Unable to install Adobe Reader X or XI for Window 7

I accidentally uninstall the Reader which was exist in my computer for a long while. And when I was trying to install it again, it show "setup has detected that you already have a more functional product installed." What exactly is that mean? And for the XI version, I got another interesting message as image attached. Any solution?

You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:
http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • Unable to install Adobe elearning suite 1.0 in windows 7 pro environment

    I have spent two days trying to re-install my elearning suite 1.0 on a new computer.  I have called Adobe support three times.  The first time I got cut off after 25 minutes on line.  The second time I got cut off after 40 minutes on line.  On the third try, after over an HOUR on hold, I made it to a person and I told her my problem.  She was quiet for a second or two and then I heard the dial tone.  If anyone from Adobe support is lurking on this forum, shame on you.
    I purchased the very expensive Adobe ELearning Suite 1.0 less than a year ago and installed in on my Windows XP Thinkpad machine.  It was a painful install.  I use Adobe Presenter 7 and Adobe Acrobat Pro.  Thats it.  Nothing else.   
    Unfortunately, my Thinkpad died and I have purchasaed a new Thinkpad -- a W510 Windows 7 Pro and 4 g ram.  Should not be an issue.
    It will not even get past the starting gate.  I get an auto lang error and then conversion data file.
    When I the error I see a similar error for a different product, however the error is for a language mismatch between the operationg system and adobe.  This is not my problem.  I have verified that both products are same language -- jeeze, English.
    At this point the only option I can see if to purchase the very expensive Adobe elearning suite 2 -- but guess what?  It too comes with Adobe Presenter 7.  Why should I have to pay another 1000 for the same thing I already own.
    Has anyone else had this issue who might be able to provide advice?  At this point I am so frustrated and irritated by Adobe I could scream.
    I would also be very receptive of recommendations for a replacement for Presenter --
    Very kind regards,
    Stephanie D

    I have installed Adobe Reader 11.0.07 for Mac OS 10.9.3. Have asked this question numerous time without results. The problems I am having are: I cannot scroll using the side slider on downloaded PDF files, nor can I fill in fillable files. Also, and this is extremely irritating, I cannot re-initialize the same file or initialize and another PDF file after I have initialized the first file. If you cannot help please let me know if should use an earlier  version of Reader or find anther company that has the appropriate software.

    Perhaps you missed that you started a discussion at I have OS 10.9.2 and have downloaded latest version of Reader 11. I can no longer fill in form or scroll using the side bar. and you did not respond to the last post there.

  • Unable to install Adobe Reader 8.1.2 Help!!!

    Help Please I had Adobe Reader 8 on my Laptop Os WinsXP but it was corrupt so I unstalled it and I`m trying ( Approx 8 tries ) to install Adobe Reader 8.1.2 but all I get when it`s trying to Install is a dialog box that pops up saying
    Internal Error 2753. Updater api_NON_OPT and then says Adobe Reader 8.1.2 setup Failed.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in Advance
    Alex

    I can help if you gor error 1402 about not having permission to update reg sub-key MSFS under:
    HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Run/OptionalComponents
    Logged into my own account, I could see no sub-keys under Run even though I have Administrator rights. I logged in under the Administrator Account (the one under which Adobe was originally installed). Now I could see all sub-keys.
    I installed Adobe Reader 8.1.2 successfully.
    I rebooted and logged back in under my own account and can now see all sub-keys.
    I suspect 2 things. Either my registry was corrupt and I lost the sub-keys (dont think so) or an update from say Adobe Reader 8.1.1 to 8.1.2 can initially only be done under the account that did the original install (I hope this is not the case). Good luck.

  • Unable to install Adobe Reader 10 or 11

    I was trying to open a PDF from government website.
    After I opened the file it says that I need a higher version of adobe reader to see the content.
    So I went to Adobe website and tried to update my reader.
    During the installation an error occurred saying that I already have a more functional version installed.
    I then tried again to open that PDF, still telling me to update my reader, so I went to add/remove programs and uninstalled my Adobe Reader XI
    Now the serious problem starts, After the uninstall, I DON'T have a reader nor acrobat installed on my system.
    But when I tried to download and install Adobe Reader 11 (install_reader11_en_gtbd_awe_aih.exe) at 79% it shows an error and returns this message:
    "Windows Installer does not permit updating of managed advertised products. At least one feature of the product must be installed before applying the update."
    Similar situation for Adobe Reader 10 (install_reader10_en_mssd_aaa_aih) stops at 79%, returns another message:
    "Setup had detected that you already have a more functional product installed. Setup will now terminate."
    Both process showing "Downloading" before 75%, and "Installing" at 76%, then error occurs at 79%
    I checked for other Adobe products I have installed on my machine, they are:
    AIR
    Audition 3.0
    Flash Player 14 ActiveX
    Photoshop CS5.1
    Shockwave Player 12.0
    I've never used AIR so I uninstalled it as well, but problem remains.
    Now I can't open any PDF on my system, and I don't have a Adobe Reader installed. It's either telling me I have a more functional version or I need at least one feature of the product installed before applying the update.
    What can I do now? I don't want to re-install all Adobe products. Hoping for a solution.

  • Unable to install Adobe reader Patch

    Hi,
    kindly help me on below issue..
    I am not able to install Adobe reader patch file it is installing some systems but maximum of systems are getting failed. Here below I have attached the log file and the installation batch file whatever I am using.
    The Command I am using through batch file.
    @echo off
    "%~dp0AdbeRdrSecUpd11008.msp" /quiet /passive /q /norestart

    1642 = "The upgrade cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer
    and that you have the correct upgrade."
    Adobe reader updates are *not* cumulative and only apply to specific versions and patch levels. Adobe has tables on their enterprise support website that detail what patches are applicable to what versions. Here's the one for Reader 10 (can't find the one
    for Reader 11 but I'm sure it exists).

  • Unable to install Adobe Reader 8

    Been trying for the last few hours to install Adobe Reader 8 but it does not work. I get the installer downloaded but then when I open it it says "Adobe Reader could not install correctly". It's driving me nuts..
    Pls help....
    JCBang, Geneva

    I don't think I have ever had so much difficulty and had to jump through so many hoops when installing an app than I did when I installed Adobe Reader 8. And when I did install it, it broke Safari's online displaying of PDF's. Even when I uninstalled Reader, Safari was still broken. It took me quite a bit of searching and asking around to get that fixed.
    So unless you have some compelling reason to use Reader over Apple's built-in Preview program, I would avoid Reader 8 like the plague.
    Sorry if that was not the answer you were looking for!

  • I am unable to install Adobe Reader

    I am on a new PC, Dell Inspiron 660, 64 bit, Windows 8.1
    I use only Windows Protection Programs with standard default setting (no third party products).
    I am able to successfully download graphics, video, and other program updates from other companies, but not Adobe Reader.
    I start here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/
    I click on the "Install Now" button
    and I get kicked out to here: http://www.adobe.com/
    When I search Programs and Features through control panel, the only Adobe I find is Flash Player and Shockwave Player.
    Is there a reliable link to follow that will actually let me download Adobe Reader?
    Many thanks for any suggestions offered.

    Assuming that you want to install the English version of Adobe Reader 9.3, download this installer
    http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.3/enu/AdbeRdr930_en_US.msi
    Run it, and once the installer is initialized, you will be presented with this panel
