Reader : update and install failed

hello,
I first had a notification to update my Reader (it worked perfectly).
The update failed because of bad drive letter.
(i have Win7 SP1 64 bits)
Then i tried to remove Reader from my computer (to do a new install later).
Windows fails to remove (bad drive letter).
Then i use the command subst H: "C:\"
The remove process is OK, Reader is no more on my computer.
I've restarted Windows and tried to install Reader again => same issue
Here is the error message (in French)
Erreur d'installation de Adobe Reader
Lecteur incorrect : H:\ correspondait à un dossier utilisateur. Le lecteur n'existe pas ou la connexion est impossible. Vous pouvez déconnecter le lecteur ou réaffecter la lettre de lecteur. Pour plus d'informations, consultez http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/404/kb404946.html
H:\ was a disk drive i have removed few monthes ago, and this drive was used only for pictures & videos, not for programs.
I tried again the command subst (for C:\ and C:\Windows), but i still get the error message
I tried the Microsoft FixIt program
Please, help !

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ Shell Folders
=> 1entry for "My Pictures"
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ User Shell Folders
=> 1 entry for "My Pictures"
I've just changed these 2 entries to E:\
Install successful !!!
Thanks a lot

  • Deploy reader updates and install/uninstall reader via GPO ???

    Hello,
    Got a couple of questions on install/uninstall via GPO and how to deploy reader updates.
    1) How to uninstall older version of readers via GPO?
    2) Is there an ADM file available for installing the latest reader via GPO?
    3) For reader patch updates, can it be deployed via GPO?  If yes, any docs. I can refer to?  If no, what is the minimum priviledge I must grant to domain users to allow them to run the update function w/in the reader (or assign to a specific file path)?
    Thanks in advance!

    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.

    When you select update, verify that it is showing your correct Apple ID, perhaps you have an app that was downloaded with a different ID, all apps are always associated with the ID that first downloaded them.

  • I am trying to use a website that requires that my computer have the lastest version of Java, which I have updated and installed, however Firefox does not recon

    I am trying to use a website that requires that my computer have the latest version of Java, which I have updated and installed Java 7 Update 51 (64-bit), however Firefox does not recognize that I even have Java on my computer. My computer is 64-bit
    When I run "Verify Java Version" it show nothing is installed... but it is, I know that for a fact because it shows in my "Control Panel/Programs/Programs and Features".
    When I go back to the Java Download page, the following message is visible:
    "We have detected you may be viewing this page in a 32-bit browser. If you use 32-bit and 64-bit browsers interchangeably, you will need to install both 32-bit and 64-bit Java in order to have the Java plug-in for both browsers."
    My question is this:
    Is there a way to change my Firefox browser from 32-bit to 64-bit.... because it appears that this is way Java is not functioning properly?

    Firefox needs 32-bit plugins, so you'll need to install 32-bit Java for Firefox.
    No, you can't change Firefox from 32-bt to 64-bit. There is a Nightly 64-bit version (alpha) of Firefox, but it is used only to test for regressions until development is resumed.

  • Have photoshop cs5 installed on desktop..got new Canon rebel T5i camera...cannot open RAW images...updated and installed plug-in...still now working.  Need help, please.

    I have photoshop cs5 installed on desktop...got new Canon rebel T5i camera...cannot open RAW images...updated and installed plug-in...still not working...help please.

    In any event, that camera was first supported by ACR version 7.4 which needs at least CS6 to run.  Naturally, all later versions support it too.
    Your choice is either to upgrade your Photoshop, or to look for, download, install, launch and run the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter 8.6 on each folder containing your raw Canon files to convert them first to raw DNGs that you can open in CS5.
    In no case does an Adobe application belong "on your desktop".  The default install location should always be respected and left alone.

  • Adobe Reader Updates and Flash Plugin for Reader.

    I was surprised to find out that Adobe Reader Updates and also Flash Plugin for Adobe Reader cannot be installed on Windows 7 without Admin Rights!!!!!
    I remember on Windows XP this was not an issue. I am sure I have checked the possibility of installing Adobe Flash Plugin for Adobe Reader on Windows XP without Admin Rights and it worked...
    Now, we have some major issue...
    I have prepared Adobe PDF Portfolio for some new policy for Housing Loan, and deployed it to be open from a Web Browser. As per my testing, it worked very nice, and the Business User loved it. On Windows XP, if flash plugin for Reader is not installed, the user will be guided to install it, and it works very nicely.
    Just before sending the announcement to all users, we realized that on Windows 7, if flash plugin for Reader is not installed, then when the user clicks on the link to open the PDF Portfolio, then nothing happens. The browser window will open, and it will hang.
    Then we found out that on Windows 7 we have to install the Reader Flash Plugin manually, and also, the user must have Admin Rights ...
    Now, a decision has been made to cancel the work done using PDF Portfolio, and develop a simple page with links to the required documents...
    Any solution for this?
    How we can install the required plugin without the need for Admin Right?
    Why on Windows 7, the user does not get prompts to guide him to install Adobe Reader Flash Plugin?
    Tarek.

    I think I can see the reason for this. The Flash Player is separated from Adobe Reader; the system component is now used. (It appears that the "browser plug-in" and "Flash plug-in for Adobe Reader" are indeed the same thing, loaded from the same system location).
    Adobe are following recommended practice. It is right and proper that software is installed by the administrator. This then means that the non-administrator end user is protected from malware which attempts to change that software for bad reasons.
    Nobody wants to walk round installing 1000 copies of software. Personally, I'd draw the line around 5 copies. Above that, software designed for bulk use is deployed centrally using enterprise deployment tools.
    There are even more powerful reasons to do this today, as security updates should be installed almost immediately, and end users won't bother. Generally, the tools are standard, but the vendor adds support for deploying software in these standard frameworks.

    what is unknown error(1) !!! it appears every time i tried to update and install iphone soft ware!!! Further, that error appears once the firmware installation is in process !!!

    Usually occurs on devices that have either been jailbroken or attempts have been made to downgrade the iOS.  You can try putting it in DFU mode to restore but you may not be able to fix it.  If you phone has been jailbroken we can't support you in these forums as it is against the terms of use.

    Yes, and it's rather easy to do too.
    Your machine has two slots. These are the specs for a 2008 iMac (if your machine is different then check with Crucial.com and they will match the correct RAM for your machine)
    Maximum Memory
    6.0 GB (Actual) 4.0 GB (Apple)
    Memory Slots
    2 - 200-pin PC2-6400 (800MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM
    So all you need to do is visit Crucial.com or OtherWorld Computing to order it, and OtherWorld Computing has install videos.
    Here is one on YouTube. Easy pleasy.
    Just make sure to discharge any static electricity and not touch the contacts, just the plastic edges.
