Reader 8 and 9 installed

My computer (running Windows 7 Home Premium) shows I have both Reader 8 and 9 installed. Is this how it should be? I think 8 was installed for some software I had at my job that would only run on it. Should I uninstall both and then install the newest version?

Yes, uninstall both (using http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html), then reinstall the latest version.

My free Adobe subscription is expired. I tried uninstalling the Reader and installing the new free Reader, but my system will not let me open a file and states I need to purchase the Adobe Reader. Any other way to view a PDF file?

Thank you.

I am trying to download Adobe Reader, I have Windows 7 on my PC. Every time I get the download, I click on it to install the program, and I get the usual messages but I never get the install message. When I try the download again, I get a message telling me only one copy of the program can go on the computer. When I check the program list, it is not there. I have to restore my computer before I can attempt the download and install again. I have tried this at least 6 times but cannot install Adobe Reader. Please help me out with this. I really like this product and prefer to use it. I had o originally delete the program, due to an update conflict.

You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:
http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

Why is it that when I am trying to install an adobe product, I get 33% of the way through and then it gives me an error "unable to load metafile"?? It happened with Reader and now with Flashplayer. With the Reader, I was able to find a different install

Why is it that when I am trying to install an adobe product, I get 33% of the way through and then it gives me an error "unable to load metafile"?? It happened with Reader and now with Flash player. With the Reader, I was able to find a different installation link using the troubleshooting guide. I cannot find the same with flash player. Please tell me how to install Flash player because there is a website that I cannot even view without it. BTW That is annoying that I cannot even see the website without flash player
my system is XP

Use these installers:
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
Flash Player for Mac OS X
For Adobe Reader go to http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

Now what?

Unless you've recently attempted to downgrade iTunes this is probably a sign of a corrupt library file. See Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash.

I installed Firefox 3.6. Since then, I am unable to open pdf documents in Firefox. I get a black page. I tried opening the same document in Internet Explorer. It worked fine. I recently installed Nuance's pdf reader and thought that might be the problem.

== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

How about if you right click on the PDF and select Save Link As..., and then open it locally from within Reader? Does it work ok then? That might be a workaround until the issue within the browser is resolved.

I recently loaded OSX mavericks on my Imac. I now find I cannot open any Adobe products from CS5. The error message reads " to open Adobe illustrator CS5.app, you need to install a JAva SE 6 runtime. Would you like to check and install one?

Would you like to check and install one? I try to install but get the error" download error". As far as i know I'm using Adobe Java 7. None of my CS5 suite works anymore............and i really dont want to upgrade to a monthly cloud service fee as i hate this policy with a passion.

This goes for Dreamweaver CC on Mavericks!!!!! THANK YOU!
I couldn't launch Dreamweaver CC. An error told me to install "java se 6 runtime". But when I clicked OK I got another error telling me there is a network problem! I found this forum post on CS6 products, so I tried the download link, installed java 6 and presto, it worked! Thanks!

How can I be sure Acrobat Reader will install on the disk I want it to and not on my C:\ drive?

Hi Guys,
I have a large desktop system running under XP Pro + SPs 1,2 and 3 that has several hard disk drives,
I like to keep my operating system on my C:\ drive, which is a small drive and over half full and all my applications on my much larger F:\ drive.
I now need to install either Acrobat Reader v 10 or else Reader and Air seperately.
How can I either;
ensure that these both install on my F:\ drive? or
if they insist on installing on my C:\ drive, can I move them to my F:\ drive without creating problems?
Regards,
BroomstickPilot

Hello,
Once you start the Adobe Reader X installation you will get a Windows which says : Extracting Installation Files, once its sucessfully Extracted the file you will get this window :
Just click on Change Destination Folder button and you will get this window :
From the top click on the Drop Down Menu and you will get the other Drives (As per your computer you will get F:)
You can select the Destination in F: drive
Hope it helps !!
Thanks,
Vikram

I just downloaded the newest version of Itunes. I can't delete anything and I can't sync to my MP3 player. I tried deleting it and installing an earlier version of Itunes but it can't read the library. Please help.

With iTunes 11 on PCs the drop-down menus are hidden by default - control-B should get the menus to show
This screenshot is from a Mac, but it should be similar on a PC :

How to open Reader in firefox tab when both acrobat and reader are installed.

I would like to open pdf files in firefox using Adobe Acrobat Reader.
I have both Acrobat Pro or whatever its called and Acrobat Reader installed.
Presently going to firefox's tools, options, then selecting the file types option I cannot select any plugin to open my pdf's besides what's labeled as "adobe acrobat" but which executes an in-tab instance of Adobe Acrobat Pro, despite the ambiguous language on the plugin which I suspect stems from Adobe's evolving and confusing conventions regarding just what Adobe Reader, Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Acrobat Reader, and Adobe Acrobat Pro really is.
Anyways, how to make pdfs open in-tab instances of Adobe Acrobat Reader while I have both the Reader and the Pro installed?
Is there a sepperate plugin I need or something? Any way to get the "adobe acrobat plugin" open acrobat reader and not acrobat pro?
Any help is very Appreciated
I can not find this point explained in any of the documentation adobe supplies

Adobe Reader won't open Tried installing updated Adobe Reader and error came up in the process and told me to contact software manufacturer. Could I uninstall current Adobe Reader and then try installing the current AR? Any ideas?

My Adobe Reader wouldn't download tickets. Tried opening Adobe Reader application but it would not open. I saw my Adobe Reader needed to be updated, so I attempted to install new Adobe Reader. When it came to finalizing, it said there is an error and can't do. Any ideas? I have no functioning Adobe reader. Should I uninstall old Adobe Reader and then try installing the updated AR?

(Had to step away & do things) I can't even open up the Adobe Reader application to uninstall; get message it won't open. And now have more things needing to be downloaded to print. Any ideas on how to open the app, so I can uninstall.

Unable to download and install Adobe Reader

While trying to download and install Adobe Reader, when I click on OPEN, nothing happens. When I click on SAVE, I receive the message download failed. When I retry, a file is downloaded; however, I am unable to open the file. I am using Windows 8 and Internet Explorer 11.

I am using WIN XP PRO SP 3.0 32 bit on a desktop....
I have tried 3 times to re-install Adobe Reader for Windows, but it keeps on telling me that the installation was unsuccessful...I have tried to find out more, I seem to have met all the requirements, and yes I tried that link, too.....
Any ideas? I know this Q & A was last year, but maybe you might have found an answer for me, as I uninstalled my current version before I started, now I wish I had left it alone....but I was trying to fix another problem on Firefox, which said I had to re-install anything from Adobe, to see if it would fix my little problem, now I have a bigger problem!!
The 1st problem was I cannot upload pics on Facebook, now I find I cannot upload a pic for Adobe, (on my profile page)!!!! I can still insert/upload a pic on Word, however....
I do hope you might be able to help me, as I am a novice when it comes to fixing problems....
Many thanks....Peace & Love
Sylvia
