Downloaded RH 9 trial version and now Acrobat has disappeared

Hi all,
I have had Adobe Acrobat installed for years and use it all the time.  Have also had RH X5 installed on the same PC all along.  I downloaded the trial version of RH 9  and now find that all the icons for PDFs have changed to the icon you see when there's no application associated to the file.  And if I try to open a PDF I get a message telling me the file can't be opened unless I have the application installed.  And when I look in my program files in Windows Explorer, there is not longer an Acrobat folder.  Is it possible that the download of RH 9 somehow wiped out my Acrobat?  I have the Acrobat CD so could reinstall, but am hesitant until I understand what the problem might be.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Diane

I think you are going to need to take this one up with Adobe.
As I said much earlier in the thread, my thinking was that RoboHelp installed it's own lite version and that had somehow clobbered the full version. That said, it is not what I would expect, simply a thought as to what might have happened.
Also it is worth noting that this is the only thread I have seen about this problem.
When you installed Rh, did you elect to customise the installation and then deselect the installation of the lite version of Acrobat? If not, may that is what has caused this. I run several machines with Acrobat and installing Rh has never clobbered Acrobat.
Now that you have lost Acrobat I think you will need to also uninstall Rh, reinstall Acrobat and then install Rh as above.
If you need to come back here, knowing the version might help.

    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.

  • HT1923 I downloaded the latest iTunes version and now get the following error message: "This copy of iTunes is corrupted or is not installed correctly. Please re-install iTunes." Can anyone provide suggestions on what I should do next?

    Let's try a repair install of iTunes first.
    Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    Can you launch your iTunes now?

    Hi, my iphoto had a transparent ? mark on it and wouldn't open so I dragged it onto the desk top and now it has disappeared... I cannot find it anywhere in my finder, it seems to be gone, please help!

    You have one and possibly two problems.
    First problem you tried to open the iPhoto library with iTunes and appeared to have set iTunes as the default app for iPhoto Libraries. That isn;t going to work.
    To fix that select the iPhoto library in the Finder and do a File->Get Info. In the middle of the Info window you'll see Open With dropbox. Click on that and select iPhoto, then select the Change All button
    This will get iPhoto back as the default app to open iPhoto Libraries.
    Double click the library now and if nothing else is wrong iPhoto will open the library. If it does do as Michael wrote and go to the Applications folder and drag iPhoto to the dock to remake the shortcut.
    However since you started this thread by saying that the iPhoto shortcut in the dock had a question mark on it it is possible that iPhoto is missing from your Applications folder. If it is post back.
    regards

  • Wiped all my blackberry messenger contacts and now bbm has disappeared

    Well, actually you can speak to a support professional...but only by following your contractually-required support model. All front-line support for BlackBerry devices starts with the mobile service providers, that original places of purchase, or authorized service centers. It varies by region and issue, but you should have received, at your time of purchase (for both the device as well as your services) instructions as to how to seek formal support. If you did not receive such instructions, then shame on the seller, for it was their responsibility to provide that to you.
    Occam's Razor nearly always applies when troubleshooting technology issues!
    If anyone has been helpful to you, please show your appreciation by clicking the button inside of their post. Please click here and read, along with the threads to which it links, for helpful information to guide you as you proceed. I always recommend that you treat your BlackBerry like any other computing device, including using a regular backup schedule...click here for an article with instructions.

  • I installed a trial version and now i cannot use my desktop, licensed lightroom

    Hi,
    After reading that I could have both the desktop software AND the cloud client on the same machine, I installed a trial version of the cloud Lightroom. Now I cannot launch my fully-licensed desktop software! I uninstalled the trial creative cloud software, and now it's broken.
    Help! I have photos to edit!

    If you have used your operating system procedure for uninstalling the application it will not interfere with your Catalog, Preferences and personal files.
    Download the latest version if you have a LR 5 license key, from the link below.
    Product updates
    This should reinstall LR 5.7 and you should be good to go.
    After the installation shut down the computer and reboot.

  • Installed Trial Version and now Dreamweaver is Screwed Up

    I use Dreamweaver to design and update our website, but I
    want others to be able to help maintain it as well, so I installed
    the trial version of Contribute to see how it worked before I
    purchased it. Now when I go back to editing with Dreamweaver, I
    have error messages that weren't there before and things that no
    longer work like they did pre-Contribute. For example: everytime I
    open a page, I get an error...
    "The following translators were not loaded due to errors:
    ASP.NET.htm has configuration information that is invalid. Date.htm
    has configuration information that is invalid. JSP.htm ASP.NET.htm
    has configuration information that is invalid. Spry.htm ASP.NET.htm
    has configuration information that is invalid. XSLT.htm ASP.NET.htm
    has configuration information that is invalid."
    Also, the insert email link button gives me an error now:
    "While executing onLoad in E-Mail Link.htm, the following
    JavaScript error(s) occurred: In file E-Main Link: ReferenceError:
    initUI is not defined"
    Also, when I hit Command + S to save an html page, then close
    it, it asks me do I want to save changes.
    There are so many quirks now that I either need to know how
    to UNDO everything to get it back to the way it was before
    installing Contribute. Or how to fix the issues that I am having.
    PLEASE HELP!!!

    Hi Neil,
    I was having the same issue this am. This solution worked for
    me:

    I recreated the dreamweaver user configuration folder
    following the instructions in the above link.
    Hope it works for you....

  • I downloaded the 5.o version and now firefox wont come up at all

    i downloaded the 5.o version of firefox on 7/19. and now that I have firefox will not pop up at all. I have tried uninstalling it and installing it again with no luck. All of my plug ins are up to date. so I am not sure what is going on???

    See section 5 of TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows.
    If that doesn't help it may pay to tear down and reinstall iTunes in the following manner...
    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • Cancelled import and now everything has disappeared!

    When I tried opening iTunes today I mistakenly cancelled an import function - don't know why iTunes was doing this, as it usually doesn't. Anyway, now I have my iTunes with my music, but the tv shows I've bought have disappeared and my playlists have disappeared and I can't seem to create any new ones.
    How can I restore my iTunes to the status it had yesterday morning so that I can get my playlists and tv shows back - plus the tv show that was automatically downloaded today?
    Please help!

    Your user folder has been renamed. It's still there. Search this forum and you'll see how to address the problem.

  • I downloaded the latest Firefox version and now missing the Web selection box for clicking on maps, images, video, shopping more ...how to restore, please.

    Also missing the word Firefox in white letters with dark blue rectangular bar with the Firefox logo on the right end on this bar. Downloaded the latest version of Firefox on 6/1/11

    Firefox 4 uses a new build-in home page named <b>about:home</b> with a Google search bar on it.
    That about:home page only shows some snippets and has a button to restore the previous session if applicable.
    * If you want a home page with extras then set another page as the home page like www.google.com or www.google.com/firefox as used in Firefox 3 versions.

  • I uninstalled the trial version - and now when I try to print from Reader it goes to a .prn file?

    Even though the printer is selected in the print screen - Adobe always save to a .prn file - which I am then unable to print?

    You have enabled print to file in your printer driver. Nothing to do with Reader at all.
