Acrobat 9 Pro reinstall

How do I reinstall Acrobat 9 Pro?  I lost it during a computer malfunction. I have the serial number but no disk. Adobe Chat was no help; he told me to go to the forums.

Hi Swabie,
You can download Acrobat 9 Pro from : http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-8-9-product-downloads.html
and use the serial number to activate the software.

  • Acrobat Pro reinstall won't accept serial number.

    I have an iMac running Yosemite. I had to reinstall Adobe CS3 suite on a partition because I have some files that I need to keep the older software for, but when I open the program Acrobat Pro after the install, which went OK, it says my serial number is not valid. I also entered the serial number for the previous version of Acrobat Pro, and the serial number for CS2, but still get the same message. All the other programs opened OK and accepted the serial number, and I have reinstalled before on both Snow Leopard and Mavericks with no problem.  Any thoughts on the problem would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi rolandk43,
    Are you still facing this issue.
    Do you have separate serial number for Acrobat and CS3 suite?
    Also attach the screen shot of your problem when you reply.

  • Acrobat Pro 9, X, and XI refuse to install

    I recently upgraded my current machine and repaved it. I am trying to get Acrobat Pro reinstalled. I've tried Acrobat 9, X, and the XI trial.
    For all three versions, the install completes, but when I run the actual Acrobat application I get a dialog saying:
    Please uninstall and reinstall the product.
    If this problem still occurs, please contact Adobe technical support for help, and
    mention the error code shown at the bottom of this screen.
    Error: 16
    I've reinstalled, rebooted, uninstalled, in every permutation I can think of. The above error is for the Acrobat XI download. I've also gotten Error: 6. The PDF print driver did install and works, but I want the actual Acrobat app.
    This is standalone Acrobat, not part of CS Studio or any other package.
    My machine:
    WIndows 8 64 bit
    Intel i7 CPU
    8 GB RAM
    over 500 GB free on C: drive
    Any suggestions?

    Hi ap9ut4vn,
    Error 16 usually comes up due to permission issues.
    Please check the solution 1 of the KB Doc : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/configuration-error-cs5.html
    If the installation completes and you are unable to launch the software, you can try the below mentioned basic troubleshooting steps :
    > Enable the hidden Admin Account on Windows 7 ( Ref :  http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-adminis trator-account-on-windows-vista/ )
    > Disable all Non-Microsoft Startup Services. (Ref : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/disable-startup-items-servic es-windows.html )
    > Disable all the Antivirus softwares like CA, Norton,Mc Afee etc. temporarily from the computer.
    Reboot and try installing in the enabled Administrator account and check.

  • Reinstalled Acrobat Pro 8.1.6 won't let me print web pages to PDFs

    I'm really ticked at Adobe's "help" in updating the program only to cause a lot of misery.  I'd read Acrobat had a security update, and got a constant reminder from Adobe update to install the available update.  I've been using Acrobat Pro 8.1.6 with absolutely no problems printing web pages to PDFs.  I installed the 8.1.7 update which immediately disabled Acrobat completely.  So I wasted a lot of time uninstalling Acrobat and reinstalling sequential versions to get back to 8.1.6.  Now I can't print web pages to a PDF.
    I had NOT done anything else to installed programs in the meantime, except that probably Norton has automatically updated antivirus files in the background.  I don't have any problems using Acrobat to open and print an existing PDF, or to create new PDFs from my scanner.  I can do a hardcopy print of a webpage by selecting my Brother printer.  From Word 2002 and Excel 2002, I can create a PDF by "printing" to Acrobat as usual.   The only problem is creating a PDF by "printing" a webpage by selecting Acrobat as the device from the list of available printers.  This problem happens both with Firefox and with Internet Explorer 7.
    I have Windows XP Pro SP3.  I did the most recent Windows Tuesday security update several days before messing around with Acrobat and did not have any problems printing PDF files from Firefox or IE7.  So, it seems like it's clearly an Adobe Acrobat problem.  I get the small box saying "Preparing to Print" which goes nowhere and then I have to use the Task Manager to get out of the loop.  That closes Firefox, and when I reopen Firefox, the same webpage comes up.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.1.0 distiller ICC profile error asks for reinstall

    I have Windows XP professional, SP3.
    My Systems Administrator recently upgraded my Adobe Acrobat Pro 8 to 9.1.0 and since then I keep getting an error that says: Distiller cannot find its standard ICC profiles. Please reinstall Adobe Acrobat to correct this problem.
    This error happens when:
    1. I print to Adobe from a web page (IE 7.0.5730.11 or Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.20)
    2. I try to print to any printer from certain websites, such as the usps.com, where I print all our postage labels from.
    3. Occasionally when I start up the PC.
    Sometimes I get the error but it still pdfs the page. Usually, though, it hangs and then Acrobat and the web browser close.
    I seem to be able to pdf MS Office 2007 items (Word, Excel) and my Filemaker Pro Advanced 10 records. I guess it's when I'm "printing" to Adobe as opposed to "saving as pdf" that I have this problem.
    Acrobat 8 worked fine. My Sys Admin has reinstalled the upgrade twice (after trying a repair which didn't work) to no avail. He can't find any documentation about this error at Adobe, so he's going to uninstall it and switch me back to Adobe 8.
    I do all of the pdf'ing of our deliverable documents at my company and I would like to have the latest edition of Acrobat. If anyone knows of anything I can do, please let me know.
    Thanks!
    Stephie

    Adobe Tech support was most helpful on this.  First download the updated
    Distiller ICC profile files at:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4075&fileID= 3790
    Unzip the file and copy only the *.icc files (without regard to the subfolders that they are in - in other words, take the files out of each of the subfolders) to the followng folder in Windows 7:
    c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\color
    These new files will probably overwrite some old ones.
    This solved the problem for me.
    This is actually the best solution though I found that instead of copying all the .icc files to the windows\sys...  folder, all you need to do is copy the 3 Video files from the RGB folder (VideoHD.icc, VideoNTSC.icc, and VideoPAL.icc).  Once you add these three files to  c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\color  you will be good to go.
    It seems that this was an error on the part of Adobe in that there is no reason to include Video files for printing.  Nevertheless, the distiller will look for these and return the ICC profile error message if those files are not present.

  • Need help w Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro reinstall from CS4 Master Collection disks.

    Hi all, I'm hoping that you can help me with something. This bug is costing me tons of time and frustration, so whoever can give me a walkthrough, step by step, of what to do, will be my favorite person of the year.
    I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro that I installed originally from my CS4 Master Collection. This collection came as a set of physical disks.
    Now, the problem is that, for the past couple of years, Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro has been super, duper buggy on my computer. For example:
    - It won't let me install updates to it.
    - It does weird things and gets stuck a lot.
    - It likes to crash.
    - It won't let me uninstall it. I tried to uninstall it, and I got an error message that says, "Invalid Application. The application selected was not a valid Acrobat application for this uninstaller. Please rerun the uninstaller."
    - I tried all kinds of things. I looked on the forums and took all the different kinds of advice. Same problems persist.
    - The current version is 9.4.4. It hasn't let me update since then.
    I am afraid to just delete the application, because word on the street is that doing that will mess up all your files. So I want to uninstall properly. I heard on the forums that reinstalling is the best way to go.
    I finally found the CS4 disks that I used to install this (and my entire CS4) a few years ago. But now I'm not sure what to do next. These are my challenges:
    - When I put in the first disk, it prompts me to reinstall the entire CS4. I'm not sure how to go in and reinstall just the Acrobat part of it.
         - Adobe doesn't provide this as a download, so I can't download a new version. So the CS4 is my only option, I believe.
    - If my current Acrobat 9 Pro is messed up like it is, what procedure should I follow so as to be able to replace the bad one with the good.
    - Is this version of CS4 Master Collection disks known to have a buggy Acrobat on it? Will installing it not solve the problem?

    I googled Acrobat 1301, and the Adobe help threads I read all recommended that I uninstall the application, so I did. I opened the uninstaller and went through the procedure.
    But then I got the following message:
    "Invalid Application.  The application selected was not a valid Acrobat application for this uninstaller. Please rerun the uninstaller."
    This is weird, because the create date and date modified are all the same for the Adobe Acrobat Pro, Adobe Uninstaller and Adobe Distiller in the folder. So how could it be not a valid Acrobat application for this uninstaller?

  • I purchased CS6 and had problems with the Adobe Acrobat Pro so i uninstalled and now need to reinstall but serial number wont work. How can i reinstall ONLY Adobe Acrobat Pro since its included in CS6?

    I purchased Design Standard CS6 the entire package. I downloaded and installed but I was continually having problems with Adobe Acrobat Pro. I tried updating to the newest version but it only made the problems worse (acrobat was super slow and constantly not responding). So i decided to try to uninstall and then reinstall the program. Well I uninstalled, and then attempted to reinstall ONLY the adobe acrobat pro but it says my serial number (which is for design standard) will not work. Since Acrobat Pro is included in the suite, i thought this wouldnt be a problem. Is there anyway to get around this without uninstalling the entire design standard and reinstalling everything? I only need to reinstall acrobat pro.

    You need to reinstall Acrobat the the Creative Suite, you cannot download it is a separate application and install it that way because it will be looking for a serial number relative to being a singly purchased application.

    I uninstalled Adobe Acrobat Pro due to Windows 8 malfunction with starting up. I am trying to reinstall as I am an owner of the Creative Suite CS6 and I cannot access my serial number. I purchased the software in 2013 and never registered i, apparently. When directed on Adobe's site to access the serial number, it takes me to an outside 3rd party site, which I tried but it does not actually work. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hey beccac85068042,
    Adobe will provide you the serial number only if you are a registered user.
    Please refer the following link to know more on registration for Adobe products:

    You might Contact Customer Care and seek help on the same.

    Hey jeroenb16613921,
    Please specify exactly when you get this white popup screen. While opening a PDF or launching Acrobat by double-clicking on the Acrobat icon.
    If it comes when opening a PDF, then where is this PDF actually stored?
    Let me know more on the same so that I can analyze the issue.

    Acrobat Pro 9 for mac won't launch, reloaded from disk when hard drive needed to be replace. It's in applications folder but there is an X on the Acrobat Reinstall icon. What should I do.

    Hi Janice,
    What version of Mac OS are you using?
    Adobe does not recommend migrating the software from one disk to the other.
    Please run the setup file for Acrobat and reinstall the software. You might want to delete the existing version of Acrobat installed before reinstalling it.

  • I have Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 version 9.5.2 running on my mac. I recently reinstalled my mac from a bac

    I have Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 version 9.5.2 running on my mac. I recently reinstalled my mac from a backup and now Acrobat will not update. Thanks Glyn.

    Hi  GlynIC,
    What exactly is happening when you try to update.
    How are you trying to update it, using patch or doing a check for update from application itself.

  • Reinstall Acrobat Pro 7 - can't install updates past 7.0.5

    Upgraded to OS 10.5 (PPC Mac - last operating system) and had to reinstall Acrobat Pro 7 from CD as "components were missing". Adobe Updater worked through 7.0.5 Update, now refuses to add any further updates. Tried manual updating, but the 7.0.7 updater says "An invalid application was selected" when I try to select the copy of Acrobat Pro 7.0.5. The 7.1.3 "all" updater, as well as all those between 7/0/7 and it,  tells me "The selected application version is outside the range that can be updated with this installer".
    Suggestions?

    When I was installing, I received a message saying,
    "Error 1310. Error writing to file C:\Program Files (X86)\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\adistres.dll.  Verify that you have access to that directory."
    Then it had a button for retry and when I hit it, it finished installing without any more errors.  My UAC always asks me to allow programs to make changes to the computer and when I allow, it's always fine.  I actually like this for added security.  I've never had an issue with any other program.
