UPDATE ACROBAT 5.0 TO BE COMPATIBLE WITH WINDOWS 7

I have a new computer with windows 7.  My Adobe Acrobat 5.0 is incompatible. Is there an upgrade that will make this compatible?

'Fraid not. You will need to buy Acrobat XI (11) . Reduced price upgrades finished many, many years ago.

  • Acrobat Pro 9 is not compatible with Windows 7

    Acrobat Pro 9 is not compatible with Windows 7.  How do I upgrade my version?
    Thanks,
    John

    Where did you get that information (other than Win 7 is not listed in the compatibility list)? I have been using AA9 on Windows 7 for several years (it is a 32-bit system). Did you try to install it or some other issue crop up? You may need to be sure you install the updates, but otherwise it should work. Even folks with AA8 have been successful on Win 7 (at least that is what they have reported), though they are likely to have some minor problems at times.
    My Win7 came with Acrobat 9 when Win 7 first came out and has worked fine. If you have upgraded OFFICE to 2010 or later, then you would only be able to print, not use PDF Maker.
    That being said, it is still a good idea to go ahead and upgrade. AA9 is the oldest version qualifying for the upgrade to AAXI.

    I just got a camcoder that uses Acrobat Reader 5.0 and can view the stillshots but can't view the motion shots. It says it's not compatible with windows vista sp1. What can I do to make them compatible?

    Upgrade to the latest version of Reader through here: http://www.adobe.com/go/EN_US-H-GET-READER
    Also, this is not the Reader forum, but the Acrobat forum.

    If you are on windows 7 I would recommend you to switch to the latest Acrobat DC as it has a new and interesting UI along with enhanced features that will make your work a lot simpler .

  • Is there anything I can do to make Acrobat Pro 6 compatible with Windows 7?

    Hello,
    I have a brand new Windows 7 laptop and I'm trying to use Adobe Acrobat Professional 6 on it. I ran the installation without a problem, however when I try to use it, I get an error message, which says that Adobe Acrobat Professional 6 is not compatible with Windows 7 operating system. Is there any driver or anything that I can download to make it work? Thank you in advance for any help.

    Win 7 either comes with a virtural XP machine installed, or it's freelly availible.  I forget which, but this may be a simple solution to your issue.

  • Is there an update to make Acrobat Pro 6.0 compatible with Windows 7?

    I have been using Adobe Acrobat Professional 6.0 on a Windows XP OS, but as of 4/8/2014 XP is no longer supported. So, I did Easy Transfer from XP to a computer using Windows 7. When I installed my Adobe Acrobat Professional 6.0 software on the Windows 7 computer, I received a message that it was not compatible with Windows 7. Is there an update or work around that will allow me to use the 6.0 version with my Windows 7 computer?  This is software I've used daily for years and need it, but can't afford to buy new version right now. Any help would be appreciated.

    I am suggesting you keep the XP computer permanently disconnected, and have your new computer connected to the internet. You can move files between them with a memory stick.
    (Worth considering that Windows is not the only thing with security issues which need fixing. By continuing to run an old Acrobat you have been deprived of security patches for many years. Only Acrobat X and XI are in the "currently supported" category. You should consider this carefully for all your apps, the bad guys could attack ANYTHING.)

  • Adobe Acrobat 5 not compatible with Windows 8

    When I try to open up files saved in Adobe Acrobat 5 my new computer with Windows 8 gives me a message that they are not compatible with Windows 8. What do I need to do to be able to open these files on my new computerwth Windows 8?

    Did you install reader or such on Win8? AA5 is not even compatible with Win7, though it can be made to work with work arounds for the 32-bit version. I suspect you also have a 64-bit system, which I think is totally incompatibile with AA5. Download the Reader XI and try to open the PDFs with that. I suspect they will open fine.
    If you want to create PDFs, you will need to purchase AA XI.

  • Adobe Acrobat 6.0 not compatible with windows 7

    Hello,
    Some years ago I bought Adobe Acrobat 6.0 which I placed on my old computer. Now I have a new computer with windows 7 and the acrobat 6.0 version apears not compatible with this windows version. Does anyone know a solution?
    Thanks in advance.
    Best wishes,
    Arjen

    If you have Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, or Ultimate, you can download Windows XP Mode and attempt to install Adobe Acrobat 6 in the virtual environment. Windows XP Mode uses Windows Virtual PC to run a full Windows XP Professional 32 bit environment virtually, and it is a free download. A limitation you may encounter is that the PDF printer will not be accessible from your Windows 7 programs, only from programs which are installed in the Windows XP Mode environment.
    This subject has been discussed on several forums, and while Acrobat version 6 does install and work for some users, the PDF printer does not install on Windows 7. Version 9 was the first version which was compatible with Windows 7, so if this is critical to you, you should consider upgrading to the latest version of Acrobat.

    triniwhite,
    I believe the solution may be to downdate Windows 7 to have XP running as a Virtual Machine, then run 10 in that.

    Current Firefox versions require a Mac with an Intel processor and OS X 10.6.
    Firefox 16 is the last version that runs on Intel Mac OS X 10.5.
    You would have to update to OS X 10.6 to be able to use current Firefox releases.

    adobe acrobat 5 is not compatible with windows 7.  need a replacement that will work.  any suggestions.

    I would recommend Acrobat 10.  You can find more details as well as a trial at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html?promoid=JOLIR.  It should be noted though that Acrobat 5 is too old of a version to qualify for the upgrade price I am sorry.

    Is iTunes now compatible with Windows 8 with the iTunes 11.0 update?

    Problem solved. The music was from Amazon MP3 store and I had to re-download it from the Amazon Cloud Player to my hard drive. It was there, but not even the Amazon Cloud Player software would play it from my PC, though it would from the Cloud. So after the re-download, I was able to add it to my iTunes Library.
