Uninstall Acrobat 9.0.0 Pro from Mac OS

I have just upgraded my OS to Mavericks, which doesn't work with Acrobat 9 Pro, so I've purchased Acrobat XI and installed it. Now I can't get rid of Acrobat 9 Pro. The uninstaller in that folder doesn't work. When I try to open it, the uninstaller that came with Acrobat XI opens instead and can't "see" the Acrobat 9 folder or app so I can't use it to uninstall 9.

If I need to do a manual uninstall, what files other than the ones in the Acrobat 9 Pro folder in the Applications folder do I need to remove?

Hi Carolyn,

Please check the doc: http://www.project-insomnia.com/wp/2009/07/22/manually-uninstalling-adobe-acrobat-reader-9-on-mac-os-x-leopard/

You might want to uninstall Acrobat 11 first and then manually remove Acrobat 9 files as you might inadvertently remove Acrobat 11 files while trying to manually remove Acrobat 9 files.

Both the application share the same folders to save the files and related preferences.
