    I Have updated IPad to IOS 7.1.1, and also updated Adobe Reader to ver. 11.3.1. When I click on the Adobe icon, I get no files or folders to come up, just a blank screen. I know from my usage indicator on the IPad that I have 36 GB of PDF files resident, which I expected, but how do I access them. I had updated from IOS 5 because Adobe was crashing so often that it made it difficult to work.

    If restarting the app or your iPad/iPhone does not work, we are not aware of any other ways to fix this particular problem.  Uninstalling & reinstalling Adobe Reader may be the only option left.  It will clean up the "inconsistent" application data.  But it is not even guaranteed to fix the problem.
    If you uninstall Adobe Reader (or any other iOS apps), iOS will erase all of the application data including settings/preferences and PDF documents stored locally on your iPad/iPhone.
    We'd highly recommend backing up your PDF documents regularly (not just this time) so that you do not lose them when something goes wrong.
    How to backup and restore PDF documents on your iPad/iPhone using iTunes
    Backup your PDF documents.
    Uninstall Adobe Reader.
    Download and reinstall Adobe Reader from the App Store.
    Alternatively, you can store your PDF documents in cloud storage (e.g. Acrobat.com, Dropbox, Google Drive), which will eliminate the need to backup local files.

  • Having problems updating Adobe Reader MSI from 10.1.0 to 10.1.4

    Hello,
    I have read online that you can slipstream the adobe update into the original 10.1.0 installer.  Here is what I have tried.
    I have downloaded the original 10.1.0 MSI file and ran msiexec /a C:\Adobe\Downloads\AdbeRdr1010_en_US.msi, which during the admin install, I have installed it into C:\Adobe\AIP
    I then run msiexec /a C:\Adobe\AIP\AcroRead.msi /p C:\Adobe\Downloads\AdbeRdrUpd1014.msp, and get the following error message:
    This installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a  valid Windows Installer package.
    If I double click on the MSP file in Windows Explorer, it opens it up and wants to update adobe reader, however I can not get this to work.
    Any assistance is appreciated, I don't know what I am doing wrong, tried on two different systems one 32bit and 64bit.
    Craig.

    When I say deploy I mean deploy to all my PC's in my domain (350+) via AD.
    What I normally do is:
    1. Extract the Adrobe reader .msi package from the .exe by running the following command:
    E:\AdobeRdr\1014_original\AdbeRdr1014_en_US.exe -nos_o"E:\AdobeRdr\1014_original\Extraction\AdbeRdr1014_en_US" -nos_ne
    2. Emulate a Network install of the .msi package by running the following command:
    msiexec /a E:\AdobeRdr\1014_original\Extraction\AdbeRdr1014_en_US\AcroRead.msi
    3. Emulate a Network install of the .msi packing and apply the update by running the following command:
    msiexec /a E:\AdobeRdr\1014_original\1014wUpdate\AcroRead.msi /p E:\AdobeRdr\1014_original\Extraction\AdbeRdr1014_en_US\AdbeRdrUpd1014.msp
    4. Use the Adobe customisation tool to create a custom .mst file
    5. Copy the extracted folders, .msi, .mst and setup.ini to the \\SHARE
    Is there a better way of doing this?
    What it looks like to me is Adobe have not updated the product code on the install files, so when I install the .msi it sees the existing one matches the update and generates the error.
    I look forward to you feed back reguring the above.

  • Problems Updating Adobe Reader AIP 10.1.2 to 10.1.3

    Hi, I managed to roll out Adober Reader 10.1.2 a month or so ago via Group Policy (Software Deploy). I've now found that quite a few PCs suffer from the known printer issue. So I'd like to update our software to 10.1.3.
    I've tried reading through the admin guide but it's slowly melting my brain! And, from what I've read, it doesn't mention much about upgrading a currently installed Adobe Reader.
    What I tried to do was take a copy of our 10.1.2 install folder onto my local PC. I tried copying the 10.1.3 MSP file into this folder and running the msiexec patch command. This just threw up an error about the incorrect version to patch (The upgrade patch cannot be installed...because the program to be upgraded may be missing or the upgrade patch may update a different version). But trying to think back I'm certain this is how I'd patched the original 10.1.0 install with 10.1.2 (this MSP file is still in this folder).
    I think when I originally patched to 10.1.2 I downloaded a copy of the 10.1.0 EXE and using the sfx commands extracted the files and then patched with the MSP file. I've just tried doing this same procedure but patching with the 10.1.3 MSP and this works. However when I try to run the installation (msiexec /i AcroRead.msi TRANSFORMS=AcroRead.mst) I get an error relating to a different version already being installed (Another version of this product is already installed...etc) which it is, I currently have 10.1.2 installed, I would've assumed the installer would be able to intelligently either auto uninstall the current version and install the new one or upgrade it.
    Anyway, after reading a few posts in here I tried adding the new install to our Software Deployment anyway, selecting that it was an upgrade of 10.1.2 and also selecting the option to uninstall 10.1.2. As I'm guessing the option to upgrade it won't work due to the earlier error message. I then tested this new group policy update on a couple of PCs, most had issues trying to apply it (looking in the event log showed a file cannot be found message - all files are present!), eventually after a couple of reboots some do uninstall the old and install the new one. But I'm not convinced, so I've removed it again!
    Have I done something wrong here? I was assuming that the new install would be able to patch the current version installed (so long as it's 10.1.2)
    If what I've done is correct, then what exactly is the point in patching? What's stopping me from just downloading the 10.1.3 install, extracting the files and just running that? Rather than patching up?
    I hope all this makes sense! I appreciate any help.
    Andy

    The admin guide says in multiple places that quarterlies are cumulative to the last MSI. For example, from the AIP Best Practices section:
    "For Adobe Reader 10.x, quarterly updates are cumulative to the latest MSI (e.g. 10.1 replaces the base release of 10.0) and security patches are cumulative to the last quarterly. Thus, 10.0 > 10.1 is valid. 10.0 > 10.0.3 > 10.1 isn’t."
    This kb says the same thing: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/update-patch-acrobat-reader-10.html
    So, the correct order is 10.1 > 10.1.3 with no 10.1.2 in between.

  • Problems with uninstalling and updating Adobe Reader 9.x

    I have an issue with updating Adobe Reader 9.4.5. I get regularly automatic update routines and success reports after I ran them. However, when I open Adobe Reader it still shows up as version 9.4.5. So I tried to uninstall Adobe Reader completely. First of all, in the software panel two Adobe Reader versions show up: 9.4.5 & 9.3.5. Of those two, I could only uninstall the Adobe Reader 9.4.5. The 9.3.5 version doesn't sucessfully enter into an uninstall routine. As my computer expertise is limited, I don't know if there are other ways to remove that program successfully. Another odd thing is that when I open Adobe Reader, the version displayed is 9.4.5 although that was the one which seems to have uninstalled correctly. As you see, it's all a bit of a mess and I would appreciate your help with addressing this issues. Many thanks in advance.

    You may want to try the following.
    Remove  all traces of Reader (not only the program) from your system using  the  Windows Installer Cleanup Utility. This is no longer supported by  Microsoft because it can produce problems with Win 7, but you can still download it from from places like
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    Then, download the Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    and perform a clean install.

  • Whenever firefox is opened, it freezes. This has occurred after I updated adobe reader recently. What's wrong with firefox and what can I do?

    Recently firefox will open but then freeze immediatly. This has occurred after I updated adobe reader. I'm not sure if that affected firefox, but the time period fits. Restarting my computer has no effect on firefox.

    The Adobe DLM is not required for Adobe products to work. You can uninstall it by opening the Windows Control Panel and selecting Add or Remove Programs. In the list of programs select Adobe DLM (may be listed as Adobe Download Manager) and click on remove.

  • Can't update Adobe Reader 10.01 (Mac Version)

    I am running OS 10.6.7 on a MacPro (MacPro 4,1: 8 core - - 2mx 2.93 FHz Quad-Core Xeon). I installed Adobe Reader 10.01 uneventufully. However, many times when on the web Safari says it can't find Adobe Reader to read a document and I have to locate Adobe Reader manually. This didn't happen until after I updated to Acrobat 10.01. Thinking that this might be a bug, I looked for an update for Acrobat Reader. But when I attempt to update Adobe Reader to 10.03, it goes through the motions and then gives the follolwing error message:
    "The update could not be applied because the Adobe Reader application contents were modified since the original installation."
    "Please reinstall Adobe Reader and check for updates again."
    "Error 1301"
    I followed directions, reinstalled Adobe Reader and immediately afterwards attempted to install the update. Same error message.
    I threw out the old version of Adobe Reader 10.01, downloaded it again, reinstalled it and then attempted the update, Same error message.
    I've repaired permissions, used AppleJack to clean caches, used DiskWarrior to rebuild the directory. Same error message when attempting to update Adobe Reader.
    Any suggestion?
    Thanks.

    REFRESH - I have this same problem. I would like to update this, since I understand there are various security fixes included with each update of Adobe Reader. Is this correct? If no one has an answer, then how can I trash the updater so I at least don't get this annoying message anymore??? It pops up EVERY STINKING DAY!!!

    http://helpx.adobe.com/content/dam/help/attachments/Acrobat_Reader_Rel easeNote_10.1.3.pdf says it dropped old Firefox versions.
    It's not about that, I think, as I got the exactly same bug with Firefox 12.0 / OS X 10.7.3 after the last Adobe Reader update.
    However, the release notes are interesting, see p. 6: "If you still require a 32-bit solution, this update also supports Mozilla Firefox for Macintosh when it is opened in 32-bit mode." 
    So, it seems that the last update is pushing the inline viewer (NPAPI?) plugin to 64-bit Firefox, even that it's known that it wouldn't work. In Mozilla forums some had tried to fix this by forcing Firefox to open in 32-bit mode (via Finder -> Applications -> right-click Firefox -> Get Info -> check Open in 32-bit mode), but I'd rather see the bug itself fixed.
    Interesting. Where are you seeing this in Mozilla forums? I didn't see anyone talk about this Adobe Reader problem in Firefox newsgroups on news.mozilla.org news server even after I posted my issue.
    It's in this bug report: http://support.mozilla.org/fi/questions/925055 - confirmed already by 230 people, by the way...
    Sorry to hear that the 32-bit workaround didn't work for you. (I haven't even tested it yet myself, just disabled the plug-in altogether to get the pdf files even loaded to Preview...)
