Help Installing Acrobat® Reader®
Throughout the GMC Saguaro Jetset web site, you will encounter links (such as "Newsletters") that
will open only if you have Acrobat Reader software installed correctly on your computer. If
you've tried downloading and installing the Acrobat Reader software before,
you can check to see if you have been successful in installing it by looking
under your "Programs" submenu on your Windows "Start" menu (lower lefthand
corner of your screen), and seeing if there's a program there called
"Acrobat Reader 5.0". Its icon is a white square, outlined in red, with a
large script "A" in it. It won't necessarily be listed alphabetically, so
scroll through all of the programs to see if it's there. There may also be
an icon as I just described located on your Desktop.
If you don't have Acrobat Reader correctly installed, when you click on one
of the links on the GMC Saguaro Jetset home page that requires Acrobat
Reader, you might get a popup window that says you need Acrobat Reader. It
might give you a link where to find this piece of free software. If not,
you can download it for free by clicking here:
Download Acrobat Reader.
Follow the instructions given on that page, and hit the "download" button.
- You'll probably get a popup window that asks what you want to do with the
file you're downloading. Choose "save to disk" and choose a folder on your
computer where you want it (remember the name and location of the download
file, so you can find it in the next step). Sometimes, it's just easier to
save this downloaded file to your Desktop.
- After the Acrobat Reader file has finished downloading, you need to
"run" that file to install the Acrobat Reader program (unless it
automatically installs, in which case you won't have to do the following
step).
- To install the Acrobat Reader software, go to the folder on your hard
drive ("C" drive) where you just saved the download file. Double click on
that file to begin installing Acrobat Reader. (If you saved the downloaded
file to your Desktop, you just need to double click on the icon for that
file on your Desktop).
After Acrobat Reader has finished installing, you should be able to open up
the GMC Saguaro Jetset web page in your browser, and click on one of the
newsletter links (or Bylaws link, or coach-for-sale links). When you do
that, your Web browser should open the Acrobat Reader software you just
installed and display the newsletter/bylaws/coach-for-sale information.
