Reader 8 Overwrote Acrobat Standard 6...now what? Help!

I had Acrobat 6.0 Standard on my system. Have now installed Reader 8. Now I have no access to Acrobat 6.0 Standard. Help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Quit all instance of Reader including the ones listed in Window's task manager. Then repair Acrobat to reestablish the system's registry settings and file association to Acrobat and not Reader. Make sure your Reader preferences are set to not change system settings at startup.
And this issue is why Adobe recommends against this configuration!!!

  • Acrobat Reader and Acrobat Standard v9 compatibility

  • Replaced hard drive now what help

    I =have the crt imac snow edition, I replaced hard drive all I get is a blue globe on start up, I have the software restore disc have placed it in nothing happens tried the holding down c key to start from the cd, Nothinh happens I have read numerous threads hoping to find the answer.

    First of all, are you sure the CD you inserted is truely bootable and designed for your iMac (and not specific to another different Mac)?
    Anyways to reset PRAM, while turning on your iMac, hold down Option + Cmd + P + R (I know, hard to do that 4 key combo).. and you should hear some "boing" sound, wait until you hear two "boings" then you can release and try to hold down 'C' again to boot your CD... I think that's how that works... someone can correct me or clarify if I'm not 100% correct....

  • The installation of Acrobat Standard is taking FOREVER!  What gives?

    I downloaded Acrobat Standard, and now that I've clicked on Run it is simply sitting there at 2%.  Does anyone have any idea why?

    Hi PublicArtPlan,
    This might be due to insufficient permissions on system folders or interference by some 3rd party applications.
    Please try the following:
    > Enable the hidden Admin Account on Windows 7 ( Ref :  http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-administrator-account-on-wi ndows-vista/ )
    > Disable all Non-Microsoft Startup Services. (Ref : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/disable-startup-items-services-windows.html )
    > Disable all the Antivirus softwares like CA, Norton,Mc Afee etc. temporarily from the computer.
    Reboot and try installing in the new enabled Admin user account and check.

  • I need to download Adobe Acrobat Standard X

    Hi all,
    I have recently had to re-install windows on my laptop.
    My laptop came with Adobe Acrobat Standard X pre-installed. I have the card with the serial number on it that came with the laptop.
    I now need to download Adobe Acrobat Standard X onto this laptop.
    I don't have a previous adobe account, and also don't have a download history for this product, since it came pre-installed.
    How can I download Adobe Acrobat Standard X?
    Any help greatly appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Sam.

    Dell were really useful for everything *but* this.
    I got my answer from the live chat feature from Adobe.
    I was pointed to this page where I could download the correct previous version of either Acrobat Standard X, Acrobat Pro X, Acrobat Standard XI or Acrobat Pro XI.

    Thanks to the Adobe live chat team!

  • Where do I get Adobe Acrobat Standard

    I just purchased a VLA license for Adobe Acrobat 11 Standard.  It does not come with media and it looks like I cannot download a copy from Adobe.com.
    Where do I get a copy?

    Jeff A Wright wrote:
    If they did not choose the download option but instead choose to receive physical media, which they no longer have access to, then they can contact our support team but it is very likely they will be asked to upgrade to the current version.
    Seems like that's a vital missing piece in this puzzle for other Acrobat Standard customers.
    What if they don't want to, or cannot afford to, upgrade? They just want to re-install their purchased software but cannot find the disk?
    Adobe is basically saying that Acrobat Standard X or earlier customers who purchased a physical disk and are now looking to download and re-install, have no option but to upgrade?
    Acrobat Pro X and earlier customers can download their file and install.
    Until recently, forum regulars understood that people could download the Pro installer, enter a Standard serial number and get the Standard version licensed. That's been clearly corrected - there is a separate installer for Standard - still available - but only if you purchased it via ESD (download).
    Seems unfair that Acrobat Standard X and earlier customers are left out in the cold simply because they chose to purchase a disk. Surely an installer can be made available for them to download .- same as for Acrobat Pro customers - since this question arises regularly

  • I renewed my Acrobat Standard on my mac and now it says it won't work on mac.  Can't open any pdf's.  Help!

    CAn't open any pdf files after updating my Acrobat.  What do I do now?

    I'm afraid I don't really understand what you've done. How could you renew Acrobat Standard on a Mac when it isn't available for Mac? But you say you "updated" it, suggesting it was actually installed before. Please tell us more.

    I have downloaded several books into ibooks.  Started reading one and closed it when I was done reading for the day.  Now I want to access other books and when I open ibooks it goes directly to that first book.  It does not give me the shelf to choose what book I want to read - goes directly to the first book.

  • I upgraded to Lion and now can't print PDF files and Acrobat reader doesn't work anymore. What can I do to get it working?

    I upgraded to Lion and now can't print PDF files and Acrobat reader doesn't work anymore. What can I do to get it working?

    If you upgraded and were using a version of Acrobat Reader that was legacy, that is PPC compatible, then you will have to upgrade to a version compatible with Lion as Lion no longer has Rosetta to interface with the legacy software.
    I know that Acrobat, full version, 10 works with Lion...use it myself.

  • How do I customize Adobe Acrobat Standard DC or Adobe Acrobat Pro DC to do what I'd like?  Actually this a multiple-question inquiry.

    Note, I was unable to find a "How TO", Tutorial, or FAQ relevant to the following questions.
    For instance, how do I easily append to an existing PDF with minimum clicks (which I could do with an earlier version of Acrobat Standard)?
    I'm using a 30-day trial of Adobe Acrobat Pro DC to scan documents and in certain situations, append to existing PDFs.
    I'd prefer to trial the Adobe Acrobat Standard vs. Pro DC because that's what I intend to purchase.  I'd prefer to not get accustomed to Pro if Standard is very different.
    1.  After selecting Edit > Preferences and specifying certain defaults, most take effect as suspected but some do not, like the one's I'm going to elaborate on below.  Why?
    2. Alternatively, is there a Tool or a way to create a local customized Profile and default to that Profile to avoid having to repeat the following steps?
       This should not be confused with the online Profile (or Communities Profile) whereby one states one's Name etc.
    File
    > Create
       > PDF from scanner
         > Custom scan
           > Color Mode: Black and White
           > Append to existing file
             > Browse
               > Select file
                 > Scan
    This is a cumbersome task to repeat each time I'm ready to scan.  Using an earlier version of Acrobat Standard, I'd simply double-click the PDF I wished to append to,
    Acrobat would default to the appropriate scanner, and know that I wished to append to an existing file without me having to select that option.  Presently it doesn't appear to be that easy/simple.
    Perhaps it is (or can be with guidance).  Please assist.
    3. Please find attached the following snapshots/images... CORRECTION, IF ADOBE SUPPORT CONTACTS ME ABOUT THIS, I'LL GLADLY FORWARD SCREENSHOTS.
       Meaning, there does not appear to be a way to include screenshots on Forums.
    3a See Error.  Is there a way to get a more accurate description of the error (i.e., turn on debugging etc.)?
    3b When Creating a PDF, the prompts still seen after clicking "Configure Presets" and changing Color Mode from AutoDetect to Black and White.  Why?
    3c Custom Scan Input, where I changed Color Mode from AutoDetect to Black and White and why I must also tell Acrobat to append AND to browse to a pre-defined default location?
    4. Must I be "Logged in" to use the product?  The first time launching it, I was prompted to login using the credentials used to create the account and download the product.  Now when using the product it appears to be automatically "Logged in" or online.  I would prefer to use it in an "offline mode" if there is such a thing.
    5. Once the product is purchased, what are my support options?  Can questions be answered or issues resolved with a phone call or are they limited to the Acrobat Forum(s) and/or Adobe Communities?  Even after clicking "Ready to contact us?  Start here." I'm only given the Forum option (over and over) vs. Chat vs. Email Support etc.
    If I've posted these inquiries to the wrong Forum or Discussion, if prudent, please collectively relocate them.  Regardless, please advise.  Thanks!

  • Open PDF files in IE by Acrobat Standard 8 instead of Reader

    Hi,
    I have an issue when I open PDF files in Internet Explorer.
    On my computer, Acrobat Reader 7 and Acrobat Standard 8 are installed.
    I want that Acrobat Standard 8 opens my PDF files instead of Acrobat Reader 7.
    There is 2 conditions : I can't (I mustn't) uninstall Acrobat Reader 7 !
    How can I fix it?
    Thank you for your help ;o)

    Sure, I know that :o)
    What I want to do is with Acrobat, not Reader.
    In fact, I want to open PDF files with Acrobat in Internet Explorer 6 (now, I can do it) then modify directly any (unprotected) PDF files within IE.

  • The Find function (Ctrl+F), mis-finds the desired simple text in Acrobat Standard, but works fine in Reader

    Adobe Acrobat X 10.1.13, Win 7 64bit, 
    The Find function (Ctrl+F), mis-finds the desired simple text. 
    This is not a scanned document.  When I search for some word that DOES exist in the document, Acrobat will highlight text that does not match at all and which does NOT contain the word.  If I select the actual word, copy and past the text, I get the selected text accurately, but when I paste the same selected text into the Find box to search for it, Acrobat still mis-finds. 
    HOWEVER, I can open the very same .PDF file in Acrobat Reader X and do not have the same problem - Find works correctly in Reader with the same .PDF. 
    What is going on?!  Both Acrobat standard, and Reader report that they are up to date.   Please help.

    Can you try rasterizing (converting the document to tiff/bmp) and then importing those image files (tiff/bmp) back in Acrobat.
    This would allow document to be re-OCRed and you will be able to search text in it. You can use lossless export/import settings to preserve the quality of ducment.
    For exporting the file:
    1: Go to File > Save As Other > Image > Tiff.
    2: Click on Settings button in the Save As Dialog and set the file settings as ZIP for Monochrome, Grayscale and Color.
    Now for importing the files back:
    1: Press Ctrl + K
    2: In the Preferences dialog, select Convert To PDF option in Categories.
    3: Choose tiff or bmp (as per the format used while exporting) and un-check Scan Optimization and OCR.
    4: Set Color and Grayscale to Zip and Monochrome to CCITT G4.
    5: Save the settings.
    6: Now import all the pages in Acrobat.
    7: You can use Combine Files feature to merge all the image files.
