Adobe Acrobat Reader DC - Need previous versions to view a website.

[philipb98845122]

Hello,

I'm reaching out for help in regards to a website I must access for work related projects. This issue is a problem for multiple people in my office.

Here is the website:https://lo.usgbc.org/index/systemRequirements

The page I have linked above, will check your web browser compatibility to view the site. A person must use internet explorer to log in....

However I get to the last step and see the following error:

Adobe Reader

18.9

LEED Online is not compatible with the latest Adobe Acrobat Reader DC version, please uninstall and install the Adobe Reader XI. Please click the link to install the Adobe Reader XI

I'm reaching out to this forum in hope that someone can provide links to previous downloads of Acrobat Reader DC. Google is taking me to the latest and great version, which is useless. I've found other websites with "downloads" but do not trust the sources. PLEASE HELP!

Feel free to reach out to me [Personal info removed by Mod]

thanks

It's going to take some hunting around but installers should still be available on the FTP site. Keep in mind that these older versions are not supported so you are using at your own risk.

ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/

Frankly, it's very rare to run into a site that doesn't support newer versions of Reader. Most of the time, it's the pdf viewer in your browser that makes things not work properly. Many of them don't use Reader at all (even if you have an older version). To get around that, right-click the link to the pdf, choose to save it to your computer, then open it from within Reader.

it's not clear what you mean by, "I’m getting an error of  . Wth is this?"

Could you please remove your email signature when posting. It's quite bulky plus has all of your contact info on it which is not a good thing in a very public forum. Thanks.

I'd like to continue with the latest version but it doesn't seem to work properly on Windows 11. Specifically, there's a  whole lot of stuff down the side  of the screen when I download a document that wasn't there before. All I want is the document and the ability to save it, but the "save" icon is greyed out while everything in the long list of other stuff that I have no use for can be accessed. What's the solution? Just a simple "save" or "save as" is now a big deal?!

#1 I share your pain.

#2 I figured this out-- there are these three horizontal lines at the top and this gives you the options for which you are looking.

#3  This is a horrible update considering it has changed us with no warning and it has taken at least an hour out of my work day for me to figure out how to make this work.

[Nicola291512249y5z]

I don't even get the horizontal lines, Christopher!  In my earlier "reply" I accidentally used elipses. Still desperately hoping for a solution because my tax documents are sent to me as pdfs!! Cheers!

[Nicola291512249y5z]

Ha! You were right (of course)!  I'm used to seeing the horizontal lines at the upper right, but of course they are at the upper LEFT in Adobe's case.  Thnk you for your patience and responsiveness. It's still annoying to have to tell Adobe EVERY SINGLE TIME I want to save a pdf file, but at least I can now save them. Maybe I'll find a hack that lets me set that function to automatically save to a specific folder. All the best to you. Nicola

[Nicola291512249y5z]

Thank you for trying, but I don't even get the ... option 😞  Have posted again, including that fact. Cheers!

I'd like to revert back to the version of Adobe before Adobe Acrobat and Reader - March 2023 updates.  I don't undestand how to work this new verision.  I cannot save my files and put them where I want them.  There is no "save as" only save.  I am not a happy consumer.
