Can't (re)install Acrobat X

I realize that part of this is likely my own fault: I had Acrobat X as part of Creative Suite 5.5, so when I got CS6, I didn't reinstall it with everything else. But then I ran into problems with updates, so I tried to uninstall it and install with CS6. It hangs up over and over again with a message similar to this:
WARNING: DW066: OS requirements not met for {AC76BA86-1033-F400-7760-000000000005} Acrobat Professional 10.0.0.0

I've given myself full permissions for C:\Config.Msi and then restarted... to no avail.
Any suggestions??

I'm having the same problem with Acrobat X. Updated from CS5 to A-Cloud CS6 but getting all kinds of permission errors. Have gone and reset permissions, but then error will be on a different file within the directory (despite having applied all correct permissions to every file in Acrobat folder, *sigh*). It all started with the update to 10.2. Now Acrobat has somehow uninstalled completely during one of the many attempts to update.  Anyone have a fix for this?

  • Why can I not install Acrobat Reader in a different drive / directory

    why can I not install Acrobat Reader in a different drive / directory. I need to install this in a different drive. I prefer to keep the Os drive free of rubbish. Is there an option in an install to allow this to happen?

    What is your operating system & version?
    If you are on Windows, download the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ and click 'Change Destination Folder' and the first install panel.

  • Why can I not install Acrobat XI Pro on a Windows 8.1/64 machine?

    Acrobat X Pro is running, but when I try to install Acrobat XI Pro through Adobe Creative Cloud on a Windows 8.1/64 machine it fails near the end of the installation.  It indicates that it failed with 7 errors, but nowhere are the errors accessible.  Can anyone help?

    Were you logged in as the administrator and did you have anti-virus disabled? CC may have some special installation requirements and you need to check the CC forum for such information.

  • Can't re-install acrobat 8. have disk and serial numbers, but won't re-install.

    my system is windows XP. i installed acrobat 8. found it won't work with microsoft 2007. uninstalled the acrobat. uninstalled microsoft 2007. installed microsoft 2003. but can't install acrobat 8. i get error 1500.

    Have no idea what the error represents. However, the web suggests: "Error 1500.  Another installation is in progress. You must complete that installation before continuing this one." That would suggest to me that you need to reboot. However, if you have uninstalled AA8, first delete the "Acrobat 8.0" folder (it should be in Program Files>Adobe). Next, run http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html. Then reboot and log in as the administrator. After logging in, disable anti-virus for the installation and install AA8. After the installation (you may also have to activate), open Acrobat and use Help>Updates to update until the updates are done. You should only have to reboot after the final update.
    AA8 should work fine with OFFICE 2007. However, Office will often disable the macros and you may have enable the Acrobat macro if you want to use PDF Maker. You should have still been able to print to the Adobe PDF printer.

  • Can I re-install Acrobat X Pro and somehow reduce the size of the program? 6 GB is HUGE!

    My installed Adobe Acrobat X Pro is ~6 GB (according to Windows program manager). I can't justify that space. Is this necessary?
    I really only need it to combine/rearrange/modify PDF presentations. Is there a way to install a smaller set of functionality?

    Hi Ashley Clavette,
    The Initial view setting works perfectly when the file is opened in Acrobat after setting the desired Initial View.
    When you upload the file onto Wordpress, and view it on that website in the browser...it might be using a different pdf handler program which might be causing this issue ( it would be helpful, if you could provide the screenshot) , however when you download the pdf again from wordpress server...and open in Acrobat/Reader...then what  exactly happens ?  Does the pdf opens in the desired Initial View setting?

  • How can I manage to install Acrobat Pro XI in Safari ?

    Pascal Guernier May 5, 2014 8:26 AM
    Hi,
    Someone can tell me how I can manage to install Acrobat Pro XI as the default PDF reader ?
    Before I tried to remove Acrobat Reader XI from my MacBook Pro retina under Mac OS.X.9.2. With the help of Apple's phone support.
    We did clear all caches in libraries and in other places. But, rapidly perhaps, I've deleted a folder name Reader with The XI version ? Was it Acrobat Reader or Acrobat Pro ? I don't know ?
    Thank you for support because I'm in the french's taxes declaration...
    Best,
    Pascal

    Thank you for your question.
    First because I was unable to save a document with a right click. Just able to print, rotate and nothing more. And a mini left screen's menu. Except thumbnails and page number, no option.  And all the Acrobat Tools were not proposed. Such edit, remove a page. Optimize And so on.
    So I did believe it was a reduced version of Acrobat pro : Acrobat reader. A good tool too.
    The possible solution suggested by an another user was to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat Pro.
    In fact I succeeded by unistalling Acrobat Pro XI with the appropriate tool : an uninstaller. Located in the an adobe folder in Utility Tools. So I uninstall Acrobat Pro correctly. A cleaner is proposed for windows system at labs.adobe.com
    And I erased by throwing it, in the TrashCan, Acrobat READER.
    Then with Creative Cloud tool and my account I reinstalled Acrobat Pro XI.
    And then I followed Adobe's manual tips. First I chose a Pdf file. With a right click. And in the contextual menu I chose Informations. Then I selected Acrobat Pro XI as THE défaut reader. With an option named Complete too. In order that any PDF file will be opened by Acrobat Pro XI.
    And it seems to work.
    But your question is pertinent. Because if I had after a way to save the document with a Save icon, this doc. was a sensible one : my income taxes of 2013 provided by the french ministry of finance...
    So I was able to save this doc. And after in Acrobat Pro with usual tools I did compile all the compulsory others pdf docs.
    Thank you and Best regards

  • How do I install Acrobat 7 on 64 bit computer so it installs as 32 bit?

    I understand now that Acrobat 7's printer driver will only install on a 32 bit computer.  I have a new Windows 7 64 bit computer, but many programs will install in 32 bit mode and I did install the 32 bit version of Windows initially.  However, the print module will not install, which I read is because the architecture of the computer is 64 bit.  How can I selectively install Acrobat in 32 bit mode so I can use the pdf printer driver? 

    You can not. And this has nothing to do with 32bit vs. 64bit. The driver model is simply completely different on Windows 7. You need to upgrade to Acrobat X or use and alternative like GhostScript.

  • Re-installing Acrobat after uninstalling and doing a clean re-install of the OS

    I purchased Acrobat 8 Standard on 5/16/2007 and saved it to the cloud a few days ago before uninstalling/re-installing XP SP3. My computer tech cautioned me about re-installing the cloud-saved up-to-date version as it wouldn't be compatable with my new user files. He told me to install the 2007 version and then run update within the program. So I ask (having found the location on the Adobe site where I can download), is this going to be the same program I purchased, un-updated? If not, what's my work-around?
    Thanks, RW

    Hi walkerlaw1,
    Am not sure what files you have saved to the Cloud. Is it the setup file or the Folder in your Program Files?
    Adobe recommends archiving the setup file for future use.
    Acrobat 8 Std. is no longer available on our website to download. If you have purchased an Electronic Download (ESD) version from Adobe then you can login to your account on Adobe and find the download link in your Adobe account. Yes, this would be the same program you purchased. And as recommended by your computer tech, you can download and install Acrobat 8 Std. and then run the updater within the program to update it to the latest patch.

  • Can I install Acrobat in a Windows Server 2008 for many users?

    I'm looking for a solution for my enterprise to install Adobe Acrobat in Windows Server 2008 R2, where the users connect by remote desktop. I'm looking for a form for they use Acrobat by the same form they uses now Reader. But not for all, only for some of this users.
    I called a responsible and he told me that I can install Acrobat for some users in Windows Server 2008 R2, but I'm not sure if that solution will be legal.
    Can I buy a special license for it or I have to buy a license for each user? How can I proceed to do this, if it's possible?
    Thanks in advance for you attention!

    Use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify default values.
    Place a file local-settings.js in the defaults\pref folder where you also find the file channel-prefs.js to specify using mozilla.cfg.
    pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
    pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // use this to disable the byte-shift
    See:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
    You can use these functions in mozilla.cfg:
    defaultPref(); // set new default value
    pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session
    lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes
    <pre><nowiki>lockPref("app.update.enabled", false);</nowiki></pre>
