What program do I use to install Reader under Ubuntu

I am trying to install a later version of Adobe Reader than comes from the Ubuntu repository. When I use Adobe's download Reader page, I get the typical download box that asks if I want to open the file or save it. The default opening program on my system is VLC media player, which can't be right. What program should I select so Adobe Reader installs properly? (The Adobe site says if I get a "run or save" option I should pick "run".

There is one and only one player available on the Adobe website. Use this URL:
http://get.adobe.com/reader/otherversions/
It will give you a few choices for Linuix. I have not clue what would be appropriate for your version of Ubuntu.

  • What are the steps to make it seamless for a customer to use the install program and then use the installed program?

    I wrote an install program (.exe) that is downloaded from a website.  When run, it 1) leads a customer to browse to a directory, and 2) copies files (.exe, .dll, etc.) from a website to that directory.  When I run, the installed program works.

    This site https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/2kt85ked%28v=vs.110%29.aspx provides a basic description of the Visual Studio Windows Installer. 
    Near the bottom of the page is "You can unlock all the features of InstallShield by paying to upgrade to the full version of InstallShield."  Where do I find info that describes the differences between the "free" and the "full"
    versions?

    Hello,
    The default feature does support the task for your requirement, so there is no need to pay for the other features unless you want to use some feature which is not free.
    In addition, as this thread
    InstallShield LE not available with VS 2012 RTM? shared, even through there is a link to InstallShield LE in the New Project dialog under Deployment solutions, but it belongs to third-party that I would recommend you consider posting this issue

  • What program do I use to open a .bundle?

    This sounds like a rediculous question. Also you might not think it was applicable to windows compatibility but it is. I downloaded a dmg of a program called "WINE" (stands for WINE Is Not an Emulator). In it, it has a file called Wine.bundle. Well when I double click on it, it asks me what program I should use to open it. I frankly have no idea... I mean I thought .bundles were just something it opened up. Just like an exe (or more like a zip file I guess) on a windows machine. It's really annoying... I just wanna play a game...:(

    The simple and short answer is that .bundle files are helpers for something else to use. They're not necessarily the "application" that you would double-click and execute.
    Your version of Wine may require that X11 also be installed from your Mac OS X installer disks.

  • What program can I use to open documents

    What program can I use to open documents with; if I am running OSX 10.6.8 and only have Text edit?

    What kind documents of documents do you want to open? Just to read or write too?
    Besides TextEdit, you also have Preview that can display a wide gamut of document types as well.
    As for office documents, may want to download and install LibreOffice to deal with the usual suspects: .doc, .xls, .ppt   http://www.libreoffice.org/

  • I feel I must move beyond iMovie, what program should I use ?

    I have been happily using iMovie and iDVD from versions 1 through 6.  iMovie 08 was so bad that Apple made iMovie 06 available as a free download for buyers of iMovie 08. The newer iMovies were better, but they seemed “dumbed down” (even for me).  Now, I am shocked and horrified to learn that the latest iMovie does not even set chapter markers!
    So, I have continued to use iMovie 06 and iDVD 08 (they seem to work fine under OS 10.9.4).   iMovie 06 is now 8 years old!  I feel compelled to move forward. A lot of my work is DV.    In the past, most of my source material came out of S-Video.   I used a Canopus ADVC300 analog-to-digital converter that gave good results.   Going forward, I will have more video utilizing Component Video, or HDMI.
    I am looking into 2 possibilities,  Adobe Premiere elements 12, or.........Final Cut Pro X.
    The final result of my work is almost always a DVD.   It is hard for me to move from iMovie and iDVD.  I never read the manuals for either program, yet,  I was able to produce DVDs with nice menus and overall quality close to Hollywood.
    It looks like Final Cut Pro X 'can' make a DVD directly without other software.  However, from what I have seen on YouTube the result is primitive compared to what iDVD was doing 10 years ago.
    Adobe Premiere elements 12 can make nice DVDs and Blu-ray's directly.  I have no problem with using a separate program to make DVDs but I haven't got a clue how to do that with Final Cut Pro X.   I suppose I can still use iDVD, but now I'm back to using discontinued software.
    I do not need any of the high-powered affects capability that Final Cut Pro X  possesses.  My “movie-making” is mostly confined to simple editing (the old iMovie 06 did all I needed).
    Frankly, one motivation for choosing Final Cut Pro X, is the excellent, compassionate and understanding support that the kind people on this very forum provide.  So, what program should I use?

    to turn perspective for a second by 180°:
    Why do you want to switch to a new editor anyhow?
    • iM-a never did discs - that was iDVDs job = no big change in your workflow
    • iDVD is still working, and aside obsolete, complex and $$$$ DVDSP (part of obsolete FC/p) or Encore (part of Adobes CC rent package) your only option left to create disks on MacOS is indeed iDVD (...ok, there's Toast and Burn and some weird 'shareware'-stuff...)..
    • iMovie-b supports the new HDef formats (AVCHD) - you mentioned converters and DVDs = no HDef in use, in your habitat, correct?
    • if you don't need FCPX' bling-bling (I can't imagine that ) - why not using FCPX-lite = iMovie? 15$ ...
    • chapters could be done in iDVD - just to mention that ............
    • AP and FCPX are following very different concepts in usage - my personal preference is 200% on FCPX, … I was one of the loudest nay-sayers, when iM08 araised, meanwhile, FCPX is my dream!! AP (tested it) is way too complex, crowded, 'optionalized' and did I mention 'complex' for me. A bit like Windows vs. MacOS: 'everything goes' (incl. getting lost) vs. 'convenience' (incl. restrictions) ... After 2y of practice, I'm editing my weekly hobby-projects with 6-cam-Multicam, incl. tons of  custom graphics, slow-mow, effects (soccer games) in less than 2h ... awesome!
    summary:
    • why switching?
    • use iMovie10 + iDVD
    • Premiere (or Premiere Elements!) and FCPX are both avail as fee trial ... test  it - but you need iDVD anyhow
    • 'disks'  is a dwindling niché, for years!- consider to switch to 'other' distribution options
    ... what are 'chapters' anyhow??... (kid din'!)

    The Disk Utility, Carbon Copy Cloner, SuperDuper, or similar software. For best results, place the second drive inside the computer or in a FireWire enclosure and boot the computer from it before removing the internal drive.

  • VPN Questions... What program should I use?

    I need to connect to a Watchguard Firebox X1000. The only program that I can find that might work is VPN Tracker. I just want to know what program everyone else uses to vpn and why. And if anyone else is in the same predicament as I.

    I need to connect to a Watchguard Firebox X1000. The
    only program that I can find that might work is VPN
    Tracker. I just want to know what program everyone
    else uses to vpn and why. And if anyone else is in
    the same predicament as I.
    It looks like the watchguard supports ipsec and pptp - so you ought to be able to use the built in client.
    If you want to use ipsec and are behind NAT, you can go with vpntracker($) - if you aren't behind NAT you can probably use ipsecuritas(free).
    As for what I use - I use windows built-in ipsec because NAT-T isn't broken in it (hint hint apple... and I refuse to pay what I consider to be too much for vpn tracker, which is mostly a GUI for raccoon (built in open source IPSEC tool). (of course vpn tracker did fix NAT-T with thier own kernel extension - so I would use it if it were less expensive...)

  • What program should I use and various??

    Hi friends,
    I have two questions:
    1) So I have finished my project...how do I fit it onto one dvd? Quicktime conversion??
    2) What program should I use to burn to dvd? I have a macbook.
    3) How do I make chapters on the dvd??
    Thank you so much for assisting

    1. Export a QuickTime Movie. Do NOT use QT Conversion. Import the resulting QuickTime file into the DVD creation program. Don't worry about file size at this point. The DVD authoring application will compress and encode. You can fit about two hours of video on a single-layer DVD.
    2. The simplest method is to use iDVD which probably came with the MacBook.
    3. Playing the FCE Timeline, press M twice, name the chapter if you wish and click the Add Chapter Marker button in the resulting window. Then when you export, make sure to choose to include Chapter markers in the Export window. Within iDVD, I think you can also set iDVD to include a chapter marker at set intervals, but not at specific points.
    Not to be snarky, but that seems like three questions...
    Good luck.

    Hello Tehuti2,
    There are a few ways to transfer contacts from your computer to your iPhone.  I found an article that provides steps on how to import a vCard to iCloud.com:
    iCloud: Import a vCard

    If your PC fits the following specifications, you can setup iCloud to automatically sync contacts with your iPhone:
    Microsoft Windows 7 or 8
    iCloud Control Panel 2.1.2 or later
    iTunes 11 or later (for iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match)
    Outlook 2007 or 2010 or iCloud.com
    Safari 5.1.7 or later or Internet Explorer 9 or later (for iCloud.com and Bookmarks), Firefox 16 or later or Chrome 23 or later (for iCloud.com)

    There is no program that can open Publisher files except Publisher. It doesn't matter whether you use Windows or a Mac, Publisher files must have Publisher.
    Publisher does not have a Mac version so you will need Windows (and Publisher)
