Cannot Install Acrobat 9 Pro after Installing IE8

The story... Running Vista Business. I've been running Acrobat 9 Pro for a while now. I have since upgraded my browser from IE6 (default install) to IE7 to IE8. Today I decided to uninstall/reinstall Acrobat 9 Pro to troubleshoot an issue. All of a sudden, the Acrobat 9 Pro installer quits during the preinstall checks and says, "Acrobat requires Internet Explorer version 6".
At this point, downgrading IE is out of the question (for a multitude of reasons), so I re-ran the Acrobat 9 installer, this time doing a custom install. In the advanced settings, I unchecked the PDFMaker for Internet Explorer option. After that, the installer ran without any errors. Wanted to post this in case some else out there runs into this issue.
Apparently when Adobe built Acrobat 9, they assumed that IE versions would never go above 6.
Bug or bust? Your call.

Hi, yes, understood that they are different things. However, if I'm to
rely on the link provided on the first reply then does it follow that 9
Pro is also not supported on Mountain Lion? I have a MACbook here on OSX
Mountain Lion, and as I've also mentioned on my first post, I was able to
install 9 Pro and update it as well.
It really is just odd that Lion is singled out here. I also checked this
and there is no mention of problems with updating 9 Pro:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/known-issues-mac-os-10.html
Sorry, but just trying to really find a workaround for this issue right
now. We though of using X Pro instead but, again, if I rely on the system
requirements on this link -
http://www.adobe.com/sea/products/acrobatpro/tech-specs.html - the OSX
version our user has is still not supported.
Mac OS
Intel processor
Mac OS X v10.5.8 or v10.6.4
512MB of RAM (1GB recommended)
1.2GB of available hard-disk space
1024x768 screen resolution
DVD-ROM drive
Safari 4 for Mac OS X v10.5.8; Safari 4 or 5.0.x for Mac OS X v10.6.4
Thanks.

Installed Acrobat Pro and uninstall Reader does not work defaults back to Reader

I've installed Acrobat Pro, after installing Acrobat Reader. After I uninstall Reader and click on a PDF file, it automatically opens it in Reader. I've clicked Acrobat 9 as my preferred software, but next time, it reverts back to opening in Reader. I'm using a lenovo Yoga laptop with Windows 8.1.

Thank you very much for your reply. This didn't work. As you can tell, this is not a high priority for me, just annoying that I have to uninstall Reader every time I open a PDF. It will open in Acrobat after that, 'til I shut down my laptop.
Here's the order: I installed Acrobat Reader. Then I installed Acrobat Pro. Then I uninstalled Acrobat Reader. But when I click on a PDF file, it reopens in Acrobat Reader (I don't use Microsoft Reader - at least on purpose!) Somehow Acrobat Reader is not completely uninstalling and reactivates. Our computer consultant tried to fix it, but couldn't. He said he thot some of his research showed this was a problem in Windows 8 and 8.1?
I just tried going into Programs in the Control Panel and Acrobat Pro 9 only shows Uninstall/Change, not Repair. However, I clicked through and got to Repair. Tried that (which I've actually done before) and still didn't work.

After I install Acrobat Pro 9 i cannot open it or start it

After I install Acrobat Pro (AcroPro90_efg) trial version i cannot open it or start it. I got an warning to uninstall en install again and i did but i circle around because the same warning comes back.
How i have to solve this?
Sjors

Hello Anna,
Thanks for trying to help. But my problem is not the installing. That works
fine. But after the installing I got the problem it does not work. It says
"Licensing for this product has stopped working"

I don't know if this is the right section but I experience the following issue with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI installed on Windows 8.1. When I start Acrobat the related window opens normally but, after some scroll up and down along the document, it blocks, Acrobat doesn't respond to any command I can give and, in place of the pointer arrow, a vertical bar, as the one of the text editor appears. The only way I can stop Acrobat is by means of the task manager. I tried to de-install and the re- install Acrobat but the behaviour is always the same. What can I do??

Have you opened Acrobat and gone to Help>Updates to get an updated install?

Problem with getting PDF Options after installing Acrobat Pro 8.0

Hello
I have some problems after installing Acrobat Pro 8.0 on my MacBook Pro.
In the past I worked with Acrobat Pro 7.0.8. Then when I choose the printer Adobe PDF 7.0 I had always a pulldown menu in the Printer Settings. to decided what kind of PDF I want (Best Quality, PDF/1, PDF/3, Low Quality, etc)
After Intallion Acrobat Pro 8.0, I had both Adobe PDF 7.0 & 8.0 availible in the Printer Menu, but either the PDF Options is not availible for both (in some programs) or for both it is visible as "AdobePDFPDE70" but it has a line through it and I cann't select it.
Then I delete Adobe 7.0 & 8.0 from the folder "/usr/libexec/cups/backend/" and started Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.0 again. It recognised that an Adobe PDF need to be installed but again it is not availible or AdobePDFPDE70 has a line through.
I have still installed Adobe Pro 7.08 on my MacBook Pro because their is no PitStop Professional availible for Adobe Acrobat 8.0
Who can help me to make my PDF Options Availible. I also looked at the Adobe Site for a Solutions but I found only 4 Threads for Acrobat 8 in combination with OS X and it was regarding other problems.
I work with German OS X and german Versions of Acrobat and PitStop
Regards
Gerard
MacBook Pro 17" Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Hello
I solved the problem. The files "AdobePDFPDE700.plugin" & "AdobePDFPDE800.plugin" conflict each other.
I solved it in the following way
- quit Adobe Acrobat
- delete Adobe PDF 7.0 & 8.0 From the Printer Manager
- remove the file "AdobePDFPDE700.plugin" & "AdobePDFPDE800.plugin" from /Library/Printers/PPD Plugins/
- restart Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.0 and activate its self repair function from within the Help menu
- quit Acrobat and re-boot your Mac
- a Printer & "Adobe PDF 8.0" will be availible. Now the PDF Options are availible in all the Programs I working with!
I experienced that the Acrobat Pro 7.08 is very unstabil after the Installation of 8.0, let's hope that PitStop will bring very soon a new Version compatible with Acrobat 8.0

I am trying to re-instal Acrobat Pro on my computer after changing OS and resetting everything. I am using the CC panel for intallation. It shows it installed and won't let me install it.

I am trying to re-instal Acrobat Pro on my computer after changing OS and resetting everything. I am using the CC panel for installation. It shows it installed and won't let me install it. I doubled check everything on my computer and it is not installed. Even more, all my PDF files now show an HTML extension rather that PDF and only opens in my browser, which means the program is not here.
How to re-install it, please, when the CC panel installer won't let me do it? Thanks!

Try "Pacifist"!
Pacifist is an application for Mac OS X that opens up .pkg installer packages, .dmg disk images, .zip, .tar, .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .pax, and .xar archives, and more, and lets you install individual files out of them. This is useful if you need to install just one file out of a package instead of the entire package

Cannot install Acrobat Pro X, 1603 error

I had Acrobat Pro X installed but was unable to do update because of 1603 error. Uninstalled Acrobat Pro X, Reader 11, Livecycle Designer, Livecycle Workbench, Flash Builder Pro 4. Ran adobe acrobat cleaner. Rebooted. Still no success.
Set DisableRollback and AlwaysInstallElevated at HKLM and HKCU in the registry. Rebooted. Install still failed but this time left program_files\adobe folder in tact. No shortcuts from start menu so found Acrobat.exe and opened that. Dialog appeared saying Adobe Application Manager missing or damaged and to download. Ran setup.exe for Application manager and dialog says Installer failed to initialize, and to download Adobe Support Advisor.
Ran Support Advisor and gotb the following:
cpsid_83578r3: Error, "Validate license at Pre-chrome" when installing - Creative Suite 5
Click here for details and corrective actions related to this issue.
I don't think the Application Manager and Support Advisor make a difference since the product failed to install correctly and a license value was either not written or was deleted afterward. I wanted to stop the install action from rolling back to see if anything salvageable remained. There are no install logs at c:\program_files\common_files\adobe, but there is an installer log in the temp folder.
Reading the installer log shows error 1603 and four "Return value 3" instances. I hate to paste the entire log into a message here. Will email to anyone that wants it or will paste here if necessary. Thanks

Cannot install Acrobat Pro (X or XI) on new Macbook Pro

Sorry if I may be repeating a previous discussion, but I've not been able to install Acrobat Pro (either X which I had on my old machine, or the XI update which I just purchased to go on my new machine). I'm running a Macbook Pro on Mavericks (10.9.2).
When I try to install the software, it proceeds to the point of "Running Package Scripts" and stalls there. Reviewing other threads, I've repaired my disk permissions on several occasions to no avail on the install.
Note that an Apple tech worked with me to determine if there were any challanges on the Mac end, and he wasn't able to do the install either, including attempting the install from my root drive.
Any advice and help (particularly if you've had success with this issue) is very appreciated.
Thanks, Andre

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

Installing Acrobat Pro 9.2 in a Terminal Server Environment

Hi everyone,
we're facing massive problems in our attempts to install Acrobat Pro 9.2 in a terminal server environment. It seems to be impossible to convert for example a .doc-file into a pdf via the adobe pdf-printer using a restricted user-account. It causes an "Access denied"-popup. We solved this subproblem by granting the user write-permission in the respective registry-key (HKLM\Software\Adobe). By now everytime we try, the application freezes after the "copy-status-bar" is filled. Using a power user instead of a normal user solves this problem. So the question is what's the relevant difference between the rights of those user groups.
Thanks for your help!

You can also try to update your Acrobat by applying patches one by one.
to update upto latest version of Acrobat i.e 9.5, you need to apply the following updates
9.3.0   download location: < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4605 >
9.3.2   download location < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4654 >
9.3.3   download location < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4695 >
9.4      download location < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4851 >
9.4.2   download location < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4931 >
9.4.5   download location < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5118 >
9.4.6   download location < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5237 >
9.5     download location < http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5330 >
You can download the above mentioned patches from the corrosponding download link and apply one by one in same order as mentioned above.
This is a bit lengthy process, but I hope you will be able to update your Acrobat.
Thanks.

Adobe Acrobate Pro re-Install

My old laptop, which had Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 installed, had a hard disk hard failure. I am trying to install from the original CD onto a new computer and the install has told me that I must deactivate on my old computer (which I cannot do because it is broken) so that I can install on my new computer. How do I proceed now?
