Acrobat 8 Installation, and Activation from CS2 download page

After finding out that my disc for Acrobat 8 Pro is no longer usable I downloaded (several times) from the Adobe page for legacy applications activation.  I have consistantly received an error message after start up of "A serious error has been detected and Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional cannot continue.  Please reinstall the application and try again."  I have use this application for years on this equipment, and Windows 7 O/S without any problems, but I lost a HDD with drive C: on it and had to rebuild.
I purchased Acrobat XI as an upgrade thinking this would help resolve the problem, but it will not recognize my old s/n, nor the s/n from the Activation program Adobe has going on.
Does anyone have any thoughts?

first, remove acrobat 8 completely:  http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/manually-remove-acrobat-8-windows.html (follow the directions for removing acrobat 8 pro.)
then reinstall acrobat 8 pro using your serial number for acrobat 8 pro.

  • Error installing Acrobat Pro 7.0 from CS2 downloads

    While attempting to install Acrobat Pro 7.0 from the CS2 downloads I am able to enter the serial number and launch the install but the install stops with an error 1310 which I can choose to ignore but then I get an error 1304 where I need to cancel the install.
    Why?

    I have updated from Snow Leopard to Lion with Safari Version 5.0.5. Now I can not update to Safari 5.1. There is no update in the Software Updater, and on the apple-download page, I only found a Safari 5.1 for Snow Leopard. When executing it, there is an error message, that it is for 10.6 only.
    It seems that I should have first updated Safari, and then only to Lion, which I didn't. Any idea how I can fix this now without having to rollback to Snow Leopard, update Safari and then go back to Lion?

    Try this Safari5.1 from the installer package

    The download worked better with Firefox not sure why. At the bottom of the page after the captcha>> slow down load is the Free link,  it took about 4 minutes to download on my test.

  • When will download and activation for CS2 be possible again?!?!?!?!?

    Download and activation for CS2 is currently down.
    Is this temporary or has Adobe stolen my legally bought CS2 just b/c it is old?!?!?!?!?

    Win7
    start in: www.adobe.com/go/activation
    next: choose "I'm having a problem activation my product"
    next: next to "Error Code 24:24" choose link: "Activation server unavailable ..."
    on the new page under "How to install" choose: "2. Download and install CS2 applications"
    select language (Danish)
    on the new page under "CS2 Downloads" choose "Jeg accepterer" (if you see it in English: "I accept")
    on the new page there then should be a download link for CS2 - BUT NO!

  • Problem with installation and activation

    Hi, I have a problem with the installation of Adobe Muse.
    I had a free 30-days trial, when it was over I bought the product ($ 13 per month), 
    I installed the program again and I see the same window with the finished Trials
    and it requires a serial number and does not allow to enter the program.
    I installed the program on your PC wife without any problems, but I can not install it on a laptop.
    I have a laptop with Windows 8 operating system.
    What I've done:
    1. Uninstalled the free program,
    2. check the connection to the Internet,
    3. has installed a new program from the official website adobe.com,
    4. Remove the line for the activation of the hosts file and resave the file,
    5. turned off the brandmower,
    6. rebooted.
    I can't get support for a 3 days, is it the most terrible support I've ever seen? I dunno
    Please help me at [email protected]

    I guess this stuff helps me

  • I just downloaded Mountain Lion and everything is working great. But i keep getting an error in the app store and i can't download 'Pages"

    I just downloaded Mountain Lion and everything is working great. But i keep getting an error in the app store and i can't download 'Pages' or any other apps. I keep getting an "error" and it says credit card processing is temporarily unavailable......help

    Try deleting the cache associated with the App Store.
    Quit the App Store if it's open.
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this exactly as you see it here:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
    Click Go
    Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Launch the App Store. See if that made a difference...

  • Some pages of my website are not active from the home page

    Built my website with iweb.  When I go to the site the tabs to all the pages show, but several of them are not active from the home page.  If I go to one of the active pages I can then click on the other pages.  Is there a way to fix this?  I've tried reloading the entire site, but several of the tabs remain inactive from the home page.  Any help would be greatly appreciate - Thanks,  Jodi

    Thanks Roddy - I tried moving it down and it didn't work - That line is in the Template I used to build the site and is on every page.  I did finally get the command A to work, but there's nothing covering those bottom three tabs.
    However, when I put my mouse in the area of the box where it has my name (the image you sent me above) it shows a link desktop/site/booker_files and I noticed I have one of the rss feed blue arrows, but I can't seem to delete it.  I wonder if that has something to do with it.  It does the same thing on the website if you hover with your mouse. 
    Truly appreciate your help.

  • Downloads dragged and dropped from Firefox download window into Outlook e-mail show as file location text.

    I have a user who normally can drag files from Firefox's Download window into an e-mail in Outlook and it creates an attachment of that file in the e-mail. However, lately, the dragged .pdf or whatever file only shows up as a text file location like:
    \\file:%Downloads%\randomfile.pdf
    It's not a link either, it's just the text.
    I've tried doing a repair of Outlook.
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox 19.
    I've tested dragging items from the desktop to the e-mail and it works fine.
    I can't drag and drop from the Downloads window to the desktop.
    I just wanted to add this user is using Windows XP Pro.

    I can confirm that this is an issue with the newest release of Firefox. I just upgraded my Firefox, which was previously 18.02 to 19.0 and now I'm getting the same error. It's a bug.

    You will probably find better support about the features of the Webex app on their support page here: http://www.webex.com/products/web-conferencing/mobile-iphone-ipad-faq.html
    Doesn;t look like it's listed as a feature of the iPad app.

    http://www.howtogeek.com/120277/how-to-install-flash-on-the-nexus-7-and-other-jelly-bean-devices/
    You do not need a Beta channel build of Firefox (which currently is 32.0b6) to use Flash as the issue was you needed Firefox 27.0 or newer to use the old Flash 11.1 plugin on Android '''4.4'''. after it came out on tablets/phones.
    What Nexus 7 version do you have as there was a 2012 and a 2013 model. A easy way to tell if it is a 2013 is it has a camera on each '''back''' and front while 2012 only has one on front.
    If it is the 2012 then it has a Nvidia Tegra 3 so the old Flash 11.1 Plugin is disabled.
