Reinstall Acrobat X Pro from CS6 suite?

I already have Acrobat X Pro installed (I bought the program separately a while ago) and I just now purchased the CS6 suite (which comes with Acrobat X Pro). Do I install the CS6 suite without Acrobat, or do I uninstall the standalone Acrobat that's on my Macbook Pro and reinstall from the Acrobat that's on the DVD? Does it even make a difference? If I could leave the installed app in place without a problem, I'd much prefer that.
Most grateful if someone could let me know.
Thanks in advance!

In terms of functionality it makes no difference, the programs are identical and you can leave the existing one installed.
The only situation where it would matter is if you want to move Acrobat onto another computer (separate from CS6) - you could deactivate the standalone copy and register it on the new machine, then use your CS6 license to install the bundled copy in its place.

  • Reinstalling Acrobat 8 Pro from CS3 Design Premium, asking for Photoshop Elements 6 CD??

    Hi.
    I use a Macbook Pro with Leopard OS X version 10.5.8, 2.6 Ghz Intel Core Duo, $ GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM.
    I use Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium which came with Acrobat 8 Professional. Now, for a while I've been having issues updating Acrobat because it said it had been modified blah blah and something about plugins being disabled, so to rectify reinstall and run updates. I've seen alot of people on forums with this same issue.
    For a long time I ignored this as the program was still working, but today it urked me enough to unistall (which I did by dragging it from the applications to trash) and try to reinstall.
    So I tried. Put the CD in, selected only Acrobat 8 Pro for reinstallation, all went well until it asked me to put in the Photoshop Element 6 CD.... which I never had. Although the program does come on the CD. So i'm left confused, without acrobat pro and wishing i had never uninstalled!
    I hope this makes some sort of sense. Any help would be much appreciated!

    I resorted to using the live chat feature that Adobe have on the website. We found that once everything was uninstalled and then just reinstalled Acrobat alone, I wasn't asked to insert the Photoshop Elements 6 CD to continue and everything was fine. No problems. But, when I tried to then reinstall the rest of the suite, it asked for the CD.
    So, the way to avoid it asking for the CD was to uninstall CS3 Design Premium completely and then reinstall all the programs. And everything seems to be working fine.
    Maybe this was an obvious solution, but I didn't want to risk uninstalling all the programs only to be asked for a non-existent CD when reinstalling.
    Anyway, hopefully someone else will find this helpful.

  • No LiveCycle Upgrade if upgraded Acrobat X Pro from Creative Suite?

    Hi,
    I bought Acrobat X Pro as part of Creative Suite 5.5. I saw in the FAQ for Acrobat Pro that if you owned a license for Acrobat X Pro and upgraded to Acrobat XI Pro, you could get a one time upgrade for LiveCycle Designer. I upgraded to Acrobat XI Pro, but was told that I'm not eligible for an upgrade because I have CS5.5. Was anyone able to get an upgrade that got Acrobat X Pro in a creative suite? Why wouldn't my upgrade to Acrobat XI Pro count (and I did get an upgrade, not a new Acrobat XI)?
    Any clarification would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hello,
    You can try re-installing Acrobat 9 Pro or Acrobat X Pro individually.
    After it is installed you will have to Deactivate the Complete Suite by launching any CS4/5 Applications. Click on Help > Deactivate.
    Then Close and Re-launch the CS 4 / 5 Application, re-launch it and activate with the serial number.
    Close and re-launch the Application CS 4 / 5 applications, click on Help > "Make sure you see Deactivate", It means the product is activated.
    Now launch Acrobat and accept license. Done !
    It should be up and fine.

  • Reinstall Acrobat 9 Pro from CS4

    Hello all.
    I know this is to do with Adobe and not an Apple product
    but the help messageboards at Adobe have been useless and I've had
    good experiences with the help on here—so I hope someone can still
    help, despite the misfiling of my issue.
    Basically the version of Acrobat 9 which came with CS4 (iMac)
    hasn't been able to update for a good while and upon researching
    the reasons for this it looks like the best diagnostic is to reinstall.
    But I need help understanding how to go about uninstalling and then
    re-installing from the CS discs?
    Can this be done? Can you reinstall just the one program from the
    whole CS lot?
    I've looked for help pages online but they have also been useless
    and just confusing.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ben.

  • How to reinstall Acrobat X Pro? I purchased Acrobat X at a retail staore and Acrobat X Pro from the Adobe Website.

    I just installed a Solid State Hard-drive on my computer and am now looking for a way to reinstall Acrobat X Pro that I purchased from the Adobe Website. I purchased Acrobat X from a retail store.
    I dont need to install Acrobat X from the Disc before I install Acrobat X Pro I purchased from the website do I? And how do I install Acrobat X Pro anyway? 

    Hi Sonoma707,
    There's no difference between the installer on the disk and that available online.
    You can download Acrobat 10 Pro from : http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html
    and use the purchased serial number to activate the software.

  • Recently reinstalled Acrobat 9 pro. Got serial number from adobe. Now keep getting the message upgrade. No 9 in dropdown. Then tells me to enter serial or only have 22 days left. Reinstalled 3 times.

    recently reinstalled Acrobat 9 pro. Got serial number from adobe. Now keep getting the message upgrade. No 9 in dropdown. Then tells me to enter serial or only have 22 days left. Reinstalled 3 times.
    Can anyone help please?

    Sorry that you got such a hassle. Try this. I don't have Acrobat 9 per se, but I have the TCS2 and found the following.
    Run Regedit (all the serious warning apply here. Look but don't touch).
    Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHNINE->SOFTWARE->Adobe->Repair->Adobe Acrobat->9.0->IOD Look under the entry under SERIAL.
    Maybe it works maybe it doesn't. But it might help.

  • Installing Adobe Acrobat XI Pro from CD and set up asks to insert disk

    I'm trying to install Adobe Acrobat XI Pro from a CD.  I insert the CD and I follow the set up wizard until I get to the point of installing the software and it gives me the option to "Update".  I click this button and it begins to install but then a window appears with a message instructing me to insert the disc.  I already have the disc inserted so I click the "OK" button, but the window will not go away and the installation does not continue.  If I click the "Cancel" button then it tells me that the installation was interrupted.  What do I need to do to get past this?

    The problem was probably the trial version. Since you already had Acrobat installed, the installer did not know what to do. All you needed to do was open the trial version and activate it and you would have been done. The route you took is fine, but takes longer. Glad you found a solution that worked for you. If you have problems, your first step should be to do a repair and not a reinstall. That seems to come up a fair amount and thought you might find the repair aspect useful.

  • Problem reinstalling Acrobat X Pro

    I am trying to reinstall Acrobat X Pro after getting a new hard drive. I deactivated it on the computer I used in the interim before trying to reinstall. I had no problems a week ago but this time after all the files load the install stops for several minutes and then an Error 1305 is displayed asking that I verify that Data1.cab is available and that I can access it. I can see that file name is the last one moved when all of the files have installed. Is there a way to access a download for Acrobat X Pro now that version XI has been released? If not, how do I proceed?

    You can download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
    Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site or else the download will not work properly.
