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!

Will Adobe Acrobat 8.0 Standard Work With Adobe Reader 8.2.4?

Hello,
I have a question, but haven't found an answer to this yet.
Can anyone tell me please: Will Adobe Acrobat 8.0 Standard work with Adobe Reader 8.2.4?
I had Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Standard on my computer & it was working with Adobe Reader 8, but don't remember what the version it was.
I was using Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Standard to scan very old family pictures & documents & I realize that this version of Acrobat is outdated.
To make a long story short, my computer had crashed, so we built another computer & just replaced the hard drive. When I went to Adobe, I had to download the newer version of Reader 9.0 & it didn't work with Acrobat 6.0., so I removed Adobe Reader 9 & I found Adobe Reader 8.0 & have downloaded the patches, so now I have Adobe Reader 8.2.4 back on board.
Thank you.

Adobe doesn't recommend any version of Reader with any version of Acrobat on Windows. It will cause problems. It just is a matter of how and when. The problem has to do with shared resources causing conflicts. If you have Acrobat 8, you can update it to Acrobat 8.2.4. You must apply the updates sequentially.

Why will Adobe Acrobat not load PDF from my work website, but will load on other computers?

Why will Adobe Acrobat not load PDF from my work website, but will load on other computers? I have to log in to a website to get our orders, and we thought it was the website at first, but have since realized it is just my computer with this issue. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software and still it does not work.

You ask "why", but don't provide any information...
What is your operating system?
What is your web browser?
Are you asking about Adobe Reader or Acrobat?
What is your Reader / Acrobat version?
What exactly means "will not load"?

Error message "Adobe Acrobat has stopped working"

I just upgrade to Acrobat 9 Std. I am running windows vista. When I open Acrobat and try to create a PDF I receive a message "Adobe Acrobat has stopped working" then another one "Windos will close the program and notify you for a solution", What shoul I do ???????
Mauricio.

If you have not updated to the most current version, you might try that.

I have a user getting an error Adobe Acrobat has stopped working how do I resolve this?

Adobe Acrobat XI Pro
This happens at a variety of times. Sometimes while scanning sometimes while bookmarking sometimes while adding pages from a file.
What I have done is made sure the program was up to date, a repair install, updated scanner drivers, replace the scanner with a different model, made sure the workstation was current with MS patches. Any suggestions would be most welcome.
Thank you,
Brad

Thanks for the reply. Sorry I wasn't clear the version is XI standard. And I did check for updates. The program is current. Still a few times a day the program will crash and my user will have to start over again on the document she is working on. Very frustrating for her and me.
The full error is:
Adobe Acrobat has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

Adobe Acrobat XI Pro causes an error when starting it - Adobe Acrobat has stopped working. How do I resolve this?

I've had Adobe Acrobat XI Pro for some time, but yesterday it stopped working and I started having an 'Adobe Acrobat has stopped working' error. It then tells me to Close the Program.
How do I resolve this?
Thanks and regards
Roxanne

Thanks Pat. I was able to resolve the problem.
OS is Windows 7 Pro, Adobe Acrobat Pro 11.0.07.
I went into the Properties file where I identified that Users only had Read & Execute and Read properties, I changed properties for Everyone to Full Control. That fixed the problem.
I don't know how the properties got changed to just Read & Execute, but there had been an automatic update the night before.

I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create pdf from scanner, it displays an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is there any way I can use this functionality?

I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create>pdf from scanner, it displays an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is there any way I can use this functionality?

Provide you have Acrobat 9 installed in an OS for which Acrobat 9 is compatible then you can use the functionality.
As well, you need a scanner connected, powered up, and the software installed. Acrobat 9 "prefers" TWAIN drivers.
Always visit the scanner vendor's site and download - install the latest greatest software.
n.b., The Acrobat 9.x product family passed into "End of Support" mid-year 2013.
As well the Acrobat 9.x product family is not compatible with contemporary OSs.
Be well...

Multiple shortcut toolbars in Adobe Acrobat x std

I'm looking for a way to have multiple shortcut toolbar lines in Adobe Acrobat X std. I don't like the drop down tool bar that is present. I use multiple addins in my toolbar and I want to see them all up in the toolbar for easy use. Is there a way to add multiple lines of toolbars instead of having the drop down overflow box?

You'll want to ask in the forum for Acrobat. This one is for the free Reader which cannot do any of this.
But to get you started, you can use Document>Extract pages to create a new file of the modified pages...

I am on a Windows 7 OS attempting to reduce pdf size with my Adobe Acrobat Standard XI & Pro. The application keeps timing out and at the Subsetting embedded fonts portion and the application gives "Adobe Acrobat has stopped working" and then closes. The document is 275 pages. Is there something I can do to stop this?

Hi Ricci,
Since when are you facing this issue? Did you tried system restore to a date before this problem occured.
Does acrobat stop working when you open this specific pdf file or with any pdf file that you open?

Will Adobe indesign cs6 books work with the adobe indesign creative cloud version?

Will Adobe indesign cs6 books work with the adobe indesign creative cloud version? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think, this question is a very good one.
If I have a *.indb document created in CS6, populated with InDesign documents from CS6, what to do, if I want to migrate my workflow to the latest version of InDesign CC-2014?
Short answer (avoiding trouble and headaches):
1. Convert all your InDesign documents from CS6 to CC-2014 (*)
2. Use NEW document file names for all your CC-2014 InDesign file types: *indd, *indt, *indl
3. Build your *indb documents for CC-2014 anew.
4. Use NEW document file names for CC-2014 InDesign file type: *indb
But isn't that a tedious task to do?
Yes. But fortunately there are some scripts around helping you with the conversion process.
See Peter Kahrel's website. Especially:
Free script Batch convert/export InDesign documents | Peter Kahrel
There are others as well…
Uwe
*Before migration of the workflow batch export all InDesign CS6 documents to IDML and PDF.

When will the ACROBAT PDF function work again for Office 2011 for MAC and PC?

HELP!!!!
Adobe Tech support suggested I submit my comment to this post in hopes that this will help resolve the issues. I feel for them having to field these calls.
I can no longer convert Excel, Word and Powerpoints to PDF. If our company converts one Office doc to PDF a day, we do at least 50 conversions to PDF. Since the 9.4.2 update, the PDF feature does not work on MAC...and since the 9.4.4 update it no longer works on a WIN system.
We have Acrobat 9 on all the MACs and PCs in the office. We downloaded Acrobat X to test it out when it first launched. Other than some nice bells and whistles with the convenient interface and new enhancements to the Portfolio feature, Acrobat X still does not do the basic function Acrobat was designed to do....convert to a PDF.
We began converting PDF's on the WIN systems because the file size and object data handling on MAC had become difficulty over the past year (lost fonts, file size bloated, etc). Now, nothing works on either system.
Last year Adobe and Microsoft Office suggested we upgrade to CS5 and the new OFFICE to fix the problems. MAC remains closed box which is why the system is so clean, but poses a real challenge when running non MAC software. Now Adobe advises that Acrobat only works on the previous version of Office (?), but not 2007 and that they are not compatible with the new office even thought it worked just a few weeks or so ago. Unfortunately, we have used some of the new features in the new Office and now are being asked to go back a step.
OFFICE automatically turns on your 90 day free tech support now when you call in to tell them PDF doesn't work. They feel they are giving YOU tech support. Last year, the Microsoft Office group advised that once they hand off to the PDF processor, that function is all Adobe. And it seems that Apple has their own Quark processor running scripts in between the two functions which is why the PDF file sizes are bloating on MACs.
The Adobe Acrobat engineers at AdobeMAX suggested to run Paralells or VMware on MAC in order to convert files to PDF properly/small size (which is what they say they do to get around the object data and bloating issues internally on their own MACs).
I know so many colleagues now who just run dual systems (WIN/MAC) so they can realize the full function of the Adobe software. It is not convenient when traveling or cost efficient for small businesses, but that is what we had to do to get our jobs done. I "HAD" a couple of the most incredible PDFing maching in my office until about a week ago...a $4k mega WIN System raided, 2 SDDs, 2 1TB HDDs, major video card, etc....and they are sitting lonely because PDF doesn't work anymore. But goodness, how fast it converted things to PDF.
Is there another patch coming imminenty to fix this issue?
I don't really care if there is a 32 bit or 64 bit issue. Customers pay premium price for the software which boasted 64 bit, etc and it should work as advertised. I ponder, are all my macs 64bit now??? They still don't work either. Customers depend on the software to do even the most basic functions in daily business and should not have to spend hours on the phone trying to figure out a problem that has nothing to do with them or a workaround because their investment did not work as advertised (and has genereally worked for years)....
One click of the button should be all that is necessary to make a PDF and make people everywhere happy when they need to send a secure output of their huge powerpoint to a customer to get business or their child's project for school that morning.
Is there a software war going on between the companies?
Are they rushing to market too quickly?
Do the companies thoroughly test the patches before running the updates?
Are there not enough API's or "hooks" allowing companies to make their products work with the different hardware, firmware, etc?
I don't really care what the internal issues are. Just fix it! The software should work as it is marketed (including the platform) and these companies need to get together and make it work (if that is the case) so their loyal customers can get their jobs done enabling them to purchase the next version of software that is suppose to be better than the last for their work.
Posted Respectfully and with hope this issue will be resolved promptly!

Mr. Jones,
You are a real lifesaver!!!
It worked on the Mac. Will have to do some searches to find the same on the PC since the same is happening.
Do you happen to know why Adobe is saying they are not compatible with Office 2011 now? I found a link on the Adobe webite along those lines yesterday, but was not able to find it this morning to insert into this post.
Our CEO had a real meltdown at about 2am the other morning when trying to pdf something for a meeting the next day. Was not very pretty.
THANK YOU!!!

Which Version of Adobe Acrobat Pro Wiil Work?

Hi;
I've got a flat-panel iMac running OS 10.3.9 and I need to get Adobe Acrobat Pro. Which version will work with my configuration and where could I find it? I tried the Adobe site and got nowhere.
Thanks!

Hello again, Cornelius:
I found a source to obtain an OEM version of Acrobat Pro 8. I'm wondering if you think it would be good (the price is certainly right!):
