9.1.2 Update Fails in Acrobat Pro 9

I am running a standalone version of Acrobat Pro 9 on an iMac running Mac OS X 10.5.8. I am trying to update Acrobat Pro 9 from 9.1.1 to 9.1.2 without success. I have had problems with EVERY SINGLE update from 9.0.0 whether from help>check for update OR from a direct download from Adobe.
When attempting to install 9.1.2 I receive the following message:
The patch has failed because the application has been modified since it was originally installed (for example, plug-ins may have been disabled). Please go to the Adobe support website for more information regarding how to re-enable disabled components prior to installing the patch.  Or, you can uninstall and reinstall the application, and then reinstall the patch.
The console log has the following messages:
04/09/2010 12:04:34 PM defaults[17997]
The domain/default pair of (/Volumes/AcroProUpd912_all/Acrobat 9 Pro Patch.app/Contents/Resources/RegExList, 1) does not exist

04/09/2010 12:04:47 PM Acrobat 9 Pro Patch[17975] Install script failed with exit status: 1
I decided to do a complete uninstall and reinstall of a more up-to-date version of Acrobat Pro 9 from the Adobe site, but the uninstaller claims Adobe Acrobat Pro.app is an invalid file.
I've read countless messages online with similar stories and I find it incredible that there are so few solutions to all of these problems.
Contrary to my nature, I am hopeful someone can help.
Thanks.
P.S. - it's hard not to be sympathetic to Apple's latest contretemps with Adobe Flash...

graffiti, KamakuraKid, phillip -
thanks for all the tips - unfortunately none of the suggestions worked.
i first deleted the AUMProduct.aup file - the update failed.
i hoped a new admin account would do the trick, but was surprised to again encounter the "The patch has failed..." error.
as far as the python errors in console, i don't have these.
as a last resort i ran the uninstaller program, but it does not think Adobe Acrobat Pro.app is a valid program file!
i'd drag it to the waste basket, but am sure some piece left hanging somewhere would come back to haunt me.
not sure what to do now...

  • I tried to update my Adobe Acrobat Pro ver 10.

    I tried to update my Adobe Acrobat Pro ver 10.
    The update downloaded then stopped for administrator permission. (Right click on file did not show 'run as administrator')
    In addition, my Adobe Pro was wiped out or disabled!
    (OS=Win7 Pro)
    'Any ideas how I can get my Adobe Acrobat v10 back & updated?
    Many Thanks

    Good Morning again,
    I am AMAZED – I thought I was the only one that get up real early - I came into the office around 06:00 EST  (Pennsylvania, USA).  When I wrote my last email to you, I assumed there is no way you will  get a chance to respond for quite a few hours – especially if you on the West Coast!  
    Since I use this wonderful program every day in my work, I had a brainstorm!  I retrieved the original disc:
    ·         I uninstalled Acrobat X Pro
    ·         I took the original disc and reinstalled the program.
    o   The program installed fine and everything was going great until I searched for updates
    ·         I told the system to run the update and it came back with "Update failed An error occurred.  Please check updates again later Error: 1602”
    I tried the update 2 times and then saw your reply telling me NOT to uninstall.   L  Honest, I'm very appreciative any guidance you might be able to give – I didn't mean it all to go against your guidance  as just I never dreamed you would be that quick to respond.
    Now the program is re-installed (without updates) is you have any ideas what I might do to add the patches to my newly installed (old) program?
    ·         I tried to install the latest update as the program requested.
    ·         Should I start installing each of the sequential updates one at a time?
    BTW – you are absolutely correct – I did try to include a screenshot (.jpg).  I sent my last request 2 ways:
    ·         #1 as a reply to the email you sent and
    ·         #2 I also went on to the website and replied from there with the same information. 
    I'm going to try to do JUST the reply via email this time.  Please let me know if you did receive this.
    Thanks again for your help & guidance,
    Barry

  • Internal Error 2753 Updater.api  Adobe Acrobat Pro 9

    I'm getting an error while trying to install Acrobat Pro 9 saying:
    "Internal Error 2753 Updater.api"
    I don't have any other version of Acrobat installed in XP Pro sp2.
    I have seen suggestions on this for version 8 to use the installer instead.
    I haven't found the download link to the msi file for Acrobat Pro 9.
    It really would be nice if they fixed the problem since it was happening in 8 also.
    Thank you,
    Docfxit

    This is for a different version of Acrobat, but it might help:

  • Update to Adobe Acrobat Pro 10.1.10 won't allow stamps to be published

    Since updating to Acrobat Pro 10.1.10, the dynamic stamps for approval and review during a review are no longer retained after publishing comments. The comments are retained but the stamps are not. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? It just started with the update yesterday. If I uninstall the update and return to the Acrobat Pro version 10.0.0, the stamps work. It has got to be an issue with this particular update.

    We are also having this issue.  found another link describing the problem here:  Dynamic Stamps won't publish after Acrobat ProX update to 10.1.10 (Review & approve)
    supposedly (though not confirmed)  11.0.7 also has this issue.

  • Enter Machine Password DNS Update Failed on Mac Pro 10.6.6

    Windows 2008 R2 Active Directory with several PCs and 3 MACs, all three at 10.6.6.
    Only one, the Mac Pro, is slow to access network resources, gets Enter Machine Password: DNS Update Failed on Console, and is much slower to open webpages than the other 2 MACs; they work fine. I know that AD is configured right since I have no network errors on them.
    Can bind and unbind as expected, can access Mac from AD Server as well as other PC/Macs, so this issue is not like most all other posts in that everything works except slow network (opening a network share gets the spinning wait cursor).
    Any Ideas?
    TIA

    On the offending Mac open System Preferences->Network pane and highlight the port that you are connecting to the domain. Then in the right side of the pane click on the word "Advanced". In that drop-down select the DNS tab and make sure it has the same DNS that the domain uses. You can use thew + button to add the correct DNS servers. Also while in the Network pane, Advanced, select the WINS tab and fill it the appropriate settings for the Windows Domain.
    Also on the offending Mac open System Preferences->Date & Time and make sure the Map Location is correct and also you are using the same Time server that the Domain uses (you can type in the Time Server address in the Time Server field.
    Lastly are you using DHCP or Static in your Domain?

  • WIN 7.0.1 Update Fails on XP Pro

    The Photoshop 7.0.1 update fails when I try to run it on Windows XP Pro. I have reproduced this error two times, once on a fresh installation of Photoshop 7. I receive a ComponentMoveData Error: Media Name: data Component: FileGroup: File: ...\temp\wzseo.tmp\data1.hdr Error Number: -113. This failure causes Photoshop to crash on startup.

    I've downloaded the update and i have gotten the error message, that it can not find the adobe photoshop directory. I've tried various ways of getting around the path check.
    NOTE: I do not get errors that are reported on these forums about archive extraction.
    1. Reinstalling photoshop
    2. Uninstall and Reinstall photoshop
    3. Cut/Paste installer into photoshop directory and install
    4. I've renamed c:\program files\adobe\photoshop 7.0\ to c:\program files\adobe\adobe photshop 7.0\ and c:\program files\adobe photoshop 7.0\
    5. Read Forums for support
    I'm attempting an installation again. I'm going to be reinstalling soon. So i'll have another chance to test it out, if not, its sad. I was intrested in a kais power tools 3.0 fix for photoshop 7.0, please help. Thanks in advance.

  • How do i update my adobe acrobat pro?

    I have a very old version from 2008 that I installed using the disks.  It doesn't work that well with windows 8.  Can someone help?

    Hi karimw65988367,
    We would be happy to help you.
    Could you please let me know what version of Acrobat are using on Windows 8.
    As you specified that it is a very old version, so it might not be supported on Windows 8 platform thus leading to problems.
    You can choose to use the latest Acrobat version (Acrobat DC) which is fully compatible with your OS and offers a completely reimagined solution with its remarkable features and functions.
    You can download a 30-day trial version of Acrobat DC from the following link:
    Download Adobe Acrobat free trial | Acrobat Pro DC
    So, give it a try and let me know how it goes.
    I hope you will like it.
    Regards,
    Anubha

  • Distiller 9 issue after a new update to Adobe Acrobat Pro (version 9.3)

    After installing the update, I was asked to reboot my HP Pavilion dv9617nr Notebook Computer (Windows Vista Home Edition). After the reboot, I was given an error message which explained that the ICC Color profiles in Adobe Distiller 9 could not be found and that I should reinstall my Adobe Acrobat 9 software. My question is: Yes I probably should reinstall my software but this will only be a temporary solution that will become a redundant problem when I again attempt the same update that caused the probllem initially. How can I simply back out the update? What if anything has been done to replace the update that caused the problem. Has there been any posts to this or other forums about this update problem? Please help me resolve this issue.

    Adobe Tech support was most helpful on this.  First download the updated
    Distiller ICC profile files at:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4075&fileID= 3790
    Unzip the file and copy only the *.icc files (without regard to the subfolders that they are in - in other words, take the files out of each of the subfolders) to the followng folder in Windows 7:
    c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\color
    These new files will probably overwrite some old ones.
    This solved the problem for me.
    This is actually the best solution though I found that instead of copying all the .icc files to the windows\sys...  folder, all you need to do is copy the 3 Video files from the RGB folder (VideoHD.icc, VideoNTSC.icc, and VideoPAL.icc).  Once you add these three files to  c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\color  you will be good to go.
    It seems that this was an error on the part of Adobe in that there is no reason to include Video files for printing.  Nevertheless, the distiller will look for these and return the ICC profile error message if those files are not present.

  • Updater fails for Acrobat 9.1.3

    For the past week, I have been getting a message when Acrobat 9.1.2 tries to upgrade to 9.1.3 - The installation process has encountered a problem. Please choose from the following options:  run again, stop and continue later, cancel. Nothing seems to work to get it to install, and nothing clears the error. Is there a proper sequence of events to get this taken care of so that the updater can run through successfully? Thanks.

    I was also having this issue.  I ended up removing Reader (and other Adobe stuff) via "Windows Install Clean Up" (download from microsoft.com)  I restarted the computer, downloaded Reader and then updated.  It worked!
    I did not have to turn off my Anti-virus program and I was logged in as the main user.
    Hope this helps!

  • IPhone/Ipad software update fail on MacBook Pro

    Apologies in advance that this will be a bit convoluted. I Try to keep it concise.
    I am trying to update my iPhone/iPad to latest software version 4.3.3. This works fine on my MacBook Air, but not on my MacBook Pro (First i& version, early 2010).
    I phoned Mac support and been through all their check lists (Transfer purchases, backup, sync, turn off firewall, etc.). I have used disk repair, cocktail and Clean-my-Mac. I have removed everything form the startup menu in the admin account (which I am using) and have disabled/removed all security software.
    I am still getting the following error message, after itunes has gone through extracting the software and syncing the device:
    "The iPhone "xxx" cannot be updated at this time because the iPhone software server could not be contacted or is temporaily unavailable." (see shot below).
    As I am using the same wireless router/network connection for the MacBook Air (which as I said updates fine), it is not likely to caused by router settings, but rather something on the MacBook Pro. As I uses it as my main machine and where i keep my Itunes library, I would like to be able to perform the software updates for the iDevices from there.
    Has anyone had the same problem, and possibly a solution. Thanks in advance.
    Cheers,

    This was first posted on MacBook Pro forum, but it was suggested the me to repost it in both the iphone and ipad forum; apologies if this leads to duplication

    Thanks Nick,
    I will try this now.
    Any idea though what would the MacBook Pro prevent the auto update, when the MacBook Air has no issues whatsoever. I want to avoid reinstalling the OS, maybe a re-install of iTunes might help.
    Any suggestions welcome.
    Cheers,

  • Is there an update to make Acrobat Pro 6.0 compatible with Windows 7?

    I have been using Adobe Acrobat Professional 6.0 on a Windows XP OS, but as of 4/8/2014 XP is no longer supported. So, I did Easy Transfer from XP to a computer using Windows 7. When I installed my Adobe Acrobat Professional 6.0 software on the Windows 7 computer, I received a message that it was not compatible with Windows 7. Is there an update or work around that will allow me to use the 6.0 version with my Windows 7 computer?  This is software I've used daily for years and need it, but can't afford to buy new version right now. Any help would be appreciated.

    I am suggesting you keep the XP computer permanently disconnected, and have your new computer connected to the internet. You can move files between them with a memory stick.
    (Worth considering that Windows is not the only thing with security issues which need fixing. By continuing to run an old Acrobat you have been deprived of security patches for many years. Only Acrobat X and XI are in the "currently supported" category. You should consider this carefully for all your apps, the bad guys could attack ANYTHING.)

  • CS6 update deactivated my Acrobat Pro

    I recently ran the Adobe Updater to provide updates to the CS6 suite. After completing Acrobat would not start (no issues with the other programs in the suite).
    I overcame the problem by deactivating and reactivating the suite of product.  Perhaps this will help others with the same issue.  I'll think twice about running Updater next time.

    First thing to try: check the date and time on your computer, especially the year. Let us know if that's correct.
