Same message 2 dnld Plugin, (Java), and Adobe Reader: Error 2203.Database: C:\Windows\Installer\ced2e.ipi. Cannot open database file. System error -2147287035.E

Spent all afternoon downloading Java plugiins and Adobe reader; each with the following "failure message."
Error 2203.Database: C:\Windows\Installer\ced2e.ipi. Cannot open database file. System error -2147287035.Error 2203.Database: C:\Windows\Installer\ced2e.ipi. Cannot open database file. System error -2147287035.

This is going to sound lame, but... have you shut down and restarted Windows since this problem began? Sometimes the Windows Installer starts behaving erratically, perhaps due to a backlog of deferred updates, and the only way to get around it is to reboot.

  • I need Active X plug-in for some features my brokerage website for Jave and Adobe Reader to properly function. You have blocked Active X. How do I get it to wo

    My brokerage requires Active X in order for Adobe Reader and Java to function. Without Active X neither work. After a lengthy session with their tech staff I was told to contact you or use IE. I hate IE. IE is the whole reason I got FF back when you folks first updated it to FF 0.7. That was in early '04. I haven't looked back. I HATE IE!
    PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME TO USE IE.
    If Active X is so bad, why does Google Chrome use it? Is it not a security thing but rather a licensing issue?

    Firefox does not support ActiveX. It's proprietary so that's why. But I found a solution for you. Download this http://code.google.com/p/ff-activex-host/downloads/detail?name=ffactivex-setup-r39.exe&can=2&q=
    This will allow you to have Active X working.

  • This is the third time I have entered this question and answered with my PW, etc. I have updated my IPad with IOS 7, and updated Adobe Reader with ver. 11.3.1. I cannot get any files or folders to come up when I click on Adobe, even though my Usage indica

    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.
    Please let us know if you need further assistance.

  • Surface RT will read files for a period of time. After closing the files and reopening later, they're corrupted or Windows says it can't open the file format.

    File formats include jpeg, Word and Excel documents, and PDFs. Documents have come from downloads, email attachments, and documents created locally. Performed a full scan today which found no results. Performed a system refresh and no improvement. These
    are documents I've opened, edited, saved, sometimes reopened and used, and later, they randomly aren't working.
    Currently saving all documents on the MicroSD card to keep the SSD drive as free as possible on the Surface.
    Downloading a firmware update as I type this.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    For the issue,please  open these files using other computer to see if we can open them normally.

  • Adobe Acrobat Prof. 8 and Adobe Reader Version 11 under Windows 8.1 x64

    Good Afternoon,
    my company plan migration from Windows XP to Windows 8.1 x64. For this reason shall I find out, which Software run under Windows 8.1 x64. From Adobe Products we need to know, if  Adobe Acrobat Prof. 8 and Adobe Reader Version 11 run under Windows 8.1. 
    If the Software named above run not under Windows 8.1 x64, could you write me please, which version we need und how much it is. Thank you very much.
    Best Regards

    If you have Acrobat, there is no need for Reader. Acrobat 8 is not certified for use on Win8.1, only Acrobat XI. You can get the current cost from the Adobe Store at Adobe.com. The cost is a per computer license. If you have a lot of computer, you might be able to negotiate with Adobe on a volume order or site license (for so many licenses) -- you would have to call Adobe on that.
    AA 8 can be made to work in some cases, but I would not recommend it in a business environment. It is not worth risking some hickup with software that is marginally compatible when you have some deadline or such.

  • Installation of Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader on the same machine

    What is the recommendation from Adobe on having both Adobe Acrobat Pro/Std installed and Adobe Reader installed on the same machine?
    Is there an 'official' or 'recommended' statement for this?

    I think it is not recommended or supported for versions earlier than X.

  • I use Imax G4 10.4.11 and need to load Java 1.6.0_13 and Adobe Reader 9.4, but cannot on 10.4. Can I load these two items on your Firefox?

    I need the Java and the Adobe in order to continue to use my Scottrade Investment account. My current safari Panther account will not accommodate these Java and Adobe upgrades. The Apple tech advised trying Firefox.

    Firefox 3.5 is an antique version that is chock-full of security vulnerabilities.<br>
    Firefox 3.6 also contains security vulnerabilities; it stopped being supported on April 24.
    * [https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/ www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/]
    If you can't run the latest version because your system doesn't meet the requirements, it's highly recommended that you use another browser that is secure. TenFourFox is a third-party build of Firefox that is kept up-to-date and runs on Mac OS X 10.4 and PowerPC Macs (as a side note, I've never seen the site go down; whatever problems James noticed 9 months ago must've been a fluke).

    If your system can run the latest version, but you want to downgrade because you've experienced problems, please start a new thread and someone will try to help you.
    If you understand the security risks but want to downgrade anyway,

    I am using Adobe Reader X on a laptop with Windows Vista OS and Adobe Reader XI on an older laptop with Windows XP OS.  While filling out the same form on each computer, I have found that I can save info on the older laptop, but not on the newer one.  This is a big problem.  I must be able to save on the newer computer.  Do I need to buy a new computer with a more up-to-date OS?  Please help.

    Adobe Reader X can only save reader-enabled forms. Adobe Reader XI can save all forms.

  • How to allow non-admin users to install software updates of Java, FLASH and Adobe Reader?

    Hi all,
    I have a company (+150 users) and I would like  to allow users to update Java, FLASH and Adobe Reader only.
    These software are already installed in the hosts, but there are updates of the program every week and it needs to be updated.
    How can I give permissions to every user in the domain to do that? Just "Java, FLASH and Adobe Reader"
    Remember that I dont want distribute software because they were installed.
    I tried to enable "Enable user to patch evelated products" directive but it didn't work at my domain.
    is it possible?

    I have a method that works for FLASH player, but am trying to come up with a method for the other 2 myself.  To automate flash player, I created a Policy and added the following:
    Under Computer Config, Prefrences, Windows Setting, Files I created a new File Item.
    I set Action = Replace, Created a Source File named mms.cfg* (more below) and have the destination file as systemroot%\System32\Macromed\Flash\mms.cfg (or %systemroot%\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\mms.cfg for x64)
    I used notepad to edit the mms.cfg, and used the following in the body:
    AutoUpdateDisable=0
    SilentAutoUpdateEnable=1
    AutoUpdateInterval=0
    My non-admin users now update flash in the background silently and automatically.

  • With OSX10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02 when I try to open a PDF downloaded from the web I get 'There was an error opening this document. This file is damaged and could not be repaired. Preview will not open either. Older PDFs OK.

    I am running OS X 10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02. In the last few days I have been unable to open PDF's downloaded from the web. Reader gives the error message 'There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired'. Removing Reader and trying to use Preview to open these files give the error 'Preview cannot open this file. It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn't recognise' (or something like that). Downloading the same files with Reader removed from my Mac Preview opens the files OK.
    I was recently prompted to update Adobe software but did not note exactly what the update was nor when it was done.
    Reader and Preview will both open PDFs I downloaded a week ago. Reader will also open files downloaded on another Mac running OS X 10.0.0 and copied to my Mac. Any ideas?

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Adobe Reader X (10.1.1) Invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit.

    This is the second time this has happen.
    My system consists of the following:
    PC running Windows 7 w/64bit
    When I try to open a .pdf Iget a pop-up within 10 seconds say Invalid plugin detected. Adobe Reader will quit.
    I paid the $39.00 from tech support to get this fixed in Aug. 2011 and now it's back.
    I have gone through all the Adobe hoops and nothing has worked.

    Hi,
    Do you have any 3rd party plugin installed for Adobe Reader? If not, close all running instances of Adobe Reader and delete the entire folder at: C:\program Files\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\plug_ins.
    Now goto Control Panel > Programs and Features. Locate the entry for Adobe Reader X and chose to repair the installation.
    If you do have a 3rd party plugin installed, try uninstalling them and see if the issue is related to the same. If it works, do let me know which plugins were causing the issue so that I can have a look.
    Hopefully, this should fix things.
    Thanks

  • Insufficient data sent error in Adobe Reader XI and Adobe Reader X

    I have an issue that is happening with several users that I support.  It is only happening in a specific program that they use.  When they open PDFs, they get the message insufficient data sent and then a blank document opens.  I noticed that this seemed to be an issue a couple years ago, but it was apparently solved with recent releases of Adobe reader. I have installed and set up Adobe Reader XI and Adobe Reader X, but the results are the same and very intermittent.  It can happen when trying to open a document and then not happen 10 seconds later on the same doc.  The company that provides the online program blames Adobe.  Where do I proceeed from here?

    Hello,
    unfortunately it's a reserved document. I'll try to reproduce the issue with a different design and, if possible, I'll post a link to it.
    Thank you!

  • With APTT and Adobe Reader QTP spy on a PDF document causes Adobe Reader to stop working

    Hi,
    We have the below configurations,
    QTP Version 11
    Adobe Reader 10.1.2
    Adobe PDF Test Toolkit for Adobe Reader 10.1.1 onwards
    Windows 7 64 bit OS
    Internet Explorer 8
    QTP shows AcroQTP in the Add-in page.
    But when an object Spy is done on a PDF document we get the message "Adobe Reader has stopped working" and it crashes.
    Please provide me a solution for this problem
    Thanks,
    Kruthika.

    Hi
    We have lately found that due to some of our changes in Reader 10.1.2 release, the plugins have broken.
    They still continue to work with Adobe Reader 10.1.0 and 10.1.1 ON ANY ENVIRONMENT WITH ANY QTP VERSION.
    For the time being, before Adobe roll out a fix, we would suggest you not to upgrade the Adobe Reader versions.
    Thanks and Regards
