How to Uninstall Adobe Acrobat 9.0 from Vista?

On my laptop (Windows Vista), I have a Adobe Acrobat 9.0 which I need to uninstall. It was giving me limited access and use. To remedy this, I installed, Adobe Reader 8.0. That works fine but when I want to read pdf files, the 9.0 version pops up first and gives me a message that I'm unable to read the file. I can't always elect "Save Target As" to opt to use the 8.0 version of Reader (i.e. viewing bank statements).
When I went to delete Adobe 9.0 from my C drive, I was denied access because I "don't have permission".
Does anyone know how to fix this?

You can only uninstall from an administrative account. Be aware you are not supposed to have Reader and Acrobat on the same machine. Uninstalling Acrobat 9 will break Reader which will need to be re-installed. For Vista compatability make sure you update to 8.1.3 or later.

    How to uninstall Adobe Acrobat Reader 8 and Adobe Download Manager completely?
    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 3 and I don't want to uninstall that.

    Hi
    Most Mac applications come in self-contained packages (ctrl-click, or right-click, & you will see Show Package Contents), they can just be dragged to the trash.
    Some applications have their own uninstaller which must be run.
    With Adobe Reader 8, I believe the icon in Applications is a folder so just drag it to the trash & empty the trash. I believe Download Manager (Applications/Utilities) should be the same. Someone may know different.
    There is also AppZapper or AppDelete. These work by you dragging & dropping the application you wish to delete onto its icon, AppZapper/AppDelete then pulls all parts of that application together then moves it to the trash.

  • How to transfer adobe acrobat XI registration from one desktop to another (bought new PC).

    how do you  transfer adobe acrobat XI registration from one desktop to another (bought new PC).  Need to use ASAP!

    Hi jaanders2,
    The licensing agreement allows you to activate Acrobat on up to two computers. So, if you've only activated in your old computer, you simply need to install and activate Acrobat on the second computer. If you no longer have the installer file or installation media, you can download Acrobat from here: Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X - Adobe
    If you need your serial number, this document will help you track it down: Find your serial number quickly - Adobe
    And this document, will walk you through the activation process: Activation & Deactivation Help
    Please let us know if you need additional help.
    Best,

  • How to remove Adobe Acrobat XI completely from computer

    I had/have Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard installed on my computer. We wanted to see what additional services were available through XI.  We downloaded the trial version and when we were satisfied that we did not require that edition, we removed same through the control panel.  Now, PDF Maker no longer works, and the addon Tab only appears in WORD.  As well, when we try to download/open PDF documents from the internet, we are unable to do so.  How do I remove XI completely from my computer in order to allow PDF Maker to work again.  The error I receive is that the server is cannot be loaded.

    The disk 2 usually is meant for Acrobat 9.  You can insert the disc and check for yourself.

    How do I completely uninstall adobe acrobat pro 9 tial version
    after it has expired?  Since this has expired I am having issues with other programs that use Adome A
    crobat and the new flash player will not install correctly.

    If uninstalling Acrobat normally does not resolve the issue, you better ask in the appropriate Acrobat forum.  Don't forget to mention your OS and any relevant details.
    You can continue this topic regarding your problem with Flash Player, but we also need to know your OS, browser, and the exact details of your problem.

  • How can I move Acrobat 9 Pro from my old MacBook to a new one?

    Hi there,
    How can I move Acrobat 9 Pro from my old MacBook to a new one?
    Thanks!

    Hi cialbert,
    Do you have the install media? If not, you can download Acrobat from here: Download Acrobat products | 9, 8 - Adobe.  You'll need your Acrobat serial number (see Find your serial number quickly - Adobe).
    Note, as well, that the licensing agreement allows you to activate the software on up to two computers. If you've already activated it on two computers, deactivate on one before installing on the new computer (see Activation & Deactivation Help).
    I think that should take care of it! Please let us know if you need additional help.

    Why Acrobat x professional is changing the text formatting specifically the font family  and the font size of the text in my pdf on exporting it to Microsoft word file format ?How should i stop Acrobat x professional from doing that so that i get an exactly same word file on exporting it from its pdf counterpart?

    I was testing the preciseness & efficiency of Adobe acrobat x professional's doc conversion capabilities. As i have to take a document editing project in future which is going to need lot of pdf to word and vice versa conversions . What I did was I created a test word document converted into a pdf using a pdf maker in my word 2007 , Acrobat did convert the document from word to pdf keeping everything in the source file intact , However when i tried the other way round and attempted to convert the same pdf to word 2007 file format I lost my formatting ?So the font that I used to create the pdf are the ones taken from word 2007 which i believe is using the fonts that are installed in my computer. Any suggestions on how to preserve the formatting of the document after converting it from pdf to word file format?
    Regards
    Mike
