Cannot open Acrobat 6 Pro after opening Reader 8 and viceversa

There is a compatibility issue between Acrord32.exe and Acrobat.exe files?
My Acrobat 6 Professional does not open while viewing a PDF in Reader 8, get a empty Reader 8 window instead of Acrobat 6.
When trying the opposite, the Reader 8 shows the following error message:
"The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser. Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and try again."
Operating system is Windows XP Professional and browser is Internet Explorer 7.

Reader leaves a resident part running, even after you close it. To open Acrobat, you must first shut down the resident part from the task list.

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:

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

1.2GB of available hard-disk space

Help with Acrobat 7 Pro (making savable Reader PDFs and making columns do math)

Do forgive me as I normally don't make interactive PDFs, but I need to know a couple of things.
I'm using Acrobat Professional 7 at home, but have access to Pro 8. In 7, show do you make the PDF save info along with the PDF in Adobe Reader? I've seen how to do it in Pro 8, which allows 500 hits to the file, which is plenty fine for the use for the forms I'm making. But in Pro 7, I cannot not find this feature to let Reader save filled in form fields.
Now the attachment to my post is the second (but not as important) issue.
I need to try and make the fields on this form do adding, subtracting, and multiplication. How do I do that? I have no java programming experipence. Here is how I want the columns to work:
Texts 29, 34, 39, and 44 should add up in Text 46. Texts 30, 35, 40, and 45 should add up in Text 47.
Text 48 should subtract from Text 46 and Text 49 should subtract from Text 47 if used. The results should then show in Texts 52 and 53 respectively.
Now here's the tricky bit. Texts 50 and 51 are optional. If the senior discount is applied, then Texts 52 & 53 should have a 5% discount applied to the totals.
Is this doable by a non-programmer? Any help is greatly appreciated.

So the Feature can not be invoked by Acrobat 7 but is availble if turned on in Reader 7.
The OP said he had 7 at home but access to 8. So depending on whether Micahel was addressing Acrobat or Reader his answer can go either direction. The ability to do is in 8 and 9 Acrobat. And 7, 8, 9 Reader is able to use it.
As I phrased my comment after Michaels I defered to his expertise. And was adding the additional comments that Reader 7, 8, 9 can use it . But only 8, 9 Acrobat can invoke it.
So we are all correct to a degree.

I reinstalled Acrobat X Pro after a disk crash and it doesn't accept my serial number

After a hard drive crash and reformatting, I went to install Acrobat X Pro, and the installer accepted the serial number, but the program doesn't
This is an upgrade from Acrobat 9 Pro, but it doesn't accept that serial number either.

It will ask for BOTH of those serial numbers at different times. The Acrobat 9 serial is for a "qualifying" product. Not sure what order it will want them, look closely at the prompts.

After Upgrading Acrobat Reader XI to Acrobat XI Pro the previewer in Outlook and Windows Explorer doesn't work. I have to set the default program for .pdf's to Acrobat Reader in order for the previewer to work.
Can anyone recommend a solution?

If I set the default program for viewing PDF as Acrobat XI Pro the a PDF file will open with Acrobat XI Pro, but in Outlook I will get a white screen and the information bubble "This file cannot be previewed because there is no previewer installed for it" and in Windows Explorer I get a white screen in the preview pane.

Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan

Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan through Adobe, although Scanner says its combatible with Windows 8. Cannot reinstall drivers because Brother claims they're built-in. Help!

1. Re: Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan
Anubha Goel
I am using a Brother MFC 8460N and on Brother's site it says its compatible with win 8.1 and that the driver is already installed. When I try to scan I am told there is no preset (there was with win 7 though) and I have to "custom scan." When I try that, I hear a sound as if the printer is trying to scan, but the feeder can't pull the paper through. I then get a blank .pdf as my scan. Thanks for your advice. I will try that.

While trying to access my local network I get the message..."The page could not be opened because server cannot be found." This, after updating to Yosemite and paying (again) for the server app.

It's absolutley scandalous that a company with Apple's resources can let this happen. They should have staggered the release by region rather than opening the flood gates. The upgrade itself took me about 10 attempts to download it, and then I thought I was home free. That was until it rebooted and won't activate. It's over 2 hours now.
Scandalous!

Which operating system are you using? Do you receive any error messages? Is this the trial of Adobe Acrobat X Professional or have you purchased the software?

I cannot open reader files (most often but receive a blank screen. If I email to another macbook air it opens just fine. I downloaded latest version.

Hi TheMom1999,
Do you mean that you are unable to open the pdf files via Reader?
Which OS are you using? Have you updated Reader o v. 11.0.7 and checked?
Was it working fine for you before?

Cannot open apps iPhoto and Aperture after updates

Cannot open apps iPhoto and Aperture after updates. I'm operating ML on mbpro. Now apps will not open. Simply that.

Not simple, if as ML implies you are running Mountain Lion! If you only mean Lion, then it would be useful for you to open another User Account, and as that User test to see if either app will launch?

How can I change the default pdf reader from the installed (but not yet registered) Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to Adobe Reader XI?

How can I change the default pdf reader from the installed (but not yet registered) Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to Adobe Reader XI? I'm having some hiccups getting Adobe to register the software, but since I set it as the default .pdf reader during setup, things try (and fail) to open in the as yet unregistered software. How can I change it temporariiy to the Acrobat Reader XI that I have installed?

Anubha,
It worked! Thank you so much.
I'd opened file with the 'Open with' feature then clicking Adobe Reader,
but that didn't do it. When I used 'Open with', then 'Choose default
program...', it worked like a charm.
Again, thank you!

Cannot install Acrobat X Pro. AAM says "installed" - but no sign of the "Launch app" option.

The Adobe Application Manager states Acrobat X Pro is installed but there is no "Launch App" option.
I have succesfully installed Ai, Ps and Id, but Acrobat X Pro is giving me a headache!
The app installed with a warning and 2 errors. (I did not save the text about this event - and I cannot repeat the operation that led me there,)
I can recall some detail from the text:
• The installer could not remove data from an (old?) file from my Acrobat 9 installation.
• There was a reference to the installer "lacking permission(s)" for some operation.
• Also, some reference to my computer not supporting several "requirements".
I have since uninstalled my Acrobat 9 installation, but cannot uninstall Acrobat X Pro. (It is not listed under "Programs & Features".)
I also cannot re-install Acrobat X Pro - the AAM won't let me.
Any ideas? Can I download a trial-copy, then try to install that? Would it be recognized by the AAM?

Thank you, Baljeet - that worked well - However, the now installed Acrobat X Pro version 10,1.1.33 apparently needs a update/patch to upgrade Acrobat to vs. 10.1.3, and after much effort and many forum-suggested fixes, I cannot complete the update. (It "rolls-back" and reports an Error 1310. Error writing to file: C:\Config.Msi\2c4f05.rbf. Verify.......access to that directory.")
I have also received the same ("1310") error, but referencing a lack of sufficient "permission to modify....a certain file". (I can't now recall which file.)
To further complicate matters, my Secunia P.S. Inspector app also reported the need for an update - which did not complete either. It is now perpetually "Waiting for update to complete".
I hope you can solve this problem too! Thanks.

I am running IE 11 on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit Service Pack 1. When I attempt to install Flash Player, it goes through all of the steps, tells me the player is installed, and welcomes me. I cannot open the player and it does not appear in the Start Menu, Task Manager, System Tray, or anywhere else. When I try to open a file, the site tells me Flash player is not installed. I have even downloaded it to a separate folder and ran the install with IE shut down completely. And Shockwave in ENABLED but in 32 bit .I have been trying to get this to work for about 3 weeks now. HELP!!!

Flash Player is a browser add-on, not an executable program.
If you need to open a local SWF file you will need the standalone player (Projector) from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
Note that the download is the player, not an installer, so you will need to make the file association manually.
