Trouble opening acrobate files with reader 10.1.7.

I have trouble opening acrobate files with reader 10.1.7. When I click on the file to open it with adobe reader x, nothing happens. If I click on Adobe Reader X icon, a message comes up: preparing to install. After that, I can open a PDF, but only until the next reboot.

Something went amiss during the install. Windows keeps trying to finish the incomplete install every time Reader opens.
Use the Adobe Cleaner to completely remove Reader.
Download the offline installer and reinstall without a download manager

Cannot open PDF files with Reader XI message appears Adobe Reader has stopped working

Cannot open PDF files with Reader XI message appears Adobe Reader has stopped working. A problem has caused the program to stop working

Which Operating system you are using?
Can you open Adobe Reader by itself? If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)] and then try to open the file.

Have to click multiple times to open PDF files with Reader XI

Having issues opening pdf files in Adobe Reader XI. Many times I have to double click 3 or 4 times before the document will display on my screen. This is even more of an issue when trying to open a pdf in a browser, and will often cause IE to crash. Every time I try to open a pdf file there is a process that is started, so I end up with a stack of AcroRd32.exe processes running with nothing to show for it. I tried re-installing Reader, removing Acrobat 8 Standard, etc with no success. OS is Windows 7, SP1. Any help out there?

You can't have both Acrobat 8 and Reader XI installed at the same time. They're not compatible with one another. Acrobat XI and Reader XI is fine, though.
Also, Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Windows 7...

Trouble opening project files with Windows 7 computer - Elements 8

I recently purchased a new Dell computer running Windows 7 platform and installed Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 and Premiere Elements 8 software. This is the same software version that I ran on an older computer running Windows XP. I have transferred all files to the new computer, but when I try to open slide show project files created on old computer, I get the followning error message: "The file(s) listed will not be imported as it is not a supported file type." This is the same software version, but running on a Windows 7 instead of XP platform. What can I do to open these files? I would not rather start over on these files on new computer.
Thanks, Art

Hi,
Try repairing your catalog. Goto File>Catalog ... You will see the Catalog Manager. Choose option Repair from there. Thanks

Unable to open PDF files in Reader after canceling Acrobat subscription

Dear Adobe,
I have a case# 0185794056. It involves a purchase of Pro XI and a cancellation shortly after. Since the cancellation of Pro XI, I have had difficulties accessing Reader. When I click to open a file in Reader, I receive a message stating I need to renew my Pro XI subscription. What can be done?
Sincerely,
Brian Razak

Hi Brian,
If I understand correctly, you're double-clicking a PDF in hopes of opening it in Reader, but it opens (or tries to) to open in Acrobat Pro, instead. Is that the case?
Did you uninstall Acrobat Pro after canceling your subscription? If not, I would start there. Or, you could also associate the PDF filename extension with Reader, instead of Pro (the steps vary by operating system).
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara

Open pdf doc with reader 9 when acrobat 8 installed

Hello,
I created a form with acrobat 9 and distributed it.
It appears that on a windows xp computer that already has acrobat 8 installed, it is impossible to open the form with reader 9, (after installing it, of course...).
Then, I'd rather create an excel file...
Please, all suggestions to solve that issue very quickly are welcome.
Thx++

Why can't I open PDF files with Adobe Reader in Google Chrome?

Suddenly I cannot open PDF files with Adobe Reader when I am in Google Chrome. I have installed up to date versions of both. What is happening?

I am not able to use Firefox with Sharepoint - I can only open a file in read-only mode and cannot checkout the document and edit.

I would like to use Firefox with Sharepoint.
However, I am only able to open a file in "read only" mode whch means I cannot edit the document and save it. I am also not able to "check-out" a document in Sharepoint and edit it at the same time.

This may not work for everyone, but I solved this problem by clicking on the file name in sharepoint, not the document icon to the left of the name. This then brought up the various options, including checking out, editing, version history etc. It seems obvious but I have only just realised this!

How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader instead of google?

Firefox is unsucessfully using google to open pdf files. How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader?
Message was edited by: veeryTalonted

"Google" is a search engine (website) and NOT (repeat: NOT) a PDF viewer. It can't and won't open PDFs in any real or imaginable way.
Firefox added their own proprietary PDF viewer with version 20 - they're on 21 now. I'll be the first to admit "it sucks". You CAN'T fill in PDF forms with it, and you can't email them from the page like with Opera, Safari or Chrome (which use the reader plug-in still).
Unfortunately, the ONLY option you have now that they've added it and killed the ability for the Reader plug-in to work with Firefox, is Tools>Options>Applications - select Portable Document Format(PDF) and choose "Use Adobe Reader (Default)". What that will do is FORCE Firefox to download the PDF instead of opening it in their terrible PDF viewer in the browser window.
Or... use one of the other browsers I mentioned. They're all free.
