Acrobat 7.0 Pro and VISTA

Just FYI,
Acrobat 7.0 Pro does not work with Vista. It will continually ask for re-activation even though it is activated the first (and subsequent) times.
This is not a complaint. Acro 7.0 preceded (and was never intended for) Vista. Just thought it would be helpful to have this fact clear (to avoid calling customer support and being told on the SECOND call that this is the case).
Will definitely upgrade to Acro 8 or 9. Acrobat is an invaluable tool.

You may get a few responses. A few have apparently been successful with AA7 and VISTA, but I am not sure of the stability of such installations. You might want to provide a few more details of what you have run into, installation process, and such, so that they might answer. I think your data may be adequate, but if you have more it would help. The upgrade is likely a good idea in any case.

Hi
I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
What can I do?
thank you a lot.

There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
- Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
- Adobe Reader (free)
Which do you have? And are you a programmer?

Using an Osprey 100 card with Acrobat Connect Pro and Vista

Intrigued by a comment I saw on another forum, I tried setting each of the EXE files associated with an Osprey 100 card install in Vista to run in compatability mode for XP SP2, and my Osprey card analog inputs started working (at LAST!!) with Acrobat Connect Pro in Vista. This lets me attach VCRs/DVDs or any device with analog outputs to Acrobat Connect Pro without having to buy a new generation of Osprey or other Vista compatible analog capture cards.
Perhaps this will help someone.

I believe I figured it was somewhere between Flash 5 and Flash 6. I say this because while the resulting presentations could be opened in QuickTime (which only uses Flash 5) a better result would be achieved by viewing in the browser. Either that, or QuickTime's Flash 5 support isn't complete.

MacBook Pro and Vista

Hi all,
Our company develops software for Windows Management in the Enterprise space, and I spend most of my time demoing the software in a VMware environment.
A while ago, someone recommended that I should look at buying a high spec MacBook Pro, and installing Windows Vista and VMware Workstation on it, as the performance will surpass the highest spec PC out there.
I currently run a Dual Core 2.33GHz Dell Precision M90, with 4Gb of RAM and a 512Mb dedicated graphics card.
Due to the Intel chipset, the hardware only sees 3Gb of the 4Gb DDR II memory available.
I spend most of my time within VMware workstation hooked up to a high spec projector (hence the decent graphics card)
Is it true?
Would a MacBook Pro be better?
Specifically, I wouldn't want to run dual boot in a Boot Camp Scenario, as the Mac OS wouldn't be required (I have no apps for this anyway)
Also, I probably wouldn't be interested in VMware Fusion at this stage, as I understand it is not as stable yet as VMware Workstation for the PC.
... it would certainly be funny to demo our Windows Management software on an Apple!!!
Your comments and advice would be much appreciated!

techydude,
"Exclusivist?" No, not at all. And, I do not disagree about the potential for conversion, either.
However, I try to avoid whatever "evangelical" tendencies I might have. Sure, if someone comes here inquiring about OS X, and it seems apparent that they are looking for relief from Windows, I will wax eloquently (well, I'll wax) all day about the advantages of OS X.
I have a rather pragmatic approach, but I also have an eye for "elegance." In either mode, it doesn't make sense to me to purchase an Apple computer, only to run Windows exclusively. Thinking pragmatically, it is a no-brainer that the purchase of a PC with Windows already bundled makes more sense than a Mac which would require the additional cost of a full license for Windows (just for starters). Since neither option would present a savings or price premium, provided one is comparing similarly-configured machines, one must look at the inherent value to the end user represented by each option. If the end user has no intention of running OS X, the Mac immediately loses every bit of its advantage over a PC, value-wise.
And (as I mentioned before), purchasing a Mac just to run Windows is simply not "elegant." In the same vein, I see no reason for someone to own and drive an SUV just because they want to or can. In my book, there's no legitimate reason to burn more fuel than necessary unless one is towing a large trailer (camper, boat, etc.), and the entire concept represented by "Hummers" is abhorrent to me.
If this makes me "Exclusivist," then so be it.

Acrobat 6.0 Pro and reader 9.1

I have both the free Reader 9.1 and Acrobat 6.0 Pro installed on my computer. Is this going to create problems for me, such as being able to read or create files? I attempted an update earlier today and my computer locked up, so I'm figuring I may have a conflict having both programs on the computer. I am running XP. Thanks in advance for any assistance. Sue

Adobe neither supports nor recommends that combination. Most known problems don't relate to creating pdfs, but usually with viewing pdf files. However, if you remove Reader 9.1 you will break Acrobat 6. I'd recommend you uninstall both and re-install 6 (unless you want to upgrade to version 9). Be aware the Acrobat 9 is the last version of Acrobat you can purchase as an upgrade from Acrobat 6. When the next version comes out you'll have to pay full fare.

X-Fi Elite PRO and Vista: dropouts and no sound. Only Changing mode in Audio-Console helps

Hi... Please help me. I have an X-Fi Elite Pro and I am experiencing a very strange problem in Vista 32. Before using Vista, I had no problems at all in XP. Sometimes when I listen to the music (Winamp) and then after listening the music start watching movie, the sound dissappears. I mean the EQ of Winamp freezes and there is no sound at all
!!! Only if I switch audio-console (in Configuration menu) to Games mode (or an other one) and back, the sound comes back... Sometimes it happens, sometimes not. It is very strange. Please, do you know a solution for that?!

In no way a 300W Power Supply has enough power for all your stuff.
2 HDD's, a power-hungry Pentium, a xfi card, dvd burner and many other stuff ...
Problems like this can happen then if your power supply has not enough power to handle all this stuff.
Get a better powersupply that can handle your stuff and I am sure it will work again. In a few cases its also possible that YOU damage your hardware on this way, if it can not get enough stable power, it might mess up your hardware. I also already blowed up a harddisk one day because I have connected too much stuff to one cable. I had 3 HDD's, Mainboard, Lights, Fans and DVD connected to one single cable. All devices there did not get enough power, harddisks made crazy sounds (on/off/on/off very fast) and after that one of my HDDs was bad.
But no ... you can't blame anyone for this. In 99% a bad power supply should not damagae your hardware, it will just make sure it does not work anymore. Since you installed that hardware, YOU are responsible for this. If a hardware-dealer would have to install this card for you, it would be his fault, but now its yours.
BTW: Why do you expect that a 300W suppy is enough!? I mean really ... think about it! See what todays PS can do, take a look how much your pentium already needs ... There are at least 00W gone for your CPU, another 00 for your Videocard and just 00 left for ALLLL the other devices like your harddisks (20-30W each one), DVD, mainboard, soundcard ... In no way this will be enough. You must have missed the last 5 years ...
BTW: I don't think that the software audio console would not work when not having connected the y-power cable. I forget that cable too one time. My console did still work, just in games I got some strange problems a lot of times (no more sound for -2 minutes, crackling and other poroblems) which got solved after I plugged in the power-cable to soundcard.Message Edited by Homey-GER on 0-7-200705:42 AM

Elite Pro and vista, creative console resets after ever reb

So, I've given up trying to search for the answer and I have no clue how to go about fixing this problem.
If I boot into visata 32 Ultimate, and go and setup my audio console the way I like it then reboot, it will reset itself to defaults when I boot back into windows.
basically its not saving my configuration. Why does this happen and how can I fix this? It doesn't sound the same as the Digital output resetting itself. I have the latest drivers installed on a clean slate...why does this still happen?
its friggen annoying!

yep , i see they are supported, the same is mentioned on the drivers download page,
it states that DTS has been re enabled on devices that supported it on XP when they were originally released.
so i have the elite pro, wich supported dd and dts, and still i get no sound form any dvd in dts or even sound from my PS3 input via optical to the external I/0 of the elite pro.
and i have been told that i would need to buy the dts pack.
why ? when i already paid ?250 for the card that supported it from the moment i bought it ?
dts input support was one of the reasons i bought this card in the first place.
i might as well sell this and use my onboard optical output and buy an amplifier that supports dts, at least then ill know that there are no drivers/support problems
?creative you might make the best sound cards out there but that alone only gets you half way there. us customers we need support and value for our money?
not u trying to rip us off

Acrobat 9.0 Pro and Office 2008 updates download but won't install

I hope I'm not alone experiencing the following difficulties installing third party patches and updates and that someone who reads this may recognize the problem…and its solution. I've run Adobe Updater (6?) for CS4 Design Standard which includes Acrobat 9.0 Professional, and subsequently, Microsoft Autoupdate for Office 2008 v12.0.1, but find that neither will install the downloaded updates which disappear immediately after an (unsuccessful) installation attempt.
Disk space is not a problem (500GB HD) nor is memory (4GB RAM); I'm using OS 10.6.4 (10F569) which is the most current set of OS updates I can locate. I had successfully been running CS4 with Adobe's most recent patches (e.g. P'Shop 11.0.2 and Acrobat 9.3.3) until the 9.3.4 patch failed to install with the message that +"Safari and Acrobat apps must be closed in order to proceed"+—they were closed as was everything else that wasn't essential according to a check of the Acitivity Window. A grab of the alert panel reads:
+"AcroProUPd934_all Update Failed: 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."+
Of course, uninstalling CS4 and reinstalling the entire suite of apps reverts all of them to their original versions, now none of them will accept an update…whether manually downloaded and fed to it or by using Adobe's most recent AutoUpdater. The most consistent message is an alert panel stating that in order to continue, Safari and Acrobat applications must be closed—which they are.
Not surprisingly, after nearly 8 hours on a cell phone with Adobe Tech Support in Delhi, 5 different techs and a manager, the case remains open a week later; it seems +"no one has ever seen or heard of this problem before"+ and an overly apologetic manager could only repeat +"it's [Adobe] policy to remove all copies of CS4 from existence once CS5 is introduced."+ While we waited for 500MB of updates to download more than once, a helpful tech suggested I'd have more luck finding a used copy of CS4 on the net than getting a link to another download from Adobe.
With regard to Microsoft Office 2008, I'd been running v12.0.1 and the MS Autoupdate app has tried to download and install v12.1.0 (and those which follow) but when installation is attempted, an alert panel reads:
+"There is a problem with the Office database. Office might be unable to access the data base or the database file might be damaged. Without the database, you might be unable to use the Address Book, Scrapbook, and other features that store your personal information. To rebuild the database, Open Microsoft Office 2008/Office, and then open the Microsoft Database Utility. For more information, open the Database Utility application, and on the Help menu, click Database Utility Help."+
All attempts to rebuild the database fail, noting…
+ERROR: Failed to open database [Head]+
+ERROR: Corruption opening database [16003:""]+
======================
+Scan Ended+
====================
Two hours on the phone with a relentlessly pleasant Nova Scotian tech for Microsoft revealed little but the suggestion that +"the app doesn't seem to be able to recognize your hard drive. I've never seen this problem before."+
With luck, perhaps someone reading this far recognizes the issue and can offer a solution? It will be gratefully received! Thanks,
David

Disk space is not a problem (500GB HD)
How much space is available out of the 500GB?
Have you tried any of the following:
Disconnect all peripherals from your computer. Boot from your install disc & run _*Repair Disk*_ from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
Select your language.
Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
Select *Disk Utility.*
Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click *First Aid.*
Click _*Repair Disk.*_
Restart your computer when done.
Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751 and try the installations again.

Acrobat 9.0 Pro and Design Premium - Remote Load

I have a copy of Design Premium loaded through Indiana University's agreement with Adobe. It does not include the Acrobat 9.0 Pro promised in the Design Premium description. A large part of how I use the suite depends on me having Acrobat. Can I arrange for a download seeing as I have no box?

You'll need to talk to whomever supplied the software. CS5 does include Acrobat Pro, but only as a separate installer with its own serial number.

Cool stuff to do between Macbook Pro and Vista?

Anybody know any cool things you can do between MBP and Vista?
i can already screen share with YuuGuu and access my PC's C Drive, anything else?

You should be able to do anything you can do if you were running Vista on any other PC.

Acrobat XI PRO and Vista

Is there a patch to allow Acrobat XI Pro to operate with Windows Vista? I dowloaded the trial version to check compatability (because it is not listed as an OS on specs.) and the program frequently stops working. I am redacting very sensitive files and do not want to work on the cloud.

No, the Tech Specs (read Minimum System Requirements) do not include Windows Vista. While they may add newer OS requirements in later updates, historically I have never seen them include older OS versions after shipping a product with an update.

Acrobat 7.0 Pro on Vista freezes when PDF from Multiple

I try to create a PDF from multiple files and Acrobat just sits there looking stupid. I've checked for updates - Fully updated. It's from my CS2 Premium Professional edition. I have it installed on a Dell e1705 with Vista Home. Dual Processor, but still a 32 bit system. 2GB of ram and a 256 memory card.
I look at the Task manager and the program is using about 22mb of memory. After I select the create PDF form multiple files the program stops like it is about to do something. Vista doesn't register the program as not responding so it's doing something. The CPU usage is at about 50% and stays that way for at least 15 minutes. I just got tired of waiting and closed it in the task manager.
How do I fix this?

It is interesting that you say it is an Adobe bug (or at least that is the implication I got). Part of the problem with VISTA has been that there are a lot of programs that do not work. That is also why many businesses and individuals are still using XP and refused to upgrade. VISTA has a service pack out, but I hear it still has lots of problem. MS has fixed VISTA where there own software was concerned, such as putting the help system back in that they had removed. I am not trying to say that VISTA is not the way to go, but that the blame for things not working should not be put on other software developers.
The $1500 must be for CS, since an upgrade to AA8 from AA7 is only $159. In today's market, AA7 is actually an old man with AA8 being out for quite a while. Six months ago you could still get XP Pro for about $190. I understand it is now almost $800, but I really don't track the prices. I am getting a new machine with VISTA on it in a week or two and plan to look at it a bit (called give it a chance). However, I fully expect to remove VISTA and install XP Pro. To me, that cost is a lot better than upgrading all of my software because of the changes in Windows.
So which system has the bug, Adobe or VISTA. I think you will find a lot of folks who say it is VISTA (that is not to say that Adobe doesn't have some issues also). Hope you get your system working satisfactorily.

BIOS Compatibility between WinXP Pro and Vista Home Premium

I want to install WinXP Pro on my pc. I have a Desktop 3000 J115, Model 7387-A11 and it came with Vista Home Premium. I want to make sure that the BIOS can support either OS. If it cannot, I would like to know how to get the correct BIOS. I realize that there may be a few BIOS settings that are different between the OS's.
Thanks

This is not a right forum to post this problem. You should post it in Database General Forum.
I've Windows Vista Home Edition 32 bit.
In my laptop it is running but screen resolution changes to basic colour. Due to this, some graphical distortion occurs in few places. Also, refresh in the query grid needs to be perform when you are scrolling SQL Developer data from top to bottom or vice versa.
