Error 1923: Adobe Acrobat Update Service (AdobeARMService) could not be installed

When I try to update my copy of Adobe Reader, I get
Error 1923: Adobe Acrobat Update Service (AdobeARMService) could not be installed.
Verify that you have sufficient privileges to install system services.
This occurs even when I run the install program with "Run as Administrator".
And it occurs for release 11 and the older release 10.
How do I get around this problem?

Kan Service Adobe Acrobat Update Service (Adobe ARM Service) niet installeren. Controleer of voldoende rechten heeft om systeemservices te installeren.

Ik probeer de Reader te installeren, maar krijg steeds deze melding: Kan Service Adobe Acrobat Update Service (Adobe ARM Service) niet installeren. Controleer of voldoende rechten heeft om systeemservices te installeren.
Weet iemand hoe dit op te lossen?

Try the following:
uninstall any current Reader version using http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
download and run the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
Make sure you run both uninstaller & installer when logged in as an Administrator user.

Error:1602 , Adobe Acrobat Updater - Update Failed

My operating system is Windows 7 Professional, 64-bit
After installing Creative Suites 4 and downloading updates, I received an Acrobat Updater notification that Updates were available.
I clicked on the Adobe Acrobat Updater icon and ultimately got the following Error.
Adobe Acrobat Updater, Update Failed, Error:1602
This was solved by going to C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Acrobat\9.2\ARM
I deleted the contents of the ARM folder and then ran "Check for Updates" from Adobe Acrobat. This re-populated the ARM folder with the correct folder and files. Updater ran and I followed the instructions to restart my computer and now it works well.

Hi Kashmore,
Seems like the downloaded file was corrupt that could be because of either network restriction or the anti virus might have blocked it. My suggestion would be to try and download the product either by turning off the Antivirus or try a different network.

Adobe Acrobat Update Service

Hello,
we have a problem with the service "Adobe Acrobat Update" (AdobeARMservice). We observe that sometimes to open a PDF Document needs more time while the service is running, as the same Document needs while the servcie is disabled. for example 30 seconds while service is running to 2 seconds while its disabled.
Did you noticed the same issue, or have a solution?
Notic: It is not the Virusscan-issue (McAfee) this is fixed.
Best regards.

It is highly unlikely that this Service can cause the delay.
Here is what we can do to rule it out-
1. Please enable full verbose MSI logging on this system (Google for the instructions)
2. Enable Adobe Reader Updater verbose logging -
In the registry below set iLogLevel DWORD value to 1.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Adobe ARM\1.0\ARM (if you have 32bit OS)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Adobe\Adobe ARM\1.0\ARM (if you have 64bit OS)
3. Delete AdobeARM.log file from User %Temp% folder
4. Open your PDF document, wait for ~40 seconds
If you confirm the delay in loading PDF, collect AdobeARM.log file and latest file called MSIxxxx.log (if exists) from User Temp folder, Zip them and e-mail to me - please do not post content here - they could be big.

Armsvc.exe (Adobe Acrobat Update Service) breaks Internet Connection

I'm using Adobe Acrobat XI. Whenever the process "armsvc.exe" running, my Internet Connection became "Limited", then after a few seconds, my Internet Modem restart automatically, then "Limited" again then Restart again...
I have to end this process via the Task Manager and my Internet Connection now works normally.
I cannot find out the reason . Please tell me how to fix it. Thanks!

Disable to updates service and simply download the updates from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows. For XI, you can jump right to 07 update.

Adobe Acrobat: updates beyond 6.02 don't install

At some point Adobe Acrobat 6.02 Professional started taking 5 minutes to start. Maybe this was when I updated to Tiger, I'm not sure. It sits there and queries the Adobe website for updates, then tells me it's updated and I have to restart the computer. This is every time I open Acrobat, and it's always 6.02 (it never updates). I've downloaded the 6.03 and 6.04 Acrobat Professional updates from the Adobe website but they won't install, saying they can't find a qualifying version of Acrobat Reader. Yes, the Professional update thinks it's a Reader update. Reader 7.07 won't install, the installer queries the Adobe website which never responds. Is anyone else having these problems? I hate to buy a new copy of Acrobat, it's expensive and 6.02 does everything I need (after it opens!)

Have you tried reinstalling Acrobat Professional 6.0.2?
No.
Have you tried repairing permissions?
I run DisUtility and DiskWarrior regularly, they repair permissions.
Have you tried to use Preview to read documents that Acrobat Professional
won't read?
Acrobat Professional reads everything, Preview works good too. What doesn't work is using Safari for PDFs, or, specifically, the "bigger" button doesn't work so the pages are usually too small to read. I have Preview set as the default application for PDFs. Is there some way to tell Safari not to open PDFs but instead use the default application? I don't see anything in the Safari Preferences to do that.
When you are running the 6.0.3 updater are you just selecting the Acrobat
Professional Folder or the actual Application itself.
I selected the Acrobat 6.02 Professional application.
I see what the problem is. On the Adobe website when you click to download the Acrobat Professional 6.03 updater it instead downloads the Acrobat Reader 6.03 updater. I'll e-mail Adobe about that. Without the 6.03 update I can't update to 6.04.
I still don't see what the problem is installing the 7.07 Reader. I've tried half a dozen times.

Error Message reads: "Adobe Acrobat Updater Certificate failed to install."

I am unable to make any updates to my Adobe programs (including creative suite CS3). Everytime I try, I type in my password, but I always get the same error message: Adobe Acrobat Updater Certificate failed to install.
I believe this is happening because I actually inherited my Adobe programs, including the MacBook Pro the programs are installed on. The owner used to be a relative who, sadly, passed away. I thought I had changed everything to be under my name as the owner, but having never done it before it's possible I missed something? Perhaps my relative's name is still recognized as the owner?
Please help as this is wreaking havoc in many "little" ways...
Thanks.

Had the same problem. Found two updaters on the computer. Go to "applications/utilities/adobe utilities". Threw away the folder "Adobe Updater5". Ran the "Adobe Updater6/Adobe Updater.app". Problem gone.

What's the name of the file you are attempting to open? Is it "ScreenFlow_4.5.2.dmg"? If it is the correct name then the message is correct and you are attempting to open a file with DMG files extension and not one with a PDF file extension. Adobe Reader opens PDF files an not any other file type.

Acrobat v10x CS6 Installation: "Some items could not be installed and then Error 1301

Brand new MacBook Pro Retina 16GB, 512SSD, Mountain Lion.
I successfully installed all apps in CS6 Web and Design Premium EXCEPT... I had a warning on Acrobat install: "Some items could not be installed properly".
However, Acrobat 10.0.0 launches and runs fine. Then, I try to move on and upgrade to 10.1.4 (or even 10.0.1) and no matter whether I uninstall and reinstall, repair disk permissions, talk to Adobe support for four times now and let them try everything, I'm still getting Error 1301 "The update could not be applied because Adobe Acrobat application contents were modified since the original installation. I had them send me a hard copy of the CS6 Suite and reinstalled the entire suite. Again, ALL other apps run and upgrade perfectly EXCEPT Acrobat.
Now, support tells me to use the "Run Repair Acrobat Installation to replace missing files." from this advisory and call them back later (file:///Users/mbp/Desktop/extras/maccomputers/Errors%20and%20freezes%20%7C%20Adobe%20Rea der%20%7C%20Mac%20OS.webarchive).
Here's the latest hitch: There is no such: "Repair Acrobat Installation". I'm thinking they think there is and there isn't.

Hi,
Thanks for the advice. Tried this and does not work. Exact same results. I really wonder if I am the only person with a MacBook Pro Retina with an 512GB SSD running Mountain Lion that has tried to install Acrobat 10.0.0. I think there is some conflict with Mac OS 10.8.2 that is hostile to the installation sequence Adobe created for Acrobat. I fear Adobe would rather I upgrade to Acrobat X1 than spend their time patching this.

My image is a screenshot saved to my desktop.
When the install fails, this is the message I get:

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
