Adobe Reader Update For Mac

Adobe Systems has announced the release of Adobe Reader 8, the latest major release of their free Portable Document Format (PDF) readers software for Mac OS X and Windows.

First, let's look at how to download Adobe Reader (macOS 10.15) on Chrome, the world's most popular web browser, followed by Safari and then Firefox. On your Mac, open up a Chrome window or a new tab and go to the official Adobe download page for the Reader app for Mac. On this page, you'll see a download link along with the size of the download.
Download free Acrobat Reader DC software, the only PDF viewer that lets you read, search, print, and interact with virtually any type of PDF file. Speed business processes and let employees work anywhere with all-new Adobe Acrobat DC products and Adobe Document Cloud.

Adobe Reader for Mac includes a feature that allows you to print the document in question directly on the interface. With Adobe Reader for Mac, you can sign a PDF document that is not protected. This program comes with a user-friendly interface making it easy to handle. The program is completely free and widely used all around the globe.

New features in Adobe Reader 8 include support for Adobe Acrobat Connect, an online collaboration service that works using Flash. A new streamlined interface features user-customizable toolbars, and Reader users can fill and submit forms, save data and digitally sign documents. The software also features graphics acceleration on supported systems.

It’s the first Intel-native version of Adobe Reader to be released. It’s worth noting that the Intel-optimized version is a separate download from its PowerPC counterpart, which may cause some confusion for Mac users and IT personnel who have grown accustomed to Universal binaries, which combine PowerPC and Intel optimizations into a single application.

Adobe Reader 8 is available in English, French, German and Japanese versions. Chinese and Korean releases are coming in early 2007. Available for Mac OS X and windows, Adobe Reader 8 is also coming for Linux, HP/UX, AIX and Solaris operating systems in 2007.

System requirements call for a G3 or better processor, Mac OS X v10.4.3 or later, 128MB RAM, 110MB hard disk drive space and Apple Safari 2.0.2.

You receive an error when trying to update Acrobat or Reader.

Installing Adobe Reader DC is a two-step process. First, you download the installation package, and then you install Reader from that package file. You don't have to remove the older version of Reader if you are installing Reader. For step-by-step installation instructions, see Install Adobe Acrobat Reader DC | Mac OS.

Uninstall Acrobat DC or older versions of Reader

Acrobat Reader

There is no uninstaller for Reader in Mac. You can directly delete the application from the Applications folder.

Acrobat DC

Choose Applications > Adobe Acrobat DC, select the Acrobat DC Uninstaller, and double-click it.
Follow the onscreen instructions to uninstall Acrobat.
In the Authenticate dialog box, type the macOS user name and password for an administrator account and click OK.
In case you do not remember your password, refer the Apple document: https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT202860.
The uninstaller removes only Adobe Acrobat files from the system. It does not remove Acrobat Reader files, Acrobat user data, or files that are shared with other Adobe applications.

Do one of the followings to reinstall your application:

Reader: Go to the Adobe Reader Downloads page and click Install Now.
Refer the article Install Adobe Acrobat Reader DC | Mac OS for detailed instructions.
To install older versions of Reader, refer: Install an older version of Adobe Reader on Mac OS.
Acrobat: Download Acrobat from the Acrobat downloads page. Click the installer to start the installation process.

Start Reader or Acrobat, and choose Help > Check For Updates to install the latest update to your product.

This solution works best for error 1301 but can be used to troubleshoot other updater error conditions. For instructions, see Enabling and using the 'root' user in Mac OS X on the Apple website.

After enabling the root user account, log in to the root user account and retry updating Acrobat or Reader.

Solution 3. Update Acrobat Reader and Adobe Acrobat manually

Installers for all supported products also appear on the product download pages (except for the full Acrobat). You can download and manually install these products as follows:

Open the product.
Choose Help > About Acrobat or Acrobat Reader.
Note the version.
Close the product.
If you do not have the latest version installed, download the needed installer from the following locations:
