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
Regards,
Andreas

    Parece que no te convierte archivos.
    Puedes explicar por favor qué archivos, en qué formato están, y que comando o menu utilizas para intentar hacerlo? Gracias.

    Hi,
    I'm trying to download the free trial of Acrobat XI Pro, and have downloaded the Adobe Download Assistant, but when I run it, I get the following message:
    Sorry, an error has occured.
    The application cannot be installed due to a certificate problem.  The certificate does not match the installed application certificate, does not support application upgrades, or is invalid.  Please contact the application author.
    I currently have Adobe Reader X installed - do I need to uninstall to get this to work?
    Thanks

  • Download acrobate X pro free trial

    When I go to click the download button nothing happens at all.  I am using Internet Explorer 9

    Please try a different web browser.  It is likely your security settings, plug-ins, or toolbar which is interferring with the availability of the download button.

  • Adobe Acrobat XI Pro keeps closing second after launching or opening a PDF

    I was using the trial version and was was having an issue with the program closing after about 10 seconds, prior to it closing the program works just fine, I have windows 7 with SP1 and have uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat about 10x now trying all the troubleshooting steps I could find including doing all updates and even running the registry cleaning uninstaller and re-installing the program. Spent hours on it and recently upgraded to paid version hoping it would fix it but no such luck, please help.

    Hi,
    Please go to Program File* 86-Common File-Adobe-SLCache Rename the SLCache to Old SLCache
    Program Data-Adobe-SLStore- Rename the SLStore to Old SLStore.
    Then Right click on the application and Run it as an Admin.
    Check if this helps or not.
    Thank You

  • Launching Adobe Acrobat X Pro (Mac) first causes other CS5.5 apps to prompt for serial

    Hi,
    As in the title. Does not matter which machine we install Adobe CS5.5 Master Collection onto if we start Adobe Acobat X Pro first it will fire up and work fine. However if we then quit Adobe Acrobat X Pro and then try and launch any of the other CS5.5 apps such as Photoshop it will prompt for a serial number.
    If we install CS5.5 and launch any of the other CS5.5 apps such as Photoshop it works as per nomal. We can then load Adobe Acrobat Pro X and quit it and the CS5.5 apps still work without prompting for a serial.
    Is anyone else experiencing this on a Mac?
    We have tried different model Macs all with clean os installs and only CS5.5 install and it is all repeatable. We have also tried installing CS5.5 manually as well as using the AAME to package it and the same behaviour occurs.
    Any ideas?
    This is a major issue as we will deploy this to numerous computer labs so if a student starts Adobe Acrobat X Pro first then all the other CS5.5 apps will prompt for a serial.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Lachlan

    I haven't seen this on CS5.5 but in the CS4 and earlier if you started Bridge or Acrobat first you would be prompted to launch one of the other applications first. AFAIK, there's no way around this.

  • I just installed the free trial Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and it is not allowing me to freely convert a pdf to a word document????!!!!

    I just installed the free trial Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and it is not allowing me to freely convert a pdf to a word document????!!!! Why is this? Does anyone have this problem?

    When you report a problem you should always try to include as much relevant information as possible. Saying "it doesn't work, help me!" is not very helpful to us, because there could be a million reasons for it not working... What exactly happens when you try to convert a PDF to Word? Are there any error messages? How exactly are you trying to do it? Also, what operating system do you use? What version of Word? What exactly version of Acrobat? etc.

    K_don52 and Ande8135 please remove your current installation of the Adobe Download Assistant and reinstall.  You can find more details in the known issues section of Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant.

  • Hello. I have adobe forms and received the alert that it will be ending in July. Then I received an email about Adobe Acrobat XI Pro which can create forms. I signed up for the free trial and when I began to make a new form it brings me back to Adobe Form

    Hello. I have adobe forms and received the alert that it will be ending in July. Then I received an email about Adobe Acrobat XI Pro which can create forms. I signed up for the free trial and when I began to make a new form it brings me back to Adobe Forms. My question is, when Adobe Forms ends on July 28th will Adobe Acrobat XI Pro be able to create forms or will it now? and if not, then why is adobe advertising for it still?

    What you're calling "Adobe Forms" is really Adobe FormsCentral. The FormsCentral service is indeed going away soon, but you can always create PDF forms (AcroForms) with Acrobat. Acrobat also comes with a desktop version of the FormsCentral desiger, which can be used to create simple PDF forms that can be used apart from the FormsCentral service. So you'll no longer be able to create and host web forms with the FormsCentral service or use PDF forms with the FormsCentral service. You will be able to create standalone PDF forms with Acrobat and simple PDF forms with the FormsCentral desktop app.
