Can't select Acrobat Pro for update 8.1.2

Hi Everyone,
I'm fairly new to this forum, and so far I've found it helpful. I'm a graphic design student and recently got CS3 Design Premium. I'm running OSX Leopard, and every time I try to update Acrobat Pro 8, the updater asks me to select my copy of Acrobat for update. The problem is, I go into Apps to select it, but it won't let me... it's grayed out. I can open the Acrobat folder, but I can't select the actual program. Is anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!

I am having the same problem. Cannot select the Acrobat 8 program to update it.
Also, when Acrobat 8 runs it's automatic updater, it gives me this error message: "Cannot overwrite file /Users/myuser/Documents/Updater5/AdobeUpdater/acrobat8pro-EFG/AUMProduct.dmg. The file may be locked or you may not have sufficient access rights. Please make sure you have write access to this fie."
I checked the directory and I have write access to everything in it.

The version of Acrobat you have is a PowerPC application and will not run on Mountain Lion. You will need to upgrade/purchase an Intel version of Acrobat Pro, probably Version 9.
It might have been worth checking to see if the apps you run are supported on ML before upgrading. If you backed up your system before the upgrade you could always revert to your previous level.

Acrobat's print dialog doesn't deal with hardware-specific features, for that you have to click on the "Properties" button next to the dropdown printer selection field.

If you don't have original install disks for your Mac, you can order replacements disks directly from Apple at a nominal cost. The original install DVDs are required to reset the password.
If you have no data on your drive that you want to keep, you can boot up from the OSX Snow Leopard disk and install OSX SL.
Insert the Snow Leopard DVD and hold the C key during startup. The Mac should boot from the CD/DVD drive into the installer.
Follow the prompts, erase the disk and install OSX Snow Leopard.

If you purchased it from the Adobe Store on the web then you need to contact Adobe. If you purchased it from another party on the web then you need to contact that third party vendor.

Can not select external input for sound

can not select external input for sound

Hey there RoosterMonkey,
It sounds like you have Soundtrack Pro installed but you cannot select your external audio device as an input. I recommend the troubleshooting steps from the article named:
Soundtrack Pro 3: Troubleshooting Basics
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3659
Update to the latest software versions
From the Apple () menu, choose Software Update and make sure that you have the most recent updates for your versions of Soundtrack Pro 3, QuickTime, Compressor, Pro Application Support, and other important system files. Installing the latest updates ensures that your software has the latest improvements and enhancements.
Note: Be sure the application is in the Applications folder and is named Soundtrack Pro before running Software Update.
Check compatibility and driver versions for third-party devices
If you're using a third-party sound card, MIDI interface, storage system, control surface, or plug-in, check the support area on the manufacturer's website to be sure that you're using the latest version of the relevant driver or other software for your product. For information on troubleshooting possible issues with Audio Unit plug-ins, go to Soundtrack Pro 3: Troubleshooting Audio Unit plug-in issues.
Try a different Multitrack Project or Audio File Project
Sometimes project files can become damaged, causing unexpected behavior in Soundtrack Pro. To create a fresh project, choose File, then New and select Multitrack Project or Audio File. Test to see if the issue is resolved in the new project.
Delete the User Preferences
You can resolve many issues by restoring Soundtrack Pro to its original settings. This will not impact your project files. To reset your Soundtrack Pro user preference settings to their original state:
Quit Soundtrack Pro if it is open.
In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu bar.
Type ~/Library/Preferences in the "Go to the folder" field.
Remove the "com.apple.soundtrackpro.plist" file from the Preferences folder.
In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu.
Type ~/Library/Application Support/Soundtrack Pro in the "Go to the folder" field.
Remove the "EffectsCache.plist" file from the Soundtrack Pro folder.
In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu.
Type ~/Library/Application Support/Soundtrack Pro/Layouts in the "Go to folder" field.
Remove the "Soundtrack Pro.saved.moduleLayout" file from the Layouts folder.
In the Finder, choose Go > Go to Folder from the menu.
Type ~/Library/Caches in the "Go to folder" field.
Remove the "com.apple.audiounits.cache" from the Caches folder.
Remove receipts and reinstall Soundtrack Pro 3 and Compressor
Another approach you might consider is reinstalling Soundtrack Pro and Compressor. To do this effectively, you need to remove the applications and their receipts, then install Soundtrack Pro and use Software Update to install additional updates. Compressor gets installed automatically when you install Soundtrack Pro. You don't have to remove everything that was installed with Soundtrack Pro, so follow the steps below to completely reinstall a fresh copy of Soundtrack Pro. Note: Make sure that you have your installation discs handy before beginning.
In Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard or OS X Lion
Open the Terminal application and enter the following commands one at a time and an administrator password when prompted. Note: The commands are case sensitive.
sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.Compressor
sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.Qmaster
sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.VideoOutSupport
sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.PSTSharedA
sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.AppleHDVCodec
sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.AppleIntermediateCodec
sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.DSPPublishing
sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.SoundtrackPro
sudo pkgutil --forget com.apple.pkg.Uncompressed422
Then, reinstall Soundtrack Pro and Compressor using the following steps:
Open the Applications folder. Drag the Soundtrack Pro and Compressor applications to the Trash.
Insert your Logic Studio or Final Cut Studio installation disc and install Soundtrack Pro.
When finished installing, choose the Apple () menu, then Software Update to update your software to the latest version.
Open Soundtrack Pro to verify that the issue has been resolved.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

Acrobat Pro 9 & XI both installed on Mac. How can I uninstall Acrobat Pro 9 & not affect Acrobat XI?

Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and Acrobat Pro XI are installed on the same iMac with OS X 10.8.5. How do I safely uninstall only Acrobat Pro 9 without affecting Acrobat Pro XI?
When I first installed Acrobat Pro XI, I thought maybe I was suppose to leave Acrobat Pro 9 on my computer.
So now I have both Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and Acrobat Pro 11 installed.
I see no benefit to having both installed. I want to uninstall only the Acrobat Pro 9 and not Acrobat Pro XI.
I am not sure that I can safely uninstall Acrobat Pro 9 without affecting the functioning and files for Acrobat Pro XI.
I started to uninstall Acrobat 9, but I stopped when I saw a warning in a little window.
I went to the "Acrobat Uninstaller.app" file in the "Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro" folder and double clicked it.
The Acrobat folder for Acrobat XI Pro came up with the file "Adobe Acrobat Pro.app" selected
I manually selected the "Adobe Acrobat Pro.app" file in the "Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro" folder.
When I clicked on "Adobe Acrobat Pro.app" for Acrobat 9 a window with a warning came up. So I stopped.
"Uninstall will remove files, folders, and preferences installed by Acrobat from your system.
There is no undo available. User data files and directories shared by other Adobe applications will not be removed."
Should I go ahead and click [Uninstall]?
I don't think it will delete my pdf files.
Will this affect my Acrobat XI operating &/or preferences? Will Acrobat XI still function correctly?
What do I have to do to safely have just Acrobat XI on my computer without Acrobat 9?
Thank you for any help.

I am trying to uninstall, I tried to uninstall, but I got the following message when trying to uninstall: "Invalid Application. The application selected was not a valid Acrobat application for this uninstaller. Please rerun the uninstaller." Acrobat 9 installation suddenly stopped working
Can you help?

Help, question about "select ... for update nowait"

There is a proc code. In the beginning of the code, I used a SQL "select ... for update nowait" in order to prevent from another proc executing at the same time. When the case happens, "-54, ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified" will be printed in the screen.
But there is a question: I need to print sth to indicate "another proc is running". I used "if (sqlca.sqlcode == -54)" as precondition, such as:
if (sqlca.sqlcode == -54) {
printf("There is another proc running.\n");
However, this line will not be printed. I doubt that the code quits directly when using "select ... for update nowait" so as not to set value (-54) to sqlca.sqlcode.
So, could you suggest whether there is another way that I can use to print "There is another proc running" when another proc is running?
Thx a lot for your kindly reply.

Yes, that link. Scroll down a bit and you will see:
The calling application gets a PL/SQL exception, which it can process using the error-reporting functions SQLCODE and SQLERRM in an OTHERS handler. Also, it can use the pragma EXCEPTION_INIT to map specific error numbers returned by raise_application_error to exceptions of its own, as the following Pro*C example shows:
EXEC SQL EXECUTE
/* Execute embedded PL/SQL block using host
variables v_emp_id and v_amount, which were
assigned values in the host environment. */
DECLARE
null_salary EXCEPTION;
/* Map error number returned by raise_application_error
to user-defined exception. */
PRAGMA EXCEPTION_INIT(null_salary, -20101);
BEGIN
raise_salary(:v_emp_id, :v_amount);
EXCEPTION
WHEN null_salary THEN
INSERT INTO emp_audit VALUES (:v_emp_id, ...);
END;
END-EXEC;
This technique allows the calling application to handle error conditions in specific exception handlers.

Reinstall Acrobrat Pro X. Can't reinstall Acrobat Pro X after computer crash

I am trying to reinstall Acrobat Pro X after a compter crash. I enter the correct serial number but then get asked to select a prior product, in my case Acrobat Pro 9, and enter the serial number (this is the number that appears in my account), but there is nowhere to enter the serial number. And if I try to reinstall Pro 9 it won't let me. Do I have to deinstall Pro X first, or what? ALl input welcomed, thanks. Shanter

Thanks Bill, that seems to have done the trick. I am now successfully
reinstalling Pro X.

Functionality of Adobe Acrobat Pro for Mac questions?

Greetings! After 35 years in the Windows environment, I became the proud owner of a MacBook air last night, and I want to install Adobe Acrobat Pro for Mac on it. I would like to know if the features and functionality of the Mac version are the same as those on the Adobe Acrobat Standard that I have been using in my Windows environment for so many years.
The Windows version gives me everything I need, most importantly the ability to add text as annotations into documents that have been scanned and sent to me as PDFs, fill in forms, create forms, etc.
Additionally, can someone help me with the differences between the subscription version and the full purchase version? Does the subscription version have any problems, is it just as functional as the full purchase version?
Thank you so much all!
S.

If you don't have a physical printer hooked up to your Mac you can still do the Save As Adobe PDF with a "faux" printer setup. Here are the steps to set that up:
1. Go to Apple menu>System Preference>Printers and Scanners
2. Press the plus symbol button "+"
3. In the Add dialog select IP at the top
4. in the Address field put the numbers 127.0.0.1
5. In the Protocol pop-up menu make sure that Line Printer Daemon - LPD is selected
6. Leave the Queue field bland for the default printer
7. In the Name field it will say "127.0.0.1" and you can leave it to that or change it to anything you want.
8. Leave the Location field blank
9. Leave the Use field pop-up menu field at the default which is Generic PostScript Printer.
10. Click the Add button
11. You will get the message:
"Unable to verify the printer on your network.
Unable to connect to '127.0.0.1' due to an error.
Would you still like to create the printer?"
12. Click the Continue button.
13. In the Setting up '127.0.0.1...' dialog click the OK button
14. Open up TextEdit
15. Type some test text (e.g. Test Text)
16. In TextEdit Go to File>Print
17. In the Print dialog, press on the PDF button on the lower Left side of the window.
18. Select Save As Adobe PDF.
19. In the Save As Adobe PDF dialog, select your Adobe PDF Settings and whether or not you want the resulting PDF to open in Adobe Acrobat Pro and then click the Continue button.
20. In the Save window, title your PDF in the Save As: field, navigate to the location you want to save the PDF and then click the Save button.
21. Done.

Problem with "SELECT...FOR UPDATE OF..." and "POST command" combination

Problem with "SELECT...FOR UPDATE OF..." and "POST command" combination
Problem in committing transactions in Multiple Forms (Oracle Forms) with POST built-in command:
Consider that the following statements are written in WHEN-WINDOW-CLOSED trigger of a called form.
Statements in called form (Form name: FORM_CHILD):
go_block('display_block') ;
do_key('execute_query') ;
-- Data from table_b will be populated in this block, based on the value of COLUMN_1 obtained
-- from TABLE_A.
-- Example: If the value of COLUMN_1 is 10, then all the matching records from TABLE_B, which
-- are inserted with value 10 in TABLE_B.COLUMN_1 will be fetched and shown here.
if user_choice = 'YES' then
commit ;
else
rollback ;
end if ;
Statements in calling forms:
There are two calling forms having following statements and it is going to call the above said called form.
CALLING FORM 1
Statements in KEY-COMMIT trigger:
post;
call_form(form_child, no_activate) ;
Statements in ON-INSERT trigger:
select column_1
from table_a
for update of column_1
where column_2 = 'X' ;
update table_a
set column_1 = column_1 + 1
where column_2 = 'X' ;
insert into table_b ...;
insert into table_b ...; Statements in KEY-COMMIT trigger:
post;
call_form(form_child, no_activate) ;
CALLING FORM 2:
Statements in ON-INSERT trigger:
select column_1
from table_a
for update of column_1
where column_2 = 'X' ;
update table_a
set column_1 = column_1 + 1
where column_2 = 'X' ;
insert into table_b ...;
insert into table_b ...;
insert into table_b ...;
Our understanding:
Assume that both the forms are running from two different machines/instances, issuing commit at the same time. In this case, forms will start executing the statements written in ON-INSERT trigger, the moment POST command is executed. Though the commit is issued at the same time, according to oracle, only one of the request will be taken for processing first. Assume that calling form 1 is getting processed first.
So, it fetches the value available in COLUMN_1 of TABLE_A and locks the row from further select, update, etc. as SELECT...FOR UPDATE command is used (note that NOWAIT is not given, hence the lock will be released only when COMMIT or ROLLBACK happens) and proceed executing further INSERT statements. Because of the lock provided by the SELECT...FOR UPDATE command, the statements in calling form 2 will wait for the resource.
After executing the INSERT statements, the FORM_CHILD is called. The rows inserted in to TABLE_A will be queried and shown. The database changes will be committed when user closes the window (as COMMIT is issued in its WHEN-WINDOW-CLOSED trigger). Then the SELECT...FOR UPDATE lock will be released and calling form 2's statements will be executed.
Actual happenings or Mis-behavior:
Calling form 2 starts executing INSERT statements instead of waiting for SELECT...FOR UPDATE lock. Also, the value selected from TABLE_A.COLUMN_1 is same in both the calling forms, which is wrong.
The rows inserted into TABLE_B are having similar COLUMN_1 values in calling form 2 and they are fetched and shown in the called form FORM_CHILD.
Note that in calling form 2 also POST only is issued, but the changes posted there are accessible in calling form 1 also, which is wrong.
Kindly suggest us as to how to fix above problem. It will be much use, if you can send us the information regarding the behavior of Oracle Forms POST built-in also.
Our mail ID: [email protected]
Thanks a lot in advance.

You have several problems:
1. On-Insert will ONLY run if you have created a new record in a base-table block. If you haven't done that, then the POST command will not cause it to run.
2. Select for update without a "no wait" will lock records for the first form, but when the second form tries this, it will hit the ORA-00054 exception, and will NOT wait. The only way you could make it wait is to issue an UPDATE sql command, which is not such a good way to go.
All POST does is issues SQL insert or update commands for any changes the user has made to records in a form's base-table blocks, without following with a Commit command.
Also understand that Commit is the same as Commit_Form, and Rollback is the same as Clear_Form. You should read up on these in the Forms help topics.

Can I load Acrobat Pro 6 onto Windows 7 and upgrade to Acrobat Pro 9?

Can I load Acrobat Pro 6 onto Windows 7 and upgrade to Acrobat Pro 9? My former PC ran on Windows XP and this new PC runs on Windows 7. I don't want to shell out another $449 when Acrobat Pro 9 worked fine for me.

You might be able to install Acrobat 6 for this purpose, but you probably won't have to. When you install Acrobat 9 Upgrade it should (if I remember right) ask for the serial number of your "qualifying" product and at that point you put in the Acrobat 6 serial.

Select...for update and close()

I am seeing unexpected behaviour when working with select for update, and I hope to get some clarification about it. I have RTFM and checked out any online information I could find, but didn't see too much about row level locks. See below for the problem I am encountering
We have an application with lots of threads on multiple nodes that uses a combination of row level locking and status flags to mark a row as being processed.
We are locking the rows, and then after completing the select ... for update statement we are closing the JDBC statement.
On executing the statement.close() it appears as though the row level lock is lost. Can anyone confirm this behaviour, or tell me that I am misreading the behaviour that I am seeing.
Thanks in advance,
Robert Dawson

I'd expect this behavior regardless of whether autocommit was on. If a statement is closed, any locks held by that statement must be released. If they weren't, no other statement would have permission to remove the locks, so the rows would remain locked indefinitely.

I can't activate Acrobat Pro license

Hello
after the inconveniences and the impossibility to connect and sync my documents with Creative Cloud Connection, now it is the turn of Acrobat Pro to giving me trouble.
I can't activate Acrobat Pro license, so I can't use it.
After launching Acrobat Pro, a blank page that should contain the license agreement appears, but the button for accepting the license doesn't work. I have deinstalled and reinstalled several times the application without success.
Thank you to explain me how to resolve this problem.
