Adobe Reader 8.0 will not install

I tried many times to install Adobe Reader 8.0, for OS 10.4.8, but even though the "installer" says it is succesful, nothing shows up on the machine except the Adobe install package. Adobe says it works on PowerPC® G3, G4, G5 or Intel® processor with Mac OS X v.10.4.3 or later.
Can I use Adobe Reader on a new iMac, 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo?

iMac, 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   purchased Dec 19 2006

I had the same problem with the intel versioin. Worse, it trashed my old install of 7.05 reader and 5.05 (standard).
I solved the problem by switching to an unmanaged admin user and reinstalling, even though I had admin privileges on the other account

  • I have the Mac OS 10.9.4  I am unable to read PDF's, so thought I would download the latest version of Adobe Reader.  It will not install.  Is it comparable with my Mac OS?

    More information would be good.
    What do you mean by "unable to read PDF's". How are you trying to read them and what exactly happens when you try?
    so thought I would download the latest version of Adobe Reader.  It will not install. 
    Again, what exactly is happening?
    And yes, the latest version should be compatible with your OS.

  • Adobe Reader V9.0 will not install on Windows Vista Ultimate SP1

    I have Windows Vista Ultimate Build 6001 and tried to install adobe reader V9.0. The download was fine but when I run the program (AdbeRdr90_en_US.exe) it returns the error:
    "NOSSO (R) has stopped working
    A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available
    Close program"
    So I guess my questions are
    1. Is there a version of adobe reader that will install on windows vista ultimate SP1?
    or
    2. Is there another pdf reader that will work with Vista Ultimate SP1?
    Thanks for any and all assistance!!

    I am getting the exact same error:
    I have a brand new HP xw8600 systems with 64 bit Vista Ultimate installed.
    Via google I found a suggestion to turn on user account control.
    I went to control panel > User Account > Turn User Account Control
    checked the box and restarted the system. I ran the install as the administrator. It was a minor improvement. Instead of the error coming up immediately like it was, I got the OS confirmation asking if I wanted to install the program. I got the failure right have selecting "yes"
    Running out of clues... any help?

  • Adobe Reader X update will not install

    I got Adobe Reader X by downloading it online from this site I believe. I have no discs or anything. But several times it has wanted to install an update. And when it does I'll get Error 1311 Source File Not found data1.cab
    So why is this happening? Is it because I used a free download off the site and don't have the program on actual disc? There is troubleshooting tips that say uninstall it and all but is this worth doing. I don't want to get rid of it then have to buy it or something. But I am certain I got it off this site so not sure why it won't let me update?

    How does one delete the installer cache files? I couldn't find them in 10.7.2 I IDID find Cache files in the Library, and deleted them all. Still broken.
    My 10.1.1 installer from Adobe runs and immediatly stops about 40% of the way through, and then sits there. The last time I started the install before lunch, and after lunch the installer was in the exact same spot, but said it would take an hour and 45 min to install! I'm running OS 10.7.2 on a 2009 MBP.
    Update:
    OK, I put Adobe Reader 9.4.6 back in my Applications folder. I open it up, and do "check for updates". It says I am up to date, and that there are no new updates.
    The 10.1.1 installer I downloaded DIRECTLY by going to Adobe.com and following the links for my Mac. I even deleted the installer once and then redownloaded it just to make sure I had a good copy. This is the screen I get when I run the installer. It gets to this point in about 30 seconds, always between the "r"and "i" in scripts, and the time remaining just keeps going up. HELP!

  • Adobe Reader 9.3 will not open in Adobe Acrobat Pro 8

    We are currently running Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional Version 8.2.0 with Acrobat Distiller 8 and Adobe Live Cycle Disigner 8.0. I have downloaded Adobe Reader 9.3, but it still will not open 9.3 documents it defaults to the Reader 8 and I get an error message.
    How do I change the default Reader to 9.3 or do I have to buy the upgrade for Adobe Acrobat Pro 8 in order to be able to open and use on-line forms that require 9.3?
    Help!

    Well that is my question, we have a fully authorized and purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro
    8.
    When I do an update for Adobe Acrobat 8, it does not install the updated Reader 9.3.
    In order to update the Reader to 9.3, I have to install it seperately. It does that, but when I open 9.3 it defaults to the 8 Reader.
    So I guess the answer to my question is that I have to update to the 9.3 full version of Adobe Acrobat Pro, what a rip by Adobe just so we can use the newest "free" Reader.

  • ADOBE READER 8.1 WILL NOT WORK-KEEP GETTING ERROR MESSAGE 1606: COULD NOT ACCESS NETWORK LOCATION %APPDATA%

    Have tried to uninstall the Adobe Program but it will not let me.  I keep getting the 1606 error message.  I have went to the Microsoft Help site and it says that the registry may need to be modified.  They also advised you that if you do not modify it correctly you may have very serious problems.

    Please see this Microsoft KB article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/886549/
    Some registry entry may have been corrupted, and it needs to be fixed.  If you don't know how to edit the registry, do you have somebody who is confident enough to edit the Windows registry?
    Anyway, for now I just want you to check something in the registry - don't modify anything yet!
    Click Start | Run | type regedit [Enter]
    Once the Registry Editor is open, drill down to the following subkey
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
    In here you should see multiple entries, one being AppData - what is the data value on the right side?  It should be %USERPROFILE%\Application Data.
    Please close the registry editor now, and report back what you found.

  • Adobe Elements 13 upgrade will not install

    Adobe Elements upgrade to 13 will not install on any other drive but C:\ even though I designated another drive in the installer. It only installs on C:\ and I DO NOT HAVE SPACE ON C. It is replacing Adobe Elements 10 which did install successfully on my drive B!
    If I can't get the upgrade to install on another drive, please send me back my money.

    Hi,
    PSE13 should install successfully in any other drive.
    Can you please share the logs?
    You can use the Adobe  Log Collector tool (Log Collector Tool) and share the corresponding zip file @ [email protected]

  • I have installed a free download from an older version adobe reader and it will not uninstall?

    Most programs unistall easily from the control panels add/remove programs icon application.
    This older version i installed on my computer will not uninstall.
    Any sggestions.
    It tends to stall out or not uninstall at all.
    There is not even an unistall choice available any more on the add/remove programs.

    You can try using this tool to remove all traces of previous version(s) of Reader:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you can download the offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • Adobe Reader 1.5LE will not open after Firmware Update

    Is anyone aware of a solution to this problem? I updated my N95 to the most recent version and found the Nokia Reader software to be unusable (the application itself will not even open). Is there a link from which the software may be downloaded and re-installed? A search of Google, Nokia and Adobe has proven fruitless. Any help would be much appreciated.

    i guess problem caused of a 3rd party application you installed to your phone. If it goes fine with hard reset you shall be carefull when you install new applications to your phone.
