  • Acrobat Reader 11 closes immediately, doesn't open PDF

    Just reformat mioy computer and upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate, now I can't open PDF - reader closes immediately - does not open the PDF file at all.  I can't even open XI player by itself.  I tried to uninstall and roll back to Player 10... same result.  Uninstalled and installed the 9.0 version.  Same result.  I have not yet installed XI, but still failed to open the PDF.  I bought and intalled Office 2013 when I replayed.  Nothing is on my computer again except Avast antivirus and firewall, Skype, IE 10 and google chrome.  Any ideas?

    You can try Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, and then double-click Eula.exe and accept the license agreement

  • Firefox doesn't open PDF - I tried most of the help topic, nothing has worked

    For a week or more, FireFox wasn't able to open pdf files in the browser. The page is empty, nothing happens. Im still able to click with the right button on a pdf file and make a backup action if.
    Ive read several other subjects and tried some things like change the preferences on what program should open the pdf file, or how it must be open (or rather save as). None of them worked.

    One solution, I have not tried, that might work, but should be my last resort, would be to uninstall and reinstall FF.
    We hope to see if anyone has a tip about thow to change this.

    Note: there is no if long I updated Adobe version (v2015), which is actually named "Adobe Acrobat Reader DC" now.

    These have?

  • How can I get Adobe Acrobat Reader DC for open PDF files in their own separate windows?

    I find it interesting that in support of multiple monitors becomes more standard in operating systems, applications start requiring all documents related in the same window, such that sometimes you have to use Registry hacks to get documents in separate windows to be able to easily compare side-by-side all multiple monitors.

    First it was Microsoft Excel... now, it seems that Adobe Reader required documents in a single window.

    Although Adobe Reader at least allows you to click on the "Window" menu and choose "New window" to "move" a PDF file in a separate window (quite annoying rather than actually move the tab selected in the new window, it opens another copy, which requires that you always close the first copy in the original window). I prefer the default behavior to automatically open documents in a new window when I double click on it in Windows Explorer to open them.  At least give me a preference option for this...

    Does anyone have solutions of (permanent) workaround for this?  I know there are changes in registry for Excel (that I put in place)... I hope it's easier for Adobe Reader.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Please navigate to Edit > preferences > General > uncheck "open documents as new tabs in the same window(requires restart). > once unchecked please re-launch Reader.

    You would not be able to see the documents in separate windows.

  • Opening PDF files on the only current desktop (Mac)

    Is there a way to configure Adobe Reader DC such opening PDF documents only on the current desktop of OS X (10.10.5) I'm on?  For example, I have 2 separate projects that I work on each with a set of PDF files.  Project A is desktop 1 and B project on desktop 2.  I open a PDF file in 1 Project Office.  Then I switch to Desktop 2 and open a different PDF it.  The default action, Adobe Reader DC done is open the 2nd PDF as a tab on the window of Adobe Reader DC of the office 1, with a tab next to the PDF of the project.  What I would like is for Adobe Reader open the PDF of the project B on Desktop 2 (or any desktop computer, it's on) and NOT on the (pre-existing) window on desktop 1.  The version of Adobe Reader would open a new window for each PDF file to the desktop, I was on and not switch to a window of Adobe Reader already existing (and open).  How to get an Adobe Reader DC back to the same behavior as in Adobe Reader 11 short demotion to Adobe Reader 11?

    Thanks in advance.

    The file you are trying to open is (you can see from the name) a BMP, PDF files no file. Adobe Reader can only open PDF files, just so stop trying to open it with Adobe Reader. The app, users of Windows for BMP files is painting.

  • Windows 10 - cannot open pdf files in MS Reader

    Hello, I have recently updated my phone company to 10 Windows in Windows 7. I have been using Acrobat Reader XI without problems. Since I was walking, opening PDF files always ends without response. After you open the PDF, he held only icon for a few seconds and then nothing (not even a blink of a new window / frame). I already tried several methods:

    • Uninstalling XI player associated with the application of advanced uninstaller. Put it back, with Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.
    • Complete uninstall of the CD with AdobeAcroCleaner_DC2015 player. Then reinstall > unsuccessful
    • I also tried the CD Player update to the latest version, and then using to repair mechanism (help > repair installation) > same result

    When I open the CD (shortcut or *.exe) directly, it runs normally and it allows me to open probably almost any PDF file as in the past. But if I trie to open any PDF file, it doesn't do anything. After consulting the table of processes through the Task Manager, I discovered that there are two processes that are running in the background "Adobe Acrobat Reader (32-bit) DC". It is + 2 after trying to open another PDF file / CD player.

    I also had this same problem on different machines. This is quite annoying, because I don't want to use the native Windows player...

    My current status:

    HP ZBook 15, i7-4800MQ, 16 GB of RAM

    MS Windows 10 Pro (64-bit)

    Adobe Acrobat Reader DC - Czech (15.008.20082)

  • Foxit Reader does not open online pdf files

    I use Firefox 3.6.11 and Foxit Reader 4.2. I have no problem opening pdf files that I saved. But when a website wants to open a pdf file, I get a blank page.

    Another thing you'll need to do after you open Foxit tools and check both boxes, is to open Firefox, go to: Tools > Options > Applications. Scroll to PDF Document under Content Type. Cross action, click on the arrow to open the drop down menu and select: use Foxit Reader.
