"No connection to Internet" after installing Acrobat Standard 2017

Hi,

I installed Acrobat standard 2017 on a Win7-PC by using a redemption code. The installation worked ok (I got a serial number, inserted it, finally it said "installation finished"). Also I opened an Adobe account.

When I tried to start the program for the first time, a window opened, which required the input of an Adobe ID. As soon as I click the "continue" button, a window opens which says "no internet connection or clock not set correctly". But I have internet connection and the system clock is correct.

How do I get around this? Thanks for help.

do you now have any adobe cc programs installed on your computer, (and check your hosts file to see if there's any adobe.com entry.)
