Acrobat Pro 8, 9 and X installed. Can I uninstall 8 and 9?

I migrated my old MacBook Pro to my new MacBook Pro in January (OS X 10.7.4).  I now have 3 versions of Acrobat Pro on my Mac, Pro 8, Pro 9 and Pro X.  Can I uninstall 8 and 9 without having to re-install X?

Hi Robin,
As Bill said, you should be able to uninstall Acro 8 & Acro 9 without having to reinstall AcroX.  Each of the versions is fairly well isolated from each other on the Mac.
Let us know if you have any trouble!

  • Unable to install updates for Acrobat Pro 9.0 and MS Office 2008

    This is a followup post to a nagging problem last fall that prevented successful installation of product version updates for Acrobat Pro 9.0 and Microsoft Office 2008 running under OS X v10.6.5. Days of fruitless, circular pursuit of solutions from both Adobe and Microsoft tech support provided no recognition of the problem…let alone an answer.
    Fortunately, a few helpful techs at a nearby Apple Store yielded results. They were initially as perplexed as their counterparts but it gratified to this customer when each recognized the problem was real and was sufficiently motivated to track down a solution.
    By process of elimination it was suggested: i) reinstall the original Snow Leopard 10.6.0 upgrade disk; ii) download the v10.6.5 combo update to bring the OS current; and iii) download and install the Acrobat and Office updates. It worked—perfectly—the first time.
    The consensus seems to be that a combination of many successive installations of OS and product version updates eventually produced conflicting instructions resulting in stalemate.
    Remarkably, it hasn't been necessary (or appealing) to perform a clean install since some point prior to the introduction of OS X. Nor has it since. A 'rollback' to the original Snow Leopard version with one subsequent update to the current OS version appears to have cleared out a nest of remnant conflicting instructions. Kudos to Apple's tech support and Occam's Razor.

    Hello,
    You can download the Acrobat 9 updates manually by following link:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows
    However, PDF Maker plugin would not be enable in Outlook, as Acrobat 9 is not support with Office 2013.
    Please refer to following compatibility chart:
    Compatible web browsers and PDFMaker applications
    You need to have Acrobat 11 to get PDF maker plugin in Office 2013.

  • I Just downloaded Acrobat Pro after trial and now I can't open any files...

    I Just downloaded Acrobat Pro after trial and now I can't open any files, when I click on icon I get this message: the last time you opened Acrobat, it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows.  Do you want to try to reopen its window again? If you choose not to reopen windows, you may have to open and position the window yourself.  There are 2 options: Don't Reopen or Reopen  Either choice leads to a window that pops upend says please wait while we launch Acrobat and then window just closes quickly.

    Hi mbt6833,
    You may goto control panel and then go to program and features.
    Select the Acrobat pro and chose the option change from the top. Fallow the onscreen instruction a windows will pop up where you need to choose repair.

  • I have adobe acrobat pro for windows and it is freezing up when I try to convert a word file to pdf... I have tried to get this done six ways from Sunday but it is just not working... help!  Chris.

    I have adobe acrobat pro for windows and it is freezing up when I try to convert a word file to pdf... I have tried to get this done six ways from Sunday but it is just not working... help!  Chris.

    It would be helpful to know what version of Acrobat, WORD, and operating system.
    Without that info, I would suggest at this point to open your WORD file and then go to the print menu and print to file using the Adobe PDF printer. Open the created file in Distiller and see if you get a PDF. If so, check to see if AcroTray is running in the background.
    You say you tried many ways. It would help to know what you tried and what worked or did not work, and at what point the failure occurs.

  • 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.

  • Acrobat products (Acrobat Pro, PS CS6 and LR 5) will not install

    I have a new Macbook Pro Retina 15 system. I used the Mac Sync to copy files to the system.
    Adobe products (Acrobat Pro XI, PS CS6 would not run. Note, I am NOT a coud user, I OWN these products.
    I remvoed the products. I tried running the installer and it fails. Non-decript error says to contact support at Adobe. I tried running the support advisor. It sees no issues and says to contact Adobe.
    When I download new installers for the products from Adobe licensing the install fails. Does not matter if I use the key or install as a trial.
    What can I do to get the apps working again?

  • Acrobat Pro 7.0 does not install on Windows 7, how can I get a version that does?

    I recently downloaded and tried installing the non-activation version of Adobe Acrobat Pro 7.0 on my Windows 7 PC.  After researching the installation error I read some posts that Acrobat 7.0 does not install on Windows 7.  What are my options?

    AA 7 will install, but it will not run very cleanly. A lot of things require workarounds. However, it is strongly recommended that you upgrade to AA XI for use on Win7 or Win8. AA 7 is not fully compatible and playing with workarounds is not a great use model. Looks like the price just came down also. You will have to purchase the full version. The upgrade version requires at least AA 9.

  • Application Virtualization 4.6 (SoftGrid) Acrobat Pro 9.2 and Office 2007

    I'm actually trying to sequence Acrobat Pro 9.2 together with Office 2007 in a dynamic suite composition with Application Virtualization 4.6 RC.
    I can sequence both applications and deploy them to the client. Everything seems to work fine, except the Acrobat plug-in in office. When I start Word or another office application, i can see the tab "Acrobat" and can choose the option to create a PDF of the actual document. If the Office application was started the first time since the logon, the PDF is going to be created as it should... no error. If I'd like to create a second PDF an error occures, saying that Adobe Acrobat can't be used because it's not activated (Its a volume license installation). The same error when I close and start the office application again. When I log off and log in, it works again the first time. Starting Acrobat without Office (independent) everything works and no such error appears. The Problem is that, the virtual application resides active (in use) in the App-V console after closing (maybe thats a normal behavior when two packages are dependent in a dynamic suite composition...).
    I think there's a problem with the combination of App-V and the licensing system used by Adobe. Is it possible to install the licensing component seperately from Acrobat (during the sequencing a FlexNet service were identified? I could not find appropriate setup files to do so... Maybe its possible to solve the problem by installing the licensing component localy on the computer and then the virtualized application uses this component to check the license status or whatever is going to be checked...
    Thanks for any hint...

    The first problem is probably a permissions issue. Run Repair Permissions from the Disk Utility. For the second see this
    Announcement: Known Acrobat Issues under Snow Leopard
    Hide Details
    (1) The Adobe PDF Printer module does not work under OS X.6. Please see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html to find out how to create Adobe Quality PDFs under Snow Leopard.
    (2) Opening files from the finder, including files authored by Adobe applications, may not open them in the original authoring application. Omitting a file extension from the file name will increase the likelihood of this happening. See http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/511/cpsid_51110.html for more information.
