Unable to load acrobat reader control

Adobe Standard 8
Windows 7
IE 8
Getting this message opening some PDF files on the web. Apparently just started today. Other errors last week opening PDFs so I turned off display in browser and the error went away.

Also check to see if you have Reader and Acrobat on the same computer. That is an unsupported configuration.
if you need to uninstall Reader, you will need to re-install Acrobat.

Error Message: Unable to load Acrobat Reader control

Error Message: Unable to load Acrobat Reader control. Please make sure it is correctly installed. The user I am dealing with has Adobe_Reader_9.4.4 & AdobeAcrobatStd911-L. Can you give me some assistance as to why she is unable to open her file.

That file only? And before version X, Adobe did not recommend having Acrobat and Reader installed in the same Win computer...

Error Message: Unable to load Acrobat Reader control. Please make sure it is correctly installed.

The above error message appears when my client tries to open PDF files from a website. He is running Windows 7 with Internet Explorer 9. This problem just started happening about one week ago. Saving the PDF to a file and then printing from there works, but he has to open and print about 20-30 files per file that he does, so that is not feasible for him to do.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader X, with no luck (he never even had Acrobat Reader installed - ever). I have uninstalled his anti-virus, but that didn't help. I have checked for any updates that may have installed recently, but there were none. He is also having this problem on his laptop, which is running Windows XP with Internet Explorer 8, so this leads me to believe that it is an Adobe issue.
He did not feel like he should have to pay Adobe for them to figure out their own problem, so that was out of the question. I can't say that I blame him. Unfortunately, he works from home, so this has really put an impact on his business. If anyone has seen this before, or if anyone has any solutions, please let me know! Any and all help is appreciated! I work on computer's for a living, so don't worry about over-explaining any solutions you may have.
Thank you!

I am unable to use acrobat reader 10

I am unable to access acrobat reader 10. I tried to download acrobat 11 still didn't work. Tried to change and delete 10 unable to do that. Purchased a registry (regcure) cleaner no luck. I'm at a loss..

Okay,
Adobe Reader doesn't open at all.
When my computer boots up the following message is displayed: "Error
Loading C:\documents and settings\mike\local
settings\applicationdata\Adobe\aqwyoyvf.dll"
In control Panel (add or remove programs)
When I try to "change" or "remove" Adobe Reader (10.1.3) I get the
following message "The installation source for this product is not
available. Verify that the source exists and that you can access it."
Thanks for your help garyT

Unable to load Client print control

I know this question has been asked and I have read all of the responses. But, I seem to have a unique problem.
I am using Server 2008 r2 sp2 with ie8. And my problem is getting the error Unable to Load Client Print Control on the client machine for reporting services.
The standard answer here is that the RSClientPrint.cab needs to be loaded on the client machine and installed with a click of the print icon with admin rights. I have done that as a administrator and the print icon works fine as an adminstrator.
However, when I log as a non-admin user, that is when I get the error. The rsclientprint.dll shows up in the registry, but it just does not work for a non-admin user.
I have a open ticket with a MSDN tech at Microsoft, but he seems to be at a loss and is not trying very many things that lead me to believe that this can be resolved.
I am wondering if some else out here has had this problem and got it to work.
Thanks for any help.

Hi KeithTexas,
It seems that the non-Administrator users don't have sufficient permissions on the “Downloaded Program Files” folder where the RSClientPrint control is stored. So, please grant to the user:
1.Open C:\Windows, right-click on the “Downloaded Program Files” folder and click “Properties”.
2.Switch to the “Security” tab, click “Edit”.
3.In the “Security” window, click “Add” and add the specific user to the list.
4.Check the “Allow” box for “Read & execute” permission and click “OK”.

Web Report Viewer error - Unable to load client print control.

Dear All,
We have a problem with Report Viewer print funtionality. Getting the error "Unable to load client print control." on click of Print button.
We tried all solutions posted in web - nothing resolves the issue.
The print works fine when we open the report via a browser. But the same is not working through our application. We have the application installed on the Report server itself and the user has Admin previleges.
Please find below the details
Report control: ReportViewerWebControl.axd
Version: 9.0.30729.4402
SQL server version: SQL Server 2008 R2, 10.50.2500.0 (running on Windows Server 2008 R2 - 64 bit)
Your help on this would be highly appreciated. Please let me know if you need any specific information.
Thanks,

Hi, Larry,
Thank you for your answer which remind me and lead me to the resolution. I have struggling on this SQL Server Report Server 2012/Client printing control for
2 days.
I just cannot figure out why it kept prompting non-admin XenApp users for SSRS installation. Thanks for your notes again.
I have 2008 R2 server setup as XenApp server for the publish apps. We published the IE to user to access Web application with SQL 2012 reporting service in
the backend.
In the control environment, users do not have permission to install any software. This SSRS has to be installed as administrator under “Install mode” in XenApp
server.
Yes, 32bit IE works for me but 64bit IE works too.
You just need to ensure which version of IE you’re using to install the SSRS. I’m not aware of using 32bit IE for SSRS installation in server but publish 64bit
IE to client. That’s my mistake.
Thanks again.

Report Viewer WebPart for Sharepoint - Printing (Unable to load client print control)

Hi there,
I am running a report via the report viewer web part on a SharePoint page. The report itself is working great. But when I attempt to print it, I get a prompt to install something....and then it is followed up with "Unable to load client
print control".
There are some posts out there about updating the a certain CU or to find the RSClientPrint cab and unloading the dlls into the system32 folder and registering it. I've tried that but no go.
Anyone else encounter this issue? If so, potential solutions?
SP 2010 - 14.0.7221.5000
SQL Server 2008 R2 (Reporting Server)- 10.50.1617 (have tried updating to 10.50.6000.34)
IE = 10.0.9200
And yes, I am running as local admin....so there shouldn't be any issue installing the active x component on IE.
Thanks in advance,
Eric

Hi Eric,
According to your description, you can't load the print button in your sharepoint site. Right?
In Reporting Services, Each user who wants to use the print feature must download and install the ActiveX control that provides client print functionality. The first time a user clicks the
Printer icon on the report toolbar, the Microsoft ActiveX control is downloaded to the computer. After the control is downloaded, the
Print dialog box displays whenever the user clicks the Printer icon.
So in this scenario, please enable the setting Download signed
ActiveX controls in Internet Explorer and download it. Please follow the steps below:
Click Tools -> Internet options.
Switch to the Security tab, select the Trusted sites zone, and then click
Sites.
Type the URL of the SQL reporting server, click Add, and then click Close.
Click the Custom level button, scroll to the ActiveX controls and plug-ins
node.
Click Enable for Download signed ActiveX controls, and then click OK.
Then we need to have the
EnableClientPrinting is set to true.
In SharePoint Central Administration, click Application Management.
Click Manage service applications.
Click the name of your Reporting Services service application, and then click
Manage in the SharePoint ribbon.
Click System Settings.
Select Enable Client Printing. The Enable Client Printing option is near the bottom of the page.
Click OK.
Reference:
Enable and Disable Client-Side Printing for Reporting Services
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best Regards,
Simon Hou

Unable to install Acrobat Reader 9.3.4

What ever I do, Acrobat Reader 9.3.4 installation won't execute. The file would open and process, but thereafter; nothing happens. I've tried uninstalling Acrobat Reader 9.3.3 using Revo Uninstaller just to make sure that there won't be any issues with the latest installation, but no changes. I've tried downloading the latest version via the download site, but no go. Anyone else having similar issues as me? I've checked the forums here and other forums to find a solution, but I'm unable to find any. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Mahalos in advance.

Hi,
I can't install acrobat reader but it seems it's for a different reason from what I'm reading in these posts. When I download it everything seems fine until I try to open it by clicking on the icon or try to read a PDF file. The Adobe reader license agreement pops up, says that I need to accept it before I continue, but there is no accept button!!! I try to scroll all the way down and nothing; there is no accept button!! I've tried uninstalling it and installing it again, same thing. I've tried the link posted in this forum and the same thing happened. It's really getting on my nerves. Can you please please help me?? It just seems so basic, but I'm totally stuck! Any help will be much appreciated!!!

LOADED ACROBAT READER X and my old ACROBAT 7 PROFESSIONAL BECAME DEFAULT+MY PRINTING WITH 7 IS BLURR

I have downloaded ACROBAT READER X. I previously had IX which worked well and prior to that ACROBAT 7 PROFESSIONAL which I have kept and upgraded. Prior to downloading READER X READER 9 had been my default reader.
Upon loading Reader X, 7 PROFESSIONAL became my default reader. It seemed to work OK but for printing. Printing with 7 resulted in blurred unreadable words and black patches. When using READER X for printing printing is fine and clear.
Any words of encoragement?

Not counting Reader X, Adobe didn't recommend having Reader and Acrobat on the same system. It would cause problems. Moreover when you uninstalled one, it would break the other. When you installed Reader X, it uninstalled your old version of Reader and broke Acrobat 7. If you want Reader and Acrobat upgrade both to X. If you want to keep your old version of Acrobat, uninstall Reader X and re-install Acrobat 7.

Unable to use Adobe Acrobat Reader and/or install version 8.1.2.

I was unable to use my adobe reader so I tried to download 8.1.2 and during installation I get the 1417 error message saying unable to remove version 8.1.2. Will not let me finish the installation process?

I have Windows XP Pro Service Pack 2 and IE 7, and I cannot install Adobe Reader 8.1.2. I got all these error messages: Windows Installer, The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or other removable disk that is not available. Insert the Norton Antivirus 2005 disk and click OK - (Didn't work.) Error 1714 The older version of Adobe Reader 8.1.2 cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group. Adobe Reader 8.1.2 Setup failed.
When I tried to install msicuu2.exe, Error Message: Windows Script Host Active X component can't create object: 'WScript.Shell' Source Microsoft VB Script Runtime Error.
I edited the registry and remove all versions of Adobe Reader, shut down all software, and still was unable to load Adobe Reader 8.1.2. I contacted my "technical support group" which is HP in India, and they were worthless on this issue. Any help would sure be appreciated as I cannot open any jpg documents.
