Can't install the CreatePDF Desktop Printer in Win7 x64

I can't seem to get the CreatePDF Desktop Printer to install in Windows 7 x64.  Is this a known issue?
I downloded the setup from 'Create PDF' button on my Acrobat.com account and used 'Run as administrator' to run the setup. IT seems to install fine (no errors) but the window to put in my user name and passwrod never appears (as it does in the How To video) and when the setup terminates, there is no Adobe printer in the Control Panel.

It worked fine to me.
Hugs.

    I just installed Adobe CreatePDF desktop printer on a Windows 7 home PC.  When I try to use from Word or EWxcel, it does not print.  The Adobe print device queue reports an "error" in the status column.

    Adobe retired this Feb 17, 2014.
    This app sent content to and got content from the web based services of "CreatPDF" and "PDF Pack".
    These are subscription services out in "the cloud". When the app was live you had to be online and signed into your account.  The user forum for CreatePDF has a DOC that speaks to the app removal.
    Be well...

  • Cannot Install "Adobe CreatePDF Desktop Printer"

    According to the Help Page titled "Create PDF Files", I should be able to download the installer for the "Adobe CreatePDF Desktop Printer". Supposedly, when I click "Create PDF" on my Acrobat.com main page, I will have an option to "Install Adobe CreatePDF Desktop Printer". However, when I click on "Create PDF",  this option is not presented to me. Instead, I only have the option to "Upload a file to convert it to PDF". How do I install the "Adobe CreatePDF Desktop Printer"?
    Thanks

  • Can't install the CC desktop app (MacOSX)

    I am signed in to the Creative Cloud on a new MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014) running OSX 10.10.2. This is my first install of CC on this laptop.
    When trying to install an application, eg Muse or PS, I am prompted to install the CC desktop app.

    I have repeatedly tried to install, 11 times unto now. Tried restarting, etc.
    Tried downloading the free trial as a non member, same result.
    Tried as another account on my MBP, same result.
    Who has a pointer as to what could solve this annoying error ? Someone at Adobe ?? Anyone else ?

  • Can not install the latest itunes on Windows 7 x64

    I have recently purchased an Ipad and need to download itunes onto my computer.  Its a windows 7 64 bit operating system that was already installed upon the purchase of the computer.
    I have downloaded the most recent itunes program from their site and made sure I had the correct file for the 64 bit computer.  When I click to run the installation program I get the pop up window that asks if I "want to allow the following program from an unknown publisher to make changes to this computer" I click yes and then nothing happens.  I don't get an error code so I can't give you that it just doesn't do anything.
    I have tried all the troubleshooting methods suggested by itunes here - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926 and even looked to see if I could find a similar situation on the help boards.  So far nothing has worked.  Can anyone help me?

    UPDATE: Okay after repeating the troubleshooting steps for what seems to be the 5th time and re-downloading itunes for what seems to be the 6th time I have now managed to install itunes *does happy dance*
    Thank you for your support advice and patience.

  • CreatePDF desktop printer - 'error'

    Hi,
    I installed the CreatePDF pack (I have Windows7) and then ran into problems as the install wouldn't work. I then installed the Xerox printer and ran the CreatePDF installation again and it worked. The problem is that I cannot print on this printer. When I try to create a pdf from Word using the CreatePDF printer I get an 'error' in the spool. I followed all the leads I could find to fix this problem:
    - I installed the Windows Patch
    - I removed and re-installed the CreatePDF desktop printer
    - I made sure my credentials were correct for the port
    I removed and re-installed the Xerox and CreatePDF printer a number of times but nothing seems to help.
    What else can I try to make this work?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Yes that the hotflix I applied. I did re-install the printer after the update but it didn’t fix the problem. I can see the printer and use it but it failed each time. I get a failure email with the following message which makes no sense since I am printing from Word (I tried other software too) :
          Adobe PDF Pack could not successfully convert your file Microsoft Word - Document1 to Adobe PDF. Your uploaded file type is not a supported format. 
    What else can I do?
    Many thanks

  • Paper Size issues with CreatePDF Desktop Printer

    Are there any known paper size issues with PDFs created using Acrobat.com's CreatePDF Desktop Printer?
    I've performed limited testing with a trial subscription, in preparation for a rollout to several clients.
    Standard paper size in this country is A4, not Letter.  The desktop printer was created manually on a Windows XP system following the instructions in document cpsid_86984.  MS Word was then used to print a Word document to the virtual printer.  Paper Size in Word's Page Setup was correctly set to A4.  However the resultant PDF file was Letter size, causing the top of each page to be truncated.
    I then looked at the Properties of the printer, and found that it was using an "HP Color LaserJet PS" driver (self-chosen by the printer install procedure).  Its Paper Size was also set to A4.  Word does override some printer driver settings, but in this case both the application and the printer were set to A4, so there should have been no issue.
    On a hunch, I then changed the CreatePDF printer driver to a Xerox Phaser, as suggested in the above Adobe document for other versions of Windows.  (Couldn't find the recommended "Xerox Phaser 6120 PS", so chose the 1235 PS model instead.)  After confirming that it too was set for A4, I repeated the test using the same Word document.  This time the result was fine.
    While I seem to have solved the issue on this occasion, I have not been able to do sufficient testing with a 5-PDF trial, and wish to avoid similar problems with the future live users, all of which use Word and A4 paper.  Any information or recommendations would be appreciated.  Also, is there any information available on the service's sensitivity to different printer drivers used with the CreatePDF's printer definition?  And can we assume that the alternative "Upload and Convert" procedure correctly selects output paper size from the settings of an uploaded document?
    PS - The newly-revised doc cpsid_86984 still seems to need further revising.  Vista and Windows 7 instructions have now been split.  I tried the new Vista instructions on a Vista SP2 PC and found that step 6 appears to be out of place - there was no provision to enter Adobe ID and password at this stage.  It appears that, as with XP and Win7, one must configure the printer after it is installed (and not just if changing the ID or password, as stated in the document).

    Thank you, Rebecca.
    The plot thickens a little, given that it was the same unaltered Word document that first created a letter-size PDF, but correctly created an A4-size PDF after the driver was changed from the HP Color Laser PS to a Xerox Phaser.  I thought that the answer may lie in your comment that "it'll get complicated if there is a particular driver selected in the process of manually installing the PDF desktop printer".  But that HP driver was not (consciously) selected - it became part of the printer definition when the manual install instructions were followed.
    However I haven't yet had a chance to try a different XP system, and given that you haven't been able to reproduce the issue (thank you for trying), I will assume for the time being that it might have been a spurious problem that won't recur.  I'll take your point about using the installer, though when the opportunity arises I might try to satisfy my cursed curiosity by experimenting further with the manual install.  If I come up with anything of interest, I'll post again.

  • I subscribed to PDF Pack, seems like a waste of money since Adobe CreatePDF Desktop Printer fails. Please advise.

    subscribed to Acrobat Pack because my Acrobat 8 professional is no longer supported in Windows8.1. I can not create a PDF on my HD using Adobe CreatePDF Desktop Printer. My different tests do not even appear on cloud...My.files... How can I make this work and return to my positive experiences with Acrobat 8 ??

  • I can't install the canon irc2380i

    I can't install the canon irc2380i printer on my macBook pro, OS 10.9.4- Thx for help

    The iR series support Canon's proprietary UFR2 printer language by default. So this would be the preferred driver to use if you are not sure if the optional Postscript print kit is installed in the copier.
    The iR C2380 does not support Bonjour, so you will need to know the IP address of the copier to add it to the Mac. So after you install this driver, select to add the printer and press the IP icon in the Add printer window. Then enter the IP address of the iR C2380, set the protocol to HP Jetdirect-Socket (important), leave the queue name blank and select "Canon iR C2380/2550" in the Use menu. Then click Add to complete the printer creation and then see if you can print.
