Problem with Acrobat X in web browser

When I try to open .pdf files or, in this latest case, submit a job application I get the following dialog box:
'The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser.
Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and exit your Web Browser and try again.'
Any clues?

Thanks for pointing out my errors in communication.
I am referring to Windows 7. I have Adobe Acrobat 8.0
As for using the Adobe Reader forum, the problem is not reading, but the inability to "print" to .pdf, and so this would seem to be the more appropriate forum. The reference is the Reader is just to communicate the error message I receive.

Problems with Forms view in Web browser

I am having several problems with viewing forms in IE 7.
I am running Oracle 10g. When I run a form for the first time it seems to run ok. Then if I make changes and want to view the changes, the form does not refresh. I also have a problem viewing different forms...IE keeps displaying the initial form instead of the new one. I have to completely shut down Forms Builder and OC4J in order to see a different form, or changes to the current form.
Also, I am having the annoying text problem where after the first view, HTML code appears on the screen and I have to remove a digit from before the HTM part of the URL in order to even attempt to run anything. Refreshing the screen does not work.
Please help...this is really irritating...
Thanks,
Kristin

IE 7 isn't certified against Forms 10g
is it important for you to use version 7 ?

Problems with Quicktime audio in web browser

Hello.
In December 2007 I designed a web site to promote a musical show I wrote. I included mp3 audio files of some of the songs. I designed the site using Dreamweaver on my Mac.
The site was working perfectly in February, the last time I (and others) checked it, using both Firefox and Safari to test the links. At that time, when I clicked on a link to one of the music files a window would open with the Quicktime big "Q" logo, then the song would play.
I haven't touched the site (no change of code of any sort) since February.
Today when I tried to access the music files the new window opened as usual with the big "Q" logo, but then a white question mark appears, covering the Q logo. Why is that happening?
The music links (still) work perfectly on PCs (I tested it today with IE on Windows), but not on any of the Macs I've tried (I only own Mac computers) with either Firefox or Safari. And on a Mac, if you right-click on one of the links and choose "Save link as ... " you can download the mp3 and it will play using Quicktime or iTunes from my desktop (or any other location) but won't play from the browser.
I'm pretty sure I'm using a newer version of Quicktime now and newer versions of Firefox and Safari (all have been upgraded since February) but there has been no other change to my software configurations on any of my computers.
If anyone can help me, please look at the actual web page. Here's a link to the page in question: (after arriving at the page, click on "The Demo Recording" link and then try any of the song links).

A big thank you to anyone who tries to assist me. It's much appreciated.

I had no trouble with your files but the issue could be with your page code (or lack of it).
You use "direct" links instead of page code so the QuickTime browser plug-in may not even be used on some machines.
Your file names include spaces and punctuation that could case troubles:
http://deadflamingodancer.com/audio/08%20Gussie's%20Blues.mp3 as one example.
http://developer.apple.com/internet/ieembedprep.html to help fix the page code. You'll then be linking to a new html file with the proper code to call the QuickTime browser plug-in.
To include non standard file formats and "force" the QuickTime browser plug-in be used you need to use the special qtsrc="blah.mp3" syntax instead of the regular "src" tag. Learn more here:

Problems with error-page in web.xml and page caching

Having a few problems with error pages and web.xml with browsers caching the error pages and strange errors coming out of weblogic.servlet.intenal.WebAppServletContext
I'm trying to set a web app up so that all http errors and all exceptions are routed thruogh predefined resources. For now, I'm simply send 400 errors to 400.html and the ServletException, IOException and RuntimeException to respective html pages.
What I'm finding is that the error codes work fine but the exceptions are only be routed to the correct error page for the first call to the servlet after server restart.
So for example, I have my servlet throwing a ServletException as a test case. The weblogic server log shows that ServletException is thrown, and the correct error page for ServletExceptions is shown.
If I change the Servlet code to throw IOException in place of SevletException, the weblogic.log shows that IOExceptyion is being thrown (so the servlet has deployed successfully), however the Servletxception error page is shown on the browser.
I'm using IE6 and I've changed the setting such that a new page is requested every time using the tools-internet options-temp internet files-settings option to "check for new versions of stored pages: Every visit to the page".
Despite this, the servlet exception error page still appears.
If you clear the cache from the temp intenet files->delete files IE option, the correct errror page will be shown so it appears that the browser cache is being used after all.
everytime I delete the temp intenet files I get the correct error page on the first request after but then not after that.
I have implemented the service method for this test to throw the exceptions - does this make a differecne?
As a test, I have moved the imlpementation to the doGet method instead bu I now get a strange eror from weblogic comlpaining about an arrayOutOfBoundsException because eror codes in the web.xml are not supported! - see error above.
Any help is appreciated

After further investigation: -
There are no problems with error pages based on error codes, only error exceptions.
As a test case, I have a service method in a servlet throwing either one of the three exception types that servlets can throw (Runtime, Servlet & IO) the following rules apply. The exception to be thrown is hardcoded and is changed and the web app rebuilt each time. The correct web.xml has been deployed to the app server (checked through console). the webapp is being redeployed correctly - this can be seen in the weblogic log, where the correct exception is reported.
I am using WLS 8.1, Servlet 2.3, JDK 1.4.1_02
In all cases, the weblogic log reports that the servlet is throwing the exception as expected.
Despite having set error-page for exception javax.servlet.ServletException, the exceptions are diverted to the error page that has been set up for http error code 500
The error page for ServletException is therefore never reached.
I have the browser set to request pages every time it is asked.
Once the servlet has thrown an IOException, the only way to get the browser to report an IO or Runtime exception error-page is to clear the browser cache. Restarting the server has no effect.
Once the servlet has responded with ANY exception, it is not possible to get it to report a ServletException (which is incorrectly reported as a 500 anyway) unless the cache is cleared. Restarting the server has no effect.
In the case where the servlet throws ServletException, it has no root exception. The servlet 2.3 spec states that if ServletException is thrown but cannot be found in the error pages, the root excpetion will be extracted and the error page list traversed again. Knowing that the RuntimeException error page is correct shown when RuntimeException is throwm, I have nested this inside the ServletException, however error page for http error 500 is still shown.
I don't believe this is a WLS 8.1 problem, as the console shows that the correct exception is thrown each time. this is backed up by the fact that the correct exception page is thrown when the cache is cleared regardless of what exception was previousdly thrown by the servlet. This excludes ServletException which is always incorrectly thrown as a 500.

Adobe X PDF files converted to jpg, edited and converted back to PDF have ragged, unclear text. I didn't have this problem with Acrobat 9 standard. What is the remedy for this. If this is the best I can expect, I won't be able to use X standard.

Adobe X PDF files converted to jpg, edited and converted back to PDF have ragged, unclear text. I didn't have this problem with Acrobat 9 standard. What is the remedy for this. If this is the best I can expect, I won't be able to use X standard.

I can't imagine any worse workflow than converting to JPEG to edit text, then back to PDF. Text in a PDF is a vector thing, smooth at all resolutions. And JPEG is made for photos. EVERY conversion to JPEG and back loses quality but how much loss there is will vary.
If you must go to an image format, try PNG.

Problem with Acrobat 11 keeps asking to accept EULA

I cannot use Reader because it keeps on asking to accept EULA; Mac OS 10.9, Reader 11 , when downloading it says " by clicking on Install you automatically accept EULA " : I've installed and uninstalled it many times, when I launch it it does not allow me to accept any EULA I'm getting desperate please help

I meant that there isn’t any box where I can accept the terms etc. - when I ‘ve downloaded it said “ by clicking on Install you agree to accept the terms and conditions “
Anyway now I’ve cancelled some plug-ins from the library and it seems it works
If you have a better suggestion kindly let me know
Thank you for your prompt reply

Problems with Quicktime (Q?) in browser

I am having a problem with Quicktime working in my browser (we use Firefox). Quicktime is up to date, but everything in the browser that should be running just comes up as a Q with a question mark in the middle. I have checked the browser settings and everything seems fine. Any ideas?
whoops, just caught the other topic with the same problem....no answers there yet though...we did update our flashplayer and still no help.

Go to QT settings>Browser>Mime settings>Miscellaneous-Miscellaneous file formats and uncheck Flash media.
This has been going on for years and Apple computer refuses to correct the problem. It is beyond belief that Apple continues with this, but they can't market computers to the general public either. They send me e-mails to test their products and software that they want to test on a windows computer. I will consider doing it, but can't, with the Flash screw up going on...

Easier and better ways to solve current problems with Acrobat?

Is there no better and easier way to solve the problems (installation, re-installing and crashing) with Acrobat? I really think that the ball is in Acrobat's corner right now, because I should not (for example) need to deactivate and re-activate my subscription in order to get AcrobatPro XI to work on my computer, let alone deinstalling an older version that (for now) does work, risking that in the end neither of them work. I need the (great) AdobeCloud applications to do my work as a freelancer, and I really cannot afford this kind of trouble with my applications, nore loose time repairing them. These are difficult times as it is.
Regards,
Marc

Sorry, I can't. When I installed it there was no message that said I had to deinstall the old version first, and with other Adobe CC applications there had been no trouble at all, so I installed it with The previous version still on my computer.
After installing, neither of them would start up properly, so I deinstalled version XI, after which the old version worked again, but my Adobe Application Manager does not let me download the XI version a second time, so I cannot try again.
Regards,
Marc

The description of the issue you originally presented isn't something that I've seen happen to Acrobat when installed as a part of Creative Cloud.
Could you provide a specific description of the behavior that occurs when you launch Acrobat XI now?
Thanks,
David

Acrobat X pro - Problem viewing PDF files in web browser

I've recently upgraded to the latest Imac and have experianced one or two teething problems with software compatibility with OS X 10.7.1 Lion (most now resolved)
My latest issue is viewing online PDF's which appear in my browser as just a blank black page. This happens in both Safari and Firefox (both latest versions)
My question is: Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve this?

I was able install and view the files in adobe reader 10.1.1 and in web browser window 7 64 bit machine. But when I go to Edit-preferences-internet and unchecking "display PDF in Browser" , I am not able to view the pdf files in ie 9 browser. I have used this javscript to check for pdf version.
Immediately after installing adobe--
when I do adobe test in ie 9---https://courses.worldcampus.psu.edu/public/diagnostics/Acrobat.html-- launches a test pdf file--Acro_Test.pdf
After unchecking-- it stays in the https://courses.worldcampus.psu.edu/public/diagnostics/Acrobat.html instead of showing test pdf file--Acro_Test.pdf
Tried to go back to "display PDF in Browser"--it is showing it is checked(eventhough I did not check it)
and in ie
it stays in the https://courses.worldcampus.psu.edu/public/diagnostics/Acrobat.html instead of showing test pdf file--Acro_Test.pdf

Problems with Acrobat 7.0 Browser document / close a document

Hi,
I'm trying to write an application in C# which let to preview pdf doc and to print them. For this, I use the Acrobat 7.0 Browser document control but I have some problems with it:
I have a grid with some doc titles and when I select one of them, I want to preview it in the control and to print all the docs that I check.
The problem is that sometimes the control freezes when I'm go from one doc to another one. Also, when I want to print them
(with a loop on the grid: foreach line in the grid
pdrbrowser.printallfit(docname);)
the print command doesn't work, nothing is printed or just the first doc.
I think that is because the doc is locked by the acrobat process, but I don't know how to close it. I don't want to kill the acrord32.exe process because I also open pdf doc with acrobat reader at the same time.

It does sound like you are pushing the control in ways it may not be prepared to handle. Certainly, it isn't expecting to be printing a collection of documents - just one at a time.
Also, you mention that you are on Acrobat 7 - have you tried updating to 8 to see if that improves things?
