Do you have any CDs that come with Computer magazines? Most of these have Adobe Reader on

Try running repair from Control/Panel>Add Remove Programs>Adobe Acrobat professional and then try the update.

have you uninstalled the versions you already have from control panal remove programs

you poss have ver 5 and or 6 installed as well as the latest version

uninstall all versions of the reader

then reboot

you say it wont download?

install missing plugins

**dx100uk** · 13-Dec-10, 13:56

is this following a complete new install after removing all previous versions from control panel add/remove programs?

is there any indication of 'what' plugin its trying to find?

typically additional plugins are for interface with a specific printer/scanner or a program like microsoft office, these plugins come with the install discs of the like.

I know this may be obvious, but have you downloaded the correct version of Adobe for your O/S?

Is this an Adobe install where they load a "Download Manager" into your web browser and then use that to install the software?

There is some help from Adobe here:

If you can find the FULL download it may be more reliable than the "Download Manager" method.

BTW - if what you are wanting is the latest "Acrobat Reader X" then (personally) I wouldn't bother.

Or use the free Foxit Reader http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader/ instead.

If you already have adobe reader installed , then all you have to do is open it and go in to the help section at the top of the box and press the updates, and wella , there you have it.
