Problem installing reader 9
Hi,
Trying to install reader 9 on my laptop, I get a warning msg. that IE 7 stopped working and must be closed.
OS: Vista home premium
Norton Internet Security 2008 installed
I tried disabling NIS, didn't help.
Any ideas?
Tnx, Eli
I'm having the same problem, "Internet Explorer has stopped working and must shut down", I tried disabling all security settings to no avail. It downloaded version 7.0 for XP but said it had compatibility issues with Vista and didn't run, but did download. Version 9 won't download.

Problems installing Reader 10.1.3 via GPO from AIP
I have been using GPO to install Reader for a while. Up til now I have not had any problems that I have not been able to resolve thanks to all of the posts I have seen here.
I have had Reader 10.1.1 install on all of the computers on the network using GPO. I just went through the process of creating an AIP (upgraded from 10.1.0 with the MSP file) for 10.1.3 and setup a new package in my GPO for the 10.1.3 install (after using the Customization Wizard to modify it). Everything appeared to be working properly. I removed the 10.1.1 package and the 10.1.3 package seems to be getting pushed to the computers on the network. Unfortunately many of the users have started reporting that they are unable to open PDF files. Upon investigation the Add/Remove Programs show that the Reader 10.1.3 package has been installed on the computers, but when an Administrative user logs onto the computer and runs the Adobe Reader it appears to complete installation (installing settings or something else). When the administrative user logs off and the normal user logs onto the same computer it then is fully functional.
Have I missed something?
Most computers on the network are Windows XP (fully patched). We are slowly replacing them with Windows 7. Users do not have admin rights.
Anybody else see similar problems?lrcjc,
Have you developed a solution for this issue yet? I am pushing the installation with a Computer Policy > Startup Script and am having a similar issue. When I log in as a user I can not use the program. When I log in as an administrator it will work. Then, when I log back in as a regular user I can see Reader 10.1.3. I am in an enterprise environment with XP and 7 machines. Here is my installation script:
@echo off
set server=leejsp-fs2
set update=10.1.3
if exist "\\leejsp-fs2\syncnet\Reader_Test\logs\%computername%.txt" goto patch
echo Adobe Reader install started on %date% %time% from %server% >> "\\leejsp-fs2\syncnet\Reader_Test\logs\%computername%.txt"
echo Installing Adobe Reader...
msiexec /i "\\%server%\syncnet\Reader_Test\acroread.msi" /qb
echo Adobe Reader install finished on %date% %time% >> "\\leejsp-fs2\syncnet\Reader_Test\logs\%computername%.txt"
:patch
if exist "\\leejsp-fs2\syncnet\Reader_Test\logs\%computername%_%update%.txt" goto end
echo Adobe Reader %update% Update install started on %date% %time% from %server% >> "\\leejsp-fs2\syncnet\Reader_Test\logs\%computername%_%update%.txt"
msiexec /p "\\%server%\install\syncnet\Reader_Test\AdbeRdrUpd1013_MUI.msp" /qb
echo Adobe Reader %update% Update install started on %date% %time% from %server% >> "\\leejsp-fs2\syncnet\Reader_Test\logs\%computername%_%update%.txt"
:end
This script worked perfectly with Reader 9 and update 9.3.2. Could my parameters be outdated? Am I missing a parameter that is stopping a non-administrator from finishing the installation? Anything helps! -
I'm using Win7, Kaspersky 2010av, and I made 3 attempts to download the latest reader (from Adobe site choosing win7 platform), all which resulted in providing Adobe Air listed on control panel programs. The last attempt resulted in several other program files being corrupted and had to restore the computer from an image backup. I am not going to risk an attempt at a 4th try, and though I am curious as to why Adobe reader and win7 are apparently not compatible, my main curiosity is why Adobe Air keeps being loaded instead of Reader and why it crashed my computer.
thanks for any comments!Thank you very much for your reply. This is a different download
source than what Adobe shows at their site:
http://get.adobe.com/reader/thankyou/activex/?installer=Reader_9.3.3_English_for_Windows&p =Google_Toolbar_6.5&a=ARH&a=Air_Installer&d=McAfee_Security_Scan_Plus
(I didn't opt for the McAfee offer, and their was no choice on the "Air"
download.)
I think the problem is Kaspersky 2010 and Adobe 9.3.3 on a win7 OS. For
some reason, Kaspersky / Win7 doesn't seem to like Adobe. Googling this
problem seems to indicate that I'm not the only one failing to install
reader on win7.
Anyway, thanks again for taking time to reply.

Problem installing Reader 9.4 when Acrobat Pro is installed.
When I try to install the new 9.4 Reader the installer tell me that I have a more functional product installed and terminates. There is nothing in the customization tool that allows me to install both, only to determine which is primary if both are installed.
Ideas?Ankit_Jain wrote:
This shouldn't happen..
But it does.
Before instaling both, you may want to read the kb article at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/333/333223.html
The short story is, even if you do succeed in installing both, this may only be the beginning of your problems. -
Problems Installing Reader X and FlashPlayer on Mac running 10.7.3
Attempted to install both Reader X and Flashplayer on two new Macs, both running 10.7.3. Downloads went without a problem. Unfortunately, installations begin but never complete. No error messages are posted, the installer simply never completes. No antivirus SW installed. Was able to download Reader 9.
Grab the install.log file for Acrobat located at "/var/log/install.log".
Paste the contents in the forum.
I'm guessing but you probably have a perms issue somewhere interfering with the installation. -

Is it possible instal reader xi without print and spool service installation in the O.S
Is there a way to instal reader xi in a custom made Windows 8.1 pro update.2. august 16' without the printer en spool service.
it isn't possible activate this service. This services isn't part of the O.S.
We only use a Bluetooth printing system.
regards,
MasI wonder why you are asking. Have you experienced specific problems installing Reader having removed (for some reason) these system components? Generally, though, if you remove system components and something doesn't run your only option is to put them back.

I have a problem in installing Reader X.
Windows 7, 64 bit, and trying to download using IE8 (32 bit.) I have checked that the Security options for Trusted and Internet zones are set to default - I assume that this would then not stop any ActiveX errors or suppress any ActiveX messages.
Have Norton Internet security. but to avoid any issues have turned off firewall and virus scan for the download period.
I go to the adobe download, and select reader X. Then press Download - I get a warning screen that, depending upon my security settings, I may see some of the following steps. (With a number of different scarios listed.)
But the process just stops here - I do not get any Information Bar messages coming up in IE8 that I can respond to. Just stays at the prescreen, and cannot get any file to download.
I cannot find any way of donwloading and saving any installation file to the PC, which I can then run offliine.
Any help please???Thanks - am downloading the file now!

Reader XI would not open several files. It said .tif was not a supported file type or it was damaged. I uninstalled Reader XI and installed Reader DC with the same results. When sent to another computer, they open with no problems. What do I do next?
The other computer must have something that opens .tif files. Adobe Reader has always only opened .pdf files.
If you are double clicking on a .pdf and Reader is trying to open the file, you need to set your systems file associations for the proper program to open that file type. -
Anyone having problems 875 XP RAID install READ THIS!
I was having problems installing windows XP on my new 875P Neo FIS2R Board using a 2 disk SATA RAID 0 Array. A breif run down on my system:
MSI 875P Neo FIS2R
P4 3.0 800MHz
1.0 GB DDR400
2x Segate SATA 120GB
PNY QuadroFX 1000 AGPx8
Swiftech H20-8500PV Watercooling sys.
and misc. other crap
So, I was all ready to install XP, even got as far as the first reboot after formating and copying files, when after I rebooted I got an error mess. -
"Windows could not start because of a computer hardware disk configuration problem.
Could not read from selected boot disk. Check boot path and disk hardware.
Please check the Windows documentation about hardware disk configuration and your hardware reference manuals for additional information."
After trying numerous configurations of the HDD's and BIOS I came to the conclusion that was not the prob. After loading the XP recovery console i could see that the files were successfully copied to the Striped RAID 0 Array i had set up. Opening up the boot.ini file in the root of c:\ I saw this:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(1)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect
Now, having had to trouble shoot multi-boot systems i knew a little about the boot.ini file. The "rdisk(x)" field was troubling me because it points the computer to the physical disk with the os on it, and it said rdisk(1) which actually refers to the 2nd disk not the first. So I changed the boot.ini to read:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect
* note i changed the rdisk field to "rdisk(0)"
Mind you that I had to first install XP to an IDE drive to be able to access the boot.ini file on the RAID Array unless you can do it in the recovery console, I was unable to. Also, you must remove the "read only" attribute on the boot.ini file to be able to save it; don't forget to change it back.
After I changed the boot.ini I shutdown the comp. and disconnected the IDE drive I had used to access the RAID Array and rebooted. Sure enough, the damn thing booted right up and continued the install!!! Woot!
Anyway, I don't exactly know where the problem is generated but this is a work around that worked for me. I know at least 6 people have posted here w/similar problems so i thought that this might help.bumpidy bump bump

Printing Problems after Reader 10 install
Recently deployed Reader 10 to about 300 workstations using Group Policy. Several machines are no longer able to print to some of the network printers. These printers are HP printers using the Universal Print Driver. When trying to print we get an error and the Adobe Reader application crashes. It will however print to other network printers that are using an older device specific driver, printing to the same print device. Have downloaded the latest HP driver, but it has not helped the situation. The printing worked fine with Reader 8 and Reader 9. Anyone with an Idea?
Sorry only know Windows: Edit (menu)>Preferences>General>Application Startup>Enable Protected Mode at startup.
