Adobe Reader installation

Note: If you already have the Reader installed but you are still having problems, look at the Troubleshooting section below.

To download and install Adobe Reader (also called Adobe Acrobat Reader) on your computer, please follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Adobe Reader download page.  You must select your operating system.  Make your selection and click "continue".

  2. There may be additional options such as the "Adobe Yahoo Toolbar"; none of these are required for using MySeton.  When you have made your selections, click the "Download Adobe Reader" button (the button may instead say "Continue", in which case click that, then click the Download button).

  3. Download the file and run it.

  4. The installation program will present you with a series of screens and ask you several questions.  When it displays a software license agreement, click the option "I accept the terms of the license agreement". After that, just click Next or OK on each screen.

Troubleshooting:
  • If you experience problems with the download, start again from the beginning, and when you get to "Step 2 of 2" on the Adobe Reader download page, uncheck all the options, then check "Do not use Adobe Download Manager" if that option is available.

  • If you get a message saying that you do not have permissions to do the installation, or something to that effect, then you need to be logged in to your computer using an administrator account.

  • If you still cannot get the installation to work after following these instructions, contact the Seton computer department at (540) 636-9990.  You can give them the following information about your computer:  Your web browser is something using AppleWebKit 537.36.
