Hi,

Please Download Adobe Acrobat products | 9, 8

Install it and activate using the serial number.

Please refer to the help document below:

In case of the volume license product, please refer: Adobe Licensing Website | Serial numbers | Orders | Accounts

I have the  same problem but I have the disk. I installed it on my new laptop but how do I deactivate a previous install on the old laptop that  crashed?

You can't, but Adobe can do it for you. You'll need to contact them directly and ask they reset the activation counter for your serial-number.

... and the only way that will work is if you call the 1 (800) 833-6687 and absolutely bitch them out for not providing any other way to deactivate.
