Acrobat 8 doesn't run

My MacBook recently died and I got a new one and used Migration Assistant to move over my applications from the old disk (the GPU died so the disk was still able to boot up - just no graphics) a few days ago. Yesterday I tried to run Acrobat Pro 8 and it says it needs me to enter the serial number. I enter the serial number of the CS3 Design Premium software I've had for years, but it says it's not valid.
Any ideas on why it doesn't like my serial number or how to make it accept it?
I don't use Acrobat very often but have never had this problem before.
Thanks

ps - running on OS X 10.8.3 on a MacBook Pro

Well, I did a fresh install of CS3 on a virgin Mountain Lion boot volume. When the install finished, I tried to run Acrobat Pro, but it says that I need to run another CS3 app before being able to run Acrobat Pro the first time (did not ask for a serial number as it previously did on the version resulting from the Migration Assistant). So there is no separate serial number for Acrobat Pro at all, just it insisting on running one of the other CS3 apps before it runs the first time.
So there must be something goofed up with the Acrobat Pro on the original Mountain Lion, but no idea how to fix it. Any suggestions?
Thanks for the help...will try the CS3 forum as well. If I find anything out will post whatever I find out.

  • Adobe Acrobat doesn't open

    Hi¨
    After two documents openened and printed succesfully Adobe Acrobat refuses to open a window. There were countless acrobat.exe processe running after which I logged out and on again. Now acrobat doesn't open a window for a short time acrobat.exe appears in task manager but that it disappears without an error message.
    I have acrobat 10.0 from CS6 on Windows 8.0
    This happened on two computers. I paid 400 Euro for a CS6 suite that seems to be rather buggy.
    Had someone with the same problem this fixed ?

    First of all, this is the Reader forum, not the Acrobat forum.
    Acrobat 10 is not compatible with Windows 8 unless you update to at least 10.1.5 ... Do that and then try again.

    What is the newest version of Adobe Acrobat Standard that runs on Windows XP SP3? I currently have Adobe Acrobat Standard 6.0.0. Thanks!

    The current updates 10.1.13 and 11.0.10 no longer support Windows XP SP3.  The last versions to test were 10.1.10 and 11.0.3 I think.   But I wouldn't recommend using those because of the Security Updates in between those versions and the current updates.  Microsoft doesn't even support Windows XP SP3 any longer. I would say to try updating both the OS and the applications.

  • Crystal Report doesn't run on the production PC

    I developed a report using VS 2005/Crystal Report. The report has three on-demand sub reports and some subreports. It runs well on my PC, but doesn't run on the production PC, on that PC, I only can see the report header or few columns. The difference (I can tell) between my PC and the production PC is my PC has VS 2005 installed.
    Is there anything I can do to make the report running on the production PC?
    Thanks.

    Hi Jhon,
    Have you installed the runtimes of CR of VS2005 on your server, if not than please install from(only applicable if you are using the bundle version of CR i.e. CR 10.2 which comes with VS 2005) [here|http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/additional_downloads/runtime.asp#07].
    Note- use the appropriate version of merge modules for 64 or 32 bit machine
    hope this works

    TM does not work like that.
    If you want files to use later.. do not use TM.
    Or do not use TM to the same location. Plug a USB drive into the computer and use that as the target for the permanent backup.
    Read some details of how TM works so you understand what it will do.

  • Have downloaded firefox update 3 times and it doesn't run

    I have just started to use firefox on my pc which has windows 7. I keep getting a message saying I need to update the version of firefox, so I down load it and it says it is downloaded ( I now have it 3 times) but it doesn't run and still keepstellin me I need to upgrade it??? DO I just go back to internet explorer???

    Your browser reported to the forum that you are running version 3.6.6. Can you verify that using the Help > About Firefox dialog?
    Which file did you download: Firefox 3.6.27 or Firefox 10.0.2?
    (If you need to re-download, you can choose from the files on these pages:<br>http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all for 10.0.2 or <br>http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older for 3.6.27)
    Make sure to close Firefox before launching the installer for the newer version. Do you get any error messages when you start it? It might take a minute for the installer to check itself before you get a dialog.

    Hi. I am running Windows 8.1 on a  64 bit Toshiba Satellite P70-A laptop with 16Gb of RAM. I have installed Adobe Creative Suite 6 - Master Collection. All is fine except for Adobe Acrobat X. It runs OK  for a while, but then suddenly it won't work. I uninstall it, re-boot and re-install again, bit the same process repeats itself and once again I have to uninstall and re-install again. I don't know if windows update interferes with it? Has anyone else had a similar problem? Is it fixable?

    I think you'd be much better off asking in the Acrobar forum, Acrobat

    I have two computers - iMac and PC.  What is the EARLIEST version of Acrobat I can run on each system.  I am running 10.9.2 on iMac and Windows 8 on PC.  Thanks.

    Adobe currently supports Acrobat X and Acrobat XI for Mac and Windows platforms. More details about base system requirements can be found here: Tech specs | Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and the changes to these requirements with the product updates can be found here : Overview — Acrobat and Adobe Reader Release Notes. So the earliest version would be Acrobat X and the Latest would be Acrobat XI.
    Please let us know if that answers your query.

  • Applet embedded in JSP doesn't run on browser with older than JRE-1.6

    I have embeded an Applet in my JSP Page which used JDK1.6's getHardwareAddress() method to get user's physical address.
    I have embeeded this into a JAR file and used it in my JSP where this applet run on onload() event of the form --> runs the applet --> and gets physical address of user machine and prints it in one of the text boxes on the form.
    Now, the issue is that the applet doesn't run on browser that doesn't support JRE 1.6
    My concern is that how can I run this (if at all possible) in browsers that support lower versions of JRE or is it possible to check that if the browser doesn't support JRE 1.6 then load the basic version of form without running the applet. Can i actually check the version of browser JRE somehow and stop to execute the applet. Because what happens as of now is that if the applet doesn't execute, the complete form fails to load.
    The last option is that I give a message on my web page that redirects user to Sun Java site and asks them to update their browsers.

    Personally, I have no knowledge about Applet but have you checked this link?

    One has to initialise a session first for use with Oracle Apps if you want to make it run as a concurrent job.
    Any decleration within your package will not be recognised unless initialisation is sucessful.
    Investigate the built-in packages:
    FND_GLOBAL - for initialisation
    FND_SUBMIT - for setting session relevant parameters
    -- function returns true or false depending on whether the initialisation was sucessful or not
    create or replace function is_Init_OK (p_User_Name       in varchar2
                                          ,p_Responsibility  in varchar2
                                          ,p_Language        in varchar2) return boolean as

  • Nsswitch doesn't run PADL's nss_ldap.so

    Hi, all!
    I've really broken my brain.
    I've successfully compiled PADL's nss_ldap-253 with openldap-2.3.21 and openssl-0.9.7i. All linked static.
    /etc/nsswitch.conf reads "passwd: files ldap". nss_ldap.so copied to /usr/lib/nss_ldap.so.1.
    When I run `getent passwd` it displays content of /etc/passwd only and exits with code 0. truss shows that it opens /usr/lib/nss_ldap.so.1. But it doesn't run any functions, even nssldap_passwd_constr().
    I've downloaded ready-to-use nss_ldap.so.1 from www.symas.com and it works fine. It frustrates and encourages me. I cannot understand what is wrong with my job?
    I have Sun Fire V240, Solaris 9 9/05, GCC 3.4.2.
    openssl-0.9.7i:
    # ./config no-hw threads
    # make ; make install
    openldap-2.3.21:
    # ./configure disable-ipv6 disable-slapd disable-slurpd disable-shared --without-cyrus-sasl \
    --with-tls CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/ssl/include LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/ssl/lib
    # make depend ; make ; make install
    nss_ldap-253:
    # CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/ssl/include LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/ssl/lib LIBS="-lssl -lcrypto" \
    ./configure with-ldap-dir=/usr/local with-ldap-lib=openldap --enable-rfc2307bis \
    with-ldap-conf-file=/etc/ldap.conf with-ldap-secret-file=/etc/ldap.secret
    # LDADD=-L/usr/local/ssl/lib make
    # cp nss_ldap.so /usr/lib/nss_ldap.so.1
    # ln -s /etc/ldap.conf /usr/local/etc/openldap/ldap.conf

    GCC 3.4.2 was the matter. GCC 3.3.2 works fine.
