Hi Jim, Let me explain quickly about this change. In AdobeX in the General tab the checkbox, Enable Protected Mode at startup, needs to be unchecked for Jaws to work correctly but, this checkbox is not in the General tab in AdobeXI like it is in AdobeX, it's in the Security Enhanced tab. in AdobeXI
To open preferences do the following: 1. Find your AdobeXI shortcut on the desktop or in the start menu & press enter to open the Adobe main window. 2. You can get to preferences 2 ways from here. A. While in the Adobe main window, press control + K to open preferences. B. Or, press Alt + E, for the edit menu, arrow up to preferences & press enter. 3. In preferences, arrow up or down until you find the Security Enhanced tab & tab 1 time or, until you find the, Enable Protected Mode at startup checkbox & uncheck this box with the spacebar. 4. Tab to okay & press enter or spacebar to save your changes & close. Hope this helps. Take care.

Hi All, I have had a problem reading PDF files ever since I updated to Adobe XI. Well, I went into preferences & made the changes below & finally, Adobe is working again! Hot damn! For those who have had the same problem you can give these setting changes a try to see if they help. On the Security Enhanced tab, I unchecked the options below. Enable Protected Mode at startup, I unchecked this box. Enable Enhanced Security, I unchecked this box. Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool.
