Acrobat 8 pro update on windows 7

I have acrobat 8 pro. I just got a new computer with Windows 7 pro and the acrobat 8 will not load.  I would like to update to acrobat XI.  How do I do this if I don't have to older version loaded?

That's simple.
Open http://www.adobe.com/sea/products/acrobatpro/buying-guide-upgrade-pricing.html
Upgrade to Acrobat XI Pro
Download and install the product.
When you launch it, it will validate the serial number and prompt you to enter the serial number of the qualifying product (Since the new AXI serial number is an upgrade serial number)
Select Acrobat 8 Pro -> enter the serial number of A8 Pro and click Next
........and you are done!!! (my fav step...)
You don't have to install A8 as long as you have its serial number in you hand.
Happy 2013!

  • I installed Acrobat X Pro on a Windows 7 Laptop.  I get error 1602 when attempting to update the product. Does anyone have any suggestions to fix it?

    I installed Acrobat X Pro on a Windows 7 laptop and get error code 1602 when attempting to update it.  I have tried the Repair Acrobat installation function in the help menu.

    Hey fdciii,
    Please try renaming the ARM folder at this location:
    C:\ProgramData\Adobe\ARM
    Now try updating Acrobat from the Help menu.
    You can also try installing updates from the following link:

  • Activate Acrobat X Pro Update from Acrobat 8 Standard Update

    When I try to install the Acrobat 10 Pro Update software that I purchased directly from Adobe, a window opens that demands entry of the Adobe 8 code but does not list Acrobat 8 Standard as one of the possible choices.
    When I purchased the upgrade the Adobe web site said" consider an upgrade to Acrobat X Pro if you have Acrobat 9, 8, or 7 Standard."
    I not only considered the upgrade, I purchased it for USD 199. How do I install?
    This is very unpleasant because in order to try and install Acrobat 10 Pro, I am asked to uninstall Acrobat 8. Then when I get to the final installation step, I am not allowed to continue and am left with nothing!!!  Since Adobe 8 was an upgrade to Acrobat 6, the reinstallation process is lengthy.

    Redwood X I would recommend contacting our support team.  They can easily verify your serial number is valid.  For the best assistance, I recommend our chat support at http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6.  Our chat representatives can provide a personalized experience to resolve the issue you have described.

    Will Acobe Acrobat X Pro run on Windows 8?

    Yes. Acrobat X is compatible with Win 8 along with any CS5.5 and CS6 suite. Make sure you update it to 10.1.4

  • How can I make Acrobat 6 Pro compatible with Windows 7?

    When I load Acrobat 6 Pro on my Windows 7 laptop I get a message stating it isn't compatible.  Is there a fix for this issue?

    If you were able to install it with Acrobat and Distiller opening if selected, there is a chance. However, it is a work around. The problem is typically the print driver and Acrotray. The work around (if these two basic programs run) is to install a color PS printer (may be one of the HP printers or even a PS printer from Adobe), rename it to Adobe PDF, and set the port to FILE. To print or use PDF Maker, you print to this Adobe PDF printer that you have created. Then open the file created in Distiller to obtain a PDF. I have done this with AA7 on a WIn7, 64-bit, and with AA5 (naming the printer Acrobat Distiller) on Win7, 32-bit, for testing.
    Also, be sure to install the updates to Acrobat. You will likely have to download them from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows and install them in order.

  • I would like to install my licensed Acrobat 8 Pro on my Windows 8.1 PC...any patches for this?

    what is the method for installing Acrobat 8 Pro on a Windows 8.1 PC?

    I have not heard much from folks regarding problems or success for this combination. You will just have to try to see if it loads. You will need to be prepared to do the updates that were needed from Win7 and will most likely be required for Win8.1, if it works at all. If it installs, the 2 problem areas are typically the print driver and AcroTray. The rest may install, yet these may not. In such a case there are some workarounds, but getting XI is a better solution.

  • Does anybody know if Acrobat 9 Pro work in WIndows 8 64 bits?

    Does anybody know if Acrobat 9 Pro work in WIndows 8 64 bits?

    Hi parpires
    You are welcome to try but it was not tested.  Also from my understanding printer drivers have changed again in Windows 8 so it is unlikely you will be able to get the Adobe PDF printer to function.  Acrobat 10 and Acrobat 11 do function properly with Windows 8.  If you end up running into installation difficulties then you will likely want to consider upgrading to Acrobat 11.
    Upgrading paths are shown here

  • I deactivated Acrobat 9 Pro from a Windows 8 laptop and installed it on a new Windows 8 laptop and got the error message "Invalid Serial Number." I am entitled to this installation, can someone help?

    I deactivated Acrobat 9 Pro from a Windows 8 laptop and installed it on a new Windows 8 laptop and got the error message "Invalid Serial Number." I am entitled to this installation, can someone help?

    I see that the number in my Adobe Account is a MAC serial number – I purchased both the Mac and Windows versions of the program. I tried to enter the serial number of the Windows version into my account and it says it’s already registered. But when I installed the Windows version on a Windows computer I got the invalid serial number message. They have two different serial numbers! Can you help me with this?

  • Acrobat 9 Pro Extended on Windows Vista 32 bit

    Acrobat 9 Pro Extended on Windows Vista 32 bit consistently dies after about 10 seconds, with no error messages or other indication of what went wrong.

    You have an activation issue. When you launch the program it is going out to check on activation. This is failing and so the program closes. The solution to your issue most likely lies in the TechNote below:

    Ignore solution #1 as you are using Acrobat 9. Start with solution #2. Good Luck!

    You're saying you don't back up your phone regularly? You should ALWAYS back up before updating your phone. That said, try resetting first: hold down the home button and the power button for at least 10-20 seconds until you see the Apple. Hopefully you can then try to perform the update again. Start doing backups if your data is important to you.

  • Will Acrobat 9 Pro run using Windows 7?

    Will Acrobat 9 Pro run using Windows 7?

    This machine is Win7, 32-bit, and AA 9 has run on it from day one. Folks have even reported AA 8 running on both 32 and 64-bit versions of Win7, though there were some issues with the 64-bit version. Win7 is not one of the certified versions for AA 9, but I suspect you would have no problems. Win8.1 might be a different story. It sounds like you are considering upgrading your machine. I can not say without question you will have no problems, but my guess is that it will work fine. It would be a good idea to consider upgrading if you have a chance and the cash.

  • Help! Acrobat 9 Pro Updater Error 1067 (Windows XP SP3)

    I had to (re)install the Adobe CS3 Design Premium package - it is working fine. I then installed Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. The install went fine, the program works  - but the updater always went belly up with a code 1067. I then installed Photoshop CS4. Which is also working fine.
    Frustrated, I uninstalled Acrobat 9 Pro and then reinstalled it. And the Updater again gives me a 1067 error code.
    I currently have Acrobat 9 Pro V9.2.0 installed & there are updates to be applied. Please advise as to a workaround....to get the updates...

    This is the image that I have plus....

  • Acrobat XI Pro update / print spooler problem

    Running Acrobat XI Pro on Windows XP Pro 5.1 sp 3..
    -- Acrobat tries to update 11.0.02. I see the icon in the Windows tray for a long time. I open the Acrobat Updater, and it is stuck on "Service to stop:  Print Spooler."
    -- It was like that for about a day ... maybe two... then it gave the 'Install Failed" error, and, if I remember correctly, gave the error message 1602.
    -- When I looked up the error, the stated remedy was to try again but using the Help --> Check for Updates menu item inside Acrobat (instead of letting automatic updater do it).
    -- So I did that yesterday evening, about 10 hours ago, and currently, the install is still stuck on "Service to stop: Print Spooler."
    This actually happened once before some months ago, and I forget what I did to fix or end the situation... but whatever that was, I'm not finding it now.
    Help?

    Please follow the steps mentioned here: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/error-1602-update-acrobat-reader.html

  • Adobe Acrobat 8 pro updates step by step?

    Is that the truth?! I installed Adobe Acrobat 8 pro at my new bussiness machine (Win7ultimate32bit) and I have to load every f... update one by one and to install every update one by one and to restart the machine recently? Or I'am blind and can't find the whole update pack at this confusing web page?
    Auto update tells me, there are no updates by starting version 8.0.0! its a joke, isn't it?
    Michael

    Adobe is not compatible with my mind!
    But more or less it works now with Win7 after playing a marathon of updates :/
    For Germans who don't speak English well enough here an german explanation:
    Alle Updates von der Version 8.0.0 bis zur derzeit gültigen Version 8.3.3 erfolgen schrittweise.
    Ich habe leider keine Pro-Version mit integrierten Updates finden können o.O
    Erst ab Version 8.1.7 macht der Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro automatisch seine Updates und läd die ca.300MB bis 8.3.1 selbstständig nach.

    Ganz großes Kino!
