Acrobat 9 Pro upgrade installation on new PC

Hi,
I've installed Acrobat 9 Pro on my new PC using the serial number I received when I bought it in 2010.
However, as part of the installation process, I'm now being asked for the serial number for the original product that this one was an upgrade for. I don't have that, as I bought it in 2008.
Is there any way I can find it online?

Hi NickCrowhurst,
Thank You for posting on the forums. Kindly helps with the information listed below for further assistance.
1.where did you purchase the previous version of acrobat from (Adobe/Reseller)
2.Did you register the product.
However, kindly follow the steps mentioned in the article listed below, hope it helps.

  • Reinstalling Acrobat XI Upgrade to a new drive

    I had to purchase a new computer, how do I reinstall Acrobat XI Pro 'upgrade' to a new hard drive.
    Thank you

    Just try installing again. As it is an upgrade you'll also need to have to hand the serial number of the qualifying product. It may work, or it may complain that it is already installed. If that happens you just need to contact Adobe Customer Service and explain the problem.

    Hi davadlaw,
    You can install Acrobat on the new PC and use your Adobe ID to activate the software.
    The purchased subscription is linked to your Adobe ID.

    Hi radillard,
    Please make sure you are using the right serial number for the right version.
    You can message the serial number to me and i will check if it's right or not.
    Send me a private message. Do not post it here.
    If you dont know how to do that refer : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1184148
    If you believe the serial number is valid then please follow the solution 1 of the KB : http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-invalid-serial-number-acrobat.html

    I downloaded Acrobat Pro 9 to a new computer and once a download has been completed i cannot see a file, only a grey window

    The updates are available via this FTP site: ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/win/9.x/
    You need to download and install them in order.

  • Can I de-register installation of Acrobat Pro to move to new computer?

    I have two iMacs (running 10.6.8), each with an installation of Acrobat Pro 10.  I'm going to wipe the newer machine, reinstall the system software, and then use migration assistant to migrate the content of the older machine to the newer machine. I'm going to give the older machine away.
    Since I'm not sure that the registration on the old machine will successfully migrate to the new machine, it seems to me that the safest thing to do is to de-register Acrobat Pro on both machines, and then do a fresh installation on the new machine.
    The plan won't work, of course, if I can't de-register a copy of Acrobat pro in a way that lets me use the installation on another machine.
    TIA for any suggestions

    >>Did your acrobat come as part of the creative cloud or creative suite software?
    My answer is a little qualified, because I don't really know what the creative cloud or creative suite software are.
    Because of the way software marketing works, it's not always easy for a purchaser to know if he's bought a stand-alone product, as opposed to a suite or a "cloud," or a subscription to ongoing services to be defined in the future.
    With that uncertainty flagged, I think that the answer is clearly "no." 
    I've dug up my purchase confirmation email from the adobe store, dated 10 Feb 2011, and it says:
    >>Thank you for your purchase of downloadable Adobe products.
    >>For your records, we have included your serial numbers below.
    >>Adobe Acrobat X Pro (Mac,English)
    >>[serial number omitted]
    My purchase confirmation seems pretty clear that I bought "Adobe Acrobat X Pro (Mac,English)," a stand-alone product, and nothing else besides.
    Still hoping to learn how to de-activate my installations.
    TIA

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro 8 Installation Problem

    I've had Adobe Acrobat Pro 8 running fine for several years on XP Pro.  Our company rolled out upgraded hardware with a new image about a year ago, and I cannot successfully install 8 on any of the units.  Most recent issue, using CD, install went up to accepting end user license. I accepted and then installation froze and I had to End Program.  When I try to launch now, Getting Started splash screen comes up then program freezes and terminates.  It seems like a permissions/security issue, can anybody assist?

    I assume the new system is Win7 and most likely a 64-bit system. If so, you may just have to upgrade to AA XI. Folks have gotten AA8 to work on a Win7 32-bit system. You might be successful if you download the updates for AA8 and install those. I think it took at least AA8.1 to work with a 64-bit XP.

  • Installing Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 on a new laptop, but it doesn't accept my serial number

    Hello,
    On my old laptop I had installed and licensed Adobe Acrobat Pro 9. I retired my old laptop and bought a new one. I want to install Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 now on the new one. But seemingly my serial number is not accepted any more. That's what I did so far
    1. Downloaded Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-8-9-product-downloads.html
    2. Retrieved my serial number from Adobe ID (it matched what I have found out locally on my old computer)
    2. Started the installation
    3. Entered my serial number when asked for. Then I get a message "Invalid Serial Number"
    Who can help please?
    Best regards,
    Dr. Rolf Schlagenhaft (Freescale Semiconductor)

    Moving this discussion to the Acrobat installation & Update Issues forum.
    RolfSchlagenhaft there are no registered Adobe software titles under the account you are posting to the Adobe forums with.  You will want to attempt to locate the account which has your registered serial number.  You can find more details at Find your serial number quickly - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html.  If you need assistance locating the account which contains your serial number then please contact our support team at Contact Customer Care.
    Finally if you have a volume license for Acrobat 9 Professional then the installation files are only available at https://licensing.adobe.com/.  The installation files you downloaded are for the retail version of Acrobat 9 Professional.  This may be another cause of you receiving the message that your serial number is invalid.

    Hi! I'm trying to install Acrobat Pro 9, but it keeps telling me,

    If I click "ignore", it can not finish the installation and i have to cancel it.
    What can I do about this?

    Hi linzo123,
    This eror usually comes up when the installer is not able to access the necessary files from the media.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro XI - Installs in Slovenian and Not In English Even Though English Selected At Inst

    Hello:
          I have downloaded, installed, opened, closed, removed, cleaned registry and reinstalled Acrobat Pro XI three times and each time it installs in Slovenian and not ENGLISH (North American). English was the language that I down loaded from the Adobe website and it was the language that was clearly selected for the INSTALL.  Unfortunately, it always loads Slovenian.  Is there a registry hack or some simple way to change the language to ENGLISH (North American), since I cannot read Slovenian?
    Thanks!
    Doug

    Hi dshuck,

  • I have  a new laptop...i want to keep using my licened Adobe acrobat pro 9 on teh new machine

    how can I add a new computer to my acrobat pro license

    Hey,
    Firstly, you need to make sure that Acrobat pro 9 is compatible with the OS on your new laptop.
    In order to use the same license, you might need to deactivate Acrobat from old machine and then activate it on the new one with the same serial number.

  • Acrobat Pro XI installation/activation PLEASE HELP THANK YOU

    I downloaded and installed Adobe Acrobat Pro XI, completed the installation, but when trying to open the programme, it gives me an error saying that it cannot connect with the internet or verify my Adobe ID or that my clock might be set wrong. My clock is fine, so is my internet connection and I blocked my anti-virus just to make sure. Nothing works! It allows me to use the test version for now, but how can I help this? Thanks in advance!

    Hi michalr23191990,
    Could you please let me know what version of OS are you working on.
    Please note that after installing Acrobat XI, you need to sign in to Adobe.com using your Adobe ID credentials to activate the software.
    If possible, please share the screenshot of the error message so that I can analyze the exact issue.
    Hope to hear from you.

  • Acrobat Pro upgrade path 9.0.0 to 9.4.6 on MacOS

    I've already googled adobe cumulative update, etc, but all I can find are the incremental updates.
    I work in a small company and have been tasked with updating all our Acrobat Pro 9.0.0 users to 9.4.6.
    So far the only way I've found to do this is to download all 17 patches (9.1 > 9.1.1 > 9.1.2 > 9.1.3 > 9.2.0 > 9.3.0 > 9.3.1 > 9.3.2 > 9.3.3 > 9.3.4 > 9.4.0 > 9.4.1 > 9.4.2 > 9.4.3 > 9.4.4 > 9.4.5 > 9.4.6) and install them one at a time...
    There has got to be a better way to do this.
    I've seen on the Windows forum that they can slipstream the patches, but I haven't found anywhere to do this on MacOS.
    Our company only has a T1 line and it would take forever to run the updater from within Acrobat.
    Please can someone help me in the right direction, I am going to pull my hair out if I have to manually install all these patches on 20 computers!
    Thanks

    Thanks for your reply. Couple of other issues (other than the inablity to open the preferences as described in other discussions, please fix this first!!!)
    When the code insight pops up you lose keyboard focus.
