Acrobat Pro 9 shutdown on Mac

My Acrobat Pro 9 is shutting down every time I open the program. A dialog box says, that the program is a part of a Creative Suite and it needs an activation by open a CS-program such as Photoshop. I have tried the troubleshoot on this page http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-x-closes-launch-creative.html Nothing helps - ANY SOLUTIONS?

Did you purchase a single user version of Acrobat or did you purchase it as part of a suite? If it is part of a suite, then you need to run a program like Photoshop, it will transfer its activation to Acrobat. It cannot be installed separately from the rest of the programs.

  • Why can't I download trial for Acrobat Pro on my Mac?

    Why can't I download trial for Acrobat Pro on my Mac?  I get an error message.  I click the download:  "Install Adobe Download Assistant", then click on it, see Adobe AIR application instaler, then get "Sorry, and error has occurred.  This application cannot be installed because this installer has been mis-configured. Please contact the application author for assistance."   If I knew who the application author was, I'd contact him!  Thanks, Pete

    Hey PetaPete,
    There are some known issues when downloading Adobe Download Assistant which you can find at:
    Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant
    So, you might alternatively need to try downloading Acrobat from the link given below:
    http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-acrobat-xi-pro-standard-reader-direct-download-links.html
    Note:
    1) You need to stay on the Adobe trial page for the respective product that you're downloading. You should be signed in.
    2) Copy/ Paste trial link for the files that you're downloading from Prodesigntools on to the address bar of Adobe trial page and hit enter.

  • How do you increase the font size to bigger than 24, using the typewriter tool in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 for Mac?

    How do you increase the font size to bigger than 24, using the typewriter tool in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 for Mac?   Often I just want to label an item on a map that is in PDF and want to use a simple label rather than a Text Box for labeling, but have yet to find a way to increase the font size beyond 24.   Can someone help me with this? - JML

    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.

  • Acrobat Pro XI for Mac crashed and now says trial is over

    Earlier today I downloaded and installed Acrobat Pro XI for Mac on my MacBook Pro Retina 15-inch early 2013 running OS X 10.9.4. I compared two documents. While skimming the comparison document, Acrobat seemed unstable, e.g. when I tried to select text to copy Acrobat would freeze and show the  spinning pinwheel for a minute or two. When I finished skimming the comparison, I closed the file, and clicked "don't save," it crashed. When I restarted Acrobat, it told me the evaluation period was over.

    Hi rlauriston,
    It is unlikely for an application crash to eliminate the trial days usage.
    Did you check with a different Admin user account?

  • Adobe application manager won't recognize Acrobat Pro XI for Mac

    I purchased and downloaded Acrobat Pro XI for Mac.  The installation is successful, but when I attempt to open it the Adobe Application Manager interrupts and says "Serial Number you provided is valid, but a qualifying product could not be found on this computer."  It then says to "To use this serial number, you must own one of these qualifying products. Please choose the one you own an interest serial number."  Except Adobe Acrobat Pro XI is not listed.  I confirmed I purchased Adobe Acrobat XI Pro (Mac,English) and the serial number I have is correct.  Please advise.

    This error message comes when you try to activate the upgrade version which requires the previous version to activate.
    Please follow the steps to activate the upgrade version product.
    1. Install the porduct and enter the upgrade version serial number
    2. When it asks for the previous version serial number, enter the older version serial number
    3. You would be able to activate

  • I cannot install Adobe Acrobat pro on my mac running Yosemite.  Why?

    I was able to install Acrobat Reader, but when I tried to upgrade to Acrobat Pro on my mac, the Acrobat intaller just hangs there indefinitely.  I am running Yosemite.  What is the deal?

    Hi kctfsu,
    We would require the install logs to analyse the failue cause.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Select
    /var/log ▹ install.log
    from the hierarchical list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar. Then select the messages from the last installation or update attempt, starting from the time when you initiated it. If you're not sure when that was, start over and note the time. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.

  • I have acrobat pro on my lap top and recently installed acrobat pro on my Mac Mini, but the text recognition function is not working, does anyone have any advice on how to remedy this problem?

    I have acrobat pro on my lap top and recently installed acrobat pro on my Mac Mini, but the text recognition function is not working, does anyone have any advice on how to remedy this problem?

    On my laptop when I open up a pdf file and do a search for a particular
    text phrase it prompts me to run a character analysis.  Whereas on my mac
    mini, when I try to engage the same process it just says it couldn't find
    the phrase and doesn't even try and run a character analysis. I tried
    clicking on the tool bar and the recognize text tab but nothing there seems
    to do anything.
    In trying to figure out the issue on my own I noticed one thing.  I run a
    small law firm in St. Louis and I scan in all my files to which are
    subsequently emailed to my outlook account where I will save them as pdf's
    to their respective folders.  On my laptop when I open up an email from my
    scanner I see the image of a acrobat document next to the attachment
    paperclip symbol.  However, when I open up the same email on my mac mini I
    notice instead of an acrobat file image it shows a Preview file image (the
    program used to open up pdf's before I installed acrobat).
    Hope this helps!
    Sincerely,
    Jonathan McAllister

  • I purchased a download copy of Acrobat Pro XI for Mac from a reseller online for $199.00. Now I am suspicious that the reseller is less than trustworthy.  Could I purchase a copy from Adobe without losing the $199 that I already spent?

    I doubt it. The clue should be the price. Any time you see a copy available for less than from Adobe, I would be suspicious. You can inquire with the Adobe sales folks, but don't expect any credit. At this point, I would suggest just buying AA DC, rather than AA XI.

    Can you help?  Thanks!

    How:  MS Word to .pdf by Command P, hitting the PDF button, and then the button for "save as Adobe pdf"
    I didn't have this problem at all on prior versions of Adobe on my PC.   This isn't a Mac attack, is it?

  • PDF files created in Acrobat Pro X for Mac will not print correctly on Windows - text is missing

    I recently created a PDF file with pictures and texts in Acrobat Pro X. However, when I send it to my coworkers (who work on Windows computers), the printed file contains only images, and no text. I am using Century Gothic - a font that is installed on these Windows computers. When they open the files, they can see the text and everything exactly as it is meant to be. However, upon printing, the text disappears completely.
    We are using a Konica Minolta Bizhub printer to complete these printouts. When I print from my computer (the Mac), the files print perfectly on this printer. However, when using the same printer, a Windows user cannot print the text in the PDF's.
    Has anyone else run across this problem? I am thinking of trying to embed fonts, however it doesn't seem like it would make much of a difference (since the fonts show up fine on a Windows computer anyways). Is there a known issue with printing PDF's on a Konica Minolta printer?

    The archive format you used embeds all fonts, as does Press and Print type job settings. The standard job settings does not embed all fonts and that might be where the problem was.
