Need stats on the number of computers that have installed Adobe Reader

Where can I find how many computers have installed Adobe Reader? I've searched but I can't seem to find an answer. I am trying to convince the PM for a project that we don't need an non-PDF version of a PDF file since Reader is almost universally installed. However, I can't find a solid number to report.

You probably won't get one either. Just wild guesses. This isn't something that Adobe would release as fas as I know.
If you want my wild guess, I'd say 95% of the computers in the US have Reader but again, I have no real information to base that number on.

I have installed adobe reader onto my Mac but when I open up an adobe pdf it tells me that i need to accept the end user license agreement, quite, and then open up a new browser but i have never seen the end user license agreement. What should I do in order to accept the end user license agreement even though it never pops up when i install adobe reader?

Make sure Readr is closed. Go to the Applications form, look for the Adobe Reader icon, double click on it, and follow the lead. Restart Reader when finished.

I am considering installing the latest version of OS X Mountain Lion but am concerned by the number of users that have had severe problems. Has Apple sorted this out?

As I told you, you have to do some steps before upgrading to OS X Mountain Lion.
First of all, make a backup of your files using Time Machine and/or Carbon Copy Cloner. If you make both, good, but if you only make one, it's OK, too.
OS X Lion and OS X Mountain Lion aren't compatible with PowerPC applications, so you have to check if your applications are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com If you have to update an application, do it before upgrading, because the Mountain Lion installer moves unsupported applications to a separate folder.
After doing that, open Disk Utility, select "Macintosh HD" in the sidebar and repair permissions. Then, verify the disk to check if it's OK. If everything is right, just open the App Store and purchase OS X Mountain Lion

Is there a certain number of times I should install Adobe Reader on a mac before it works?

Is there a certain number of times I should install Adobe Reader on a mac before it works? Cant open any Adobe certified pdf's in any applications. Keeps telling me to install Reader for the best experience.
I've tried that on three macs, no luck. Website in general is a shambles.

No, if it doesn't work the first time, doing it again isn't likely to change anything.
The usual reason for this message is that the app is not using Reader, but the PDF needs Reader. What app is putting out the message? Can you reply (NOT BY EMAIL) with a screen shot of the message?

I have installed Adobe Reader 11.0.07 for Mac OS 10.9.3. Have asked this question numerous time without results. The problems I am having are: I cannot scroll using the side slider on downloaded PDF files, nor can I fill in fillable files. Also, and this is extremely irritating, I cannot re-initialize the same file or initialize and another PDF file after I have initialized the first file. If you cannot help please let me know if should use an earlier version of Reader or find anther company that has the appropriate software.

Perhaps you missed that you started a discussion at I have OS 10.9.2 and have downloaded latest version of Reader 11. I can no longer fill in form or scroll using the side bar. and you did not respond to the last post there.

How can I get the number of computers that a specific user had add to domain?

Greetings
In Win Srv 2K8 I know how to increase\decrease the total number of computers that any user can add to domain.
(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/243327/en-us)
but there is any way to get the number of computer accounts that a user had add?
thank you in advance

Hi,
Regarding your request, maybe we could use the 'ms-DS-CreatorSID' attribute to verify the computer number that a specific has joined to the domain. Please understand that for a
computer account created by domain users, the account has 'ms-DS-CreatorSID' attribute to indicate the creator user. When a user adds a computer to the domain, a process enumerates the 'ms-DS-CreatorSID' attribute on every computer account in the domain and
calculates if the sum exceeds the current quota for that user.
The 'ms-DS-CreatorSID' and 'ms-DS-MachineAccountQuota' with default value 10 are also available in Windows Server 2008 AD DS.
Note: The 'ms-DS-CreatorSID' attribute will be unset in the computer account that is pre-created in Active Directory Users and Computers MMC or joined by domain administrators.
Auditing on the computers container should work for collecting information of joining computer into the domain.
For details, please refer to the following similar thread.

How can I kick out a older computer from the list of computers that have access to CC?

When I want to start an CC app it says there are already 2 computers using Adobe CC on my account. How can I manage the list of computers in this list?

I checked it out by myself: I could quit my CC account on the old computer with Creative Cloud Desktop App > Preferences > Delete account on this computer.

I need to deactivate the 2 work computers that I had my copy of Photoshop Elements 9 and activate my MacBook

Any ideas on how to deactivate 2 computers at a business where I am no longer working? I want to activate my 2 computers at home....

Adobe Support (chat or phone) can deactivate inaccessible installations. As long as you can provide proof of ownership they might be able to help.

That error is caused by a Windows Update. Make sure you have all subsequent updates installed.

What is your operating system? Browser? Reader version?
What exactly means "cannot"?

I purchased Photoshop 13 on disk for Windows now I am getting a message stating I exceeded the number of computers

I installed Photoshop 13 on 2 laptops and 1 desktop using the Photoshop 13 disk. All computers are running Windows 8.1 Why am I just now finding out that installing Photoshop 13 is limited to a certain number of computers? NO where on the packaging or product description does it state that it is limited. I am a long time user of Photoshop and it really torques me off that I am now limited to the number of computers I can install the program on. Well I am returning this and finding another product. It is deceptive advertising.

She is correct it is not on the packages or product description. The EULA would have to be accessed on the Adobe website. Adobe should make it visible on the packages. Many other software companies make the number of computer allowed visible on their packages. I imagine this individual was familiar with seeing the number of computer allowed listed on other software packages. When she did not see it on the package it is implied that there is no limit.

How to count the number of calls that traversed the DB lookup node successfully

Hi All,
I need to obtain the number of calls that successfully traversed the DB lookup node.
Can you please let me know, what is the variable I need to add after the DB lookup node to capture the number of succesful calls.
Kindly help.

Hi Nirmala,
I hope you are looking for how many calls passed the DBLookupnode in script.
In DBLookup node you have a Right Branch and Wrong Branch.
1) After the right branch, set an unused peripheral variable and store the Value "Success"
2) For the wrong branch, set the same variable with the Value "Failure".
You can execute a query against the HDS and have the numbers.
Else you can setup a CallType as well before and after the node.

Senthil

I am using Windows 7 and have installed Adobe Digital Editions 4. When I try to borrow a book from the library, it says it can't find the program

I am using Windows 7 and have installed Adobe Reader 4, in order to use a Kobo E-Reader. When I try to "Borrow" the book from the Library, I get a message that it cannot find the program to use to open it.
This problem started about 2 months ago. Up to that time everything worked well.
Hoping for a solution.
Any answers?

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Security - Can I limit the number of computers which can access a PDF?

I'd like to set the following specific securities over my PDF document:
1. Password access
2. Editing (copy/paste) disabled.
I already know how to do these two in Acrobat.
3. Limit the number of computers which can open the document. (i.e. I want to prevent the document holder from sending their copy of the PDF to someone else via email, external hard drive, etc. Once he/she opens the PDF on their laptop, it can't be opened again on any other cpu)
4. Expiration (i.e. I want to set a 5/10/15/ or 30-day expiration on the document. Once it's been opened, it will become inaccessible in 5/10/15/ or 30 days' time.....whichever I would specifiy)
Can someone help me with the last two items? Your help is much appreciated.

If (and this is a big IF) all recipients of your PDFs have digital IDs (PKI-based certificates), you can encrypt your PDFs with certificate encryption. In the encryption workflow you add recipients' certificates (with public key only) to the encrypted document. After that only holders of one of those certificates may be able to open your PDFs. This method does not restrict the documents from opening only on specific CPUs and does not prevent documents from being moved from one location to another but rather restricts the ability to open this document to a pre0defined group of people who are identified by their Digital IDs.
The caveat here is that all these people need to have Digital IDs and send you their public keys.
