Adobe Acrobate 10 updates set computer to previous system restore point

I just installed the update for Adobe Acrobat 10 Pro and realized that the update put my computer to a restore point from the previous week. Unfortunately I had installed critical updates to other software last week, all of which were not captured in that restore point. I now have to go through and reinstall the updates. I am wondering why this happened and whether or not this is something I will have to contend with everytime the software updates?

What is the Adobe Acrobat Updater PDF Repair Setup Computer Freeze Solution?

I'm using CS4 Creative Suite 4 Design Premium.
The Adobe Acrobat Updater keeps urging me to upgrade to Acrobat 9.3.3. When I attempt to do so, I get a Repair Setup screen saying, "Acrobat has detected that there are missing components that require repair. Select the optional components you would like to repair and click Continue. Deselect a component to completely remove it. Click Cancel to cancel the component repair process." The Adobe PDF Printer is shown with a checkbox next to it.
At this point, the check box next to the Adobe PDF Printer, the Cancel button, and the Continue button are all not operable. The whole update process becomes frozen. Even a Force Quit will not remove the updater from the screen. The only way to get rid of it is with a restart.
This keeps happening over and over again and is becoming annoying.
How can this problem be resolved?
Please advise.
Thanks!

Look to see if something similar to:
Adobe PDF or Adobe quality PDF when you go to the print menu and click on PDF.
http://screencast.com/t/MWI0M2Q1M here is expample of what you see in OSX.4.11
5 and 6 should have a choice of adobe pdf or adobe quality PDF.
IF it does delete the AdobePDF Print driver from Printer Utility and use this.

Try repairing acrobat installation then running the installer if it gets stuck 've run out of suggestions other than remove Acrobat all together evrything you can find anywhere on the computer (except your PDF and start from scratch. upgrading from 9.0 through each of upgradeds.

Can you help complete the Adobe Acrobat update installation?

The Adobe Acrobat Update Installation has been going on for hours. Can you please complete the installation?

My image is a screenshot saved to my desktop.
When the install fails, this is the message I get:
"The update could not be applied because the Adobe Reader application contents were modified since the original installation.
Please reinstall Adobe Reader and check for updates again.
Error: 1301"
When this happened once before your tech had me work with the root user on my computer.
Today I went to the Error 1301 site and followed the directions: (System Preferences, Account Login, Login Options, and Join for Network Account Server; when the Directory Utility opened, I unlocked the Directory Utility window, chose Enable Root User from the Edit menu, but couldn't accomplish the next step in the directions: "Enter the root password you wish to use in both the Password and Verify fields".

Adobe Acrobat Update Service

Hello,
we have a problem with the service "Adobe Acrobat Update" (AdobeARMservice). We observe that sometimes to open a PDF Document needs more time while the service is running, as the same Document needs while the servcie is disabled. for example 30 seconds while service is running to 2 seconds while its disabled.
Did you noticed the same issue, or have a solution?
Notic: It is not the Virusscan-issue (McAfee) this is fixed.
Best regards.

It is highly unlikely that this Service can cause the delay.
Here is what we can do to rule it out-
1. Please enable full verbose MSI logging on this system (Google for the instructions)
2. Enable Adobe Reader Updater verbose logging -
In the registry below set iLogLevel DWORD value to 1.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Adobe ARM\1.0\ARM (if you have 32bit OS)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Adobe\Adobe ARM\1.0\ARM (if you have 64bit OS)
3. Delete AdobeARM.log file from User %Temp% folder
4. Open your PDF document, wait for ~40 seconds
If you confirm the delay in loading PDF, collect AdobeARM.log file and latest file called MSIxxxx.log (if exists) from User Temp folder, Zip them and e-mail to me - please do not post content here - they could be big.

Error:1602 , Adobe Acrobat Updater - Update Failed

My operating system is Windows 7 Professional, 64-bit
After installing Creative Suites 4 and downloading updates, I received an Acrobat Updater notification that Updates were available.
I clicked on the Adobe Acrobat Updater icon and ultimately got the following Error.
Adobe Acrobat Updater, Update Failed, Error:1602
This was solved by going to C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Acrobat\9.2\ARM
I deleted the contents of the ARM folder and then ran "Check for Updates" from Adobe Acrobat. This re-populated the ARM folder with the correct folder and files. Updater ran and I followed the instructions to restart my computer and now it works well.

Error 1923: Adobe Acrobat Update Service (AdobeARMService) could not be installed

When I try to update my copy of Adobe Reader, I get
Error 1923: Adobe Acrobat Update Service (AdobeARMService) could not be installed.
Verify that you have sufficient privileges to install system services.
This occurs even when I run the install program with "Run as Administrator".
And it occurs for release 11 and the older release 10.
How do I get around this problem?

Adobe Acrobat Update Manager Stalls Apple

Every time I start up the PowerBook, the Adobe Acrobat Update Manager (for Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional) stalls the start-up. An error window shows, on the Apple, indicating this. It requires, each and every time, a manual close-out of the Adobe updater. I have tried to remove updater, and yet it continues. This is NOT for the Reader but for the full-blown Adobe Acrobat program. Thank you.

Hi Jay, open Acrobat>Preferences and check for automatic updates to uncheck.
Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check System Preferences, the Other row for possibilities.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

Adobe Acrobat Updater pop up window

Each time I access a pdf file using Acrobat 9 Pro I receive th following message.
"Adobe Acrobat Updater has not been able to check for updates recently. Check online to see if solutions are available from the Adobe website."
I must select the option to close the pop up to continue working. This issue started only recently. How do I make this stop??

Jeri, your link was helpful! Let me take a step back in saying that I have both Adobe Acrobat Pro and Reader installed on my computer.
Your link led me to the Acrobat_Reader_Updater.pdf. There was a reference to the registry and iCheckReader. I started snooping in the registry and that's when I discovered that I had different versions of Adobe Acrobat Pro (v9.5) and Reader (X) installed. Although running this combination should not IMHO be a problem I decided to remove Reader (X). I haven't had the pop up message since it was removed.
I note that you are an employee of Adobe. This might be worth posting somewhere or investigating further why the pop up appears with this product combination. Not every Adobe customer is going to upgrade to Adobe Acrobat Pro (X).

Error Message reads: "Adobe Acrobat Updater Certificate failed to install."

I am unable to make any updates to my Adobe programs (including creative suite CS3). Everytime I try, I type in my password, but I always get the same error message: Adobe Acrobat Updater Certificate failed to install.
I believe this is happening because I actually inherited my Adobe programs, including the MacBook Pro the programs are installed on. The owner used to be a relative who, sadly, passed away. I thought I had changed everything to be under my name as the owner, but having never done it before it's possible I missed something? Perhaps my relative's name is still recognized as the owner?
Please help as this is wreaking havoc in many "little" ways...
Thanks.

Had the same problem. Found two updaters on the computer. Go to "applications/utilities/adobe utilities". Threw away the folder "Adobe Updater5". Ran the "Adobe Updater6/Adobe Updater.app". Problem gone.

Adobe Acrobat Updater Certificate failed to install.

Adobe Acrobat Updater Certificate failed to install. I am running Mac OS X 10.6.3 on a MacBook Pro. What can I do to get it to install this update?

hi
You can go to the location applications/utilities/adobe utilities.
Here you will find an application called as the Adobe Updater6/Adobe Updater.app try running one of them would definitely install the updates on your system.
thanks regard

Adobe Acrobat updates - opt ins or opt outs for Google Chrome?

Hi - anybody else fed up that when accepting one of the many Adobe Acrobat updates that the flag is set for also installing Google products? These should be set as opt ins, not as opt outs, and I find this intrusive. It's time wasting having to uninstall these products, and also fill in a lengthy questionnaire why you are uninstalling the product you never wanted to install in the first place!
Rant over....

I have never seen any Acrobat updates coming with bundled software; where do you get them from?
Here is the last Acrobat update (Windows): http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5721
Same, b.t.w., for Adobe Reader (Windows): http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5715

Installing stopped working adobe acrobat updater

Tried to install Adobe Acrobat Updater on Macbook but it stopped working and I tried to shut everything down but it still wouldnt shut down. I tried to install Microsoft as well but same problems.

Acrobat Updater??! Acrobat and Reader use their own internal update system and don't need an external updater. What exactly are you referring?

Kan Service Adobe Acrobat Update Service (Adobe ARM Service) niet installeren. Controleer of voldoende rechten heeft om systeemservices te installeren.

Ik probeer de Reader te installeren, maar krijg steeds deze melding: Kan Service Adobe Acrobat Update Service (Adobe ARM Service) niet installeren. Controleer of voldoende rechten heeft om systeemservices te installeren.
Weet iemand hoe dit op te lossen?

Try the following:
uninstall any current Reader version using http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
download and run the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
Make sure you run both uninstaller & installer when logged in as an Administrator user.

I keep getting Adobe Acrobat Updater message. I am using 9.5.2. Keep getting this message(see below)

"Adobe Acrobat Updater has not been able to check for updates recently. Check online to see if solutions are available from the Adobe Web site."
Can anyone help?
Thanks, Alan

As Bill suggest, update Acrobat manually. Here are the settings to disable Auto Update.
Lauch Acrobat.
Click on "Edit" -> "Preferences" -> Updates (on the right side of the panel).
Select the radio button "Do not download or install updates automatically".
Click on "OK".
Regards,
Deepak

Adobe Acrobat Updater is an application downloaded...

This message pops up every 3 days and I don't know why. How do I get rid of it?
"Adobe Acrobat Updater is an application downloaded from the internet. Are you sure you want to open it? Safari downloaded this file on October 19, 2009."

There is a description of the solution on the Adobe website here:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/402/kb402251.html#main_Turn_off_automatic_updates_on_Ma c_OS
In summary, open the AdobeUpdaterPrefs.dat file and change
<AutoCheck>1</AutoCheck>
to
<AutoCheck>0</AutoCheck>
