Updated from Acrobat 5 to 7, seems to do far less. Need help.

I just "updated" from Acrobat Standard 5 to 7, but I guess I wasted my money. It doesn't seem to do half of what 5 did! Some upgrade!
Ok, now that I've vented, please tell me there's a way to select objects to delete them. I've tried the "Object Data Tool" and the "Select Object Tool," one of which you'd think would do the trick, but no. I tried clicking on the objects, I tried drawing a box around them, it acts as if there's nothing there. It won't select anything.
v7 apparently doesn't allow you to create or edit forms either, which 5 did! How is going backwards an update???

I have Acrobat Standard 7, not pro. But my v5 was not pro, and it did forms.
It also had no problem working with objects, the way this one seems to.
I've uploaded the file to a place where you can have access to it, it's a publication called the Humor Times:

Thanks for taking a look.

Updating from Acrobat 6.0.2

I would like to update from Acrobat 6.0.2, and just downloaded Acrobat Pro 9.
I don't seem to be able to access it, and wonder if I have to go numerically through
all the updates that I never did to get to 9? Thanks for your help!

What version of of OSX do you have?
6.0.2 works on up to X.3.9.
Version 9.0 works only on X.4.11 and up.
You don't update to Acrobat 9.
You must Purchase Acrobat 9.
Adobe might give you a discount if you give them your current serial number to verify you own a previous version.

Hi, Hi, Hi I have the old MacBook Pro. Upgraded to Mountain Lion which completely wrecked the system. So downgraded to Snow Leopard. The updated the combo update. Now stuck on blue screen at start-up. Need help. Greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,
I have the old MacBook Pro. Upgraded to Mountain Lion which completely wrecked the system. So downgraded to Snow Leopard.
Then updated the combo update. Now stuck on blue screen at start-up.
Need help. Greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Downgrade Lion/Mountain Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer
      loads select your language and click on the Continue
      button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the
      Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the
      mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status
      of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then
      the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART
      info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on
      the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions
      from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS
      Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the
      partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on
      the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

I bought my iPad off a friend and it is hacked. I can't upgrade the software to iOS 5.1 it says unable to update. And something about me not being eligible. I need help please

If the device is jail broken - and the message is that the iPad is not eligible for the requested build - there are tons of articles on the internet that discuss how to fix the iPad. Use Google.

Can't update from Acrobat 9.3.0 to 9.3.2

I installed Acrobat 9.3.0 from my Adobe Creative Suite CS5 disk set and now I need help updating to 9.3.2, the most recent version. I've pasted the error messages and what I tried below. I'd appreciate it if anyone can tell me what I need to do differently.
I'm running Mac OS X 10.6.4 on an Intel Xeon Mac Pro.
I got an error message that says the update could not be applied:
I uninstalled Acrobat, then reinstalled it, immediately ran the updater again, and got the same message.
I tried downloading the updater for 9.3.1, thinking I needed to apply incremental updates separately, but on running it I got a similar error message saying the update failed:

After you install, Acrobat Pro (9.3.0) in CS5, do a "Help > Check for Updates". The Adobe Updater software will automatically download and install patches and take you from 9.3.0 to 9.3.3 in one go. You will be asked your admin credentials to be able to complete a successfull install

3gs no service after updating to ios 5 tried network reset, reset all settings and even restoring from back been with out phone for 3 weeks now need help telus cant find network problem and apple has bad customer support please help!!!

my 3gs has no service after updating from ios 5 tried resetting network settings, resetting all settings and restoring from back up on itunes.
telus cant find any network problems and apple is difficult to deal with.please help 3 weeks with no phone and $70 a month not happy.

I have been having a similar problem for the last few days.Without warning the signal will just completely duck out leaving the device searching for several minutes before settling on a no signal message.
Sometimes restarting the device, toggling data and 3g settings or toggling Airplane Mode will set things right. However, a lot of the time I've been left without a working phone.
I don't believe this is a SIM issue, as I had to change my SIM only one month ago for another signal related problem. Again any help would be appreciated here as well.

I can't launch Acrobat Pro 9.0 (OS 10.6.4). Need Help.

Hi:
1. I have acrobat pro 9.0 ( I haven't updated it) and it was working fine until several days ago, when I updated the OS to the current 10.6.4.   Prior to that, it was working fine with the prior version of snow leopard etc...
2. Now, when I try to launch acrobat pro, I just get this message saying that acrobat quit unexpectedly.    I figured that I needed to update acrobat pro, I downloaded the current update, but when I go to update the original application, I can't do it because the icon for acrobat pro is greyed out (hopefully this makes sense).     Furthermore, I can't update acrobat pro by launching the application and having the software updater figure out what is needed... because I can't launch the program in the first place.
3. Does anyone know what in the world is going on?   From all of the variables, it's obvious that there's some issue with acrobat pro 9.0 and OS 10.6.4, but I can't figure out how to update the acrobat pro 9.0.
Any thoughts / help, much appreciated. Harry

Since you have already downloaded all the patches starting from 9.1 to 9.3.4, i would sugg
est a little longer route but this might solve your problem.
1. Create a new admin account say admin1
2. Log out from the current admin account and login as admin1(the new admin account)
3. Now update Acrobat 9.0 to 9.3.4
4. Now if you want you can logout and login into the original admin.
Hope this solves your problem.

Have photoshop cs5 installed on desktop..got new Canon rebel T5i camera...cannot open RAW images...updated and installed plug-in...still now working. Need help, please.

I have photoshop cs5 installed on desktop...got new Canon rebel T5i camera...cannot open RAW images...updated and installed plug-in...still not working...help please.

In any event, that camera was first supported by ACR version 7.4 which needs at least CS6 to run. Naturally, all later versions support it too.
Your choice is either to upgrade your Photoshop, or to look for, download, install, launch and run the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter 8.6 on each folder containing your raw Canon files to convert them first to raw DNGs that you can open in CS5.
In no case does an Adobe application belong "on your desktop". The default install location should always be respected and left alone.

Problem updating from Acrobat 10.1.10 to 11. Error 1001, and am told to connect to update server. When I activated the installer, message said Install failed, contact manufacturer for assistance, so I am.

I am using a 2011 MacBook Pro, running OS X 10.9.5. Have been using Acrobat 10.1.10, but got a pop-up notice from Adobe today, saying that it had been awhile since last logged on and my software was due for an update. However, after downloading the update Acrobat 11, the updater seems to be unable to FIND the file to update, so it asks me to select the file to update. When I found it, the file icon was grayed out, and wouldn't allow me to select it. Gave me a message for "Error 1001". I'm an experienced Mac user, but not a programmer, so I don't know what that means. When I tried to run the installer from the downloaded file, it stopped, saying "Installation Failed" due to encountering an error—which was NOT named or numbered—and that I should contact the manufacturer for assistance. Which I am ATTEMPTING to do, but it appears to be impossible to actually get direct help.
Suggestions, or better yet, direct answers, would be appreciated.

Did you ever figure out the problem? "Contact Software Manufacturer"?? That sounds ominous... I've got the same issue and I'm pretty durn aggravated right about now....
Thanks!

Adobe Updater overloads data line while updating from Acrobat Reader 8.1.2 to 8.1.3

Hello
I'm from germany but I'm doing my best to get you understanding me.
I'm experiencing some problems updating Adobe Reader from version 8.1.2 to 8.1.3 in our company. Our users have no administrative rights on their PCs and therefore are not able to install any update manually. That's why I want to use the Adobe Updater.
We're also using a proxy which doesn't allow our users to download any *.exe files. I configured Adobe Updater to search for Adobe Reader updates once a month.
But then from time to time our data line was fully overloaded. When I checked the logfiles of our proxy I mentioned that Adobe Updater tried to reach ardownload.adobe.com for more than 1500 times in only 3 hours from only 1 PC. This means that nearly every 7 seconds ardownload.adobe.com has been contacted by one PC. When I deactivated Adobe Updater the problem was solved. So it seems to me, that Adobe Updater is the reason why our data line get's more and more loaded by this update function.
What is happing during the discovery of available updates and wherefore does Adobe Updater tries to download the same file for more than 1500 times? Does anyone have an answer to this? If you have any proposal to solve this problem I would be glad if you answer me. And let me add that I don't want to grant our users access for downloading .exe files :-)
Thanks so much
Macke

The latest release of the Adobe Updater has fixes for networking with proxy servers. If you aren't running the latest (because it can't connect), you can manually download and then install the Adobe Updater for Reader & Acrobat 8 from the URLs below.

With new updates from Acrobat Read my computer freezes and I can not fill in forms anymore, how do I fix these problems?

After updating Acrobat Reader my computer now freezes when I try to fill in forms using Acrobat Reader, this never happen before! Now the only way to unfreeze my computer is to turn it off and restart it, which is not how a computer is suppose to be turned off as nothing responses to get it unfrozen(ESC., Contol-Alt-Delete)! The I shows up as if I am able to fill in forms, but after trying to fill in the form numerous times various ways, it always ends up freezing my computer up! I HATE THE NEW UPDATES! Why can't I speak with a live human, through Adobe? I would not want to buy anything from any company which would not allow me support by talking to a live human over the phone, as typing messages can be misunderstood! Their is no point to have Acrobat Reader any more if it does not allow me to fill in forms! I could use the reader that came with the computer! It is sad that for myself filling forms using Acrobat Reader was nice since there are times I am unable to write anything due to tremors, unfortunately I am not alone in this type of medical problem and we the disabled the majority of us are on Social Security! Everyone know that Social Security does not give their recipients enough money to live off of! It is sad when a person is ill they lose more than their livelihood, so called friends abandon you too! So how can I fix the freezing problems and is there any Adobe that I can fill in forms which will not cost me money and or another company that may offer this free of charge?

Update from Acrobat 9.3.2 Std to 9.3.3 fails

I have had Acrobat 9.3.2 (Standard) on my laptop at work for over a year now. I can no longer update to new versions. When I try and do updates as a local admin (only an admin on MY laptop) from the Help menu, or download the 9.3.3 update individually, I get the error below. Local work IT says "it ain't us, nothing has changed policy wise". They suggested re-installing the program then do the patch update to 9.3.3; I did a "reinstall" which did successfully reinstall the 9.3.2 version, but I still get the error message below when trying to get to 9.3.3.
Any idea WHAT causes this error below (can a registry change relax what Acrobat is complaining about)? I looked in the registry to see if there was anything obvious (there wasn't), so I am uncertain how to get the new update installed. My IT department is demanding I update my Flash and Acrobat to latest versions due to security problems... I have to figure out how to do this or uninstall and stop using Acrobat. Flash updated ok to the latest version (10.1.53 as I recall), but Acrobat is refusing to update. Ugh. Any help would be appreciated.
http://www.adobe.com/support/security/advisories/apsa10-01.html

Make sure that registry values below are not set to 1:
"DisablePatch" in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer
"DisableLUAPatching" in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer
Good luck

Activate Acrobat X Pro Update from Acrobat 8 Standard Update

When I try to install the Acrobat 10 Pro Update software that I purchased directly from Adobe, a window opens that demands entry of the Adobe 8 code but does not list Acrobat 8 Standard as one of the possible choices.
When I purchased the upgrade the Adobe web site said" consider an upgrade to Acrobat X Pro if you have Acrobat 9, 8, or 7 Standard."
I not only considered the upgrade, I purchased it for USD 199. How do I install?
This is very unpleasant because in order to try and install Acrobat 10 Pro, I am asked to uninstall Acrobat 8. Then when I get to the final installation step, I am not allowed to continue and am left with nothing!!! Since Adobe 8 was an upgrade to Acrobat 6, the reinstallation process is lengthy.

Redwood X I would recommend contacting our support team. They can easily verify your serial number is valid. For the best assistance, I recommend our chat support at http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6. Our chat representatives can provide a personalized experience to resolve the issue you have described.

Updated from Acrobat 5 to 7, seems to do far less. Need help.
