Uninstalling Acrobat XI Trial

I am trying to uninstall an Acrobat XI trial. Will I be able to keep the PDF's that were created during the trial? All my PDF's are now in XI format. Will I be able to read them after I uninstall XI?
Thanks

Hi ltjennings
Yes, you can read the PDFs using Adobe Reader XI. Please download the latest Adobe Reader from this link : http://get.adobe.com/reader/

  • How do I uninstall Acrobat Pro XI after the trial period has elapsed?

    Buying is not an option for the moment (company processes to follow first - could take weeks!!) and the "readme" files give instructions that cannot be followed because there is no menu available now that the trial period has expired. Right now, I cannot open pdf files at all, even though I still have the free Acrobat Reader software installed.
    Any ideas anyone?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    It seems to me that Adobe Reader is not set as the default to handle pdf's but Acrobat is, and hence after the trial expired you are not able to view the pdf's.
    Please follow the steps below to change the default program for viewing pdf's
    Launch Acrobat / Reader.
    Click on the 'Edit' button in the toolbar, and then select 'Preferences'
    A new window would come up. On the left column, higlight the 'General' Tab and on the right hand side at the bottom there's a button called 'Select Default PDF Handler'
    Click the button and select 'Adobe Reader' as the default for PDF's.Click on 'Ok' now to save the changes.
    Alternatively, you can simply right click on any pdf file and then select 'Open With..' > 'Choose Default Program' and select 'Adobe Reader' from the list of programs.
    Make sure the option at the bottom is checked that says ' Always use the selected program to open this kind of file'.
    Click on 'Ok' now to save the changes.
    To uninstall Acrobat you can simply uninstall it from the Control Panel > Programs or use the Acrobat cleaner tool : http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html

  • Uninstalling Acrobat Trial on MacBook

    I am trying to install a paid version of Professional X but cannot complete the installation due to another version being on my computer.  I installed and trial 76 days ago and it has long expired, but I cannot seem to uninstall so that I can download the paid version.

    Hi Rita,
    We dont recommend to have two different versions of Acrobat installed on same machine. You need to uninstall Trial version from your computer and then install Acrobat X.
    What is the problem you are facing while uninstalling Acrobat from your machine?
    Try steps mentioned in this link, manually uninstalling Acrobat from Mac: Installing, uninstalling Acrobat X | Mac OS

  • Cant uninstall acrobat 9.0 trial version

    1) I have windows 7
    2) I downloaded acrobat pro trial version
    3) I bought acrobat pro and downloaded via disk
    4) I cannot delete trial version, or the purchased version.
    5) acrobat pro will not work at all and I get an error message that by TRIAL has expired!!!  I bought and registered the program.
    6) I have tried windows install cleanup utility to no avail
    7) Adobe customer support has worn me thin with their incompetence....(they cant fix it)
    if  anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it.

    I'm having the same problem, though not with the trial version - the real (Pro) version purchased and downloaded from a CD. I'll be interested in the replies.

  • I downgraded from CC to CS6, and Acrobat XI is now in trial mode. How can I use the Acrobat X that comes with the CS6 Master Collection disc? Should I uninstall Acrobat XI then install Acrobat X? What about de-/reactivation?

    I've read about deactivating/reactivating with Photoshop. If applicable, how is that done?
    Macbook Pro 16GB Mac OS X 10.9.4

    deactivating is done by opening a programs > click help > click deactivate.
    that's not applicable to cc apps.

  • FireFox still identifies pdfs as Foxit documents even though I'm opening them in Adobe Reader and uninstalled the Foxit trial and FF plugin years ago.

    When I click on a pdf file link in FireFox, the Windows open file dialogue opens, saying "You have chosen to open [filename]
    which is: Foxit Reader PDF Document [filesize]
    from: [author]
    What should FireFox do with this file?
    [selected radio button] Open with Adobe Reader
    THERE IS NO PROBLEM OPENING THE FILE. It opens in Adobe Reader, in a window outside of Firefox, which is exactly what I have it set up to do. The problem is that it identifies the file as a "Foxit Reeader PDF Document," even though I uninstalled the Foxit trial and associated FireFox plugin ages ago, and Foxit does not appear anywhere on my computer in any way, shape or form (that I have access to). No Foxit in the file associations for Windows, or in the applications associations for FireFox. There is no Foxit plugin installed, and I even went and deleted what was left of the Foxit directory. Yet pdfs are still identified in FireFox as Foxit files, so FireFox must be storing this old info somewhere. How do I get rid of it?
    BTW, files open in a browser window inside the browser in the other 3 browsers I have installed, so there is no open file dialogue, and I can't tell whether there is the same problem. When I check the properties of a pdf outside of FireFox (by rightclicking a pdf on my desktop, for example), it is identified as an Adobe Reader file. I have both Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat. I have two Adobe Acrobat plugins showing in FireFox (10.1.8.24 and 11.0.5.3). Should I have two? No plugins, extensions, or anything else by Foxit.

    Most likely this information is in the mimeTypes.rdf file, which can accumulate a lot of obsolete information which occasionally does cause problems. You can rename the file and have Firefox rebuild it from scratch with only the current applications detected (as far as Firefox can tell from the Windows Registry).
    Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using
    Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
    Switch back to Firefox and Exit
    Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename '''mimeTypes.rdf''' to something like mimeTypes.old
    Restart Firefox. Presumably now it will forget all about Foxit. Unfortunately, it may also have forgotten some of your application preferences, but hopefully those won't take too long to reestablish.

  • Acrobat X trial install with Acrobat 9 Pro

    Do I need to uninstall Acrobat 9 Pro before installing the Acrobat X trial?
    TIA.

    Yes - you cannot have two versions of Acrobat installed at the same time.

  • I am on Acrobat DC trial. On earlier versions have no problem with duplex printing. Now with DC, it's impossible. I have tried downloading latest printer software, etc, etc. Nothing seems to0 work. Any ideas please?

    Ralph, Thanks for replying. There where no received SIP messages at all just the INVITE being sent but I have made some more progress. The mini does indeed just work. I can do everything that you are supposed to do to other ichat users on the internet. Very nice.
    The imac is still playing up but I have got further. I had peerguardian2 installed which unknown to me doesn't need to be running to prevent you for accessing 'barred' IP addresses. snatmap.mac.com is barred in the lists! I discovered this when I saw one of your other posts showed how to turn on terminal logging for ichat. Now that I have turned off peerguardian2 (using the disable filters option) I can make calls to the testbot and see the adverts. I have even done a video conference with the two testbots. I will just uninstall peerguardian2.
    However, I can not get a AV chat working to a real user....
    In response to your suggestions:-
    I have tried all the options for quicktime streaming but will try 1.5Mb/s again.
    The ichat bandwidth limit is set to "none". I am in New Zealand and I have standard ADSL (not ADSL2+) 7.6M down 512K up. The mini config is also set to none.
    Internet sharing is off.
    I have had parallels on the machine but the two interfaces that it installed "Parallels Host-Guest" and "Parallels NAT" are configured 'off' and show as not connected. Is this enough? I will uninstall parallels and see if that helps since I don't use it. I also have VMware's thing installed but that doesn't seem to add any interfaces.
    I need to capture a full trace of the imac to other ichat user to see what is happening but will update when I have does your suggested changes or have a trace
    Thanks again

  • Acrobat Pro Trial wiped out my licensed version of Acrobat Standard

    I recently wanted to convert a PDF back to Microsoft Word because I could not find my original Word file. I thought Acrobat Standard would do it, but apparently not. Online research told me that I could download an Acrobat Pro Trial license, which can convert PDFs back to Word. It worked great but when my trial license expired, I discovered it's REALLY expensive to buy the Pro License - even to upgrade from Standard.
    NOW I just want to go back to Acrobat Standard, but the Pro Trial uninstalled my licensed version of Standard and it's gone! My licensed version came preinstalled on my new laptop from Sony as an Adobe bundle. I have no physical disks or my license number.
    What a mess! How can I go back to what I had prior to my Trial?

    You will need to contact Sony, if they didn't include disk and serial number with the computer, and if you didn't keep a suitable backup. What would Sony expect you to do if the hard drive failed and had to be replaced, for example?

  • Problems after uninstalling Acrobat 10

    I recently installed and then uninstalled a trial version of  Acrobat 10.  Now when I try to make a pdf in Acrobat 9, I get an error message that the distiller cannot find a file in an Acrobat 10 folder (which has been deleted).  How can I get the distiller in 9 to work again.  I already tried uninstalling and re-installing it, as well as running it in repair mode.  Nothing seems to work. 

    Sorry to hear about the trouble.  We've heard some reports of similar issues with files not opening after the 11.0.01/10.1.5/9.5.3 updates were installed.  I would suggest uninstalling Acrobat, the reinstalling and patching up to 10.1.4 again as an immediate solution.
    To help us figure out what may be going with your particular files, could you open one in Acrobat and choose File > Properties.  I'd like to know what it says next to the PDFProducer and Application lines.

  • Problem uninstalling Acrobat 9

    I had a long expired trial version of Acrobat 9 on my computer. I may have inadvertently deleted the installer recently, and have run into propblems. Every time I try to open any file on my computer, Windows Installer wants to run the installer, but it can't find it, because a file called Acropro.msi is not available. I tried to uninstall Acrobat 9, but I got a message saying that it cannot be removed. When I realized the problem was likely due to having deleted the installer, I thought that, if I installed a trial version of Acrobat 10, it would include uninstallation of the old program. That didn't work either, because Windows installer again is looking for AcroPro.msi to complete the task.
    So, I now have a downloaded trial version of Acrobat 10 that won't install, and an old trial version of Acrobat 9 that won't uninstall, as well as a very annoying dialogue box that opens every time I try to open a file.
    Help. please!

    That probably won't go away without heavy surgery on the Windows registry. You'd have to manually delete acouple of keys like the relevant Adobe keys in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall and other such places as well as the file type handlers in the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT branch. Other than that the simple solution would be to reinstall Acrobat 9, then uninstall it...

  • Regretfully, I uninstalled Acrobat on cloud

    Although a subscriber to cloud, Acrobat XI stopped working; telling me that 'the trial period had ended'. I uninstalled Acrobat XI and now I can't reinstall it. The download manager shows it as 'up to date'??Help

  • Can't Uninstall Acrobat 9

    The Acrobat PDF Maker Add-in for Office got disabled and I can't seem to re-enable it. I've tried the suggestions in http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb401734&sliceId=2 except for uninstalling Acrobat. I can't uninstall it because when I go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs Acrobat isn't listed there. When I run the Acrobat installer it doesn't give me an option to uninstall, and I can't find an uninstaller.
    Any ideas on how to remove Acrobat?
    Windows XP SP3
    Office 2007
    Acrobat Pro 9.4.4

    Thanks for the link!
    I took a look and read the following:
    Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.
    So, to make sure I undersand the process:
    --- I use this windows utility to remove the installation files form my PC
    --- What next?   Will I need to reinstall the Acrobat Pro Trial edition just to immediately run the uninstall?
    Even if this is the correct process, I'm not sure this will work because the trial version is limited to a 30 day period that already expired on my computer.  So I doubt I would be able to reinstall it.  I suspect I would get an error saying that I now have to purchase the official version.
    Thanks again for your help with this.

  • My Acrobat XI trial is over and now it won't let my other adobe open ANY of my PDF's (I am no real computer savvy and am very frustrated!)

    How do I get my Acrobat to open again. My acrobat XI trial is over and it won't let me open any PDF's!!

    Edit | Preferences | General
    click on the Select Default PDF Handler button and set it to Adobe Reader
    uninstall the Acrobat trial; if you don't know how to do that, tell us your operating system
