Install order of Acrobat Pro and other CC applications

I work at a college and we're just getting started with Creative Cloud. When setting up the first seat of CC for my institution, it was a device license on a Windows 7 system. Only after my first attempt failed did I find the instructions for the command-line install of Acrobat Pro, and that it needed to be done before any other CC applications. This was surprising, but the instructions were effective after I uninstalled everything and started over.
Now I have a named user to set up on a Mac OS 10.9.5 system, and I'd like to do it right the first time. Anyone out there have any advice for me on this?
TIA, David

The command line install for Acrobat Pro Windows 7 is not that bad, the install information is all included in the packager once the its created.
In your exceptions folder there is file called Exceptioninfo.txt, if you read this you will see the correct way to install using command line.  Below is an example of how to create a batch file to double click instead of typing these commands repeatedly.
Going even one step further you can do the following.
1) Copy the deployment package to the desktop
2) in the Exceptions folder create a new text document and call it "Acrobat_installer" or something of that nature, copy and paste the following into it.
cd \users\(username) \desktop\(Package folder name)\(package name)\Exceptions
ExceptionDeployer --workflow=install --mode=pre
3) Enter your windows user profile name in (user name) - Enter the (package folder name) enter the (package name you created)
4) Save the text document as "Acrobat_installer.bat"
Keep in mind you will copy this .bat file into the exceptions folder of your deployment package.
Lastly ensuring the user name is correct, run the batch file(.bat)  on the PC.
Here is my example:  Bold are the parts I mentioned above.
cd users\cpreslar\desktop\TAG_CCIP_7_14_2014\TAG Creative Cloud Installer Package 7142014\Exceptions
ExceptionDeployer --workflow=install --mode=pre
Feel free to use this next time you have to do a windows deployment.

    You do not need a Beta channel build of Firefox (which currently is 32.0b6) to use Flash as the issue was you needed Firefox 27.0 or newer to use the old Flash 11.1 plugin on Android '''4.4'''. after it came out on tablets/phones.
    What Nexus 7 version do you have as there was a 2012 and a 2013 model. A easy way to tell if it is a 2013 is it has a camera on each '''back''' and front while 2012 only has one on front.
    If it is the 2012 then it has a Nvidia Tegra 3 so the old Flash 11.1 Plugin is disabled.

  • I have just bought and installed adobe acrobat pro and got the serial number too, why do you ask for

    I have just bought and installed adobe acroba
    t pro and got the serial number, but now the system k
    eep asking me for an old serial number from my former version.
    During the years I have reached vesion 9, but I don't have any old serial number.
    What to be done?

    you got a discount because you bought an upgrade version. it needs proof that you own a previous version. more info can be had if you post in the correct acrobat forum. this forum is for questions and comments about the workings (or not as the case may be) of the forums themselves.

  • Acrobat Pro and Reader 9.4.4 to 9.4.5 Updates Fail

    I was unable to get a satisfying answer via phone support, and after connecting with a supervisor, I was disconnected. So here goes...
    (Mac OS X 10.6.8) Adobe Updater 6  began notifying me recently that updates were available for Adobe Reader from 9.4.4 to 9.4.5, but my attempts to follow instructions resulted in Error 1301 "The update could not be applied because the Adobe Reader application contents were modified since the original installation. Please reinstall Adobe Reader and check for updates again."
    Adobe updater soon notified me of the need to update my Acrobat Pro from 9.4.4 to 9.4.5, but but my attempts to follow instructions resulted in Error 1301 "The update could not be applied because the Acrobat Pro application contents were modified since the original installation. Please reinstall Acrobat Pro and check for updates again."
    When Adobe updates its software, I shouldn't have to "reinstall" old software and "check for updates again" in order to install the update. Surely Adobe can offer a more direct, convenient way for customers to update their licensed software?

    I agree with rikbarry - I finally reinstalled Acrobat, then ran the 
    update to 9.4.5. The updater took nearly an hour to finish which can't 
    be normal, but the software appears to be the correct version now.
    I work for a very small graphic design company and use an older emac 
    that has pretty much reached its shelf life for many apps and OS. 
    Could my aging computer be contributing to the problem?
    Because we depend heavily on pdf workflow, I chose to reinstall 
    WITHOUT running the uninstaller first, as the 9.4.4 version was at 
    least still functioning. I was somewhat surprised that it worked, and 
    I am NOT looking forward to the next updater.

  • Acrobat Pro and Reader fighting for Safari frameworks folder...

    We manage hundreds of Macs of which most are at 10.4.8.
    We have both Acrobat Pro and Reader 7.0.8 installed on all Macs.
    Sometime within the last few weeks something has changed on our systems (eg: upgrading from something under 10.4.8 to 10.4.8) that is causing Acrobat Pro and Reader to fight for the Safari.app/Contents/Frameworks/ folder. This folder contains aliases to either Pro or Reader frameworks within that Acrobat app's own frameworks folder (...Acrobat Pro.app/Contents/Frameworks/)
    This issue is that the end user is prompted to authenticate for either Reader or Pro to "repair itself" which it is just changing the aliases within the Safari Frameworks folder to point to their own frameworks.
    If I set Preview as the default pdf viewer and then delete Acrobat Reader so that only Preview and Acrobat Pro are on the client, then it seems to work beautifully without authentication request. We would like to keep Reader on the systems though. We use Sassafras' Keyserver with a limited number of licenses for Acrobat Pro.
    Has anyone else experienced this? Found a solution, etc?
    Thanks!

  • I just purchased a month to month subscription for Acrobat Pro and I am getting an error when I try to download the software.

    I just purchased a month to month subscription for Acrobat Pro and I am getting an error when I try to download the software. after about 50% of the way, it just crashes.
    Thank you,
    JTF

    I am having the same problem - the install crashes around 40%. 
    I am using MAC OS 10.10.2 and purchased Acrobat Pro monthly subscription.  The error message is: 
    'Acrobat installer has encountered an unexpected failure.  Please try again.  If it continues to fail, contact Adobe support.'
    I have tried several times but keep getting the same error message.  Any ideas?
    Thanks,

  • About setting tab order in Acrobat Pro X

    I'm really disappointed in the way you changed how I set tab order in Acrobat Pro X. I work with a lot of forms with multiple fields. Some of these forms have up to 100 different fields on one page that need to be in the order I set. In previous versions, I could set this order simply by clicking on the fields in the correct order I want. But with X, I have to drag each field one by one into the correct order. When you have a bunch of fields to set, this is tedious. And, when I click on a field to edit content, more times than not, it changes the tab order, and I'm back to finding it in the panel and dragging it back to it's correct place. This is time consuming. Not to mention when there are more fields than the monitor's height, the fields are scrolled in the panel.
    So, please do something to give me the option to set tab order like in previous versions, and once they are set, leave them where they are. Or am I doing something wrong?

    You're not doing anything wrong, it really sucks. But things are improved significantly with Acrobat 11. First, there's a preference setting that prevents the automatic reordering that can happen when fields are moved/edited. Second, you are able to select and move multiple fields at a time in the fields panel, which can speed things up considerably. It's still not as efficient as the old method, but at least it has finally been addressed. I think this feature alone is worth the upgrade price for the amount of time it will save and the beneficial effects on stress, blood pressure, and hair loss.

  • I installed CS6, including Acrobat Pro, now I can't open Acrobat or PDF documents.

    I installed CS6, including Acrobat Pro, now I can't open Acrobat or PDF documents. All other CS6 applications are available. The icon for Acrobat just shows the internet explorer icon.

    There is a special procedure for Acrobat as part of CS. It goes something like opening one of the other applications and activating, then opening Acrobat (I think the others need to stay open) and activating it. It seems like a strange procedure and is likely documented in your info -- but I can't say for sure.

    Hi Mbs@adobe,
    It sounds to me like you're trying to open a PDF via one of the Acrobat online services, not via Acrobat. Did you install the file that you downloaded after you signed up? Once you do, Acrobat will be installed on your computer, and you can run it locally (you don't access an Acrobat Pro subscription via the web--it works just like a version of Acrobat that you might purchase from the Adobe Store, or a large retailer).
    Then, you'll open the Acrobat application from your desktop and choose File > Open to open your PDF file.
    Please let us know how it goes.
    Best,
    Sara
