CS3 Acrobat8 won't install over Acrobat Pro 7

Hello,
Briefly, I just acquired CS3 and I already had Acrobat 7 Pro on my machine. When I run the install, Acrobat 7 is removed and the Acrobat 8 install fails.
I've uninstalled and re-installed several times
Any guidance?
Thanks
Chris

Use the Microsoft Installer Cleanup to remove all traces of Acrobat 7 or 8.

  • Acrobat Pro XI when installed over Acrobat 9 Pro removes LiveCycle Designer.

    Acrobat Pro XI when installed over Acrobat 9 Pro removes LiveCycle Designer.  Forms Central can't open LiveCycle Designer Forms so what do you do?
    I have uninstalled XI and re-installed LiveCycle Designer only.  On re-installation, I chose not to uninstall version 9 and to do a customer set up (not installing forms central).
    LiveCycle is now working along with Acrobat ProXI

    LiveCycle Designer is no longer distributed as part of the Acrobat release. I think it is available as a separate product. At this point, Acrobat provides the AcroForm type tools (kind of hard to get to, just as in some previous versions) and the option for Forms Central. The whole focus has changed. I suspect that others may be in the same situation of trying to get their forms to interact in Acrobat or Forms Central, but at this point I do not think there is any way to back Designer forms into either of the two current formats. Not much help, but a comment in any case.

  • I installed Adobe Acrobat Pro XI on my Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) machine. It won't start.

    I installed Adobe Acrobat Pro XI on my Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) machine. I double click the desktop icon and double click on a PDF file and the hour glass (circle) appears for about 5 seconds but no Adobe Acrobat.

    If it's not launching you can try repairing it from the control panel.  If that doesn't work then try reinstalling it.

  • Installing Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 on a new laptop, but it doesn't accept my serial number

    Hello,
    On my old laptop I had installed and licensed Adobe Acrobat Pro 9. I retired my old laptop and bought a new one. I want to install Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 now on the new one. But seemingly my serial number is not accepted any more. That's what I did so far
    1. Downloaded Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-8-9-product-downloads.html
    2. Retrieved my serial number from Adobe ID (it matched what I have found out locally on my old computer)
    2. Started the installation
    3. Entered my serial number when asked for. Then I get a message "Invalid Serial Number"
    Who can help please?
    Best regards,

    Moving this discussion to the Acrobat installation & Update Issues forum.
    RolfSchlagenhaft there are no registered Adobe software titles under the account you are posting to the Adobe forums with.  You will want to attempt to locate the account which has your registered serial number.  You can find more details at Find your serial number quickly - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html.  If you need assistance locating the account which contains your serial number then please contact our support team at Contact Customer Care.
    Finally if you have a volume license for Acrobat 9 Professional then the installation files are only available at https://licensing.adobe.com/.  The installation files you downloaded are for the retail version of Acrobat 9 Professional.  This may be another cause of you receiving the message that your serial number is invalid.

  • Adobe PDF 9.0 shows up under Printers and Scanners (Mac OS) after re-installing Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0

    - recently re-installed Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0 on my new Mac (OSX version 10.9.3)
    - after re-installing Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0 an icon called Adobe PDF 9.0 shows up under Printers and Scanners
    - every single time I want to scan, my printer/scanner Brother automatically chooses Adobe PDF 9.0 as printer/scanner, although my printer/scanner Brother is set as standard printer/scanner
    - did bring the issue under attention of Customer Service who directed me to this website

    Hi Pieter,
    Acrobat 9 has not been tested and is unsupported Mac Mavericks.
    You might face compatibility issues with it.

  • Installing Adobe Acrobat Pro on Laptop & New PC

    Previously submitted on 9/02/12 but pressed for an answer quickly, please.
    I have previously installed Adobe Acrobat Pro on a laptop and a desktop computer. I had to replace the desktop with a new system having Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.  I have installed the Windows XP Virtual system to run several legacy programs crucial to my business.  I have installed Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.5 in the Windows 7 operating system and now need it installed in the XP Virtual system to access the Adobe printer for use with the legacy programs. How do I accomplish this feat?
    Does the XP virtual installation count as a 3rd installation which is not allowed by my license even though this computer is the 2nd computer permitted by my license? If so, it seems I might be penalized.
    Help, please. Is there an option in lieu of purchasing a new license?
    Thanks in advance for all responses.

  • Install error Acrobat Pro 9 stops at Synaptics

    During the install of Acrobat Pro 9 I am getting an error that stops the install.  It says:
    A newer version of the Synaptics Pointing Device Driver is installed.
    If you want to install the older version of the Driver, please uninstall the current Synaptics driver by selecting "Synaptics Pointing Device" from the "Add/Remove Programs" Control Panel, then run Setup again.
    It only gives one option and that is "Ok".  The install cancels when ok is pressed.
    I don't have "Synaptics Pointing Device" in  "Add/Remove Programs".
    There is a touch pad on this Lenovo laptop running XP Pro .
    How can I get around this and install  Acrobat Pro 9?
    Thanks,
    Docfxit

    Hi Docfxit
    I have found at least one other instance of this happeneing:
    http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Options-Accessories/USB-UltraNav-keyboard-problems/m-p/66041
    And it is not Adobe related. I think you should try Lenovo for fixing this...
    Our whole office has Lenovo ThinkPads with XP Pro and have had no problem...
    The Synaptics Pointing Device Driver is the driver that enables your touchpad.... So it would be under the hardware management devices, not add/remove programs... fishy...
    Other than that, it looks like it's not specific to the Acro 9 installer, so we'll be hard put to help here...
    Good luck!

  • Cannot install Adobe Acrobat Pro on Windows XP

    Good day,
    I cannot install Adobe Acrobat Pro on my windows XP machine with SP2 and the latest updates.
    The error says that the software cannot be installed on the Operating system, please see minimum requirements. I meet all these but cannot install
    I saw a similar question posted on the forums but it is unanswered.
    Please assist me.

    Hi,
    This link has the minimum system requirements for Acrobat 10 Pro : Acrobat X Pro Tech Specs
    On Windows XP, the minimum requirement is SP3 for 32 bit. I would recommend that you update to SP3 by running Windows Update and then reinstall the application.

  • CS3 InDesign won't install, Mac  OS 10.5

    I've just received CS3 Design premium, and InDesign won't install. There is no reason given, just that it won't install. Shared components and Version Cue Server won't install either. I just upgraded to Leopard on a g5 Intel system. Any ideas on what to do next?
    Thanks,

    CS3 InDesign won't install, Mac OS 10.5
    Hi Darlene,
    I think I just got lucky - it hesitated a few times then finally clicked.
    One of the previous posters suggested to not install Version Cue, so I
    clicked that one off. Did you repair the permissions and restart before
    installing? Spin around 3 times clicking your heels saying, there's no
    program like InDesign?
    If you can stay in InD 2 I would suggest that, expecially if you use a lot
    of clipping paths. InD3 has a bug there that won't see interior paths, so
    you have to go back into Photoshop to rework the image. If I had only know
    that before.....
    Good luck!

    to install adobe acrobat pro xi and place the license tell me it is invalid

    @Test-Screen-Name
    On the original disk I fine the "install.app" version 6.0.335.0
    There is no seperat CS6 install app.
    In the map "Payloads" I find

    AcrobatXProfessional10.0-mul
    and many other files including
    AdobeDesignWebPremium6-mul

    So I can't find a separate "CS installer"
    @Rave:
    I install stand alone on my MacBook Air. Since this MBA has no disc drive I use the disc drive of my iMac. I copied the installation disk to my iMac and then with "sharing" from my iMac to MBA.

  • Can't install Adobe Acrobat Pro 9

    I purchased CS5 about 18 months ago and have recently had the need to install Adobe Acrobat Pro 9, which came with it. However, the disc isn't being read and I can't find anywhere to download Acrobat Pro 9 in order to use the serial number. Please advise! I need it quite urgently.

    I am in the same situation.  I have a legal copy of Adobe Acrobat Preo 9, but can no longer read the disk I made when I first downloaded it.  I downloadeD Adobe Acrobat  9 extended and tried a friends copy of Adobe Acrobat 9 standard.  Neither of them would accept my seria number, which I downloaded from My Adobe.  Dealing with Adobe is ftustrating.

  • Hi, can I install Adobe Acrobat Pro on 2 devices?

    Can I install Adobe Acrobat Pro on 2 devices? I have a desktop running Windows 7 and am thinking of buying a laptop running Windows 8. I would be the sole user and only using one device at a time.

    Yes, the license permits installing on two machines at the same time as long as the same software is not being used on both simultaneously.

  • Pdf printer is not get installed while installing adobe acrobat pro 11 in win 7 32 bit

    pdf printer is not get installed while installing adobe acrobat  pro 11 in win 7 32 bit

    BlackCat,
    Two things:
    1) Acrobat 8 Pro is not Win 7 compatible, no less Win 7 64-bit copmpatible
    2) Reader X and Acrobat 8 are not a supported combination. Reader X and Acrobat X is the first Windows combination that is supported by Adobe. Reader X and Acrobat 8 will cause problems.
    You are using a brand new 64-bit OS, you need to use an application that is designed to work with it. Acrobat X is the way to go, HOWEVER, there are still growing pains with Acrobat X, Win 7 64-bit, and the latest version of Office.

    Hi there
    Thank you for your reply.
    When I click on the link for the cleaner however, before I can download the
    file, it gives me this message:
    "Important - This tool is not for use with any creative suite products
    including suites that contain Acrobat. It can only be used with standalone
    versions of Acrobat and Adobe Reader"
    Adobe X Pro forms part of my Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design Standard?
    Please advise.
    Thanks
