  • Downloaded Acrobat Pro 7 from Adobe site, won't install, errors out, what do I do now?

    I had Acrobat Pro 7 on my old XP machine. I bought a new Win7 machine. Went to install Acrobat on it from the old CD, with original serial no. Wouldn't activate, said "activation server not available". Went to the Adobe site, that error page linked to a download of an .exe for Acrobat Pro 7 not requiring activation, providing password. So yeah, I thought . . . .Did the whole thing, but the install errors out, every time, and offers no workaround. So I am stuck.  Error popups attached. Any guidance appreciated. I bought the original program, I'm legit.
    The error messages are the usual opaque stuff, I have no idea how I would verify that I have access to a directory that the installer just now created on my hd . . . Why wouldn't I?
    I REALLY really need the Adobe pdf printer driver for all my apps, particularly Sibelius, PDF995 drops things . . . .

    OK, thanks both, yes I have 64-bit so there goes that reliable printer.
    HOWEVER, the URL that 2.Bill gave me is exactly where I downloaded their exe from, the one that *won't install. If you read my post, I am looking for how to make that installer work; I found the folder listed in both error messages, but neither of the referenced files are there, only a similarly named .dll.
    And when I go to delete the entire Acrobat 7 folder so I can start over (I did uninstall it after my install from disk that wouldn't activate), the system tells me I do NOT have access to delete it, I need permission from SYSTEM. But I am the only user on my new PC and as far as I know I have admin rights.
    I waded into the Security settings for the folder, but the system won't let me change them. This is . . . counterintuitive . . .
    I am out of my depth.
    Anyone else have any ideas?
    Thanks for listening,

  • Problem downloading pdf's from Adobe site

    Hello:
    First of all, thank you very much for your time and help in troubleshooting this issue. The issue is as follows: I downloaded Acrobat Reader 9 and it is successfully installed in my applications folder on my Mac. I am trying to download some pdf's from Adobe's Visual Design curriculum. Every time I attempt to click on these links, I get a redirect to install Acrobat Reader 9. It is already installed. I should be able to directly view the pdf but I keep getting this window to download Acrobat 9. I am not sure why I cannot access these documents. I did successfully read one but I haven't been able to read the other five that I tried. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions on how I can troubleshoot this issue, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks for your support.

    I also had problems with Adobe Reader 933 on my Mac. I found this info (below).
    I deleted and re-installed the Adobe PDF Viewer plugin several
    times...eventually something connected. Reader now works, even with the Adobe
    plugin installed.
    I don't know why or how, but that's OK with me.
    ...hope this helps,

    Configuring Acrobat to display PDF files in Safari
    Drag the Acrobat application folder from the CD (or disk image) to the
    Applications folder to install Acrobat. The first time you start Acrobat you
    will be prompted to accept the end user licence agreement (EULA) and register
    Acrobat. After you accept the EULA, Acrobat runs a Self-healing procedure which
    checks for any Acrobat components that need to be installed in other
    applications. The self-healing process installs the Adobe PDFViewer plug-in
    file. The AdobePDFViewer.plugin file is the main file used by Acrobat to view
    PDF files in the Safari browser on Mac OS X is the Adobe PDFViewer.plugin; this
    file is installed in the Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder.
    If you updated or reinstalled your copy of Safari in order to view PDF files,
    then do the following:
         1. Completely remove the old version of Safari.
         2. Install the latest version of Safari.
         3. Remove the Adobe PDFViewer.plugin from the Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder.
         4. In Acrobat run Help > Detect And Repair and choose Adobe PDFViewer.
    The first time you start Acrobat or Adobe Reader 8 on Mac OS X, it will
    automatically install itself as the default PDF viewer for Safari. In order to
    turn this off, start Acrobat or Adobe Reader, go to Preferences > Internet and
    uncheck the "Display PDF in Browser" option. This will cause the PDF to display
    inside the Safari window using its native PDF viewer.
    Known issues
    The following issues have been noted:
    When you upgrade from Adobe Reader or Acrobat from 7 to 8 on a Mactel
    machine, PDF files no longer show in the Safari window. Instead a large Acrobat
    or Adobe Reader icon displays in the middle of the Safari window. This is caused
    by running Safari under Rosetta; Acrobat and Adobe Reader 8 will not show PDF
    files in Safari run under Rosetta, whereas Acrobat and Adobe Reader 7 shows PDFs
    in Safari only under Rosetta. To work around this, you have to turn off Rosetta
    for Safari, or start Acrobat or Acrobat Reader and go to Preferences > Internet
    and turn off Display PDF In Browser; PDF files will be viewed in Safari using
    the Mac OS X native PDF viewing engine after this.
    When you upgrade Adobe Reader or Acrobat from 7 to 8, PDF files no longer
    show in other non-Safari browser windows. Instead a large Acrobat or Reader icon
    displays in the middle of the browser window. This is because the PDF viewing is
    not supported for any WebKit-based applications other than Safari. Work around
    this by starting Acrobat or Adobe Reader, and choosing Preferences > Internet
    and turning off Display PDF In Browser.
    Self-healing
    If the AdobePDFViewer files are deleted, then they will be self-healed after you
    start Acrobat again after the files were deleted. You can also fix Safari
    manually by choosing Help > Repair Acrobat Installation.

    I bought and legally own PS CS3. Installed on a desktop and the machine died completely. Downloaded a trial of CS3 from Adobe site. Went to activate and said too many activations. Activate over the phone. EXCEPT Adobe does not handle activation issues over the phone. Adobe doesn't care about their older products - they don't care that I spent hundreds of dollars for CS3. This is truly disgusting corporate behavior. Is there anything I can do? We aren't all rich photographers. I paid a great deal of money for this product. Is it now useless?Thank you,

  • Lightroom download from Adobe site stops after 327mB instead of 744MB. Can someone help?

    lightroom download from Adobe site stops after 327mB instead of 744MB. Can someone help?

    try a different browser and/or different wired connection and/or a download manager.
    or
    if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here: New Adobe Lightroom 6 (CC) Direct Download Links – Free Trials | ProDesignTools  or  New Adobe Lightroom 5: Direct Download Links + Difference vs. LR4 | ProDesignTools or Direct Download Links for Lightroom 3 and Photoshop Elements 8 | ProDesignTools
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies. 
    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com). 
    failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

  • I downloaded a plug-in from this site and it's posting for me on FB. Please jelp me delete.

    I downloaded a plug-in from this site to change the look of my FB profile:
    [http://www.cuvce.com/download/update-fb1.php?h=eNortjI3sVKqSS4tS07VS87PrTHRM0gyNKpJS0oyNEESzigpKVA1dlQ1cgOi8vJyvbTE5NSk_PxssKyhkaWlmYGZkaWJkjVcMHPaGoM, Change Facebook profile ]
    It has since began to post on each of my friends profiles as if it is a wonderful idea and it's not. Please help me delete it. It is not coming up as an application. It also utilized Firefox as a supporter or used its logo along with its promotion. It downloaded Bing as a toolbar as well.

    That sounds like an unusual problem. Did it install as an Extension, or as a Plugin? Check in the Addons Manager, and check to see where it appears. If it appears in the Plugins area, then you can disable the plugin, killing its ability to do anything. If it is an Extension, it will be under the Extension section of the Addon Manager. Select to Uninstall and then allow it to do what needs to be done to remove it from your system. If nothing else works, you could try creating a new profile in Firefox and using it instead.
    For more information about using the Firefox Profile Manager, I suggest you read [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing%20profiles this] article on the Mozilla Support zone. While it does state that features such as the Profile Manager are for advanced users and developers, it can also be used in situations where an addon installs itself and you have difficulty removing it from a profile.
    I suggest you open a program such as Notepad on Windows (or TextEdit on Mac OS X), and then note down the Extensions and Themes you make the most use of when browsing the internet. Generally, addons such as AdBlock Plus will rank highly on a list such as this, and they tend to be the first extensions I install.
    If you do decide you want to customize your Facebook interface in the future, did you know there are several ways to do so with extensions for Firefox? Using [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stylish/ Stylish] and [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/greasemonkey/ Greasemonkey], as well as their respective sites (Userstyles and Userscripts, respectively) can allow you to find some methods for tweaking your Facebook profile. Note that these customizations are local to you, as are the ones you initially attempted to install. In other words, they are only visible on your computer.
    For example, if you were to customize your Facebook on your PC, and then use a friend's computer, you would not see the customizations, even if they were using Firefox as well. This means you can have your Facebook profile how you want it, without making it harder for others to see. I hope this is of help, and thanks for using Firefox!

    befor downloading firefox i play games on facebook and now i cant play these games , it asks me to download flashplayer and i have done so but still cant play them

    You are downloading the Flash installer, which I think itself downloads another installer, which may again download something else that has to run. Adobe's installer is one of the worst pieces of software on the PLANET.
    That said, the problem is that you are not actually running the installer and letting it update Flash. Doing so will force you to quit Safari in the process.
    Go look for whatever Adobe downloaded to your Downloads folder and run it.

    You haven't actually asked a question, but as stated you should only download Flash Player directy from Adobe.
    Nor have you said what version of OS X and Safari you are running.
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.0.1.152 is for Lion.
    * Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html  and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
