Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard will not open

I downloaded Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard in July 2005. It has worked fine with no bugs. I really do not need to upgrade but now have a problem. I have had some other issues with my computer and now when I try to open this program, I get a window that says:
The installation source for this product is not available. Veryify that the source exists and that you can access it.
I have not deleted it to my knowledge but it won't open. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks a million!

If you registered or can show proof of purchase, you should be able to get it back from Adobe, though they will likely tell you to upgrade. It is a matter of proof of purchase. The registration is the standard process to assure this agreement. They claim they do not have old versions, but I doubt that is totally true if you push the point and can demonstrate the purchase.
In any case, Adobe is the one that would have to fix the issue for you. Next time, be sure to burn a CD and also register (if not done). Burning program CDs is important for any software you buy off the web.

    Hi 4blake4,
    I am sorry that you are experiencing this issue.
    Is there any error message or any error code once you launch the application?
    If you are using CS6 Suite please follow these steps :-
    Launch another CS6 application, such as Photoshop.
    Choose Help > Deactivate.
    Follow the onscreen prompts to deactivate.
    Close the application.
    Launch the same CS6 Suite product again.
    Sign in with your Adobe ID associated with CS6 suite to re-activate.

  • Adobe Acrobat 6.0.1 will not open after update

    I was prompted to add a patch to my Adobe Acrobat 6.0 running on a Mac OS X 10.5.8 After down loading the patch and installing, Adobe Acrobat will not open. A prompt comes up warning me; "The currently selected language resources are not supported by the current version of Adobe Acrobet. Please reselect the language in the international Systems Preference panel." I did this to no avail. Anyone else with this problem? Thanks!

    Did the update info come from Adobe? In any case, you might try a repair (not sure how that is done on a MAC. You can also download updates from Adobe at http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Macintosh.

  • Adobe Acrobat 8 Prof - PDFs will not open in Adobe automatically

    I have a workstation that has Adobe Acrobat 8 professional installed. I was first notified that the user complained that each time he opened a PDF in an Email, it would open in Explorer. I had him save a document to his c; drive and did a view file type. In that listing, there was no Adobe professional listed. I attempted to browse to the adobe.exe file but each time, it would default back to explorer, even if I checked the box for it to default to the adobe.exe file that I browsed to. I also noted that adobe never became an application in that listing.
    We uninstalled adobe and reinstalled it. Still not successful. We ended up installing Adobe Reader, but the user wants it to open in Adobe Professional. I know that he can save the document then open it with Adobe profesional, but this is an extra step and he would like to be able to just double click on the file and open into Adobe Professional.
    What do I need to do to make this work?
    Thanks in advance.

    QUOTE>>>To clarify, you would need to first check to see if the PDF extension is set to open (screenshot.20). THIS IS THE AREA THAT PDF IS NOT IN.
    If it is not set to open with Acrobat <your version here> (screenshot.21), then you will need to manually tell the computer what program to use.  This is where it becomes important to know the filename you are looking for. Adobe is a company; Acrobat is a program. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I TRIED TO DO AND OF COURSE I KNOWN I USED THE WRONG NAME / WORD HERE BUT I WAS LOOKING FOR THE CORRECT FILE. WHEN I CHOSE THE ACROBAT.EXE FILE IT WOULD STILL OPEN IN INTERNET EXPLORER.
    I have a different version than you do, but as an example, my program is located here: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe I'M IN THE RIGHT AREA AND GOT THE RIGHT FILE NAME. THIS IS NOT THE ISSUE.
    Can we get off the wrong word use and get back to a solution please. I am in the right folder c:\program files\adobe\acrobat 8.0\acrobat.exe and I am browsing for ACROBAT.exe (not ADOBE.exe - again wrong word in my first discussion)
    Bad day, sorry!

  • I HAVE ADOBE ACROBAT PRO.  IT WILL NOT OPEN/WORK.

    HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM BEFORE.  HPPSC217.
    WAS TOLD TO GO TO PHOTOSHOP AND DEACTIVATE ACROBATX PRO.
    WILL TRY RE-INSTALLING - DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO.

    Hi up and at em,
    What happens when you try to launch Acrobat? Are you getting an activation error? Or a different type of error? Please elaborate. It would also be helpful to know what operating system you're on (Mac or Windows, and version).
    We look forward to hearing back from you.

  • My licensed copy of Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0 will not load

    My licensed copy of Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0 will not load - the disk just isn't recognized by our drives any longer. How do I get a replacement disk?  BTW - Adobe support seems to be the worst I've ever experienced from any single company. I am getting no where! It took me forever to find this forum and I am not expecting any results.  Is there a competitor for Adobe Acrobat 9.0?  I need to convert documents to PDF, combine pages, etc.... We are paperless and need these functions.

  • Acrobat 9 standard will not open in Windows 8?

    Not sure what else to do. It installed just fine, but now will not open. Has anyone else had this issue?

    I have not seen anyone report success with AA9 on Win8 yet. At this point, that is as much as I can say, other than only AA XI has been certified for Win 8. When you say will not open, are you trying to actually run the application directly and not try to double click on a PDF?

  • Adobe Acrobat 8.2.4 will not uninstall without cashing windows uninstaller

    I have a Dell 8100 with Windows 7 home 64 bit.  I found Acrobat 8.2.4 would not open.  I attempted to uninstall.  It get 95% through removing files and such and crashs.  It displays ERROR 1316 Network error occurred while attempting to read from file. \windows\installer\acrostan.msi.
    If you put the original Acobat 8.0 installation disc and attempt to do an uninstall again it completes about 95% of the uninstall before I receive the following Error 1935  An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'policy. 8.0.microsoft.vc80.version='8.0.52727.163", type=vin32-policy", publickeytoken="1frc8b3b9a1e18e3b", Processorarchitecture="x86". 
    This error was caused by an Adobe Acrobat Update. Could we please get some assistance in uninstalling this program.  Is is not asking much to have you support you own software.
    I do not think this request is unreasonable nor does anyone of the thousands of other with this same problem.
    Thank you

    Acrobat 8.x was never compatible with Windows 7. It should not have been installed. You may try the following:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/333/333227.html
    or
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/400/kb400658.html
    But as the article mentions if it fails you will need to speak with a Level 3 support tech. None of these articles address Windows 7 explicitly, since it should never have been installed.

  • I can download (from cloud) Adobe Lightroom 4 but it will not open - error 0x000007b

    I can download, from Cloud, other Adobe products BUT when I download Lightroom 4 it will not open and gives an error message "This application was unable to start correctly (0x000007b).
    Previously I had purchased, singularily, Lightroom 3 and it worked well for almost a year but suddently when I would try to open I received the same error message as above.   I have tried MULTIPLE courses to try to fix this but cannot.

    Mylenium,
    Thank you for your reply.   Other adobe apps are not a problem, i.e., Adobephotoshop, Adobe Acrobat Xi, etc.   The version 3 that was initially purchased worked fine for several months and then reverted to the error message agove.   When I purchased Cloud and downloaded LR4 the download was fine but again would not open.   I have spent hours on the phone with tech help from India and it was a massive waste of time....   I ran a repair on Windows, downloaded 32bit version of LR3 and it seems to work some...could not find 32bit of LR4.    I have installed and removed the program more than 10 times.   I do not know what "event viewer" is nor where I would find it.   Disappointed in the system and appalled with tech support.

    You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:

    Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from

    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • Adobe Reader 11.0.9 will not open PDF's from network shares

    Having an issue on computers running 11.0.8 that auto update to 11.0.9.  Opening a PDF from a network share that previously worked will no longer, giving the following error: "There was an error opening this document. The network path was not found".  I tried backing off to 11.0.8 again, as that's what get.adobe.com/reader is serving up, but it pops it right back to .9 after a few minutes as auto-updates are on. 
    Network path was put in the Security (Advanced) section, even turned Protected Mode off.
    Ideas?
