Documented fix doesn't work: problems installing acrobat on vista

I have a brandnew pc running on 64-bits Vista.
During my installation of Adobe creative suite 3 Web Premium, I got the error message that adobepdf.dll was missing. I found the technote http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb401731. In it it said tot install a MS hotfix available at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/930627. At first it seemed that this didn't work, because I got a strange error, but extensive research with MS learned that it meant: it's already installed on your computer. So far so good.
According to step 3, I downloaded Version 8.1, Adobe Acrobat 8 licensing service update (Windows Vista only), guessing that this is the right one. I extracted the files onto my desktop, but when trying to execute InstAS.exe, very little seems to happen. I very quickly see some sort of Dos-screen opening and closing. It goes to fast to even read what's on it.
By the way: I tried downloading a file with the exact same name from the internet and put it in the map that the repair installer looks for it, but that didn't solve the problem...
Since Adobe doesn't support 64, I'm left with an unusable product (that I did pay for and would really like to use). They advised me to try the forum. So please, can anyone help me? Thanks in advance for your trouble...

CS6 serial doesn't work to install Acrobat X Pro.

I've created a deployment of Acrobat X Pro with the Adobe Customization Wizard X. This is because AAMEE doesn't support Acrobat. Adobe support tells me I need to use my CS6 serial but no matter what I try my CS6 key won't work. A dedicated, standalone key for Acrobat X Pro works, but not my CS6 key. Has anyone else experienced this? Adobe phone support was no help. Thanks!

Hi
A CS6 serial number will NOT work with the Acrobat Customization Wizard. You were misinformed by Adobe support (If you can PM me a case number, I can ensure that this training need gets addressed with the agent/team in question). Only Acrobat serial numbers will be accepted by the Customization Wizard.
The usual way to use a CS6 serial number in conjunction with an Acrobat deployment is to package your CS6 suite using AAMEE 3.0, deploy Acrobat (as so-called Execeptions payload) using the commands documented in the AAMEE deployment guide, followed by a deployment of the Suite package.
This process is documented in the Enterprise Deployment Guide (linked here from the forums, and available at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/creativesuite/enterprisedeployment.html).
Kind regards

Problems installing Acrobat X as part of CS6 upgrade

After upgrading to CS6 from CS5, my Acrobat Pro 9 stopped working - it would say that there is an error and shut down, each time I tried to open it. I have already tried uninstalling and reinstalling both Acrobat 9 and the CS6 upgrade. Latest reinstallation of the CS6, installed everything except Acrobat X, which comes with the package...
Any ideas?

Still not working. I continue to get the error message that “Certain elements of or these products are not able to be installed” (translated from French). In the following error log, it says (amongst other things) :
ERROR: Error 1310.Error writing to file: C:\Config.Msi\3a1e5a.rbf. Verify that you have access to that directory.
ERROR: Install MSI payload failed with error: 1603 - Erreur irrécupérable lors de l’installation.
MSI Error message: Error 1310.Error writing to file: C:\Config.Msi\3a1e5a.rbf. Verify that you have access to that directory.
ERROR: DW050: The following payload errors were found during install:
ERROR: DW050: - Acrobat Professional: Install failed
When I was uninstalling previous versions of Acrobat and Reader, it had warned that it couldn’t access the file C:\Config.Msi\3a1e5a.rbf. I did try running the Acrobat Cleaner Tool as you recommended, twice, restarting each time but still no luck.
Any other suggestions?

My iPhoto doesn't work after installing lion?

My Iphoto doesn't work after installing lion.
it suggest that I have to instal iphoto again.
where can I find this

If it suggests that you install iPhoto again, install iPhoto again. In your Macs Box that it came in there should be 2 Discs, one is an Applications CD (You need this one) And another is the Mac OS X.
Insert your Applications CD and hold C while the computer is starting up, then you will be walked through the installation of Applications.

Problem installing on Windows Vista?

I have the package for adobe photoshop elements 9 and premier pro 9 and can't get photoshop to install. When I place the disc in my computer auto start comes up with options for viewing pictures in different programs but there isn't anything saying "install" or "run" the software. I then went into explorer to view the folders in the disc but i still can't get the installation process to start. Does it matter that I installed premier before photoshop? I don't think It''s a space issue because I should have enough. Help would be much appreciated thanks.

Sorry for the late reply, and thank you for posting your advice so quickly. However, I tried looking for "setup.exe" or something similar but can't seem to find one at all, and I searched through all the folders. Is it possible there is something wrong with the disc? Or should I download a trial version online and use the code on the back of my package to access the full product instead?

Try looking inside the "Adobe Photoshop Elements 9" folder and double click on Setup.exe to launch the install.

TS3694 The program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer, try reinstalling the program to fix this program. It still doesn't work, problem began when updating iTunes. Help

I have attempted to resolve this program by verious recommendation such as downloading Microsoft Visual C++, but nothing works. Program begin with updating iTunes.
I have a PC Window 7, 64bit,,
iTunes doesn't work, Help

turingtest includes most of what I experienced as a Solution.
The Apple Sppt guy did NOT Uninstall iCloud with my issue BUT After Uninstalling Apps and Manual Deletes in Program Files (x86) as instructed the iTunes Re-Install produced a pop-up at the end about Reggistry Settings for Import and CD Burning are Missing ... Re-Install iTunes. (saw another Thread on this Reg issue)
2nd call to Apple netted that Uninstalling Quicktime Fixed that Registry issue most every time.
IF you do all of this over you may try Uninstall of Quicktime to be safe and check if more Manual Deletes are requ'd after the QT Uninstall is run..

Internal Microphone doesn't work (after installing Boot Camp 3.1)

I have installed Boot Camp 3.1, and after this installation, my internal mic doesn't work (ONLY IN WINDOWS XP).
I tried to fix the problem with several manners (hardware test in CONTROL PANEL / SOUND .../ VOICE TAB / VOICE RECORDING; reinstalling drivers and hardware etc), but I can't get success (for example, the test results: SORRY, NO SOUND IN MIC...).
On the other hand, when I boot as Mac (Snow Leopard), I can use the mic (in skype, for example), without problem.
I note that ear plug (connector in the back of the iMac) doesn't work too.
Somebody can help me in this case ?
Regards

i got a macbook pro, 2 weeks ago, the 2.53Ghz unibody aluminium, the desing of this mac is great even tough the system specs are really low for the price actually, im happy with it(the hardware)...
The only reason i got this is cause apple claims to support windows, i like Mac OS, but i work on windows i need it... if theres no windows capability in mac i wouldnt ever buy one, so this issue is really bothering me A LOT. my impresions about apple are changing after seing this topic filled with questions and not a single moderator answer, go and check a logitech forum and see how they take care about user problems.

Problems installing Acrobat 9I

I am having trouble installing Acrobat 9, I originally installed it as part of the Creative Suite 4 (Design Premium), acrobat installed okay as part of the suite, but I couldn't create pdf's from word or safari.
I uninstalled acrobat 9, the rest of the suite remains and works perfectly, now when I try to reinstall acrobat 9 my mac sits at the installation screen! Do I need to uninstall the complete suite?
My MBP is only a week old and has very little else on it yet!
Any help will be appreciated.

I have the same problem. I recently upgraded from CS2 (Premium) to CS4 (Standard) and, although I needed help from Adobe Tech Support, I installed the suite successfully. However, Acrobat Pro 9 did not update like the other applications so I called in for more help. That was a bust and, as a matter of fact, after removing some components from the Acrobat.app folder as directed, Acrobat wouldn't even open any more. Consequently, I trashed it and started over.
Unfortunately, now I have the same problem the first user has. Installations proceeds normally until the "Preparing to Install..." screen at which it just stops. It doesn't freeze up or anything, it just dies.
Sure hope somebody can offer a solution.
Thanks in advance.

Receipts Fix Doesn't Work!

Hi,
there is a fix out there to solve the camera recognition issues, which involves deleting the old quicktime recepits and FCP preferences. Some even re-install the software.
Well, I did all that, and it doesn't work for me.
See, I'm running FCP 4.5 (HD) on my newly Tiger'ed Powerbook G4, and I've never been able to log and capture any footage. I have VTR control over the camera, but can't preview my footage from FCP, much less do a batch import or a "capture now." This is with the same Sony VX 2000 that I have been shooting and editing with, no problems, in OS < 10.3.9.
How come there are so many divergent schools of underground thought on how to fix this? Where is the official step-by-step protocol, tailored to each different version of FCP prior to version 5? Am I expected to upgrade in the face of my software spontaneously and prematurely shutting down?
To end my rant, if there's anyone else out there with similar specs and similar problems as me, and managed to somehow solve them by doing something different than simply deleting receipts and preferences, or reinstalling it all, which I've tried, please do let me know. If you haven't found a solution, give a shout out anyway, if there's enough of us we'll do a petition or a rally, or SOMEthing.
If anyone out there belongs to the same breed of corageous independent filmmaking freelancers as I do, you know how much this is hurting.
Thanks,
M.

oh yeah - np.
That's with dv material. Anything else and yeah you may not be all that happy.
Any of the pb's for the last 5 years have been fine with dv, ok not a lot of fun at times, I'll admit - so long as you have a fw card bus you're good to go, and maybe that's where your friend fell over.
The 1.67 I've got is about 60% faster at some things than my dual 533 - rough stab in the dark and I'll say overall around 40% faster.
Factor in the 128 mb graphics card for RT performance and this current pb is great, can't complain.
Of course you always want more speed - so, "C'mon, Steve - where are they ?"

Help! I've spent hours researching this and can't find a solution...
I upgraded 3 Intel Macs in the house to Snow Leopard last weekend. All went differently...but all were successful. I found that the connection to my HP Officejet 7410 (connected wirelessly to 802.11g Airport Express (AEX) network) was "broken". Deleted then "re-intalled". Documents could now be printed. I then found out scan function was "broken". Figured out how to scan with new Snow Leopard "baked-in" driver and Scan tab...different, but it worked.
Then, tonight, on the eve of my birthday, I was given the green light to purchase an Airport Extreme 802.11n (dual-band) base station (AEBS). I set it up and got 2.5X speed on the two 802.11n laptops in the household. Glorious! Then I went to work to ensure print and scan functions were still operational. Tried to re-connect HP OJ 7410 to wireless network...when it found the network it asked for the "WEP" key (on previous AEX network I was secured utilizing WPA2/Personal)...I entered the WPA2/Personal password (same as previous network) and got the error message "Key must be 5 or 13 characters OR 10 or 26 length with 0-9 and A-F (hex)". So I turned off the wireless radio and instead plugged the 7410 into the AEBS via USB. Deleted the previous queue and re-installed. Found the printer no problem but now without the Scan tab or function anywhere...despite following all the recommendations found both on the HP site and here in the Apple Forums. I print fine. Can't for the life of me figure out what the problem with the now lost again Scan function is.
Only strangeness I can think of is the following: When setting up the network(s), I had the option of naming the 5 ghz band something different. I set mine up with the same name of the 2.4 ghz network with 5ghz in parenthesis (i.e. BobbyG and BobbyG (5 Ghz)).
Sorry for the long post but we need the scan function in the house for my wife's teaching purposes. Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated.
Very Respectfully,
Bobby G.

Don't want to use new Numbers, but 'get info' fix doesn't work

Hi All,
I made the mistake of installing the new Numbers a month or two ago. I don't want to use the new Numbers because I need to work on the same documents on older machines that won't work with the new Numbers. On my machines with both versions of Numbers, I want to be able to just double-click on the documents and open with the older version. The usual fix is to use get info on a document, select the app I want to use for this type of document and then hit 'change all' for that type of doc. Well that's the theory at least. I've found that this setting doesn't stick in this case. (I've never seen this not work). It still opens with the new Numbers.
I've tried removing Numbers, but Software Update keeps nagging that there is an update available jfor Numbers, and wants to reinstall it. They 'dumbed down' Software Update so that you can't remove updates you don't want to be bothered by. (I hate it that Apple continually removes features, then adds them back in a year or two!) So I'm stuck.
Any one else have this happen? Any fixes?
Thanks!

Using Get Info to change all documents to open with Pages 4.3 doesn't work. The Mac OS will always default to the newest installed version & has for as long as I can remember. It will work on individual files, but that could be a lot of files to reset.
This is what worked for me. After I installed the new iWork updates I created a folder on an external drive & named it "Applications." I then moved the new iWork apps to this folder & renamed the applications Keynote 6, Pages 5 & Numbers 3. I have icons for two versions of Pages & Numbers (I rarely use Keynote) in my Dock. Even with two versions of Pages & Numbers running, double-clicking an existing file opens in Pages 4.3 or Numbers 2.3. This should also keep the Mac App Store from nagging you to update.
Since the last update I've used the solution Peter Breis posted (4th post in that thread) in iWork Tips 'n' Tricks with a little "tweak."
Making Numbers '09 the default whilst keeping Pages 5
1. Move any new iWork apps in another clearly labelled folder (I created a new folder in Applications & named it iWork 13)
2. Menu > Apple > System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy > drag the above folder into the list
2) Move the new iWork folder into the trash (temporarily)
3) Select any Numbers file in Finder > Menu > Info (cmd+i) > Open with: > Pages '09 > Change all
4) Re the new iWork folder from the trash (right-click > Put back)
Pages 5 should no longer appear as a default App, and you won't have to keep a copy in a separate drive or dmg.
IMPORTANT: Make a note of where and how Pages was installed for the next App Store update and temporarily move it back there before putting it away again in the folder concealed from Spotlight.

External Combo Drive doesn't work after installing Snow Leopard

This Mini was bought used with a defective combo drive. I purchased a "No-Brand" external Combo Drive (USB connected and powered) off eBay. Everything worked fine under Leopard. I used the external drive to install Snow leopard but could not eject the DVD at the completion of the installation process. I manually ejected the DVD and discovered the external drive now doesn't work with either DVD's or CD"s.
Any ideas what the problem is?
Ken

Mark this up to "cockpit' trouble on my part. The external combo drive now works.

Web Interface doesn't work after installing 11g

A couple days ago I decided to install Oracle 11g (after already having 10g Express Edition), after successfully installing 11g, I tried to access 10g EE using http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/apex, and it doesn't work anymore. I tried using a java program with Netbeans that connects to my 10g Database and there's connection with no problems and I can upload/download data with no problems, I just can't access the web interface.
Thanks in advance.

Launchpad Gestures doesn't work after install Lion

Hey people, I have this problem, after install Lion all gestures works properly, but Launchpad and Show desktop doesn't work even with the option in the Trackpad enabled.
Anybody can help me please.
Kind regards.

Here are my best suggestions for your camera problem:
• If Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
   suggestions do not help you, continue with the following.
• Use Disk Utility to repair permissions and then
   download and apply the 10.7.2 Combo Update:
     http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1459
• Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
   that completes the Combo update.
The Combo version of updates can sometimes correct
strange problems like yours.
For camera problems in web video, you may need to update to the current version of Flash: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
If you need to update Flash, follow Adobe's instructions and uninstall your old Flash before installing the new one: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/908/cpsid_90893.html
