Hi Susan,
Please try the following:
The path listed below points to the Library folder at the root of your startup disk, not the Library folder in your user home folder.
Delete all the files from following folders:
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/SL Store/
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/SL cache/
And, delete all files from following folder except cache.db
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PCD/
Then launch Acrobat, Accept EULA and enter the serial number again and check.

Rave

I have acrobat pro on my lap top and recently installed acrobat pro on my Mac Mini, but the text recognition function is not working, does anyone have any advice on how to remedy this problem?

I have acrobat pro on my lap top and recently installed acrobat pro on my Mac Mini, but the text recognition function is not working, does anyone have any advice on how to remedy this problem?

On my laptop when I open up a pdf file and do a search for a particular
text phrase it prompts me to run a character analysis. Whereas on my mac
mini, when I try to engage the same process it just says it couldn't find
the phrase and doesn't even try and run a character analysis. I tried
clicking on the tool bar and the recognize text tab but nothing there seems
to do anything.
In trying to figure out the issue on my own I noticed one thing. I run a
small law firm in St. Louis and I scan in all my files to which are
subsequently emailed to my outlook account where I will save them as pdf's
to their respective folders. On my laptop when I open up an email from my
scanner I see the image of a acrobat document next to the attachment
paperclip symbol. However, when I open up the same email on my mac mini I
notice instead of an acrobat file image it shows a Preview file image (the
program used to open up pdf's before I installed acrobat).
Hope this helps!
Sincerely,
Jonathan McAllister

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

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??

I started to install Acrobat Pro and I need to stop the installation.

I started to install Acrobat Pro on my Windows 7 machine and the download is stuck at 1% so I tried to cancel and the install window won't close.

Just try a separate download and then do the install. Also be sure you are logged in as the administrator and have anti-virus disabled.

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.

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.

I need to re-install acrobat pro 9 - from where can I download the software?

My original purchase of Acrobat Pro 9 was downloaded online. I have not other copy and I need to reinstall to deal with corrupted files. Currently I am unable to download updates.

All I can say is that it works for me.
Perhaps post a comment at the bottom of the prodesigntools.com download page and see if the owner of the website has some suggestions for you

Trouble with Adobe Acrobat Pro installation from Creative Cloud

When I attempt to install Adobe Acrobat Pro from Creative Cloud, it will always fail on the first attemp. If I retry, it installs it. Then, when I open a pdf document, the application quits in seconds. I get a modal window with the license agreement. However, it is blank and the pull downs are empty. I hit a dead end.
This is so aggravating; especially when Adobe is charging me for my membership every month.
What gives? Can someone help with this?
Brian

Brian which operating system are you using? Do you receive any specific errors during the installation process? If you are using a Windows operating system then please uninstall Acrobat using the Programs and Features control panel. Once done then please try using the Acrobat Cleaner Tool available at http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html.
Also you mentioned that the EULA window is blank you may also want to see Blank EULA screen appears on Acrobat XI launch - http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/blank-eula-screen-appears-acrobat.html. Solution 2 is not likely to be relevant unless you are using an operating system not currently supported by the Creative Cloud Desktop application.

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?

Failure to install Acrobat Pro Windows from cs3

I installed cs3 yesterday and it installed all apps but Acrobat Pro...I tried 3 times to install just Acrobat Pro but each time it stated "failed to install" - what can I do to install this? Prior to this I ahd cs3 installed correctly (including Acrobat Pro) for a long while and all worked fine. However, last week I suddenly had problems with Acrobat (it gave runtime error) so I uninstalled and tried to reinstall...then all the above occured. At one point (just to view a doc) I installed current reader version from online...but promptly uninstalled it to try and reinstall Pro again...any help would be appreciated! Kathy

Thanks...this worked...I am now closer than before to re-using the
software...however, now I have a new error message on Acrobat Pro from CS3:
"Missing PDFMaker files. Do you want to run the installer in repair mode?"
When I select "yes" the system takes for ever to do nothing. Any insight on
this?
Kathy

Laptop is new, data was migrated from personal laptop, also Yosemite. User had XI installed however would not launch. Deleted all references to Acrobat - libraries, preferences, install folders, etc. Gave user Root Access and Repaired Disk Permissions. Receive "Installation Failed" error every time.

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
