Acrobat X Pro install problem

I am trying to install Acrobat X Pro on a laptop that originally had Windows Vista and Acrobat 8 on it.  I deactivated and uninstalled Acrobat 8, and upgraded the OS to Windows 7 (32-bit) via an inplace upgrade (not a clean install of Windows). I am trying to install Acrobat X from the downloaded file AcrobatPro_10_Web_WWEFD.exe. The installation completes correctly but the installed program will not run, it does not open so the install has not been activated or registered. I have tried running as administrator, deleting & reinstalling, running AcrobatCleaner, renaming the cache (various tips from forums) but nothing helps.  Customer Service tells me it's not an activation issue, I still have a valid install left (I also have the program installed on a desktop machine running Windows 7 (64-bit) where it does run correctly). Any suggestions?

In place upgrade is not recommend step.
Inplace upgrade might be the reason for this if you can afford i would suggest install Windows 7 from scratch or may may also
uninstall Acrobat first from the computer and try windows Repair using the OS disc.
And try installing Acrobat again.
Please let me know the result.

Ajlan Huda.

  • Acrobat 9 Pro: Install Problem "not enough disk space"

    Hi:
    I just bought and downloaded Acrobat Pro 9 from the Adobe site and took the following steps:
    1) Uninstalled Acrobat Pro 7 & rebooted
    2) expanded installation copy onto Desktop
    3) Copied Install to CD
    4) Installed and chose both "Typical" & "Complete"
    5) Got a message (with each install try from step 3) box with my D drive (CD Drive!!) highlighted saying: "the highlighted volumes do not have enough disk space available for the currently chosen features..."
    NOTE: this is my CD drive highlighted as not having enough disk space, not my C drive (the drive being installed to. C drive has 23GB space. No matter what I did, it kept blocking my install beyond this point.
    I did this both from a CD and from the Desktop Install folder.
    I was able to successfully install it on my notebook -- Complete Install with no problems.
    I'd appreciate any ideas.
    Thanks!

    Are you sure you are not trying to install Acrobat onto your CD drive?

  • Acrobat X Pro install package does not remove Adobe Reader X

    I am using the Adobe Customization Wizard X to deploy our Acrobat X Pro install. In the transform I have both options checked to removed previous versions of Acrobat and Reader.
    The only version of Reader that does not get removed is Reader X. Has anyone else run into this? I've had version 8 and 9 get removed, but any system that has Reader X, keeps it, and Acrobat X Pro get's installed as well.
    I understand Adobe will support that configuration, but I'd prefer to have just one PDF reader
    Any input is appreciated

    Same problem in our environment. It seems, that Reader X is not understood as an old or minor version as it was in previous versions and therefore, both, Acrobat X and Reader X can coexist on a machine.

  • Acrobat X Pro Install Fails OS 10.7.4

    Any ideas what might be going on here?
    Thanks for looking!

    Restart with the Option key held down and use Lion's recovery partition to install onto that drive. Alternatively, clone your existing system to that drive, run DiskWarrior on the clone, restart from the clone, and use DiskWarrior to repair the internal drive.

    Hi Bruce,
    Please open registry by typing "regedit" in the Run window (Windows + R)
    Now, navigate to "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\acrobat\shell\open\ddeexec\application and changing the Key from "AcroviewA10"  to  "AcroviewR10.
    Now, try launching Acrobat and let me know if the issue resolves.

  • Acrobat XI Pro installed badly

    Acrobat XI Pro installed badly so uninstalled to reinstall but App Manager still thinks it's installed...
    how do I download and install?

    Resolved...
    DO NOT uninstall from the application uninstall option under
    /applications/Adobe Acrobat XI Pro/
    for so reason this removes the app from the Appliations folder but doesn't reference back to the App Manger
    DO uninstall from the '/applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers/Adobe Acrobat XI Pro'
    and select the clear preferences option
    then go to '/applications/Adobe Application Manger' the option will be set to 'install'
    then Launch Application from within the App Manager
    my Adobe Acrobat XI Pro no works as expected
    this is a resolution to a bad installation of Acrobat on MAC OS X Lion 10.7.5 64bit

  • Acrobat XI Pro Installed, Activated, Cannot Register

    Acrobat XI Pro (Mac) was purchased, installed (a valid license key was entered at time of installation), and activated. I did not register it at the time of installation because I did not then have the Adobe ID available. I have subsequently attempted to register the installation with Adobe using the proper Adobe ID.
    The first attempt was using the online registration page (https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/gpr/index.cfm) but that link yields either a blank page (in Firefox, Safari) or a 404 error (in Internet Explorer) on every computer (Mac and PC) and browser on which I have attempted to use it. The link to that page came from Adobe - Product Registration Options.
    Next I attempted to register from within the installed product. When I clicked on Help / Register, I received a message that my TRIAL would expire in 30 days! This would seem to me to indicate that the software was not activated even though I received an activation confirmation at the time I installed. When I used the option to enter the serial number, the window just closed without any other response and when I clicked Help / Register again, I got the same "trial will expire in 30 days" message.
    This installation is for a public library, which obtained a download link and license key from Tech Soup, which is a highly reputable, legitimate organization providing limited quantities of reduced-cost software to qualified non-profit organizations. It is for a perpetual standalone license, and it was not installed using Creative Cloud.
    I contacted Adobe Help via chat but they were not helpful.
    Acrobat XI Pro also was installed and activated on three Windows 7 PCs at the same time. Other than the failed attempts to register online using the link above, I have not yet attempted to register them from within the software.

    Yes, I installed 3 different valid license keys on 3 PCs and one valid license key on one Mac. Same problems originally described exist on all, except that I have subsequently been able to register all with Adobe. But I still have the bogus messages about my trial expiring in 30 days even though I installed with valid license keys and activation was confirmed at the time of installation.

  • Acrobat 9 Pro installation problem

    I have some problem while installing the acrobat 9 pro where download from adobe.com
    While I start to install to acrobat 9 pro, then there will be a window that will count from 00.00% to 100%, right. After counting to 100%, the window will close and there is no more further action for me to choose. It seems that the install has stopped after counting to 100%. How can I solve it?

    The most economical way is to return your purchase, get a refund, and then purchase the full version (somewhere?).

  • Acrobat X Pro launch problem

    I'm having the same problem I've seen others write about with CS6 and Acrobat X Pro not launching every now and then. I've tried the solution of deactivating in another CS6 application and reactivating, but it hasn't worked in the past.
    I'm running Windows 7 Professional. In Programs and Features, I have the following applications listed:
    Adobe Acrobat X Pro - English, Français, Deutsch
    Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Standard
    Adobe Creative Suite 5 Design Standard
    Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design Standard
    Each time I have the problem, I uninstall the first one that I listed above. I also click on the last (CS6) and uninstall only Acrobat X. Then I restart the system and reinstall CS6 Acrobat only.
    I presume I still have CS4 and CS5 listed because I upgraded from one to the next. I don't use the old versions anymore. Should I remove any of these permanently? Would that help solve the problem? Even though I uninstall the first one, it always comes back when I install Acrobat through the CS6 setup file.
    Thanks for any suggestions! This uninstall and reinstall is getting very annoying. I used to think it happened only once a month, which was bad enough, because it always interrupts my work flow to not be able to open a PDF file as usual. But then, after reinstalling this past weekend, Adobe updated Acrobat on my system last night, and this morning the problem occurred again, only a couple of days since the previous time. That's even more frustrating!

    I'm sorry I wasn't able to try your suggestion till today. I performed the first step: I downloaded the file Acrofix.zip, extracted the file and executed it. Everything appeared to work correctly. I wasn't having the problem today, so will I have to wait to apply the fix till Acrobat doesn't start again, or will running the fix today fix it for good?

  • Acrobat X Pro installed, but Help didn't

    I work at a large agency—about 2800 employees—and we cannot get any Help from Acrobat X Pro.
    But that isn't Adobe's fault. We upgraded from 9 to X at least 8 months ago. Ever since, whenever any one of us has hit "Help," we have gotten the same message:
    There's a good reason the browser can't find the file at that address. There aren't any files there. In fact, there is no /X folder in C:/Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Help/en_US/acrobat/.
    We have uninstalled and reinstalled from our NAL. Same result.
    Our IT folks say this is as it should be—that all Adobe help is now online, so there are no files to be installed on our computers. Funny thing, though: All help has been online for a while. So we found an installation of Acrobat 9 Pro, copied the /9 folder from /Adobe/Help/en_US/acrobat into my installation of Acrobat X Pro, renamed the folder /X instead of /9, and voila! We were taken to the correct Help topic for our context, regardless of what we were doing. Everything worked.
    Except that we were taken to the help for  9, not X.
    Still, IT insists that there are no files on their CDs, there are no files to be downloaded from Adobe's site, and there should be no such files—indeed, no /Help folder—on our C: drives.
    And they just closed a 7-month-old Help ticket with no progress on the fix.
    Some of us who are affected are on Windows 7; others are on Windows XP. It seems like that shouldn't matter, though.
    Is there a place I can point the IT guys to so they will find the solution to this problem?

    Moving this discussion to the Acrobat Installation & Update Issues forum.
