    HI..
    If you are using Adobe Reader ...
    Try uninstalling the current copy of Adobe Reader first.
    Best to use a utility to do this to make sure all the associated files are removed as well >  Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
    Then reinstall >  http://get.adobe.com/reader/
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.

  • 9i and RealServer8 - invalid library for plug-in

    We've been trying for some time now to get Oracle9i and Realserver8 to talk to one another to run the streaming video sample code.
    Our Oracle server runs under Solaris 8 and having tried (and failed) with RealServer on a Windows2000 box, we tried installing RealServer alongside the database on the same machine.
    We've installed the Oracle interMedia plug-in but when we start up RealServer we get the message that liborclfs.so (the plug-in) is not a valid library.
    Is the plug-in compatible with this configuration? If not, is there an updated plug-in available/planned?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Brian

    The plugin does work with RealServer 8. The invalid library message occurs when the RealServer loads
    the Oracle plugin and tries to locate/resolve all the libraries that the plugin needs. If a library can't be located then
    the invalid message is emitted.
    I can think of two reasons why you might see this. The first is that the path variables are not set correctly for the
    environment of the RealServer process. On Solaris, the LD_LIBRARY_PATH must contain ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib and
    PATH must contain ${ORACLE_HOME}/bin. On Windows. the path must contain %ORACLE_HOME%\bin.
    On Solaris, go to the plugins directory and type `ldd liborclfs.so`. This will list the dynamic dependencis for the plugin.
    If any of the dependecies can not be found/resolved, it will list a not found message.
    The second reason is that, on Solaris, the version 8 plugin has a dependency on libclntsh.so.8.0, this library will
    not be found in the lib directory of an Oracle 9i client install. To fix this, simply go to ${ORACLE_HOME}\lib and
    create a new symbolic link to point to the version 9 library: `ln -s libclntsh.so.9.0 libclntsh.so.8.0`
    This problem may also exist for Windows. I'll check and post an answer.

  • Adobe Reader Plug-in shows error 'Invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit.'

    I followed all the steps provided in the development guide. Still it shows this error. Please provide any help!

    No Luck
    We received the 'RIKLA-DigCert.rc' file along with 'T&C of Adobe' file. I followed the following steps as provided by Adobe's Developer's guide:
    After receiving the digital certificate, enable the plug-in for Adobe Reader, by performing the following tasks:
    1.Make a copy of dummy.rc and put it in your project directory.
    2.Open your plug-in project in Visual Studio. Make sure you are in Resource View.
    Adobe Acrobat SDK Creating an Adobe Reader Plug-In
    Developing Plug-ins and Applications Creating resource files on the UNIX platform 248
    3.Open dummy.rc from your project directory. Copy the API_ENCRYPTED_DIGEST data segment (a dummy encrypted digest) to the resource portion of your plug-in.
    4.Open the digital certificate file returned to you by Adobe. Copy the API_DIGITAL_CERTIFICATE data segment (your digital certificate) to the resource portion of your plug-in.
    5.Rebuild your plug-in. The plug-in will be created with the correct API_DIGITAL_CERTIFICATE data segment and a dummy API_ENCRYPTED_DIGEST data segment, which will be replaced with real data in the next steps.
    But the problem is, when I open ''RIKLA-DigCert.rc' file, I got only ' 
    API_DIGITAL_CERTIFICATE' inside but no'API_ENCRYPTED_DIGEST' as shown in Step-3. How do I get that? Also, we have already created Acrobat Plugin file which has got our project resource file (.rc). How do I use the same plugin for Adobe Reader as well? Is there any step missing? please provide any help as this is stopping our progress even after getting the License. Thanks in advance!  

  • ITunes installation error - no C-drive, invalid C-drive, or specified path too long

    This is an answer rather than a question as answer to a previous question seemed unresolved and I had similar problem which I have resolved. I thought posting it might help others...
    My OS System disk wasn't set as the C-drive (how or why I'm not sure, but I have several OS installations and 2 hard-drives and must be a result of the way I installed these). And so I had no C-drive at all (except when I plugged in USB Pen's they would appear as C-drive).
    iTunes wouldn't let me install unless I had a C-drive - probably said I had an invalid C-drive or something. So I tried creating a virtual C-drive by mapping the C: drive letter to a new empty folder on my system disk (G-drive) to "C:". See - http://ask-leo.com/i_have_no_c_drive_but_some_programs_insist_on_it_what_can_i_d o.html
    This DIDN'T resolve the problem as it merely created a different error message - it said: "The specified path is too long C:\Program Files" NB This is despite me telling it to install iTunes to the G-drive.
    Solution: I removed the virtual C-drive (ie. mapping of "C:"  to the new folder) and instead in My Computer -> Manage -> Storage -> Disk Management, I assigned the C: drive letter to a drive partition I use for storing media (I plan to name it back else several programms will fail to store media correctly). I also moved the iTunes.exe installation file to that C: partition in case that helped. Installation (still told to be the G-drive) was now successful.
    What I noticed is iTunes created the following path - C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\JRE\1.3.0_02\lib\ext - and dumped this file there: QTJava.zip Looks suspiciously like an install file for the bundled (and required) updated Quick Time, which it obviously requires to be dumped on a C-drive. Once installed I doubt that file will still be needed, so I'll delete it after I restart (it won't let me at the mo).
    If you don't have extra partitions that you can assign C-drive to, then you could either try Adding (rather than changing) the C: drive letter to your current System disk. IN FACT I'M THINKING THAT'D BE THE BEST THING TO DO ANYWAY as then all programmes will use the correct system disk regardless of whether they think they should be using G: or C: (though I've not tried it, so can't be sure this works). Alternatively I reckon you could connect a USB stick and assign C-drive to that (if it isn't in fact automatically assigned it). Allow it to dump the QTJava.zip file on to it and once installed, you can remove the USB Stick - NB I'd suggest using the Safe Removal. (Well, might be worth restarting first in case it is referencing anything on it that isn't finished until restart.)
    Hope this helps someone as was driving me potty coz I couldn't update my iTunes and thus couldn't sync my iPhone!

    Hi AltafB,
    For your situation, you can short the path for the source code. Or use a short path for build agent folder in your build definition. You can refer to the links below to solve your problem:

    Besides, since you deploy Orchard to Azure, you can also publish it directly using publish profile in Visual Stduio or WebMatrix directly.
