New PCs Acrobat Reader hangs up IE 7 opening PDF

Hi,
we made all PCs new with Windows XP prof wit hactual MS Patches and only Adobe Acrobat Reader.
Starting Adobe Reader works
double click a pdf works
Opening a pdf in outlook works
ONLY OPENING A PDF IN IE 7 DOESN`T WORK. BLANK SCREEN AND IE: NO RESPONSE
Any Hints?
PS. Domain Administrator works, User as local Administrator works not.

Yes, it rules out any version mismatch. Still not sure what might be happening.
You say that it works when logging in as Domain admin works but doesn't for local admin. Who installed Reader - domain admin?
One thing to try would be to Repair using the local admin and see if that fixes the problem.

Acrobat Reader x 10.0 - Cannot open pdf as a single file

I am using Acrobat Reader x 10.0 on Win 7 64 bit OS.
I save Filemaker 11.0 Reports as PDF Individual Single Files, to a Folder on my Hard Drive.
On some occasions, I can have been able to open these Individual Reports files as a Single Files, each of about 540KB.
On many occasions, when I open what had been saved as a Individual Single File, the actual report saved does not appear on the page, but can be found down the left side, amongst other similar Files and the File size is 1855KB or more, depending how many other files are included.
My intent is to include an Individual Single File as an attachment to an email, but I do not want the recipient to see all the other individual files.
How can I ensure, when I save the Filemaker Individual Report as a PDF file, it can only open as the same Individual Single Report File that had been saved, on its own and not with multiple similar files.
This problem is a pain in the butt and has brought my project to a standstill.
Is this a Design Problem, A Settings Preferences Problem or a Problem caused by me.
I have not encountered this before.
Thank You and hoping someone has the answer I need.

After some persistance and much trial and error, I believe I have overcome this silly problem.
When I save the Filemaker Database Record as a pdf file and the Save As Panel pops up on the screen, there is a Save Box that contains three choices, one of which says "Current Record". When I choose this, everything seems to work fine. So, I guess this is the Fix.
Sorry if I have raised unneccessary concerns within the Forum.

Acrobat/Reader X Error trying to open PDF in IE8

When I click on a link in IE8 to a PDF I get the following message:
"There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running, please exit and try again. (1:1)"
I have Windows 7 32-bit with IE8. It worked fine when I had Acrobat 7 standard and Adobe Reader X installed. Then I uninstalled Acrobat 7 standard and installed the trial version of Acrobat X (need to make sure it works before I purchase it for everyone in domain) and I can now create PDF's, but can't view them in IE8.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I would need some more information to try to diagnose this.
* can you launch Acrobat X by double-clicking it? Do any dialogs (like the End-User License Agreement) show up that you have to click through?
* in Acrobat X, open Edit -> Preferences and go to the Internet tab. You should see a path to acrobat.exe, underneath the "Display Browser in PDF" checkbox. Is the checkbox checked? Is the path correct?
* can you open a PDF from the internet in IE8? Try http://acroeng.adobe.com/Test_Files/quickie/SONNETS.pdf (my particular favorite).

Acrobat reader hangs opening pdf created with autocad

Hi all,
when I try to open a pdf file created with autocad, Acrobat Reader hangs and I can't do anything else then kill the process. Now I use Acrobat Reader 9.5.5. I've insatlled also Acrobat Reader XI, but the problem persists. It seems it is very slow to process the file. If file has few graphics after some minutes I can see it and zoom in, but if file is has a lot of graphics, acrobat hangs. Any suggestions?

Hi Robert,
I am so sorry for the inconvenience caused & will try my best to get this issue resolved.
I will recommend you to upgrade your Adobe reader to Adobe Acrobat Reader DC on your Samsung Note 3 mobile phone and then try to view the pdf files. You can download it for free from the Google app. store or you can refer to this link Acrobat Reader DC Learn & Support.
Let me know if you still experience the same issue.
Regards,
Aadesh

Are there settings in Acrobat to enable a PDF file to open in Acrobat or Acrobat Reader by Default rather than open in a Browser

Are there settings in Acrobat to enable a PDF file to open in Acrobat or Acrobat Reader by Default rather than open in a Browser

There is a check box in the preference (under edit). I have not had great success with this setting, but that is what it is supposed to do. Don't expect it to happen in Chrome that has it's own PDF viewer (or the preview function on a MAC). You might also check the settings for your particular browser.

Is possible in acrobat reader fill in and save interactive PDF created with LiveCycle Designer?

is possible in acrobat reader fill in and save interactive PDF created with LiveCycle Designer?

Hi,
Only if the form has been Reader Enabled before it is sent out to the user with Reader.
There are two ways of Reader Enabling the form. One using Acrobat Standard v9 or Acrobat Professional v8 (both have license restrictions). The other is to use LC Reader Extensions ES2, which is a server product (additional costs).
Some info here:
http://www.assuredynamics.com/index.php/2010/11/using-livecycle-forms-in-acrobat-and-reade r/
A search of the forums for "Reader Extensions" or "Reader Enable" will give more information.
Hope that helps,

Acrobat distiller (first use) don't open PDF file what to do ?

Hi,
Acrobat distiller (first use) don't open PDF file and give this message (in french) : Erreur dans /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PDF/Settings/PDFX4 2008.joboptions : /CheckCompliance out of range Avertissement : Distiller ne traite pas les extensions de fichiers .PDF ou .JDF.
What should I do ?
Thanks for your reply.

No, Distiller does not do that job at all. Distiller makes PDF files, but it does not read them.
I am not sure what you are using: Distiller Server is finished as a product. Distiller comes with Acrobat also - this is not Distiller Server.
Acrobat Pro includes many tools for processing PDF files and can sometimes reduce file size. It can also convert to PDFX4 using Preflighting.

SAFARI 6.1.3 update to Reader 11.0.07 … cannot open pdf files that are presently on my computer. Previous version had no problem. Any ideas? (Here is the message: Adobe Reader could not open 'Digital_Holiday_Cookbook.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).

Thank you Pat!!!

Even I have the latest version of Adober reader I still can not open pdf file on safari

Even I have the latest version of Adober reader I still can not open pdf file on safari.

Save the file locally, open the Reader application and try to open it from there. If it still doesn't work provide the full details of your OS, Reader version and the exact error message you're getting when you try to open the file.

Fraud? Action required : Upgrade New Adobe Acrobat Reader

Hello Folks,
Got this strange e-mail regarding an upgrade to Acrobat Reader, Adobe Inc., Canada? Looks fishy, DON'T CLICK [url deleted by host]
Anyone else see this in their inbox, or know if it's legitimate?
Text:
Just how much faster can you work with Adobe Acrobat PDF Reader
software? Fast enough to stay on top of last-minute changes, connect
with key decision makers, and share updates with co-workers.
You'll discover how easy it is to reuse content by exporting PDF files
to Microsoft Word or Excel formats. And how quickly you can automate
multi-step tasks with new, guided Actions. No wonder PC Magazine
says, "There's a lot to like in Acrobat X PDF Reader."
Bill Lomax

It's not legitimate, and we see this type of thing all the time. Delete the email, don't visit the link, it'll be dealt with by Adobe.
Aside from it being a fake URL, they can't even get the product name right! There is no such thing as "Adobe Acrobat Reader". We have "Adobe Acrobat" and "Adobe Reader".

Acrobat Professional hangs when converting word to PDF

I am using Acrobat Professional version 7 and when i use the Convert to PDF option for a large word document it goes through the motions of converting the document but then seems to hang and i get no PDF document created. Also the Word document then says read only in the title as well.
It works fine for small word documents just not large files with pictures.
I have tried uninstalling Acrobat Prof and Office 2003 and re-installing both and it makes no difference.
Can anyone provide any information on what i can try to fix this issue as
i am out of ideas.
Thanks
Lawrence

Empty the TEMP folder or print to the Adobe PDF printer. The latter might be worth trying to be sure things are working.
You may have to uncheck a lot of the options in the PDF Maker preferences, particularly tags. Keep in mind that large graphics require a lot of disk space in the translation as the PS format is not very memory efficient for graphics (at least from what I have seen). You might also make a copy of the DOC file and then select a graphic and choose format. In the lower left corner of the general tab is a compress button. Try that to reduce the graphics resolution and see if that solves the problem.

Acrobat Reader 9 Crashes PC When Opening 2 Documents Simultaneously (2D Graphics Acceleration Relate

Hey all,
Weird issue. I noticed my Adobe Acrobat Reader 9 crashes when opening two PDF's simultaneously. The first one opens just fine. The second one, a new window opens, but there's only black inside the 2nd Reader window. It finally (after way too long) begins to show the document, and then I get a blue screen of death with a fault in nvlddmkm.sys, the nVidia display driver for my video card. It says it was unable to reset the display drivers, dumps the memory, and reboots. One interesting note is that if I close the "black" window before it blue screens, I can continue using the computer with no crash. It's only if I give it time to try to display.
I already found the temporary fix for this, which is disabling 2D Graphics Acceleration in the Acrobat Reader (Edit -> Preferences -> Page Setup). Fortunately I'm on a fast computer, so this doesn't affect performance much, but it still obviously isn't ideal, and I'd like to see the problem resolved.
I don't experience this problem with any other programs at the moment, so I'm thinking it's an issue with Adobe's product or possibly the nVidia drivers, but thought I should mention it and see if anyone has any other possible fixes where 2D Graphics Acceleration can remain enabled.
Thanks all!

I am having the exact same issue... it's so frustrating! Does anyone have a solution to this?
Running CS4 on a Core i7 workstation w/ Win 7 64-bit, latest BIOS and video card drivers (ATI Radeon 4890). Acrobat is version 9.3 with all updates. It freezes for 30 seconds just as described, every single time you launch it.

Acrobat Reader X cant's save "old" PDF versions

I'm creating PDF documents in PDF Format 1.4 for compatibility reasons.
The published documents will be opened in Acrobat Reader. If the user is using Acrobat reader X and saves the document it will be stored in PDF Version 1.5.
These PDF 1.5 documents could not be managed in the following automated process steps.
(That's why I'm creating PDF 1.4)
How can I keep the PDF version saving a document in Acrobat READER X.
Regards
J.B.

We know that Acrobat Pro or Standard can save version 1.4.
We have more than 30.000 computer installations worldwide.
This would be a good deal for adobe to install the acrobat product instead of the acrobat reader only for viewing pdf documents correctly ;-(((
For security reasons and new features we are forced to update the acrobat reader version
For compatibility reasons we should use old versions
==> There' somethind wrong in your version strategy.
????? WHY DOES A READONLY PRODUCT CHANGE THE FORMAT OF A PDF DOCUMENT ??????
