Problems installing adobe acrobat

When I try to open up acrobat an error message pops up that says, "unable to find "Adobe pdf" printer or "acrobat distiller" printer" & asks if i want to run in repair mode. how do i fix this?

Have you tried allowing Acrobat to repair itself as it has suggested?  If so do you receive any additional error messages while allowing the installation to repair itself?

  • Problems Installing Adobe Acrobat XI Pro via CreativeCloud

    Hi,
    I am having difficulty in installing Adobe Acrobat XI Pro onto my Windows Vista SP2 machine, via the Creative Cloud platform.  The Adobe Application Manager has installed, and whenever I look through the application list Adobe Acrobat XI Pro is not in there (despite me paying for the year subscription).  Secondly, when attempting to download via the web interface of CreativeCloud the Adobe Application Manager gets brought into view, but still the application does not install or download - and does not present me with any error messages.
    Thoughts please?

    Hi PrepetrolLtd,
    Acrobat XI is not recommended for windows Vista and that is the reason it wont show up in Adobe Application Manager.

  • Problem installing Adobe Acrobat Pro 9

    I have an HP Pavilion dvd6-3033 with Windows 7 Home Premium operating system. Some time ago I purchased and installed the Adobe Creative Suite 5 Web Premium system which included a disc with Adobe Acrobate Pro 9. Everything installed just fine. Recently my hard drive went bad and I had to install a new one. After reinstalling Windows 7 Home Premium I reinstalled the Creative Suite 5 just fine, but the Acrobat Pro 9 installation, after running for a while, produces Error 1311 (Source file not found: F:\Acrobat 9\Data1.cab  Verify the file exists and that you can access it.) I checked the Acrobat9 folder on the installation disc and Data1.cab is there, but apparently the installer for some reason doesn't recognize it. Any suggestions on what to do?

    use the below link:

  • Problems Installing Adobe Acrobat Professional

    Hi,
    I am new to Windows Vista 64. I am trying to install CS3. All of the programs will install except Adobe Acrobat Professional. I get the following error message:
    The file 'Adobe.PDF.dll' on Windows Vista CD-ROM is needed.
    Windows Vista was installed on the computer when I bought it so I don't have a CD. Any suggestions on what I need to do would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

  • Problems installing Adobe acrobat 6.0 Pro on Surface Pro

    I cannot complete the installation of Adobe acrobat 6.0 Pro on Surface Pro. The process stopped and the status bar is about 70%. I cannot close of cancel the process. It is stuck on my computer.

    Is it running Win 8 and is it 32 or 64 bit OS? AA 6 is not listed as compatible with Win8 and you may very likely have to buy AA XI. Sorry, but AA 6 is too old for an upgrade.

  • Problems installing Adobe Acrobat Pro X (language mix-up)

    Hey,
    I have a license for the Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Standard in English. I have no problems whatsoever installing and using InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop. However when I try to open Acrobat (from the install CD I installed the other applications from as well), it asks me to enter the serial number. It then informs me the serial number is not valid for this product (and shows me it tries to activate a German version of Acrobat). I'm really desperate; is there anyone who has had this issue and managed to fix it?
    Thanks so much in advance, Julia

    uninstall any acrobat versions and readers.
    if you have windows, clean Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool - Adobe Labs
    then see if you have any acrobat preference files and remove them, http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/X/pro/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7feb.w .html
    then copy the installation files from your cd to a desktop directory and start your cs5.5 installation from that directory.

    Hi all,
    Sylonious, did you manage to sort this problem out? I have been experiencing similar problems. I think my problem was because I had many different versions of JDKs. I have done a complete re-install. I would be really grateful to you (and anyone else) for help with this problem.
    I have re-installed JSDK1.4.2_03, set the "path" variable to "C:\JSDK1.4.2_03".
    When I compile using "javac" I get an error saying "javac" is not recognised.
    When I compile using "C:\j2sdk1.4.2_03\bin\javac Freq.java" no error is thrown.
    Every time I try to run a java file, I always get the NoClassDefFound error. When run with the -verbose option, files are loaded from C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_03\bin - is this correct?
    I have removed all previous references to java in the registry editor.
    Please help !

    if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/all-adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a problem downloading, 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

  • "there is a problem with adobe acrobat/reader. if it is running please exit and try again. (523.523)

    We are getting the following error "there is a problem with adobe acrobat/reader. if it is running please exit and try again. (523.523)" and a gray screen appears (Image not viewable) with multiple users. We are using Adobe Reader XI (11.0.05) and (11.0.06). The current workaround is to log off the website and log back in. Once the user logs back in, the pdf will appear. However it occurs anywhere from 2-8 times in a day. Anyone else having this issue or know of another workaround? Any suggestion with how to fix? Please help!!

    Uncheck the option for "Enable Protected Mode at startup"
    Restart the Adobe Reader and web browser.

    Hi
    I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
    The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
    This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
    What can I do?
    thank you a lot.

    There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
    - Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
    - Adobe Reader (free)
    Which do you have? And are you a programmer?

  • Motorola Surfboard SBG6590 installation cd says "Problem installing Adobe Air"

    When I attempt to install the software which came on the installation cd for my Motorola Surfboard SBG6590, it gives the following message: "Problem installing Adobe Air. There was a problem installing Adobe Air". After I saw this message the first time, I went to Adobe's site and downloaded air from a browser and it said that air was successfully installed. When I reattempted to install the cd, it gave the same failure message about "Problem installing Adobe Air". I tried uninstalling Adobe Air and reinstalling and I still get the same problem. I have a mac OS x version 10.5.8. The version of air that I downloaded is 2.5.1 for MacOS.

    The script gives the following error: "AppleScript Error. Finder got an error: A privilege violation occurred."
    Script editor displays in the event log:

    do shell script "test -d /Applications/Adobe || mv /Applications/Adobe /Applications/Adobe-Backup > /dev/null 2>&1 &" with administrator privileges
    "Finder got an error: A privilege violation occurred."
    The installation script did not prompt for my administer password, so perhaps that could be the problem?

  • How can I install Adobe Acrobat without installing the browser extensions?

    Hello All,
    I am a computer Technician at a high school and we have very strict browser requirements for different services. We need to use Adobe Acrobat to convert PDF's, and other tasks, and we need to use Chrome to open Adobe Reader files. The issue is that I want my 3 browsers (Chrome, IE, Firefox) to open PDF files using Adobe Reader XI. All my plugin settings are correct to use Adobe Reader to open PDF's, but it either downloads a PDF to the computer, or opens up in the browsers default reader (Chrome does this), or opens up to a blank page with a blank error message. I went into the programs Internet settings for Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat and it's telling me the browser opens them up using Adobe Acrobat (With no option to change the setting). The problem is only solved when I uninstall Adobe Acrobat.Then I am able to open PDF's in Adobe Reader just like I want (but this gets rids of Acrobat). This leads me to believe that when I install Adobe Acrobat, there is a registry key or something that is telling the computer to open PDF's in browsers using Acrobat. My initial question is this: How can I install adobe Acrobat without linking it to the browser. I JUST want Adobe Acrobat as a program installed on the computer.
    Additional Info:
    - I build a computer image and use that image on several computers. This issue persists with all of the computers I installed the image on.
    - I am using Adobe Reader 11 (Now DC, but I am willing to use either) and Adobe Acrobat Pro CS3 (I think it's version 9?)
    Thanks for the help.
    - Charlie
