Cannot install acrobat 9 pro updates on osx lion

Hi,
I have not browsed through the forums here, so please forgive me if this question had been asked before. Are there known issues between Acrobat 9 Pro and OSX Lion? We have a user who has OSX 10.7.5 and Acrobat 9 Pro. He is not able to update Acrobat as there is no option to do so when he clicks on Help. He tried manually downloading and installing updates but when he is asked to select the copy of Adobe product to update, he only has the option to cancel.
I installed Acrobat 9 Pro on a Macbook running Mountain Lion and did not encounter any problem installing updates.
Is this a known issue?
Thanks,
M

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.

  • 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.

  • Acrobat Pro 9 in OSX Lion

    Does anyone know if Acrobat Pro version 9 for Mac will run in OSX 10.7 Lion?

    This will work. However, even though it's supported the installation of different products with different version across an enterprise environment introduces many variables, and there's no way that Adobe can test what soon becomes an infinite number of environments.
    That said, the reason Reader X was designed to work with Acrobat 9.x (the later the version the better) is because its sandboxing features make it far more secure. So upgrading to Reade X is recommended. It would be wise to test your deployment on a few machines for a bit before deploying to all your users.

  • 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?

    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.

  • I cannot install Acrobat Pro X

    I wanted to scan, but get error message that TWPIX32.DLL was missing – re-install thye program.
    I try to install it again, but the first windows that says “Preparing files” stay forever.

    Sounds bad, but make sure you
    - reboot
    - close all windows, especially but not only browser
    - turn off antivirus

  • I' m trying to install Acrobat Pro 10.1.8 Update. I'm getting the Error "Istallation fehlgeschlagen" without Error code  what can I do?

    Hi,
    I' m trying to install Acrobat Pro 10.1.8 Update. I'm getting the Error "Istallation fehlgeschlagen" without Error code . What can I do? I purchased CS5.1

    You can get the updates for the MAC from Adobe - Acrobat : For Macintosh, but apparently you already found that. Two possibilities that I can think of: 1. You have anti-virus enabled and that is causing the failure or 2. You are trying to install an update and skipped ones before it. If you start with the latest update, the download indicates the previous version required for the update. It looks like 10.1.12 can install over any previous version, so I would go for broke and install the latest.
