Why won't plugin check recognize Adobe Acrobat is up to date?

Every time I open a Firefox window I get a plug-in check tab telling me that my Adobe Acrobat is out of date. I have installed the newest version three times now. I even downloaded the install from Adobe's ftp page rather than the page that plug-in check sent me to just to be sure. The plug-in check page even says I am running version 10.0.1, the latest version I can find, but still insists that one's out of date. What's going on here?

I uninstalled Viewpoint Media Player (and the AOL IM client "AIM", since apparently that's what forced Viewpoint Media Player on to my system.)
Viewpoint Media Player is responsible for the plugin called "MetaStream 3 Plugin r4", and I believe this plugin is triggering Firefox to open the plugincheck page. It is not enough to disable the plugin, it must be uninstalled.
For me, after uninstalling Viewpoint Media Player, the "plugincheck always opening" problem then went away.

  • Plugin Check says Adobe Acrobat/Reader 10.0.1 outdated, yet no higher version exists?

    Other answers here claim there is a 10.0.2, but updating via Adobe.com or Reader say otherwise.
    I am stuck on Windows XP; maybe that's why.

    10.1 is now released -- updating to it solved it for me.

  • Why won't my laptop recognize my iPod nano second generation when I plug it in via USB? It does recognize my ipad mini. I was hoping to transfer music from my iPod to my ad mini

    Why won't my laptop recognize my iPod nano second generation when I plug it in via USB? It does recognize my ipad mini. I was hoping to transfer music from my iPod to my ipad mini

    1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
    2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
    3. Check the USB cable
    4. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
    6. You can use some third party software like this iPod file transfer, it can help you copy files from iPod to computer, and then you can use iTunes to sync the music to your iPad mini.
    7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

  • Why won't my MAC recognize a DVD with JPG...HELP!!!

    I have received 3 different DVD's from this photographer in an effort for me to be able to view my pictures.  None of them work!!  She has now given me a cd and it works fine!?!!?  Why won't my Mac recognize the DVDs??

    A friend of mine turns out a lot of DVD's for and organization that he does photo work for and he has found
    that burning DVD + or - can make a diferance along with the age of the player and he has gone back to
    burning them at the slowest speed possible. (people in the organization sends him old pictures that he fixes
    then burnes a DVD for them and returnes the pictures and DVD.)

  • Why won't my Mac recognize Verbatim Dual Layer blank DVDs?

    Why won't my Mac recognize Verbatim Dual Layer blank DVDs?
    I've just completed a 140 minute project in FCP. I've encoded an MPEG2 file that is 5.75GB in size. Brought into DVDSP and am trying to burn the DVD.
    I have Final Cut Studio 1, latest updates and everything.
    Because of the 5.75GB size I need to burn to Dual Layer DVD. I have Verbatim 4x 8.56GB dual layer DVDs.
    When I click buld/burn and pop in a dual layer DVD I get an error saying "please insert compatible disc".
    Even with every app closed. If I put one of these DVDs in my Mac it simply spits it out after about 20 seconds.
    For some reason the Mac won't handle or understand these Dual Layer DVDs.
    I bought this Mac Pro about 4 months ago and it is the 2 x 2.66Ghz Dual Core Intel Xeon machine and the DVD drive (according to system profiler) is a Pioneer DVD-RW DVD-111D. In system profiler it says "Pioneer DVD-RW DVD-111D"
    Can anyone tell me if this DVD player is actually capable of dual layer, or do I need to buy one.
    In System Profiler under Revision it says: AB09 and under Protocol it says: ATAPI
    Can anyone advise please?

    If you have access to a pc into which you can install the 112, or if you have bootcamp, you can replace the Apple supplied firmware with Pioneer firmware. This should restore full functionality to the drive. The latest Pioneer firmware for the drive is version 1.21 and can be found here: http://www.cdrinfo.com/Sections/Firmware/SingleModel.aspx?DriveId=1426

    I was able to register it though.

    Not a surprise. The Acrobat 8 product family passed into End of Support back in 2011.

  • None of the commnets or other type of annotations on this page are contained in the structure tree, getting this error on full check of adobe acrobat PDF

    none of the commnets or other type of annotations on this page are contained in the structure tree, getting this error on full check of adobe acrobat PDF

    You can find and tag the unmarked annotations using the Tags pane - click the down arrow next to
    the Options icon (near the top left of the pane), then Find > Unmarked Annotations. You will be given the option to tag the annotations - usually they are hyperlinks in which case use the link tag. Then you will need to create the proper tag stucture. Lots of information about that via google, for example the Adobe Acrobat X Professional: PDF Accessibility (Section 508 Tagging) Reference Guide (http://webtools.ca.gov/files/2010/07/acrobat_X_tagging-manual.docx)

  • Why cannot I distribute forms in Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional (when following directions)?

    Why cannot I distribute forms in Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional (when following directions)?

    Hello,
    When you try to open Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional, the application returns the error "Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional cannot be launched at this time. You must launch at least one other suite component (such as Adobe Photoshop) before launching Acrobat 8 Professional."
    Please try to do one of the following solutions:
    * Open another Creative Suite 3 application first.
    *Open any other Creative Suite 3 application and follow the on-screen instructions to enter a serial number and activate your software. Then open Acrobat 8 Professional.
    But if you have MAC OS - Move the Acrobat, Adobe PCD, and Adobe PDF folders.
    Quit any Adobe applications that are open.
    In the Finder, navigate to /Library/Application Support/Adobe.
    Note: This folder path refers to the Library folder at the root level of the startup disk, not the Library folder that is inside a user's Home folder.
    Move the following folders to your Documents folder or another safe location:
    Acrobat
    Adobe PCD
    Adobe PDF
         Important: Do not delete these folders.
      4.  Open Acrobat 8 Professional.
      5.  Enter your serial number when prompted.
    Hope this one could help.
