Hi,

I have an Adobe Acrobat 8 profesional, that i bought in 2008. I had installed in a old computer. I have dessinstalled from the old computer, but now I want to install in the new computer. The installation is ok, but when i try to activate by internet the program tell me that is not possible. I tried to activate by phone, I have the serial number and an activation number, but the phone numbers to activate in Spain don't work.

Could you help me how to activate this product?

Thanks

acrobat 8 can no longer be activated.  there's nothing you can do beyond the 30 day trial unless you're willing to make significant effort.

Did you deactivate the previous installation or just uninstall? Deactivation of the old product is required to re-activate the license on a new computer.
