Can't register Acrobat X Pro

Phone support sends me to chat chat doesn't respond. How do I get the software registered. I have 2 other copies of acrobat pro that registered previously w/o problem I also registered Dream Weaver w/o problem. In the past when I needed customer service I actually got issues immediately resolved. What the @%*! happened to Adobe?

If you read the full text of my posts you should understand that this
was MOSTLY NOT about what appears to be a fraudulent copy.
It is mostly about the deterioration of Adobe Customer Service when
compared to my previous experiences with Adobe.
Apparently you (but not other customer service options) have the
experience or training to let me know:
1) it has "nothing to do with Canada" (other software from other
companies have versions limited to specific geographic areas so the
question seems valid and even if it wasn't, the customer deserved an answer)
2) that likely this is a case of fraudulent activity (which I suspected
when the product couldn't be registered. Ebay has been contacted)
To respond to some of the things you say:
1) I believe that somewhere (if not in my post on the forum, I'm sure
was included in the initial Chat), I said that I had a copy of Acrobat X
Pro registered, from which one could assume possession of valid media,
in which case all I needed was a Serial #.
But thanks for letting me know that Adobe no longer sells Acrobat X Pro
Licenses. Since I already had a copy (for which I paid full freight) my
purpose was merely one of convenience to have on another machine I use
here in the house.
2) you say the Agents I dealt with Could not provide the "reason" for an
invalid Serial#, and yet you are able to list the possibilities and
probabilities here yourself. It seems unlikely that a properly trained
agent would be incapable of same (Which would have provided some
supporting evidence when attempting to get a refund from Ebay).
3) "but there is not much that Adobe can do other than to warn potential
customers about the problems with dealing with unknown, non-authorized,
software resellers." Clearly I was not asking for any remedy of any sort
from Adobe for fraudulent software.
What is also clear is that Customer Service has been lacking at every
step in this episode. Including here. Rather than digesting what is
presented, you make the assumption that I have unreasonable
expectations. In fact I only expect what my customers expected of me
before I retired and closed my business. It seems almost impossible any
more (anywhere) to have a Customer Service Experience in which an Agent
devotes the time and effort to first hear or read the information
presented, digest it, ask clarifying questions as needed, and provide
appropriate responses. In the not so distant past, I had that experience
with Adobe.
If I get your drift appropriately, I should no longer base my
expectations of Adobe on past performance. So goes the world.
It is just a shame that Adobe can build Premier software but can't
provide matching Customer Service (not to be confused with product
support which is generally top-notch).

  • How can I move Acrobat 9 Pro from my old MacBook to a new one?

    Hi there,
    How can I move Acrobat 9 Pro from my old MacBook to a new one?
    Thanks!

    Hi cialbert,
    Do you have the install media? If not, you can download Acrobat from here: Download Acrobat products | 9, 8 - Adobe.  You'll need your Acrobat serial number (see Find your serial number quickly - Adobe).
    Note, as well, that the licensing agreement allows you to activate the software on up to two computers. If you've already activated it on two computers, deactivate on one before installing on the new computer (see Activation & Deactivation Help).
    I think that should take care of it! Please let us know if you need additional help.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Can't install Acrobat 9 Pro on Windows XP Home Ed V2002 SP3

    Newbie hozer can't install Acrobat 9 Pro on Windows XP Home Ed V2002 SP4.  At end of install via CD it hangs restarting Print Spooler (spooler) and Windows Image Acquisition (stisvc) services, err 1920, and all I can do is click Cancel and it uninstalls the whole dad gum thing.  I tried kb.adobe.com/cps/403/kb403613.html.  Not fixing it.
    If I could change the permissions on those services maybe that would help but I can't do it, I don't have a login with enough permissions, I guess...
    So after the third time I just hard-crashed the hard drive when it got to the last ("can't start Windows Image Acquisition", cancel/retry) window and I did end up with the files on the HDD but... they won't install or delete now.  I'm infested.  Try to install in Normal or Vega mode, it now pops up a filled in userid/serial number box, and when you click ok or retype it, it says the s/n is invalid.  I keep having to reboot to get Windows Installer to let me start it (another permissions problem).  So I'm stuck. UpToDateTrendMicro doesn't find any evil doers...  the kb403613 sent me to this forum,
    with hopes,
    M3/   [that's MEL, or as close as the ScreenNameBouncer would let me get]

    Not sure it will help, but try it when logged in as the administrator and with anti-virus turned off. As far as error numbers, must of us have no clue (there seems to be a list at Adobe, but we don't work there.

  • Can I run Acrobat 9 Pro and X Pro, can't afford plugin upgrades

    Can I run Acrobat 9 Pro and X Pro
    Can't afford plugin upgrades from 9 to X

    If you wish to run both the version on the same machine. It's not a supported configuration as Version 9 and X Pro share the same namespace and you may run into issues which would be hard to fix.
    I would recomend to use single version. Let me know, if you need more information.

  • How can I register my Logic Pro 8

    Hi people,
    how can I register my Logic Pro 8. In the registration-system of Apple they don´t offer Logic Pro 8. There you can only choos eather Logic Pro 7 or Logic Studio.
    So what shell I do?
    Thank you for your help!
    Kind regards

    Hi
    Unless you want Logic 8 on there (which will cause a load of trouble because the Installer will not run on M Lion), just install Logic Studio (9). The installer will ask for the 9 serial and the original (8) serial.

    Hi Lynfordd,
    As per your account details your CC subscription is active and it should work fine. I also found that your subscription is already activated on 2 machines, so if you are trying to install and activate it on another computer then you need to deactivate it from one of the 2 machines and then try activating it on your 3rd computer.
    Please let us know if it helps.

  • Can I download Acrobat 9 Pro online?

    I have to re-install my Acrobat 9 Pro software, but my computer's disk drive has decided to go on strike. I attempted to contact support but must have a support account in order to receive help on a product this old.
    Is there, perhaps, a place somewhere online that I could download the software and then enter the product key I have on my disk?
    Thanks in advance!

    There is a site at Adobe where you can download it, but you will still need your software key. The software key you may be able to get from Adobe if you registered it. The link was posted about 2 or 3 months ago and you might be able to find it in the forum. I do not have a copy of the link. If you get it downloaded, be sure to make a CD of the download for the future. I think this link might be what you need (there are some steps to get there):

  • Can't install Acrobat X Pro-- installation halts saying that I need Internet Explorer 7.0 or greater

    Operating system is Windows 7 Ultimate.
    Acrobat 9 Pro is intalled and working.
    I'm trying to install a trial version of Acrobat X Pro, but the installation stops early on with the error seen below in this screenshot. Any ideas?

    Acrobat 8 needs IE 6.0 not 4.0
    1) Try installing using MSI file instead of setup.exe.
    2) Enable MSI logging and provide the MSI log. Steps to enable MSI logging can be found here http://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/223300
    3) What is the version of shdocvw.dll in "C:\Windows\System32" folder and in "C:\Windows\SysWOW64" (exists only on a 64 bit machine) folder.
