Can CS4 run alongside Acrobat V5?

Older Dell at 3.06 with 4GB RAM running Windows XP and Office 2003 (all up-to-date). Currently have Adobe Acrobat V5 on-board. Can I now install Adobe CS4 "without uninstalling" Acrobat V5 (?). Thank you kindly for any assistance you may provide. Regards, Jimbob

CS4 should uninstall 5. This is intentional.
Adobe will not recommend nor support having both versions since they share resources. Having both on the same machine will no doubt break both.

  • Can I run Adobe Acrobat 6 pro and Reader X

    I continue to use Adobe Acrobat 6 Professional for its ability to combine documents, and insert and delete pages in PDFs.  If I download and install Adobe Reader X, will it overwrite Acrobat 6 Pro, rendering it useless?  I realize that 6 Pro if very old, but has all the functionality I need to create pdfs.  I am only interested in upgrading the reader portion because I occasionally receive files created in later versions and would like to view them with all their newer functions.
    Thanks!

    Might work; might not.  Legacy apps (CS2, 3, 4) that weren't built to run on modern operating systems may have trouble with Mavericks.   I think you'll be OK with CS5, 6 and CC.

  • Cant run Acrobat Pro, try to download latest AIR, but installation fails and I can't run Acrobat

    I tried to run Acrobat Pro (don't know version as can't open it) and I am told to download latest Adobe AIR, but after downloading the installation fails with Error# 16820, so now I can't run my Acrobat. Anyone know how to break this very annoying loop please?

  • I am unable to view google ads running alongside and under videos on YouTube. This is only a problem when I use Firefox. If I use another browser, I can see the ads. I do not have adlock as it does not appear in my plug-ins/add ons. Please help..

    I have been using Firefox for about two years. For about a month now I have been unable to view any Google advertisements that run on YouTube pages alongside and under videos. This is important for my business. I would like to stay with Firefox, but this is only a problem when I use Firefox and is not a problem with Internet Explorer or Google Chrome as I checked. I tried uninstalling Firefox and all plugs ins and add ons and then reinstalling it. This did not work. Firefox seems to be blocking the Google codes that enable the ads to run on the pages. I look forward to your help. Thank you.

    CS2 is very old and reached its "end of life" a while back.  So probably won't run on modern operating systems.  If you can still run it, you'll need to uninstall what you have and re-install with the download link below to activate it.

  • Can I run Acrobat 9 Pro and X Pro, can't afford plugin upgrades

    Can I run Acrobat 9 Pro and X Pro
    Can't afford plugin upgrades from 9 to X

    If you wish to run both the version on the same machine. It's not a supported configuration as Version 9 and X Pro share the same namespace and you may run into issues which would be hard to fix.
    I would recomend to use single version. Let me know, if you need more information.

    Some people have reported success with opening Photoshop before opening AI. Some how the aips are registered there and are then available to work in AI.

  • Can Acrobat XI be installed on a Windows PC where CS4 (which includes Acrobat Pro 9) is installed?

    Can Acrobat XI be installed on a Windows PC where CS4 (which includes Acrobat Pro 9) is installed?
    I have previously been told by Adobe tech support that the applications included in CS4 cannot be upgraded individually, and my guess would be that Acrobat XI and Acrobat Pro 9 cannot coexist on the same machine.  But I wanted to check and make sure.

  • Can I run AE CS4 and CS3 on same system? +Ram Q's

    I haven't been able to teach my motion graphics course in a year so I am behind on AE doings and the state budget cuts cancelled the purchase of my new laptop SO I only have CS3.  I am scrambling to make this course work!!
    Q:  Can I run AE CS3 and CS4 on the same system?  (we have CS4 on some lab machines but some students have only CS3 at home)
    Q:  Blimpo AE CS4 says it needs "2Gb RAM" vs CS3's "1Gb RAM for DV" (our application) - will CS4 even install and start w/o 2Gb?  If so, can one at least do simple, straightforward work with 1Gb or is it hopeless?
    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    If so, can one at least do simple, straightforward work with 1Gb or is it hopeless?
    "Simple, straightforward work" is very much a matter of definition. As long as we talking basic title, menu and background design at SD resolutions (PAL/ NTSC) or below (web) without resorting to oversized source files, it might work to a degree. I doubt, however, you will ever be abel to do anything remotely HD. Memory errors and warnings will be a constant companion....

  • My company runs Adobe Acrobat XI on a PC.  Our PC went down and we replaced it with a new one.  We need Acrobat XI on it and have bought it already.  How can I get it put onto our new computer?

    Hi chrisb75729216,
    I checked with your account but could not find any order history so you might be using another email address on forums.
    You will first need to deactivate Acrobat from old machine and then install Acrobat on the new machine by activating with the same serial number.
    Please download Acrobat XI pro from here: Other downloads
    If you have single user license, then remember that the software can be activated on maximum two computers, say your desktop at work and laptop at home.

  • Can i run the free version of Adobe Acrobat DC across more than one of my laptops during this test run

    Can i run the free version of Adobe Acrobat DC across more than one of my laptops during this test run

    You mean the trial version?  Yes, you can run it on as many devices you want.  Each device will have its own 30-day trial limit.

  • Can you run indesign cs4 on a laptop without internet connection

    I believe that Indesign CS4 checks over the internet before opening. If that is the case can you run it on a laptop without an internet connection?
    Thanks

    From an earlier post by Nicolas Mertens:
    "here's what I got from Customer Services about this problem:
    [Help] files are located in the following location:
    C:/Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Help/en_us/InDesign/6.0. Also
    from that location, you can launch the file 'index.html' and this
    should direct you to *the online help that you would access through
    the program itself.*"
    I found that the files are not at that location, but at C:/Program
    Files/Common Files/Adobe/Help/en_GB/InDesign/6.0 (this is in Windows
    Vista, by the way). "
    Yours would presumably be at [the German equivalent of
    ..]/de-DE/InDesign6.0, or whatever your locale is (AT, CH...)

    Also, tell me what exact error do you face when you try running Acrobat.
    Please ensure that you are logged in as administrator and anti-virus is disabled on your machine.
    Hope to hear from you.

  • CS4 Web Premium Acrobat won't accept serial number

    Acrobat 9 keeps asking for a serial number and doesn't accept the CS4 serial number. I upgraded from CS3WP and all the other applications work fine. I hate to reinstall again because that means reinstalling CS3 and CS4... any ideas?
    MBP 15" (late 2007) 2.6Ghz, 4GB RAM running 10.5.5

    Bob - it seems that Adobe support don't provide much help either.  After taking about half an hour to grasp the situation, the support rep I spoke to suggested wiping CS4, running the clean script, running Windows Installer Cleanup, and then reinstalling everything - a good eight hours work when we have better things to do.
    The best method is to uninstall Acrobat using its own .msi file: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Setup Files\{some-random-string}\AcroPro.msi - rick-click in Windows Explorer, select uninstall, and reboot when its done.
    Then use the CS4 disks to reinstall Acrobat (it will be down towards the bottom of the component list), run another CS4 application to update the registration data (which will happen automatically if the rest od CS4 is still activated) and then Acrobat will behave itself.
    However, it has to be sad that this particular registration system is very counterproductive, as can be seen by searching this forum of online. Why not just provide the Acrobat key with the software and save customers all the hassle?
