Reader has overriden my pro v.11 default settings--how do I disable reader short of uninstalling it

I have acrobat pro v.11; I downloaded and installed the update to the Adobe Reader. I no long have all the functionality that I have with Pro 11, unless I specifically open open the .pdf in v. 11. In other words, adobe readers default functions have taken over. short of installing the reader, Is there some other way I can disable reader so that my Pro retains its default position when working with a .pdf document.

Thanks. For the benefit of others who may be reading this post, go to the general category and click the "select default pdf handler" found at the bottom of the page.

How do I restore Lightroom 3 to its default settings?

I have recently somehow removed the skin softening effect in Lightroom and am unable to get it back. I would like to restore Lightroom to its default settings and recover this feature. I tried uninstalling the software and then reinstalling however, that did not fix the problem. I appreciate any help that can be provided.
Thank you in advance for your time!

Edit the Preferences>Presets Tab>Click on "Restore Local Adjustment Presets".

HT2506 I prefer Preview as my default reader. Somehow Adobe Reader has locked itself as the default. How do I reset back to Preview?

I prefer Preview as my default reader. Somehow Adobe Reader has locked itself as the default. How do I reset back to Preview?

First order of priority - Establish what platform is in use. In this case: MacBook Air with Trac Pad, no Mouse.
Second - Establish Operating System in use. In this case: OX 10.8.3.
Third - Establish, as best as you are able, the parameters in which you have been attempting a work-around and, to include mention of, any other secondary software program capable of becoming a default other than, in this case, Preview.
Fourth - State the problem: Adobe Reader somehow automatically has become the Default PDF viewer.
Here's my answer: When a trac pad not a mouse is in use - Select the PDF you will be opening; don't open it, Select it. At this juncture, tap COMMAND - I (Unfortunately Apple has no Drop Down Menu motion to achieve this operation that I can determine); at this point you will get this:
Click on "Open with: " If you see Adobe Reader there in lies the problem. So, simply click the "up/down" arrows on the Selection Window, and from there click on Preview. From there on Preview will be your Default program.
Thank you to everyone who helped in reply to my initial query.

Purchased acrobat pro but keeps defaulting to adobe reader

Purchased Acrobat Pro but keeps defaulting to Adobe Reader

First things first, let's get Acrobat running. When you get the "trial expired" notice, it's because Acrobat doesn't know you have a subscription. To tell it, you have to sign in to tell it you have a license.

'the preferences file is corrupt and has been reset to the default settings' - cs4 Mac

greetings!
every time i start illustrator i encounter a new error.
"the preferences file is corrupt and has been reset to the default settings."
"the corrupt file will be backed up as Adobe illustrator Prefs.err"
this problem manifested after i added some more .ai and .ase files to my swatches directory. i do not believe anything else changed.
not sure how to diagnose the problem. is there a debug mode or something? perhaps an offending file.
an option would be to try remove each added swatch file or folder individually, but this would be a very very time consuming process for me.
i use cs4 on a Macbook pro running Snow Leopard - 10.6.2 and would appreciate your advice.
thank you

s,
Every time you close down Illy, the current preferences (which may have been changed while you worked on files) are saved, and every time you start up Illy, those preferences will be used.
Usually, preference corruption probably occurs randomly, caused by the OS, but if something in your files change the preferences to something that is not viable you will get an error like that.
You may press Cmd+Option+Shift during startup, which will replace the current preferences with the defaults, and probably you will get rid of the error message. It is probably not a cure, though.
If the error is persistent, the cure would be to get rid of the offending things in the files you work with.

Keeping Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro as the Default .PDF viewer

Ok,
So with all the new vulnerabilities with Adobe reader, our company is try to stay with the current updates of Adobe Reader. The problem I am running into with patching all the workstations is that we have a large user community that uses Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro as their default .pdf viewer etc. When patching all workstations with the latest Adobe Reader it changes the default to Reader.
Has anyone had this issues? Or is there away to keep Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro the default when upgrading the Reader?
I'm thinking of removing Reader all together on the workstations that have Pro.
Thanks

That is the Adobe recommended and supported setup.
Too many problems arise when you have those two Adobe products on the same machine.

Mac pro 3,1 default fan speed?

Hey guys, ive been messing around with SMC fan Controller over the years, and have increased minimum fan speeds due to hotter ambient room temps, or simply because i was running extended cpu intensive activities. Good to take precaution since the 3,1s are known for increasing fan speed after things have already gotten too hot. This can lead to overheating. At some point within the SMC fan Controller app, i changed the "default" fan choice higher instead of creating a new blank custom fan setting before choosing my fan speeds. My problem now is that i dont know what the default settings were. i think one was 500, 600, 600, 800 RPM maybe? No idea.
its is a 8 core 3.2 earl 2008 3,1 Mac Pro Desktop. This has different fans than all other mac pros so this question is 3,1 specific.
I think the four fans are labeled:
Power supply
I/O
CPU
Intake
not entirely sure because i am away from teh computer at the moment.
Thanks

smcFanControl's preferences are located in /Users/<user>/Library/Preferences as com.eidac.smcFanControl2.plist. I believe that if you move that to the desktop and restart, a default plist will be rebuilt for your particular Mac. If that doesn't fix it, you can always put the plist back where it was.
Or, you can simply make smcFanControl not a startup item and then use something like iStatPro to see what the unadjusted fan speeds are because smcFanControl doesn't change the built-in speed defaults, it just overrides them as the lowest fan speeds.

I've uploaded Acrobat XI Pro and it freezes when I'm using it. I uninstalled and re-installed. When I login, it says that it is unable to validate the account and has an option to use the trial. How do I fix this?

I have quicktime player 10 installed on my mac and it is considered the (default) player. How can I get my Quicktime 7 Pro as my default player?

I have quicktime player 10 installed on my mac and it is considered the (default) player. How can I get my Quicktime 7 Pro as my default player? When I downloaded video from my phone, I couldn't hear the sound because Quicktime player 10 automatically opened the file and there was no sound, When I opened the file in quicktime 7 Pro, the audio was fine. I would prefer to have all movie files open automatically using my Pro version. Any suggestions? When I trashed the QT player 10 and clicked on the .3g2 movie file, it didn't automatically open with QT 7 Pro. Instead a window opened wanting to convert the file to Flash. I don't want that to happen.

Try This...
Highlight the file you want Quicktime 7 Pro to open -
Goto File > Get Info or (CMD I)
In the Get Info window, scroll down to "Open with:"
Select the player you want to open the music file.
Click the "Change All..." button if you want to

I just upgraded from Express to Pro. When I open a project in Finder and neither Express nor Pro are running, it always opens in Express. "Open With ..." says Express is the default. How can I make Pro the default instead?

Well, when I've done things like that it always sems like a good idea to keep an application that you know the file will definitely open in...

The EventSystem sub system is suppressing duplicate event log entries for a duration of 86400 seconds. The suppression timeout can be controlled by a REG_DWORD value named SuppressDuplicateDuration under the following registry key: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\EventSystem\EventLog.

hi do the following
1. In Search programs and files (Windows 7) area, type in regedit, and press Enter.
2. If prompted click yes,
3. expand the following HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
4. click the sid that related to your admin profile (if you not sure, click each sid and in turn look to the right hand side of registry editor it will show who that sid is related to one of the registry files should hae in description localhost\admin or
something similair)
5. right click the sid and press delete.
6. restart your machine and log back on with the admin account, this will then rebuild the admin profile... dont worry when it loads and none of your personal settings are saved or files or folders... go to c:\users
in here you will see two folders for the admin account, one will be just admin and the other most likely admin.localhost
i cant remember which one is which but just check both, one will still have all your files and folders in it.
i suggest making a backup of your data before doing this incase something does go wrong, but ive had this happen many times in a domain enviorment and has worked for me everytime.

My Time Capsule has stopped working. Restoring default settings does not work.

I have a 2TB Time Capsule (Model No. A1409). I think that it is approximately 20 months old. It has been working very well until around two months ago, when it began to display the flashing amber light. At that time I performed a hard reset, restoring the default settings. This worked and the capsule continued backing up perfectly for a further three weeks. However, about three weeks back the flashing amber light returned. As I have been busy elsewhere I was not able to attend to this untl recently. It does not seem to matter how many times I reset the device, I cannot return it to a working state.
The capsule has previously been set up to connect to the internet through my existing broadband service. As such, it was initially set up and subsequently restored wirelessly. I no longer seem to be able to achieve this. Has anybody else experienced similar difficulties and if so, were you able to remedy it.
Grateful for any advice. I feel another trip to the Genius Bar coming on.

Yeah absolutely - no problem.
I had the same thing happen where I did a restore on my personal TimeCapsule (TC),
and when I updated the device after installing it, it for some reason set the TC into bridged mode shutting off DHCP/NAT service.
Which means, that it doesn't reserve an IP for any client trying to attach. This is what it sounds like yours is doing.
So if you see that it says bridged, and that box with dhcp reservation is greyed out, change it from bridged to DHCP/NAT.
This will allow any client (computer/device) to attach and reserve an IP address for access to the internet.
Once that is set, and you update, hopefully the light should go green.
I would also recommend checking the "internet" tab, and making sure that your IP address is assigned using DHCP. (It probably is - but that part is essential for communication with your Internet Service Provider (ISP)...
SO - if the device goes green after the update:
If it does, then go back into the router and click on the wireless tab and confirm your wireless settings are correct, if any changes are made, update.
At that point, you should be able unplug your laptop to wirelessly connect to the router.
