Adobe Acrobat Pro Version 8, "twilight Zone"
Feb 6, 2009
Of all the programs I use in Vista, Adobe Acrobat Pro is the one that performs the worst. Frequently while editing a file the application window goes into the "twilight zone" with the entire appliction window becoming fuzzy and unresponsive sometimes for as long as 30 seconds. It does not completely hang, and eventually responds. This happens on at least 3 different machines. All have Quad Cores and with 4GB of memory and are otherwise very responsive machines. Is there an explantion for why Acrobat does this in Vista?

I am currently having problems resizing pdf files when viewing them in acrobat reader 8.0. Basically, the window will resize, but the content that I have opened will not. I am using windows vista ultimate x64.I have installed the reader normally, and I have also tried installing it under xp service pack 2 compatibility as an administrator. Additionally, I have tried running the reader in normal compatibility mode and xp sp2 compatibility as an administrator. I have also tried the foxit reader 2.0, which resizes the content, but seems to require a lot of cpu to do so and doesn't display the content as clearly as adobe's reader.Any workarounds, or other pdf reader recommendations?

I can not get the pdf print driver to work in Adobe Acrobat. Adobe says it will work with ms hotfix kb930627 applied and Adobe update 8.1 applied. I have downloaded the adobe update and installed. When I download the ms hotfix kb930627 it says the update does not apply to your system. I am running vista home premium service pack 1 64 bit os.

I have uninstalled everything related to Adobe CS4 but still, there are two folders that cannot be deleted. One from C:ProgramDataAdobe (where ProgramData is hidden) and on C:Program FilesCommon FilesAdobe. The problem is, at startup, when I right-click on any file, folder or the like, Windows Installer keeps on opening to install Adobe Acrobat 9. I still have the Adobe Drive CS4 on the context menu even it is already uninstalled together with Adobe AIR. I tried everything I saw on this forum. But still, NONE worked. It (the files) won't allow me to change the permission settings given that I am the ONLY user.

Vista shows that those who run Microsoft are stuck in the Windows 9x mentality of endless upgrade cycles. They failed to grasp that during the adaption of XP, and as a result of the actually quite good quality of XP, computers became a part of everyday personal and business life. The arbitrary changes to the Mac platform have come home to roost: Adobe is not working on a 64 bit version of Photoshop for the Mac OS because of uncertainty about the platform. And Photoshop, if you are a moron about the realities of color management like most Mac users-is the only dubious excuse for the Mac platform to exist.
When Vista came out most people were satisfied with their XP software, boxes and peripherals. Users do not switch stable staples without good reason. Unless they are Mac users. There is no rational, in the sense that Economists define rational, reason for the vast majority of the XP installed base to switch to Vista. There are overarching reasons not to switch to Vista..........

Latest Version of Adobe Flash Player Released
Version: 10.1.53.64
Date Posted: June 10th 2010 Flash Player is still not supported for playback in a 64-bit browser yet. Remember to uncheck the Google Toolbar option if you do not want it installed to. See release notes. Adobe Flash Player Download Page
If you have problems installing the Adobe Flash Player, then you might use the uninstaller program to remove the old Adobe Flash Player version and try installing the new version again afterwards. How to uninstall the Adobe Flash Player plug-in and ActiveX control
If you use Firefox, then it uses a separate plug-in than Internet Explorer. You will need to select your OS, click Continue, and select "other browsers" to install the separate plug-in for Firefox from this link instead. You should check your Adobe Flash settings and click on the Delete all sites button at this link every so often.

I changed computers that now has Vista and can't figure out how to get Adobe Reader to work. I think I downloaded the free version correctly but I can't get it to work. Must I buy it again or is it possible to retreive it somehow?

I ask because when I go into Programs and Features, neither of these are there. I do have an Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX and an Adobe AIR (whatever that is). I also now have an Adobe Download Manager which came when I downloaded the subject two programs. NOTE: The Flash Player shows as a plugin on Firefox
ALSO: The site told me to uninstall the older versions of these two programs prior to installing the new, but I don't have an older version of either. This came about because I was having a problem with a game that worked until after I installed the latest NVIDIA driver. The game manufacturer told me to install both of these as a measure to correct the issue. It didn't correct it BTW. Other games still work fine.

If I get the OEM version, I know that a restriction in the license means it cannot be transferred to another computer. I need to get clarification on the following:
1) What happens if my computer crashes and I am told I have to reformat the hard drive and re-install Windows? Am I forced to buy a new license?
2) What if I want to have a backup hard drive, or upgrade my existing hard drive to a bigger one? If it's the same computer and only the hard drive is upgraded or a second one added, does that mandate a new license?

When online in IE, bottom toolbar says Internet protected mode OFF, when I double click on that, it opens internet properties, where there is already a ck mark in the box that says ENABLE PROTECTION MODE (REQUIRES A RESTART OF IE), but I restart IE, still unprotected message. OK, then try rebooting pc...darn, still unprotected. Ok, uncheck the box, click apply, then ok, restart pc, then go into internet properties and ck the box all over again...and on and on and on... So, how exactly is this SUPPOSED to work ?

I get a setup popup sometimes when i right click on a folder or file. The popup says "Installing Acrobat setup files" with a small computer icon to the left and a cancel button down bottom. Also there is a blue status bar in the middle of the popup. Usually i just cancel the popup, but if i let it run the popup starts to install some kind of acrobat files. When done it asks to reboot.

I upgraded my pc and bought Windows Vista ultimate 64bit, and i would like to install Windows vista Business 64bit. How can i do it? I took ultimate because it was the only version i could find (in my area anyway) that had a 64bit version in the box. But i don't want the media center, the high definition, and all the multimedia stuff. All of these ultimate "extras" are of no use whatsover to me. So my question is basically can i install the Business version with my ultimate key ? (is it "downwards" compatible in a way ?). I don't understand why ultimate is the only one with 64bit in the box. It doesn't make sense to me. It would have been much more logical for the Business version to be the one with 64bit in the box.

I am running Vista Home Premium 64 and there is no 64 bit version of Zone Alarm so I am depending upon the Windows Firewall instead. It may be a safer product than Zone Alarm. I have no way to know. But I miss Zone Alarm because I could always see when something was initially trying to send data out of my computer. With Zone Alarm during or directly after installing an app I would get a pop up message from ZA asking me if I wanted to let a specific app go out through the fire wall. Maybe I have something set up wrong with the Windows Firewall but I don't recollect that I have seen this with the WF. When I go to the WF window it says that it is turned on.
Plus I am confused how to understand the Exceptions list. I don't see all the applications that I have installed on my computer that I would normally see in ZA. In fact I don't see most of the apps, including some that I know go out to do autochecking for updates. Plus when I look in the exceptions list I see that Skype is unchecked but Skype does work. So what does the check mean?

after having the nasty surprise that my (supposedly) compatible security software isn't compatible with Vista, I've beena dvised here to download something like AVG free anti virus. can do that, but AVG doesn't have a firewall. Not totally sure I want to just rely on the windows firewall, so is Zone Alarm truly compatible (as they claim)?

I did ask this question before, but was not provided with an clear reply. I had Zone Alarm Pro on my pc with Windows XP Home and it worked fine. I can not install it on my new pc despite asking for help from zone labs. They sent me two different exe files supposedly to work with Vista, but neither can be installed Does anyone else have this problem and is there a fix for it. After several e mail exchanges with the Zonelab tech, I am still no further. I even tried the trial version ZoneAlarm security suite without success. Could it have something to do with the Norton 360 security suit? I would not like to delete Norton with out knowing if that is for sure the problem.

My laptopīs internet explorer and firefox canīt connect to the internet due to firewall issues. Clicking on "Diagnose connection problems" I received the following message: "The following policy settings on this computer might be blocking the connection: Policy Provider: - Filter Name: VSWFP_LAYER_ALE_AUTH_CONNECT_V4" I uptaded my Windows vista recently, and found out that it has problems with Zone alarm. The real problem is that I removed and deleted zone alarm a long time ago but it is still in the windows security settings, and I cannot remove it.

I'm experiencing a problem that I cannot solve even though some people have proposed solutions to it.
When I try to copy files from my NAS (Synology DS207+) to my hard drive over the network, this is what I have to answer to first:
I've tried all the suggested solutions by changing the intranet settings in internet options, done some registry hacks, but I can't get rid of this dialogue.
I'm running Vista Ultimate SP1 X64 and I'm beginning to believe that the issue has come after SP1.

Until recentlyI've been a Win98SE man and had Zone Alarm Free firewall installed. Never a problem in nearly 10 years. Although fairly comp literate I've never really "got to grips" with the workings of FWs. Recently bought a new computer and the OS is Windows Vista Home Premium---64 bit. If I choose to install Zone Alarm Free, (which I have currently), should I turn off the integrated Vista FW?
Is there a definitive answer? Further, ZA Free is currently installed and operational from "startup". I often find, when I investigate, that the Vista FW has turned itself "Off". Does this make sense? Lastly, regardless of which FW is on, my computer "fails" the "Shields Up!" "Ping Test". What can I do, if anything, to rectify this?

I purchased a new PC in early 2007 that came with XP. A month or so later I received the Vista upgrade CD which I have never installed. I intend to buy Windows 7 when it becomes available and wish to minimize my system upgrade problems as much as possible. Based on my understanding I would have to do a complete harddrive erase to install Win 7 and then reinstall all my applications. If possible and practical I'd like to upgrade XP to Vista and then Vista to Windows 7. My question am I likely to have problems going from a current up to date version of XP to a 2+ year old version of Vista which would require many updates to bring up to the current level?.

Been having issues with my lap top recently so on the advice of a bod on here I decided to get a better fire wall than Zone Alarm free. I am now using the free trial version of Zone Alarm Security Suite and will buy it if it is any good. I ran a virus and spyware scan and the virus scan came back with nothing and the spyware had 3 items. I then ran my free version of adaware and this found 74 items!! Is it best to keep using both these products together, or should I just find something better than ZA? At a loss as to what is the best thing to use. Running Vista 32 bit.

Purchased a notebook yesterday that has Vista Home Premium pre-installed
1. Was not able get the time zone value to stick during setup, Had to reset after set up.
2. I successfully connected to the internet via dial-up, but I then changed the settings to not automatically dial. Now I cannot find the equivalent of "Network and dial-up connections". I want to create a shortcut on the desktop or a toolbar for each connection. How does one do this?
3. I have 2 desktop.ini icons on the desktop. Likely, because I told Vista to not hide any files.
4. How does find the equivalent of Windows Explorer?
5. Ditto for My Documents and My Computer.
