Using Adobe Acrobat Reader DC

I was trying to download a pdf document form the web.  When I went to do so, I got a message stating that I needed the latest version.  So, I downloaded Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.  The problem is that it does not read any documents that I click.  How do you use this thing?  Why isn't it automatic?

Adobe Reader and Flash Player are different kinds of things, not opposites. You can have both.
However, it still seems that the simplest thing is to just save the document.  Apple have made this easy, but well hidden.
In Mavericks, I have to move the mouse to the bottom centre of the window with the document, then slowly move the mouse up the CENTRE of the document. A little toolbar appears, with four buttons, and button 4 is download. I hate this sort of thing, but that's how they all are these days.

  • Unable to Print using Adobe Acrobat Reader - MacBook Pro - Wireless Environmen​t

    I have a Macbook Pro with 10.6.4 OS
    My printer is the HP Photosmart C5180 All-in-One
    It is connected via ethernet cable to my router (Netgear Wireless N Router) via 10.0.0.1 Wireless Setting.
    I am able to print everything with any programs, except Adobe Acrobat.
    When I send any files to the printer, i get the following error:
    Error:  pstopdffilter/pstocupsraster failed with err number 13
    I uninstalled the driver, installed it (from the HP website latest driver), I'm able to get the printer to work on everything else, I'm able to print a test page, but... I can't print anything with Adobe Acrobat...........
    Any suggestions?  I do use Adobe Acrobat Reader a lot

    OK, let's try more thoroughly uninstalling the hp software for 10.5 using the 'scrubber' option.  First, install the wrong software from the CD (for 10.5) so we can more thoroughly uninstall it.  Next:
    Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ click on HP Uninstaller
    Click on Continue
    Highlight your device on the left pane
    Hold the Ctrl, Opt and Cmd keys and click on Uninstall << This is the scrubber option
    There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall ALL hp software. (At this point, if you continue, any HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
    Click Continue and let it finish
    Restart your Mac
    Now, run a Software Update.
    Finally, download and install the "Full Featured" Driver and Software from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page.

  • Is it possible if I use Adobe Acrobat reader

    Hi all.
    I have some question to ask about Adobe acrobat reader and Adobe acrobat professional.
    Is it possible if I use Adobe Acrobat reader to input data in PDF file that is generated by interactive form using web dynpro or Abap program. I try to use acrobat reader. It can not input anything into PDF Form but I'm not sure it may be can or not.
    After I change PC that is install Adobe Acrobat Professional (offline: I save pdf file form web browser). It can input data into PDF Form.
    Plese let me understand.
    Thank you very much

    1) You only need a Adobe Reader (Version 7.0.9 or higher) to enter and Save data in Adobe form.  Just install the latest version of Adobe reader (8.x)
    Additional Installations on the Client PC
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/73/852854f9d6418b9574dab0d321d258/frameset.htm
    2) Please make sure you are creating Interactive Forms, and not Print Forms.  for example, if you're using Java Web Dynpro, you need to enter the following code to make the form Interactive (so data can be saved within):
    IWDInteractiveForm iForm1 = (IWDInteractiveForm) view.getElement("<name of your form here");
    iForm1.setDynamicPDF(true);

    I am using mysoclab for an online class that I am taking. It requires Adobe Acrobat Reader. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program 6 times and it is still not recognizing it. The mysoclab tech department said I should contact Adobe not them. I am hoping to get this resolved soon so I can complete my class.

    Hello there,

  • I use program PDF Converter Professional.When downloading from the net I want to use Adobe Acrobat Reader to open downloaded pdf forms. Adobe Acrobat is my default program but Firefox keeps using PDF Converter. How do I change this?

    Acrobat Reader is the default program for all variants of pdf files, both in Windows 7 and in Firefox.

    So you have a trial version of Acrobat (that is not activated) installed?  If so, uninstall it.
    Do you also have Adobe Reader installed?  If so, you need to open it once and accept the EULA.

  • How to I stop the Preview Pane in Windows 7 retaining control when I open a PDF document using Adobe Acrobat (Reader is NOT installed)

    I have the preview pane active when selecting PDF Documents.  When I open a PDF document I am unable to save any changes. the error message I receive:
    "The documents could not be saved. The file ma be read-only,or another user may have it open. Please save the document with a different name of in a different folder"
    The document is not read only and no other user has it open.  If I turn the preview pane OFF there is no problem saving changes.  I have also un-installed Adobe Reader.
    Other programs (such as Excel, Word) do not experience the same problems as the PDF documents.
    Does anyone have a solution?

    Hi snoreaustralia,
    It sounds like you just need to associate the PDF filename extension with Acrobat, rather than Preview. Please see this document from the Microsoft Help for instructions on choosing the default program for opening a particular file type (in your case, PDF): Change which programs Windows uses by default - Windows Help
    Best,

  • 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.

    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.
