Adobe X Installed- Reverts Back to Missing 7.0.9 installation files

Hi Everyone,
When Adobe X was released, I installed the update. Now, when I try to open PDFs, a window appears prompting me to select a program in which to open the PDF, none of which work. I tried to uninstall X and reinstall it; however, now a window appears indicating that I need to select a location from where the Adobe 7.0.9 installation package was saved to (which is typically on my C drive). The 7.0.9 installation package disappeared from my computer when X was installed. I also tried to install versions 8 and 9 of Adobe, however, error messages also appeared reverting back to the 7.0.9 installation package. The answer to my problem appears to be reinstalling the earlier version, or the "foundation" for updated versions.
The system restore feature on my computer dates back only a couple of months, and has been no help. I have also tried to locate the 7.0.9 or 7.0.0 versions for installation on the internet and the Adobe website, with no luck. Does anyone have any suggestions? I absolutely need Adobe to open PDFs when I start my MBA program in a couple of months. Using the "quick view" for PDFs is okay, but not ideal.
Thank you in advance.

You could try using the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility to remove all traces of any existing versions of Reader previous to installing the version you want. This utility is no longer supported by Microsoft because it can conflict with Win 7, but you can still find it in sites like http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459

My Adobe programs keep reverting back to CC instead of 2014.

My Adobe programs keep reverting back to CC instead of 2014. I have tried restarting my computer as well as uninstalling and re-installing Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. InDesign won't install at all but it doesn't give me an error code, it just says "Installation Error."

Is this about internet shortcuts on the desktop or bookmarks on the Bookmarks Toolbar?

I have Adobe reader installed. However, I am unable to open some files because it is asking for Adobe's approval to open the files. How do I do this please?

That message is NOT from Adobe, and has nothing to do with Adobe's approval for anything.
Quite the opposite: Adobe Reader is NOT YET RUNNING, Adobe aren't involved. Some other app or program is putting out that message. Have you tried giving that permission?

I'm having trouble installing firefox 5 on my laptop. The installation file isn't working!!

every time run the installation file it starts extracting and after that the program exits without installing firefox.

Please send me an update when this is fixed! I would like to use the browser as I'm fed up with IE, but I can't even FIND the files after they "extract". I'm a VERY good 'end user', and can usually find just about anything, but I'm at a loss.
Thanks for your PROMPT attention!

Adobe Pro 11 reverting back to trial version

I have a client that has a 5 user license for Adobe Pro 11. This is not CC but standalone with one copy installed on five different Citrix servers running Windows Server 2008 R2.
Citrix is setup for load balancing with only the specific five users having access to the application. This allows these users to access a licensed copy of the program.
This is not a new installation and about 9-10 months ago we had to reinstall the application on all of the Citrix servers due to this problem.
A single user reported being prompted that the trial period had expired and the software needed to be registered. I logged into the specific server, was able to duplicate the message and proceeded to re-register Adobe Pro 11. I verified that the remaining four servers were not reporting the same error.
We need a way to correct this permanently, with the servers setup for load balancing we can't just have the user log into a different server.

It saying your key is invalid seems like the essence of the problem, like the key had a time limit as being for a student version, or Adobe has blacklisted the key due to it being stolen or not authorized for use for some other reason. Where did you purchase the key/product from, Adobe, or some less-than-obviously-reputable place?
As far as you’re getting hung up on, perhaps the phone lines between wherever you are and India are a little iffy.

Adobe Acrobat X Standard - I have licence but need the installation file

Hello,
My system crashed an I need a reinstallation of acrobat X standard. Where can I find the installation program. Thanks for reaction!

Try http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-acrobat-x-10-pro-reader-suite-direct-download-links-ddl.ht ml, though you may have to move to a different part of the site to get Std. I agree with TSN. When you purchase something like Acrobat, you should always make a backup.

Hello,
I bought me a new Laptop. At the pre installed configuration there is a license for Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard included.
But there was no installation files.
Can everyone give me a hint where I can find them

Hi,
the installation files are integrated in the recovery procedure and are not stand alone.
It is a Sony Vaio but I expect to get no answer from Sony.
Are there anywhere the installation available at the web because a product key is available

YOu need to be clear about the products you are using, so we can help you. In particular there is no trial of Adobe Reader, it is free and keeps running. Sounds like you are using some versions of Acrobat - which?
YOu must properly uninstall the trial, don't just delete files or you may get a mess impossible to recover.

I recently installed the trial version of Adobe XI and the trial period ended, so I wanted to revert back to the version I already had. I did not see any uninstall feature and my old version was apparently replaced by the trial version. I cannot re-instal

I recently installed the trial version of Adobe XI and the trial period ended, so I wanted to revert back to the version I already had. I did not see any uninstall feature and my old version was apparently replaced by the trial version. I cannot re-install a previous version b/c I need both a product Id (GOd only knows where that is now) and a way to uninstall the trial. Any ideas?

When you installed the trial, there should have been an option to have ignored your current installation and leave it. Apparently you skipped that case. To uninstall the trial (in Windows) go to Control Panel>Programs & Features and select the Acrobat XI and choose uninstall. After the uninstall run http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html to clean up your system. HOWEVER, if you see your old Acrobat in that window, do not run the cleaner, but do a repair on the old version.
You did not mention the old version you had. You might try from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html. As for the S/N, you should have register and if so you can get it from Adobe. The instructions are at http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html#adobeproductdownload.
Be sure to backup any download of the old installer and the S/N to CD or backup HD for future use. They will not likely continue to be available.

I updated to new ios and now it is not syncing properly. How can i revert back to the previous installed version?

I updated to new ios and now it is not syncing properly. New songs are not showing up on the ipod display but when I view the device on my computer, they are in the playlist but there is a dashed circle beside the missing songs. It previously synced perfectly before the IOS update. How can i revert back to the previous installed version?

Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.
Try:

How to uninstall PSE7 and revert back to PSE5 organizer prior to PSE8 install

I have a Vista 64-bit system and currently have PSE5 abd PSE7 installed. When I installed PSE7, I converted the PSE5 Organizer catalogs, but decided I didn't care for some aspects of PSE7 and reverted back to using PSE5. So, the PSE5 catalogs are current and the PSE7 catalogs aren't up to date. I now want to install PSE8 but want to be sure that it "grabs" and converts the Organizer catalogs from PSE5, not the out-of-date PSE7 catalogs. Can anyone tell me the best way to attempt this? Should I uninstall PSE7 and then install PSE8 so there will only be the up-to-date PSE5 catalogs available for converting to PSE8? I'm not even sure where Vista puts the catalogs. Everything seems to be different with a 64-bit system. Any assistance would be appreciated.

You can find the PSE7 catalog file at the following location in Vista:
C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Elements Organizer\Catalogs\
There would a file having extension of .pse7db which you can delete to avoid PSE 8 grabbing it.
Let us know if you still have any queries,
Cheers,

Can I revert back after upgrading to Mavericks operating system? Can't get my Adobe software to run properly.

Can I revert back to a previous operating system after upgrading to Mavericks? Since installing Mavericks I can't get my Adobe software to run properly.

Thanks, for your replies. I've got a late 2012 iMac (2.7 GHz Intel Core i5). I was previously running Snow Leopard - Not sure exactly what version but it was right up to date.
The Adobe software I'm using is the Creative Cloud. Specifically InDesign cc. Whenever I try to browse folders through the InDesign software the browser window closes before I can do what I need to do. So I cant place images into my InDesign document or save documents properly.
On the Adobe website it says that they worked with apple to fix any bugs before the Mavericks release but there's lots of complaints on the forums. I've left a bug notification with Adobe but I don't expect that they will be offering any solutions or software updates any time soon.
I really just want to revert back without too much trouble.

My Adobe Creative Suite 6 (I guess student edition) expired HELP! Can I revert back to CS5??

Can I revert back to CS5?? (I have a comic deadline to make.)
I know 5 is registered here on the site. It was a digital copy. I looked at my old laptop. (3 years old or so.) and noticed 5 on there. I can still use it. Some how my CS6 just up and quit working. Which I thought was funny considering I bought it the same way I bought my CS5. I am working on two comic series of my own that are going to be published as E-books and physical books and need some advice.
I am left without Illustrator to use and I was right in the middle of working on all my character concept art to get trademarked.
( I can't afford the 357 upgrade to "re-open:" CS6 so I am left without anything to work on. All of my Illustrator files are also JPEG so i can view them all, but I was in the middle of new artwork when my CS6 decided to become a trial and I got locked out once the "Trial Period" ended.
I am a legally blind Cartoonist and Comic Artist and these series are my first real big projects that are getting published. I really don't want to have this process stopped for any longer than it has been. It's been almost a month since I was able to draw. (I can draw on paper, but with my eyesight Adobe Creative suite is perfect for me and causes less strain on my eyes.) It's my preferred platform to work on as far as drawing.
Hope somebody can help.
(I just got married so I am low on funds at the moment. This project is my baby and I do not want to leave it unattended to for so long.)

STEP 1:
FOUND MY PROBLEM (or half of it.)
I went into my computer and then program files.
I found that EVERY SINGLE TIME I click any of the Adobe Applications that say (64 Bit) they give me that error message I showed you in an above post.
STEP 2:
I clicked Adobe in program files.
STEP 3:
I can SUCCESSFULLY open any of my Adobe Apps that are not (64 bit)
It turns out all of my desktop shortcuts of my adobe apps were all coincidentally 64 bit ones that don't work.
SO- in conclusion I think I have partly solved my problem.
I replaced all of my app shortcuts with the normal program files and NOT the 64 bit ones. BUT- I am worried....aren't the 64 bit versions of ANY apps you buy important?
I do feel worried since my WINDOWS 7 PROFESSIONAL is a 64 bit OS. This would effect my programs correct?
Feel free to use my story to help you solve other customers' stories. I would like my problem looked into, but I am only half as stressed now.

Difficulty scanning slides on my Epson V600 running Lion, Adobe Photoshop CS6, and can no longer use the Epson scan application or the plug in for Photoshop. Should I revert back to leopard in my time machine to finish scanning my family slides?

I am running Lion 10.7.5, Adobe Photoshop CS6, scanning slides on my Epson V600 and can no longer use the scan application or the plug in for Photoshop. Should I revert back to leopard in my time machine to finish scanning my family slides?
In 10.7 there is not a twain that works with Photoshop for importing with all the options needed to scan transparencies. I noticed that when I was scanning in October 2012 I was still using CS6 so somehow I was managing to be able to use all the scan features.
They sell 2nd party software (VieScan and Silverscript)which I found to be just mimially OK and very hard to use.
I just want to scan like I used to.
Can I use time machine to go back to an earlier operating sysytem LEOPARD, and then do my scans and then save the photos and them go back to the LION system?
I spent 7 hours trying crazy solutions - downloading Windows CS2 Photoshop and then using a program so I could run it on the apple. Then I couldn't figure out how to put a plug in for the scanner in the stupid windows Photoshop program. Googgling the computer like a mad woman trying to ask questions. I am not giving up...
Please help if you can...
Thanks...

I assume you've tried using Image Capture. Give VueScan a try.
