Adobe Acrobat Pro 8 and Windows XP SP3

Hi all;
My adobe Acrobat Pro 8 (last updated) no longer works well if I install
Windows XP PRO SP3 . In fact Adobe Acrobat works but is totally unable to recognize any printer and a pop windows invites me to install one . Really I have 5 printers configurerd on my computer.
If I uninstall SP3 and come back to SP2 the problem desappears .
A precizion, it does not happens on all my computers, only on my DEll D620 LAPTOP.
Happy to read any help !!!
Many Thanks !!!

Hi Christian, so after installing SP3 you can go into your printers folder and see all your printers? Are these all "local" printers or "networked" printers?
Also, with SP3 installed, are you able to print from any other application (i.e. Notepad) to your printers?

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and Windows Vista

    The last version of Adobe I used to use is version 5. Of
    course that is outdated, and it would appear that the files I
    created with that version are not compatible with the Adobe Reader
    9. So I downloaded the trial version of Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and
    tried to install it. The computer I am trying to install it on is
    new and the OS running is Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit I
    believe). When it says it is installing, after it reaches
    99.blah-blah % it keeps asking me about a scanner being connected.
    What the heck is that all about? It's weird. I connect my scanner
    and it scans and I print a document to a Microsoft OneNote file,
    after which when I close the scanner window the program is not
    installed at all. I check my program list from my start menu to see
    if it is there; and nothing. This thing is, why the heck doesn't it
    just install the full trial program like any other normal
    installation? I just want to be able to send word, excel, etc.
    documents using the acrobat distiller like I used to and create pdf
    documents. This is very frustrating. If this is some kind of
    strange compatibility issue with Vista, than I am really starting
    to regret buying a system with Vista on it more and more. Can
    anyone tell me what is going on here. What I may be doing wrong?
    Anything. Please help. Thank you.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro 7 and Windows 8.

    Does Adobe Acrobat Pro 7 work on Windows 8? Why do I receive the following message:
    Impossibile avviare correttamente l'applicazione (0xc00000fd). Fare clic su OK per chiudere l'applicazione.
    I bought the software and I need it for professional reasons.
    Why is this?
    thank you

    Hi Medina ,
    Acrobat 8 is an older version .It might not be compatible with Windows 7 .
    Try upgrading it to the latest version .i.e Acrobat 11.0.10 or any higher versions than Acrobat 8.
    Many folks have gotten AA8 to work on Win7. I have only heard of one report suggesting that AA8 will work on a 64-bit system, and I am not sure about the report. If you have a 64-bit system, you will likely need to upgrade, though if you play around you might be successful in finding a solution (Adobe will not help since it is not a certified platform, but some folks here might if they have been successful).
    In any case, after installation you will need to do the updates for proper operation. If you can not do them from within Acrobat, you may have to download them fromhttp://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows. You need to install the updates in ORDER unless indicated other wise. Reboots can typically be saved until the last update is installed.

    This means that your scanner software or driver is not correctly installed.

    hello there! i am using Adobe acrobat pro DC and using windows 8.1. Recently I was trying to convert a web page (includes Greek letters) into PDF. I noticed that the conversion is not accurate, some words are missing, some are misplaced. Especially Greek words are not accurately converted or even not converted. Please give me some suggestions to improve this issue. Regards

    Hey quantum info,
    Thank you for posting at Adobe forums. We would love to help you out.
    Could you please let me know if you have tried converting other web pages to PDF and checked if the same issue persists.
    How have you been trying to convert the web page to PDF?
    Are you trying to convert to PDF directly via browsers or using "File > Create > PDF from Web Page"  option in Acrobat.
    Let me know more so that I can analyze where actually the issue persists.
    Hope to hear from you.
    Regards,

  • Adobe Acrobat 5.0 and Windows 7 Problem

    How do I get Adobe Acrobat 5.0 and Windows 7 compatible so I can access my attachments to e-mails sent to me?

    I was successful in installing AA5 in Win7 Starter as a test. It works except that I changed the printer port to file (AcroTray or the Distiller Assistant of AA5 does not work in Win7). You can open the files that are created in Distiller to create PDFs. You may be able to use watched folders to automate the process to some degree.
    I suspect that your question is more of having problems reading PDF files in AA5. That is a different issue. It is not a Win7 compatibility issue, but one of needing a newer PDF viewer. I have AA5 on one XP machine that I use Reader X on for seeing the newer files. I do have to deal with some conflicts between AA5 and ARX, but I can deal with that (many folks lose there minds on that).
    There is one other option that might be a major problem. Many folks are getting Win7 on 64-bit machines. In that case, you will have to be sure AA5 runs in 32-bit compatibility.
    At least that should give you some ideas of what might work. If a 64-bit machine, you may definitely have a problem -- I never tested that combination.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro X and Mac issues

    I am running Adobe Acrobat X Pro on Lion and when I go to scan from PDF, my HP Deskjet 3052 A scanner isn't showing up in the drop down menu.  I also have Acrobat Pro X for Windows on my machine (VMWare) and it works fine, but it won't work with the Mac version.  I have called Adobe and HP and neither have been able to help me.  I bought this program with this feature in mind, and I am sick of having to toggle back to Windows to scan, as it eats up a lot of my processing power.  I have downloaded the SANE and TWAIN drivers (or so I thought I did) with no luck.
    Thanks for your help!
