Upgrading Adobe Acrobat

I haev recently upgraded my mac from a Powerbook G4 to a Macbook Air with operating system OSX 10.7.4. I was running Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard (upgraded) on my old mac, but it will not run on the new system. Can I upgrade it to Adobe Acrobat X Professional (mac) or do I need to buy the completely new version?

No, Acrobat 7.0 Standard was a prety old softwre and will not run on MAC 10.7.4. You need to switch to new version of Acrobat which is XI that will work just fine on your MAC Lion.
Acrobat X is not available any more, so, you won't be able to upgrade as well. To get Acrobat XI upgrade, you need to have atleast Acrobat 8.0.
The best option for you will be to get a full version of Acrobat XI from adobe.com or can get the subscription for Acrobat XI Pro
You can check the prices from the below link.

How do I upgrade Adobe acrobat? Cannot follow your instructions.
It used to be so easy>

Hi keithalbert,
Please refer : http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/buying-guide-upgrade-pricing.html
and check what version you own and if you are eligible for an upgrade. It also lists the upgrade price, product and version comparison.
After choosing the product you own you can order Acrobat XI online and pay the upgrade price.

Upgrading Adobe Acrobat 5.0 to 9 on Vista

I just bought a new computer with Windows Vista. I have an old Adobe Acrobat 5.0 CD which I was limping along with just fine... until now. Apparently Vista doesn't like 5.0. So, I purchased Adobe Acrobat 9... the upgrade. I cannot find any mention of which versions can be upgraded to Adobe 9, but here is what happened...
During installation of Adobe 9, I got a message saying that 5.0 conflicts with 9 and that I should uninstall 5.0 before proceeding. So, I did. However, when I ran Adobe 9 (after installation was complete), the program looked for a previous version of Adobe and couldn't find it. Well, of course not... it was uninstalled. But, the dialog said I had only to specify my old version, type in my registration id from my previous version, and all would be good... BUT, my choices start with Adobe 6, not 5.
SOOOO, I uninstalled 9, reinstalled 5, and have started the installation of 9 again, and come to the point where it recommends I uninstall 5. Well, one of the options is to proceed with the installation without uninstalling 5, and I just don't know if I should. I'm not even sure if the upgrade will accept 5 as a previous version, and I don't know if 9 will work with 5 installed as well... and I don't know if 9 will still work when I uninstall 5 afterward.
Any help or insgight into this dilemma is appreciated!

"Looks like there are big time problems with updates in Acrobat 8.0"
- we've never had one problem with an Acrobat 8 update. Remember that users on this forum are by definition not representative of general experience i.e. many are here specifically because they ARE having problems (either due to the product or their own making).
"If you have problems with AA6, I would question the wisdom of upgrading to a new version."
- I'd agree if the computer is more than three years old

Upgrade Adobe Acrobat XI Standard auf Pro?

Kann man Adobe Acrobat XI Standard auf Pro upgraden?

Hallo, danke für die Info. Dies habe ich bereits gesehen. Allerdings steht dort nur, das ein Upgrade v. Acrobat X auf XI Pro möglich ist. Die XI Std. auf XI Pro ist nicht aufgeführt, daher meine Frage.

Acrobat Reader no longer works in FF4- Upgraded Adobe Acrobat too and still not opening pdf files in Firefox4.

Can't open pdf files in FF4. Updated Adobe Acrobat to version X but still won't open. Worked before in FF3.6.

What is the version of your Mac OS? Is Safari running in 64 bit (check from Safari->Get Info)? If yes, change it to 32-bit and try again.

Why can't i upgrade Adobe Acrobat 7.0 to 7.1.0???

when i open adobe 7.0 standard and click help --> "check for updates now", it says there is one update available (Adobe Acrobat 7.1.0 Standard Update). it shows up on the right column "selected updates", but when i click the update button nothing happens.
no error, no event logs...nothing. just closes the updates window and brings be back to a blank acrobat screen
before i click update
after i click update
anyone know why this is happening? also, is there a link to where i can download and install this update manually? adobe.com only goes back to v10.

Hi David ,
It could be possible as Acrobat 7 standard is a pretty older version .
Compatibility of Acrobat 7 standard with the OS you are using could be another possibility .
It is an older version ,would be slightly difficult to get the updates of this specific version.
I would recommend you to opt for the latest Acrobat version .i.e Acrobat 11.0.10.

How do I turn off antivirus software to upgrade to Adobe Acrobat Professional from the Standard?

I need to turn off antivirus software on my computer at work. It has Kaspersky, McAfee, and Norton, believe it or not. I have not installed or used these antivirus programs, but I am required to know how to disable them temporarily to do this upgrade. Please help!

Why do you need to disable the antivirus program to upgrade Adobe Acrobat?
Are you facing some issues while upgrading?
I was able to find following links that might help you:
Norton Anti Virus : http://www.ehow.com/how_5986174_temporarily-disable-norton-antivirus.html
Kaspersky : http://support.kaspersky.com/6596
McAfee : http://download.mcafee.com/products/webhelp/4/4105/GUID-6E2C3F81-4334-490A-A0C0-EABE466A54 00.html
I tried to look for them on web, I will recoemmend you to contact the Antivirus manufacturer, if you are still facing the problem.

Adobe Acrobat 9 still can't convert Word 2003 files?

http://forums.adobe.com/thread/673769 is a link to the same discussion a year ago. There was no option for me to add a reply, so I had to create a new discussion here.
HAS THIS PROBLEM BEEN FIXED? Fujitsu's pdf printer S1500 comes with a full OEM version Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard, which I just installed. Immediately it caused problems with Word 2003, just as the above discussion link illustrates. Clearly that's a problem with Adobe Acrobat not being able to read SOME fonts. Where is there any bug fix for this?
Why would a customer want to upgrade Adobe Acrobat, if he can't get font support? In my case, it appears that GREEK FONTS are not supported, which makes no sense, if the fonts are installed in Windows. The pdf-converter knock-offs like Smart Creator PDF Pro can convert just fine -- so why not Adobe Acrobat? Who wants to pay more for Adobe, if it is worse?
So again I ask -- has this problem been fixed? Very unprofessional, if the answer is 'no'.
Very unproductive, too. I spent hours on computer crashes, reinstall uninstall detect and repair, just like the posters in that thread above, from a year ago. Businesses don't need this kind of aggravation. IS ADOBE EVEN LISTENING? Very unprofessional, if the answer is 'no'.

First, this is a user-to-user forum and not one for Adobe. They are sometimes around, but not on a regular basis. The lengthy discussion in the link did not apparently get folks to a solution. I did not see your handle in the discussion.
Two common errors were suggested, one the color setup and the other was font errors. Keep in mind that just because you have a font, it might not be able to be embedded in the file. That is due to copyright restrictions. The font file has to have the permission built into it to be used. That may be the case for any font that you download from another source. Most of the MS fonts are licensed for embedding.
Also, just because you have a font with the same name, does not mean it is the same. There are often multiple versions of the fonts, some that are useful and others not.
Out of the linked discussion, I have no idea what issues you are having -- there were many. I use AA9 with OFFICE 2007 and have no problems. I also use AA8 with OFFICE 2007. For AA7 I have a machine that runs OFFICE XP (2003). None of these have issues. To be able to help (if we can at all) it is necessary to track down the conditions when the problem occurs and possibly try to replicate it some. A few folks mentioned 64-bit systems in the linked discussion. The 64-bit systems have caused a lot of problems and generally require the updates for proper opertation.
From the point-of-view of trying to fix things without delving into the specfics, all I can suggest are a repair and then updates to the latest version of Acrobat. The updates should be able to be done from the Help menu, but if not from there you can download them from the Adobe Downloads>updates site.
Probably not considered much help at this point, but I really don't have enough information to home in on the problem. It may be that my copyright comment about fonts is really the issue (you should get an error message from Distiller if you print to the Adobe PDF printer that suggest the problem. As far as other packages, if they do indeed embed copyright fonts that do not have permission, then you are technically violating the law, even if allowed by the software. I have no idea if that is the case, but it is a possibility.

Adobe Acrobat Standard 6 & Windows 8

I own Adobe Acrobat Standard 6.0.
Can I use it on a Windows 8.1 computer?
If not, can I upgrade Adobe Acrobat Standard 6.0 at minimal cost?
I will be purchasing a new Windows 8.1 laptop and discarding my old laptop.

You may be able to get it to work with some workarounds that I have tried on various Win7 versions. The 64-bit system creates additional problems, so you may want to ask if a 32-bit system will meet your need. Even with the workarounds (if they would work for you), the extra effort to use them gets annoying quickly. You would also have problems reading a lot of newer PDFs I would guess. Now is probably the time to purchase a new version (as TSN, AA6 does not qualify for an upgrade). There was a sale before Christmas, but not sure if there will be another.

Android Auto and Adobe Acrobat DC with Galaxy S5

I have recently upgraded to Lollipop. I had an earlier build but I factory reset due to battery drain (this did not resolve the issue).
I upgraded so that I could use Android Auto. No matter what, this phone will not launch this app when needed when connected to a Pioneer system.
In the newly upgraded Adobe Acrobat DC, the application launches the Verizon Cloud app instead of the phone's file system when using the floating action button for opening a file.
Since "proper" behavior in Acrobat Reader occurs when Cloud is disabled, I can only assume that Verizon has baked something into the Cloud app that makes it supersede the Android file system in this context.
As I like to use Cloud to back up contacts and phone/message history, I'd rather not disable it. Can anyone point me to a setting that loosens Cloud's hold on my system?

With regard to the Adobe issue I have found the solution. If you use the Verizon Cloud app, you have to download a file manager app (like ES File Explorer) and make it the default when prompted. Then Adobe will stop using the Verizon Cloud app. Otherwise, disable Verizon Cloud to keep this from happening.

Can you please tell me what version of Adobe Acrobat Pro is valid with my subscription?

I upgraded from Adobe CS5.5 Design Premium to CS6 Design and Web Premium. After the upgrade Adobe Acrobat Pro X stopped working. I downloaded and installed Adobe Acrobat Pro XI but only get a trial version and my CS6 Design and Web Premium Serial Number does not work.
Does anyone know?
Thanks....Jerry

Will Adobe Acrobat X Std work on an XP system?

I own Adobe Acrobat X Std for my desktop that runs Windows 7. My old laptop is running Windows XP.
Can I download X to my laptop without updating Acrobat 5? I have been loading updates for 2.5 hrs and it is still working! If Acrobat 5 cannot be upgraded directly to X Std. Can I remove it from the laptop and download the highest version that is compatible as I have been using and upgrading Adobe Acrobat for years, (I have been upgrading from version to version over the years).

Hi jjtexas,
Welcome to the Community!
Updating Acrobat 5 will not install Acrobat X as updates are for that particular version only. It has to be a new installation, yes Acrobat X standard is compatible to run on Windows XP with Service Pack 3 for 32 bit or Service Pack 2 for 64 bit.
Thanks!

Installing Existing Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro on new computer - The "Upgrade Check"

I recently purchased a new computer (Windows 8) to replace my old computer (Windows XP). I had purchased and installed Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 on the old computer in September 2009. At that time I had the serial number of the previous edition of Adobe Acrobat to load into the Upgrade Check screen when installing Acrobat 9. I just deactivated the Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 from the Windows XP machine and downloaded it to the Windows 8 machine and the install went well (still had the serial numbers for the Acrobat 9), until after the reboot when the "Upgrade Check" screen popped up. I don't have the slightest clue what the serial number for the previous version of Acrobat was, I don't even recall what version of Acrobat I had. How can I continue to install my Acrobat Pro 9? I have been using it successfully for three plus years!
Thanks.

If you no longer have the AA7 information, you will have to contact Adobe to determine the software key you had before to allow the installation. Hopefully you had registered your previous product or at least the installation.

Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan

Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan through Adobe, although Scanner says its combatible with Windows 8. Cannot reinstall drivers because Brother claims they're built-in. Help!

1. Re: Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan
Anubha Goel
I am using a Brother MFC 8460N and on Brother's site it says its compatible with win 8.1 and that the driver is already installed. When I try to scan I am told there is no preset (there was with win 7 though) and I have to "custom scan." When I try that, I hear a sound as if the printer is trying to scan, but the feeder can't pull the paper through. I then get a blank .pdf as my scan. Thanks for your advice. I will try that.
