Can't install upgrade from Acrobat XI Standard to Acrobat XI Pro

I have Acrobat XI Standard installed on a new Dell Windows 7 PC. I just purchased an upgrade to Acobat XI Pro. I paid $199 and successfully downloaded the installation file from www.adobe.com.
When I try to install the package, the installation proceeds through a few standard screens (e.g., the Welcome screen), and then I receive a setup error:
     "Setup has detected that you already have a more functional product installed. Setup will now terminate."
Clearly, Acrobat XI Standard is not a more functional product than Acrobat XI Pro. How do I get around this error so that I can install the upgrade?

Hey habilock,
The reason why you are getting this error is that you are attempting to install Acrobat XI pro over XI standard, but you cannot install the same version of Pro over Standard.
If they are different versions (like Acrobat Pro XI over Acrobat X), then it would work.
You can also check the following link that clearly specifies that there is no such upgrade option of Acrobat XI over Standard:
Buying guide | Adobe Acrobat XI Pro
For more details on the same, you can refer another forum link discussing the same issue:
setup has detected you already have a more functional product installed....
Hope that helps.

  • How do I upgrade from Adobe XI Standard to Adobe XI Pro?

    I'm trying to upgrade my Standard addition of Acrobat 9 to the Pro version.  can someone tell me how to do this?
    Thanks!

    Hey rachelb79735362,
    Could you please clarify whether you wish to upgrade from Acrobat 9 or from Acrobat XI Std. to Pro version.
    Adobe does not offer upgrade options from Acrobat 9 Std. to Acrobat 9 Pro version.
    Also, with the launch of Acrobat DC version, you can simply upgrade from Acrobat XI Std. to Acrobat DC Pro version.
    Please refer the link mentioned below and upgrade to this new Acrobat DC version:

  • Why can't I upgrade from CS5 Design Standard to CS6 Design Standard?

    Hi. I recently purchased an upgrade for the Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design Standard from the CS5 version I previously owned. I've downloaded it and now when I try to install it, it's saying I don't have a qualifying product installed already to do it, and it's only giving me CS5.5 or CS6 as options for qualifying products. Can someone from adobe assist me on here? It is nearly impossible to get a hold of the phone support, especially in Canada. And I would need to figure this out in the next 2 weeks so that I could get my full refund if needed.
    THANKS.

  • Installing upgrade from CS 4 Standard to CS 5.5 Premium generates errors post install

    Hi
    This is on a Windows XP SP3 32-bit computer.
    Already has CS 4 Standard with an upgraded CS 5.5 Premium installed on it for over a year.  Some of the CS 5.5 applications were crashing so am attempting to reinstall CS 5.5.  However at the end of the CS 5.5 upgrade install I get the following warnings/errors.  CS 5.5 seem to work however.  Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • Installing upgrade from Acrobat XI Standard to Acrobat Xi Pro

    I am trying to install an upgrade from Acrobat 11 Standard to Acrobat 11 Pro.  I have purchased and upgrade license.  When I try to install the Pro upgrade, I get a message that a product with higher functions is already installed and it terminates the install.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

    I would recommend you uninstall Std, run http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html, remove any left over Acrobat folder parts (in Program Files>Adobe), reboot, and install. You will likely have to give the S/N for Std as the qualifying product for XI Pro.

  • Acrobat 8 Standard and Acrobat X Pro unable to install

    Hello,
    I have purchased Acrobat 8 Standard and Acrobat X Pro, and have both serial numbers. 
    I am unable to install either in my new computer. 
    I do not have a disc for Acorbat 8, but do have one for Acrobat X Pro. 
    I have tried downloading from Download and Installation Help.  I received the following error message:  "Setup has detected that you already have a more functional product installed.  Setup will now terminate." 
    I have uninstalled and re-installed 8. 
    I have used the Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner. 
    Nothing has worked so far. 
    I received an email from Adobe Help & Support. I replied in order to set up an appointment, but never received a response. 
    It was suggested in one of the last communications in another forum, that I post a new discussion in the Acrobat Installation & Update Issues forum. 
    Please help.

    Hi Elizabeth ,
    It is not recommended to download and run two Acrobat versions on the same machine as it can lead to some conflicts between the two and as well as with the activation server .
    Try and use single software on one machine .
    Please use the Adobe Cleaner tool to uninstall the software .Here is the link for the same .
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Once uninstalled ,try downloading the software once again and see if that works for you .Make sure you disable all the third party software while the installation is in progress to avoid any interruption.
    Or you could refer the following to download Acrobat X Pro .Acrobat 8 standard ,as it is an older version would not be available now .
    You could try and download Acrobat X referring the following KB document and serialize by typing the serial number mentioned on the disk .

  • Upgrading from Oracle 10G standard edition to Oracle 10G enterprise edition

    Hi
    I want to upgrade from Oracle 10G standard edition to Oracle 10G enterprise edition. Is there any script provided by oracle which I can run on existing Oracle 10G standard edition to upgrade to enterprise edition after completing the licensing formalities or do I need to install Oracle 10g Enterprise edition from scratch and then migrate my data.
    Ramanbir S

    You will not need to perform any data migration to upgrade to EE. The diffetence between standard en enerprise editions are the features offered. When you upgrade you can use the same set of files you used to install standard edition and just add the enterprise edition features you want to use in the 'Custom' section of the Universal Installer.

  • Purch. & installed upgrade from iLife 2 to iLife 08, but I have questions..

    Hi ~
    _Purchased & installed upgrade from iLife 2 to iLife 08, but I have questions..._
    First I made sure I backed up my 5,500 photos in iPhoto to an external hard drive. (The only downfall to this backing-up process is that I haven't found an easy way to back-up the comments attached to each photo. Any advice on this? Part of the "horror" to losing one's photos is also losing the comments added to them over the years.)
    Back to the install... I installed iLife 08 and it installed correctly. I checked to see what version of the applications I have in the dock on my desktop - I figured it would just import existing data (photos, tunes, etc.) into the newer version and replace it in the dock - +it only did this for iDVD+, of course it wasn't that easy for the others.
    I can't find the newer version of iPhoto. My iPhoto in the dock still says version 2. iTunes in my dock is version 7 (7.4.2). iMovie is version 3 (3.0.3). But the new Garageband is there in the dock. And of course, iDVD is the newer version '08.
    I am most concerned with iPhoto and making sure all the photos AND their comments import correctly into the newer iPhoto 08. I am nervous about this so I want to make sure I do the process correctly.
    I also want to make sure my iTunes information imports correctly to the newer version as well.
    Thank you.
    Sincerely,
    Kathy

    If you backed up the iPhoto Library Folder then you got everything - photos, albums, comments etc
    I can't find the newer version of iPhoto. My iPhoto in the dock still says version 2. iTunes in my dock is version 7 (7.4.2). iMovie is version 3 (3.0.3). But the new Garageband is there in the dock. And of course, iDVD is the newer version '08.
    The Dock is not important. Look in your Applications Folder for iPhoto 08. That's where it should be. The Dock is just a shortcut to that. What version is in your Apps folder?
    To upgrade a Library from v2 to iPhoto 08 all you do is open the Library with the newer version.

  • Wiped our old iPad 1 clean, now can't install iOS from iTunes.  iTunes does not "see" the devise.  Tried uninstalling and installing iTunes on laptop.  Also bought new USB cable.  The iPad is charging, but that's all it does.

    Wiped our old iPad 1 clean, now can't install iOS from iTunes using laptop PC (W Vista).  iTunes does not "see" the device.  Tried uninstalling and installing iTunes on laptop.  Also bought new USB cable.  The iPad is charging, but that's all it does.  Just want to get it operating again for browsing and e-reading.

    OK.  You merely erased the content and settings.  The IOS is still there.
    If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures.  From what you've already stated, my guess is that you'll end up with Recovery Mode described in the last paragraph.
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, read this.

  • Iwant to purchaseAcrobat Pro XI. Do I install upgrade if I have reader and Acrobat X trial version?

    I want to purchase Acrobat Pro XI. Do I install upgrade if I have reader and Acrobat X trial version. Sorry new to all this software stuff. Hope someone can help out there.

    You would only qualify for the upgrade if you had a purchased copy of a previous version that qualifies. For AA XI, that means you have to have AA 9 or later that you had purchased. So the answer to your question is NO, buy the full version.
