Trouble Updating Acrobat Pro to v9.2

Acrobat 9 .1 was working fine on my computer.  I received the download of the update to v9.2, which appeared to be installed correctly.  However, when I ran the program to create a pdf from a doc file I received the error message that there was a "missing PDF Maker File.  Do you want to run the installer in Repair mode"
I did this and after a lot of screen activity the process was completed without any further error messages but I could still not create a pdf file and received the same error message.
I thought I would uninstall V9.2 (which showed in the list in Control Panel/Add Remove programs).  Clicking on Remove came up with option to Repair.  Selected this and a "process" was completed.  When this finished with no error messages I rebooted and checked the program but it still failed to produce a pdf with the same error.
This time I selected Uninstall so I could have a fresh go.  Did this, ran Windows Installer Cleanup but there was nothing there.  I rebooted and reinstalled v9.0 from the DVD.  All went smoothly but I received the same error when I ran the installed program (I made no attempts to install any of the updates of the version on the disc) it still produced the failure the create a PDF with the same error message.
Any advice on what to try now, please?

Problem solved.  I established that I was only having problems with MS Word doc files.  Fortunately I have a laptop with both Word and Acrobat installed and the problem was only on one of the computers.  On one of them there was a disabled plug in for Adobe Acrobat.  I enabled it ans all works fine.

    Hello Mike,
    Thank you very much for the link, i would update this way now. But i still wonder how can i fix the problem so i can use Adobe Updater with all Adobe apps. I think that Adobe Updater is very usefull because you dont have to check the website for updates of the differents apps.
    Thanks a lot,

  • Can't update Acrobat Pro 9.50 to 9.5.1

    Tried updating Acrobat Pro 9.5.0. to 9.5.1 through auto update and downloading the update. Both give an error to reinstall the app because something has changed since the last update. Something to do with plugins. Tried to repair Acrobat installation and remove Safari plugin also. Both don't work.
    At this point I don't want to re-install Acrobat 9. I get the feeling i'm going to have more problems. Also why would I have to reinstall the program? What is that all about? This has happened before while trying to update a version and I get the failure and reinstall. Anyone have any suggestions.

    You could try creating a new account using the instructions here http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/404/kb404927.html. Update Acrobat from the new account and see if the patching works now.
    Also, could you please provide the log files for the failing patch. To obtain the log , follow the following steps:
    1.  Clear the contents of /user/library/adobe/logs folder
    2. Open Console, located in the  Applications- > Utilities folder.
    3. Update Acrobat to generate the error message.
    4. Check the console for error messages and save console log file
    5. Go to /user/library/adobe/logs and share the patch log file

  • Cannot update Acrobat Pro to 9.3.2 from 9.3.1

    I am attempting to update Acrobat Pro to 9.3.2 from 9.3.1. Downloading the update, I am met with this:
    The patch has failed because the application has been modified since it was originally installed (for example, plug-ins may have been disabled). 
    Please go to the Adobe support website for more information regarding how to re-enable disabled components prior to installing the patch.  Or, you can uninstall and reinstall the application, and then reinstall the patch.
    Where do I find this "information" on the Adobe website? If Vague is an island, Abobe must be on it.
    Any solutions others have found?
    Uninstall and reinstall is a solution? Been down this road 16 months ago and it was a full afternoon on the phone with tech support in India. If this is the only solution offered, I am fine at the current crap unsafe version from Adobe. Unless of course Adobe is prepared to pay me for my time.

    I am a sys admin and have always had problems with Acrobat for many many year. I have spent 3 hours on the phone with tech support. Pushed out a new build with nothing else on except the base OS and still fails in the update and tried everything and yes im not a standard user, this is my job i build macs day in day out in 30 minutes flat, scripting, packaging the lot.
    You can see in the log it tries to download an update with an incorrect url http:/ when it should be http:// this is really terrible and just shows there is no UAT at all. Yesterday another tech support just told me for another full suite that just dragging the apps to the Trash is a normal uninstall method. The tech support guy today told me Acrobat comes with all CS5 product  but thats incorrect because it doesn't come with Production Premium!
    Adobe i believe your Acrobat team is separate from other teams and i understand why you have had to break it off from the suite but  come on this has been going on for so many years now its beyond a joke. You should fix it once and for all or at least get version x working with combined updaters like other vendor and offer free upgrades from 9 to 10.
    What is the point going on about all these extra features and security fixes if no one can even update the product! Spend hours on the phone with untrained staff with poor product knowledge and waste every ones time because i am a very experienced sys admin and get sick to death of Acrobat updates which rarely ever work!
    Also the system requirements for the update only goes to OS 10.6.3 and even the latest 9.4.1 only goes to OS 10.6.4 So even if every one can some how get i working its not even going to work on a 10.6.5 OS... pathetic so stuck no one listening, tech support don't listen. We just need an alternative good competitor then i am not buying or dealing with Adobe ever again!

  • Trying to update Acrobat Pro

    I received a notice that I needed to update Acrobat Pro (my OS is Windows XP Professional) and tried updating and the install got hung up.  I tried killing all the apps to clear it out, but still get a message that an install is already running when I try to update Acrobat Pro, but I can't find any other apps that are running the install.  Can someone assist me?  I even tried going into the Control Panel to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat, but got hte same error message that an install was running.
    Help!

    Terminate the processes:
    Working with your Operating System’s Tools
    Run the Acrobat Cleaner Tool and reinstall from scratch.

  • Cannot update Acrobat Pro

    Hi,
    When I try to update Acrobat Pro to the newest minor version (9.3.3), I cannot complete the operation due to a dialog box that appears in the background, and cannot be moved to the foreground. To complete the operation I should click a button in this dialog box, but it is impossible and I must force-quit the updater.
    This bug was already in the previous version of Acrobat, and despite I and others reported it, it is still there. Maybe someone knows how to solve the problem without waiting for a fix?
    Paolo
    As you see, the lower dialog box stays in the background (and cannot be moved forward).

    I'm having a similar problem.  I did check in Adobe support and could find nothing related to my issue.  In Fact, several support search responses directed me to this forum.
    When I try to update, at some point in the repair I get a dialogue box that is titled "Repair Setup."  It just sits there, won't go away won't let me check or uncheck anything in the box or move it.  From this discussion I got the suggestion and tried running the repair command under the help menu.  This at least lets me check of uncheck the checkbox and click cancel or continue.  This box asks whether I want or don't want the Acrobat plug-in in Safari.  I definitely don't want it there.  When I uncheck the box it says it has removed it, but the dialogue box stays in place in the center of my screen until I reboot the computer.  If I re-run repair Acrobat, it once again lets me check or uncheck and tell it to cancel or continue.  So, I tried telling it it could install the plug-in.  It then told me I had to quit Safari.  So, I quit Safari and tried again, but it keeps telling me I have to quit Safari even though I have already quit Safari.
    This is hugely frustrating.  It makes me want to make sure I never try to upgrade Acrobat again.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,

  • Immediately after updating Acrobat Pro XI to the latest version, the software no longer displays imags in pdf docs.

    Immediately after updating Acrobat Pro XI to the latest version, the software no longer displays images in pdf docs.  All the boxes where images are supposed to be are solid grey.  Old documents that worked are no longer displayed correctly and new documents I make do not display images.  All grey boxes.  Worked fine before the update.  Suggestions?

    Hi precious_star,
    Could you please let me know what version of OS are you using.
    Open Acrobat and go to "Edit > Preferences > Page Display" and check whether 'Show large images' option is checked.
    Is this issue specific for one PDF?
    If possible, please share the file with me via email so that I can also check at my end.
    I have sent you a message with my contact id details.
    Hope to get your response.
    Regards,

  • Adobe Updater wants to update Acrobat Pro X 10.1.1 to 10.1.1 every day!

    For the past several weeks, dily (and somtime more than once per day) the Adobe Updater says that it wants to update Acrobat Pro X to version 10.1.1. But that's the version that's installed. I keep cancelling it but it's an annoyance that pops up every day and downloads the update (or seems to) every day.
    Can you help me make it stop?
    I've tried letting it do the update from 10.1.1 to 10.1.1 but it gets partially through the process, says that Acrobat has already been updated, and rolls back the changes it made. Yet tomorrow it tells me the same thing.
    Help! Please.
    Thanks.

    Good day TechByter,
    Unfortunately it looks like you'll probably need to uninstall Acrobat and reinstall from scratch if you're getting an Error 1328 when trying to patch Acrobat: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/update-errors-acrobat-reader-windows.html

  • Shared Review Deadline Dates do not Update - Acrobat Pro. 9

    I recently started two shared reviews in Acrobat Pro 9.0.0 When I attempt to extend the deadline dates on both it updates me in the tracker, but when anyone else in the reveiw attempts to add more comments they are told the review has expried.
    I am the initiator of the reviews, and acording to Adobe I should be able to change the deadline date in the tracker and have it update the other reviewers so they can contine with their reviews. It does extend my deadline, but not anyone elses.
    Does this function not work, should I set all shared reviews with "No Deadline"?
    I am running Windows XP Pro, with 3 gig of memory, on an IBM Think Center.
    The file is on a network shared folder where everyone who is reviewing has read/write rights.
