    Hi ivank25654647,
    I have checked the serial number you have provided and it looks like a Volume Serial number to me. There are mainly two reasons why this error might pop up :
    1) You are using the installer for a Retail product and using the volume serial number as that combination do not work.
    2) You have a stand alone installer for Acrobat and not a suite installer.
    I would request you to kindly navigate back to the licensing website and go to Licenses>Downloads and search for the download link for the Creative Suite 5 and then download Acrobat again. This should resolve the concern that you have.
    Cheers,

  • Error installing Flash with windows 2k sp4

    IE6 SP1, I was able to install Acrobat Reader, but I can not
    install Flash or Shockwave
    both fail in the same place. I have a screen shot showing the

    Could not load the DLL library
    C:\WINNT\System32\Kernel32.dll
    (GetSystemWow64DirectoryA) The specified
    procedure could not be found.
    I'm purplexed ... why would a system subroutine
    be missing from the windows kernel?
    Am I being given the wrong version of
    flash/shockwave for Win2k?
    What should I look to download?
    Thanks

  • Error installing Acrobat 9 Prof on Win7  64-bit

    I bought a new HP laptop and loaded the other components of Creative Suite 4 Design Premium (Win 7  64 bit) with no issues.
    I then tried to install Acrobat 9 Professional (several times) and keep getting error messages saying that one or more components dd not load correctly.
    My antivirus was turned off and I rebooted after the first failed attempt. The 2nd attempt had the same results.
    I've seen others with the same issue while trying to load Acrobat 9 Prof.
    What is the "fix" to get this on my new laptop?
    Thanks

    Bill@VT I believe you are referring to the need for the CS applications to provide their licensing information so that Acrobat can be licensed as well.  This needs to occur before Acrobat is launched for the first time but does not affect the install order.
    Mike Sz01 were the remaining applications for CS4 able to be installed successfully?  You can review the installation logs for error messages by following the steps listed in Troubleshoot installation with install logs | CS3, CS4 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-installation-install-logs-cs3.html.

  • 101 error installing acrobat

    Why don i get error 101 when installing acrobat pro XI WNDOWS 7?

    Hi rrrrprrrr,
    It sounds like there may not be enough room on your hard disk to extract the installation files. Please see solution 2 in Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant.

  • Error installing Acrobat v8

    I have Acrobat v5 on my 8-year old laptop. I started to have difficulty reading the latest pdf files. But because of its age, I didn't try to put the latest Acrobat v10 on it. Instead I tried v8 with an installer downloaded couple of years ago. But when I install it, I got an error message when the installer access the "C:\Documents & Settings\my name\Local Settings\Temp\Adobe Reader 8.0\setup.exe". The message said "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." I am using an administrator account "my name" when installing. And I have checked the folder's authority that "my name" has full control. Looks like to me it is a Windows problem, but I don't know how to fix it. Please help.

    Sometimes in the past you had to be logged in as the "administrator," not just an admin account. That may be the issue. Also be sure anti-virus is disabled for the install. You did not mention your OS. I assume you have at least XP.
