Having trouble installing Acrobat X trial on windows

I can't install  the trial version of Adobe Acrobat X Professional for Windows. I've downloaded the product but I'm getting a message box response stating Adobe Reader could not open "Hairston Acrobat Download" because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged.

What is this Hairston Acrobat Download which you are trying to use?  If you are looking for the trial of Acrobat X Professional you can locate it at https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=acrobat_pro&loc=en.  Also as part of the install process your copy of Adobe Reader will be removed.

    Hi Pat
    Thanks for your email.  I was able to download and install this morning without any problems.  I uninstalled the old version yesterday and restarted my computer but still got errors.  However when I turned off last night, windows ran updates and that must of fixed the problem.  I also got rid of firefox and put of google chrome.  All to use Australia Posts click and send which wouldn't work because of an error with the plugin.  Thanks for your very quick reply, I appreciate your help.  Have a great day.  Best Regards Judy (moo2u2)

  • Having trouble installing PS CS5 Extended in Windows 8.1

    Greetings:
    I installed this product previously on another computer that ran Windows 7.  I had issues at the time and was able to resolve them, one of which was a bad serial number.  I just purchased a laptop with Windows 8.1 and am unable to install this product.  Here is what I did:
    - Disabled Virus program and shut down all other programs
    - Started the installation from a CD
    - Went through the normal process, serial number, log in info, etc.
    - I selected only the CS5 64 bit version and the region (US),
    - After about 20 seconds, a pop up appeared and it asked me to install the installation disc.  I did so and was not able to move the installation process forward.
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you in advance for your help.
    Gary

    Hello Mylenium:
    I did as you suggested and it worked much better.  Very smooth process.
    Thank you for your suggestion.
    I do have another problem, this time with the serial number and I think I
    may have to call Adobe on this one.
    I purchased this license from someone on eBay.  He assured me the license
    number was good.  The CD came in a case with the original serial number
    printed on the cover.  When I installed CS5 on my other computer, I was
    having similar troubles and spoke to one of the support people.  He gave me
    another license number that worked.  I have since uninstalled CS5 and did
    not deactivate the license.  Perhaps that is the problem.
    Your thoughts would be appreciated.
    Thank you again for your help.
    Best Regards,

  • I'm having trouble installing iCloud 4 on a window 8.1 laptop

    I have been successfully using iCloud 3 on my Windows 8.1 laptop. When I try to install iCloud version 4 it stops due to errors. Is anyone else having this issue?

    I am also having the same problem on a Windows 8.1 desktop computer.
    When I tried to install iCloud for Windows version 4.0 using the Apple Software Update tool, I got the error message "Errors occurred while installing the updates. If the problem persists, choose Tools > Download Only and try installing manually."
    When I tried the manual install by running iCloud64.msi from the downloads folder, the install failed with a different error:
    "There is a problem with the Windows Installer package.  A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."
    Next, I ran iCloud64.msi with administrator privileges from the command line with the error logging option:  iCloud64.msi /le errs.txt
    This is the contents of the resulting error log file:
    === Logging started: 9/21/2014  9:04:17 ===
    Error 1722. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.  Action RuniCloudUpgrade, location: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Internet Services\, command: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Internet Services\iCloud.exe /upgrade
    === Logging stopped: 9/21/2014  9:04:34 ===
    I tried running the command iCloud.exe /upgrade, as suggested in the error log, but this command did not seem to have any effect.  Another iCloud install attempt failed with the same errors.
    I have iTunes version 11.4.0.18 on my computer. Previously, I had been using iCloud control Panel version 3.1 on my computer without problems.

  • HT1926 I am having trouble installing 64-bit iTunes on Windows 7 64-bit.

    Initially the program installed except for the Apple Mobile Device service and SOftware Updater service. Tried a complete uninstall and reinstall. Now, it aborts in mid-install. Seems to be related to permisions. Suggestions?

  • Having problems installing Acrobat X Pro on Windows 7.

    When the installation is about to end, I get the following:
    Has anyone experienced this issue?
    I would appreciate your feedback. Thanks.

    Hi LosBashBrothers,
    To investigate about this issue, installation logs help in a great way. Can you please share the installation log for this session ?
    To create installation logs, enable Windows Installer logging yourself. Open the registry with Regedit.exe and create the following path and keys:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer
    Reg_SZ: Logging
    Value: voicewarmupx

  • I' am having trouble installing a CD for school. Message reads "_ISDEL.EXE can not be extracted with this program"...how can i install .exe files??

    how can i open/install .exe files? i' am having trouble installing this CD for school

    Run Windows or find a Mac version of the software or buy a Windows computer.
    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
    Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows 7 or Windows 8.  Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
    Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows.  The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
    VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.  It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
    Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. A more recent comparison of Parallels, VM Fusion, and Virtual Box is found at Virtualization Benchmarks- Parallels 10 vs. Fusion 7 vs. VirtualBox. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard and later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

  • Having trouble installing ProIX on new Windows 8 machine after XP crash.  Get almost ll of the way through and get an error box ... contact system support.  Only way out is to abort and then it un-installs.  Wondering if a licensing max issue since we did

    having trouble installing ProIX on new Windows 8 machine after XP crash.  Get almost ll of the way through and get an error box ... contact system support.  Only way out is to abort and then it un-installs.  Wondering if a licensing max issue since we didn't get an opportunity to uninstall off of crashed machine?

    Hey robr72339266,
    With a single user license, you can install Acrobat on maximum two computers, say, your laptop at work and desktop at office.
    But, you cannot use Acrobat on both the machines simultaneously.
    You will first need to deactivate Acrobat from the old machine, then install and activate the software on the new OS with the same serial key.
    Please Contact | Adobe to seek help on the same.
    Regards,
    Anubha

  • Having trouble installing Adobe Reader 8, know it's outdated, job requires it. System is Windows 7

    having trouble installing Adobe Reader 8, know it's outdated, job requires it. System is Windows 7 Home Premium. Thank you.

    You may see if there are solutions in this old thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3063830
    Although that combination isn't supported, many people have made it work.
    Why would a job require Reader 8? All older files are compatible with newer versions. Or at least they should be.
