Installing acrobat 8.1 help

I purchaed back in 2007 the Acrobat readrr Pro 8.1 and used it on my windows machine.  In 2010 i purchased a Mac and could not use the software.  i have since purchased VMware Fusion 6 and installed windows 7 sp1 64 so that i could use my 8.1 pro.  but it does not reccognize my serial number now.  i called support and they said that i needed to contact the forum for assistance.
what do i do now.

That is very unusual that Adobe Support refers you to the forum for a serial number issue.
Try reposting in this forum http://forums.adobe.com/community/download_install_setup - Adobe staff there is very helpful with such issues.

  • How do I re-install Acrobat 7?

    I am having trouble re-installing and launching A
    crobat 7.0 Professional on my Windows XP Machine.  It is giving me error messages about not finding Resource files and Pdf port & Printer.  Any help?  Also I bought a Windows 7 machine where I would like to install Acrobat.  Please help!!
    Thanks

    For AA7, since you have uninstalled it do the following. Remove the folder it was installed in and use the MS Cleanup Tool (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301 for information).
    Then reinstall. In the future when you have problems, try the repair first. If you upgrade to Win7, be aware that you probably need to upgrade AA to AA9.

    What OS? Modern OSs will not support Acrobat 7.

  • Can someone help me install Acrobat 8 Pro on MAC 10.9.4?

    Can someone help me install Acrobat 8 Pro on MAC 10.9.4?

    I don't think this version of Acrobat is compatible with your OS (seeing as the minimum requirement for Acrobat 9 is Mac OS X v. 10.4.11 or 10.5)...
    In other words, time to upgrade to Acrobat XI.

  • In installation process of Acrobat Professional 7 , its showing that Adobe Pdf printer is not Installed...need help to install the software completely

    If it is Win 7 or later, the Adobe PDF printer for AA 7 will not install and AcroTray will not function. You will have to install a PS driver from Adobe or maybe an HP color PS printer driver. Then edit the driver properties and change the name to Adobe PDF and the port to FILE. You will always have to do an extra step in creating PDFs by opening the file that is created in Distiller to get the PDF.
    If you are talking about Win 8, you may not be successful at all. If you got Acrobat and Distiller to install, then there is a chance.

  • How can I use pdf pack to convert cubase documents  (music scores)  into pdfs? I am looking for the former possibility to install acrobat like a printer but i don't have this option with "pdf pack". Can you help?

    How can I use pdf pack to convert cubase documents  (music scores)  into pdfs? I am looking for the former possibility to install acrobat like a printer but i don't have this option with "pdf pack". Can you help?

    Hi mariab,
    What format are those music scores (I'm not familiar with cubase documents). But, it may be that Adobe PDF Pack doesn't support that format. In that case, Acrobat is the way to go. You can then print your files to PDF as you'd like. You're welcome to try Acrobat for free for 30 days to see whether it's going to work for you. If you decide it is, and you'd like to use it going forward, you could convert your PDF Pack subscription into an Acrobat subscription.
    Best,
    Sara

    I have not contacted Adobe. I am using acrobat pro CC, and haven't noticed any problem with the software itself. The only problem I have had so far is when I try to download.

  • Installed Acrobat XI Standard on windows 8.1, see it in my download folder but it will not run?  Help?

    Installed Acrobat XI Standard on windows 8.1, see it in my download folder but it will not run?  Help?

    Also, once you successfully install, please backup the install file to a separate HD and/or CD. I agree that your comment is not clear. You say you installed it, but it is simply in the download folder. Did you run the install file that you downloaded? The download does not install the program, but the install is an extra step.

  • HELP!  when installing Acrobat X Pro, the checkbox says "OS REQUIREMENTS NOT MET.?"

    HELP!  when installing Acrobat X Pro, the checkbox says "OS REQUIREMENTS NOT MET. CURRENT OS: WINDOWS VISTA SP0 64 BIT." SERVICE PACK 2 RECOMMENDED."

    mylenium,
    sorry.
    the issue is i run windows 7, but acrobat x thinks im on windows vista for some reason.

  • Please Help:  Lost Acrobat 8 Organizer Collection Folders when installing Acrobat 9

    I guess it should have been obvious...but after installing Acrobat 9 Pro...from version 8 Pro...all of my Organizer collections are not there at all....gone. (I have the old \organizer70 folder on a backup)
    When looking under: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Adobe\Acrobat\9.0....There is a FILE called: Organizer90. (no directory, like in 8.1)
    Is there ANY way to import or convert acrobat 8 Organizer collections to acrobat 9???? - or any other way to restore my organizer collection folders? - I have a few hundred of them...and I can't afford to start over....I'm desperate! :)
    This (conversion) should have been obvious when upgrading. I even tried copying the directory from 8 into the same subdirectory as 9...but no luck.
    If someone knows...PLEASE let me know....I even tried a repair install to no avail.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for answering.... :)
    This is unbelieveable.....it's like they just ignored folks who love the organizer.
    That's really what makes it worth it to me.
    Ok...
    Is there anyway to copy the History file(s)...from Acrobat 8 to 9?
    I figure....I clear the history in 8....then open up a collection folder's multiple files at one time....you know, to establish a new history of files for this day....on another PC....then copy that file to my PC...and put it in Acrobat 9's place. Hoping that Acrobat 9 will open the history files...which I can then save as a new collection in the Organizer...and rename the folder the same as I had it named in Acrobat 8.
    If you can tell me how to copy the history file from 8 to 9...I'd appreciate it....
    Hehe...sorry to sound so desperate...but I am... :)......I have a few hundred folders...and that's the only way...by copying the history and making new collection folders...that I can think of.
    Thanks Again,
    Rick...

  • I had one of your technicians re-install Acrobat Pro and it still won't open. My technician was Rajat and he was reading from a manual. He did not appear to be competent. He told the case has to be escalated

    I had a technician, Rajat, from a Adobe re-install Acrobat Pro. It still won't open. He said the case has to be elevated. How do I get help from someone in the United States?

    Not one of my technicians. We are just fellow users of the product.
    But if you start from the top and explain your problem we have a fair track record of helping. Some questions for you
    - what version of Mac or Windows
    - what version of Acrobat Pro
    - what exactly happens when you try to open Acrobat Pro (error messages in full please)
    - whether it ever worked and what changed?
