Adobe X problem

Feb 12, 2011 3:11 PM

I was having issues with my Adobe reader and wonder if the latest upgrade had not be

successful.  So, I uninstalled the reader.  I downloaded Adobe X and now I am having several problems, some of which I see here.  I cannot bring up files from the web in Adobe.  This is very frustrating since all my statements are electronic.  All I get is the gray background and nothing else.  Also, when I attempt to open Adobe X from the desktop I get an error that it cannot open in "Protected Mode" due to something in my configeration.  What is going on with this thing?

    I think I have some of my problem resolved.  I found a direct link to Adobe X which also installed a patch.  I also chose the option to always open in unprotected mode (whatever horrors that might entail) and I can now open files on the web.  Now if I can just get my distiller to work again.  The link I found on this webiste in another question was:

     

    ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/10.x/10.0.1/en_US/AdbeRdr1001 _en_US.exe

    I had the same problem with Adobe X that when I openened pdf files I would have either a grey screen blank page or black writing grey screen.

    In  PDF manuals some of the pictures would be greyed out. Web pages were ok. Turning protection mode of didnt work. I uninstaled Adobe X & reinstalled Adobe Reader 9.4 updated to 9.4.2 & eveything is back to normal. So there might be a bug in Adobe X.

    I'm using windows 7, 32 bit.

    Hope this helps.
