Licensing Acrobat Pro Mac and Windows on same Mac

I have a large number Macs in our business running Creative Suite 6. A number of those operators also have a need to run LiveCycle Designer, which is a Windows only product. At present we buy addtional 4 GB RAM, VMWare Fusion and a Windows 7 licence in addition to purchasing a standalone copy of Acrobat for Windows. Is it really necessary for us to buy an additional licence for Windows Acrobat or would we be OK utilising the existing Mac Acrobat Pro licence?

If you're buying the perpetual license version of Creative Suite 6, you would have to buy separate licenses for Macintosh and Windows versions. If you're getting Creative Suite 6 through your subscription to the Adobe Creative Cloud, you can mix your two eligible copies, and download both Windows and Mac versions.

Share files between Mac and Windows in same iMac with boot camp

Hello,
I am new in using Mac and recently I buy a IMac 24" model.
I used to use PC a long time with a lot of old document.
I want to install Windows XP with boot camp.
But I also want to share my documents, music, video files between Mac and Windows in same iMac.
How can I do this?
Thanks in advance,
Eric

Hi Eric and welcome to Discussions and the Apple world.
Mac OSX can read and write from Windows partitions (like the BootCamp Windows partition you are about to create) when using FAT32 as file system for Windows.
However with FAT32 you are limited to a partition size of 32GB.
Mac OSX can also read from Windows partitions that uses the NTFS file system, but it can not write to them unless you use a third-party helper like either Paragons NTFS for Mac http://www.paragon-software.com/home/ntfs-mac/ or NTFS-3G http://www.ntfs-3g.org/
Windows can not even see or use a Mac OSX partition without additional help by MacDrive http://www.mediafour.com/products/macdrive/

Mac and Windows on same iTunes Library? NAS?

I moved my mac iTunes library to a NAS, hoping that all machines in the house (Mac and Windows) could access and update the library (but not at the same time because of file locking). So I moved the .itl and .xml files over to the NAS as well but some machines can only see parts of the library.
Is this not a supported configuration? How could I set up such a sharing library with update capability? Thanks in advance.

You don't need any software installed on the windows PC. Just plug it into the Ethernet port on the router to the Ethernet port on the NIC card. If you want the Fios software installed go to activatemyfios.verizon.net and click configure another computer and enter your fios user name and password. If you are having connection problems go to verizon.com/connectionwizard and install that software.

Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and Windows Vista

The last version of Adobe I used to use is version 5. Of
course that is outdated, and it would appear that the files I
created with that version are not compatible with the Adobe Reader
9. So I downloaded the trial version of Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and
tried to install it. The computer I am trying to install it on is
new and the OS running is Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit I
believe). When it says it is installing, after it reaches
99.blah-blah % it keeps asking me about a scanner being connected.
What the heck is that all about? It's weird. I connect my scanner
and it scans and I print a document to a Microsoft OneNote file,
after which when I close the scanner window the program is not
installed at all. I check my program list from my start menu to see
if it is there; and nothing. This thing is, why the heck doesn't it
just install the full trial program like any other normal
installation? I just want to be able to send word, excel, etc.
documents using the acrobat distiller like I used to and create pdf
documents. This is very frustrating. If this is some kind of
strange compatibility issue with Vista, than I am really starting
to regret buying a system with Vista on it more and more. Can
anyone tell me what is going on here. What I may be doing wrong?
Anything. Please help. Thank you.

Adobe Acrobat Pro 8 and Windows XP SP3

Hi all;
My adobe Acrobat Pro 8 (last updated) no longer works well if I install
Windows XP PRO SP3 . In fact Adobe Acrobat works but is totally unable to recognize any printer and a pop windows invites me to install one . Really I have 5 printers configurerd on my computer.
If I uninstall SP3 and come back to SP2 the problem desappears .
A precizion, it does not happens on all my computers, only on my DEll D620 LAPTOP.
Happy to read any help !!!
Many Thanks !!!
[email protected]

Hi Christian, so after installing SP3 you can go into your printers folder and see all your printers? Are these all "local" printers or "networked" printers?
Also, with SP3 installed, are you able to print from any other application (i.e. Notepad) to your printers?

Adobe Acrobat Pro 7 and Windows 8.

Does Adobe Acrobat Pro 7 work on Windows 8? Why do I receive the following message:
Impossibile avviare correttamente l'applicazione (0xc00000fd). Fare clic su OK per chiudere l'applicazione.
I bought the software and I need it for professional reasons.
Why is this?
thank you
Simona Gatti

Hi Medina ,
Acrobat 8 is an older version .It might not be compatible with Windows 7 .
Try upgrading it to the latest version .i.e Acrobat 11.0.10 or any higher versions than Acrobat 8.
Many folks have gotten AA8 to work on Win7. I have only heard of one report suggesting that AA8 will work on a 64-bit system, and I am not sure about the report. If you have a 64-bit system, you will likely need to upgrade, though if you play around you might be successful in finding a solution (Adobe will not help since it is not a certified platform, but some folks here might if they have been successful).
In any case, after installation you will need to do the updates for proper operation. If you can not do them from within Acrobat, you may have to download them fromhttp://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows. You need to install the updates in ORDER unless indicated other wise. Reboots can typically be saved until the last update is installed.

Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and Microsoft Office for Mac 2011

I do not have Acrobat available in the Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 task bar. (Mac OS 10.8.3)
I have searched, and my understanding is that these two programs are not compatible. Has a plugin or something been developed to do this?
What functionality is missed by not having this?
Thanks,
Donna

There's no plugin for the Mac version of Office, but you can still use Acrobat by printing to the PDF Printer to generate a PDF from your Office files.
(PS - you should post Acrobat-related questions in the Acrobat forums, not the Reader ones)

Mac and Windows on Same System. Having glitches. Help!

Hello, I have my laptop set up to a router with the main computer being a Mac. It basically works fine, but I have been noticing some glitches especially in trying to play media, such as YouTube files and other streaming videos. I can never get them to play at the right speed, even though I have it set to automatic. Do I need to set this differently? I also cannot print PDF files, have tried just about anything, but that may have nothing to do with FIOS.
When we set it up, it was just configured to my system, with the network code and I downloaded the network adapters. It looks like there is another step here -- configure Windows with either the info from a flash drive or a disc, according to the Verizon website. But, how can I configue Windows if the main system is a Mac. Confused. Thanks for any info.

You don't need any software installed on the windows PC. Just plug it into the Ethernet port on the router to the Ethernet port on the NIC card. If you want the Fios software installed go to activatemyfios.verizon.net and click configure another computer and enter your fios user name and password. If you are having connection problems go to verizon.com/connectionwizard and install that software.

I purchased an annual subscription to Acrobat Pro XI and installed on my Mac two days ago. I cannot open PDFs. I keep getting a dialogue box saying my trial has ended and asking if I want to buy the software. Was using Acrobat Pro 9 previously. It appears even that won't open. SOS!

Hi Margot ,
You can click on accept or buy ,which ever option you see on that dialog box.It will prompt you to type in your Adobe Credentials.You can license it by doing the same.
If it still doesn't work ,follow these steps and see how it goes .
Delete all the files from following folders:
[Home]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/SLStore
[Home]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/SLCache
And, delete all files from following folder except cache.db
[Home]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AdobePCD
Then launch Acrobat and try to activate and check.

Hi, Upgraded to Acrobat Pro 9 and Windows 7, and I can't merge files anymore. Acrobat Pro tries to save each file individually before it tries to combine the files. I actually get an error message with PDF files that are in my list of files to merge. Please help!

Did you do the updates to Acrobat? Now at 9.5.5.

hello there! i am using Adobe acrobat pro DC and using windows 8.1. Recently I was trying to convert a web page (includes Greek letters) into PDF. I noticed that the conversion is not accurate, some words are missing, some are misplaced. Especially Greek words are not accurately converted or even not converted. Please give me some suggestions to improve this issue. Regards

Hey quantum info,
Thank you for posting at Adobe forums. We would love to help you out.
Could you please let me know if you have tried converting other web pages to PDF and checked if the same issue persists.
How have you been trying to convert the web page to PDF?
Are you trying to convert to PDF directly via browsers or using "File > Create > PDF from Web Page" option in Acrobat.
Let me know more so that I can analyze where actually the issue persists.
Hope to hear from you.
