Adobe 9 standard won't launch

I have Adobe 9 standard (9.4).  I have been using it for several years.  Suddenly, it won't launch.  Attempting to launch it results in several error messages:  "missing file C:\dell\N878J"", Missing "Acrodist.exe"' and Adobe XMP.dll is missing.  
Since this program was pre-installed, I do not have recource to the installation disk.  I was going to install a trial verson of Acrobat Pro XI but i cannot uninstall the older Acrobat 9--which is required, according to the Acrobat XI installer.
I tried Acrofix.  It returned a 07 error code.
Can you tell me where to get copies of the missing files?  or how to either reinstall or remove the older Acrobat 9.4--there is no installer or uninstaller in the Acrobat 9 file.
Thanks.

I recommend the Acrobat forums. CreatePDF is something quite different. You should also contact the PC supplier for your install disk, it's their job to provide it to you. Good luck!

  • Adobe Photoshop CS5 won't launch after Mac update

    I updated my mac yesterday to Maverick and now Adobe Photoshop CS5 won't launch.  Can you tell me what files I need to delete to get it to launch.  I tried reinstalling it, and that didn't help.
    thanks

    It's very strange.  When I try to double click on the program to open it,
    it's like I'm doing nothing.  it sort of blinks like it's going to open but
    does nothing.  That's the way it is if I control click and try to open too.
    I did try to reboot.  Is there something I could delete in the Library
    file or something?
    thanks

  • Adobe Reader 9 Won't Launch

    I installed Adobe Reader 9 and it won't open.  Running XP Pro.  Tried to open pdfs through IE9 and Google Chrome.  Didn't work.  Reader just won't launch.  Does anyone have any solution(s)??

    H20 - I solved my problem. 
    I can't say what exactly was the cause, because later this PM - I did everything I could think of - system restore, a FULL Virus Scan, I used Malwarebytes - nothing solved it.
    Until I used Norton Power Eraser - it's advertised to find things that average virus scans can't - and in this case, I beleive it was a corrupt boot record on my machine?   Anyway - I ran it, the whole thing took another 30 minutes or less - and my Acrobat is now back in business.  A frustrating journey - but a statisfying end.
    I am NOT endorsing this my any means - your experience may be different.  I take no responsibility on what else could be affected by its use.   But I would not be using the fourum properly if I didn't pass along my experience.  Check out the rating on the page BEFORE you decide to use.    Some other posters could have an opinion as well.
    Here is a link - Good luck!

  • Adobe cs6 illustrator won't launch

    Hi I"m trying to launch my Adobe CS6 Illustrator and it won't launch. It looks like its reading the system fonts and that's where it gets too. I tried deleting preferences doesn't seem to have done anything. All other applications are working fine.

    Suitcase might have a function to check your fonts. But I would suggest you update it first to the most recent version http://www.extensis.com/de/font-management/suitcase-fusion/
    Illustrator doesn't behave well with font management anyway. Let alone dated versions.

  • Adobe Reader XI won't launch, can't download or open existing PDF files.

    Running Windows 7 and have had no trouble with PDF files until few weeks ago.  Now Adobe Reader Xi won't execute and I can't download or open existing PDF files using Adobe.  Interesting that I can open existing PDF files unsit PaintShop Pro X4 but not in Adobe.  Have unistalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader XI several times with no change in problem.

    You can try using Windows Explorer to navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement

  • Adobe xi standard won't download from store

    purchased adobe xi standard  (upgrade).
    I'm trying to download it to a new win7 pc.
    from store, I follow directions, click download but it hangs and never sarts the download.
    I have downloaded adobe flash, the freeadove reader with no problem
    I tried turning off firewall.   and using Chrome browser,
    tried downloadeng from an old XP PC w/ IE8.   all options hang the same way.
    the akamai downloader never comes up and appears to start.
    I did a direct trial download of xi Pro, but my key does not work with that download.
    I assume standard andPro downloads are different from "standard" and there is not standard trial evidently.that I could find.   ALl of the standard trial links untimap[tely lead to a Pro download???
    also, instructions say to use a direct download if other fails, but I cant see any direct download links on my "my orders" page.   ANy ideas?
    Somehow I need to get a xi standard download that my serial number works on.

    Hi pwvan57,
    Welcome to the Community!
    You are right, everyt link of Standard leads to Pro download, the download of Standard will be available onto your account depending upon the license you have.
    If you have bought a single user license then please sign in to https://www.adobe.com/account.html and click on My Orders history, you will see the product listed and if you expand it the small "Download" button will be there.
    If you have a Volume user license then sign in to https://licensing.adobe.com/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMw==)/bc/bsp/sap/zavllogin/login.htm and click on Licenses>> Downloads to download the product.
    Thanks!

  • Adobe Application Manager won't launch

    Running Mac OSX Lion on Macbook Pro with Adobe Creative Cloud. When  I try to launch Acrobat Pro, Application Manager tries to launch, but no options come up. Happens every time I try to launch Acrobat, so Acrobat won't work. Suggestions? I noticed there is no uninstall for Application Manager. Can I just trash it and try to reinstall?

    Hi Dave,
    Has Acrobat X ever worked? I wouid try running the uninstaller for Acrobat from  Applications > Utilities > Adobe Installers if avaiable, rebooting, and then launching the Adobe Application Manager first from within Applications and then reinstalling Acrobat.

  • Adobe Reader XI won't launch/read pdfs. No error message.

    All of a sudden, reader xi wont launch, read pdfs, or download pdfs online. When I double click the program shortcut (or pdf I want to open) the mouse makes the "loading" animation....but nothing happens. No error message, just refuses to work. Re-installing temporarily fixed the problem. However, the next time i turn on my machine the problem returns! I'm at the point where I have to reinstall adobe everytime I turn on the computer .
    Any advice would be welcome.
    I'm on windows 7 btw

  • Adobe application manager won't open

    I just subscribed to Adobe Cloud CC , but my download won't work because Adobe application Manager won't launch.
    Any suggestions ?

    The Adobe Application Manager is normally started from Photoshop menu Help>Updates.  Is this what you referring  to or are you referring to the Creative Cloud desktop application?

  • Adobe CC won't launch, Photoshop freezes immediately after launch, help!

    Hello, I would appreciate any suggestions on how to solve this issue. It started with Photoshop CC freezing, as in spinning color wheels of death immediately after launch. I have tried launching with a file, without a file, from Lightroom, independently, nothing works, but spinning wheel until I force quit.
    So I tried to update, thinking it wpould help. Adobe CC won't launch at all, no error message, no force quit, just nothing happens. I tried uninstalling both, but unistall just hangs, bouncing in the dock for all eternity until I force quit. The Adobe Application Manager will not launch, and also hangs until a force quit.
    The machine is a MacPro OSX 10.7.5 with 3.2 GHz Quad-Core 8GB with no other issues. I have done no updates, no new programs, apps, fonts or plugins in weeks, and the Adobe CC stuff has been working until two days ago. No other issues with the machine I have noticed, and Lightroom and PS CS6 are both working as usual. Restarts have no effect.
    I have attempted to start PS CC using command-shift-option thinking the preferences might be causing an issue, but got the same hanging result. Renaming the OOBE file has not worked. Help!

    Have you had any luck with this? I've been experiencing the same since Creative Cloud started... happens with all creative cloud apps. I removed the creative cloud desktop app as that was the most troublesome and would often hang everything after waking from sleep. Helped a little but waking from sleep still creates the issue and I have to restart the computer. If I do get an app working and I go to update through the help menu, that app hangs. I've read in other discussions that you need to change the user (which is ******** and very time consuming) but like an idiot I did that and... surprise, suprise, same problem. Never seen adobe come back on this one.

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 Won't launch

    My motherboard died.  I put a new motherboard in and have been reinstalling the OS (Windows 7 Professional) and reinstalling all of the programs.  I successfully re-downloaded Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 and entered my license key and it installs.  When I launched it, it came up to the welcome screen, but when I try to open the Organizer or the Editor, it won't launch!  I switched to startup in the Organizer versus the Welcome Screen and now it won't launch at all!
    I uninstalled the program and tried reinstalling.  It installed, but the program will not launch!

    Hi,
    Try starting the two applications directly by creating shortcuts to the following files.
    Organizer: "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Elements 13 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"
    Editor "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 13\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
    If you need help with creating the shortcuts then come back and I will explain how to do it.

  • Standard widgets won't launch

    Hi,
    For some reason some of my widgets (which are enabled in the Widget Manager) won't launch. Morever, they have generic widget black icons (maybe this is okay thugh). When I click on them I get the Basso beep as if there's an error.
    The widgets in question are:
    Business
    Flight tracker
    Translation
    Unit Convertor
    World Clock
    Any idea what could be going on? I've repaired permissions already.
    Thanks,
    Pat

    Hi,
    I've fixed it.
    Sadly it takes some effort to fix.
    I installed Tiger onto an external partition then dragged the faulty widgets across from the new install to the old one and they work again now.
    What's interesting is that the old widgets that had not been working had a .wdgt extension whereas the new replacing ones didn't
