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course that is outdated, and it would appear that the files I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.

    It would be helpful to know what version of Acrobat, WORD, and operating system.
    Without that info, I would suggest at this point to open your WORD file and then go to the print menu and print to file using the Adobe PDF printer. Open the created file in Distiller and see if you get a PDF. If so, check to see if AcroTray is running in the background.
    You say you tried many ways. It would help to know what you tried and what worked or did not work, and at what point the failure occurs.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro in Windows 7 w/ Autocad in XP Mode- not working

    I'm running Autocad Arch Desktop (ADT) in Windows XP Mode within Windows 7, and have Adobe Acrobat Pro installed in Windows 7.  Unfortunately, no "Adobe PDF"  pulldown was created within ADT once Adobe Pro was installed, and there isn't any sign of Adobe in ADT (normally, Adobe automatically installs pulldowns within ADT once installed).  Adobe and ADT function normally otherwise.  Does anyone know how to get Adobe Acrobat Pro in Windows 7 to recognize and work with ADT in Windows XP Mode?

    Can you tell me how to set the defaults to Courier 10pt font?  I tried select all and it's grayed out, but that was after the
    fact.  Where are the original default presets?
    Thank you in advance.

  • I have downloaded a trail version of adobe acrobat pro and when I try to use it, it says that it cannot be edited in acrobat, please use adobe livecycle designer to edit this form. I can't work out what I need to do?

    Acrobat XI is not distributed with Designer. Designer is now a separate product. You can create forms in Acrobat as an AcroForm or using Forms Central (an online forms program). You can print the form to a new PDF and then recreate the fields in Acrobat using the recognize form fields. You will likely have to fix the form fields, but that would be the process. Generally, once a form is taken to Designer, you can't bring it back without such steps.
    Designer is available with AA8 - AAX, but since is a separate product as I indicated.

    You do not need a Beta channel build of Firefox (which currently is 32.0b6) to use Flash as the issue was you needed Firefox 27.0 or newer to use the old Flash 11.1 plugin on Android '''4.4'''. after it came out on tablets/phones.
    What Nexus 7 version do you have as there was a 2012 and a 2013 model. A easy way to tell if it is a 2013 is it has a camera on each '''back''' and front while 2012 only has one on front.
    If it is the 2012 then it has a Nvidia Tegra 3 so the old Flash 11.1 Plugin is disabled.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro and Livecycle

    Hello,
    just recentlty purchased my Adobe Acrobat Pro to edit (especially my interactive calculations), which I created in LIvecycle on Windows.
    Unfortunately, I always just got the error message "This form cannot be edited in Acrobat. Please use Adobe LiveCycle Designer to edit this form."
    Unfortunately I am not using Windows any more, so was wondering, if there is any other way to edit my documents ?
    Thanks a lot, Marc

    No. You can only edit LC forms in LiveCycle, and it is not available on a
    Mac. Also, even on Windows it's no longer bundled with Acrobat. You have to
    purchase it separately (or request a download link if you had a previous
    license).
    I would suggest converting your files to "standard" Acrobat forms, if
    possible.

  • Cannot install Adobe Acrobat Pro on Windows XP

    Good day,
    I cannot install Adobe Acrobat Pro on my windows XP machine with SP2 and the latest updates.
    The error says that the software cannot be installed on the Operating system, please see minimum requirements. I meet all these but cannot install
    I saw a similar question posted on the forums but it is unanswered.
    Please assist me.

    Hi,
    This link has the minimum system requirements for Acrobat 10 Pro : Acrobat X Pro Tech Specs
    On Windows XP, the minimum requirement is SP3 for 32 bit. I would recommend that you update to SP3 by running Windows Update and then reinstall the application.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro (and Safari) take minutes to quit!!!

    Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.2.0 (and Apple Safari 4.0.4) take several minutes to quit on Mactel with Mac OS X 10.5.8. I thought that they had frozen after selecting to quit such applications, or logout, restart or shutdown the Mac, but if I leave the Mac for several minutes, they eventually quit.
    What can it be? The Console does not indicate any special activity.

    Update:
    If I open Acrobat or Safari and immediately or after a while I quit them, they quit quickly as expected. No problem. But if I leave them all day open and then try to quit them, then:
    - Acrobat takes several minutess to quit. Console shows nothing. After a while, Activity Monitor shows Acrobat (Not responding) taking about 5% CPU and also spindump taking about 10% CPU. Eventually spindump does not show and after some minutes, Safari shows as normal (without the not responding red label), and a few seconds later it quits normally.
    - Safari takes several minutess to quit. It shows the same behavior, but this time Console shows: PopChar installed fonts changed.

  • Security matching between Adobe Acrobat Pro and Adobe Reader

    I've created a PDF in Adobe Acrobat Pro that requires information to be filled out in boxes as well as signatures to complete the form. I've tested the form on different computers that bring it up in Adobe Reader. I'm trying to make them compatible. My Security options on Pro for the document show that everything is allowed (printing, changing the document, signing, etc.) but when it is opened up in Reader it shows most of those as Not Allowed.  I need to change that but I'm not sure how. I need the form to be compatible for Reader so that others can fill out the information needed and then submit via email back to me. Please advise on what to do to make that happen, if possible. I need details! Thanks!!

    You can enable certain features in Reader, such as digitally signing and saving, by Reader-enabling the document in Acrobat. Exactly how you do this depends on what version of Acrobat you're using:
    A9: Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader
    A10: File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features
    A11: File > Save as Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save)

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro and Reader Freeze

    Everytime I open Adobe Acrobat Pro or Reader I am unabe to open the preferences menu.  Program freezes up.  Also when I hit print the program also freezes.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times with no success.

    Which version (and sub-version)? Why do you have both Reader and Acrobat installed? Before AAX this was not a recommended combination at all.
    You should be able to delete the Reader and repair Acrobat. If you do not have the most current version of Acrobat, you should do an update(s). If you uninstall and reinstall again, before the reinstall, deleted any left over parts of the Acrobat folder and run a registry cleanup utility (the MS one if you can get it -- MS quit distributing it -- or CCleaner). Then reinstall. Typically the repair and the updates should take care of things unless you have gotten a corrupt plug-in included somehow.

  • Acrobat XI and Windows Vista

    Subscription version of Acrobat XI will not download onto my Windows Vista system.  Can I get Acrobat X instead?

    adobe doesn't sell older software versions.  you can download a trial, though.
    did you use compatibility mode (xp sp 3 - for 32 bit, xp sp2 - for 64 bit)  and, if so, what problem are you having with acrobat xi?  (and is that pro or standard?)
