Update adobe reader now or wait

I read on pcworld.com that there is an update for adobe reader, although the update only half patches reader. My question is should I update reader now, even though it'll only half patch reader or wait until adobe fixes the problem with a full patch and then patch reader at that time?

Sorry, I have no idea (and no interest) what "someone" mentioned on pcworld.com

Have recently updated Adobe Reader and now unable to open downloaded documents - Message received is could not open 'file name.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). When I check the file it shows Zero KB downloaded but the file appears - any suggestions?

Obviously your download was not successful.
What is your operating system? How exactly do you download such files?

After update, Adobe Reader isn't working properly.

I use quickbooks as my accounting sfotware. Everything was running smooth, untill I updated Adobe Reader. After the update, adobe is running fine. I can open files that were saved prior to the update. But now, everytime, I get quickbook to export a file, it stop responding and I have to force quit it to continue.
Would be great if you could help.
Thanks

Sorry for not being more clear.
When I click 'print' to print an invoice from quickbooks online, a window pops open and usually there is a printer icon on the top left of the page and a preview of what I'm printing loads in the window. The day I posted my original message, however, the window pops up, there is no printer icon, and the preview does not load and I get the following message:
If you don't see a preview inside this window you need to get Adobe Reader, it's free!
1. important, if a file download window opened, close it.
2. click here to download Adobe Reader
3.Follow download instructions
4. cancel this window and click print again.
I uninstalled all versions of Adobe reader and reinstalled the latest version successfully and I'm still getting this message. Thank you for your willingness to help as I really NEED to be able to print invoices for my customers.

How can I stop getting demand to update Adobe Reader when Foxit is set as my default reader?

Windows XP, Firefox 18.
Foxit is set as my default reader, but you (Firefox) keep demanding I update Adobe reader while blocking Foxit from opening. I do not want the current Adobe reader on my machine. Why won't Firefox respect my choice of default reader?

Hello again, madperson. I spent a lot of time this afternoon trying to get back to you but just couldn't find the right place in Firefox...very frustrating. Have just now found an e-mail w/ link back here.
I am just beginning to get the idea that updated Foxit software is not the same as am updated Foxit plugin for Firefox. Firefox is telling me that I have a Foxit plugin installed, v. 2.2.3.111, but I am not sure how current that is.
I took the link you suggested here (thank you!), which does offer some
Foxit plugins for Firefox. However, the latest seems to be for Foxit 5.3, and the new Foxit software I downloaded today is 5.4. So where does that leave me?
Thank you so much for your help!

Can't update Adobe Reader 10.01 (Mac Version)

I am running OS 10.6.7 on a MacPro (MacPro 4,1: 8 core - - 2mx 2.93 FHz Quad-Core Xeon). I installed Adobe Reader 10.01 uneventufully. However, many times when on the web Safari says it can't find Adobe Reader to read a document and I have to locate Adobe Reader manually. This didn't happen until after I updated to Acrobat 10.01. Thinking that this might be a bug, I looked for an update for Acrobat Reader. But when I attempt to update Adobe Reader to 10.03, it goes through the motions and then gives the follolwing error message:
"The update could not be applied because the Adobe Reader application contents were modified since the original installation."
"Please reinstall Adobe Reader and check for updates again."
"Error 1301"
I followed directions, reinstalled Adobe Reader and immediately afterwards attempted to install the update. Same error message.
I threw out the old version of Adobe Reader 10.01, downloaded it again, reinstalled it and then attempted the update, Same error message.
I've repaired permissions, used AppleJack to clean caches, used DiskWarrior to rebuild the directory. Same error message when attempting to update Adobe Reader.
Any suggestion?
Thanks.

REFRESH - I have this same problem. I would like to update this, since I understand there are various security fixes included with each update of Adobe Reader. Is this correct? If no one has an answer, then how can I trash the updater so I at least don't get this annoying message anymore??? It pops up EVERY STINKING DAY!!!

Can not update Adobe Reader as it did not come from Apple App Store.

Can not update Adobe Reader or Adobe Lightroom 5 as they did not come through Apple App Store. Note says I selected not to accept apps other than from Apple. Just started backing up new Iphone and Ipad to Macbook Pro. Is there a setting some where that would allow updates?

Yes there is a setting for that. Open system preferences go to the security & privacy sections, click the lock icon and type in your password. Then in the "Allow applications downloaded from: area tick Anywhere.

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.

Whenever firefox is opened, it freezes. This has occurred after I updated adobe reader recently. What's wrong with firefox and what can I do?

Recently firefox will open but then freeze immediatly. This has occurred after I updated adobe reader. I'm not sure if that affected firefox, but the time period fits. Restarting my computer has no effect on firefox.

The Adobe DLM is not required for Adobe products to work. You can uninstall it by opening the Windows Control Panel and selecting Add or Remove Programs. In the list of programs select Adobe DLM (may be listed as Adobe Download Manager) and click on remove.

Can't launch updated Adobe Reader v10.1.3 in Firefox v3.6.28 in Mac OS X 10.5.8?

Hello.
Is it me or does the newly updated Adobe Reader v10.1.3 does not load from Firefox v3.6.28 in Mac OS X 10.5.8? This is after I click on any PDF links on a web site. Safari had no problems though!
Thank you in advance.

It's not about that, I think, as I got the exactly same bug with Firefox 12.0 / OS X 10.7.3 after the last Adobe Reader update.
However, the release notes are interesting, see p. 6: "If you still require a 32-bit solution, this update also supports Mozilla Firefox for Macintosh when it is opened in 32-bit mode."
So, it seems that the last update is pushing the inline viewer (NPAPI?) plugin to 64-bit Firefox, even that it's known that it wouldn't work. In Mozilla forums some had tried to fix this by forcing Firefox to open in 32-bit mode (via Finder -> Applications -> right-click Firefox -> Get Info -> check Open in 32-bit mode), but I'd rather see the bug itself fixed.
Interesting. Where are you seeing this in Mozilla forums? I didn't see anyone talk about this Adobe Reader problem in Firefox newsgroups on news.mozilla.org news server even after I posted my issue.
It's in this bug report: http://support.mozilla.org/fi/questions/925055 - confirmed already by 230 people, by the way...
Sorry to hear that the 32-bit workaround didn't work for you. (I haven't even tested it yet myself, just disabled the plug-in altogether to get the pdf files even loaded to Preview...)

How can i fix this problem, can't call anyone because all they have is MORE READING!!! And NO HUMAN CONTACT!
YOU SUCK ADOBE!!!

NObody is orced to download Acrobat. Still, you did, you had your trial, and now it's finished. If you don't want to buy it, just uninstall it the normal way (but DONT) just delete it, ask if you don't know how to uninstall. Once it is gone, you might have to repair Adobe Readet. So, be angry but understand you had a choice of what to download. It would help you if you remember the full names of products, there is nothing called Adobe XI.

Update adobe reader now or wait
