Help installing acrobat 8

I had acrobat writer 5.0 and purchased acrobat 8 standard. So I uninstalled 5.0, rebooted, and tried to install 8.0, but got this message:
[[Setup has detected that you already have a more functional product installed. Setup will now terminate.]]
Please advise.

  • Need help installing acrobat on Mac

    I just bought Acrobat Pro.
    When I tried to download it to install on my Mac, it stopped at 42% and it won't let me resume... Any ideas?

    need a little more detail:
    System Used
    whether downloaded copy (meaning purchased direct from Adobe and then used download feature), or bought a pacakaged copy.
    How much Hard drive space left on computer.
    how much needed for install.
    Did you repair permissions on computer, before starting.

  • Help installing on tablet

    I need help installing acrobat reader and flash on my galaxy 2 tablet.

    Do you have Rescue & Recovery installed on the old drive?  Use that to create a set of Factory Recovery Media.  Install the new drive and use the burned media to install Vista to that.  Boot the Win 7 upgrade DVD and do a custom/clean install.
    [edit] Once you have Win 7 installed, dld and install ThinkVantage System Update for Win 7 and let it pull down the Lenovo drivers and apps.  You can select the ones you want to install.
    That's how I did it w/Vista -> Win 7 Pro 64 on my T400.  You can do a clean install from upgrade media as long as the HD has a previous version of Windows on it.  An actual "in-place" upgrade just makes a mess, IMNSHO.
    There may be other ways to do this, but you really ought to burn an OEM recovery media set of Vista regardless.  Nice to have if you ever want to revert to Vista.  Not that anyone would, but you might want to restore the machine to OEM stock and give it to your brother-in-law some day

  • Can someone help me install Acrobat 8 Pro on MAC 10.9.4?

    Can someone help me install Acrobat 8 Pro on MAC 10.9.4?

    I don't think this version of Acrobat is compatible with your OS (seeing as the minimum requirement for Acrobat 9 is Mac OS X v. 10.4.11 or 10.5)...
    In other words, time to upgrade to Acrobat XI.

  • How can I use pdf pack to convert cubase documents  (music scores)  into pdfs? I am looking for the former possibility to install acrobat like a printer but i don't have this option with "pdf pack". Can you help?

    How can I use pdf pack to convert cubase documents  (music scores)  into pdfs? I am looking for the former possibility to install acrobat like a printer but i don't have this option with "pdf pack". Can you help?

    Hi mariab,
    What format are those music scores (I'm not familiar with cubase documents). But, it may be that Adobe PDF Pack doesn't support that format. In that case, Acrobat is the way to go. You can then print your files to PDF as you'd like. You're welcome to try Acrobat for free for 30 days to see whether it's going to work for you. If you decide it is, and you'd like to use it going forward, you could convert your PDF Pack subscription into an Acrobat subscription.
    Best,
    Sara

    I installed acrobat pro on my computer, and now I am unable to download items because I get a message that I need to open acrobat for the user agreement. opening acrobat pro does not help. What do i do?

    I have not contacted Adobe. I am using acrobat pro CC, and haven't noticed any problem with the software itself. The only problem I have had so far is when I try to download.

  • Installed Acrobat XI Standard on windows 8.1, see it in my download folder but it will not run?  Help?

    Installed Acrobat XI Standard on windows 8.1, see it in my download folder but it will not run?  Help?

    Also, once you successfully install, please backup the install file to a separate HD and/or CD. I agree that your comment is not clear. You say you installed it, but it is simply in the download folder. Did you run the install file that you downloaded? The download does not install the program, but the install is an extra step.

  • HELP!  when installing Acrobat X Pro, the checkbox says "OS REQUIREMENTS NOT MET.?"

    HELP!  when installing Acrobat X Pro, the checkbox says "OS REQUIREMENTS NOT MET. CURRENT OS: WINDOWS VISTA SP0 64 BIT." SERVICE PACK 2 RECOMMENDED." 
    Then after install, it says fatal error 1603 --and im still stuck with adobe acrobat 9.

    mylenium,
    sorry.
    the issue is i run windows 7, but acrobat x thinks im on windows vista for some reason.
    the install goes all the way thru --and then gives the fatal error 1603.
    indd, illustrator and photoishop are on without issue....
    maybe there is a patch i need to try?

  • Please Help:  Lost Acrobat 8 Organizer Collection Folders when installing Acrobat 9

    I guess it should have been obvious...but after installing Acrobat 9 Pro...from version 8 Pro...all of my Organizer collections are not there at all....gone. (I have the old \organizer70 folder on a backup)
    When looking under: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Adobe\Acrobat\9.0....There is a FILE called: Organizer90. (no directory, like in 8.1)
    Is there ANY way to import or convert acrobat 8 Organizer collections to acrobat 9???? - or any other way to restore my organizer collection folders? - I have a few hundred of them...and I can't afford to start over....I'm desperate! :)
    This (conversion) should have been obvious when upgrading. I even tried copying the directory from 8 into the same subdirectory as 9...but no luck.
    If someone knows...PLEASE let me know....I even tried a repair install to no avail.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for answering.... :)
    This is unbelieveable.....it's like they just ignored folks who love the organizer.
    That's really what makes it worth it to me.
    Ok...
    Is there anyway to copy the History file(s)...from Acrobat 8 to 9?
    I figure....I clear the history in 8....then open up a collection folder's multiple files at one time....you know, to establish a new history of files for this day....on another PC....then copy that file to my PC...and put it in Acrobat 9's place. Hoping that Acrobat 9 will open the history files...which I can then save as a new collection in the Organizer...and rename the folder the same as I had it named in Acrobat 8.
    If you can tell me how to copy the history file from 8 to 9...I'd appreciate it....
    Hehe...sorry to sound so desperate...but I am... :)......I have a few hundred folders...and that's the only way...by copying the history and making new collection folders...that I can think of.
    Thanks Again,
    Rick...
