Adobe Acrobat 5.0 not compatible with Windows Vista

On installing this software on my new Windows Vista, incompatibility message says I need to install kernel-mode print driver. Where can I get this from. No luck with the Adobe website technical support!

Then you will need to purchase an upgrade to the current version 8.1.
Note that Acrobat Standard would be a downgrade; to retain all your
current features you'd need Acrobat Professional.
Note that there was no product called Acrobat Writer, if you want to
be exact. And you would normally have only one of "Acrobat" and
"Acrobat Reader". To make it even more confusing, "Acrobat Reader" was
renamed "Adobe Reader".

  • Adobe acrobat 5 is not compatible with windows 7.  Need replacement that will work.

    adobe acrobat 5 is not compatible with windows 7.  need a replacement that will work.  any suggestions.

    I would recommend Acrobat 10.  You can find more details as well as a trial at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html?promoid=JOLIR.  It should be noted though that Acrobat 5 is too old of a version to qualify for the upgrade price I am sorry.

  • Adobe Acrobat 6.0 not compatible with windows 7

    Hello,
    Some years ago I bought Adobe Acrobat 6.0 which I placed on my old computer. Now I have a new computer with windows 7 and the acrobat 6.0 version apears not compatible with this windows version. Does anyone know a solution?
    Thanks in advance.
    Best wishes,
    Arjen

    If you have Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, or Ultimate, you can download Windows XP Mode and attempt to install Adobe Acrobat 6 in the virtual environment. Windows XP Mode uses Windows Virtual PC to run a full Windows XP Professional 32 bit environment virtually, and it is a free download. A limitation you may encounter is that the PDF printer will not be accessible from your Windows 7 programs, only from programs which are installed in the Windows XP Mode environment.
    This subject has been discussed on several forums, and while Acrobat version 6 does install and work for some users, the PDF printer does not install on Windows 7. Version 9 was the first version which was compatible with Windows 7, so if this is critical to you, you should consider upgrading to the latest version of Acrobat.

    I just got a camcoder that uses Acrobat Reader 5.0 and can view the stillshots but can't view the motion shots. It says it's not compatible with windows vista sp1. What can I do to make them compatible?

  • Captivate is not compatible with Windows Vista RTM

    I can confirm that Captivate 2 is not compatible with Windows
    Vista (RTM Final MSDN). I have been testing it on several systems
    with various versions of Vista. It had partial success with RC2,
    but with RTM it crashes quite frequently (when vista is drawing new
    windows). I can't tell however if captivate is directly responsible
    or if it is perhaps an incompatible version of Flash (current using
    latest version 9 beta) that is to blame. However, since Vista is at
    RTM then I would say that it is now the responsibility of Adobe to
    fix the compatibility issues with a new update. Technically vista
    is not due to domestic market until january 07, however businesses
    will be able to purchase vista in only two weeks, and as Captivate
    is generally used for business/training use i would certainly think
    that it should be of high importance that these issues are
    resolved.
    Can anyone else comment on their experiences with Captivate
    and Vista?

    Hi cptv8
    I appreciate your taking the time to report back your
    findings about Vista. Perhaps it will be helpful to those that are
    early adopters.
    You stated:
    Technically vista is not due to domestic market until january

    You have a valid point. However, you are making it in the
    wrong venue. How? Well, Adobe doesn't normally make it a habit of
    visiting the peer-to-peer support forums. This means users
    supporting users. If you are concerned that Adobe is aware of this
    issue, you should really consider using a different channel. The
    Wish Form. And you can easily get there by simply
    clicking
    here.
    Now I don't claim to be a guru of anything in particular, but
    it seems to me that businesses are very slow to adopt things. They
    tend to take a very pragmatic and slow approach. Many are just now
    making the leap to XP! So I'm guessing that Vista will be slow to
    gain ground. I'm also confident that the Captivate team is well
    aware of the Vista issues and will be addressing them as best they
    can.
    Sincerely... Rick

    It should install and it should run but, because of the age discrepancy, CS is not officially supported by Adobe on Vista.

  • Tecra S2: BIOS 1.3 is not compatible with Windows Vista

    i just bought Windows Vist Ultimate and i tried to install it on my tecra S3 notebook and it said that i had to upgrade my bios. so i did upgrade to latest version found on the toshiba website (v1.3) but i got the same message please provide a bios upgrade which is vista compatible for my notebook or provide where i can find thge update.

    Hi
    The Toshiba driver site says the BIOS 1.3 for Tecra S2 was released on 19/06/2006
    It seems its not a final Vista release and therefore its not compatible with Vista.
    Unfortunately, everything looks like you have to wait with the Vista installation till the new BIOS version is released.

  • Tecra M5 BIOS not compatible with Windows Vista

    Hi, I ran the Vista Upgrade Advisor from Microsoft and it reported that the BIOS on my Tecra M5 was not compatible with Vista and to contact Toshiba. I am currently running version 1.7 - the latest available I think. Is Toshiba going to release a version that will be Vista compatible, or a fix so that I can run Vista on my M5?
    I forgot to mention that the machine is a UK M5 (PTM51E)
    Many thanks,
    David

    David,
    That's not the case. Whatever the results of the software advisor that you have run, you can install VISTA ok on your Tecra M5 PTM51E portable but obviously subject to you having purchased the license (full version or upgrade) from a local supplier, however, you will have to carry out a new (clean) installation of VISTA which means you would have to wipe your hard disk drive in the process. Obviously, making sure that you backup all of your data first to another system (or to external media) and be aware of the software that may/may not run correctly under VISTA before starting the process.
    There's a new M5 BIOS released for your M5 which would then upgrade your existing 1.7 BIOS to the latest version.
    The standard 512mb Tecra M5's run VISTA very well. No Toshiba software is available, however, maybe this will be released over time so you can adjust power settings and utilities as you can now under XPP.
    After installing and registering/activating VISTA you will be prompted to install various updates (including an updated graphics driver and some patches.) Take these options and then your portable should work better. That said, even the standard VISTA installation works fine (AERO support appears to be improved on the new version plus it looks slightly more optimised and also runs a little quicker.)
    If you are familiar with your portable, IT aware, and unsure of wiping your existing system totally, then you could also purchase a additional internal Toshiba SATA HDD kit for the Tecra M5 in order to try VISTA in the short time. Another internal 80gb/100gb HDD would give you the capability to try VISTA without losing all or your XP software and software/networking configurations, enabling you to move back to XPP should you have any (none-Microsoft) software or antivirus software issues stopping you from working after your installation of VISTA. I appreciate that there are costs associated but this would allow you to switch between XP and VISTA more easily (than wiping your current system, installing VISTA and then going back to XPP should any problems occur, not to mention the time savings that this could introduce !)
    With VISTA, just take >>GREAT CARE<< with your software. Many (none- Microsoft) software applications have some issue(s) with VISTA because it is new. So, this may mean that you may have to purchase a software update in order to ensure that you have 100% compatibility with your favourite applications (or have to replace your existing software versions entirely with new ones.)

  • Is Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional compatible with Windows 7?

    I've ordered Acrobat XI Pro, but it may be a week or two before I receive it.  I need to make some pdf files from WordPerfect files and I already have Acrobat 7.0 Pro.  I was hoping to be able to use the 7.0 until I receive the version XI.

    You can install AA7 on WIn7, 32 or 64-bit. However, the print driver will not install and AcroTray will not work (at least on the 64-bit machine). To Solve the issue temporarily, install another PS driver (there are several for HP printers and probably other PS printers available in the system). Be sure to use a color PS driver if you want color -- I happened to pick up a B&W PS driver when I tried it. Then change the name to Adobe PDF (I think that was still the printer name for AA7) and change the port of the printer to FILE. To create a PDF just print to the new Adobe PDF printer. If you have a compatible version of WORD, you should still be able to even use PDF Maker with this driver. After the file is saved, open it in Distiller to create the PDF. This worked for me in a test, but is extra work for regular work and the driver may not pick up all of the normal issues of the Adobe driver.

  • Is Flash Player 11 just not compatible with Windows Vista 64 bit?

    When I installed the latest version of Flash, I lost the ability to view You Tube videos for more than the first 3 or 4 seconds. Today I went to the adobe site thinking I needed a new flash player, and got this message:
    Note:Flash Player does not support 64-bit versions of Windows XP and Vista. Flash Player 11 now includes support for Windows 7 64-bit.
    Seriously? So I have to scrap my computer or get Windows 7 in order to use Flash?
    I am not a techy, so I have resisted coming to the forums and getting a response I don't know what to do with. If you have an answer for this, I would really REALLY appreciate it if you can translate it into language for the lay person.
    It isn't just You Tube videos, either. So many news and other items are now done in video instead of an article, and I am finding that I am not able to get information I am looking for because of this.
    Please help!

    What this means is the following: the 64-bit version of Flash Player will install fine on Vista 64-bit, but Adobe will not provide support if it does not work as expected.
    In fact, Adobe will not provide any support for any Flash Player on any platform, except here in this forum.
    I suggest that you
    uninstall your current Flash Player using the uninstaller from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html
    install the 64-bit Flash Player with the offline installer(s) from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html#Ins tall_in_a_firewall_proxy_server_environment

  • ITines is not compatible with Windows Vista Ultimate

    I tried 3 times to install (re-install) iTunes 7.3 so I could activate my iPhone. iTunes kept returning a message to uninstall and re-install iTunes, since some unknown piece of software was needed to recognize the iPhone. When will Apple fix this problem? I had to use an older WindowsXP machine to successfully activate the iPhone.

    Yes, I went through this too. I have Ultimate 64bit (came installed on my new HP Laptop - most of the new laptops are coming this way.
    I finally took my iPhone back, because the as the gal at the Apple store told me, they will never support 64 bit Windows OS.
    However I did read a post here that future versions of iTunes were expected to correct this. I sure hope so.
    Anyone know if the new iTunes 7.3.1 corrects or now allows for activation or synching with Vista 64 bit???
