Why does a "need restart" pop-up keep appearing with version 9.1.3 update?

I recently tried to update my Adobe Reader to version 9.1.3. My computer told me I needed to restart for the updates to be completed. I did so, but then the same pop-up came up again, the need to restart. Now, whenever I totally restart/shut off my computer, then turn it on again, the same pop-up comes up, telling me to restart it! I mean, under my Programs list, Adobe Reader is listed as being updated to the 9.1.3 version, so I'm not sure why the pop up keeps coming up! I can live with this quirk, it's not a big deal, just curious as to why it's happening!

I was running Adobe reader 8.1.3 and I kept getting the message that my computer needed to be restarted after every reboot.
The problem went away after deleting this folder:
%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe\Updater5
I then went into adobe and clicked Help, Check for Updates.
It finally found version 8.1.4, updated and the message went away.

  • Why does a "need restart" pop-up keep appearing?

    I recently tried to upgrade my Adobe Reader to the version 9.1.3. It then said I needed to restart my computer for the updates to be fully finished. I did so, and the same pop up came up again. Now, whenever I fully restart/shut down my computer then restart it, the same pop up comes up telling me I need to restart my computer! Know why that is? Bad download? I mean, it's something I can live with, just curious why it's happening. By the way, under my Programs list, Adobe is listed as version 9.1.3, the version I downloaded, with the date I updated it on. Weird!

    I have read some similar things for Acrobat here, but you really should ask your question in the Reader forum. You might search this forum for similar comments in the meantime.

  • Why does my Airport Extreme Base Station keep appearing as a Shared device?

    After installing 10.5 my Airport Extreme Base Station keeps appearing with a Windows PC icon under the SHARED list in the Finder, and I don't have a hard drive attached. Does anyone know why it's appearing, and how I can make it go away?

    Even more weird in my case, I have the Airport Extreme show up twice under Shared. One shows an icon of the actual Airport Extreme which is the one that has the hard drive attached and that works fine. The second is named Airport-Extreme and has an icon like its a PC. lol Not sure what's going on here but if you ask me the first one should be there because that makes sense, but I have no idea why the second one is displayed. Must be some sort of bug.

  • HT201250 If time machine backups hourly.  Why does it need to backup daily, weekly and monthly

    If time machine backups hourly.  Then why does it need to backup daily, seekly, and monthly?

    It doesn't.
    What it does is discard intermediate backups at the end of 24 hrs and keep just three spaced backups from the previous day.
    At the end of the next day, that day's will be reduced to 3, and the previous 3 trimmed to one; the last backup of that day.
    Daily backups are kept for a month, then trimmed to the last backup of the week.
    The weekly backups are kept until the disc runs out of space and TM starts deleting the oldest ones.

  • Why does Bridge Need Illustrator to Save as PDF compatible file?

    1. Why does Bridge need Illustrator files to be saved as PDF files? "PDF Compatible File" ticked in the save menu.
    2. Why does saving with this info take so long, even on decent fast modern systems?
    3. Why does Bridge not consistently render the Illustrator files in FULL RESOLUTIONS, seemingly shooting for half resolution much of the time, and simply stopping at that?
    4. Why does "clicking" on the preview inside Bridge bring up the full resolution?
    5. How do I shortcut this process so that every file is previewed in Full RESOLUTION, instantly?
    What is the point of Bridge?  What's its reason for existence?
    First time user of Bridge.

    Since someone is bound to say that this should be asked in the Bridge section... it already is.  And has been referenced back over here.

    Answer wherever you see fit, if you're up to the task of dealing with someone attempting to have a broader view, perhaps also suffering from somewhat objective analysis that sometimes contains direct criticism of the way Adobe does things.

  • Why does m4v need to be converted again

    Hi. I converted a dvd movie I bought into the ipod format .m4v using another converting software program I have. I then imported it into the videos section of my itunes. It would not load into my ipod unless i convertd it again using the itunes conver for ipod option. Why does this need to be converted again for ipod if its already in a .m4v and is there any way i can fix this so when im originally converting my movie with my converting software I can eliminate this last step in itunes. It takes up to 5 hours to convert in itunes. thanks

    I should also add that I am using a AVS video converter which has an IPod 5.5 converting option that makes my movies Highest available quality H.264, 30fps 640x480
    There are more Ipod options availble but im using the Highest quality available one. Maybe I should be using one of these:
    ipod 5x- NTFS Standard quality H.264 29.97fps, 320X240
    ipod 5x- PAL standard quality H.264 24fps, 320X240
    ipod 5x- low quality H264., 20fps, 320X240
    ipod 5x - Best quality (MPEG4, 24fps, 320X240)
    ipod 5x- economy quality (MPEG4, 20fps, 176X144)
    ipod 5x- for tv output (MPEG4, 24fps, 512X384)

  • Why does every 3 mths my ipod keeps on asking for a restore when i did nothing to it

    why does every 3 mths my ipod keeps on asking for a restore when i did nothing to it?

    Either a bad memory/storage location that manifests its infrequently or a intermittent hardware problem like a loose connection.

  • Why does Mac OX 10.6.8 keep making copies of a file anytime I download, copy, or move a file?

    Why does Mac OX 10.6.8 keep making copies of a file anytime I download, copy, or move a file? It will copy, dowload or move the file, then begin making copies until I reboot. This makes it impossible to deal wit hfiles unless I want to spend a lot of time rebooting after every time, then deleting all the redundant copies.

    If I understand what you are saying this is very strange.  Sure you tried Reparing Permissions and all that.  Also sure you're aware that when moving a file from the hard disk to an external - the default is to make a copy rather than a move.  If the movement is with the same disk (e.g. hard disk - hard disk) the Default is a Move rather than Copy.
    Anyway try this: Move a file between location where you would normally have this problem while holding the Command Key (which triggers a Move rather than a Copy).  I would also try quickly setting up a New User Account and see if the problem is present within this New Account.  This may provide a clue as to what is happening.
    Also, what browser are you using when the download problem happens?

  • Why does itunes store not pop up and not tell me why?

    Why does itunes store not pop up and then not tell me why? i"m wondering if it could have anything 2do with me just transefering music with my flash drive?

    Does it show in the Purchased section for downloading ? Click on the Purchased under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage.
    If not then have you tried logging out and back into the account ? If that doesn't work either then try contacting iTunes Support :  http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

    Because your clip properties do not match your sequence settings.
    It will help a lot if you provide details ...

  • I cannot install apps that are upgraded to ios4.. im using iphone 2g 3.1.3 this makes me sad.. why does apple need to updates many apps when we cannot update an iphone 2g anymore..

    i cannot install apps that are upgraded to ios4. im using iphone 2g 3.1.3 this makes me sad.. why does apple need to updates many apps when we cannot update an iphone 2g anymore..

    I am having the exact same problem with trying to sync my iPad with my computer. To make a long story short, I had to reinstall Windows for my computer and therefore had to reinstall itunes.
    I have done back ups in the past for my ipod touch and other ipods with no problems, but unfortunately I have never been able to back up my iPad. During a sync, the iPad would always disconnect from my computer and it would never finish. it would say the connection was lost, but nothing is wrong with the connection.
    So now I have over 100 apps and thousands of pictures that I am afraid will be deleted if I run the sync in itunes. I have tried to transfer purchases and it goes through the list of apps, but nothing is ever transferred.
    Any help would be appreciated. I am not interested in jailbreaking my iPad to solve this problem. There should be a fix for this and I want to upgrade to ios 4.3 as the original poster. Please help

  • Why does a finder window pop up when I open numbers?

    Why does a finder window pop up when I open numbers?

    New Document is one click in the lower left of the opening window!  You could write an AppleScript to avoid that one click, but that may not be worth the candle.
    Note that after that one click you can save an additional click by specifying 'Use template:<your chosen template>' instead of 'Show Template Chooser' in Numbers > Preferences > General.
