Adobe Reader does not open Flash Player on my iMac
Hi people,
For some reason, I can't install Flash Player. I used to have on my iMac, but now doesn't, maybe I deleted by mistake somehow?
I tried to re - download the app but you keep getting the message as below.
I even tried to copy the download on a Flash drive to my Mac Pro (on which it works fine) and save it directly in the utility folder on my iMac, still no luck. When I click the icon it comes only with the option 'remove' Flash Player
You have any ideas?
See you soon
Peter
Hi Peter,.
By double-clicking on the DiskImageMounter.app does nothing by itself. You must first right-click on the DMG you want to open, and then select Open with, then navigate to the location where is DiskImageMounter.app. After choosing DiskImageMounter.app, introduce a 'Always open with' box at the bottom of the window. This will make the default application to open DMG files, as in this screenshot:

You can not post attachments in the forum; only insert images in the post.
Regarding the Flash Player message; If this document contains all the rich media, you will need to install the Flash Player plugin (and not the control ActiveX that is already installed in Windows 8 IE10).

20/09/2014: had the Mavericks for ~ 1 month. Acrobat Reader from Adobe work very well.
OS X Got notice of Acrobat update 10.9.4. I did and it could not be updated and got the above message! V. 10.1.12. I searched and found Acrobat v. 11.0.07, I trashed/uninstalled Adobe Reader 10. app & also trashed; Adobe Acrobat.com.app folder.
I D/L new software Adobe Acrobat Reader v. 11.0.07. It worked fine!
Then I upgraded OS X in v. 10.9.5. new software Adobe Acrobat Reader v. 11.0.07. Always worked well! Hours later, he failed to start with the error message above again!
(Crash newspapers available if necessary to solve this problem)
Now using Mac preview to open PDF files.
BTW, I clicked on 'get Info' on the reader app & see that a box has been ticked "open in 32-bit mode". Given that my Mac is 64-bit, I unchecked that box & tried again launch & same exact error.
Thank you!

Hello! When I try to open local or online PDF files, Adobe Reader opens aandd... rest like this. The program does not show me the document, and then closes.

Software Adobe reader could not open 'example.pdf' because it is not a file type supported or because the file has been damaged... I act not I have a problem with the 11.0.0.379 version that I have used before and I think that this problem of due before 11.0.9 version and is on the later version, including the "Adobe reader DC" the workaround that I opened the PDF file of the file in Notepad and delete the text in the top starting by <? XML 1.0 encoding and save. This fixes the problem on small files, but it does not work in larger files... How should I solve this?
If you generate files with anything before % PDF, these files are faulty. It is never allowed, but player used to tolerate it for compatibility with an obscure format Mac.

I updated to Windows 10 and then back to Windows 7. Now Adobe Reader does not work. He said: I'm missing acroread.msi. I tried to uninstall the program, so I could re - install, but it will not uninstall either lack of acroread.msi. Can anyone help? I tried all the troubleshooting steps that I could find in the forums and online without success.
I managed to fix it. I found the Mr. Fix It tool on the Microsoft Web site and who was running, and it worked. He fixed the corrupted registry file and allowed me to install the player. I had tried it once before, but it has not been successful. This time, it worked.

I get an error msg when I try to open a file using adobe reader software. Error States: Adobe Reader could not open ' heels 2014 001.exe bmp because it is not a supported type, file or because the file has been damaged (for example: he was sent as an attachment to e-mail and has not been decoded correctly.).
I tried to send an email with attachments 44 and would not send the email. Ever since I tried to send this e-mail, I have been doing the error msg.
Anyone know how I can get this to work for me again?
Thank you, any help is greatly appreciated.

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.

Several files have been created and they are on my desk. When I try and open the files I have Adobe Reader could not open 'hs_err_pid14036.log' because it is not a type of file supported or because the file has been damaged. What can I do?
It seems to me that your system file associations are out of step and must be properly configured.
First, you will need to know what to use to open these files. Then you can Google how to set the file associations for any operating system you have and go and put them in the correct application.
As to why they are generated, not sure, but not something from Adobe.
