Howdy,


Tried to install Acrobat Reader DC on my MacBook. OS X 10.10.4


Installation was immediately interrupted by this message:

Any help would be appreciated

Hi Ned,.

You have any Adobe application installed on your system, if so please check the permissions for the folder ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe (where ~ indicates your user directory).

Select the Adobe folder, right-click and choose "Get Info" from the menu, expand the sharing tab and Permissions at the bottom of the window and check that your user account has the permissions read & write.

If it doesn't matter what previous version of Adobe Reader is installed, uninstall it completely, restart your system & try to install Adobe acrobat reader Adobe - Adobe Acrobat Reader Distribution DCDC.

Let me know how it goes.

Kind regards

Nicos

    The usual advice when a computer has been infected after that connect to the Internet with no antivirus application is to do a clean installation of Windows.

    Computers Dell come with a mechanism to restore the computer to its costs-Dell-State.  I don't know if that's what you mean by 'Attempt to find and run the PC recovery', but you will find the information here:http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/dsn/en/document?docid=181316

    If you follow the advice of Dell to backup your data before you run the restore program (and that you are able to do), do NOT restore these data before (a) install an antivirus on the restored computer application and (b) using the application antivirus to analyze the data before you restore.  If you have data that you do not want to lose, but you can not run the backup offered by Dell, there are always methods to get your data off.  Select if you want instructions for it.

    If you can, return McAfee Total Protection for a refund.  If you can not get a refund, write off the expense as a learning experience.  Once your computer has been restored, installNOD32 Antivirus 4 (not the "suite") from ESET.com if you want a commercial product.  If you do not want to pay, installMicrosoft Security Essentialsor Avast! antivirus .  In more than one of these 3 antivirus applications, download and install these two applications free anti-malware: Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and SUPERAntiSpyware .

    Hi judithl34724699,

    If you want to convert Word files to PDF with the Adobe Reader application then it is possible with the service Pack of PDF. Try to use the service on the web: https://cloud.acrobat.com/convertpdf

    Also try to use a different file type.

  • Add ESX server assessment to VC with error: there is not enough license installed to run the operation.

    Hi all:

    I added two esx servers in my vc received the error: there is not enough licnese installed to run the operation.

    There are some servers esx with correct license file in VI3.5U3 in my environment. I want to add more than two servers esx with evaluation mode in this virtual Center. I got error.

    connection to the esx server directly without vc, to feature license tab, I selected evaluation mode is ok. but I can't added these in vc. Why?

    can someone help out me.

    Thank you very much.

    hihiy

    I don't think you can, you need to turn your TC to eval too, and before we do, your VC should not exceeded calclation eval of 60 days from the first day, it has been installed.

    BTW, since you have valid VC 2.5 license, and is not the Foundation of VC, why don't you showing your ESX with eval license server to license? Add then the two ESX to your existing VC?

  • 'There are not enough licenses installed to perform the operation.' windows server 2003 you want to host Suse

    Hey.

    Have installed VMware Server on my windows server 2003 64-bit want to give it a go...

    The server itself is a Dell Vostro 410 with a Quad Core cpu and 8 GB of ram.

    Im getting the error "There are not enough licenses installed to run the operation." after passing by the web wizard and make a virtual machine and try to start.

    When I click on the link ' power on ' this message appears as the error immediately detailed.

    The server runs a student version of windows serv licensed 2003 (if that makes a diff).

    I want to install Suse Linux 32

    By Googling I found im not the only one getting this error, but I couldent find all the solutions related to this and not of ESXi.

    Hope, one of the yall know what happens

  • Why I get that there are not enough licenses installed to perform the operation?

    I have three servers that I fight with the chance to talk to an hp 1510i, but it's a different test. I have rebuilt the three servers 2 and now when I try to add them to the virtual Center 2.5.0 I get "There not enough licenses installed to perform the operation." These machines were on Virtual Centre before I rebuilt the. I don't understand why licensing is not be happy. Can someone give me advice on how to fix?

    Let me know if you need more information.

    Thank you

    Ken

    Your image shows 0 licenses for virtual center agent, that's why you can't add.  Check your hosts and see which servers are using what licenses.  A reboot must have cleared out the number of licenses, which must have caused the hosts re - synchronize the license info, which they periodically anyway.  This may take some time, depending on your host is on the refresh interval.  Make sure you do not have more than 6 ESX host, because that's what you are licensed.  If this is not correct, check your license file is not the correct information.  You can always go online to the portal of licenses and generate a new.

  • Failure of the installation of Adobe reader. not enough space permissions

    I try to install Adobe Reader DC to my Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.3, and when I try to complete the installation, the message 'failed to install. permissions insufficient disk space"appears.

    I fixed the permissions, activated Java Script is enabled, etc.. I don't know what else to do. Maybe I deleted something accidentally when I went to uninstall a previous version. But I don't think that's the problem.
