ACROBAT XI Pro -EDIT TOOL SET - POP-UP WINDOW IS TOO LARGE
Good Day -
I've been experiencing very nagging problem since installing recent Acrobat Xi Pro uodate (on windows 7 system):
Specifically - I cannot edit/change the TOOL SET to include needed TOOLS (i.e., that were all previously in my Tool set) as the EDIT TOOL SET WINDOW (i.e., pop-up
window) is TOO LARGE and does not allow scrolling/ or moving down to SAVE any tool sets and or tool set changes. Very frustrating as all attempts (and recommendations from reviews/support) for decreasing the size of EDIT TOOL SET WINDOW (popup) in order to save (i.e. include ANY) tools have been unsuccessful. So for past week I've been unable to include/use any TOOLS for working in (i.e., editing/commenting etc) pdf's. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Would greatly appreciate any / all steps & recommendations for fixing.
Thank-you!First, make sure you are on the latest update 11.0.09. Help->check for updates should get you there.
If check for updates says that you have the latest, see if the setting: Edit->Settings->General->Basic Tools->Scale for screen resolution and try various options (you'll have to restart Acrobat with each selection) -
Upgrade Windows 8.1 to Pro Issue
I am trying to upgrade my Windows 8.1 machine to pro. I am doing this via DVD and product key I purchased. When I try to perform the upgrade the only option I get when I am asked, "Choose what you want to keep" is nothing. I would like to keep
everything and don't understand why I can't.Hi,
What DVD did you buy? It seems that you got the full Windows 8.1 pro. If so, we cannot use it to upgrade to Windows 8.1 pro, besides clean installation.
To upgrade Windows 8.1 to pro version, we just need to buy the Windows 8.1 pro pack:
Windows 8.1 Pro Pack
http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/en_US/pdp/Windows-8.1-Pro-Pack/productID.288392300
Then, we can follow these steps to do the upgrade, and we may not lose anything:
Right click This PC -> Properties -> Get more features with a new edition of Windows -> I already have a product key
Then, type the key you bought, and restart the computer.
Hope this could be helpful.

Hi,
I have Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium OS which is pre-installed when I buy the Laptop.

I formatted my Laptop and re-install Windows 7 64-bit and want to install directly Windows 8.1 without upgrading Windows 8 first then Windows 8.1.
Is this possible then please let me know where can I download Windows 8.1 and how I use Windows 8 Pro product key in Windows 8.1.ad
Thanks.
Best Regards
Syed ArshadSee http://m.winsupersite.com/windows-8/windows-81-tip-download-windows-81-iso-windows-8-product-key but note that you will need a
placeholder key to install Windows 8.1. Follow the comments on the article to find one. -
Upgrade Windows 8.0 Pro. to Windows 8.1 Ent.
Due to a requirement of one of our schools we are purchasing quite a number of Gesture based devices.
These devices come with Windows 8.0/8.1 Pro pre-installed.
I'm looking into ways of upgrading to Windows 8.1 Ent. I thought "setup.exe /auto:upgrade" might work, however when I run it on these devices nothing happens. I believe this is due to an "error" I receive when running through the
setup wizard dealing with the Display languages needing to be re-installed.
I'd like to confirm that this is indeed the issue, and if so find a solution that would allow me to perform this upgrade.Hi,
Would you please let me know what tool you plan to use to deploy Windows 8.1 Enterprise?
Please help to post back the full description of the error message you got.
Also, if you got any other language packages besides English were installed on the Pro version computer, please try to remove it and try again.
As I known, if you have any folder redirection GP in your current environment, the deployment will fail.
For further plan, please help to upload the setuperr.log and
setupact.log under C:\Windows\Logs\PBR\PreRollbackLogs\ and C:\WINDOWS\PANTHER\ here for research.
Here is the article for your reference:

Windows 8.1 Update Core and Pro edition Retail
Hi
In the Windows 8.1 Pro Update DVD
Retail , there is also the Core
edition? If so, how do I
choose it?
Thanks
Bye
BalubetoHi,
No, If you buy the Windows 8.1 pro, it just for Windows 8.1 pro edition. Windows 8.1 core is Windows 8.1 edition actually.
You could compare them as the following article:

I have just transferred my iTunes library from a hard drive previously connected to a windows laptop to a MacBook Pro and now all my options for editing info are greyed out. I have seen the answers if still using windows but could find a similar situation to this one.

if my external hard drive is not connected to either of my machines, and I download something onto my iMac and then something different onto my Macbook, where are my machines going to be storing the new downloaded media
when the drive is not connected, +iTunes media folder location+ will default back to <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music/iTunes/iTunes music (or media)
and when I next connect the external hard drive how will I easily get the newly downloaded media onto the external HD
you'd have to point +iTunes media folder location+ back to the external via preferences > advanced > iTunes media folder location, then file > library, organize library > consolidate files
and essentially, to have it easily readable on both machines?
in that case it might be best to copy the entire iTunes folder to the external. then, on each machine, launch iTunes while pressing option on your keyboard. when prompted, click on +choose library+ and navigate to the iTunes folder on the external.
note only one iTunes can access the iTunes library @ a time !
also, make sure the external is mounted on either machine before launching iTunes.

My macbook pro (10.6.8 version) the screen turns blue, can not operate, forced shutdown, I installed the windows 7 Home Basic version.
To fix your issue is too complicated and lengthy to go into all of it here, it will require the services of person very familiar and experienced with Mac's to first recover your data and then restore OS X back to a functional state, then hopefully achieve the goals you were attempting.
I advise you hire the services of a local Mac computer support technician experienced in these matters.
Have them look at your Wifi and computer backup proceedures in the process.
Good Luck. -
I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard [serial number removed by moderator] and would like to upgrade to the Microsoft Windows 8 and the Office Professional Edition 2013.
Hi w james,
As you mentioned that you are upgrading your Operating System to Windows 8 and MS Office to MS Office Professional 2013, please note that Adobe Acrobat 9 is not compatible with Windows 8 and MS Office 2013. You need to upgrade to Adobe Acrobat XI as it is fully compatible with Windows 8 and MS Office 2013.
