Printer spooler error when attempting to install Acrobat Pro (also Reader)

I tried to install the trial version of Acrobat Pro today. Installation would not complete due to an inability to stop the print spooler.
After this failure to install, I was no longer able to access my printer via the previously installed Acrobat Reader. I uninstalled Reader and attempted to reinstall it, only to discover the same print spooler problem. Neither program will now install.
I am running the latest version of Windows 8. Can anybody help?

Back with more information.
After rebooting I successfully installed Acrobat Reader XI and established that it could contact the printer.
I then tried to install the trial version of Acrobat Pro XI. The procedure was slightly different this time, as this time it went via Adobe Creative Cloud, but the installation failed.
The error report follows:
Exit Code: 7

Error when attempting to install Acrobat XI on a new PC

I'm trying to install Acrobat XI on a new home machine (it's been installed on my laptop since last July). During the extract process, I receive a the following error:
I'm running the install as administrator and placing the extracted files in a folder with full access. There's lots of space on the hard drive. The PC is running Windows 8.1 Enterprise and has the latest Microsoft patches. Any idea why I'm getting this error or how to get around it?
Thanks,
JCC

Thanks for the prompt reply. Running as administrator was one of the first things I did when the problem cropped up. Sorry, I should have included that in my original post.
Since writing the post, I downloaded a trial copy of Acrobat and then entered my key. Worked fine. Here's my theory on what was wrong.
1. I purchased this software last July and immediately installed it on my Windows 8.1 laptop. Install worked fine. My home computer was running Window 7 and an earlier version of Acrobat so I didn't have a reason to install my "extra" copy on that machine.
2. Just purchased a new home PC running Windows 8.1 and I'm going through the time consuming process of moving in. When I tried to install the latest version of Acrobat on the new PC, it yielded the described error. Very probably, Microsoft changed something that made my original install incompatible. Meanwhile, Adobe fixed the incompatibility so the latest install works.
Granted, this is strictly theoretical but it sure seems to fit.
Please consider this case closed.

I have attempted to install Acrobat Pro as a trial, just to print some magic tricks for my daughter

I have attempted to install acrobat pro as a trial just to print some magic tricks for my daughter. The acrobat installed but when i attempt to print the pdf file it says i have to sign in to acrobat but then it goes round and round, (i am currently signed in to adobe,) and says over and over 'retry' either my computer is not connected to the internet, which it is, or the clock on my computer is wrong, which it isnt. help????

That's a lot of trouble to go to to print something - you can use the free Adobe Reader for that.

Pardon me if this has been answered elsewhere. I have looked and not found this error in other posts.
The Adobe Application Manager gives the following error when I attempt to install the 11.0.4 update for AE CS6.

Error when attempting to install download assistant

I have made several attempts to install the download assistant onto my Macbook Pro. I keep getting an error message that says that the file is damaged and to download a new file from the author.
I've tried that, but am still getting the error. I've seen that others have had the same problem while searching the forum, so if anyone could please help it'd be appreciated.

I receive the same error message. It says: The application could not be installed because the installer file is damaged. Try obtaining a new installer file from the application author.
And when I try to download it again it keeps saying the same error message.

Printer server error when attempting to print wirelessly

Hope someone can assist me. I get the following error when I use system diagnostics when I attempt to print through the airport extreme wireless USB printer port, "Cannot connect to sever. Network diagnostics was able to connect to the internet, but not to the server "HP Photosmart 8100 series.riousbprint.tcp.local. This could be caused by problems with the server, or an Internet problem between this computer and the sever." When I attempt to print, the printer receives the signal and begins its cycle but I soon get a printer stop message with no reason.
Thanks,

Error when trying to upgrade Acrobat Pro 10.1.1 to 10.1.2 with an AIP

I am trying to use an AIP to update Acrobat Pro from 10.1.1 to 10.1.2.
I run msiexec /a AcroPro.msi with the base 10.0 msi on the CD.
I then cd to the AIP
I then run msiexec /a AcroPro.msi /p AcrobatUpd1012.msp
I then use the Customization Wizard to generate a .mst. with serial number, remove shortcuts, etc.
I then configure a GPO with the .msi at the AIP and apply the .mst in the GPO using computer configuration.
When test machine reboots GPO attempts to install, but fails with error %%1274 in Windows System event log.

You need to look at this Adobe KB document;
http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/update-patch-acrobat-reader-10.html
Here is the crux of the issue though.
Acceptable AIP patch patterns for Windows deployments
Acrobat (Formula = Base release + latest quarterly + latest out of cycle patch)
Acceptable: 10.0.0 > 10.1.2 (Q)
Acceptable: 10.0.0 > 10.1.1 (Q)
Acceptable: 10.0.0 > 10.0.1 (Q) > 10.0.3 (OOC)
Unacceptable: 10.0.0 > 10.1.0 (Q) > 10.1.1 (Q)
Reader (Formula = last MSI + latest quarterly + latest out of cycle patch)
Acceptable: 10.1.0 (Q MSI) > 10.1.2 (Q)
Acceptable: 10.1.0 (Q MSI) > 10.1.1 (Q)
Acceptable: 10.0.0 > 10.0.1 (Q) > 10.0.3 (OOC)
Unacceptable: 10.0.0 > 10.0.1 (Q) > 10.0.3 (OOC) > 10.1.0 (Q MSI)
One more thing. Don't expect that the new AIP will uninstall the old AIP. It's best to remove the old AIP with msiexec.exe /x {GUID} first and then install the new AIP. You can manage the reboot as you wish with either SCCM or MSI command line switches or properties.

SPSS is throwing up error 1327 after I installed Acrobat Pro. Any idea as to why + fix?

I recently installed Acrobat X for one of my users and he is now having an error with his SPSS software. Nothing else was done to his machine, so I beleive this has something to do with Acrobat or some of the other Adobe products I threw on there. This has never happened before and I have done countless installs.
Thank you for your time.

Nevermind. Reinstalling the latest versions of the software fixed this issue. It looks like some files were overwriten and SPSS kept trying to reinstall intself.

When attempting to install Acrobat IX i get the following error "Error 1335" "pcw-cab-acr 11007" saying the file is corrupt. What causes this error and how do I fix it?

Has anyone else found this error?

I have found a temporary solution, allowing the previous version of iTunes (v. 11.1.3 (x64) in my case) to be re-installed. It will allow you to re-establish use of iTunes until the Apple software engineers fix the most recent disasterous upgrade (v. 11.1.4). Please see and follow the procedure in the following article:http://smallbusiness.chron.com/reverting-previous-version-itunes-32590.html The previous version works beautifully.
