Opening reader file as admin in Acrobat X

Hi,
I am trying to deploy some software and at the end of the installation I want to display a PDF copied to the users desktop.
I need to run the installation as an admin. It seems if I open a PDF using admin credentials it displays the "Adobe Reader cannot open in Protected Mode due to a problem with your system configuration" error. If I open the PDF using user credentials it opens fine.
Anyideas ?

Are you trying on machine which has Active Directory Setup? If yes, try with Reader proceted mode disbaled option.

    Hi TheMom1999,
    Do you mean that you are unable to open the pdf files via Reader?
    Which OS are you using? Have you updated Reader o v. 11.0.7 and checked?
    Was it working fine for you before?

  • Open PDF files in IE by Acrobat Standard 8 instead of Reader

    Hi,
    I have an issue when I open PDF files in Internet Explorer.
    On my computer, Acrobat Reader 7 and Acrobat Standard 8 are installed.
    I want that Acrobat Standard 8 opens my PDF files instead of Acrobat Reader 7.
    There is 2 conditions : I can't (I mustn't) uninstall Acrobat Reader 7 !
    How can I fix it?
    Thank you for your help ;o)

    Sure, I know that :o)
    What I want to do is with Acrobat, not Reader.
    In fact, I want to open PDF files with Acrobat in Internet Explorer 6 (now, I can do it) then modify directly any (unprotected) PDF files within IE.

    Be sure no aspects of AR7 are running in the background (part of the typical problem). Be sure that AA8 is the default in the selection of PDF files. Last, open AA8 before you start IE. I am not sure these will resolve the issue, but they might be worth a try.

  • Cannot open PDF file after update to Acrobat Reader 11.0.1 / 10.1.5

    I receive faxes from a service in the form of PDF files.  Up until today, I have been able to open them with no problem using Acrobat Reader 10.1.4 and lower. 
    Today, I updated Acrobat Reader to 10.1.5, and it's suddenly unable to open any of those files.  I tried uninstalling 10.1.5 and installing 11.0.1, and the same problem exists. 
    I also tried a computer with 11.0.0 that had not yet updated, and it works fine.
    Apparently, it's something about this latest update. 
    The PDF files open in other viewers like Foxit, Sumatra, and Chrome with no problem. 
    Here is the error:
    The offending file can be gotten from here:
    https://dl.dropbox.com/u/24145333/Cisco_fax.pdf
    Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated!
    /Mike

    Apparently I was incorrect on the Cisco box, we are using something different now. We use an Extended application server attached to a Meta Call feature server. This is a known issue for them.
    "We have discovered an issue that means that the format of fax PDFs generated on most versions of Metaswitch EAS is incompatible with the latest Adobe Reader (11.0.01).  This means that when your end users upgrade their Adobe Reader to 11.0.01, they will no longer be able to view faxes received from EAS in PDF format."
    The same is with version 10.1.5. I uninstalled 10.1.5 and reinstalled 10.1.4 and the problem went away. No updates for us for now

  • Cannot open PDF files on internet with Acrobat 7.0

    I use Acrobat 7.0 to make and read my PDF files.  Also have reader 9.0 installed.  Today internet explorer 9 stopped reading pdf files on the internet.  Tried selecting both Acrobat 7.0 and Reader 9.0 but neither work.  Only get the cannot open the file message.  Tried three different sites to try different PDF files.  Suggestions???

    Only for reading files there are some other (newer but small) viewing tools. remember that.
    Also I wouldn't use the in-browser function of any tool you use. It's not necessary.
    The file will be also downloaded to your machine, there is no on the fly reading or anything else you expect.
    so why will you waste screen size caused by the second menu bar.
    Set your browser to open .pdf files outside, so you get more control where files are saved and you get a better screen size.
    In my opinion in-browser-pdf is senseless, just a confusing gimmick.

  • Can't open PDF files until I end Acrobat.exe process in task manager

    I have Acrobat 9 Standard with all updates applied. Occiasonally when I try to open a PDF nothing will happen, turns out that I open the task manager and find that Acrobat.exe is still running. I end the process and then I am able to open the PDF file, the file is local on my machine, (not in outlook, not on the network) and yes it happens to many of my files. What is the fix so I don't have to do this exta step every time? Is it a problem with Acrobat, or maybe it is conflicting with something on Microsoft's End? By the way I am running Windows XP Pro SP3 with all updates applied. Please help me figure this out!

    You could try downloading the Windows Sysinternals program Handle http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb795533.aspx
    Run this from the command line passing either PDF or Acrobat as a parameter. This may help you diagnose what is holding Acrobat open.
    i.e. At a command prompt type: Handle pdf (or Handle acrobat)

  • Issue with opening PDF files from the web Acrobat 8.1.4

    Hello everyone
    I just found out about this problem today, and it manifests in such a manner that when you try to open a PDF document on the web, it hangs for a while, and then the standard message about Adobe Acrobat not being able to open the document comes up, and after you OK away that you get the message that the program shuts down.
    If I download the PDF itself and open it locally it works. Is there any known issue with updates recently that creates this problem?
    The system is running on Windows 7 32-bits, and Adobe Acrobat is a part of the CS3 Master Collection.
    Greetings from Alexander

    Not supported file type can (but not always) mean the PDF was created with an old enough version of Acrobat, that it isn't comaptible with reader X or XI.
    Might have been damaged is pretty cut and dried in its meaning and interpretation.
    There's a known issue with Mac OS and Safari Browser "breaking" PDFs as they download, but it's not so common for Windows. Since these are files you already had, it would be even less applicable.
    You can try downloading an older version of Reader to check if it's a compatibility issue, but you'd have to uninstall the latest to do it and it'd be a lot of bother if they still don't open. It would also mean they are "broken" and cannot be repaired, that I know of.

  • Remove "open recent file" screen on startup Acrobat X

    When I start Adobe Acrobat X, it opens the splash screen "open a recent file". This is very annoying, because when you use Outlook, and choose to print a PDF document, it opens Acrobat X, it prints, but Acrobat X does not close from itself. I have to do it manually. So when I have to print several PDF documents from Outlook, I need to close every Acrobat X app, so the next document will print. Acrobat 9 did it automatically.
    Is there a solution, or a registry tweak, to remove the "open a recent file" screen?
    Kind regards

    Had a user call me today after installing an Adobe update:
    "Whenever my boss prints from Outlook now, his PDF's go into some Adobe "recent" queue...."
    Huh? I go to check it out. It's the same issue that people are complaining about here.
    I asked his secretary: "Did you get an update?".
    "No"
    She clicks on the Adobe X icon: Please wait while update is applied...
    Up pops this "new and improved" recent screen.
    Then I ask her to print a PDF attachment. Same issue as BravoBE.
    I can see this confusing A LOT of people. My secretary didn't realize she could still click the menu bar when this "recent" screen was up.
    Can you please give us an option to turn this off?
    And can anyone supply me with a link to get back to Reader 9?

    Found it for anyone else looking:

    Of course I (the IT Manager) have Acrobat 8 Pro so I will hopefully not have this issue.

  • How can you minimize all open pdf files at once in Acrobat 10?

    My company just switched us to Acrobat 10 from 6.  Now if I have a number of pdf files open I have to minimize each of them individually.  Before all you did was click the minimize button and the program just minimized to the taskbar.  How do you do that in Acrobat 10?  The Help link is of no use in the program.  Maybe this can't be done any longer.  If not, pretty stupid.

    Use the menu Window > Minimize All Windows

  • Opening Files with Admin Privleges

    Hello all:
    How do you open a file with admin privileges once you are in the program? Is it possible to run a program with admin privileges? The reason I ask is that I installed the GUI version of vim and need to be able to open some files which will be read-only unless I supply an administrator password.
    John

    You can open any application capable of running in Mac OS X natively as root by entering:
    sudo /path/to/application/Contents/MacOS/application
    in the Terminal, which is in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder. This works on a per-run basis, and the command will need to be entered each time you want to launch the application. Other methods exist which only require the password to be entered once, and work on a per-application basis.

  • How to Print a PDF file and Close the ACrobat Reader opened using WEBUTIL

    Hi All,
    I have used WEBUTIL successfully and printed files using webutil_host.nonblocking builtin. What happens is that after printing the file the Acrobat reader stays on the desktop of the client PC. How to close that file opened programmatically. I am unable to close it using any any commands or using following builtins from WEBUTIL.
      WEBUTIL_HOST.RELEASE_PROCESS(PROCESS_ID)
      WEBUTIL_HOST.TERMINATE_PROCESS(PROCESS_ID);My command to directly call the Acrobat reader file and print it is by using this command.
      M_STR_COMMAND    := 'cmd.exe /c start AcroRd32.exe /t '||CHR(34)||FILE_STR_PATH||'\'||FILE_NAME||CHR(34)||' '||CHR(34)||PRINTER_NAME||CHR(34);Help in this regard is much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    I think if you use the start-command, the execution is asynchronously and you won't get the correct process-id. Try to execute Acorbat directly without the cmd /c start in front of it.

  • Why Acrobat Reader doesn't open pdf-files from Safari?

    I'm new Mac user and cannot find answer why I cannot open pdf-files directly from Safari. My Macbook OS X 10.9.3 and Safari is 7.0.4. Only way to open pdf-files is to download the content first and then open it. If I try to open it directly Acrobat says "Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the end user license agreement". I have downloaded Acrobat Reader several times already and cannot understand what I'm doing wrong.

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
              Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
              Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

  • PDF files opens in Adobe Reader  9 but not Adobe Acrobat Pro 9

    After one of my users digitally signs a PDF file, and saves it, he cannot open it again.
    He gets either a reference memory error or a Font Capture error.
    I can open the same PDF file with Adobe Reader 9 and Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.

    So the option was already checked when opened the document. I went ahead and unchecked, closed, reopened just to test and it's still not displaying correctly.
    In response to Bill@VT. The image is on top of a white background so I can't tell if there is space there or not, it's just all white.
    She showed me another document that's doing something similar today. This time the pdf was done with a green background and now the background shows as white. It was created the same way with Indesign and it shows fine in Reader and the Windows preview pane just not Acrobat. I'm trying to get the user to find the installation media so I can remove and reinstall, but I'm not sure if she will be able to find it.
