Can't open adobe acrobat pro 9.

same error as others have written about without solution for a few years. Error message says it was installed as part of suite, I need to activate another program in the suite first. I've done this several times to no avail. Any help? Opens for about 5 seconds then error message appears and closes program.

No product should force security on its users without providing them any practical way to override. Web browsers, email clients, and operating systems warn you of potentially dangerous files and then let the client make the choice. What if it's a zip file from a trusted source full of harmless text documents? Too bad - because Acrobat says so. Acrobat makes no attempt to examine the zip file to see if perhaps its contents are dangerous - it just sweepingly decides zips are far too dangerous to let the user have any voice in the matter. I fundamentally disagree.
Notice that I've attached a zip file to this post. Adobe allows zips on their forums but not in their PDF documents. Adobe: If you've deemed zip files safe enough to be hosted and delivered in your own forums, why have you decided they have no place in a PDF?
I think Adobe got this one wrong - and I cast a vote that they loosen the noose on zip files on a future release. I'd like to hear other users' thoughts on this issue. Adobe is good at listening to their users - so tell them what you think on this issue - I've posted this article as a feature request here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/520515 - reply to it that thread and share your viewpoint.
Cheers,
Dan

  • Hi, can I install Adobe Acrobat Pro on 2 devices?

    Can I install Adobe Acrobat Pro on 2 devices? I have a desktop running Windows 7 and am thinking of buying a laptop running Windows 8. I would be the sole user and only using one device at a time.

    Yes, the license permits installing on two machines at the same time as long as the same software is not being used on both simultaneously.

  • Unable to open Adobe Acrobat Pro after CS4 Design Premium install

    I recently purchased Adobe CS4 Design Premium. I attempted to install it Sunday, and it completed with an indication of success. I then tried to open all my applications to make sure everything went well, and Acrobat keeps coming up with the following error: "You can't open the application Adobe Acrobat Pro because it may be damaged or incomplete." I tried to remove it with the uninstaller, and it does not see it. I have tried to install it multiple times. I even swapped out the DVD drive to see if it was having problems reading the disc, but nothing has helped. I even tried to delete it entirely. I currently have a web case open, but they state that can take up to 3 days to be answered. I tried to call technical support, but gave up after an hour on hold. I suspect a bad disc, but I really don't want to have to wait a week or more to get the issue resolved through sending endless emails back and forth with a web case. I was hoping someone would have a good answer to my problem that would not require that. I am trying to install it on a fairly plain OS 10.6.2 system. It is a 2009 Mac Pro Quad with 6GB of RAM. As stated, so far none of the other applications are giving me any issue. It has just been Acrobat Pro.
    Thanks.

    I ended up finding the probable solution to this problem. I downloaded the trial version of CS4 Design Premium. Seeing that I had already installed CS4, it asked what application I wanted to reinstall. I reinstalled Acrobat. When I opened it the first time, it told me that the licensing server could not be reached. I opened Photoshop, then it again. It has worked fine since then. I have updated it to 9.3.1, so it should be good from here on out.

  • How can I move Adobe Acrobat Pro from my old laptop to my new one?

    A few years ago I purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro. I recently purchased a new laptop. As such, I'd like to install Adobe Acrobat Pro on the new machine, however; I don't want to have to purchase it again. Does anyone know how I can move it from my old laptop to my new one?

    I feel I've explained plenty what you must do but you aren't getting it.
    All music on your old iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Transfer the music from your iTunes library on your computer to your new iPhone in the same way it was transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone - via the iTunes sync/transfer process.
    Since you prefer the manual way, you must manually drag and drop the same 377 songs from your iTunes library to your new iPhone - in the same way the 377 songs were manually transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone.
    Or you can sync which provides more options overall. Create an iTunes playlist for the 377 songs. Select Sync Music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and choose selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Select the iTunes playlist below that includes the 377 songs followed by a sync.  

  • Can't install Adobe Acrobat Pro 9

    I purchased CS5 about 18 months ago and have recently had the need to install Adobe Acrobat Pro 9, which came with it. However, the disc isn't being read and I can't find anywhere to download Acrobat Pro 9 in order to use the serial number. Please advise! I need it quite urgently.

    I am in the same situation.  I have a legal copy of Adobe Acrobat Preo 9, but can no longer read the disk I made when I first downloaded it.  I downloadeD Adobe Acrobat  9 extended and tried a friends copy of Adobe Acrobat 9 standard.  Neither of them would accept my seria number, which I downloaded from My Adobe.  Dealing with Adobe is ftustrating.

  • How can I get Adobe Acrobat Pro 11 to install?

    I have a system with my Documents folder as a shared drive on a server.  When I try to install Adobe Acrobat Pro 11, it complains "The path My Pictures or the volume is invalid"  This error prevents the installation of Adobe Acrobat Pro.  How can I resolve this?

    Hi,
    You cannot install the Software on Shared Drive. When you start the Installation please change the Installation folder to C: instead of your Shared Drive.

  • L can't open Adobe Acrobat.

    When I try to open Adobe Acrobat by clicking on a shortcut or by opening a pdf, nothing happens. The process shows up for a second and then dissappears. At some point in the past I received an error message along the lines of "Adobe cannot connect to a *** server" I don't remember exactly what kind of server, and I cannot seem to get that error message. I've tried to re-install it before, it worked for a while and now I'm getting this problem again.
    I'm getting a similar problem in Adobe Digital Editions. I cannot authorize my account, it says I am not connected to the internet.

    I cannot open Adobe Acrobat at all. Adobe reader is fine. The message did say something about not connecting to a dde server.
    I am not on a workstation. I am on a regular laptop running Windows 7 Home x64.
    I would also like a fix for the Digital Editions Authorization thing.

  • Cannot open Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 in Windows Vista

    I can no longer open my Adobe or use it in any way.
    All of my other CS4 programs operate fine, and this is not a licensing issue.
    A little Microsoft Window pops up and says that Adobe Acrobat 9.1 has stopped working.
    It will shut down and contact me when the issue is resolved.
    Thank you in advance.

    Thank you for your help. AA9 would not open at any time for any thing; when
    I tried to open a PDF file, when I tried to create a PDF file with word or
    excel or when I tried to open the icon on my desktop.
    I took your advise and cleaned my registry and reinstalled. I also made
    Adobe Reader 9 my default PDF reader. However, although I can create PDFs
    from word or excel (with it still stopping as soon as the document has been
    converted), I still cannot open AA9 to create a new portfolio or add to an
    existing or open the icon on my desktop. I have tried to repair the
    application but with the same results.
    Any ideas? And thanks again for your help.
