Adobe Pro 9.0 Licensing / Upgrade issues

We have 15 users with 9.0, most of whom periodically experience the well known Error "Licensing has stopped working". The licensing repair tool does not fix for long nor does any of the other lengthy resolutions detailed in the licensing stopped working KB on adobe.com
My question -
1. How do I upgrade users from 9.0 to 9.5 if 9.0 no longer has any updates available? Will the 9.0 license cover this and how can I get media / install file as I can only find update files to an existing 9.5 file (we have tested a problematic user on a new version of Adobe and this is shown to resolve the issue)

Hi Stefan,
You can download the updates for Acrobat 9 from: Update, patch | Acrobat, Reader 7.x - 9.x | Windows
or : ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/win/9.x/
For licensing error please try the following:
Delete the Adobe PCD folder and caps.db file:
Windows: \Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe PCD
\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\caps\caps.db
Launch Acrobat, enter the serial number and check.
Regards,
Rave

Wcs license upgrade issue

Dear all,
We have two 4400 controllers which support 50 Access points each and wcs with 100 base license.Now we added 5508 controller supports 50 access points.wcs is upgraded with another 50 ap license.The 5508 controller is joined to wcs and the licence showing permanent.WCS showing all aps and showing both 100 and 50 licence as permanent.
But the issue is while loging into the wcs it showing the error message as"The system is in violation of license.The number of APs registered is greater then licensed."
What might be the reason.Please help me.
Attaching the screen shot.
Thanks in Advance
Bose.

Because your WCS is still licensed for 100 APs ....
There are 2 license level : Base and PLUS.
You had a 100 AP Base license.
You bought a PLUS_UPG license which upgrade 50 out of your 100 AP count to PLUS.
Result : you now have 100 AP licensed on WCS, out of which 50 have the "PLUS" feature set.
You should have ordered a "BASE ap count 50" license. or if you want to go to plus, a "plus_UPG" license but for the 100, and then a plus ap count 50.

Macbook Pro 4.1 RAM Upgrade Issues

Hello Apple Community. I recently decided to upgrade the RAM on my macbook pro 4.1 (15", early 2008, 2.5 GHz). I purchased and installed 4gb of Mushkin memory (2x2GB PC2-5300 SODIMM), and the computer booted up just fine. When I go to "About this Mac", it still shows 2GB of RAM, 2x1GB. When I click on "More Info" the same holds true while specifically looking at the memory. For some reason my computer is reading each 2GB card as a 1GB card.
Any suggestions as to what may be the issue?
Thank you in advance.
PS. I've been searching forums and the web for the past 2hrs in hopes of finding an answer.

Okay, I will try this out. Previously I had done something similar to that which you suggested, which leads me to think that the RAM possibly could've been mislabeled and I was given 2GB (2x1GB RAM). I took one stick out and booted up the computer and my mac really took its time starting up. When I checked the "About this Mac" section it now said 1GB of RAM. I'll try again with both cards, but it looks like I will be sending them both back for replacements.

IDSM2 license upgrade issue

Hi folks,
i have to buy IPS license for my 2 IDSM-2 mosules in order to upgrade them from IDS to IPS.
I take a look to Cisco pricing list and i found 2 software code and i don't know what is the correct one: could you help me ?
1)CON-SU1-WS-IDS2K9
2)CON-SU1-WSIDSXLK9
3)CON-SU1-WIDSBNK9
What is the difference between them ?
I need to purchase IPS license for my IDSM-2 and signature update.
Thanks in advance,
regards,
MArco

You can apply the IPS-sig-S202-minreq-5.0-1.pkg Signature Update and all following signature updates to all 5.0(x) versioned sensors as well as the newly released 5.1(1) version.
These signature updates contain new signature definition parameters to support the new version 5.1(1) sensors. These new signature definition parameters are also seen on version 5.0(x) sensors, but are ignored if configured on version 5.0(x) sensors.
The sensorApp binary on the 5.0(x) sensors is updated during the signature update so that the new sensorApp can read in, and properly ignore those new signature update parameters. This was done so that a single IPS signature update file can be used across all version 5.x sensors.
The new signature definition parameters have been added in version 5.1(1) and are ignored if configured on version 5.0(x) sensors. Any signatures requiring these parameters do trigger on version 5.0(x) sensors.
Be aware of the following installation caveats:
You can apply the IPS-sig-S202-minreq-5.0-1.pkg Signature Update and all following signature updates to version 5.0(1), 5.0(2), 5.0(3), 5.0(4), 5.0(5), and 5.1(1) sensors.
However if you apply any of the signature updates to a 5.0(1) sensor, then you should not upgrade to the 5.0(2) or 5.0(3) Service Packs. Similarly, if you apply the signature update to a 5.0(2) sensor, you should not upgrade to the 5.0(3) Service Pack. The 5.0(2), and 5.0(3) Service Pack installations scripts do not carry forward the new sensorApp binary (CSCsb49911). Upgrading to 5.0(2) or 5.0(3) results in sensorApp generating errors while trying to read the new configuration, and prevents sensorApp from monitoring for attacks. For this reason the 5.0(2) and 5.0(3) Service Packs have been removed from CCO.
If you apply the signature update to a 5.0(1) sensor, you should upgrade to either 5.0(4) or 5.0(5) Service Packs, or 5.1(1) Minor Update. They do not have the CSCsb49911 issue.

Macbook Pro late 2008 Memory upgrade Issue

Dear Gurus,
I have a late 2008 15" Macbook Pro 2.4 Ghz with 2 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 installed, I just brought a pair of corsair (2*4GB) DDR3 (CMSO4GX3M2A1333C9) memory upgrade and installed it in my macbook pro. I'm running OS-X Lion 10.7.1 before the upgrade now in About This Mac menu show that I have 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 and everything seem to be ok only when I shutdown and power up again the boot time seem to take longer than it is with previous 2GB memory module installed, it took almost 2 minutes from the power button pushed untill my macbook display the login screen. Question: Is the Ram upgrade is OK or I need to return the Ram and get the 1066 Mhz to replace my 2 Gb Ram. How can my mac report that I have 8GB 1333 MHz DDR3 Ram while the system only at 1066 Mhz bus
Best regards,

RAM will clock back to match the system bus as long as it's otherwise compatible. Reporting utilities tend to read the RAMs design speed.
It it works, ignore it.
As for this part of your question:
only when I shutdown and power up again the boot time seem to take longer than it is with previous 2GB memory module installed, it took almost 2 minutes from the power button pushed untill my macbook display the login screen.
that's normal. The OS does a "power-in self test" or "POST" at startup that includes RAM checking. The more RAM installed, the longer the test takes. You quadrupled you RAM, so the increase in start time does not surprise me.

Adobe Pro 9 Issues since 6/17/11 Update

Adobe Pro 9 presents the following issues since I updated it on 6/17/11:
Before the update, I could select multiple pages in the Pages thumbnail view by using my Shift or Ctrl key while selecting the thumbnails with my mouse, this no longer happens since the update. When I click either my Shift or Ctrl and try to click on the thumbnails, nothing happens! and,
Before the update whenever I did a Find for something on a converted document, that which met my search criteria would be highlighted on each page. This, too, is no longer the case since the update.
I REALLY wish I could go back to Adobe Pro 9 before the 6/17/11 update because the update has been more of a downgrade.

Obviously there were no answers to this issue. In reading this was an ongoing issue that has yet to be resolved within Adobe. It appears to go back several years with numerous threads on very similar issues. Does Adobe just not care about this that anyone can see. As a small business the constant upgrading is very inefficient cost wise.

Adobe Pro 7 Blues

Hello
I'm seeing three issues with Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0.
The first issue is when users copy and paste they keep getting an error message to debug or quit. Users are copying from Adobe Acrobat 7.0 and pasting to Word XP (2002) or an in-house program. It's frustrating because every time users copy and paste Adobe Acrobat Pro 7 is closing down.
The second issue is when attempting to print PDFs from the network to a Xerox printer. The printing preferences chosen is for collated duplex and when the PDFs printout from the copier it has stapled all copies together as one copy instead of individually stapled copies. I've tried printing from another Xerox using Adobe 7 and the same issue exist. The issue does not exist with Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Standard.
The third issue is with hyperlinks and Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0. If a user clicks on a link in Word XP (2002), it looks like Adobe Pro 7.0 will open but it actually just pops in and out. I Google the issue and every site suggested to update Adobe Acrobat 7.0. So I did the update to 7.1.0 and rebooted. Afterwards when we attempted to open Adobe Acrobat 7 we keep getting an internal error message and Adobe will not load. So I had to rollback the update and then we were able to open Adobe Pro 7.0. This issue also does not exist with Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Standard.
Users are running Windows XP SP3.
Any suggestions/ideas on resolving these issues would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The font issue may be that the font was not embedded in the PDF and AA7 is just looking for the best fit to the font. If it is an early version of AA7, then you may have a font issue. I think it was AA7 that had 4 fonts that were a problem. Those 4 fonts could be removed and the problem would go away. I had a PDF of a conference proceeding where all the titles showed in Greek due to the problem. They were fine with AA6. I deleted the 4 fonts for AA7 and the problem went away. The updates for AA7 may resolve this issue, I am not sure.

How do I virtualize Adobe Pro XI without error:16 ?

I have installed and virtualised Adobe Pro XI enterprise licensed edition successfully and can get it to work on one machine. When it is deployed to additional machines it gives error:16 - please uninstall and re-install.

Microsoft App-V isn't a supported environment for Adobe Acrobat. Only Adobe Reader 11.0.1 and greater are supported on Microsoft App-V. I believe this is because of the whole lack of support for Virtual Printer Devices in the App-V environment.
I don't see Symantec SWV listed anywhere in the ETK as being a supported environment.

Only Citrix and Windows Terminal Services are currently supported for Adobe Acrobat.

I have a DVD Acrobat Pro 9. I upgraded laptops and trying to install but the DVD is not readable. How can I get a new DVD or Download Acrobat Pro 1. The product is registered and I have the serial number. PS: Contacting Adobe on this issue is impossible..

I have a DVD Acrobat Pro 9. I upgraded laptops and trying to install but the DVD is not readable. How can I get a new DVD or Download Acrobat Pro 1. The product is registered and I have the serial number. PS: Contacting Adobe on this issue is impossible... direct support stinks.

Download AA 9 Pro from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html. Make a new backup for your archive. You might also take the DVD to your library to see if it is a drive problem. You might also carefully clean the DVD with water and soap (do not use anything that would scratch the surface or you have destroyed it for sure) and see if that solves the problem. This is particularly an issue if you have finger prints or other crud on the DVD. However, it could also be a bad drive as I mentioned. Hopefully the download solves your problem in any case (I would backup the download to CD and/or backup HD).

I was online earlier this week and liked the forms with submit buttons and the Adobe site directed me to upgrade to Adobe PRO XI in order to use forms so I bought five licenses. Just had it installed today and it is now asking me to sign up for forms Central in order to use this feature. What gives? The Adobe site gave me the impression that I would have this feature after purchasing the new upgrade. I would not have purchased the upgrade, let alone five of them had I know this. Am I missing something?

Acrobat XI comes with the Fromscentral AIR application and the ability to create PDF forms authored in Formscentral. To have more than the free (1 form with 50 responses) level account you need to sign up for a Formscentral subscription.

Upgrade to adobe pro DC, Adobe ID used, gets responce that its been used before

we are upgrading to adobe pro DC, from version 9 pro, and when trying to use the same adobe ID it says the ID was used to activate two other, and is blocking me from using it. is there a limit to how many and ID can be used on. I’m trying to avoid everyone having their own ID's .
I would like to get to the point of creating a package but first need to get the ID issue straightened out.
thanks

I was doing some research on this. Only Acrobat X and XI qualify for an upgrade. Not Acrobat 9 Pro.
If you own Acrobat Pro X or XI – or Acrobat Standard X or XI – you also qualify for a reduced price when purchasing a perpetual (one-time) license.

I am having to reinstall Adobe Pro because of a hard drive failure. I have lost the License Key and need to know how to retrieve it so I can reinstall the product.

How do I retrieve the Adobe Pro License key/# so I can reinstall on my computer. I had to have the hard drive replaced due to failure and don't have the necessary information to reinstall Adobe Pro.

As this was a 1,000 USD + purchase I did registered back in 2008 when I got my copy of "Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium". And now I'm in the same situation as you. I did go to manage my account and found my serial number.
My disk crashed completely and I got everything back and running from my Time Machine backup. A few days ago Illustrator said there was a licensing issue. I tried all their gradual solutions up to the very last one: Reinstalling.
I did that and inserted the Serial number; it worked. Now that I'm opening the Adobe Acrobat Pro it requires me to input the serial and it says is invalid!
Anyone has an idea about this?

Adobe PDF Preview Handler Issue in WIndows 8 64 Bit Machine - After installing Adobe Pro 11.0.10

Hi Guys ,
We are facing a serious issue with Windows 8 and Adobe PDF Preview Handler . We are using the PDFPrevHndlr.dll from Adobe to show PDF Previews in our application. It is working fine in Windows 7 and Vista and for some reason it is not working in Windows 8.1 64 bit machines after upgrading to Adobe Pro 10.0.10 . Please help us figure out what is the root cause of this issue .
During a close analysis we have found that the PrevHost.exe( Windows component ) is failing soon after it is being invoked . Any help in this is much appreciated.
Regards
Sree

Hi Sree,
According to your description, your case related to Adobe PDF Preview Handler. This is third-party product. I am afraid this is out of our support. Please ask in their special forum

By the way, after do some search, it seems not working for 64bit machine,
>> It is working fine in Windows 7 and Vista
Also work fine in win7/vista 64bit????
If your scenario is not working in 64bit machine, try to put "adobe pdf preview handler 64-bit fix" in search engine. Good luck.

Upgrading from Adobe Pro 8 to XI

While upgrading from Adobe Pro 8 to XI it asks if I want to "Deactivate EPIC_APP_118". What is it and should I?

Looking through the forums, it appears that error message is related to a Zenworks Licensing Manager System. If you are installing in a enterprise environment, you might want to check with your IT people before you mess with uninstalling and installing new software.
