Why does the Adobe Acrobat X Web to PDF converter icon not show up?

I installed Adobe Acrobat X yesterday on this work computer, but the Web to PDF converter icon has not yet shown up. I have the icons, and they are functional, in the Mozilla Firefox on my home computer.

hi WDWPhishFan,
Have you looked at [[The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed]] and [[Opening PDF files within Firefox]]?
The first article has a lot of good troubleshooting steps that might help. The second article actual lists a couple of plugins that can be used for opening PDF files. I'd give both of them a try just in case.
Hopefully this helps!

  • Why does the Adobe Acrobat DC Update Fail on a Mac Running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2?

    I don't have Adobe Acrobat installed anymore, yet CC is still telling me I need to update Adobe Acrobat DC. When I try to update it, it gets to 35% and fails, every time. I've tried quitting and reopening CC; quitting CC, deleting the OOBE folder in my profile, and reopening CC. Regardless, it fails. Here's the output:
    Exit Code: 7
    Please see specific errors below for troubleshooting. For example,  ERROR: DW013 ...

    Hi,
    Could you please retry after restarting the system. This should be fixed now.
    If this issue does not get resolve even after restart then please share the following details :
    1. Operating System information.
    2. Do you have any previous version of Acrobat installed?
    3. Share PDApp.log file from ~/Library/Logs, Acrobat Installer logs (Adobe Setup Error.log and Adobe Acrobat DC 15.007.20033 <Date>.log.gz) from /Library/Logs/Adobe/Installers and install.log from /var/log.
    4. proxy.xml if present in /tmp/58A66F1A-A7D8-4523-AC9C-AF23DB3337F3/proxy.xml .

  • Why does the Adobe Acrobat plugin crash everytime I open a PDF?

    I am currently running the Firefox 11.0, which is the most up-to-date version as of this writing. Every time I open a PDF file, it says that "Adobe Acrobat plugin has crashed". I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro, which came as part of my school's standard software package. The Mozilla website says I have the most up-to-date version of the Acrobat plugin.
    P.S. I recently updated my version of Adobe Reader X to try to fix the problem, but that didn't work. I'm not entirely sure how Reader is related to Acrobat, so I don't know if that would affect my ability to read PDFs in Firefox.

    Why does the Apple tv light come on when I am not using it?

    my atv1 does that sometimes
    I'm 90% sure that it's because it crashed and rebooted
    it's basicly a computer and sooner or later a computer will

  • Why is the extra icloud storage I purchased a month ago, not showing in icloud?

    Why is the extra icloud storage I purchased a month ago, not showing in cloud? I created a new apple id @icloud thinking that my regular email address wasn't acceptable for icloud but the 10 gigs I purchased are still not showing up, nor are any of the apps I've purchased showing in icloud. Why is that?

    You redownlod apps by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Your purchased music, apps, books, and TV shows, as well as your Photo Stream, don’t count against the 5 GB of free storage.
    You said " I created a new apple id @icloud thinking that my regular email address wasn't acceptable for icloud "
    The additional storage would show up when iCloud is signed into the that new account.
    To me it sounds like you should cancel the iCloud storage sinceyou seem not to rally need it.
    For a full refund, contact iCloud Support within 15 days of an upgrade or within 45 days after a yearly payment. Partial refunds are available where required by law.
    For more info see:

  • Why does the RX3870-T2D512E-OC detect as 3800 series and not 3870?

    I am wondering why does my video card detect as a 3800 series and not specifically the HD 3870?  I heard this was fixed with a bios update with Sapphire does MSI need to do the same thing with their card?

    Has been for all the ATI Catalyst drivers.. what other driver is there?  The MSI Drivers are always so far behind so I don't use them of course.

  • Why does the Fireworks save for web function give better results than in Photoshop?

    Having used the trial version of Fireworks, I have noticed that the save for web function gives greater compression and image quality than saving for web in Photoshop. Why is this?
    As Adobe are not continuing in developing Fireworks, does anyone know if will they will improve the save for web function in Photoshop to match the Fireworks version?
    Are there any third party companies who anyone can recommend who will process large volumes of images for web?
    Thanks

    One of my favourite topics ;-P
    First, the save for web function in Photoshop has not seen any real updates in a long time. In Fireworks PNG export allows for fully transparent optimized files with indexed 256 or less colours, which is impossible in the save for web function in Photohop. It is unsupported.
    This is one of the reasons why Fireworks does a much better job than Photoshop. Another reason is that Photoshop adds meta junk in its exported files, and this also increases the file size (and should be removed, because there are also a number of fields which include information about your setup).
    One other caveat is that Photoshop's save for web functions neither allows for a choice in chroma subsampling, and instead decides automatically below a certain quality threshold to degrade the colour sharpness quality. The user has no control over this. (Fireworks also limits the user this way.)
    One thing to be careful of: FW's jpg quality setting, and PS's quality settings are very different - a 50 in Photoshop is not the same 50 setting in Fireworks.
    For jpg optimization I generally use RIOT (free): http://luci.criosweb.ro/riot/
    (When you install, be careful NOT to install the extra junkware!)
    Fireworks cannot change the chroma subsampling to 4:2:0, which does degrade the quality a bit compared to RIOT and Photoshop in my experience. Photoshop adds useless meta information, even if the user tells it not to do that. RIOT allows you to remove that information, saving 6k. RIOT also offers an automatic mode that optimizes existing jpg images without degrading the quality further, and often saves 10k or more, depending on the images.
    Interestingly enough, in my tests exported Fireworks jpg images are always reduced in file size by RIOT, due to FW's jpg export limitations, without any image degradation.
    In my tests FW's jpg quality versus file size turns out to be the worst of all three. RIOT generally wins, or is at least on par with Photoshop.
    As for PNG export, Photoshop's save for web function is quite abysmal. No 256 colour full transparency export is possible, while Fireworks does support this.
    Having said that, there is a free alternative that leaves both Photoshop AND Fireworks in the dust: Color Quantizer. http://x128.ho.ua/color-quantizer.html
    CQ is an amazing little tool: with it anyone can create PNG files with full transparency and reduced to ANY number of colours! It means that a 512 colour PNG with full transparency is now very easy to do. On top of that, for more difficult images a simple quality mask brush tool allows the user to control and retain even small colour details in a PNG, while reducing the file size to an absolute minimum.
    CQ is one of the best kept secrets of a Web Developer's toolkit. And it is free!
    Both RIOT and Color Quantizer have a built-in batch mode. Both are available for WIndows. Not for Mac. If you are on a Mac, try imageOptim. Not nearly as good as RIOT and CQ, but quite passable.
    PS to be fair, the newest versions of Photoshop do allow for export of 8bit PNGs with full transparency through the use of its Generator functionality. But again, it cannot compete with CQ. And as far as I am aware, Generator cannot be used in Photoshop's batch processing (which, btw, is very slow! For simpler daily image processing tasks I have to do in batches, I prefer IrfanView, which is lightning fast! IrfanView).

  • Why does the Adobe Standard profile make a mess of old NEF files?

    Recently I've been reprocessing some old NEF files taken with the Nikon D50 camera years ago, and I was startled to find that the Adobe Standard camera profile does a bad job on them: the photos come out muddy-looking, really unacceptable, with too much yellow and magenta. I can fix the problem by choosing the Camera Standard profile, which gives acceptable results. However, I believe that Adobe Standard is generally recommended by Adobe, and I wonder what the problem is here. Does anyone know?
    I currently use a Nikon D7000, and Adobe Standard seems to work well enough with that camera.
    Later: After checking and comparing more carefully, I think that perhaps I prefer Camera Standard with the D7000 too. Adobe Standard is certainly acceptable with the D7000, but Camera Standard gives blue skies of clearer blue, and less exaggerated reds. So the best fix for me is probably to make Camera Standard my default for all cameras.
    Looking around the Web, I see various people complaining about too much magenta with Adobe Standard, although other people are happy with it.

    Yammer P, thanks for the input.  I have been working with the DNG Profile Editor since the first version was available.  I also started using the Passport software when it was first available.  I first worked on a profile for the D200 and after many attempts I finally have one that works great.  The Camera profiles did not exist at that time and the D200 does not have Picture Control Profiles, I believe that was first available with the D300.  Adobe did generate Picture Control Profiles for the D200 and they are also available in Nikon Capture NX2. 
    I currently have a D700, and have spent a lot of time working on profiles for this camera.  I have used the DNG Profile Editor's Chart Tab to generate profiles for most of the Camera Profiles and Adobe Standard.  I find that Adobe Standard profile is brighter than the Camera profiles by about 0.25 stop.  After working on this for about 2 years I have decided to use the Camera Neutral with a modified tone curve and slight reduction in saturation as my starting point and no changes in hue.  I also generated a modified Picture Control profile for Neutral using the Nikon Picture Control software that has the same characteristics and loaded it into the camera.  I get good agreement between jpg's from the camera and the nef file that opens in ACR without adjustments.   The tone curve I used only has three points - the In/out values are 27/22, 127/127, 228/233 and saturation was set to -5. 
    I don't understand what Adobe changed when they genrated the Adobe Standard Profile instead of the ACR4.x versions, but I like the ACR4.x version better.  

  • Why does the Adobe Help Manager not close?

    I'm not sure what the "Adobe Help Manager" (silly name) is. I notice it as an open application in my toolbar (Windows 7) but you cannot close it. It just stays there. Only goes away when I've restarted my system. Any ideas or comments?
    Generally speaking, I'd like to comment that many of the current Adobe programs (including CC) are not nearly as intuitive as they should be. One wastes quite a bit of time trying to figure out how to accomplish rather obvious functions. Usually will have to go online to find an answer. Should be more obvious and clear. The interface of CC (for uploading work files) seems a "clean" design. Yes, clean... and unintuitive.

    It's been weeks since I've used the file upload 'cloud' function of Creative Cloud, but I do recall I had to seek out numerous youtube videos, as well as some from Adobe's site, to try and figure out how it worked. Dragging and dropping seemed like a very obvious function, but you have to select: Actions: Download, etc. etc. It's a clunky, dispiriting interface.
    So... I just started using google drive instead. I can quickly drag and drop. I work on a PC and a Mac and don't have a shared drive between them (due the usual platform issues) so I like uploading to a cloud server and transferring between the two machines that way. Very nice to compare how the two different systems are displaying an html doc or a photoshop file.
    While the wind is at my back, I really like CC as to the software options, but it is a very daunting experience to consider learning new programs. It's taken me fifteen years of work to be  as proficient as I am with PS (as a photographer and designer). I still find Dreamweaver very difficult and obscure in so many ways. I'm sure that's why you created Muse... but I will not take the time required to learn and new program. It's just a face. Remember in the Matrix when you would learn a huge amount of technical knowledge just by plugging into something? That's what we need (ha ha).
    Now that Adobe is doing away with the distributive disc system for software programs, perhaps the next great leap is the discontinuation entirely of massive software progams themselves. Have no idea how this would happen, but I think patience is coming to an end for learning huge new software programs. Seems like such a relic of the past now.
    Wish Adobe would bring designers more into how their programs work. They all seem to be designed by software engineers, and thus the truly disheartening style of the menues, opening into dozens of submenues, basements, dark vaults, etc. etc. The Adobe interfaces are all uniform now, but it's an old look that goes back almost ten years. Hope the creatives can soon lead to a new approach.

  • Why does the Adobe App Mgr incorrectly insist on a Creative Cloud subscription?

    I have valid and active licenses for many Adobe products, all associated with my Adobe ID. I was using a CS6 license key just fine, until the Adobe Application Manager started complaining and asking for a cloud sub renewal. I do not want to run this under a cloud sub. I have the full license key already. But the Adobe App Mgr does not provide a way to enable it. What to do?

    And on Windows you can't ignore, skip or postpone that installation.

  • Why does the adobe flash plugin crash whenever I try to view a video file?

    When attempting to view video files, except youtube, the Adobe Flash plugin always (this is consistent) crashes. I have sent numerous crash reports. I have since the problem first occurred updated firefox at least twice and Adobe Flash has been updated the same number of times. I have not always had this problem, but now it is recurring. Note: the plugin does not crash if I use IE.

  • Why does the Adobe Flash Player pop up keep on appearing when using the browser. It never used to before the upgrade to the latest version.

    Since updating to the latest version of Firefox the Adobe Flash player pop up continually pops up whether the page needs flash player or not. It even shows for a text page.
    It is very annoying

    You can set the default in "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Plugins" and change that for the Shockwave Flash plugin to "Always Activate".
    You can inspect and manage permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab via these steps:
    *Click the "[[Site Identity Button|Site Identity Button]]" (globe/padlock) on the location/address bar
    *Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
    *Go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab
