SCUP 2011 - Adobe Reader Deployment + Updates

Hi Everyone!
I am using SCCM 2012 + SCUP 2011 and I want to deploy to deploy Acrobat Reader + Updates.
Here is what I did :
- I created an application deployment (Adobe Reader 11.0.00) and deployed it without any problems.
- From SCUP, I published Adobe Reader 11.0.08 but I don't see this update as "Required"
- From SCUP, If I publish Adobe Reader 11.0.02, I see it as "Required"
From what I understand, you cannot update 11.0.00 directly to the latest update (11.0.08).
So my question is : What would be the best practice to install Adobe Reader and manage the updates with SCUP?
Thank you!

You need to either create a new 11.0.08 package or upgrade to 11.0.02 after that version 11.0.08 will be required.

SCUP 2011 & Adobe Reader XI & XI Transition Catalog Problems

Hi-
I'm trying to use SCUP 2011 with WSUS 3.0 SP2 (Patched with latest rollup hotfix - WSUS-KB2734608-x64.exe). The problem that I'm running into is that it gives me the following error when trying to publish either Adobe Reader XI or either of the 2 transition packages "Reader 11.0.01 Update" or "Reader Multi Lingual User Interface 11.0.01 Update":
3 updates failed to be published. View log here for more details.
     3 updates (includes dependencies) failed to build dependency graph.
Here is the bit of the logfile that includes me trying to publish just these 3 packages:

For some reason it keeps making this into a table...
In any event, I don't know why I'm missing dependencies (I've the publicly published Adobe Reader catalog downloaded and published in full content, the Adobe Reader 10 Transition Catalog, the Adobe Reader 11 Transition Catalog and finally, the Adobe Reader 11 Catalog - all downloaded directly from Adobe's Administrator Enterprise Deployment guide.)
Everything else publishes just fine. Would LOVE some direction here. Thanks.

Hi,
The dependencies that are listed are the detectoids for X86 and x64 based systems (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb902472(v=vs.85).aspx):
x86-based systems: 3E0AFB10-A9FB-4c16-A60E-5790C3803437
x64-based systems: 59653007-E2E9-4f71-8525-2FF588527978
These detectoids are public detectoids that could be used by everyone. These are not authored by Adobe and as per the message in the log must be present in the WSUS database.

In my opinion there is a difference in the WSUS environment as these detectoids are not present in my Updates Publisher database as well but still it is published successfully.
Can you pls. give me more details as to how WSUS is configured. Will pursue the matter with other folks and let you know
Thanks,
Vinod

When Firefox last automatically updated, it suggested that Adobe reader needed updating, now, with Adobe Reader 8, I can no longer print from the internet, only to file. Help please.

When Mozilla Firefox last automatically updated, it suggested that Adobe Reader needed updating. After updating to Adobe Reader 8, I can no longer print from the internet, only to a file. I know the printer and its interface must be OK because Word prints normally.

Problem solved, it was my oversight, I had not removed the check from the Print to File box in the print set up.

Removing Adobe Reader X Updates

I would like the notification to remove Adobe Reader X Updates to be removed from my computer. It is quite annoying. Please be clear and easy since I am not exactly computer literate. Thank you, in advance

Sorry, your question is not clear. Can you give us the exact wording (or a screenshot) of that notification?
What is your operating system?

I can sign into Adobe but I cannot sign into Adobe Reader for updates

I can sign into Adobe but my password is rejected when trying to sign into Adobe reader for updates.

Adobe Reader won't ask you to sign in for updates. Most likely, this is just the normal adminstrator password prompt you get when installing or updating software, and you use your computer's own password.

Adobe Reader 11 Update via SCUP

Hi all,
i'm updating Adobe Reaer via SCCM and SCUP and the published catalogs from Adobe.
When importing the updates i do not see the MUI Update for Version 11.0.5, but the not MUI Version is available.
is this update published later what do i wrong?
Thanks a lot

I'm a bit sorry, I've used the non MUI version for deployment, it was the German 11.0.04 Package.
11.0.05 Deployment via SCUP was done without any problems.
I tried "msiexec /update AdbeRdrUpd11006.msp" with Logging Option and this is the output (It's a bit in german I hope its not a problem):

Do you have any hints what could be the problem?

Deploying Adobe Reader & Flash Updates

I am currently looking for a way to deploy non-Microsoft based product updates across our organization. Some of the products I would like to be able to deploy updates for include: Adobe Flash, Adobe Reader and Adobe Shockwave.
Presently, between our main office and our various branch offices we have:
5 Servers running Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise
1 Server running Windows Server 2008 Enterprise
1 Server running Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard
20-30 Workstations running Windows Xp Professional SP3
20-30 Workstations running Windows 7 Professional
Sadly, our organization does not current have a license for SCCM, so I most likely will be deploying updates via our GPOs or scripts.Also, our users do not have admin rights or anything, so lately I've been having to manually authorize each of their updates when the product (Adobe for example) checks for updates.
Does anyone have any suggestions or pointers?
Thanks.

Adobe Reader Transitition Update for SCCM

Hi all,
i just downloaded the latest Adobe Reader 11.X Catalogs for SCUP.
I would like to upgrade all of our 10.X Adobe Reader Versions to 11.X, but the Transition Update "Adobe Reader 10 Transition"
seems to work only for english Installations. All of my other Clients report "not required" and so i can't push that update to those clients.
Is there anything i'm doing wrong? Will there be another Transitition Update to upgrade other languages also?
Thanks a lot.
Best regards
SCCMLer

hey it's again me but new account as i forgot the password and the reset mail does not arrive
I've deployed the following Adobe Reader Versions and it would be great if i could upgrade all of them witha Reader 11 SCUP Catalog Update.
Adobe Reader X (10.1.8)
Adobe Reader X (10.1.8) - Deutsch
Adobe Reader X (10.1.8) - Español
Adobe Reader X (10.1.7)
Adobe Reader X (10.1.7) - Deutsch
Adobe Reader X (10.1.7) - Español
Adobe Reader X (10.1.7) MUI
Adobe Reader X (10.1.6)
Adobe Reader X (10.1.6) - Deutsch
Adobe Reader X (10.1.6) - Español
Adobe Reader X (10.1.4)
Adobe Reader X (10.1.4) - Deutsch
Adobe Reader X (10.1.4) MUI
No chance? Why do they not also upgrade other languages? Will it be released someday?

Disable Adobe Reader 9 update notification

I've searched for a way to disable the update notification for Adobe Reader 9, Linux, But - I'm unable to find a working solution.
How can those notifications be disabled?

Thanks but we have already deployed Adobe 9 using a MSI package.
I need assistance with updating or applying the AdbeRdrUpd931_all_incr.msp to 160+ users.

Adobe Reader security update to 9.3.1 not working.

I have updated adobe reader to 9.3.1 but in Secunia PSI it's still being reported as insecure.
I uninstalled adobe reader completely, cleared all traces from the registry, and reinstalled 9.3.0, and let it check for updates. it said there weren't any.
I downloaded the security fix to update it to 9.3.1 and installed it successfully.
Adobe reader now says it's 9.3.1 in the Help About option on the help menu.
However the Reader exe file AcroRd32.exe version is still 9.3.0.148 dated 21/12/2009, as are all the plugin files except for the Forms plugin that is version 9.3.1.203 dated 02/02/2010.
I have since done a successful repair install of Adobe Reader, but PSI is still saying it's insecure because of the file version 9.3.0.148 for AcroRd32.exe, and the plugin files except the Forms plugin,
Why isn't the security update to 9.3.1 updating the exe file and plugins? Is it even working at all and fixing the critical security risks it's supposed to be fixing? It would seem all it's doing is to change the Help/About screen to read 9.3.1, and changing the Forms plugin...
Running on WIndows 7 home premium.

I have same problem using Windows Vista Home Premium. Just ran Secunia and went to link and downloaded and installed 9.3.1.203, but, AcroRd31.exe still shows ver 9.3.0.148 in the Acrobe Reader files on my computer??? I do not think that the problem is solved. Apparently the update is not working correctly.

Compatibility of Adobe Reader International Updates 8.1.5 & 8.1.6 with ME/Hebrew versions of 8.1.3 & 8.1.4

At present, I have Adobe Reader Hebrew version AdbeRdr813_he_IL.exe installed, and I use Internet Explorer 6 SP1 in my Windows 2000 Professional SP4 . The menus and interface in all my Windows 2000 Operating System and installed software are US-English, but the specific menus and interface in my Adobe Reader 8.1.3 are in Hebrew.
Adobe website offers for download ME (Hebrew included inside) Update version AdbeRdrUpd814_all_me_incr.msp, whereas Updates 8.1.5 & 8.1.6 are only available as AdbeRdrUpd815_all_incr.msp and AdbeRdrUpd816_all_incr.msp, without explicit mention of Hebrew or Middle-East (ME) languages compatibility.
Is it compatible and adviseable to download and apply these International Updates 8.1.5 & 8.1.6 directly to the basic Adobe Reader Hebrew 8.1.3 , or first install ME 8.1.4, or directly install International Update 8.1.6 onto Hebrew 8.1.3, thus bypassing ME 8.1.4 & 8.1.5?
Alternatively, should I patiently wait till ME/Hebrew versions of Updates 8.1.5 & 8.1.6 will be offered for download by Adobe?
Note that my main interest is in the ability to search text strings in Hebrew and in English in all PDF documents. The menus and interface might be in US-English or in Hebrew as far as I am concerned.

The ME version of Adobe products are not actually Adobe products. Contact the company that makes and supports these products:

Disabling Adobe Reader X updates in an enterprise

Hi Guys,
Can anyone tell me where the registry key is to disable updates to the New Adobe Reader X? I have this in place for version 9 but I cannot find the key even after using proxmon to see what Adobe is changing in the registry.
Is there any new methods of managing an adobe reader in this new version?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
For disabling ReaderX updates following registry entry can be created:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\10.0\FeatureLockDown]
"bUpdater"=dword:00000000
Hope that it will be useful. Thanks

Adobe Reader LE Updates

Are standard OEM equipped device users entitled to product updates?
I'm using Adobe Reader LE 2.5.0.0. but there is no facility in the product to check for updates. Have there been any updates?

afaik, the LE apps are not supported in any way other than, perhaps, by the vendor of your phone. (this forum is for adobe ppc reader which is not related to LE)
If your phone is windows mobile and uses a stylus, you can "upgrade" to the full pocketpc adobe reader by downloading it from adobe and using activesync to install it via your sync pc.

Adobe reader 9 - Updater Plug-in has been removed

Prior to installing the recent version of Adobe reader, I was able to populate an Adobe reader form. When I now try and populate the same form, I receive an error message "Updater plug-in has been removed. Please re-install Acrobat to continue viewing current file." I have done a re-install but am still unable to populate the same for that I was able to do prior to the Adobe 9 upgrade. Please help!

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately that link does not help - here's the full chain:

Adobe Reader XI Update failed. How to fix?

When my windows 7 64 bit computer was updated to adobe reader XI, the update function began to continually fail. I am getting the following "Adobe Reader Updater" message:
"Update Failed An error occured. Please check for updates again later. Error: 111500"
This message annoyingly pops up when adobe attempts to check for updates automatically. I also get this message anytime I manually check for updates. I have tried to "check for updates later" a million times with no luck. I have also uninstalled and reinstalled Reader a million times. I have also uninstalled, utilized the adobe reader removal tool for removal of older versions, and reinstalled a million times. I have also tried reinstalling the older versions. Still, whether i am using version XI or an older version of Reader, I always get the above message when I request an update. Please Help!

This error means that Updater could not create download folder under C:\Users\All Users\Adobe\ARM
Most likely you have special\corrupted permissions at C:\Users\All Users level
Or some sort of Antivirus type program keeps this folder locked.
You have 2 choices
1. Fix permissions\locking issue
2. Download Updates manually and install them every time they are released - http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/release-note/release-notes-acrobat-reader.html
If you choose later, you can disable Updater automatic modes from Edit\Preferences\Updater menu.
Good luck
