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!

    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!!
    Mark

    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 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

  • Adobe Screwup, Illustrator update will not install (mac)

    Wish we have never joined the cloud services, and we plan to discontinue as soon as possible. What a MESS. Can't install a simple update through the automated process provided by Adobe. You guys are the genuine screw ups, bright people doing dumb things. Have nothing good to say about you at all, can't get help, long time adobe product user really HATES this mess you have created.

    [email protected] I am sorry you have been experiencing difficulties applying the update to Illustrator.  Which update exactly are you trying to apply?  Do you receive any error messages while applying the update?  Finally which operating system are you using?

    You can also install it manually.
    Be sure to have the latest download, then open the DMG file (should do so automatic) and grab the plug in file to drag it in the correct place.
    This is the path:
    Library (That is on root level, not your user account library!) / Application Support/ Adobe? Plug-ins / CS4 / File Formats.
    In this folder should only be one version present and it is called "Camera Raw.plugin" Under info it should say version 5.7.

    How can I download Adobe Reader if it will not accept my password?

    I have spent more than 3 hours (over 2 on your ask the expert where I waited forever and got about 5 minutes of Santos' time!)  He transferred me to this area where there is no one to help me.  I can't adjust my thermostat until I update my adobe reader and can't do that because your website will not take my password.  However, adobe.com will take it.  So what the hell do I do?????
