Cannot Install Acrobat 9 Pro Extended - More Functional Product Available

I am trying to install Acrobat 9 Pro Extended on my new PC. I get an error that a more functional product is avilable on my PC and the install closes. I installed Framemaker 10 before attempting Acrobat 9 Pro Extended. I notice a folder in my files that is Acrobat 10 (but there is no icon or program option in the menus). Is this the problem? Do I need to uninstall Framemaker, then install Acrobat 9, and then reinstall Framemaker? Any help is appreciated.

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:

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.

Cannot install Acrobat Pro XI

Hi, cannot install Pro ZI on windows vista, SP2 and all other updates done.
Any suggestions? Do I need to upgrade windows to use Acrobat...

Getting the system requirement box, but have updated all security etc. Seems I cannot use Acrobat Pro XI with Vista? Correct??

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

Please post the install.log contents to the forum.

Cannot install Acrobat Pro from Cs4Web Premium. Mac osx lion

I have had a problem for a while that although the updater keeps announcing an update and allows its download it will not update saying that Acrobat Pro needs re installing.
I have tried to reinstall several times but each time the install hangs on "Preparing to install".
Today I bit the bullet and uninstalled Acrobat Pro to try and resolve the problem and I still, after numerous attempts, get the installation hanging up at "Preparing to install".
I have repaired disk permissions and no change.
The disk image I am using, fully paid CS4 Web Premium, was downloaded today.
I need Acrobat Pro to function on a daily basis and any help would be hugely appreciated.
Thank you for your time
Will

I am having the same problem as Willwinch, and it is increasingly upsetting me. My Acrobat Pro 9 was running perfectly fine until a HD failure. I installed and restored my files from a time machine backup and right away received a "Suite Product Activation Needed" error message. After chatting with Adobe customer support, I was advised to ininstall and reinstall Acrobat Pro. Fine, did that only to get an error that said "Licensing for this product has stopped working.". More customer support chatting indicated that the activation process for Acrobat Pro 9 is not supported with Lion. That is worth repeating, the ACTIVATION process is not supported. They said nothing about the actual software as much as I tried to get the "support" to clarify.
To make things more frustrating, my only option to get Acrobat Pro would be to upgrade to version X... Which I do not care to do. I paid $2600 for the Master Collection 16 months ago and I was hoping I could have functioning software a little longer than that. To make things EVEN MORE frustrating, because I bought the suite, I can only upgrade to the CS6 suite. Not only do I not care for Acrobat Pro X, I don't care for the entire suite at the moment. I am comfortable with CS5.
There has got to be some license file I can access and copy over or some other method of activation that will allow me to use my legitimte paid-for software that obviously works. I teach at a university and for years I have been a strong advocate of not pirating software to my students for a bunch of reasons. One of those reasons was "You will be glad you did when you need support". It is sad that is not true. I am not about to start pirating Adobe software, but I sure am going to be less likely to advocate against it from now on.
EDIT: This gets awesomer. I finally called a sales rep and he said I could upgrade to just Acrobat Pro X rather than having to upgrade the entire suite... which is sort of a consolation prize since I was hoping to get Acrobat Pro 9 working as it was. However, there was a little emailing and account snafu which resulted in Adobe charging my card twice AND me getting locked out of my Adobe account. Now I get to wait 5 to seven days for $199 of the $398 I was charged today to be refunded. It is amazing how easy money flows into Adobe and how difficult "service" and "product" are to get out. The sales rep was at least friendly and not condesending as the tech help was earlier.

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 on Mac

Hi There,
I was wondering if someone could help me figure out how to put Acrobat Pro on my mac. I have no idea what is going on! I have a Cloud subscription and I have downloaded Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign with no problems. I cannot for the life of me get Acrobat Pro to work. I have researched forums and tried different things but nothing is working. I get an error message saying "Try back later" and a code of (~61). Does anyone have any tricks that worked for them? I really need the program loaded ASAP to get something finished up.
Thanks in advance.

Smore80 are you on a managed network or what type of network connection are you using? Do you receive the -61 error when you are attempting to download Acrobat?

I cannot install Acrobat Pro from CS4 Design Premium disks.

Acrobat Pro Installer will not run from my disk. Original purchase CS 4. Updated in past to CS7. Running Mac Mavericks OS on new mini. I have docs serial #s etc. Tried unsuccessfully to install AcrobatUpd11009 will not run installer on that or the original disk.
Is there a support number I can call at Adobe to get help? or are user forums their answer to customer support?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hey karih8198700,
Could you please let me know how have you been trying to install Acrobat on your MAC.
Please ensure that you are logged in as administrator and anti-virus is disabled as that might interrupt installation.
Also, please share the screenshot of the error message as I need to know the exact error that comes.
Hope to hear from you.

Anubha

Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended Will Not Install

I have the Adobe Master Collection CS5 installed, but needed to use some Acrobat features which I understood were only available in the Pro Extended version, so am trying now to install Extended onto the PC.
The installation however keeps stopping saying I "already have a more functional product installed" ... Acrobat on this PC is the Pro version, but is not Extended ... is there a way to get it to install without removing the current version and all its settings?

Since you have CS5 master collection installed- it comes with Acrobat 9.3 and Acrobat Pro Extended,
that you are trying to install is version no. 9.0. So when you launch the installer, you get the message that you have
more recent product already installed.
For installing Acrobat Pro Extended 9.0, you'll have to deactivate and uninstall Acrobat 9.3 and then install Acrobat Pro Extended.

Cannot see shared comments in Acrobat Pro Extended

If I use Adobe Reader 10 to look at a shared review PDF, I can see a screen asking me to CONNECT. And when the PDF is open, I can see all the comments with the "Check for new comments" button at the top left side of the PDF file.
Now they installed Acrobat Pro Extended for me the other day. When I open the same review PDF in Pro Extended, I do not see the CONNECT screen, and I do not see any comments. What's wrong with Pro Extended? Why is it not working? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Brian

Ok. Perhaps the option 'Check for updates' has been blocked by your IT department. Ask them to get the patch for you if you dont find an option.
As far as seeing the comments in the review is concerned, if it is a review file, you should be getting a yellow bar when you open it in Acrobat/Reader. If you dont see it on opening the review file, or you dont get the Connect/Welcome dialogs, probably it is no longer a shared review file. Try with some other review files and see if you can get it working.

Problem with Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended version 9.3.4 reading Inventor 2009

I would like to be able to generate 3D PDF files from Autodesk Inventor CAD models (e.g. .iam files) using Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended. I am constrained to use Inventor 2009. When I originally installed Acrobat Pro Extended, I was able to make this work after installing the IMPORT3D update at:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4073
Recently (9/5/2010), I updated Acrobat Pro Extended to version 9.3.4. I believe that following that update, I lost the ability to read in Inventor 2009 files. Acrobat Pro Extended now gives the error messages:
"Exception has been raised" followed by:
"Acrobat could not open 'file' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). To create an Adobe PDF document, go to the source application. Then print the document to Adobe PDF."
This is exactly what happened when I first installed Acrobat Pro extended and before I installed the IMPORT3D update mentioned above. I tried re-installing that update but now the installer gives the error message:
"No qualifying products found to apply this update."
Note that Inventor 2009 does allow one to "Save Copy As" to PDF format, but this just creates a 2D PDF snapshot of the current model view -- same for print to pdf.
I suppose one thing to try is removing Acrobat Pro Extended and then re-installing without the 9.3.4 update, but with the IMPORT3D update -- but if that is necessary, then I won't be able to take advantage of any further updates (e.g. security updates) to Acrobat, which seems like a bad situation.
Has anyone else had this problem? Or is it just me?

I may have figured out what was causing my problem with conversion of Inventor 2009 to 3D PDF. After playing around with a number of inventor files, I discovered that the conversion worked fine when there were no references to external files. For example a .ipt file (part file) seemed to convert fine. I believe the problem was that on the form one obtains with Edit->Preferences->Convert to PDF->Autodesk Inventor->Edit Settings->Import->Assembly, the check box for "use root file directory" was NOT checked. Oddly, this is the default and I'm pretty sure I tried setting the conversion options to the default. In any case, I now seem to be able to perform the conversion of Inventor 2009 to 3D PDF so this problem is solved I guess.

Can't install Acrobat X Pro. Error message says I already have a more functional product installed.

I'm trying to install Adobe Acrobat X Pro. I continue to receive error messages saying I already have a more functional product installed. I have FM 12 and Adobe Reader XI.

Hi Beth,
You should not receive this message if you dont have Acrobat 11 installed.
Try removing Reader 11 and check.

Attempting to reinstall Acrobat Pro ver 8. Error: a more functional product installed"

My computer crashed a few months ago which required reinstalling all software. Acrobat Pro was not showing up on my programs menu yesterday so I assumed I had not reinstalled it. I attempted the installation and received error: "Setup has detected that you already have a more functional product installed. Setup will now terminate."
Assuming that it was installed, with updates, I decided to uninstall it. It is not listed as an installed program in Control Panel / Programs and Features; however, there is an Acrobat 8.0 folder in Program Files/Adobe. After this didn't work, I uninstalled Adobe Reader 9.0 but it made no difference.
The following are installed: Adobe AIR, Adobe Captivate 4, Adobe Creative Suite 4 Production Premium, Adobe Creative Suite 4 Web Standard, and Adobe Reader 9.1 (which I reinstalled today).
I called tech support, but since it is not the current version, have to pay for support. Can anyone help with this problem?
Thanks!

You are not supposed to have Reader and Acrobat Pro installed on the same computer. Additionally, your CS 4 Production Premium should have come with Acrobat Pro 9! If that is installed, you should not try to install 8. See if you can fix the installation of CS 4 Production Premium installation to get it to install Acrobat Pro 9. If that is not possible, I'd advise deactivating your Adobe Software, running the CS 4 Cleansscript and then try re-installing fram scratch.
