Acrobat Reader DC: Find and select Tools

Here, it's a problem and a solution. In Adobe Reader MS you can use the hand tool and the selection tool. But you won't get to display in the main toolbar, no matter how deep digging into the menu show/hide.

SOLUTION: move your mouse in the lower part of the screen to display the control on the Tools Page. This is where you'll see the hand and select Tools.

The complete steps are:

1. click on view > show/hide > controls to the Page and make sure that show Page controls is selected.

2. the controls on the page will appear in your toolbar or at the bottom of the screen.

3. to move controls from the page to the bottom of the screen (or your toolbar), click the icon that looks like a bar with a down arrow.

4. you will only be able to see the hand and select tools when the page controls are at the bottom of your screen.

Adobe, I usually like your software, but I spent half an hour looking for a hand icon. Frustration.  >  :-((

Hi daviddmack,

Thanks for sharing with the community! You can also find this useful tip:

If you select use accelerators key unique to access tools in the General preferences, you can access the hand tool by pressing 'H' on the keyboard.

Best,

Sara

  • Is it possible to make the buttons work in Acrobat Reader for iPhone and iPad?

    Hello

    I shopped in the forums, and although several threads are on the same question, I can't find a conclusive answer. I try to open an interactive pdf with buttons (show/hide actions) on my iphone in Acrobat Reader. However, the functions do not work, then they work fine on my Mac. Am I right in thinking that it is impossible to have buttons in interactive PDF work on my iOS devices? All applications are up to date. The buttons were created in inDesign.

    Thanks in advance for your support.

    Hi jom13880393

    I apologize for the issue.

    However, the navigation buttons options you speak is not available in the app and there is no solution for it right now.

  • I have Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, but the editing tools are not available

    Hello.  I bought Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.  However, when I open a PDF file and I click on 'Edit PDF', it does not open the editing tools to allow editing, instead, he asks me to "Learn more," as if I am not already subscribed.  Yes, I'm connected.  I tried to reinstall, but it said I had a newer version installed.  Don't know what is the problem or how to fix.  Help, please!  Thank you.

    To "Modify" a pdf document, you need the full version Adobe Acrobat. If you have purchased a subscription to Acrobat, you need to install it and open your pdf files in Acrobat and not Acrobat Reader.

  • How to quickly find and select a word on a brochure in Photoshop?

    In Illustrator you can simply double-click the object to edit it.  In Photoshop, it seems I have to 'find' the object by clicking on all objects of different layers until I find the one I'm looking for.  Certainly there must be a better way that I don't see.

    I would have understood as well a screenshot. Line instructions are not always useful:

    If the move tool above is selected. I right-click in this area and get a list of the layers under cursor movement.

    If I select 'Isolate Layers' in this menu, it cuts a list very long layer to what is this slider, if I need to do something with this layers like change one frame.

  • When I type .bin in the finder and select a lot 'of this Mac"of files named with letters and numbers with .bin appear

    This happens to someone else? What created these files? I ran the scan, AVG Antivirus and AVAST antivirus with no result.

    I posted this question on reddit.com, but nobody answered.

    Thank you for the help

    First of all, get rid of the A / v software Uninstall it. This thing is useless on a Mac under OS X and this kind of software frequently causes problems.

    the .bin files are 'probably' created by the operating system software. Why do you care what gthey are? Having some kind of problem?

  • CROP tool? On Acrobat Reader DC 2015

    Hello! I'm trying to crop PDF figures to minimize white-rhythm by the terms of a research journal submission. I can't find the tool, even when I followed the instructions online. I have the latest version of the crop tool has been removed? Or where is it hidden?

    My version features two main tabs: 'Home' and 'tools '. I can't see harvest in the tab 'Tools', only other supplements essentially ask I improve and begin to pay every month. It has a little search directory and 'culture' of the results of 0 hits.

    So when I go to 'View' and select 'Tools', I only have the option 'Commentary' and 'fill & Sign '.

    Thank you

  • Plugin check says that the plugin Acrobat Reader (10.0.1.434) is an outdated version. However, I downloaded the latest version of Acrobat and installed. Is there a problem on my PC environment or with the control plugin?

    1 did the plugin check June 10 - got the message that the plugin Acrobat Reader for Firefox and Netscape was an outdated version. You press the update on the page has been redirected to the Adobe site.
    2. download the latest version, AdbeRdr1001_en_US.exe, and then ran the executable locally on the PC. The updated normally. Note: I didn't uninstall the old Acrobat reader before running the executable file.
    3. I went to the plugin check page and I always get the obsolete message for this plugin. Restarting the system (i.e. overnight) and repeated the check, with the same results.
    4 did you open Acrobat Reader app, you tap Help and then search for updates - no new updates have been found. Have, run test Mozilla (Mozilla Privacy Policy PDF) without any problem.
    5. what version of the plugin that should be saved in the Add-ons Manager on my PC?
    6. Please advise on the appropriate action.

    For those who have had this problem. Adobe has released a fix yesterday and you need to update your Adobe Reader immediately. The latest version is 10.1.0. Once you updated your Firefox Adobe Acrobat plug-ins will be automatically updated to 10.1.0.534.

    If you receive a notification of update from Adobe, you can open Adobe and go to: help > check for updates

  • I have a DC account acrobat reader and cannot edit documents

    I have an acrobat reader DC account and I pay for a subscription that allows me to make a few changes of base and my desktop, everything works fine, but when I connect from my laptop (both computers running windows pc 10) he wants me to sign up for a service to allow me to edit the document When I click the button change.  I thought I could go in and use my account from any device?  Any help?

    Hi Gary,.

    You have creative cloud unique subscription App for Acrobat DC. You will be able to activate a single Acrobat DC device at any given time.

    However, you can use the Acrobat online services using Acrobat Reader DC approx. on other devices too, using you can use features such as comment on a PDF document, adding text, PDF export, send for signature, combine pdf etc..

    Just make sure that you are connected using the adobe ID with which you have the subscription for Acrobat DC.

    However, editing function only works with the principal of the Acrobat Pro DC not with Acrobat Reader DC application.

  • Acrobat Reader DC and BabylonRPI.api

    The above mentioned Adobe Reader Plug - in BabylonRPI.api worked in the Adobe Reader 11 without defects. After replacing the 11 with the new Acrobat Reader DC version and having placed the plug-in of Babylon, also, the function of Babylon is more runs by the respective command. I guess BabylonRPI.api needs adaptation to the new version. More info on this topic someone knows?

    You must contact the software company that created this plugin and request a version compatible with CD Player update.

  • PROBLEM update Acrobat Reader

    I renewed the subscription to Bit Defender Internet Security 2016.  When I ran the vulnerability scan, I was told that my version of Acrobat Reader (10.1.10) was vulnerable.  It gave me a link to download Acrobat Reader 11.0.14.  I am running OS Windows 8.1 and my default browser is Explorer.  I went through all the help options, check the settings for security and Active X, ensuring that JavaScript is enabled, disabled my Bit Defender and downloaded Google Chrome.  I managed to download a update in Google Chrome - AdbeRdrUpd11001.msp, but when I tried to open it I got the dialog below.  Any suggestion would be appreciated

    Hello Linda, I understand ran you drive 10.1.10 and BitDefender correctly said it it was out of date, if you want to install 11.0.14 (last version of the XI player), correct?

    Firstly, to launch its own version of the cleanup tool Download Adobe Readerand Acrobat tool - Adobe Labs.

    Access Adobe - Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Distribution , then select drive 11.0.10 to step 3 (this is the latest full installer Adobe released reader XI).

    It would be nice if you could use the update for 11.0.14, but it could "upgrade" you to CD. To avoid this, go in Edition > Preferences > Updater and disable automatic updates.

    It is possible to apply patches yourself. This is the desired non - MUI of the patch version: Adobe - Adobe Reader: for Windows: Adobe Reader 11.0.14 - all languages updated.

    Good luck!
