Specify a Saving Folder in Adobe Reader XI

Our customer wants to have a standardized Folder for the Adobe Reader XI to save his Documents in.
For example: If you click "save as" the standard folder that appears is "C:\Users\Name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\", but the customer wishes that instead the specified folder "X:\example\example" appears in all cases.

That is actually dictated by Internet Explorer, not the Reader plugin.
However, the default folder also depends on how the document is saved (right-click on a link, then Save target; or Save as from within the Reader plugin).

After saved to computer, Adobe Reader could not open 'filename.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).

What is your operating system? Reader version?
Saved from where? What is the file size of the saved document?

How to Stop automatic file saving on IPAD Adobe Reader 11.2

How can stop my PDF document being saved with the fillable form data when being using Adobe Reader 11.2 on an IPAD - the file is automatically saved when the user returns to the document folder. The original pdf file was created from a Word document and then text,signature and date fields added using Adobe Acrobat XI and saved using Standard Save function. I am trying to achieve my users completing the template form using the IPAD and then emailing it. However each time the form is filled and emailed (which all works fine) and the user returns to the "documents" folder, Acrobat Reader 11.2 automatically saves the file with the form data

I think the iPad forces a different way of thinking. In general, you don't have to save files on the iPad, and that's important. The iPad has complete liberty to quit an app when you want to run a different app, or just because it feels like it. When you restart a good app, things are as they were when it was quit.
Resetting is a possibility, but remember that because of this automatic quit/automatic restart it might happen when you don't want it. A reset BUTTON seems entirely possible.

"windows cannot access specified device, path or file", adobe reader x

hi,
i had an older version of reader (9.something i think) that started making troubles, so i removed it (via control panel) and tried to use reader x instead. but after installing it i tried to run it and got this message titled "c:\programfiles\adobe\reader10.0\eula.exe":
"windows cannot access specified device, path or file. you may not have the appropriate permitions to access the item".
after clicking "ok" the program shuts.
i downloaded this version from adobe's site and registered. i also tried to go back to version 9 but the installation itself wouldn't go.
i'm using windows xp and downloaded reader using chrome. i deleted all previous adobe reader files from my computer prior to downloading, so it should behave as if this the first time this program was installed on it.
how can i solve it? (i've already tried going through the whole process again and again)
thank you for any help.

I have found out how to solve this issue..
Took A few days to figure it out and a lot of installs and un-installing
Install CS6 master collection again and restart your machine- Make sure all anti-virus is disabled
What you have to do:
1. Press Start
2. go under "Abode Master Collection CS6 (it should say its empty)
3. now left click the folder "Adobe Master Collection" and open it..
4. it will now come up with all programmes that SHOULD have worked - their thumbnails will not be visible it will look as if its corrupted.
5. Now this is a long procedure- go on the first shortcut, lefts click and go to properties.
6. Then select the option that says "Open File Location" it will then take you to its main folder.
7. Left click the highlighted Programme within the main folder, then go on properties
8. Go on the security Tab, press "continue" then you go on "Add" then type your account name, then "check name" then tick the box "full control"
9. Then navigate to the "compatibility" Tab and select "Run this programme as an administrator (if you don't do this it will come up with another error)
You should now have the thumbnail (picture) for the programme now
You have to now repeat this for the rest of the programmes/shortcut's within the "Adobe Master Collection" Folder

Saving annotations on Adobe reader mobile

I am running Android Adobe Reader mobile and cannot save annotations. This has become extremely frustrating as annotations take a good deal of my time and not being able to save them on my device makes annotations on that device useless. My question to the forum is first how can i save annotations I have made directly on to my device and secondly if it is possible to have the device autosave after annotations are made on a continous basis. Thank you in advace.- WR

How do I find the plug-ins folder for Adobe Reader?

I download a subscription pdf from ANSI on an older G4 in January. I recently upgraded to a MacBook Pro i7. ANSI sent me a link to File Open but I need to check the Plug ins to make sure that they loaded. Using get info does not reveal a pull down menu for plug ins.

You can control - click on the Adobe Reader.app and show package content, as well.

How do I prevent adobe reader from opening a file after it's saved from chrome adobe reader?

Whenever I save a file from the chrome adobe reader, it opens automatically in adobe reader which is incredibly annoying. Please help!

Ahh, but that's the design function of any PDF viewer add-on to a browser.
To avoid -- Use the browser feature that saves a file to the local machine.
Then open the file with the appropriate application.
If your machine/device does not support this then you'd want to change to one that supports what you want eh.
Be well...

File folder of Adobe reader for android

When switch to "folder view", there are two folders "0" and "legacy", which are actually the same folder. Is it possible to remove one of the two folders ?
When switch to "folder view", it always comes to root folder, is it possible to keep the folder that was opened last time?

How can I edit a saved file in adobe reader?

I just want to delete a sentence and replace it with a new one.... Should I just start over in word? This is so confusing and frustrating!

you can use file/import but that would be a mistake.
you should "load" your swf, not import it.
if you want to load it and need help, are you using as2 or as3?

How do I move a file from "Recents" in Adobe Reader for Android to a folder in "Documents"?

How do I move a file from "Recents" in Adobe Reader for Android to a folder in "Documents"?
Files from Google Drive are appearing in "Recents" where I cannot organize them hierarchically.
I cannot find a user manual for Adobe Reader for Android with this level of detail.

Hi John,
Files opened via Google Drive are not listed in ‘Documents' section of Adobe Reader, because they are read only files. If you really want to save these files to ’Documents' then please follow below steps -
Open the file from Google drive in Adobe Reader.
Tap on the Comment icon placed at top toolbar(Second icon from the beginning)
You would encounter a 'Read-Only document’ dialog, tap on Save button.
Once you performed above steps , your file will be saved in /Download/Adobe Reader/ folder.
Hope this will solve your problem.
Thanks,
Adobe Reader Team

Deleting an Adobe Reader 9 programs folder

I've run reader 9 for some time and the installation was originally created under WinXP. The installation was customised in that the programs folder was (for a variety of reasons) on a separate logical drive. There were a number of other programs folders on that drive.
I recently upgraded to Win 7 SP1, which destroyed the XP c:drive and active partition, and created a new one. It was stated by MS that this upgrade would require all the software I wanted to retain be re-installed. After the OS upgrade, I chose to do that by installing the reader 9 software in a new folder on the the same programs drive, having first taken the precaution of renaming the old folder (to Adobe Reader 9_old). The new installation went well, and it updated to reader 9.5.0 after the install was completed.
At this point, I proceeded to delete - or try to delete - the older programs folder, and the system consistently refused to allow it. A screen dump of the error message is included here. Nothing I attempted - remove the read-only marking on the folder, change the user security controls to full control, and run as administrator - allows the delation to occur. This did not happen when the folder name was changed. Note that this is the only folder in that programs drive that this occurs for. Because of Windows 7 features, some software I no longer need and I have deleted those program folders successfully.
Because of the way the Win7 upgrade and the re-install of Adobe reader 9 worked, this _old folder and its contents has no links to the operating system. It seems clear therefore that the original Adobe install has marked the folder in some way that OS is responding to when delete is requested, even in the various admin conditions outlined. The Adobe software is still on the PC, I just want to recover the 145Mb in this old folder. Can you suggest a folder deletion process that would work and achieve that end without re-loading the entire OS and starting again?

I assume it was placed on your desktop so it could be deleted by you. If they did it they way things are frequently done, it would be installed in your root directory where you would unlikely see and and stay there forever.

Adobe reader 9 leaves a shared folder on my desktop?

i recently installed adobe reader 9, to find that it has left a shared folder named 'Adobe Reader 9 Installer' on my desktop, this folder sizes approximately ~110mb and appears to contain installer files for adobe reader 9, adobe air and some others stuff. My question is, is it safe to delete this folder? or will adobe reader 9 require the use of this folder? it seems strange to leave a 100mb + file upon the desktop.
thanks

Almost every program I've installed leaves the installer folder where it
is. You may need to re-install and for some software add and/or remove
features. Who would purchase software that erased itself so that it
could not be used again.

How to transfer pdfs in Adobe reader app on ipad to desktop pc?

I can't see to find the solution of this problem anywhere.
Is it possible to transfer the pdfs saved in the Adobe Reader app to a PC (not a mac, I don't have one).
Basically, I want to be able to plug my ipad into my PC and take the pdfs and transfer straight to my PC without going through any other means.
Thanks

You can either do it using Adobe Reader Mobile Link: https://helpx.adobe.com/reader/beta-features/mobile-link.html
I do not have any iOS devices, but if I connect my Android device to my Windows PC, I use Windows Explorer to view, then copy (drag-and-drop) the files from the Android directory straight to my local disk on Windows. I am pretty sure it works similarly with iOS devices.
