Uninstall problem in attempt to fix Acrobat8 Pro with reinstall

Oops.
I've created a problem with Acrobat Professional 8 by trying to install a pdf splitting plug-in.
In fact I've tried two plug-ins:
The first was ARTS PDF Split & Merge Lite which I have used successfully with Acrobat Pro 7; when this failed to work I looked for another and found PDF Lab, which I think may have caused Acrobat to give up the ghost.
Having messed up Acrobat Professional 8 with these two attempts, I need to reinstall, but find that I can't uninstall as my Mac (with Leopard 10.5.2 loaded) now doesn't recognize Acrobat 8 Pro.
On trying to open the application I get the message:
'You cannot open AA8 because it is not supported on this architecture'
What's the best advice for me?
I have a CD and serial number. But how do I ensure a safe reinstall without first uninstalling?
Should I attempt to reinstall from the CD without first uninstalling?
Should I download the latest version of Acrobat and install that way using my serial number?
I'm a bit clueless on what to do for the best at this point, so any help would be much appreciated before blundering into more problems
Thanks,
Mel

    I updated my MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion and now it is slow in starting up and loads a number of probrams. How can I fix the problem?

    Have you tried starting in Safe Mode and see if the slowness still occurs?
    Restart holding the "shift" key.
    (Expect it to take longer to start this way because it runs a directory check first.)
    If this works look in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login items and delete any third party login items (-), you can always add them back with the (+). Also look in /Library/Startup Items. Nothing is put in that folder by default, so anything in there is yours.
    Reboot normally and test.

    You don't delete a file, you have to delete a folder. Is that what you did?
    If you deleted the folder specified above, and you still get the message, then it's the wrong folder. Use your operating system's search function and find ALL folders on ALL disks whose name ends with Previews.LRDATA, delete each one found, and then try opening Lightroom.

    "Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit. Lightroom will attempt to fix this problem the next time it lauches". What do I do? I get the msg each time I try to open it.

    It isn't a file, it's a folder. It will have the same name as your catalog, but will have the extension data. It will be in the same folder along with your catalog. If you need to use the search feature to search for *.lrdata.

    I get the following window on loading Lightroom 5.7 -

    Lightroom will attempt to fix this problem next time it launches.
    I have tried several restarts, without success. Also reinstalled Lightroom; no joy
    Any suggestions?

    Using your system browser (Windows Explorer or Finder), open the folder that contains your catalog. In Windows it is in your pictures folder and then in a Lightroom folder. Inside of the Lightroom folder you will find another folder that has the extension .lrdata. It will have the same name as your catalog except for the extension. You need to delete that folder, and then start Lightroom again. Lightroom will generate a new previews folder, and you should be back in business.

  • Annoyed with JVC/Final Cut Pro import problem; will they ever fix this?

    Annoyed with Final Cut Pro JVC import problem; will they ever fix this?
    I've shot footage on JVC GY-HD111E in the UK in 720p/25p PAL mode.
    I'm trying to import lots of short clips (average 10 seconds) into Final Cut Pro (latest version with 720p/25p support) with a new Mac Pro maxed out with ram and 3 extra internal HDs.
    Problem is, on a scene-break i.e. pause/stop, Final Cut detects this and creates a new clip, but it takes about 5 seconds to 'searching for media" before it starts the new clip. Because some clips are only very short, this 5 second delay sometimes means I only get the final few frames of a clip, rather than the entire 5 seconds or so of it.
    JVC UK are blaming Apple and are saying it is up to them to fix it as Premiere and Edius does not have this problem.
    However, Symbiosis in the UK (who do HD-Connect box) say that the JVC ProHD cameras do not wrap the shots up properly at the end, they are kind of left open and this creates problems on scene-breaks.
    I've tried turning off the "create new clip on timecode break" etc, but it does not make any difference, when I do this it simply quits capturing on a scene break. Besides I have about 300 cutaways like this and I don't want to spend the rest of the year breaking them up on the timeline as this would be a futile and long workflow.
    I'm importing and working on a native HDV 720p/25p timeline and this is the way I want to work. I've already imported and edited 4 hours of footage, but these 4 hours were easy as all 4 tapes had no start/stop points, they were recorded continuously from beginning to end of tape for 64 minutes each time so importing was no problem; 1 clip per tape.
    But now I've come to my 5 tapes containing hundreds of cutaways I'm kind of screwed and need some advise on how I can import them natively in HDV without losing this 5 seconds off the beginning of each clip whilst FCP searches for the media each time.
    I've been told this issue is definately with FCP, any ideas how I can get around this?

    I haven't heard of this JVC/FCP problem, so I can't comment on it. However, whoever shot the cutaways didn't do you, the editor, any favors.
    I've been doing video since 1984, and I've got to say, anyone who shoots a scene that is only 5 or 6 seconds long on tape is making a huge mistake, and it's been that way since the beginning of computerized editing in the late 70s.
    Shoot at least 5 seconds of pre-roll before the shot begins, then roll tape for at least 5 seconds after you've got the shot. That's the protocol I've followed for 22 years now. Tape is cheap, edit suite time isn't.
    But laying down only 5 to 6 seconds for a scene is wrong, IMO.

    If your OS is fully up-to-date, that is close to impossible. The Flashback site has not been known to be active since long before August.
    Did you migrate any users from an older system, perhaps? It might have been transferred if that is the case.
    ISP's are famous for mis-diagnosing these things with regard to Macs, so you might want to challenge them to provide you with their logs and specifics about what they are seeing.
    Is it possible that another device is on your network that could be causing this, either something you own or a neighbor using your network?

    HI i have macbook pro with OSX 10.8. I am facing typical problem with Wi- Fi , in school wi-fi it does'nt connects to http sites and connects only https as no security/proxy settings done but in home wi-fi it connects to all  http and https sites. How to fix this problem as I am new this operating system. Please any one help me in this as I have installed Delicious Library which is not working in school becoz it searches amzon http site.

    I would imagine that at school, you're required to connect through an HTTP proxy.
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
    If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. Enter the proxy settings given to you by the network administrator. Click OK and then Apply.
    You may wish to create separate network locations for home and school. See the built-in help for instructions.

  • Problem on installing network printer Officejet Pro x451dw

    Problem on installing network printer Officejet Pro x451dw
    Hello everyone. I'm trying to install the above printer on my PC belonging to a network of about 7 pc. I should say that on the PC in question is running Windows XP Professional SP3 and that the printer has already been installed on other computers in the network and is functioning. I tried using both the driver CD that can be found on the HP website and they both do not give errors during instalation, indeed, perfectly detect the printer and its IP address, so the installation finishes successfully, but the press the test page, the waiting time extends until the error message "unable to print the document." I also made ​​an attempt with the software "hp scan doctor" and also this does not detect errors up to the test of the final print, that does not go through. At this point the software calls to make a print "internal" that this time occurs. The suggestion is to uninstall and then reinstall the HP software, but this intervention does not have a positive outcome. How else could I do attempt ??? I ask for help! Thank you for your attention. regards Roberto
    Problema su installazione di rete stampante Officejet Pro x451dw
    Salve a tutti. Sto cercando di installare la suddetta stampante sul mio PC appartenente ad una rete di circa 7 pc. Devo premettere che sul pc in questione è installato Windows Xp Professional SP3 e che la stampante è stata già installata sugli altri computer della rete ed è funzionante. Ho provato ad utilizzare sia il driver del CD che quello reperibile sul sito HP ed entrambi non danno errori in fase di instalazione, anzi, rilevano perfettamente la stampante ed il suo indirizzo IP, così l'installazione si conclude con esito positivo, ma alla stampa della pagina di prova il tempo di attesa si protrae fino al messaggio di errore " impossibile stampare documento ". Ho anche fatto un tentativo con il software "hp scan doctor" ed anche quest'ultimo non rileva errori fino alla prova di stampa finale, che non va a buon fine. A questo punto il software invita a effettuare una stampa " interna" che questa volta avviene. Il suggerimento è quello di disinstallare il software hp per poi reinstallare, ma anche questo intervento non ha esiti positivi. quale altro tentativo potrei fare ??? Chiedo aiuto ! Grazie per l'attenzione. Saluti Roberto

  • Printer spooler error when attempting to install Acrobat Pro (also Reader)

    I tried to install the trial version of Acrobat Pro today.  Installation would not complete due to an inability to stop the print spooler.
    After this failure to install, I was no longer able to access my printer via the previously installed Acrobat Reader.  I uninstalled Reader and attempted to reinstall it, only to discover the same print spooler problem.  Neither program will now install.
    I am running the latest version of Windows 8.  Can anybody help?

    Back with more information.
    After rebooting I successfully installed Acrobat Reader XI and established that it could contact the printer.
    I then tried to install the trial version of Acrobat Pro XI.  The procedure was slightly different this time, as this time it went via Adobe Creative Cloud, but the installation failed.
    The error report follows:
