  Search for a file that you have downloaded

  This information applies to Windows Internet Explorer 7 and Windows Internet Explorer 8.

  When you use Internet Explorer to download a file from Internet, you are usually asked where you want to store the file. If you specify where you want the file to be stored, Internet Explorer try normally put a file in the appropriate place. For example, documents and Web pages are normally saved in the Documents folder, music music files in the folder, and the images and graphics are saved in the pictures folder. In Internet Explorer 7, which could potentially harmful, such as executable programs, files are saved in the folder of the first temporary Internet files, and then copied in the folder you specified.

If you save multiple files, Windows will normally remember the last folder you have saved, if you do not have to specify the folder again.

  Double-click the file "eula.exe" (it may just say "EULA")

  Accept the license agreement.

  Open drive and you should be able to open a PDF file.

• Why the Adobe reader won't open my jpeg files?

  Why the 11 adobe reader won't open my jpeg files?

  Hi Nassman,

  Adobe Reader is a single reading software for PDF files. JPEG is not a supported format that would open in Adobe Reader. You must open the Jpeg in application that supports this file format. (for example, Photoshop, Picture Viewer, MS Paint)

  I hope this helps. I would like to know if you have any further questions.

  Kind regards

  OK, so if I understand well, and let me be clear... we buy Acrobat Pro product.  At this point, I need to uninstall the product, READER and Acrobat Pro product must do everything for me.  Right?

  Thank you!!!

  That is right.

  If you have Acrobat you need not drive in any case since the drive is only for viewing of PDFs and Acrobat has that covered already.

• Adobe Reader does not open local PDF files / online

  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.

  I uninstalled and installed again, but the problem persists. This happens with all of my pdf files.

• Adobe Reader XI hangs just push a button

  It is a problem, I first noticed on my boyfriend's computer. He was running Windows 8 at the time, now upgraded to 8.1. Also, it happens to me on my computer.  I also run Windows 8.1.  To reproduce the bug:

  (1) open a document in Adobe Reader XI.

  2) press a key on the keyboard OR press on any peripheral on the mouse. (which means not left/right click buttons)

  (3) adobe Reader XI will close.

  I reinstalled the software both on his and my computers. I did the cleaning before reinstalling, etc. of the registry. Nothing suits him. The software crashes as soon as I hit any key on the keyboard or the mouse. Note that I can click on the page with the mouse left/right buttons.  I can scroll with the mouse wheel. But if I hit any other button of the mouse, such as wheel of mouse, front/rear, zoom button, the software crashes.  It is reproducible for me on both computers to 100%.

  Any advice?

  Thank you in advance for any help you can give.

  Does the problem disappear when you turn off Protected Mode [Edit |] Preferences | (Improved) security]?

• Plugin from Adobe Reader does not allow to save files

  When pdf files are opened in firefox using the Adobe 10.1.12.15 plugin, I'm not able to save them to the disc. The 'save' button at the bottom of the screen of hover, but clicking on it does not any action. Nor do CRT-SHIFT-S or the Adobe menu bar display and pressing on "save under...". "from there.

  Restarting the browser sometimes helps.

  Any tips? And no, I don't want to save a PDF as the first option. I want the open by default in Firefox and save when I need/want to do.

  He solved. Problem seems to have been a process Acrobat crashed. Just kill all Acrobat tasks in the Task Manager, reload the link in the browser and the 'save' button works now.
