Problem with recent Acrobat Standard subscription and opening up PDF's

After doing a 1-month trial for Adobe XI Pro, I completed online purchase yesterday (11/8/14) for annual subscription for Adobe Standard.
And now I can no longer open or read any PDFs on my computer. A prompt comes up that trial period has ended and I need to subscribe (which I have done). I did not expect this and am very frustrated. Is there a lag time for processing the subscription, or is this something related to updates of  older version Adobe? I have Windows Vista.

Hi create shortcut,
Acrobat XI isn't supported on Windows Vista, so that could be what the problem is (see Tech specs | Adobe Acrobat XI Pro). Although, it sounds like you were using Acrobat Pro XI on Vista, is that correct?
Your subscription is indeed, active. So, you should be able to simply sign in and use Acrobat Standard (but know that Adobe can't support any technical issues that might arise when using it on an unsupported OS).
Best,
Sara

  • Im having problems with my safari Web browser  to opening/viewing pdf files.

    Im having problems with my safari Web browser to opening/viewing pdf files. I installed the 8.1.2 version But then when I click to open any PDF it says that Adobe PDF Viewer cannot find a compatible Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader to view this PDF. Please select one.
    i can see the adobe reader but can not select it .

    did you find a solution to this? my safari history is full of
    explicit sites that i have not visited. i see a lot of info on how to remove it, but none on how to figure out how they got there.

  • Problems with Safari, Acrobat, Intel Macs, and Life Cycle Form Mgr.

    Here is my problem:
    A Mac user using 10.4.10, with Acrobat Standard Ed v.7.0.9 installed,
    is having to approve purchase forms through Adober Life Cycle Form Manager
    through Safari 2.0.4. When trying to approve the PDF forms, it tells her
    she needs to have Acrobat v.7 installed, and only shows a white page.
    Went back and launched Acrobat 7.0.9, and did the "Detect and Repair"
    setting to verify the Adobe PDFViewer plugin was installed.
    Said it was, checked the Library/Internet Plugins folder and it was.
    Launched Safari, Safari's list of plug-ins does not show it as being installed.
    Trashed the Safari .plist file, relaunched Safari, same thing.
    Read on the Apple site that people were experiencing similar issues,
    Read on Adobe's site that for Intel Macs, should be using v. 8.01.
    Downloaded the 8.01 Acrobat Reader and installed it.
    re-launched Safari, success, it says the plugin, v.8.01 is installed.
    Go back to Adobe Life Cycle Forms Manager, go to view a PDF,
    at 100% screen size, PDF shows correctly. Zoom in on details,
    PDF goes blank, will not show details. Zoom back out,
    PDF goes white page, no info displayed.
    My Questions:
    1. is it an issue with Adobe Life Cycle Forms Manager and Safari on Intel Macs?
    2. Is there a way to get a proper plug in for Safari, so that Acrobat will read the PDFs
    instead of the default Preview?
    thanks in Advance

    anybody running ALCFM and Acrobat 8 with an Intel Mac,

  • Problems with Reader 10.1.3 when open a PDF

    Hi ...
    Every time I try to open a PDF file in my Windows 7 (64 bits) the Reader freeze for a while.
    Sometimes passing 2 to 5 minutes the Reader respond an I can see the document, but sometimes the time may be 10 minutes ...
    This situation occurs every time I try to open a PDF, with differents applications.
    It seems like the Reader is trying to find something when it opens a file, but I don't know where configure to fix this situation.
    Any suggestion ?
    Thanks in advance ...

    Hi neohal,
    Does the issue exist with a particular PDF or with every PDF on your system?
    Please try using this PDF: http://helpx.adobe.com/content/dam/help/attachments/Acrobat_Reader_ReleaseNote_10.1.3.pdf
    And what exactly was meant when you said : "This situation occurs every time I try to open a PDF, with differents applications."

  • Problems with adobe acrobat standard 8

    I am having problems converting my work into PDF. I have been using this program for years. I have windows Vista and when I click on convert the save screen shows up and I click save then the  working little screen comes up with the fill bar and the fill bar fills to about 20% then disappears. The file does not convert.

    May i suggest  you go to Acrobat Preferences->International, in Application Lauguage drop-down list, select "Choose at application startup" and then relaunch Acrobat. Language Selection dialog should be shown up to let you choose either English, Brazilian, Portuguese, or Norwegian language.
    Hope this help.

  • Two problems with recent kernels - KMS resolution and fan speed

    Two issues have arisen since kernel26-2.6.32-6.  One is that that the boot process and all consoles only use approx. two-thirds of the screen, with the correct console font - as if the resolution is being detected as 800x600 rather than 1440x900.  The other, which may or may not be connected but also cropped up in that upgrade, is that my main laptop fan jumps to 100% speed near the start of booting, and stays there.  Downgrading to 2.6.32-5 solves both problems, which persist through to 2.6.32-9.  (That I normally boot into a custom kernel which I haven't bothered upgrading is why I've not tried to pin down the problem(s) until now.)  Any ideas of what might be going on?  I've got an Aspire 7730 with an Intel Mobile 4 chipset, using i915.

    Returning after another gap, still relying on a now-fairly-old kernel...

    chech if the svideo or tvout is being enabled.
    if there are more than one display enabled, the console will take the space of the smallest..
    This seems plausible - unfortunately, I don't have access to any external device to check directly what's happening - where should I look in logs or the file system to see what's happening?
    under i915, you have to pass to the kernel: video=VGA-1:off
    or whatever the display is.
    This, and VGA-0 or 2, make no difference.
    about the fan thing, if you can bisect that and report the commit that actually breaks your fan, they will probably fix it for future versions
    I've tried and failed, and so have resorted to posting a rather unhelpful bug report - http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/19017

  • How do I download an Acrobat Standard subscription?

    OK I'm being thick. I've just purcahsed an Acrobat Standard subscription and now i cna't download it...! Help!

    Hi creative,
    No worries! When you say you can't download it, do you mean that you're not sure where to find the download? See the Downloads and Serial Numbers section in Adobe Store | Online order and payment FAQ.
    Or that you get an error when you try to download it?  For that, see Troubleshoot download problems.
    If you're still having trouble, please provide some details about the problem (error message, if any; what operating system you're using; description of what happens when you try to download, and so on).
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Best,

  • I get this message when I try to open .pdf files in Mozilla: There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running, please exit and try again. (1014:1014)

    What can I do to get this to work?

    We were getting the same error on a Win 7 machine which had Acrobat 7 (running in compatability mode) and Reader X installed.  When the user was trying to open the link from an email the error 'There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat.....(0:521) would appear and the pdf would not load.
    Investigating the problem I can across an article to uncheck the option "Display PDF in browser" (in the application choose Edit -> Preferences -> Internet).  Undertaking this procedure in Acrobat Reader X however, I could not uncheck this and the path the app was showing was for Acrobat 7!?!
    Therefore, opened Acrobat 7 and undertook the same procedure.  Unchecked the "Display PDF in browser" (in the application choose Edit -> Preferences -> Internet) which I was able to do, saved and closed the application.
    Rechecked Acrobat X and the "Display PDF in browser" could be deselected and the path was now for ..\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe
    Retried the original email with the link to the pdf and it now opens without error.

  • There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and try again.

    We have Adobe Reader 8.1.3 set to open in the browser.
    We are trying to open PDF files within IE Browser. While opening multiple documents in the IE Browser, we get "There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and try again." error, once we click on the "OK" button, PDF file opens in the Adobe reader. This happens randomly while some files open up in IE Browser and some files get the above mentioned error message and open in the Adobe Reader.
    We need to open all the PDF files in the IE Browser. Any input is greatly appreciated.

    I may be better off without the tool bar, but I have found anohter solution;
    .  Open Adobe Reader,
                go to edit menu,
                under Preferences
                go to Internet, uncheck "Display pdf in browser"
    The pdf files then open, but not in the browser

    There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running please exit and try again. (0:521)
    Although I have found other threads in this forum relating to this error - none of the fixes appear to work. I've not found precisely the same error number (0:521), might I need a different fix for this? Has anyone else had the same error?
    Just to note, this appears to be an issue with Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7 while viewing pdfs 'in-browser' i.e. using the plugin. Other versions of IE on other machines and FF on the same machine work fine on the same pdfs. It also works if you right click the pdf, download and view it in Acrobat Reader 'locally'.
    Any help greatly appreciated, I'm stumped.
