Want to get Adobe PDF Helper Deleted From My Computer!

Today I was trying to print a coloring page for my son and ended up loading Adobe PDF Link Helper onto my computer somehow. Now I can't print anything, it just brings up a Save As screen with my document. I just want it deleted and to go back to normal so that I can easily print again! Any help??

If its IE then you can go to IE Settings->Manage Add-ons and Disable Adobe PDF Link Helper. Check the same with other browsers, if you have one.

After 9.3 update getting error printing to Adobe PDF while converting from Powerpoint to PDF

That happened after upgrading Acrobat Pro 9.1.2 to 9.2->9.3 on Windows XP sp2 platform. Converting from other Microsoft Office 2003 products is totally normal(Excel, Word) Did anyone came accross and know how to fix that?? We have many users with exactly same issue.

thanks...figured out my problem!

Is it possible to remove Adobe PDF 8.0 from the list in "Add Printers"

When I add a printer on my system, there is a printer named "Adobe PDF 8.0" on the Add Printer list. I believe that this is a remnant left over from previous versions of the operating system (from Leopard or so). Can this item be deleted from this list? It isn't functional at all, and I'd rather not have it cluttering up the list. I've searched through the system looking for anything that could be causing this item to be listed there, but there appears to be no .PPD file or any entry in a .plist file that I can find. I've seen other people asking about this printer, but more from the perspective of "how to get it working" or "how do I print to PDFs now?". That isn't my question. I just want to nuke this item from my "Add Printers" list like it never happened. Thanks for any leads you can offer.
See screen shot below if you are confused as to what I am talking about. The top "Adobe PDF 8.0" is from my computer. The second one is something someone is incorrectly sharing from their computer (which I will remove as soon as I get access to it).

I tried manually removing some files but still the Adobe PDF 8 appeared in the Add Printers > Default view.
I then ran the Adobe Acrobat uninstaller and this successfully stopped the Adobe PDF 8 "printer" from appearing. Thankfully the Uninstaller also created a log file that I have posted below showing all that was removed from the Mac. Note that you probably don't have all the files listed, especially if you have already removed Acrobat 8 from this Mac, but if you remove the files that are remaining then this will be sure to stop the printer from appearing.

Why can't I get adobe pdf translator to open?

why can't I get adobe pdf translator to open?

Perhaps because you don't know what you have (because there is no product called "adobe pdf translator"), Also perhaps because you aren't in a place to get support from Adobe. If you'd like us in the community to try to help, we might, if you can help us understand what is wrong. What is the specific product you are trying to use, and what happens when you try to use it. Please give any error messages exactly.

How do I get Adobe to help with an installation problem?

I removed Windows Vista, and installed XP instead. Then tried to install CS3 using the file I downloaded from Adobe 2 years ago. It installed Acrobat, but the other components (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator) failed with “Component not installed.” No error message. Never even asked for my serial number.
Phoned Adobe support on Sunday: closed.
Phoned again on Monday. Told to run CSClean. Did not solve problem. Phoned back. Swapped around departments (2 hours total on hold.) Promised they would email a link to download the installation file again. No email sent.
Phoned again Tuesday. More hours on hold. More promised link. Never sent.
Phoned again Wednesday. More hours on hold. Finally given a zip file link. Downloaded it 3 times, using different software (browser, FTP client.) I received the exact number of bytes on Adobe’s server, but the file is “not a valid archive” — rejected both by Windows itself and by WinZip.
We’ve now lost 3 days work, and cancelled clients for Thurs as well.
Utterly frustrated! WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO TO GET ADOBE TO HELP???

No, this is not what iTunes Match does. When you enable the service it leaves all the original files right where they are and mirrors your library in the cloud by either matching tracks to tracks available on the iTune Store or uploading tracks to the cloud. The service does not delete files from your HDD.
I am unsure what you mean by "library icon" or "itunes library file" but if you mean the iTunes Library.itl file the size of that file is irrelevant.
Before you enabled the iTunes Match service approximately how many songs were in your iTunes library and where were they stored? On the internal HDD of the computer, or on an external? Also, do you have backups?

How to get Adobe PDF to show in Printer dialog

Hi,
I just installed CS2 on my new Dell Inspiron laptop with Windows 7.
I can't get Adobe PDF as an option in the print dialog box. The Acrobat help files have help on how to configure it once it is in there but no guidance on how to get it installed. If I remember correctly it installed as part of Acrobat Professional on my previous Dell Laptop running Windows XP.
Thanks,

Acrobat 7 Professional.
I guess that explains it then.
Does this mean I will not be able to use any of the functions of Acrobat in Windows 7 of just some?
Can you recommend a site that might provide more info?
Thanks

Why can't we get Adobe Photoshop help on the weekends. If I buy it I should be able to use it.

Why can't we get Adobe Photoshop help on the weekends. If I buy it I should be able to use it.

To all frustrated Photoshop users:
As has been pointed out, the Adobe Photoshop Forum is NOT staffed by Adobe employees (though a few engineers DO stop by, when they have the time), and we are but users, such as yourself. The difference is that many users here have decades of experience with Ps, and can often solve all sorts of issues, of a technical nature.
Ranting, and listing bad experiences with Adobe Technical Support (or Customer Support), will NOT reach Adobe - just other users, who might have also had negative experiences with Adobe T/S, but who are powerless to change anything, at a corporate level - also noted by others in this thread.
We, as users, have no access to any communications that you might have had with T/S - no phone logs, no case numbers, nothing. All that we have is what YOU provide us, regarding YOUR problem. In that vein, if you read this FAQ Entry, plus the one linked in Station_Two's Reply above, and clearly state YOUR problem with the program, someone will attempt to help you with it: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4587299#4587299
Please be patient, as we are all volunteers (even the Adobe engineers come here on their own time - it's most likely not part of their job descriptions), and drop by the forum, when we have a moment. Many users DO have "day jobs," and face client deadlines. They might not get by that often, and then with breaks in timing, that can extend for days. This is not a "live chat room," where "operators are standing by." However, with the number of contributing users here, it should not take too long, before someone DOES reply to your post. If they have questions, please answer them, to the best of your abilities, and do not hesitate to ask for clarifications, if you are not sure what they are asking, or where to obtain that information. Also, please be courteous, when replying to the users, who are donating their time - they get zero, beyond the satisfaction of helping other users get answers and solutions. If they DO help, which is likely, a simple "thank you," is the best that they can receive. If they DO help, please take a moment to let them know, and also use the "Correct," and "Helpful" buttons in the forum, to let Adobe Corporate know that you got help in the Adobe Forums - they DO count those numbers, though they do not monitor these forums.
Good luck, and many feel that the help FROM the Adobe products forums, is much better, than from Adobe Technical Support.

Did you choose the wrong back up? There should be a drop box when you go to "Restore from Back up" in iTunes and your iPhone is plugged in, on the Summary page. Choose the correct back up. If you can't find one, and you still have your device, back up your iPhone 4 again and then choose that back up. Or check for an old iCloud back up if you have one.

Hello Tina,
Thank you for the question. It sounds like you would like to download your songs from iTunes Match. You can do this by turning iTunes Match back on and clicking the cloud icon with the downward facing arrow next to the songs that you would like to download to your computer:
Available for Download
This icon appears when a song is available in iCloud and hasn't been downloaded to your local library.

No. Reader will not damage files. It is only meant to read pdf files. PDF files are frequently damaged when sent as email due to encoding issues.

Reinstall it from the computer's original disks or an iLife 09 or earlier install DVD, and then run all applicable iPhoto updaters.
