Adobe Reader 9 download and install questions-bear with me here

I just uninstalled Adobe Acrobat Reader 6.0.2 Update and Adobe Reader 6.0.1. Will I need to download the Windows Install Clean Up utility to clean out the old files before Adobe Reader 9 will install correctly, or am I exempt from that with version 6?
Bear with me here. When I clicked on the Download button for Adobe Reader 9, I was instructed that if a dialog box appeared with the option to run or save, click run. Normally when downloading from the Internet, I choose the option to save, and not knowing the best way to proceed, I cancelled the download. Is it best to run this, as instructed, rather than save it?
I'm using dial up. Approx. how long will it take to download Adobe Reader 9?

>Will I need to download the Windows Install Clean Up utility to clean out the old files before Adobe Reader 9 will install correctly
You may not have to but, it wouldn't hurt. Generally, you should use the utility if the install doesn't work.
>Is it best to run this, as instructed, rather than save it?
Either way it doesn't matter. You are downloading the installer rather than the entire application. At the time you choose to run it, it will need to access the internet to get the rest of the files.
>Approx. how long will it take to download Adobe Reader 9?
Can't help you there, depends on the speed of your connection. The entire application installer is around 25MB.
If you'd rather, you can always download the entire installer from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.0/enu/AdbeRdr90_en_US_Std.exe . With that, you can save it to your hard drive and run it later without needing an internet connection.

  • Free download, and install question

    Free download, and install question.
    I need to buy a larger h/d, but till then I would like to put as many programs as possible on a external usb drive that I have hooked up to my PC.  I've been able to do this with some other programs, and would like to try it with my Adobe Reader and Flash.  When down loading and installing it does not give me the option to install in a defferent location other then my C: drive.  Can this be done?  Thanks you?

    From the MSI you have to create a MST (Transforms). In the MST create now the new property INSTALLDIR=F:\, where F: is your USB-drive. If you use then the command
    msiexec.exe /i [MSI] transforms=[MST]
    Adobe Reader should be installed to F:

  • Does Adobe Reader for iOS and Android Support Encryption with PKI Solution?

    Hello there,
    I have been searching for an answer whether or not Adobe Reader for iOS and Android can read encrypted PDF files by public key infrastructure solution (encrypted by a public key, to be decrypted by its private key pair), but to date I have not found the answer.  From the Adobe web site, I understand that Adobe Reader for Android supports to read encrypted document by AES256 but it does not mention about PKI.  I had to guess that it does not support encryption with PKI but I would just like to get a formal answer, and would like to know whether Adobe Reader Mobile will support it. 
    Thanks!

    Hi there,
    Now we have Acrobat DC Mobile but I am still wondering if encryption/description using PKI solution (digital certificates) is supported.  Could anyone let me know?  Thank you.

  • Firefox 7.0.1 works well with Adobe Reader 9.4 and XP, but not with Vista. Fix?

    I run Firefox 7.0.1 at work with XP and the Adobe Reader 9.4 plug-in works fine. At home I run Vista and the Adobe Reader buttons don't work. I can't use the search pane or the up and down buttons to page through. Scrolling works though.

    *** SOME GOOD NEWS HERE ! ***
    Acrobat is soon going to solve this problem in the upcoming update.
    However, as per new FF add on policy, the Create PDF add-on will be disbaled by default. The user would have to manually enable the plugin.
    So, please wait for the next update from Acrobat.

  • Adobe Illustrator 10:Download and install the program on WinXP(lost original CD,have serial)

    As described in the title we have a Illustrator 10 serial but we lost the original CD and are unable to find a suitable download on the internet. We want to reinstall the software because our computer crashed and we had to reinstall the whole system. Thank you for any information regarding this problem.

    I am sorry AljazSpindler90 but I am not aware of anyway to obtain Illustrator 10 at the moment.  You could try purchasing a used copy from someone and then utilizing your serial number.

  • How do I get rid of the popup that says Your browser must have Flash 9.0 or higher installed to add this application. You can download and install the latest Flash Player here

    I have Flash 9.0 installed properly, but I still get the popup every time I open an email.

    I was able to download and install Flash without any issues.  When I try to download and install Reader I lose connection, then tries to reconnect then tells me to cancel.  This happens on XI, X and others versions.  I am using windows 7 professional. How can I get Reader to download and install?

    Initialize > download > open > run > downloading >
    then every time Lost Connection at 50%, reconnecting, cancel...
    When I check downloaded files it is there, but when I try to run it as administrator or otherwise it says not a win32 program.

    I am trying to download Adobe Reader, I have Windows 7 on my PC. Every time I get the download, I click on it to install the program, and I get the usual messages but I never get the install message. When I try the download again, I get a message telling me only one copy of the program can go on the computer. When I check the program list, it is not there. I have to restore my computer before I can attempt the download and install again. I have tried this at least 6 times but cannot install Adobe Reader. Please help me out with this. I really like this product and prefer to use it. I had o originally delete the program, due to an update conflict.

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

  • Unable to download and install Adobe Reader

    While trying to download and install Adobe Reader, when I click on OPEN, nothing happens.  When I click on SAVE, I receive the message download failed.  When I retry, a file is downloaded; however, I am unable to open the file.  I am using Windows 8 and Internet Explorer 11.

    I am using WIN XP PRO SP 3.0 32 bit on a desktop....
    I have tried 3 times to re-install Adobe Reader for Windows, but it keeps on telling me that the installation was unsuccessful...I have tried to find out more, I seem to have met all the requirements, and yes I tried that link, too.....
    Any ideas? I know this Q & A was last year,  but maybe you might have found an answer for me, as I uninstalled my current version before I started, now I wish I had left it alone....but I was trying to fix another problem on Firefox, which said I had to re-install anything from Adobe, to see if it would fix my little problem, now I have a bigger problem!!
    The 1st problem was I cannot upload pics on Facebook, now I find I cannot upload a pic for Adobe, (on my profile page)!!!! I can still insert/upload a pic on Word, however....
    I do hope you might be able to help me, as I am a novice when it comes to fixing problems....
    Many thanks....Peace & Love

    I just downloaded and installed Adobe Reader X.  It does not send the view to the installed printers.

  • Why can't I open Adobe Reader even after I download and install it to my Mac OS X Intel 10.6.6?

    I've tried downloading and installing Adobe Reader 9 and Adobe Reader X for my Mac, but it won't open.
    The problem might be that the highest Adobe Reader available is for the Mac OS Intel 10.5.6 - 10.6.4.
