Installing Acrobat 6.0 Professional on XP

Acrobat 6.0 Professional was installed on my system when I upgraded to XP a number of years ago. The software worked without any problems. The software installation appeared to have become corrupted and I attempted to uninstall it. The uninstall was not successful and I continued with a manual uninstall. The Acrobat Installer starts and when I click on Install Acrobat 6.0 Professional I get the following pop-up error message “The installation source for this product is not available. Verify that the source exists and that you can access it.” I checked the Startup.ini file and noticed XP does not appear in the file. The operating system closest to XP that does appear in the Startup.ini file is WinNT. Can I install Acrobat 6.0 Professional on my XP system? If so what do I need to do next?

Michael thanks for your help the Microsoft. The Windows Cleanup Install Tool worked great!

Install Acrobat 7.0 professional on Mac (OS10.5.8)

I load the disc to my apps folder, and try to start it, but it keeps crashing. Any thoughts?

In case the information helps anyone else, the problem was Little Snitch. Even with the latest version, it isn't working normally with the latest version of FF. On this machine, at least... I haven't checked it on other installations.

Adobe acrobat 7.0 professional installed on windows 8

With the assistance of Adobe Chat I have downloaded adobe acrobat 7.0 professional to my desktop which has windows 8. Everything works beautifully except when I go on to internet explorer and try to view a pdf document. It says "This page can't be displayed". I'm sure it is just a setting somewhere, can anyone help me? Thank you, Don.

Yes, I successfully installed Acrobat 7.0 professional on Windows 8. I’m now able to create pdf files on my Microsoft Office Suit (Word & Excel) and anytime I need to add/extract pages, etc. in these pdf files I’m able to use 7.0. My only problem was opening pdf’s on my internet explorer. I downloaded the latest version of Adobe reader and now everything works great (for my needs). I now have the choice of opening my pdf files (In “Documents”) in either 7.0 or reader, depending if I want to just read the document or work with it. I have no need to create pdf files with Adobe Acrobat 7.0 because saving documents in pdf format is a built-in feature of my Microsoft Office suit software (which is great)

Acrobat 8.0 Professional - program closes spontaneously

Recently upgraded a PC to xp sp2 and installed Acrobat 8.0 professional.
When opening the program it opens for about a minute then closes. No error, don't even have to open a file....it acts like it is timing out. I have ran the repair, uninstalled and re-installed.
there are no erros in the eventvwr regarding Adobe.....
any ideas of other places to look?

I have applied the latest 8.1.2 updates.
We get no errors or indication that anything has gone wrong...it just closes whether opening a pdf, or just opening the program. sometimes it stays open for 90 seconds, sometimes just 30 seconds.....

Adobe Acrobat 8 - file updates not installing on Win 7 Professional

How do I install MSP file updates to Adobe Acrobat after downloading them? I have just installed Acrobat 8.0 from the original installation CD on a new PC running Windows 7 Professional (64 bit) and have downloaded the update to 8.1.0 to begin with, but on clicking it get the error messsage 'This patch could not be opened. Contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer patch package'. Updater is not working at all. It says it cannot find any updates. Even when I place the MSP file in the Updater folder to which it is supposed to download updates, it does not find updates. What is wrong? Why won't this patch install? Thank you! I really don't want to be stuck with 8.0.0 when I know that years of updates through to 8.3.1 are available, but for some reason they will not install intuitively.

Hi ,
Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Win 7. Please find the mentioned Kb: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/system-requirements-acrobat-family-produ cts.html#main_System_requirements_for_Acrobat_8_Pro showing system requirement for installing Acrobat 8. As Acrobat version 8 is very old product so I would recommend you to purchase Acrobat11 which has more enhanced features and functionalities.

Adobe CC just installed Acrobat DC. Where are my plug-ins from Acrobat 11? I use PitStop Professional but it is not in the tools panel. Do I need to reinstall?

Adobe CC just installed Acrobat DC. PitStop Professional plug-in is not installed in Acrobat DC tools panel. The plug-in is the only thing that exists in my Acrobat 11 folder. Do I need to reinstall? How can I use existing plug-ins from Acrobat 11 in Acrobat DC?

You need to install a special version using a special serial number... see the following:

i can not re install Adobe Acrobat 7.0 professional on my computer. It is saying a qualifying product is not detected. I cant even get through using the customer service line they provide 800-272-3623. This is the worst interactionI have ever had with a company.

Hi joej49728017,
I am so sorry for the inconvenience caused. However this is just because Adobe Acrobat 7.0 is an outdated version & the now the activation server for it does not exist.
Please refer to the following KB doc. Error: "Activation Server Unavailable" | CS2, Acrobat 7, Audition 3
The above link will help you to install a special version that does not require activation.
In case you further need any help, please let us know. We will be more than happy to help you.

Adobe PDF Port_Printer didn't install with re-installation of Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional.

A new Windows 7 OS was installed on my computer and I've had to re-load Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional. Everything loaded except for Adobe PDF Printer. Error message: Warning 20225. Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Setup was unable to create a new item: Adobe PDF Port-Printer. The Adobe PDF Printer may be unavailable. I'm using the original CD to set up Adobe. Any idea on why I'm getting this message?

The first version of Acrobat to support Windows 7 is version 9.2 - so this is why you are encountering issues. To troubleshooting the problem, you might find this article helpful Error "Warning 20225" or no PDF Printer appears.

Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional won't install with new serial number from Adobe

Having replaced my PC I tried to install Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional but I was unable to activate registration as it had already been registered and is an 'old product'. I have contacted the Adobe on-line advisor and was given a new serial number and a file to download.
The set-up wizard will not complete even though I type in the new number accurately and each time I've had to abort installation as it says it can't be verified.
Does anyone have any suggestions or explain what I might be doing wrong please?
Thank you

Thank you Bill for replying.
I have been able to install the disc but it tells me that I have to activate it with a time limit of 30 days and counting. Activation fails each time I've tried. As I'm nearing the end of the time limit I decided to contact Adobe for advice. They gave me a download package and new serial number but it's only suitable for OS XP and Windows 2000 so I'm unable to download it. I was told by the advisor if I still had problems to use the forum as a means of support so that's why I'm talking to people here.
I have uninstalled Adobe Acrobate Pro 7, so I might try reinstalling the disc to see if it gives me another 30 days grace, that, at least, would be a way around it.
I'll now follow the link you've given me. Though I do suspect I'm in a bit of a cul de sac.

Acrobat 7.0 professional install

when installing in the activation server unavailable there is no Acrobat 7.0 Professional, only Standard how should I proceed withinstallation?

You can install Acrobat 7 from within the Creative Suite 2 installation I believe.

Free (?) upgrade because Acrobat 7.0 professional won't install in Windows 7

I have Acrobat 7.0 Professional running under Windows XP pro with no problem. I understand from user forums that this version does not run under Windows 7. Does Adobe offer me a free upgrade to a version compatible with Windows 7 or am I forced to buy yet another piece of software from Adobe in order to be able to use Acrobat under Windows 7 ???

Acrobat 6.0 Professional Install Error

Hello,
I just did a fresh install of Windows XP Home Edition, and when I attempted to reinstall Acrobat 6.0 Professional I received the following error message approximately 85-90% into the install process: "Internal error 2753. Dist_acrodist.exe"
Does anyone know what this error is and how I can overcome it and get Acrobat reinstalled?
Many thanks!
Scott

Scott,
Did you ever get past the error? If so, how? I'm getting the same error on reinstall.
