I'm on mac 12.5 and when i tried to download it, it got to like the last step but now its just frozen and i cant stop the download. I am not able to download it again because it says that there is already another installation taking place.

Hi @Trish25847916lxi5,

 

I hope you are doing well. Sorry for the trouble.

 

Since the installation is stuck, try the below steps:

1. Restart the computer;

2. Please run the Acrobat cleaner tool https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/Labs/cleaner.html.  to remove any traces of the previously failed/stuck installer;

3. Download the offline installer from here: Adobe - Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Download | Free PDF viewer for Windows, Mac OS, Android

4. Once downloaded, try to install the newly downloaded file.

 

I hope this helps.
