Adobe Reader Os X 10.5.8 Update Adobe Reader

I have gone to Adobes website: and tried to update Adobe Reader DC while following all the instructions on the adobe.com help menu.

I go through all the steps listed on the help menu, and at the end of the installation, adobe.com says that the installation was successful.

However, I know the installation must have failed because when I go to FireFox check plugins, FF indicates that my Adobe Reader plugin is vulnerable (Status) and says under Action that I should update it now.

Adobe Reader Os X 10.5.8 Mac OS Intel 10

On Adobes website I noticed that my exact operating system 10.8.5 is not included in the drop down menu, so I chose Mac OS Intel 10.8.

Im unsure if Adobe Readers update failure is due to adobe.coms lack of an update for Mac OS Intel 10.8.5.

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder.

Help Troubleshooting Information Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder).

The reason is, Adobe does not post every update on its website, so the version there may not always be the latest.

I dont know whether the plugin checker can handle both the classic Reader and the DC version.

The plugin version looks a bit different between the two of them.

My current plugin version number (classic) is 11.0.11.18, and the version number the site is checking against is version 11.0.11.

So. that doesnt match, but I am confident that my version is the latest available from Adobe, so Im not going to panic.

Actually, there may just be a glitch in the site at the moment.

I followed the steps and then when the Adobe application popped up in my dock, I told it to update Adobe Reader.

Thanks for your helpful suggestions Deleting the pluginreg.dat file and re-initializing the plugins database did the trick.
