What is happening with Adobe reader?

Is anyone else having problems with Adobe Reader since the last upgrade?

Well here is the latest after ten failed downloads...
ANNOUNCEMENT: Adobe Reader and Mac OS X.7 (Lion) Compatibility
Hide Details
Adobe Reader is not fully compatibile with OS X.7 from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/908/cpsid_90885.html
Overview
Adobe Reader plug-in and Acrobat plug-in are not compatible with the Safari 5.1 browser, which will ship with Mac OS X 10.7 and for 10.6 in July. Adobe Reader and Acrobat will continue to work as standalone applications on Mac OS X 10.7 and 10.6, and will render PDF documents outside of the browser. In addition, Safari 5.1 renders PDF documents natively. However, the Adobe Reader and Acrobat plug-ins will not function as expected in LiveCycle and Acrobat workflows that require either plug-in to render PDF documents in Safari 5.1.
Affected Customers
Applications that require the Adobe Reader or Acrobat plug-in to render PDF documents in the Safari browser will be affected. For Adobe Reader, Acrobat, and LiveCycle customers who utilize functionality like forms, digital signatures, portfolios, guides, 3D, extended PDFs and rights management, and who require the Adobe Reader or Acrobat plug-in to render PDF documents in the Safari browser, Adobe recommends that you continue to use Safari 5.0.x and Mac OS X 10.6.
Workarounds
Adobe Reader and Acrobat will still work as expected outside of the browser. For cases in which a user can open a PDF document in Safari, but cannot use all of the functionality in the PDF because it requires Adobe Reader or Acrobat, the user can save the PDF file from Safari to his or her computer, and then open it directly in Adobe Reader or Acrobat.
In other cases, such as Adobe Reader, Acrobat and LiveCycle applications that utilize functionality like forms, digital signatures, portfolios, guides, 3D, extended PDFs and rights management, viewing a PDF inside the browser with the Adobe Reader or Acrobat plug-in may be required, and thus this workaround will not be successful.

I love the suggestion I go back to Snow Leopard just when Apple announced a new OS. So that make them three operating systems behind, right?

What to do with Adobe Reader?

Reader X was freezing. Runtime klunked it every time. So Reader XI was installed "successfully" and that turns pdf docs into dark gray blank. I'm running Windows 7, plenty of space, etc. etc. I've restored the system and tried again. Same responses to both.

Are these local or online documents? If online, what browser?
Can you post a screenshot of such a "dark gray blank"?

Problem printing patterns with Adobe Reader 9

Hello all
We have a mix environment of Windows 7/Vista with Adobe Reader 9.2 and Windows XP/2k with Adobe Reader 8.1.7. Documents including charts with patterns created with the option Save as PDF from Word 2007(SP2) look and print fine with Adobe Reader 8, but the same documents look and print the patterns a lot more compressed with Adobe Reader 9. All computers print to the same printers with the same print drivers (a windows print server). Attached is a sample PDF file. I've installed Adobe Reader 9.2 also on Win2k and WinXP computers with the same results, so the problem doesn't come from the OS.
Any idea on what's wrong with Adobe Reader 9? Is it a configuration problem or defaults changed in Adobe Reader 9?
Thanks in advance.

You need to use Adobe Acrobat; Adobe Reader does not support editing.

I'm told there is a virus associated with Adobe Reader. How can I tell if my machine is effected and if so what is the cure. I'm running OS X10.6.8 on an iMac with safari 5.1.5

There are no viruses currently affecting the Mac but there is something called Flashback which is malware that has been doing the rounds and affected many Mac users. Apple have released some updates to Java that should remove it and improve protection. Run Software Update to see if there is anything for downloading.
A few precautions that can help prevent your Mac becoming infected:
If you use Flash only download it directly from Adobe.
In all web browsers disable Java (but do leave Javascript on as that's something else).
In all web browsers make sure downloaded files aren't set to automatically open after downloading.
Consider disabling Java completely (launch Java Preferences in the Utilities folder and disable it - you'll likely rarely, if ever need it. If you do just turn it on and off again when your done).

Firefox 17.0.1 on my Mac OSX 10.7.5 will no longer work with Adobe Reader 11.0.0. What shall I do to fix it ?

When I try to read a page with Adobe Reader I get the following message:
Adobe Reader cannot show documents in this browser.
Why is that ? It occurer a short period ago, and prior to that I have had no problem.
I have no problem when I use Safari - but normally I prefer Firefox.
So, please help me - and tell me what to do.
Thanks in advance.

You can disable the Adobe Reader plugin in Firefox (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) and use the external Adobe Reader application or Preview application instead.
*Firefox > Preferences > Applications > Adobe PDF document : Use Adobe Reader
PDF files may also be found under another entry like Portable document.

Hello,
How can I give a answer back in the discussion on Adobe.com?
I don’t see any link?
1.      We have a subscription.
2.      Im converting a newsletter from the web to PDF.
3.      Sometimes I put a weblink behind the image in the newsletter. Most of the time PDF wont take the links behind the image.
Only the tekstlinks are OK.

Open PDF file with Adobe Reader - Asks me what Firefox should do - every time

Hi,
Everytime I want to open a PDF file, Firefox asks me 'What should Firefox do with this file'.
I have Open WIth Adobe Reader (default) selected and I have the 'Do this automatically...' box checked.
So it seems to me that Firefox should not ask me every time.

Hi - I don't want it to always ask; I want it to never ask.
Having said that, I changed my option setting to 'always ask' and the next time I tried to open a PDF document, the dialog box opened asking me what to do. The 'Do this automatically...' box was unchecked as expected.
I checked the 'Do this automatically...' box and now Firefox no longer asks.
Weird way to solve the problem, but it appears to work fine now.
Thanks

Every Programme that it is opened with Adobe Reader doesn't work What Can I do ?

Every Programme that it is opened with Adobe Reader doesn't work What Can I do ?

More information please.
Version of Reader? OS? Can you open reader by double-clicking on its icon? Can you open reader by double-clicking on a pdf file? What programs are trying to open reader? Some programs might be restricting your ability to view pdf files using the Reader plug-in due to security concerns. If this is the case you need to find out how to enable the plug-in in the case of each application.

I have an iPhone 4 ... MC536LL ... I read that this version its unlocked factory, but this one i cant used like an unlocked Phone.... Can somebody told what is happen with it?

As RG said, you cannot determine solely from the model number whether an iPhone is unlocked or not. In what country and from what dealer did you buy this iPhone?

Having compatiblity issues with adobe reader. What pdf file software should I use with Mac

Having problem with Adobe reader what software works well on mac for pdf file creation/reading and sending via email. Also how do I uninstall adobe reader so that all hints of it are erased.

To remove the Adobe PDF Reader:
1. Drag the Adobe Reader folder from the Applications folder to the Trash
2. Remove AdobePDFViewer.plugin from the Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder
Macs offer good PDF capability in the operating system. You can use Word or other program to create somthing you want to save/send in PDF format, then choose print, click on the PDF button at the bottom of the print window, where you can choose to email the PDF file.

Open PDF Attachment with Adobe Reader put GW to background

Hello all,
We have problems with opening pdf attachments from GroupWise client 12.02 with Adobe Reader 11.0.06. The attachment opens fine, but when opening the attachment, the mail and GroupWise client immediately are placed to the background in Windows. So when closing Adobe Reader, the user won't come back in the mail but in another application that was open and the user have to click on groupwise in the taskbar to go back to the mail.
There is no problem with opening other attachments from other applications (like Word or Excel) or when opening the pdf with Adobe Standard. It happens with every user.
They are working in a Citrix Xenapp 6.5 environment on Windows 2008R2 (it also happens if working in a RDS session)
Any thoughts?
Regards,
Jaap

Are you trying to say that all of the apps mentioned are running as
XENapps? If not please specify which are local vs remote.
What is the client OS being run as that may also factor in.
Worth trying another PDF reader such as FoxIT reader to better see
which side is driving that behaviour.

Issue with Adobe Reader (Desktop app) on Mac OS X Lion

Hi there,
I want to print a pdf like a booklet.
I first try with Adobe Reader 9 but it says something lik "Unable to print document" and "no pages selected for print". And the print to pdf doesn't work either.
here is a screenshot of the parameters pop-up (sorry it's in french)
After that I decided to install Adobe Reader X (10.1) but when I choose print from the menu nothing pop-up it's like if print was disable (but the text in the menu is not grayed out)
So how can I achieve what I want to do?
PS: I cannot install the 10.1.1 update. I've tried two way: first from the drop down menu it says that an internal error has happened (the loading of an application's ressource failed), second I've downloaded the update from the website and an internal error occurs during the installation process.
Thanks in advance

Thanks for the suggestion! I found what the problem was. I dragged the old Adobe folder to the trash in an attempt to uninstall it. I then downloaded a fresh copy and installed that. When the Adobe 5.0 folder (for Adobe Reader 5.0.5) was open, I saw the "CoolTypeCarbonLib" file in it. I then double-clicked the Adobe Reader icon and it started just fine. Then, I pressed the Alt/Option key and dragged the Adobe Reader icon to make a copy on the desktop. When I double-clicked the icon I created on the desktop, I got the "CoolTypeCarbonLib" error. So, I made he mistake of incorrectly making a copy of the Adobe Reader icon on the desktop.
Now that it's working, how can I make an Adobe Reader icon on the desktop that will actually work?
have the Software Update CP check if you need any
updates. You don't have to use the Software Update CP
to download and install them, but I'm betting it'll
report about 6 required updates you should get.
CarbonLib v1.6 will be one of them.
As well as iTunes v2.0.4, AppleScript v1.8.3, Java
1.2.6, etc.
Ok, how do I do this? I'm not really a Mac user.
Thanks!
Peace...

Unable to open files associated with Adobe Reader - program goes into a loop

i am unable to open any file associated with adobe reader or adobe pro. when i double-click the file, adobe reader opens up but it goes into a loop.
adobe reader opens, then a progress window opens, as if the file will open but adobe closes and opens again and the same cycle repeats itself until i manually close the program.
any advice?
update:
i can open regular .PDF files when i double-click the icon and i can also open .PDF files when i open adobe reader first and then choose open file. it's just the .FDF files that are the problem (so far).
the file in question happens to be an .FDF extension, which is an internet generated form. i attached a screen shot of the screen that pops up, goes away, and pops up again that creates the loop.
the white out section is the server name where the file was saved to. but i also get the same symptoms when i am in internet explorer, hit the generate form button.

hey ankit,
sorry i didn't see a notification that you replied to this discussion.
"1. Generate a new PDF and a FDF file. Try opening the same and see if it behaves the same way."
yes, it does behave the same way, it's just a continuous loop until i have to kill the process.
"2. Check if you have access to the PDF that is being used by the particular FDF."
by this do you mean the correct permissions? if that is what you mean, then yes, the permissions are set correctly.
"3. If possible, please send me the FDF and the associated PDF that is behaving in this way on your system."
i really wish i could but the information in the form is sensitive and cannot be sent.
as an update though, i reimaged the customer's workstation, installed Adobe Reader 10.1.1 and it worked perfectly (finally). HOWEVER, after about two weeks the same symptoms returned!
