Yes, you should uninstall previous version of Reader before installing new one.

  • Adobe Reader 9 will not install reporting installatiom package could not be opened

    I have WIN XP PRO with SP3. This is a new machine and is running beautifully except Adobe Reader 8 or 9 will not install.
    At about 94% done the Adobe Download manager stops and shows the following Windows Installer message
    The installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer Package.
    Of course when I click OK. I get the message from the downloader that "Installation operation completed successfully". Which of course is not true.
    Can any one explain what is happening, and how I should address?

    Thanks for the help. Your solution to unregister and register msiexec did not resolve the problem, but it got me thinking and I continued looking down this line of thought through the Microsoft KB articles. There I found a comment per security rights authorization. I had been using an account with administrator rights, but I tried again using the actual administrator account. This worked fine. Adobe 9 is installed and running.

  • Adobe Reader 9 will not install on MacBookPro

    After downloading the proper Adobe Reader 9 for my MacBookPro (Intel processor), I get the message " Adobe Reader 9 cannot be installed on this computer. Make sure your system meets the requirements." Anyone else have the same problem? Please help.

    OK, I just realized the mix up in my earlier posting/s :-(
    The *****.ppc.pkg is the powerpc version which I had downloaded earlier and the ******.i386 is the intel version which is the correct version for my MacBookPro. I use Firefox browser, and at first I thought that since Adobe was not in its list of allowed sites, it was preventing installation. However that is not the case, since the problem persists even after I added Adobe to the list of allowed sites, and even when I downloaded using Safari!
    Mike, yes, I have rebooted a number of times, but have not yet tried to reinstall the OS from the disc. I do not quite understand what you mean by different administrative user; I am the only user. I just downloaded applejack and supposedly it was installed on volume HD, but I do not see it anywhere! Another mystery.

  • Adobe reader 9 will not install

    Hi all
    I need some help, I run a Vista 32 bit PC, Adobe updater has tried to update the reader from version 8.1.2 to 9, it downloads new files successfully, activates the installer almost completes to 99.9% then stops with an error! See the alert box message given below.
    The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
    Or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package AcroRead.msi
    When I close this error box I get another message saying there was an error 1714 older version of adobe 9 could not be removed.
    Likewise there is a copy of adobe 8.1.2 which I am unable to uninstall from the control panel programs and features any help to this solution would be much appreciated.
    Thanks James

    Hello:
    I have had trouble upgrading Adobe Reader 8.1 for many days.
    So, I had never deleted previous releases (i.e Release 6/7 or versions either) so I went back and removed all Adobe Reader releases through the Control Panel.
    I attempted to load Adobe Reader 8.1.2 and received the following message: Error 1316. A Network error occurred while attempting to read from the file: C:\Windows\Installer\Rdr60ENU.msi
    The system backed out all changes and now I am without any Adobe Reader. I do not know what to do as I could not find this error message in the Knowledgebase Search database.
    Please advise

  • Adobe Photoshop CS6 will not install on my Mac.

    Adobe Photoshop CS6 will not install on my Mac. Adobe Application Manager is seeing the Beta version of Photoshop CS6 on my machine.
    I have unistalled/deleted any previous versions of the software, and used the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner tool to flush my machines. Sadly,
    I am still getting the following error:
    Photoshop CS6 Installation Failed
    A beta version of this product exists on the computer. Please quit and uninstall that version before continuing.
    I have unistalled/deleted any previous versions of the software, and used the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner tool to flush my machines. I am now stuck!

    It's strange that you ran the cleaner tool and still didn't worked
    you can try to login to Root user account and then run the cleaner tool , and then check.

  • Adobe Download Assistant will not install.

    I'm attempting to install the trial version of Design Premium CS5.5, but the Adobe Download Assistant will not install. It appears to be installing after I click on the installer--a window loads that says "Installing"--but then nothing happens. Nothing loads. Nothing shows up in the Applications folder. After trying this many, many times (with different browsers and after many refreshes and computer restarts), I'd sometimes get an error message that I need Adobe Air. When I try to install Adobe Air, I have the same issue: nothing happens. What can I do? I am using a brand new MacBook Pro.

    I had a very very similar issue on my MacBook Pro as well with ADA. Solved it about 30 minutes ago. I found a post from late December that suggested trying the following:
    System Preferences
    Energy Saver
    Uncheck "Automatic Graphic Switching" at the top of the page.
    Install Adobe Air
    Profit.
    Hope it works for you too, I was ready to throw this box out the window.

  • Adobe Reader/Acrobat Is not Installed

    I get an error on machines on our work network that says Adobe Reader/Acrobat is not installed. However most cases it is installed on the machine and in most cases it turns out to be the 8.1.1 version of Adobe reader. So what we have noticed is that the permissions do not seem to be right with the .pdf file extention. We manually add the users, power users group to the file extention and then we grant them full control over the extention and in most cases that as well will not work. The next step would be to uninstall 8.1.1 Adobe reader and then reboot. Upon the restart we will log on and install the 8.1.2 update. Sometimes this works but then again I have noticed that the users, power users group is not in the .pdf file extention. Then we will add them in and yet the user will still have the same error message. We have fun out of ideas and the other bad scenario is that this is free software and its very difficult to get support for. Anyone have any ideas?

    Hi snoreaustralia,
    It sounds like you just need to associate the PDF filename extension with Acrobat, rather than Preview. Please see this document from the Microsoft Help for instructions on choosing the default program for opening a particular file type (in your case, PDF): Change which programs Windows uses by default - Windows Help

  • Adobe plug-ins will not install?

    Adobe plug-ins will not install.  I have installed the most current reader and flash player.

    I get redirected to the download page to install flash player and reader.  I then go to the section flash player installs for IT.  Click on the following url http://www.adobe.com/products/players/flash-player-distribution.html   Nothing happens.  Does Adobe flash player include active x plugins?

    Hi Raja,
    I can understand your concern & will guide you in the right direction.
    Let me know the version of Adobe Reader, web browser & operating system installed on your computer?
    You can also refer to this KB doc. for the troubleshooting steps : Configure browser to use the Adobe PDF plug-in

  • Adobe Reader XI will not give me any options to sign my documents

    Adobe Reader XI will not give me any options to sign my documents

    Are you in a company/enterprise where the installer was customized?  If yes, then your administrator may have disabled the Sign panel feature on the right hand side, however, signing a document should still be available in the Digital Signatures Pane on the left side via  a pop-up menu.
