[OS X TeX] Displaying in Adobe Reader vs. Preview

Hello, again.

I am sorry that I may not have been clear.  I meant to say that in Preview View > Two Pages, odd-numbered pages are correctly displayed on the right (recto), and even on the left (verso).  However, in Adobe Reader XI View > Page Display > Two Page View, odd-numbered pages are incorrectly displayed on the left, and verso on the right.

What am I doing wrongly?  How do I ensure that recto pages are displayed on the right, and verso on the left in Adobe Reader, just as they are in Preview?

Thanks in advance again.

---John.
