Acrobat 9 Standard, error 148:3

Acrobat 9 Standard, I continually get error 148:3. Telling me to uninstall and reinstall. This is unreasonable

One post talks about this error being a license error. The post talks about going to Start and entering services.msc to get the services window. Go down and check the the FLEXnet License service is running. That may be the issue, not sure. The Adobe link for information is at http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-licensing-stopped-windows.html. Is this a stand-alone installation or something in the "cloud?" I am just referring you to what I found, not necessarily the correct answer (I have not tried it).

Acrobat XI Standard: error "serial number upgrade" [was:questions]

Just purchase Acrobat XI Standard and when I went to open the program for the first time an alarm come up "Serial number upgrade" Do I need more software to run XI?

Did you buy a Full version or an Upgrade version?
If you bought an Upgrade version, do you already own a previous version of Acrobat? If not, then you cannot use the Upgrade version. You need the Full version.

Acrobat 9 Pro Error 148:3 You cannot use this product at this time

Am running XP Pro SP3 with Acrobat 9.0 Pro Extended. Until I installed Comodo antivirus software yesterday, Acrobat worked fine. Now when I open Acrobat I get an error message similar to this: “You cannot use this product at this time. You must repair this problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or contact your IT . . . (148:3).” Then when I click OK, Acrobat shuts down.
I’ve tried the Licensing fixes found at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405970.html but fixes didn’t work. I uninstalled and reinstalled. Now when I try to install updates, it looks like it’s installing but at the end the installation says it failed.
Any ideas on how to resolve my problem? Thank-you.

Bill, you're correct and thanks for your help. In my particular case, Acrobat Pro was working fine until I upgraded Comodo (from the green/white shield to the red shield). Thnking it was an Acrobat problem, I uninstalled Acrobat Pro and reinstalled Acrobat Pro with Comodo turned off. Still got the "148:3" error msg. Solution, I uninstalled Comodo and restarted the computer. Then updated Acrobat Pro, there were two updates. Restarted computer. Then installed Comodo. Everything now works fine.

OFFICE 365 is a cloud version of OFFICE 2013. Full compatibility with Acrobat requires an updated Acrobat XI. You will likely have to store the file and then open in AA 9. To create a PDF you will have to print to the Adobe PDF printer or use the MS plugin that has several issues.

Adobe Acrobat XI Standard 11.0.10 silent install failing with error 1603

Hello
I just updated my AIPs for Adobe Acrobat Pro 11 Pro and Standard. The Pro silent install is working fine. But I cannot get the Standard install to run on Windows 7 or WIndows 8. I have gone over every detail that I can think of or find on forums.
I use the Adobe Customization Wizard XI and choose the basic stuff to create my transform. I don't generally enter a serial number in the customization setup but I tried that and the installation did appear to complete successfully. But when I tried to open Acrobat it did not work. Processes like PDapp.exe where running in a loop but never stopped. Without a serial I get the errors below and the install fails almost immediately. I have recreated the API and transform a few times hoping it would help.
Installing with the following line msiexec /i "%~dp0AcroStan.msi" TRANSFORMS=AcroStan.mst /qb /L*v c:\acrobat.log I get an error message that just says "error".
Application Event logs
Product: Adobe Acrobat XI Standard -- error.
Windows Installer installed the product. Product Name: Adobe Acrobat XI Standard. Product Version: 11.0.10. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: Adobe Systems. Installation success or error status: 1603.
When I run the AcroStan.msi by itself the installation completes successfully so it would appear the issue is in customization process or the .mst file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

I'm assuming that verbose logging is accomplished by adding /L*v c:\acrobat.log ? No, I do not have CustomAction AAMIU_Install.196A45B3_0387_4DF9_9420 in my log file. The only items referencing 1603 are below.

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.

In Adobe Acrobat X Standard, our user used to be able to resize drawings to 8.5 x 10, it stopped working yesterday. It allows her to do this without an error but the size does not change?

Try unmounting the volume on your iMac using Disk Utility. Then mount it again. You may need to reboot the laptop or relaunch its Finder process (using the Force Quit window) after remounting the drive on your iMac. Remember that no process may be accessing any files on the drive you plan to unmount, or the unmount will fail. Unmounting and remounting an external drive on my iMac made it become visible on my MacBook Pro after it had disappeared.

Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard on a PC using Vista - "Run Tine Error & Abnormal Program Termination".

Trying to use Acrobat 9 standard on a PC running VISTA business, but it crashes immediately and fails and the error message states Run Time Error and Abnormal program termination. Lots of stuff on the internet about Adobe and run time errors but nothing seems to be working and even Adobe's own advise on subject not helpful. Any step by step suggestions most welcome.

Have you tried troubleshooting the issue from the KB doc link as mentioned below:

Acrobat 9 Standard - 'Unable to find "Adobe PDF" resource files error'!

Hello,
This is my first post here. YES, I have searched for same/similar threads, but none of the offered "fixes" work.
I have 5 Dell Optiplex 740 computers running XP Pro, SP3. All have current Dell BIOS of 2.2.4. Most are current with Microsoft security patches/ updates, as they are set for auto update. 4 are running Acrobat Standard 8.1.2. 1 is running Acrobat 9 Standard.
All 5 are experiencing the following error message:
I have tried the repair option; I have uninstalled and reinstalled; I have uninstalled and installed v.9 on the one, and I am still receiving the error message. I am at wits end and need help!
Is there an expert around here that could offer any assistance?
I can provide more information, just tell me what additional you need!
Thanks for any and all assistance you can offer!
~Kelly

I get a similar error, but only under the following conditions: I must be printing to the Adobe PDF printer and printing multiple pages, one at a time, and then it only happens on the second and subsequent print attempts. That is to say, the first page prints just fine and this just started yesterday afternoon. The specific file referenced in the error does not exist, but why would it work the first time and not the second? Since it only started yesterday, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling this morning, but it made no difference. I don't see anything under print properties like job-options and it is a single user, unshared printer. Thoughts? I understand the same thing is happening in at least one other of our locations, but no one there has looked into it yet. This is a BIG problem for me, however, and I need to find an answer quickly.

I receive error 1311 when trying to install Acrobat 9 Standard

I am having a similar problem. I purchased Acrobat 9 standard online. installed on laptop and desktop. Worked fine for a year. Then I tried the 9 Pro trial on my desktop, and decided I didn't want or need it, I declined it. Ever since then, my Acrobat 9 standard does not load. I get error message 1311 - set up files not found, and Adobe support says they have none for this. Sent me to a forum. Can you help, Mr. Walter, sir? My laptop version still functions, but not the desktop version. I even tried the "repair" to no avail.

Error 2148073513 When Attempting To Digitally Sign In Acrobat 11 Standard

I'm attempting to use Acrobat 11 Standard to digitally sign a PDF document with a 2048 bit certificate from our internal certificate authority, and I'm receiving the following error:
Error encountered while signing:
The Windows Cryptographic Service Provider reported an error:
The requested operation is not supported.
Error Code: 2148073513
The operating system is Windows 7 Enterprise x64. When I remove Acrobat 11 Standard and install Acrobat 9 Standard on the same Windows 7 system, I am able to successfully sign the document using the same certificate that was giving the error with 11. Also we have been using Acrobat 9 on Windows XP with these same certificates for a long time and never encountered issues with digitally signing.
Any ideas of what might be causing this issue?
Thanks in advance
Josh

Hi Josh,
The error message comes from Windows (not Acrobat), but Acrobat 11 is probably asking Windows to do something that it can't. What it is I don't know because the error message is too vague. One thing we can do is to take Windows out of the picture and see if you can sign when Acrobat accesses the digital ID itself as opposed to asking Windows to do the work. This is a two step process, first, export the digital ID from Windows into a file, and then import the file into Acrobat (it's not really an import, but I'll leave it at that for now).
Step 1 - Export the Digital ID
Launch Acrobat
Select the Edit > Preferences menu item
Select Internet from the Categories list box
Click the Internet Settings button
Select the Content tab on the Internet Properties dialog
Click the Certificates button
Highlight your digital ID and then click the Export button
Click the Next button on the Welcome panel of the Certificate Export Wizard
Select the Yes, export the private key radio button, and then click the Next button. If this radio button is disabled you can stop here and let me know that the private key is not exportable
Select the Include all certificates in the certification path if possible checkbox & the Export all extended properties checkbox and then click the Next button. Only select the top and bottom checkboxes, DO NOT delete the private key!
Create passwords for the file and then click the Next button. You will need this password to sign with so make sure it is something you can remember.
Pick a file name and location. Browse for a location you can remember as you will need to know where you put the file in order to use it to sign with. Click the Next button.
Click the Finish button
Click the OK button on the confirmation dialog
Click the Close button on the Certificates dialog
Click the OK button on the Internet Properties dialog
Step 2 - Add the file to Acrobat
Select Signatures from the Categories list box
Click the More button in the Identities & Trusted Certificates group box
Click the Add ID toolbar button
Click the Next button
Click the Browse button
Navigate to and select the file you exported above and then click the Open button
Enter the password you used above and then click the Next button
Click the Finish button
You will see two items in the list box with the same name. Highlight the one whose Storage Mechanism is "Digital ID File"
Click the Usage Options toolbar button and then select Use for Signing
Close the Digital ID and Trusted Certificate Settings
Click the OK button on the Preferences dialog
The next test is to see if you can sign a file. Please let me know if it works or not.
Thanks,
Steve
