CS5 -- Acrobat 9 Pro disc not recognized

PC, running Windows 7. I just installed CS5 Design Premium from the DVD and all seems to be well. Then I inserted the Acrobat 9 Pro disc. The drive spins for awhile, then I get a prompt to insert a disc (which is already inserted). Same thing happens when I insert the Content disc. Both discs are recognized on other PCs, and every other disc I have -- including the CS5 DP disc of course -- works fine in the same drive.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks, John

I hit the same problem except I had a Reader X installed not a pro version.  For me the solution was to really make sure that nothing else was running.  I followed the steps from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2438651#reso2 the link is goofy so here is the pertinent text:

  • Acrobat Pro 9 not recognized by Safari

    When I could not view a PDF file in Safari, I trashed the Safari preferences, restarted Safari, and pointed it to a PDF file that would typically launch Acrobat to present the PDF file. Safari asks me to specify the Acrobat application that will be used as the PDF viewer. Safari tolerates my choice of Acrobat Professional 8, which is still on my computer after having installed CS4, but the selection of Acrobat Pro 9 can't be made because it is dimmed.
    Does this mean that I must keep Acrobat 8 around indefinitely, or is there another way to select Acrobat Pro 9 as Safari's chosen PDF viewer?

    Open Acrobat 9 go to help go to repair and replace and see if there is an item for Safari Plugin if so choose to install.
    If you use the Plugin from Schubert for PDF. remove that from your internet plugins Folder from within main Libarary folder or within the Internet Plugins folder in libary folder in your User Profile folder. If you have both plugins remove the adobe PDF plugin.
    Then restart Safari. THe Schubert Plugin works with Safari, but also with Mozilla, Opera, OmniWeb and others while the adobe one only works with Safari only. When using OS9 the Pdf Plugin for Acrobat worked with any browser even Mac's version of Internet Explorer.
    Why Adobe want to go backwards and support only one browser, when Safari has but just a very small following, I'll never know.

    WE know Disk Warrior is more reliable, hence more useful, and should be in any disk mechanics toolchest.
    For the record, I don't know anything of the kind. I have yet to see evidence that Disk Warrior is useful at all.
    What I do know is that you seem to take every opportunity you get to promote it in these forums. Do you work for Alsoft?
    Let me be a little more explicit. My opinion is that Disk Warrior is a waste of money if one has backups. If a journaled HFS directory is so badly corrupted that it can't be repaired by Disk Utility, then the volume should be reformatted and restored from backup, which has the same effect as running DW, but is probably faster and doesn't cost $99.

  • Acrobat Pro XI not working at all in Windows7 64bit - tried everything

    I am using Acrobat Pro XI not working at all in Windows7 64bit - tried everything. About a month ago I built new computer. Acrobat worked fine. In last week it started not producing PDFs using Save As and would crash when processing scanned document. So I redownloaded exe file, used the acrocleaner to erase existing program, and reloaded Acrobat Pro XI.
    No the program will not start at all. Freezes when opening by clicking PDF file or by opening program icon.
    plz help

    > Disable all Non-Microsoft Startup Services. (Ref : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/disable-startup-items-services-windows.html )
    > Disable all the Antivirus softwares like CA, Norton,Mc Afee etc. temporarily from the computer.
    Reboot and try installing in the new enabled Admin user account and check.

  • Adobe acrobat pro is not supported on this architecture

    adobe acrobat pro is not supported on this architecture i have cs4 me

    I had this problem yesterday. An odd thing had happened, and a folder within the FCP had been corrupted somehow and was broadcasting that it was a .mov file, when it was in fact a folder.
    The folder in question was the "MacOS" folder within the FCP application file. I created a new folder, moved the contents of the corrupted folder into the new folder, deleted the corrupted folder, and renamed the new folder MacOS.
    And it works again.
    Thanks to Zebulun, Jon Chappell, and Shane Ross for helping find a solution...

  • My Acrobat Pro will not open my PDF Files any suggestions?

    My acrobat pro does not open, anyone else out there with the same problem?

    Sherbear2359 (I believe that the US has the right to arm bears so I will be very nice.)
    My Adobe Acrobat stopped opening pdfs. Now in the past it was Windows 8.1 playing tricks by thinking that the Adobe software was a trial which expired
    Doesn't launch after 30 days | Installed as part of a CS6 suite Tried it and it worked.
    Tried the fix again now no change.
    I suspect that a Microsoft patch stuffed it up. They have had a few problems.
    I used Reader with open with but I want pdf to be opened by Adobe.
    Thanks

  • I installed acrobat pro on my computer, and now I am unable to download items because I get a message that I need to open acrobat for the user agreement. opening acrobat pro does not help.

    I installed acrobat pro on my computer, and now I am unable to download items because I get a message that I need to open acrobat for the user agreement. opening acrobat pro does not help. What do i do?

    I have not contacted Adobe. I am using acrobat pro CC, and haven't noticed any problem with the software itself. The only problem I have had so far is when I try to download.

  • Acrobat Pro will not install

    Okay, excuse my lack of patience. But I have now called Adobe customer servic (in India, and I'm in the U.S.) three times now, and I have not resolved this issue! I am a Creative Cloud member, and my Adobe Acrobat Pro will NOT work. On top of that, the Adobe Application Manger is $%@ useless. I get errors constantly. I'm on Mac OS 10.8.1. My other Adobe software works. But Acrobat Pro has not worked at all since I purchase Creative Cloud a few months ago. At any point, if Adobe would like to fix this issue, that would be great. Like I said, I've already called three times in the last two months. And the low level tech support guys are useless. I spend an hour or two on the phone with them and the issue is NOT resolved.

    So, it totally appears as if it was a network issue. The corporate network where I work is quite likely the culprit. Where I was thrown off is that since I have admin rights on my computer, I can install software. But using Adobe Application Manager to install Adobe software wasn't working. And to make matters worse, there didn't appear to be any way to install Acrobat Pro for Mac without using AAM. The workaround that I used previously was to install the trial versions of Adobe software, and then just register them using my username and password. But the workaround for being able to install everything using AAM was to bring my computer home and download from my home network. Unfortunately, Adobe tech support didn't suggest this during the three times that I called them. But it doesn't matter now, problem is resolved.

  • Acrobat Pro V7 not opening pdfs

    Acrobat Pro V7 not opening pdfs - just started happening. are there some preferances that can be trashed etc? don't tell me this will require a full reload?

    ok I tried that but still get;
    "a required component was not found. PLease restore the Adobe Acrobate folder from your original CD."
    Thing is, I recently moved and cannot find the Adobe CD.
    AppleJack seems like a neat little application. Can it also check for duplicate files? I DL'ed a Dup Finder program once but it seems tooo convoluted to use. I couldent tell which were nesssesary files and which were simply taking up space.

  • Where can I find a download for Acrobat Pro 9 not X?

    My company recently purchased CS5 for my use after going over the 30 day trial period. Since I already had the software downloaded on my computer, I was only required to enter in the serial number. For some reason Acrobat was not downloaded as a part of that trial package. My computer will not accept DVDs (which is what the software package included) so I have no way of installing Acrobat. I have a serial number to enter in, I just need the software download to my computer by other means rather than a DVD. Now that Acrobat Pro X is out, Adobe does not provide a way to download the older version. Are there any sites out there where I can download the 9 trial? Help is much appreciated!

    Does your company not have some other computer with a DVD drive... and a USB port so you may copy to a flash drive?
