Hi mikeb,
As per the issue description mentioned above, you are unable to convert pdf to word as you are getting no internet connection error, is that correct?
As we have checked the account details using the email address you are logged into the forums, you have a subscription for Export PDF.
Could you check if an update is available for Reader using "Check for updates" option under "Help" menu, You may also download updates from here: Adobe software and product updates
Reboot the machine after installing update and try again.
If that doesn't work, try the troubleshooting steps given in the following help document:
