Reader doesn't auto open when using save as in Word2007

Can anybody help with this little problemette !
I originally had Adobe Reader 9.2 that would open automatically when I created a PDF from Word2007 using the Save as command.
But now it won't open automatically.
I (maybe stupidly) installed Adobe Reader 5 to try to open an old PDF that I was sent, but unistalled it when I discovered that the file was corrupt.
Now when I try to create a PDF using Word2007 running on Window Vista, Adobe Reader 9.2 will not launch automatically.
Any thoughts ?
Cheers

  • PDF's in Acrobat Reader X will not open when using the browser, Internet explorer opertes all ok? Mozella 4 is the default browser! Windows XP Home ed with all latest updates!

    When using the Mozella Firefox 4 browser and the NEW version Adobe Reader X, PDF's online will not ever open. After 1-3 minuites, I eventually get a message the Adobe reader is running, but need to close and try again! I get same results when trying again.
    Internet Explorer operates and opens the online PDF's all ok and the Adobe Reader X seems to operate all else ok!
    I think, but not sure, that this issue appeared when the Adobe Reader updated from the older version 9 or so to the NEW Adobe Reader X version about 1 or 2 weeks ago, but not sure. I just remember that Mozella always worked ok previously to the Adobe Reader X version for opening online PDF's last month, etc.
    Note that I said that Internet Explorer browser operates ok Using the New automatically upgraded Adobe Reader X for viewing PDF"S! (adobe notified me that the new version 10 (X) was available for updating, etc) I also just discovered that google chrome browser opens the online PDF's ok!
    I have not trying re-storing the computer to the previous month, etc, since the issue seems to be with Mozella not liking the Adobe Reader X version and Internet Explored browser operating ok!
    Any ideas????

    I had the same problem and my solution was to disable the PDF extension that came with Firefox 4 which belongs to another company. I found out that it wast interfering with ReaderX. I unabled it and restarted Firefox. I have had no problems since then. Go to Tools, Add-On and click on Extensions and disable the PDF extension. I hope this helps

    Hi Parisian tiger
    What happens when you try to open any file from the same location where you are saving the file using Save As command ?
    Will it be possible to join a connect session with me ?

  • Why can't a new folder be created within my user home directory when using 'Save As' in Mountain Lion?

    Hi,
    So I want to create a new folder within my main user home directory (not the root directory) just for my developer-related files? I can do this from Finder, although it does prompt me for my password to do so. However, when using 'Save As' from any app, the 'New Folder' button is greyed out when I select my user home directory. So I have to create the folder in Finder then Save As.
    Is this normal behavior? Is OSX discouraging me from adding things to my user home directory by making it less convenient? Is there a good reason it would be discouraging me from creating new folders there? If not, is there a setting that I can change to allow the creation of new folders from the Save As prompt?
    Thanks for your help,
    B

    You may need to rebuild permissions on your user account. To do this,boot to your Recovery partition (holding down the Command and R keys while booting) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In Terminal, type:  ‘resetpassword’ (without the ’s), hit return, and select the admin user. You are not going to reset your password. Click on the icon for your Macs hard drive at the top. From the drop down below it select the user account which is having issues. At the bottom of the window, you'll see an area labeled Restore Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. Click the reset button there. The process takes a few minutes. When complete, restart.

  • How stop PS6 from removing the DPI value from an image when using "save for the web"?

    How stop PS6 from removing the DPI-value from an image when using "save for the web"?
    Example:
    - Open a tif image, that contains a dpi value (resolution).
    - Use the splice tool in PS6.
    - Export the slices with "Save for web", as gif-files.
    Then the dpi value is removed, the gif files has no dpi value (it's empty).
    How can we stop PS6 from removing the dpi value when using "save for web"?
    OR:
    When using the slice tool, how can we save the sliced pieces without PS removing the dpi value?

    you can make your art go a little bit over the bounds. or you can make sure your artboart and art edges align to pixels

  • U/tube videos open when using Safari but will not open when using Firefox.

    u/tube videos open fine when using Safari but will not open when using Firefox. With Firefox I get the unhighlighted Quicktime symbol with a question mark in the center. WHY?? Any help appreciated --- Toroya

    Hmmmm, strange you view YouTube in Safari & not FF. Which version of FF are you using?
    Try the following:

  • Problems with COLOUR when using "save as".

    Running on Mac, get dulled out and purple colour tone when using "Save As".  When using "Save for Web.." colours are OK.  Colour profiles and images coming into Raw are set as sRGB. Can anyone help??   I do have to convert to 8 bit to save as JPG.  Any help appreciated.

    The Print version is what a ProPhoto file looks like when viewed as if it was sRGB - i.e. in a non-color managed application. So there's still a ProPhoto profile here.
    Here you can see how the colors shift by going between sRGB and ProPhoto (using assign and/or convert). Your original is in the middle. You can see it's the very same color shift:
    If you convert to sRGB and you still get the same outcome, which you shouldn't, maybe the preferences are corrupt. Or maybe user error and you still have ProPhoto embedded.

  • Unable to open https sites. can open when using firefox in safe mode.

    Mozilla Firefox has been an exceptional browser, however in the last update I have experienced problems when trying to open https sites. They will not open and then time out. I do not have this problem when using Internet explorer. I have contacted customer service at the problem sites, and they have said other customers have also experienced this problem. I have gone into options and have changed various settings to see if this would solve the problem. It didn't, your response would be appreciated.. Please note if I use firefox in safe mode I can access these sites? My E-mail as follows: [email protected]

    Did you perhaps install an extension to open sites with https
    # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press "Enter"
    # Use Find ("Ctrl+F") to look for '''https'''
    One such extension is "HTTPS-Everywhere"
    As you probably know Firefox Safe Mode disables extensions and some preferences.

  • Getting prompted to Save As when using Save option

    We would like to deploy Reader XI with Protected Mode enabled. We have noticed that when using the Save option the user receives a prompt to Save As instead. I understand this is a security feature to basically grant Reader/Acrobat permission to save to this location.
    Issue is that we have in house software that opens the PDF using Reader allowing the user to make markups and then save, but if the user saves the file to a different location this will cause the in house software to fail. Older version of Reader with Protected Mode disabled allows just the save to be used and the original file location to be preserved.
    Is there anyway to white list this Directory so that Reader can save to it without a Save As prompt?
    Only fix I know of currently is to disable Protected Mode but we would like to avoid that if possible
    Thanks

    There is a notation in the documentation that may be relevant.
    "Permissions granted by other features often overlap. For example, cross domain policies, internet access settings in Trust Manager, and certificate trust settings for certified documents sometimes interact so that the most permissive setting takes precedence. Users should TEST THEIR CONFIGURATION prior to deployment."
    Have you checked the possible overlapping features?

  • Difference in PDF page size when using Save versus Save As

    I am having a problem when I save PDFs from Illustrator with the page size changing
    When saving as a PDF from Illustrator CC (Mac OS 10.6.8) the page size of the resultant PDF should be the size of the artboard.
    Create New File
    Save as PDF (Illustrator Default setting)
    Open PDF in Acrobat
    The page size equals the size of the artboard
    Open same file back into Illustrtor
    Edit the file in some way (draw a box outside of the artboard)
    Reopen the file back into Acrobat, now the Page size is different from the artboard.
    If I resave the file using save as, essentially overwriting the old file, the artboard is back as it should be.
    It is almost as if Save As is using the artboard, but Save uses artwork bounds.
    This appears to be a glitch but I have not been able to isolate the cause. Tried trashing prefs, didn't help. Had th same problem in CS5, couldn't figure it out then either, so I don't think this is version specific problem.
    This problem is specific to my workstation, as my co-workers do not have the same problem, unless they start working on a file I created. Could be some kind of virus like problem.
    Anyone had expeirences with this issue? I had really hoped upgrading to CC would have cleared this up but it seems to be following me, which is why I thought trashing prefs would have cleared it up.

    Finally found someone with the exact same problem. Our entire department of 7 people is having this same issue. It is strange becasue we can't isolate where it starts.
    If we save our PDF back to .ai file,
    close and reopen Illustrator CC,
    open the .ai file and save to PDF again,
    then the file is "clean" and works as expected.
    But then somewhere down the line we get another file that does the same thing. Then any file we open after that will have the same problem, unless we repeat the process I mentioned. This has been consistent between Illustrator CS6 and Illustrator CC.
    This started happening about 2-3 weeks ago (mabe longer?) and is killing us when we run our PDF to our step and repeat workflows because they use the trim and bleed size for placement and this is being ignored. I am looking for a solution as well.

  • Save As Page displays below Adobe Reader X in Modal window when selecting SAVE

    Reports are being viewed in the explorer using Adobe Reader this opens in a Modal window which is a requirement. When selecting the 'Save a Copy'  button from any location on the page using the floating toolbar or standard toolbar the Save As page is being opened under the Model window and the focus remains on the main page so the save location or any button on the page cannot be used.
    There is a work around selecting any option that launched a popup screen from the reader such as Document Properties and then the page is closed selecting Save a copy will open the page on the top,
    This only seems to be a issue when using IE9 when running the same application and Adobe reader version in IE8 no issue is seen. Other popup screen such as Print have no issue and as mentioned once one of these screens are launched the save as displays on top.
    Current version of
    Adobe Reader 10.1.1,
    IE9 9.0.8112.16421
    Windows 7 64bit.
    Using Adobe Reader 9 seems to have similar issues and the page needs to be closed via the task manager.
    We require the webpage to display in a Modal window is there any suggestions on how to ensure the Save As Page is displayed on the top in focus.

    Reader cannot rotates pages in a document, but it can rotate the view. This is not something that can be saved. Adobe Acrobat can rotate pages and save the document, but not Reader.

  • Color shift (lightening) when using "Save for Web & Devices..."

    Can someone please let me know why I'm getting a color shift (the entire image lightens noticably) when I export an image or animated gif with "Save for Web & Devices...". It happens on PCs and Macs, and with both CS3 and CS2.
    I've been using this feature (flawlessly until a few months ago) long enough to realize that there are several settings to adjust the color table, dithering, web snap, etc., but adjusting these settings don't seem to fix the problem. When I use "Save As..." the color shift doesn't occur, and that's been my workaround, but I'm currently trying to save a few animated gifs, which must be saved with "Save for Web & Devices..." in order to retain the animation.
    Please help!! Many thanks.

    Ah ha! I thought so. The only reason I can speak on this topic at all is because of what I was forced to learn when I started using a Dell LCD flatscreen.
    As mentioned earlier, most monitors are pretty close to sRGB, which made web work somewhat easier. However, it seems recently some so-called "wide gamut" monitors have come to market, including the recent crop of Dells. The new Dells can produce a gamut that is closer to Adobe RGB than sRGB. This means -- speaking loosely -- it can produce brighter and more saturated colours than an "sRGB" type monitor.
    RGB numbers, in the context of a defined colour space, represent an "actual" real life colour. A very bright red in sRGB colour space may be represented by r255b0g0, but that same "actual" red colour is represented in the wider Adobe RGB colour space by r219b0g0. Adobe RGB, being wider than sRGB, can include still brighter reds than sRGB's brightest red, hence where sRGB hits a roof at r255, Adobe RGB can keep going higher.
    Imagine two ladders, each with ten steps on it. The Adobe RGB ladder is taller than the sRGB ladder, even though they both have ten steps. The 9th step is higher (i.e. brighter) on the Adobe RGB ladder than on the sRGB ladder. So if an image contains the RGB values of r219b0g0, well if you assign it to sRGB, it will not be a very bright red. If you assign it to Adobe RGB, it will be a brighter red, because that "ladder step" (like the 9th step) is higher than the same step in sRGB.
    This is why your image appears brighter when viewed in SFW and in web browsers. Photoshop knows it's supposed to be using sRGB colour space, but SFW and web browsers DOESN'T, and so it just assigns your monitor colour space, which with these Dell monitors is wider than sRGB.
    I think the Dell monitor is fine...I still highly recommend purchasing some type of hardware calibration utitily (one that has a thingy that attaches to the screen to measure the light being emitted). Properly calibrate and profile your monitor, trust what you see in Photoshop, convert to sRGB for web images, and forget the rest. Either way, your images will look "good" on some people's monitors and "bad" on others.
