How to install Reader 4.0 on VIsta 64-bit machine

I have an old program that looks for Acrobat Reader 4.0 under the Adobe programs directory in programs folder.
Anyone have any suggestions to install REader 4.0 so my program finds it?
Thanks.
AR40ENG.EXE was bundled on the installation disk I received from teh software company which is now out of business....
My program is looking for Reader file named pdf.ocx.
David Ristau

Well Mike, I appreciate your commennts, however, if I could haul around my old desktop with me and my vista 64 laptop, then problem would be solved.
However, I can't haul the desktop.
And like Linda, I've had a problem installing on XP.
Except, though, I was able to install 4.0 on a Dell laptop with XP pro.
I believe I installed it on the Dell before I installed Acrobat Pro 7.0.
I also believe that since I installed it on the Dell before 7.0, it would explain why I now can't load 4.0 reader on 2 new XP boxes that have Acrobat Pro 7.0 already installed.
Question for Linda: Did you unistall all versions of Acrobat as well as Reader trying to install 4.0?
Thanks for all comments and suggestions. I'll give them all a shot to get the 4.0 on an XP box.
FYI Mike, the old program I'm trying to use is a year 2000 tax prep software from an old company named Tax and Accounting Software. Even after all these years it's been the only program I've found for printing labels that lets me start anywhere on a label page and any quantity or font. Intuit bought out the company in 2001 and continues to sell a bookkeeping package that uses a similar labeling process that does work in XP and Vista 64. If I could figure out how to export the 400+ label file I have in that old tax package in a format the bookeeping package could read, I'd do it in a heartbeat.
I'll be calling Intuit next week to see if they have any suggestions other than re-typing all that label information.
Again, thanks for any help and suggestions

  • How to install Photoshop 5 in Windows 7 64 bit machine

    My Windows XP laptop quit.  New laptop is Windows 7 64 bit machine.  When I install Photoshop CD and select Install Photoshop 5, nothing happens.  I found this link: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5162
    but I cannot open it.  The instructions with it say to copy into Files (x86\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop, but since I cannot get Photoshop 5 to load, there is no Adobe Photoshop files in x86\Adobe, only Adobe Reader.  Help!  I have lots of files I use Photoshop 5 to edit and now no way to edit them.

    a. enable file extensions to be visible:
    To show file name extensions in Windows Explorer, follow these steps:
    For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008
    Start Windows Explorer, you can do this by opening up any folder.
    Click Organize.
    Click Folder and search options.
    Click the View tab.
    Scroll down until you notice Hide extensions for known file types, un-check this line by clicking the check box.
    Note To hide file name extensions, check this line.
    Click OK
    b. open the photoshop directory/folder and attach a screenshot of its contents.
    c. open autorun (setup info) in notepad and copy and paste its contents here.
    d. open readme.wri in wordpad and see if it contains anything useful.

  • CAN'T INSTALL ITUNES 9 ON WINDOWS VISTA 64-BIT OS

    Hey guys!
    I'm having a reaaaallly hard time installing iTunes on my Windows Vista 64-bit OS. Everytime I think it's about to finish installing, it shows me this message:
    What does it mean?? Can someone PLEASE help me, I haven't had music on my iPhone for 4 weeks now!

    Curses ... you did everything right by providing the screenshot, thanks. But we really need to see the error message number that shows up after the "HRESULT" bit for one of those, and it's deciding not show us that.
    Okay ... people who get these error messages for iTunes installs typically are also getting Windows updates failures too. So we'll try to work out what the iTunes/Updates issue is by checking your Update history.
    Go into your Windows Update and click "Update History". Have updates been failing for you recently? If so, doubleclick on each failure to bring up a small window showing some info about the failure.
    What error message codes are you getting for the Windows Updates failures? (For example, 0x8007000B, or something else?)

    Hi Friends
    How to install SOA 10g on Windows 7 64-bit platform ?
    I've downloaded the 64-bit version downloadable from OTN and able to run the irca.bat on DB 10.2.0.3 however the SOA Installer fails at BPEL Config Assistant step with errors :
    deploy-applications:

    Failed at "Could not get DeploymentManager".
    This is typically the result of an invalid deployer URI format being supplied, the target server not being in a started state or incorrect authentication details being supplied.
    More information is available by enabling logging -- please see the Oracle Containers for J2EE Configuration and Administration Guide for details.

    Hi,
    We know now why SOA Installer fails...
    Now we need to know why you can not start OC4J properly. What do you see in the log files?

  • Install Captivate 4 on Windows 7 64-bit machine with Windows XP mode?

    Hi,
    I have been searching the web to find out the best way/place in which to load Captivate 4 on my Windows 7 64-bit machine. Seems some people have issues with recording, others don't. I have Windows XP mode on my machine.
    My question is... what's the best way to load Captivate 4 on Windows 7 - should I install to Windows 7 and see how it goes. Or should I install under Windows XP mode?
    Thank you!

    Try running Cp4 in WinXp compatibility mode on Win7.  Also make sure
    you're set to Run as Administrator.
    I run Cp4 on Win7 without issues.  But other users report similar problems
    to yourself.  In the end, it may or may not work for you because Adobe has
    never claimed Cp4 was compatible with Vista or Win7 64bit.

  • Is anyone running Photoshop CS6 on a Windows Vista 32 bit machine  without problems

    Is anyone running Photoshop CS6 on a Windows Vista 32 bit machine  without problems? I have over 400 GB,s  free disc space (c drive) and still am getting lots of errors and program closing problems.  I do not have USB3 on my machine so if I purchased a few 256  GB ssd drives would this help it from crashing?
    Thank you in advance for any guidance.

    Jack, as Curt has suggested, available drive space comes well down the list regards a happy experience with Photoshop.   You have also asked a self-defeating question, because the fact you are running Vista, and a 32bit version at that, more or less precludes the ability to run without problems.
    Windows 7 was billed as the first MS OS to need less system resources than its predecessor.  If your system hardware will support 64bit, then consider paying $90 for an OS upgrade  What is your system out of interest?  I have a feeling you are running with just 2Gb RAM, which just isn’t enough.  Post your specs or make and model, and I am sure you’ll get some help with what your mainboard will handle by way of RAM and whether it will support 64bit.

  • Lt R 5 software disc for Win Vista 64 bit machine

    I am currently using Lt Rm 5 Beta on my Win Vista 64 bit machine and want to upgrade to the latest release of Lt Rm 5. The disc sellers that I have looked at all say that the platform must be Win 7 or 8. Adobe told me that Lt Rm 5 would run on Win Vista 64. What am I missing.

    I'm surprised that Adobe would tell you that, because their own web site does not list Vista as a supported operating system for Lightroom 5

    Hello John
    It is not easy to understand the whole situation, especially this part with viruses.
    In my opinion WXP installation should not be problematic.
    What you need is WXP SP2 or SP3 disc and SATA driver. Without SATA driver HDD will not be visible for WXP.

    Hi, how are you doing ?
    Just one advice about it. If you want to work with Oracle databases, it will be better to install it on certified OS's. Doing so, you will get better experience and more realistic experience on it.
    Following the Oracle database documentation, you will get all that you need to successfully install the database in the certified OS.
