How do I get a copy of Acrobat with my CS5 Master Collection???

I activated my Adobe CS5 Master Collection (running on Snow Leopard) with a serial number purchased from CDW and everything went smoothly, but after a few days of using the core products I typically use I noticed Acrobat was not included in the installed software.
Now, Adobe lists Acrobat PRO as an included product in the Master Collection and rightfully so since it contans just about every product they make.
When I emailed Adobe about this but the only response I got was some  pre-formatted auto-response probably sent to me from the help desk in  India or something. The auto-response said absolutely nothing about how to obtain a copy for the Mac, and just had a link taking me to the Acrobat home page, which basically says there is no trial version of Acrobat for Mac available for download.
I gave up on it since I do not use Acrobat very much but now I am in a situation where I do need to have Acrobat Pro to finish a job and I cannot figure out how to get a copy installed with the Master Collection.
There was no disclaimer indicating that you would not be able to get a copy of Acrobat when I purchased the downloadable version vs. buying a boxed DVD set, so I am expecting there must be a way.
Adobe's help has been pretty much useless when I emailed them, and I cannot find anyone with the same problem on Google or in the Adobe forums, so is there someone out there who can give me the answer or help me?
If I have to purchase a seperate copy of Acrobat so be it, but since it is supposed to be included with the Master Suite that would be kind of stupid if I have to purchase a copy of Acrobat seperately.
Thanks to anyone who can point me in the right direction!!!

This is just getting beyond ridiculous...
AND I can see from several forum threads I am not alone in this issue.
Adobe, you absolutely SUCK for making it so difficult to install this software. I am normally a fan of Adobe products, but now that you guys have bought out all your competiton you are getting lazy and stupid.
This is the most ridiculous crap I've ever seen when trying to install a product I PURCHASED!!!!!!!
So, after over another week (I have been trying to find a way to install Acrobat with my purchased copy of the Master Suite for MONTHS)...  My IT guy finally gets me the installer DMG for Acrobat and now I cannot install it with my master collection because the serial numbers are not the same?
I never got a god damn serial number for Acrobat Pro when purchasing the master collection.
Asking Adobe for help is totally worthless and not even worth taking the time to do so because all they give you is some BS pre-recorded response that doesn't help you with JACK...
It has been a long time since I've had a problem installing a piece of software I PURCHASED.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU SERIOUSLY SUCK ADOBE ON THIS ONE!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Acrobat Pro 9 Extended not available for CS5 Master Collection

    Hello Forum Folks:
    I have a volume license account with 5 CS5 Master Collections.
    As part of the CS5 MC suite Acrobat 9 Pro is included.
    I was told by a sales rep that Acrobat 9 Pro Extended cannot be purchased as an upgrade from a suite product.
    If I choose to purchase Acrobat 9 Pro Extended it would be as a stand alone product license at full price for all five licenses.
    MY DILEMMA:
    I only need one of the features that Acrobat 9 Pro Extended offers that's not included in the Pro version.
    If I purchase 5 stand alone copies of Acrobat 9 Pro Extended, I will have 5 additonal licenses of Acrobat
    outside of my 5 CS5 Master Collection licenses to keep up with.
    So in effect I'll have 10 licenses of 2 different versions of Acrobat 9 Pro and Extended to upgrade
    sometime in the future in order to keep all uniform and in sync.
    This is not an efficient nor economical way to stay current with Adobe's fine products.
    The Case manager I spoke with did a fine job attempting to assist me but was unable to find an effective solution.
    She recommended that I post on the forum and an Adobe staff member might be able to contact me
    and address my concerns. Case Number: #204262178
    Thank You / Peace

    I respect that you are employed by MicroSoft, but the compatability center is not always accurate.  It indicated that Adobe Pro 8 was compatabile for both 32 bit and 63 bit - but it is not.  I have upgraded to Adobe Pro 9 Extended because Adobe says that this is compatable with 64 bit.  The Microsoft compatability center also says that v9 is compatable with 64 bit.  But it is Not.  I have upgraded Adobe to 9.3.0, and it is Still not working.  I now have $700 invested in Adobe software that is non-functional due to W7 64 bit.
    So although users can check the compatability center - as I did prior to purchasing my new laptop - but it may not be accurate.
    And yes, I have updated the compatability center to indicate that the information there is incorrect.
    I have searched/googled everything that I can think of, and still nothing helps.  If you have a suggestion how to make this work, I am listening.

  • I need to Uninstall the preinstalled Windows8, then Reinstall it. How do I get a copy?

    I have an HP Pavilion preinstalled with Windows 8. Updated it to 8.1. 
    My problem is with Outook 2013. It is stuck in "Loading Profile".  Solutions from the Net did not help.  Uninstall and Reinstall Office 2013 did not work either.  I badly need to make Outlook 2013 work in this laptop. 
    My last resort is to to Uninstall and Reinstall Windows. How do I get a copy?
    Please help.
    Thanks.

    Many thanks for the reply Erico.
    I tried Recovery Manager but it says "Recovery Manager is already running".  And when the window was able to pop up, the Recovery Media Creation option is greyed out or disabled.  Is this because my laptop has a Recovery Partition (D?
    The Recovery Drive says "3.24GB free of 23,8GB".  But the folder is empty.  Is it because I tried to delete it before to free up some space?   I just couldn't remember if it was successful.
    My HP Pavilion does not have a CD drive.  I use a USB flash drive to install Office 2013.  I am used to using Office 2013 and Windows 8.1 already.  I want to retain the same settings.
    Been searching the Net for this Outlook 2013  "stuck at Loading Profile" problem.    I've only been using Office 2013 for 2 months.
    I don't remember installing an Indexer program.  How do I find it in my laptop? 
    MY antivirus is Avast.
    Please help.

    A 2008 Mac won't have originally shipped with Lion. You need to install 10.6.8 on the computer, log into the Mac App Store with the Apple ID you used to purchase Mountain Lion, click on the Purchases tab, and download it.

  • How do I get a copy of iMovie 9?

    I reformatted my iMac hard drive with Lion. I restored from the downloaded version of Lion and therefore do not have iMovie on my system. I had upgraded to iMovie 9 but now it's not available in the App Store nor from iTunes. Does anyone know how I might get a copy of iMovie 9?

    Hi
    iMovie 9 can mean different things - What do You need ?
    iMovie History 08, 09 & 11
    NOT AN EVOLUTION FROM Previous versions but a totally new application.
    iMovie 08 (v7) 7.1.4 (aug 2007)
    A new way of storing project and an event library as well
    A totally new product in a pre-release state. Far from a working application.
    Lacks even basal functions
    No Speed-up or down or reverse
    Lot’s of video-formats lacking
    No cont. TimeLine - Bad logic
    No good for interlaced SD-video from miniDV tape aimed to a DVD release.
    (Discarding every second line makes quality as VHS in LP or EP mode = BAD)
    NO - Playback via Camera/FW - and this prevents 100% safety-backups and the use of an extra TV/Monitor as real-time Quality control (as in iM 1 to HD6)
    Color tools got much BETTER - nearly usable - even sort of a copy function
    Direct share to .Mac and YouTube
    More Cameras supported even AVCHD (need of Intel CPU)
    Do not run on G4 or older - G5 minimum
    Need of 1.9 GHz G5-Mac,
    (Can run on 1.8GHz G5 iMac if installed on external boot hard disk and speedier Mac - can’t install directly)
    Mac OS X.4.9 minimum
    QuickTime 7.2 included
    Aimed at - speed editing small video projects to be presented on the Internet - NOT DVDs
    iMovie 09 (v8) 8.0.6 (jan 2009)
    Far better than iMovie 08 but still far from good.
    Pic in pic, green screen but rudimentary
    Image stabilization - fairly good for amateur use
    Speed-up/down and reverse
    Bl/W, Old age etc
    Still - No Continuos TimeLine
    NO - Possibilities to enhance by use of third-part Plug-ins (all investments lost)
    NO - Playback via Camera/FW - and this prevents 100% safety-backups and the use of an extra TV/Monitor as real-time Quality control (as in iM 1 to HD6)
    Aimed at - speed editing small video projects to be presented on the Internet - NOT DVDs
    iMovie 11 (v9) 9.0.x - 9.0.4 (2011 july)
    Will be - Intel Only - Snow Leopard minimum Mac OS X.6.3
    YES:
    Advanced view including a true TimeLine ? Yes but rudimentary (very basic)
    True Story-board - where You even can write and prepare space for lacking material that needs to be obtained or re-shoot. YES
    Better wave-form presentation of audio and audio tools - Rubber-band - Yes
    Trailer creating tool
    ”Faces” as in iPhoto - NO - but this finds if there are people in some video-clips
    Better audio tools. Equalizer and a background audio reducer
    More Camera support e.g. 24fps
    NO
    not 64-bit only
    The Playback to Camera via FW - returns ? NO
    Full Quality to iDVD - NO - still only half - every second line - Questionable - Some indicates it to be able to loss-less Exports - Has to be proven
    Plug-in facility ? - NO
    No free text tool
    Tool to mask an identity e.g.. band over face or un-sharp area. - NO (could be obtained via Plug-ins in iM HD6 and earlier)
    Animation tool - To point on interesting object/player - NO animations refer to a totally different
    thing connected to Story-board and insert of ”dummy animations” while building a movie
    iMovie 13 (v10) 10.0.x - 9.0. (2013 autum)
    If iMovie'09 then You need the iLife'09 boxed CD-version.

  • I lost my Hard disk and had to replace it, how can I get another copy of lion OS, P.S. I bought my macbook pro with preinstalled Lion OS

    I lost my Hard disk and had to replace it with a new one, how can I get another copy of lion OS, as the guy at the serive center installed 10.6 for me.
    P.S. I bought my macbook pro with preinstalled Lion OS

    If you have a way to wipe 10.6.8 off, you can then reboot your machine (with no OS) and since your system came preinstalled with Lion, Internet Recovery should occur which will boot to Apple's servers into a Recovery HD for you to redownload and install Lion.
    To be safe I would first make a clone of the current installation using Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper!. This way you have a way to recover.

  • I backed up my broken ipad, returned it to Apple got it replaced and have now accidently backup'd on my computer over the top of my original Ipad Back up.  how do I get previous copy of my back up??

    i backed up my broken ipad to my computer yesterday, returned it to Apple & got it replaced today and have now accidently backup'd on my computer over the top of my original Ipad Back up from yesterday.  Can anyone advise how do I get previous copy of my back up??

    Look at this knowledge base article on iOS backups to iTunes, note where the backups are kept for your type of computer, Windows or Mac, go to that Library location and see if there are any other files with the same name as the current backup but with a different extension and date/time stamp.  If so you can edit the extension of the current backup and then change the extension of the previous backup so it looks like what was on the current and the do a restore.  iTunes will think the older backup is now new and use it to restore.
    If there are no such files then you over-wrote the backup and it is gone.

    If you are referring to the original system reinstall discs that shipped with every Mac before Lion came out you'll need to contact Apple with the serial # of your Mac and order a replacement set of them.
    Or look on one of the Auction websites or places like iFixit.com for a replacement set.
    If your Mac came new with any of the Download Only versions of OS X, Lion, Mt Lion or Mavericks you don't need any discs to reinstall OS X. You use the Online Internet Recovery system or the built in Recovery HD partition inb the internal hard drive.
    For the built in Recovery HD hold down the Command + r keys at startup. For the Online system hold down the Command + Option/Alt + r keys and keep them held down until you see a globe on the screen.
