Acrobat 8 GPO installation + MST file HOWTO??

Hello,
I'm currently deploying acrobat 8 standard software to some pc's.
Do I really need to create an administrative install or can I just copy the files from the cd to a network location, run the "customization wizard v8" to create an mst and then create the gpo to deploy the msi and the mst?
Thanks for any reply.
(I did find info about acrobat 7 but nothing so far for version 8)
kind regards,
Lieven

I am in the same scenario but with Reader 9.0. I have found that if I create the AIP and then attempt to use the Adobe Customization Wizard 9, that there is no required setup.ini in the AIP. I too have been able to use the Adobe Customization Wizard 9 and the original installation files (not AIP) with MST and GPO to install to workstations. But future patching is important. What is the best way to install via GPO and allow for future patching? Is the AIP still needed for Version 9? If so how do I get the AIP to work with the Adobe Customization Wizard 9? Thanks for any advice you can give.

Acrobat DC installs "Send File" without asking

I updated Acrobat and had DC delete and replace Pro XI. It also installed a add-on in MS Outlook called Send File. It did not ask if this was OK.
Personally I don't like the look of the new program and since you can uninstall and go back a generation I did.
Adobe, if you want to be Dropbox or Hightail then make a stand-alone. And never modify another non-Adobe application without asking permission.

Nothing can stop people reusing your material. If it's really worth
anything, text can be retyped of course, and images can be rescanned,
or screen captured. You should certainly make this part of your
contract with end users if it is a concern.
If you are sending proofs, you can use a lower resolution, but if you
are sending a final copy you have few options. You can of course set
document security to block Acrobat (but not every program) from
copying text or even allowing printing.

Error: "There is a problem With Adobe Acrobat/Reader..." What is .MST file??

I get the following error message and I looked it up in the knowledge base, and there was a solution for fixing the error message. However, I have no idea what they are talking about. I have downloaded the Customization Wizard, but I have no clue what the following means:
A) Create a new transform
B) Open your previously created .mst file
I went into the C Drive and opened Program Files. I found the Adobe folder, but I couldn't find an .mst file anywhere. Am I completely lost??? Below is the knowledge base solution:
Error: "There is a problem With Adobe Acrobat/Reader..." when you view a PDF in a browser (Acrobat and Adobe Reader 8 on Windows)
Issue
When you try to view a PDF in Internet Explorer, you see the error message, "There is a problem With Adobe Acrobat/Reader. Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and try again." When you click OK to the error, the PDF opens outside of the browser.
Reason
When you use the Adobe Customization Wizard to create a transform for Adobe Acrobat 8 or Adobe Reader 8, and you choose the option to "Make Acrobat the default viewer if both Acrobat and Reader are installed", or "Make Reader the default viewer if both Acrobat and Reader are installed", an error occurs if the computer does not have Acrobat or Reader already installed.
Solution
Create a new transform and re-deploy Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
Start the Adobe Customization Wizard 8.
Open your previously created .mst file.
Under Installation Options, select "Installer will decide which product will be the default".
Save the transform.
Re-deploy Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
Additional Information
When you create a transform in Adobe Customization Wizard 8, the installation options allow you to set the default viewer for PDF files. "Installer will decide which product will be the default" is the default setting and should be used when you are uncertain if the target machine has a version of Acrobat or Adobe Reader that won't be removed as part of the installation process. When installed silently using this option, Acrobat will always be configured as the default viewer.

I think you are headed down the wrong path. The Customization Wizard is what you use to push out Reader to several hundred computers. An MST is a package or transform file that is used to accomplish this task. Unless you are an IT person and are trying a deployment of Reader this solution does not fit your situation.

Installation of Acrobat Pro 11 fails to find Adobe Acrobat X Pro.Ink file

When I try to install of the Acrobat Pro 11 update it posts a message that it can't find the Adobe Acrobat X Pro.Ink file. I've repaired Pro X but it still posts the message. If I ignore it, it continues to remove Pro X files then stops and rolls back to restore them.

I used online chat. The solution was to use the Acrobat Cleaner tool from http://labsdownload.adobe.com/pub/labs/acrobat_ittools/acrobat_ittools_cleaner_p1_040612.z ip to remove Pro X.

Why Doesn't Acrobat X Installer Uninstall Reader X?

Good morning,
We have a site license for Acrobat X. We want to deploy to our end users but many of them are already running Reader X. I have used Adobe Customization Wizard X to create a mst file that says uninstall older versions of Adobe Reader. In the past (we have had a site license since Acrobat 9) it uninstalled all versions of Reader ( 6.0 up to 9.x at the time). In Acrobat X it is only uninstalling Reader 9 but not X. I suspect it is reading Reader "10.x" as older than Reader "6.0". Depending on how it interprets the numbers, it may show 10 lower than 6 since the first number of 10 is lower than 6. Anyone have any similar issues? is this a bug with the installer? Thanks for any help.

Thank you Ben for the quick reply.
So, I take it that the recommended option would be to have both Acrobat and Reader X on the same computer. Do I need to do anything to ensure that Reader X remains the default PDF viewer?
I believe In the customization wizard for Acrobat, I need to select the option "Installer will decide which product will be the default".

I need to configure Acrobat to display PDF files in Safari, but I have a lot of troubles to do it.I have OX S yosemite, I unistalled adobe acrobat, I closed safary and I installed the new version of adobe acrobat.

Dear everyone
I need to configure Acrobat to display PDF files in Safari, but I have a lot of troubles to do it.
I read a european commission document explaining that
http://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/data/support/sep_usermanual.pdf
If Safari does not display pdf forms in the browser window, uninstall all older versions of Adobe Reader and download the most recent one. First close Safari and then install Reader. Launch Safari and you ought to be able to open the pdf files inside the Safari window. If you install Adobe Reader 10.1.x without first closing Safari, Safari will not display the pdf file inside its browser window until it is re-launched. For further help, please see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/troubleshoot-safari-plug-acrobat-x.html
I have OX S yosemite, I unistalled adobe acrobat, I closed safary and I installed the new version of adobe acrobat
but when I open a web page that I need to allow me to display and modify PDF files it is not working.
I checked the following web page
Troubleshoot Safari plug-in | Acrobat X, Reader X
that is recommending the following:
The AdobePDFViewer plug-in is used to display PDF files in Safari using Acrobat and Reader.
This plug-in is installed as part of the Acrobat X or Reader X installation. The location of this plug-in is:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins/AdobePDFViewer.plugin
but after the new installation with this folder is completely empty and I am still
unable to open these pdf.
Does anybody knows anything else I can do?
Best regards

Need help with Acrobat Xi installation error

Here is the error I am getting...

Have tried installation several times. Need help now, considering I am paying for this service!

Thank you for the replies.
Jeff, I will check that link and try what is suggests.
Bill, to answer your questions...
1. This is a CC installation.
2. Yes, I am logged in as the admin and I have no anti-virus other than Microsoft Essentials enabled.
3. This is a download installation.
To give even more info that might help, I am using a Windows 7 machine with more than enough capability to run CC. I had installed Photoshop, Illustrator, among other apps successfully. I then tried the Acrobat XI installation. Acrobat XI downloaded and extracted, but when it started installing it froze around 50% and then I received the installation failed error from Windows. Once that was confirmed the CC install progress finishes but shows failure. The More Info reveals the error I pasted in above. Afterward, none of the CC apps worked properly and had to be uninstalled. So, next I installed the CC downloader and tried to start installing Acrobat XI first but the same error occurred. That's when I got frustrated and posted my original message. My limited knowledge leads me to think the error issue lies in the AcroPro.msi file but I have no idea what that is or how to find, correct, or install it.
Thanks again for any help you can provide. I'm really frustrated that I'm paying for something that I can't use.

InstallShield Tuner 6.0.1 creates corrupt MST files

MST files for Acrobat 6.0 Professional, which are created with InstallShield Tuner 6.0.1, neither do work, nor can be loaded into Orca.
I remarked, that the file AcroPro.mst is destroyed when loading AcroPro.itw. If I fix it before creating a new project, it seems to work.
Has anybody found a better workaround, than to fix AcroPro.mst, every time after starting InstallShield Tuner 6.0.1?
Has anybody a copy of InstallShield Tuner 6.0. May be it works with InstallShield Tuner 6.0.

The MST file that comes with Reader, Pro, Stnd, Elements is not meant to be opened in InstallShield Tuner for Acrobat. According to the documentation linked from the download page, you open the ITW file when you first open Tuner, then select the MSI file, then select Create Transform, and Tuner creates the MST for you.
You'll need both the MST that Tuner creates AND the original MST that comes with the product... You can see this if you select the 'create a setup.exe' option (I can't remember exactly what it's called) in the Package section of Tuner, then do the Packaging, and then look at the setup.ini in the resulting package...the CmdLine= section of setup.ini will have both MSTs listed with a semicolon between them.

Installer Log File

when i installed office, it seemed that an installer log file was created on the HD. i dragged it somewhere else, but later when i installed other programs (keyserver, acrobat, etc) other installer log files were again created on the HD. I got tried of dragging all these away, so i combined the files together and put them back onto HD. but why is the text file automatically changed into a unix executable file now? is it alright? and will other installer log files just add onto it later?

You can delete them or put them into either /username/Library/Logs/ or /Library/Logs/. They're not essential unless you have installation issues and want to provide the data to the developer whose SW you installed.

Is there a way to open a .mst file created in the student edition with MULTISIM 9

When a student builds a file with MultiSIM 9, the circuit is created as a .msm file. When the student goes home to work, they can open a .msm file with a student version, 2001 for example, but any change to the file can only be saved as a .mst file. As soon as the file is saved as a .mst file, we have not found a way to open the file with the educational version of MultiSIM 9. Is there any way to convert these files? This makes it very difficult for a student to work at home for a project between or prior to labs.
Thanks

JKR,
Unfortunately, the ".mst" extension is supposed to be open only by Textbook editions of Multisim. Not even a Power Pro version would be able to open it.
I'm not sure the specifics of your case, but I guess that you open/saved the circuit on your textbook edition and that converted the file extension, is that right?...
Well, as far as I know the textbook editions are meant to be 'demo' type of releases, so is limited in many features. You should be OK with a Student edition though -- which is not the one commonly found in textbooks.

I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard version in Windows 8.1 and when I try to create a .pdf file, I receive the following error message "Acrobat could not open "file name.log" because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged. To create a PDF document, go to the source application then print the document to .pdf" I am going to the source application and printing the document to .pdf yet it's saving the file as a .log file. After reinstalling the software, I initially didn't encounter this problem but on my second and third attempts to convert files to .pdf format, this error message reappeared. How do I resolve this problem?

I have a similar problem which i did not have before...and it exists only in some powerpoint files which i want to print as a pdf file...and i get the same message as above.
the log says the bellow details...what's the problem and how can i resolve it? thanks.

Error Message: There was an error opening this document. Acrobat cannot open this file because a task is still active in Acrobat.

I've tried Command Q to close; Tried Adobe Reader Tool Bar but closing is grayed out; I'ved held the power button for hard close, but everytime I try to open a .pdf I get this message:
There was an error opening this document. Acrobat cannot open this file because a task is still active in Acrobat.
I'm not extremely technical, but I can follow directions if someone can help!
Thanks

Looks like it got stuck.
You can switch to another program or the Finder (click on desktop) and Apple menu > Force Quit > Adobe
You can press and hold the power button, it's a emergency force shutdown which you can boot normally and it should be fine.

Acrobat 7.0 Professional file disappears after loading

Recently my co-worker ran into the following problem: every time she opened a PDF file, the file would load, display on the screen and then disappear. Acrobat would still be open and the title bar would still display the file name, but the file would no longer be visible. This happened to all the PDF files she accessed.
She's rebooted and the problem seems to have disappeared for the moment... (but, like all problems, I'm sure it's lying in wait until we have a deadline to meet...)
Suggestions?

Heh...maybe there is easy explanation for this :)
You are saying Acrobat is still running, file is still opend (can the file be seen under the Window option?)
Acrobat remembers the position of last opened file, so it is possible that it is opened somewhere outside the visible screen.
This is common when having two monitors e.g. and you extend Acrobat to both of them, open some document on secondary monitor, then resize acrobat back to first monitor, so actually last file was opened on second monitor...
