Can´t deactivate Adobe Acrobat Reader 8 Professional

Hello,
my issue is that i have one orginal Adobe Acrobat Reader 8 Professional.
I installed it on my Computer, but i want to activate it on a different Computer. So i want to return the e-license Choosing Help>Licensing>return E-License.
But i cant push the button. (the letters on the Button are gray)

Hans,
The fact that the Return e-license menu option is disabled (while the product still works normally), means that you are running a version of the product with a volume license serial number. Adobe discontinued the e-license program on March of 2007 so the software no longer requires an e-license to operate.
Simply uninstall Acrobat 8 Professional from the computer you no longer need, and install it on the new machine using the same serial number (you had used on the first machine).
That should be all.

  • Can not "see" Adobe Acrobat Reader DC in Google Chrome Plugins?  Find in IE.

    Downloaded new version of Reader twice and still can not see it in Google Chrome plugsin. Windows 7 with latest version of Google Chrome?
    Suggestions?

    Hi C N,
    Going forward, the Adobe Reader plugin will not be supported in Chrome.  The Chromium team has decided to remove support for NPAPI plugins like Adobe Reader. Here's a blog post that describes their decision - http://blog.chromium.org/2014/11/the-final-countdown-for-npapi.html
    On Windows, it is still possible to change the Chrome default PDF viewing behavior by configuring plugins (chrome://plugins).  When doing that Adobe Acrobat Reader DC is showing as an out of date version.  Enabling that configuration in current versions of Chrome will allow PDF files to open in the Adobe plugin, but that is not a supported configuration.
    On Mac, that configuration is not supported.  When doing that a message is shown that the EULA needs to be accepted before viewing, even if that is no longer required.
    To view PDF files in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, we recommend that you download the file in Chrome and open it from your desktop.

  • Can't download Adobe Acrobat Reader

    I'm using Vista.
    I used to have Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.2.1 but accidentally deleted 1 of the 3 files on the Uninstall Program. I was still able to open a pdf at that time.
    I've decided to upgrade it but it wasn't completed, it's looking for the installation package, AdbeRdr812_en_US.msi.
    We've tried the System Restore, not successful.. I'm not able to open any pdf at that time anymore.
    Tried to unistall the program, it was still not successful.
    I was able to uninstall the program using Advance System Care.
    Now, I'm trying to install Adobe Acrobat Reader 9, got an error: 1606. Tried to use MS Fixit, still got the same error...
    What happened? Will i still be able to download it?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for helping me. Although I cannot download the 9.3 version, I can now view a pdf file although i really have to save the link first.
    I've entered "Windows Installer Cleanup Utility"  on google chrome & I was able to download a software: RegCure.
    I really don't know what happened next, but after that I'm in the process of installing Adobe Reader 8.0 then had a shortcut on desktop.
    Tried to open a pdf file by opening the application & it was successful.
    Tried to view a pdf file online but it's prompting me to install version 9.3, where I'm getting the error :%APPDATA%\Adobe\Acrobat\PREFER~1.
    I think this is better rather than unable to open a pdf before. I'll not insist in upgrading it anymore.. Thank you very much and thanks for your patience. =)

  • Can not open Adobe Acrobat reader, when downloading a document...?

    I downloaded Adobe Acrobat Reader "successfully,"  yet when I try and download a file, the pop up says would you like to download Adobe reader??

    If the above does not resolve your issue, please provide some details.

  • How can I uninstall adobe acrobat reader 10?

    I just installed this program because I thought it was better than Preview! But it's ugly and slow and it takes more than 500MB of space! How can I remove it completely? I can't find the uninstaller! F@#k Adobe!

    Hi John,
    I used File Buddy to search for "reader" on my main drive. This is everything it returned that relates to the Acrobat Reader X:
    /Applications/Adobe Reader.app
    /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Help/en_US/Adobe Reader
    /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Acrobat/com.adobe.Reader
    /Users/retoucher/Library/Caches/com.adobe.Reader
    /Users/retoucher/Library/Caches/com.adobe.Reader.ARM
    /Users/retoucher/Library/Application Support/Expression Media/Plug-ins/Helper Applications/Adobe Reader
    /Users/retoucher/Library/Receipts/com.adobe.Reader
    /Users/retoucher/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.Reader_x86_9.0.plist
    /Users/retoucher/Library/Logs/Adobe/Adobe Reader Updater.log
    /Users/retoucher/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.Reader.plist
    /private/var/root/Library (from old Mac)/Receipts/com.adobe.Reader
    The only one that isn't readily accessible is the .plist file in the /private/var/... folder. But it's only 29Kb.
    For the most part, Mac apps don't spread themselves as pervasively as they do in Windows. Larger apps like Photoshop (or the Adobe suites), Final Cut Studio, Quark, etc., tend to drop more stuff around the drive in the System or main Library folders. But for smaller apps, they tend to be the main app, a few things in the Application Support folders, and a preference file (or a few of them).

  • How can I deactivate Adobe Acrobat 8 on a laptop with a monitor that does not work?

    Or is there some work-around I can use?  I got a new laptop and have reinstalled the program but I keep getting a pop-up that wants me to register it again.  I have but it keeps popping up.  I read in the user's guide for this version that "Note: If you want to install the software on a different computer, you must first deactivate the software on your computer: Choose Help > Activation > Deactivate."  I figure that that is what the problem is.  So now what do I do? It is a little hard to "choose" when the monitor is black.
    As an added complication I am now getting an error message on the pop-up that tell me "A problem was encountered while trying to send information over the Internet."  Help!!!
    I am currently using a Sony Vaio T Series Ultrabook now with Windows 8. My old laptop was a Compaq and was using Windows XP Home Edition.  It was about 10 years old.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Can you plug in a remote monitor? You may have to use the Fn key with the screen icon typically along the function keys to change to the external monitor. If that works, then do what you need. You might also try putting the HD in another machine and see if it works there.

  • I adobe acrobat 7.0 professional. When I open or save a PDF it reverts to Adobe Reader XI. How can I change that to the pro as it has far more editing options.

    I adobe acrobat 7.0 professional. When I open or save a PDF it reverts to Adobe Reader XI. How can I change that to the pro as it has far more editing options.

    You may want to keep Reader. You may want to select Acrobat as your default, but be able to click on a PDF (or PDF link) to open in Reader when needed. There are likely some PDFs that will not open correctly in AA 7 because of new features folks add. Just because it opens in Reader XI does not mean it is in the new format, but just that is the default opening you have. To tell the type of file, you have to open the PDF and check the properties (ctrl-D) and check Description>PDF version.

  • Hi I've just upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion now Quarkxpress 6.5, Adobe creative suite CS2, Adobe Acrobat 7.0 professional and Microsoft Office 2004 will nolonger open. Can anyone please advise me what I can do to get these programs running.

    hi tuggerose
    i think it is bad new for you. if it's any consilation i went through the same thing when i loaded mountain lion when it first came out. i think the problem is that mountain lion is a pure 64bit operating system and the software you have is 32bit. earlier os's were able to emulate 32bit but the new system does not. the answer is new software. i did it and it cost me a load of money and much angst so your not alone.

  • Chrome - Adobe-Acrobat/Reader can not be used to view PDF files in a web browser.

    I can't view PDF files via Chrome (it works on Internet Explorer but I prefer Chrome)  -  the error below has arisen recently on Chrome, though I can't see what has changed.
    "Acrobat plug-in
    The Adobe-Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a web browser. Please exit  Adobe Acrobat/Reader and exit your Web Browser and try again."
    I have looked through Forum articles on similar errors and have tried the following(text copied from other Forum entries)
    Repair Adobe Acrobat (from Acrobat)
    Repair Adobe Acrobat (from Control Panel
    Configure Acrobat  as a helper application: Choose Edit > Preferences., Select Internet on the left., Deselect Display PDF In Browser Using [Acrobat application], and then click OK.Quit Acrobat or Reader
    Create a registry item for Acrobat: with Regedit: If the registry item doesn't exist on the system, do the following: Go to Edit > New > Key and create the missing HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe.Go to Edit > New > String Value and name this key (Default).Select (Default), and then go to Edit > Modify. Type the Adobe Acrobat path in the "Value data" for your product.,restart your computer
    Repair the HKCR\AcroExch.Document registry key: Navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AcroExch.Document., Right-click AcroExch.Document and select Delete; make sure that you have the correct key, and click Yes on any prompts, Right-click AcroExch.Document.7 and select Delete; make sure that you have the correct key, and click Yes on any prompts. Repair your Acrobat  installation
    None has solved the problem. However it still works ok with IE. But I want to stick with Chrome because I find IE is so slow!
    I am using Vista, with Adobe Acrobat standard 9.5.2 and Google Chrome version 23.0.1271.64 m which is marked on Chrome as 'up to date'
    Does anyone know why I might be getting this error on Chrome but not IE?

    I think I have discovered the answer to my own question!
    I have disabled Adobe Reader plug-in, and can now see PDFs in Chrome.
    (Steps: Chrome Menu, Settings option, Click Advanced Settings link, then Content Settings button, then select Disable Individual Plug-Ins, and a list of plug-ins is offered to enable or disable).
    I then get a different result depending on whether or not Chrome PDF viewer is enabled - with it enabled I see the PDF document in Chrome, or with it disabled then the option is offered to download it, but either way I can get it it via Chrome without having to run Internet explorer in another browser window.

    Hello,
    I would like to inform you that not all the browsers and online PDF readers support copying text from a PDF. If you have opened the PDF online, please download PDF file to your computer and then open the file in Adobe Reader.
    Please share a screenshot if the issue still persists.
