Unable to install Acrobat Pro 6 Upgrade on Mac Mini single CPU, OS 10.4.5

I have a Mac Mini (1.5 GHz, Intel Core Solo) with 512 mb RAM running OS X (10.4.5)
Unable to install Adobe Acrobat Professional 6 upgrade because I am unable to install earlier version full version (I own Acrobat 4 and 5 full versions). Finalizing install of 6 asks me to "Manually identify prior install", "Search hard drive for prior install", or "Manually locate on orig. CD". None of these options are possible (Version 5 CD is not a drag-and-drop app). How do I work around this?

I tried "Manually select..." but when I insert original CD of Acrobat 5, I'm not able to select it. Version 5 is not a drag and drop install,...i must click on the installer to install 5.

  • I have acrobat pro on my lap top and recently installed acrobat pro on my Mac Mini, but the text recognition function is not working, does anyone have any advice on how to remedy this problem?

    I have acrobat pro on my lap top and recently installed acrobat pro on my Mac Mini, but the text recognition function is not working, does anyone have any advice on how to remedy this problem?

    On my laptop when I open up a pdf file and do a search for a particular
    text phrase it prompts me to run a character analysis.  Whereas on my mac
    mini, when I try to engage the same process it just says it couldn't find
    the phrase and doesn't even try and run a character analysis. I tried
    clicking on the tool bar and the recognize text tab but nothing there seems
    to do anything.
    In trying to figure out the issue on my own I noticed one thing.  I run a
    small law firm in St. Louis and I scan in all my files to which are
    subsequently emailed to my outlook account where I will save them as pdf's
    to their respective folders.  On my laptop when I open up an email from my
    scanner I see the image of a acrobat document next to the attachment
    paperclip symbol.  However, when I open up the same email on my mac mini I
    notice instead of an acrobat file image it shows a Preview file image (the
    program used to open up pdf's before I installed acrobat).
    Hope this helps!
    Sincerely,
    Jonathan McAllister

  • I am unable to install acrobat pro on my windows 8.1 PC.  I have disabled the fire wall and this makes no difference. The install commences, the install screen flashes up then disappears...

    I have also disabled the anti virus software (ESET)...

    Hi malcolml33267653,
    Where did you downloaded the installer from?
    Does the installation throws any exception error or any error code?
    I would recommend you to use Acrobat Cleaner tool on your system( Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool - Adobe Labs) and try installing acrobat using this Link : https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html

  • Unable to Install Windows 8 on 2011 Mac Mini

    I'm having problems installing Windows 8 on my 2011 Mac Mini.
    Obviously I've gone through the BootCamp Assistant, partitioned my drive and then rebooted and started the Windows 8 install process. I can go through the initial bits Region, entering my product key but when I go to choose the partition where I want to install Windows 8 there is a yellow triangle with the 'Windows cannot be installed to this volume' message when the BOOTCAMP partition is highlighted. When I click more info I get the following pop up messages:
    'Windows cannot be installed to this disk - The selected disk has an MBR Partition table. On EFI systems Windows can only be installed to GPT disks.
    Windows cannot be installed to this disk - This computers hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disks controller is enabled in the computers BIOS system.
    Any Ideas as to why I cannot proceed with the install or why Windows 8 is not accepting the prepared partition.
    The installed HDD is a Toshiba MK5065GSXF Revision GV108B (Apple original)
    Regards
    John

    Sounds like you have another device connected which is using GPT/GUID partition and that is stopping you.
    For some it means removing or disconnecting a drive or external device.
    This has existed since Vista days.
    Don't connect USB device until afterwards when you need the drivers, or format the drivers disk not just FAT or exFAT but as Windows partition (in DU under Partitions: Options where you can select GUID or Windows).

  • Acrobat Pro XI for Mac crashed and now says trial is over

    Earlier today I downloaded and installed Acrobat Pro XI for Mac on my MacBook Pro Retina 15-inch early 2013 running OS X 10.9.4. I compared two documents. While skimming the comparison document, Acrobat seemed unstable, e.g. when I tried to select text to copy Acrobat would freeze and show the  spinning pinwheel for a minute or two. When I finished skimming the comparison, I closed the file, and clicked "don't save," it crashed. When I restarted Acrobat, it told me the evaluation period was over.

    Hi rlauriston,
    It is unlikely for an application crash to eliminate the trial days usage.
    Did you check with a different Admin user account?

  • Can't install Acrobat PRO in CC using CS6 (mac)

    Hi Community,
    In my Company we plan to upgrade to adobe CC (2014) on macs.
    In the first step we try to use CC and CS6 together on some macs to ensure it's working.
    But since the installation of CC Acrobat PRO X (from CS6) asks for the licence key again when starting.
    Unfortunaltly the problem still exists after reinstalling the CS6 package.
    In the CC i have no option to install Acrobat PRO XI.
    From the Adobe support I've got the hint to delete a file called opm.db in users/Library-folder but this did not help.
    Does anyone know how I can fix this?
    thanks

  • I cannot install Adobe Acrobat pro on my mac running Yosemite.  Why?

    I was able to install Acrobat Reader, but when I tried to upgrade to Acrobat Pro on my mac, the Acrobat intaller just hangs there indefinitely.  I am running Yosemite.  What is the deal?

    Hi kctfsu,
    We would require the install logs to analyse the failue cause.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Select
    /var/log ▹ install.log
    from the hierarchical list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar. Then select the messages from the last installation or update attempt, starting from the time when you initiated it. If you're not sure when that was, start over and note the time. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.

  • I just installed Acrobat Pro for Mac.  I would like to set it up to go into the regular program home

    I just installed Acrobat Pro for Mac.  I would like to set it up to go into the regular program home page (just like the windows based) instead of the "getting started" window.

    Good day,
    Choose Acrobat > Preferences.  Click 'General'.  Uncheck the 'Show welcome screen' option under Application Startup.
    Please let me know if you have any questions.
