Adobe Acrobat/Reader 9
Help! I've recently purchased a new Dell...Windows Vista Home Premium-Microsoft Office Small Business 2007. I have downloaded Adobe Acrobat/Reader 9 several times...when I attempt to read an Adobe doc on-line I receive the following message "Adobe Acrobat/Reader Version 8 or 9 is required. Please exit and try again. I am a novice...I'm sure there's a simple explanation...but what is it! Thanks.

Welcome to the forums :emotion-21:
I don't know why it's suggesting you need version 8 or 9 installed, when you've just installed version 9?
But while you're waiting for suggestions, try opening the PDF files in FoxIt Reader (which is FREE)?

This just happened to me too. I keep downloading Adobe and it still did not work. I finally got it solved a few minutes ago.
Go to My Computer, Drive C, find your program files, you should have one for Adobe, click on it. Look for Adobe 8 or 9 whichever, click on it. Find the Setup exe. file and click on it. Mine asked me if I wanted to fix or repair install program, I said yes, it ran through the program and it must have fixed whatever wrong was the problem and now it works.
Hope this helped, let me know if I did some good today.
Regards.
