Acrobat Pro is removed after Win. 7 (64 bitOS) does updates! Why?

Acrobat Pro is completely removed from my programs each time Win7 does its updates. Even the Reader won't open any of my pdf's. What is causing this. I have to reinstall Acrobat every time!

i'm not sure what update problem you're having but you should not have acrobat and reader installed at the same time. uninstall reader, run the cleaner (http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html) and install acrobat pro.
then if you have an update problem, indicate what update - adobe update (if yes, what programs are updating), win7 update?

Lately in Acrobat Pro Ver 9 for Win 7 the menu bar (File, Edit, View, Document etc) disappears when I move the window . . only happens when I have a pdf file open . . everything worked fine until a few days ago . . F9 fixes the problem until I move the window again . . I realize my version is old so I tried tried downloading XI reader and having the same issue . . any help would be appreciated

Hi Ernestprinter,
Check if you have multiple Java versions installed on your computer.
Try clean boot http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
Also i would suggest uninstall security software and install it back.
Currently you may use F9 key to restore Menu bar.

Acrobat Pro 8 Crashes after 7 seconds.

Does anyone know which of these updates causes Acrobat Pro 8 Crashes after 7 seconds.
My OS is Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1:
Thank you.
Harry.

AA8 is not certified for Win7, and particularly the 64-bit version. Several folks have been successful on the install on 32-bit systems. I have heard of 2 folks who claimed success on the 64-bit system. To have a change, first check to be sure you have Acrobat, Distiller, and the Adobe PDF printer on your system. Since Acrobat is not opening, go to http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows and download the updates (start with the latest and work backwards. Each update screen will tell you the previous one needed for the update (you may be able to skip 2 or so). Once done start the updates from the bottom up. You should do the updates through 8.3.1. Generally speaking you only need to do a reboot after the final update installed, not for all the updates.
The updates are definitely required for the 64-bit system and may be the issue you are having. There is no way to be sure if the install will work, only the comments by others that have tried.
During the installs and updates, be sure you are logged in as the adminstrator and have anti-virus disabled.

I have Acrobat Pro 8.0 on my MacBook -- how do I update?

For updates to higher versions of 8, you would go to Help>Update (assume this works on a MAC as with a PC). You could also download the updates from Adobe - Acrobat : For Macintosh.

There is more after this but the summary is that it doesn't boot. Is anyone having this problem also? And if so how did you fix it.? I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Acrobat but with no success.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Michael,
Thanks for your reply. However how can you upgrade when the program won't boot? I tried downloading again from Adobe but the version that comes over is 9.0. Is there anyway to force a load? Or anyway for Adobe to push me 9.3.1?
Regards,
David
First try removing preference and or .plist files for Acrobat. Then when you get working try this tip below that might help when you update the application and it fails.
I've come across this in these forums That may or may not solve the update issue for "some" people:

Problems Installing Acrobat Pro 9.0 after Hard Drive Crashed

I am having to reinstall my Creative Suite CS 5.0 on my MacBook Pro after the replacement SSD crached and I had to reinstall the suite back onto my orginal hard drive. Everything in the Creative Suite installs with no problem except Acrobat Pro 9.0 and Distiller. After it is copied, I open it and after a few seconds I am presenting with the following message...
"Suite Product Activation Needed - Adobe Acrobat was installed as part of a suite. To enable Adobe Acrobat, please start another component of this suite (such as Adobe Photoshop)."
I have tried opening Photoshop first and then opening Acrobat, but I get the same message.
I am at a lose as to what to do.
Thanks for any help.

Matthew,
As you stated the CS5 version has a separate disk for Acrobat 9 and a separate serial number for Acrobat 9. Unfortunately the error message you are seeing is usually seen when launching Acrobat shipped with either CS4 or CS5.5 as the activation of the product is tied to first launching another suite product. Try removing the Inprogress key from the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\Inprogress.
Of course only do this after backing up your registry.

Acrobat Pro X Failed After Latest Update Downloaded

I have been using Acrobat Pro X on my Windows 7 machine successfully for almost 2 years now. After the latest update downloaded 2 days ago, Acrobat X will no longer function properly and will not open. What to do?

AcroTray is running in the background. I have attempted to create pdfs from Word and Adobe Illustrator (AI) files two different ways: First by using the Print function in in Word and AI. It takes me as far as selecting a file name for the new pdf, but never completes the process. Secondly, by using the Create PDF function in Acrobat. Again, after selecting a file name and hitting Save the process ends without creating the new pdf. Any thoughts on this?

Lost toolbar (Typewriter) when reinstall acrobat pro 7 (CS2) under Win 7

Hi There,
Recently, my computer has beed updated to Win 7 from Windows XP. When I reinstalled Acrobat pro 7 (CS2), toolbar "typewriter" did not show up.
Please help to find out the way to fix it. Thank you very much.

I don't have AA 7 available anymore. It may be that you have a selection of tools that can be made, I don't remember. Without finding a machine with AA 7 on it, I can't help much more on that. As far as the printer, you have to install a PS printer (either from Adobe or maybe a color HP PS printer). Then change the name to Adobe PDF and the port to FILES. Then, when you print you will be saving to file. The file created must be opened in Distiller to create the PDF. I have tried this on both 332 and 64-bit versions of Win7. There may be other features that vary and I did not do extensive testing. Maybe one of your systems is 32-bit and the other 64-bit and that might cause the problem. Keep in mind that AA 7 is a 32-bit process. You also need to install the updates that are at ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/. Apparently you were successful with the installation, though the activation server is no longer available for AA7 -- there is an alternative in that case, but you don't seem to need it.

Why is Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 crashing after my upgrade to Mountain Lion?

OK. The day I upgraded to Mountain Lion was the day that Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 stopped working for me. I have tried re-installing Pro and now I'm getting the error message that "Licensing for this product has stopped working." I have been all over the Adobe boards and everything is written towards fixing problems pre-Mountain Lion.
I tried a License Recovery Launcher and the problem there is that Power PC are no longer supported. Does the fact that Power PC apps are no longer supported have anything to do with this or are their other issues? Does anyone have any constructive solutions?
I can't believe that there is not more discussions about this so any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!

Mine is crashing, too, and I must assume that the 9.5.2 update is the cause. Version 9.5.1 of Acrobat Pro worked perfectly well on 10.8.2 in every aspect. My crashes occur on trying to save as "Adobe PDF Files, Optimized".
I think, it is not OSX at fault here but the Adobe update; I found a (PC related) post on the adobe forums. Hopefully a fix will be issued by Adobe. I wonder if it could be a font issue?

Adobe Acrobat Pro X lost after uninstall of CS5.5 - now cannot reinstall

I installed Creative Cloud. Then Deactivvated and uninstalled CS5.5. I lost Acrobat Pro X and cloud installer (which is the only option to download and install) still says "installed". Do I have to uninstall and reinstall the whole suite to get this right? If so, Adobe needs to warn users to uninstall CS5.5 (etc) BEFORE install Creative Cloud. Jeez.

It seems that the uninstallation of acrobat was not successful and hence CC shows it as "Installed".
If you have uninstalled CS5.5 completely, you can also try using this cleaner tool : https://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html to clean all the remaining traces of CS 5.5 (use it carefully and chooe options carefully).

Getting Blank EULA (License Agreement Screens) when I try to edit or when I close Acrobat Pro 11 on Mac. Have done all the updates to latest CC.

I have been trying to get Acrobat Pro 11 installed and operating for the last two days with this error. I have unistalled and re-installed. Updated to the latest CC app, to no avail.
I see this was an error in 2012 but there is no options in the new CC Apps to "disable" then "re-enable" the app.
Adobe, how do I get this working properly ?

Not just on editing or quoting . Comes up after ~30 seconds. Jusot asks me to accept the license agreement but there is nothing in the main part of the form. And quits out when I "Accept". TOTALLY UNUSABLE!
I'm resorting to reading PDF's with Preview!
Am running MacOSX 10.9.3.
The other Adobe apps I installed (Photoshop, Premier) seem to work fine.
Common Adobe give me a solution, and just don;t tell me re-install I;ve tried that already!

Acrobat Pro "save as" function in the file menu does not show the current directory of the file

I have installed CC but Acrobat Pro gives me headaches.
The "save as" function in the file menu does not show the current directory of the file but something I have worked on in the past.
It forces me to navigates through my hard disk for this very straightforward thing in normal conditions. I precise: Acrobat is the only software reacting like that.
I use Windows7 professional 64bits.

I use what seems to be the latest version available on the Cloud:
To illustrate my point, I open a directory with explorer and double-click on the only PDF in there:
So here it is, open:
When I do a "Save as", it takes me to a totally different place on the disk!
Very annoying...
Thanks for your time!

I purchased and downloaded Acrobat Pro XI. After the pop-up requesting the language I got a message "The installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists..."

The full message was "The installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify this is a valid Windows Installer package."

OK, I got around this error by extracting the files to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe Acrobat XI"
Now I get a different error "1325.kstanwood is not a valid short file name". I'm not certain why it's even trying to create such a file name.

Why won't my macbook pro turn on after i reset it for the updates

It was going to take around five hours to get the new udates , but this moring i was using the computer and it stoped working. The updates showed a message that read an error has occured in red letters, i could not use anything on it. a message popped up that said to reset the computer but now it will not turn on. What should i do

Arce jr,
which model MacBook Pro do you have, and which version of OS X is installed on it?

The Update could not be installed (patch apply failed) this keeps happening after it has told me to update Why ?

while running Firefox it comes on the screen saying security update so after it ties to update this comes on the screen "The Update could not be installed (patch apply failed)" I am running Firefox 6.0 and don't seem to have any other issues with it but it asks me several times to do this update but still says it cant do it
I am running windows vista

If files already have been downloaded then remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder.
You can also delete the active-update.xml file.
