Can't install or remove Acrobat 8 (CS3 Web Premium for Mac)

I installed CS3 Web Premium on my Mac (Leopard 10.5.1).
All is well, except Acrobat 8 Professional doesn't install. When I mount the DVD and try to install it, it says it's already installed on my computer. Except, it isn't. So, since it thinks it's already installed, there isn't an uninstall option available anywhere.
I've removed the entire CS3 suite, ran the utility Adobe provides for cleaning everything, and yet it still doesn't work.
Any ideas? Is this something I have to wait for Adobe to fix due to Leopard? Every other CS3 app works fine, except Acrobat.
Thanks!

Hi Amitoj,
I tried your procedure, but it does not work.
In /Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers, there are two files: Adobe InDesign CS3 and Add or Remove Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium.
I clicked on the Add or Remove Adobe CS3 Web Premium link, which launches the Setup file for CS3. In the Manage Adobe CS3 Web Premium Components screen, I can choose between Install or Reinstall, or Remove Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium Components.
If I select Install or Reinstall and click Next, the next screen shows that Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional is already installed (but it's actually not). In the bottom panel, titled Select the components you want to reinstall, Acrobat, of course, is not listed since the installer think it's already on my system, as I just noted.
If I press Back and select Remove Adobe CS3 Web Premium Components, all my CS3 applications are listed, except Acrobat 8!
So, I can't install Acrobat 8 since it thinks it's already installed, and I can't remove it because, well, I can't figure out why.
Thanks for your help.

  • I can't install Flash Builder from the Web Premium suite, what should I do?

    I just downloaded the Adobe Creative suite 5.5 Web Premium and am about to install the program but notice a note next to the Adobe Flash Builder program... it explains that my system doesn't have the requirements needed for this program. I checked and it explains further details stating that I need to have a • Mac OS X v10.5.6–10.6 and I doubled check which version I have and it's OS X 10.5.8. Doesn't this actually mean that it does meet the requirements?
    Please advise as to what can be done to be able to download this specific program.

    We do still need more information such as how much memory you have,

    requirements and try to post for each of the items within the 
    requirements.  The system requirements for Web Premium can be found

    Yes, a single user license allows you to have the software installed and activated on two different machines.

  • I can't install Fireworks form my CS5 Web Premium files

    I've tried ti install Fireworks from my CS5 Web Premium suite and it just won't install. I get a list of errors that seem to show some kind of incompatibility with my existing installations. (Photoshop, dreamweaver, etc).
    I have no clue as what to do next. Support chat told me, and this is a quote, "contact us through here: https://forums.adobe.com". It's like being sent into a black pit.
    I came to the forums, looked at posts which seemed to fit my problem and was dumbfounded at the lack of support. Question after question, some years old, unanswered and basically ignored. It gives one a feeling of being abandoned and it's killed any brand loyalty I had for Adobe products.  I guess, like Flash, most of Adobe's software offerings are no longer as relevant as the were.

    So, after getting support through twitter and trying the recommendations... no luck. There was and exit code 7 which took us down the wrong path.
    I did however; finally solve the issue. After reviewing the install log a little closer, I found that the installer was looking for a drive which did not exist. So, I stuck in a USB key, called it the missing drive letter and the installation worked. Funny though, as far as I can tell, no data was installed on the missing drive. It's empty.
    Note: I was using the default (windows 7)  install path C:\Program Files\Adobe

  • Error 1335: file corrupted Media.cab (CS3 Web Premium)

    ING
    Hello,
    I have Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium and am having trouble reinstalling the applications.
    I had to remove them from my switch and when I reinstall the error 1335 appears corrupted file, in case Media.cab, I saw my media and is a risk with it, but do not know whether this risk is due. I wonder if someone had the same problem, it failed to respond or if you can put the Media.cab of CS3 Web Premium for me to download.
    Have I contacted the media in Brazil, but the clerk informed me that they do not give more support for this product and that I should contact the forum to try to solve.
    (Note: Sorry my English, translated on the Web)

    Olá,
    Tenho o Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium e estou tendo problemas em reinstalar os aplicativos.
    Tive que remover eles do meu comutador e quando fui reinstalar aparece o Erro 1335 de arquivo corrompido, no caso Media.cab, estive vendo minha mídia e está com um risco nela, porém não sei se é decorrente deste risco. Gostaria de saber se alguém teve o mesmo problema, se conseguiu responder ou se consegue colocar o Media.cab do CS3 Web Premium para eu baixar.
    Já entrei em contato com o suporte no Brasil, porém a atendente me informou que não dão mais suporte a este produto e que eu deveria entrar em contato pelo fórum para tentar resolver.

    I am installing a brand new MacPro with OS X 10.5.2. It is a machine upgrade for the user so all of her previous user files were also transferred during the setup. Two days ago we got our new CS3 site license upgrade discs and I was using it to install a fresh copy of CS3 Standard. We had a 5 user license disc that we were using to test before deploying CS3 to the users so we know that we can install from that disc, unfortunately it is a CS3 Premium disc and a different serial number.
    Also of note, once the setup.app crashes (actually it never really launches) other apps, like Safari also will no longer launch. I have repaired disk permissions and the next thing I will try is installing as another user, but it looks like you guys have already tried that.
    Any help would be wonderful, this user returns from vacation on Monday!
    Thanks,

  • Serial number issue for Acrobat in CS3 Web premium education edition.

    Hi everybody. If anyone can help me on this issue, I would really appreciate it. So far, customer support hasn't been very useful. So here is the issue.
    I bought CS3 Web Premium for my 2.16ghz macbook and it was purchased through apple. Anyway, it came with the main disc to install all the applications of cs3 and another disc to install acrobat 9. The way an education edition works is that I don't receive an actual serial number. I receive a product number which I have to enter, along with my info and proof of eligibility on this website called myidentit-e.com When this was all said and done, I received an email that contained a serial number. This serial number worked on all of the regular cs3 applications but not on acrobat 9. There was no other product code included and the directions inside the case said that I should be able to use the same serial number for both the regular cs3 and acrobat 9. Customer service's suggestion was to call apple since I bought it from them but what would they know about that? Adobe seals the products and I'm assuming that Apple is only a reseller.
    Anyways, any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks!

    We've also had this problem. It looks like neither Adobe, My Identit-e nor Adobe will take responsibility for fixing this. All CS3 programs work except for Acrobat, which won't accept the serial number.
    Support requests to adobe have resulted in our request simply being "closed" without any actual response from the company.
    Has anyone had any luck with obtaining help from any of these companies? Any advice is appreciated.
