Where is HTMLLoader.pdfCapability looking for Adobe Reader to be installed on a mac?

I have already tried to re-install Adobe reader, have accepted end-user agreement, and now at a loss. 

HTMLLoader.pdfCapability == HTMLPDFCapability.STATUS_OK  is always coming back as false for me, so I am hoping someone can shed some light on why.

Did you find out what was happening? I'm having similar trouble with Flex/AIR on Mac which started happening after accepting an automatic upgrade to Reader 11. However I am finding that reinstalling 9.4 then letting it update to 9.5.2 will get it working again. At that point I have 9 installed which AIR uses and 11 installed which Finder uses as default for opening PDFs. AIR breaks again if I reinstall 11 and I have to repeat the process with installing 9.4 and the 9.5.2 update again. So it's not a very customer friendly solution. Hoping you might have found a better answer?

I do have the same problem. I have project that shows remote pdf files. After i upgraded from 10.1 adobe reader to 11.0 its no longer working. I have also tried upgrading my current sdk from 4.6 to 4.9 apache flex and still no luck. If you guys can share your solutions it would be much appreciated. Thanks
