Adobe Acrobat 9 install disc

Hello,
I currently have a Mac Pro with the CS5 Design suite installed. I just purchased a Macbook Pro and I'm installing all the software, however, when I go to install Adobe Acrobat 9 from its CD - it just opens the application rather than install it. Any idea as to what happened to the installer? I wasn't sure if this was the right forum or not but I thought I would try here first. I appreciate any/all help. Thank you.

It is unusual for such large programs to be "drag and drop". Sure makes it easy, though.

    It has stopped working (yet again -- it has done that three of four times over the last year).
    I have spent days trying to repair it; etc. without any success.
    The last time this happened, it was necessary for someone from Adobe to reinstall it entirely, if I remember correctly.
    I give up. Can anyone tell me what I must do get the program to actually work?
    I spend more time trying to get Adobe Acrobat to work, than I do actually doing my work.
    My OS is Windows 8.1.  My system has 16 MB of RAM, and hard disks are not overfilled.
    I run update virus checker (Kaspersky) daily.

    Hi Hugh ,
    Could you please tell what are the challenges you are facing while trying to access Acrobat ?
    Do you get any error message ?If yes ,please share the screen shot of the same.
    Please try the solution outlined here: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/acrobat-failed-launch-30-days.html
    OR
    Try repairing it from Control panel, or try launching it with a different user account and check if it works or not.
    Install the latest updates for Acrobat X from the link : http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows
    and check.

  • Delete AcrobatStd_11_Web_WWMUI after adobe acrobat install?

    Can I delete AcrobatStd_11_Web_WWMUI after adobe acrobat install?  It seems to be only the download program / extractor.  It's over 400,000 KB in my documents library folder, so I would prefer to delete it if it's not needed after install.  Thanks.

    Hi BolderArchitecture
    If the acrobat has been installed Successfully , You can delete the Installer file.

  • Adobe Acrobat install not creating cached files

    Greetings,
    We have used the Customization Wizard to create the Adobe Acrobat Pro (8.x and XI/11.0.2)
    We DID select the option to:
    Enable caching of installer files on local hard drive
    The problem is that the cache directory that Adobe says it should create/populate, does not happen.
    The Adobe docs state:
    The files are installed to Program Files\Adobe\<product name and version> unless a different location is selected in Personalization Options. By default, all of the other installer files are also cached to the same location. If you change the installation path, then the location of the setup files will change accordingly.
    We checked there and there's no cached items created.
    Obviously this causes issues when doing a repair.
    So it looks for like the AcroStan.msi file which doesn't exist anywhere on the pc.

    I'm not sure what you mean.
    You mean grab a copy of the CD or something and try a manual install?

  • End User License Agreement, Safari 9.0.4, No Adobe Acrobat installed

    When I try to open a PDF document from a link within Safari (Mac OS 10.9.3, Safari 9.0.4), I keep getting a warning that I must accept the End User License Agreement for Adobe Acrobat.  I do not have Adobe Acrobat.  This happened after I migrated all my files to a new Mac.  I have no idea how to get out of this and I need to be able to read these documents inline rather than downloading.  I already have accepted the EULA so please do not suggest that.

    Well, did you launch Adobe Reader from your applications and accept it there?

    This is a copy of ONEof the keys  in the registry I changed  as told by Apple support today. I also have changed others as instructed by GEAR  software support to manually delete GEAR drivers (that I had installed but couldn't delete some of the others  they mentioned from Windows system 32. Then some bright spark at work told me I need the Gear drivers so  I downloaded the software and installed again.
    Sorry, just this minute went to insert image  and it is giving me a message saying this sort of content  is not allowed?.
    The most recent key I altered is in: HKey _local _machine. System\class - 4D36E965-E325-11CEBFC1-08002BE10318. Upper Filter data: Upper filter NTIDrvr  SiRem GEARAspiWDN.

  • Firefox hangs up when trying to open a pdf page. I have the latest version of Adobe Acrobat installed. I have Win 7 and Firefox 4.0

    Firefox opens up a new tab but the page remains blank. No error message appears.

  • I have Adobe Acrobat installed and recently updated and just downloaded Adobe Reader, which is running, and still cannot open a PDF.

    Nothing happens. I get the same screen that tells me to download the computer.

    You'll need to right-click, download the pdf and use File>Open from within Reader. That combination is not supported any more. Chrome broke it.

  • Adobe Reader X install on a workstation with Adobe Acrobat

    I need to deploy Adobe Reader X to all users in our org (10,000+).  However, when testing the MSI on a machine with a previous version of Adobe Acrobat installed, Adobe Reader X becomes the default PDF handler.  I have made a change to the MST using the Customzation Wizard.  I have tried entering DEFAULT_VERB=OPEN in my command line.  I have edited the MSI directly using InstallShield.  In all cases, after the install Adobe Reader X is the default PDF handler.
    This is unacceptable.  In previous versions, all that was necessary was to use the Customization Wizard and set the option to make Acrobat the default if it was installed.  The only valid option now is "Installer will decide which product will be the default."  I cannot deploy this application this way.  It makes no sense to have a user that has Acrobat installed to use Reader for opening PDF's!!!
    Please assist.
    JDAWG

    Please see this link for an explanation of the value of co-installs, and the rationale for the PDF switcher registry keys.
    In the Acrobat X Family, the DEFAULT_VERB parameter is replaced with IW_DEFAULT_VERB, values being "Read" (uses Reader) or "Open" (uses Acrobat). You can also set LEAVE_PDFOWNERSHIP="YES" to keep whatever existing handlers are registered (if none, the installer will claim them).

  • Accidentally deleted Adobe Acrobat XI Pro from Creative Cloud account - how to reinstall?

    I have an Adobe Creative Cloud account and it will not allow me to reinstall Adobe Acrobat XI because it thinks it is updated. However, I accidentally uninstalled it, trying to prevent it from over-riding an older Adobe Acrobat install I had. I now need to reinstall it.
    How can I get the Adobe updated to recognize that Adobe Acrobat is not installed? I've had it recheck several times over the last 2 months.
    The Adobe site will not download it, even though I select the "download" button, nor will the Creative Cloud account installer.

    Shut down Acrobat and any Creative Cloud application before doing this procedure.
    1    Rename caps folder.
              a.  Using the Finder menu Go>Go to Folder.
              b.  In the "Go to Folder" window put the following path:  /Library/Application Support/Adobe/
              c.  Rename the folder named "caps" at this location to something else (i.e. OLD_caps):
    /Library/Application Support/Adobe/caps
    2    Install Acrobat from within the Creative Cloud application.
    3    Rename new caps folder.
              a.  Using the Finder menu Go>Go to Folder.
              b.  In the "Go to Folder" window put the following path:  /Library/Application Support/Adobe/
              c.  Rename the folder named "caps" at this location to something else (i.e. NEW_caps):
    /Library/Application Support/Adobe/caps
    4 Rename the OLD_caps folder back to "caps"
    5 Now you should be good.
    *Note:  The "caps" folder contains the files that the Creative Cloud application reads to show what IS and IS NOT installed.

  • Adobe Acrobat XI Pro free trial won't launch, claiming no Internet connection

    Hi,
    I wondered if anyone could help me solve this mystery: I am trying to launch the Adobe Acrobat XI Pro free trial. Sign In is required to use the trial. But when I click on "Sign in now", I get the message "Please connect to the Internet and retry". Which is strange, because  my Internet connection is active and stable. The same panel hints that my clock might be at fault (but it is correct). I am running Windows 7, no earlier version of Adobe Acrobat installed. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions you might have on how I can resolve this riddle.
    Thanks in advance,
    Andreas

    Hi SumitV,
    Thank you for answering and suggesting ways to remedy my problem. I tried all the four actions you made me aware of, but although everything seems to be all right, I still cannot launch Acrobat XI in the trial version. The only little hickup came when accessing Adobe's secure site, which prompted this message:
    But when I later checked the certificate, it seemed to be installed and enabled. I am no expert, but it looked like it should according to step 4 under http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-i ssues.html

  • Adobe Reader - Adobe Acrobat issue

    I have a user who has Adobe Reader 9.3.4 installed on his system and he also has Adobe Acrobat Pro 6.0.
    When he tries to open up a PDF that is on the Web that does not ask if he wants to "open" the file or "save" the file it just (tries) to open up the PDF, he gets the following error message:
    Adode PDF Document
    The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser.
    Adobe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required.  Please Exit and try again.
                                            OK
    I checked the file extension as to what the default program is for opening up PDF's and it does say that it is Adobe Reader 9.3.
    What do I need to do to correct this issue?  He needs to have Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat installed on his system.
    Thanks,
    RI

    Hi,
    The reason that you are getting this message is because, your default application to handle .PDF is set as Adobe Acrobat 6 which is not compatible for opening files in browser.
    I read that you have checked that the default application is Adobe Reader on your system, but that is application that Windows has associated with any file with .PDF extension.
    Internally, Adobe Acrobat is set as the default PDF viewing application.
    You can set Reader as the default viewing app by doing the following steps:
    1. Uninstall Adobe Reader from your system.
    2. Install Adobe Reader 9.3.4 from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.3.4/enu/AdbeRdr934_en_US.exe
    3. While installing, the installation dialog will ask you, which app do you want to set as the default app for viewing PDFs. Make sure that you chose Adobe Reader and continue further.
    4. Voila, you will have Adobe Reader as the default app while you open files in browser.

  • Intall Error - Adobe Acrobat X Pro - Mac OSX (10.8.4) Mountain Lion

    Hi,
    I cannot install Adobe Acrobat X Pro on my Mac running Mountain Lion. The install file is through my university. The Installer runs like normal but end with the following screen:
    I can send the lntall log if necessary. I have turned off Gatekeeper so it cannot be that. What is wrong??
    Marius

    Thanks for your response. However, I do not have any other version of Adobe Acrobat installed. I even tried to remove Adobe Reader, but same response. The only other Adobe product I have installed is Adobe Air, but that should not have any effect.
    Any other tips?

  • I need to include Adobe Acrobat converter - whether it's an add-on or plugin - so that I could convert the website content to PDF.

    On Internet Explorer, there is an Adobe Acrobat icon which would allow the website's content to be converted to a PDF document. While I tried to import all features from IE to Firefox, that feature did not appear. That is so important to me that despite all advantages of Firefox I had to go back to IE.

    I don't know whether anyone has created a PDF button for Firefox. What I do is print to PDF. After using Preview to confirm that it will fit, I print to a PDF printer driver. If you have Adobe Acrobat installed, this may show up among your printers as Distiller.
    If you don't have Adobe Acrobat, there are a number of third party PDF printer drivers (free and paid) to choose from.
