Has anyone figured out how to get the CD to work properly on a computer running adobe 7.0? Or is it just my lack of techno smarts?????

It appears the cd was set up for Adobe 3.

If you open Acrobat 7 and then click on open file and then go to the CD drive and click on the folder.

Then click on Program and then choose the folder you need and open it. Most of the files are marked but you may need to do a little searching to find the file you need.

Or you could copy the folders to your HD and then create a new CD with Acrobat 7 as the host (or maybe Macromedia not really sure).

sldan,

I've got the 129 DVD P/N P-2700-129-04, is this the one you're having trouble with? Generally, with the CD's or DVD's, MB used the then existing version of Acrobat Reader when the disks were written. Therefor, you've got to load the version of Acrobat that's preloaded on the cd first, not the newer version that you've probably got on your PC.

To get the CD's to run, try inserting the disk; right click my computer; click explore; check the screen for your cd drive and the MB file; right click the drive; click explore; look for Adobe file/folder on the CD; click folder; look for Adobe logo/icon; double click to open.

After this version of Acrobat opens, simply run the CD as normal and it should work. If it doesn't work, I've got a pdf help file from MB that goes into alot more trouble shooting if you're running XPSP2 or Win2000. Unfortunately, it's too large to post on the forum, but I can email it to you if the above instructions don't get you started. Send me a PM with your email address in that case. Good Luck

I could not run the 140 DVD with 7, it runs fine with 5 which is on the DVD. I also checked something about active content, so I dont get a IE Explorer warning every time. I also think on the DYI articles there is some info.
